Chapter 294: War!
Everyone hurried all the way, avoiding the big trees, avoiding the mountains, avoiding all the possibilities that could lead the mines, although they could not fly, but they could not be much slower with their legs, and they ran out of hundreds of miles in less than two hours.
The sun rises in the east and rains in the west, and the road is sunny but sunny.
At this point, the rain gradually became lighter.
In fact, the rain is not small, but the dark cloud has been left behind them.
"Listen to all! Out of the sword, keep flying low, destination Pyongyang, go! ”
Without the threat of thunder, of course, I won't bother my legs so hard, otherwise, when I get to the bottom of my head, I'm afraid that the daylily will really be bright!
So Bai He gave an order, and Ben dang flew out first.
"Boss, you seem to have gone wrong, it's Liaobei over there!" I don't know who shouted.
Bai He went around in a circle, and then flew back, then patted the man's shoulder, and said without changing his face: "I know that it is Liaobei over there, I just want to test your sense of direction." Now it looks like it's not bad! So...... Let's go! ”
"Wow......"
Everyone looked sideways, and there was no one who could say that the road idiot was so reasonable, and there was no one with the cheekiness of the leader.
There was no more to say at the moment, two yellow orioles sang green willows, and a line of flying swords went to the sky.
On the other side, the city of Pyongyang.
"Zimo has passed the spring breeze and drizzle, and the light dust does not move and the willow silk is slanted.
The green window Zhu Husheng sang, all of which were the disciples of the pear garden. ”
This is a poem sent to Pyongyang by the famous Goryeo poet Jung Ji-chang. Of course, this is a person from the Goryeo period, and he was not born at this time. However, Rao is like this, and the charm of this ancient city can also be seen from the side.
Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty sent sailors to attack Pyongyang, but was repulsed, and later Emperor Taizong of the former dynasty made three expeditions to Gao (sentence) Li, which greatly damaged its vitality, and set up the Andong Protectorate in Pyongyang, so far, Pyongyang has become a sacred and inalienable part of China.
Pyongyang is located in the northwestern part of the Korean Peninsula and is straddled by the Taedong River, so named for its flat terrain.
It is the town of Goguryeo in the north and the Silla Baekje in the south, firmly holding the throat of the Korean Peninsula, and its importance is self-evident. And now, it has once again become the focus of attention of the people of the Great Zhou.
A sudden raid, an unexpected master of the island country, made the word "Pyongyang" a shame for the people of the Great Zhou.
Shame is washed only in blood.
Although Bai He has been in Liaodong City for these days, there are many things that he has been kept in the dark mainly because he doesn't bother to ask about them.
In order to recover Pyongyang, in addition to the 30,000 troops of Liaodong County marching from the northwest of Pyongyang, the Great Zhou Naval Division had already sent 20,000 troops, starting from Wendeng, Penglai, Yantai and other places, crossing the sea area, landing at Changkou, and then swimming up to block the southwest of Pyongyang.
Silla and Baekje were ordered by the "God of the Heavenly Empire" to send 20,000 troops at the same time to launch an encirclement from the southeast.
Today's Pyongyang, in a word: 100,000 troops, soldiers are coming to the city.
Of course, 100,000 is just an approximation.
It's like when Cao Cao waved his troops south, claiming to be a million-strong army, but in fact, he ......
Hehe.
To be reasonable, after Miyamoto Musashi led his troops to occupy Pyongyang, even if Goryeo had urgently sent 50,000 troops to garrison Pyongyang, it was too exaggerated to dispatch such a lineup in Dazhou now.
At this time, I saw that on the battlefield, the beacon smoke and thunder, the flags were inspired, and the 100,000 troops were in the east and west, and as far as the eye could see, there were dense human heads, and the city of Pyongyang was wrapped in dumplings, leaving only the northeast corner.
The art of war is cloudy, and the encirclement of three is missing one, which can disintegrate the enemy's will to a certain extent, so as not to jump over the wall in a hurry.
At this moment, the two sides are facing each other.
Of course, the people inside wanted to kill it, but they didn't dare. And the Great Zhou army outside wanted to rush in, but they threw a rat trap.
Because in the city of Pyongyang, there were not only 50,000 Goryeo troops, but also many prisoners.
Those were all soldiers who were captured by the Goryeo army on the day of the fall of Andong Metropolitan Protectorate.
The knives of the Great Zhou people can cut down all the people in the world, but they only don't cut their own people, and of course it is impossible to watch their own people being hacked to death.
Because of this, the captives in Pyongyang were used as bargaining chips by Goryeo, and the Great Zhou was asked to withdraw his troops.
Of course, Da Zhou will not retreat.
If they wanted to retreat, they would not have sent so many troops and horses in the first place, so they just surrounded, confronted, negotiated, and offered generous conditions, promising that as long as the Goryeo army withdrew from Pyongyang immediately and did not hurt the people in the city, they could leave them a way to live.
However, everyone knows that this is nonsense.
First, if Goryeo wants to retreat, he can only go to the northeast and retreat to their old nest. And the Liaodong Army, which has reoccupied Pyongyang, can rely on the geographical advantage, attack, retreat and defend, and wait until it regroups and makes a comeback, and in the end, it still has to kill Goryeo? By then, the lineup will only get bigger.
100,000, 200,000, 300,000 or even more are possible.
Second, the Koreans are not without Miyamoto Musashi.
They know better than anyone that as long as Li Bai doesn't make a move, Miyamoto Musashi is an invincible existence, and no matter how many troops there are, it will be useless for him. And they know even more that because of the existence of law suppression, Li Bai can't stay here for too long.
So it was consumed.
So everyone can only consume like this, and the situation seems to be at an impasse.
However, in the evening......
Countless torches spread throughout the military camp of Goryeo. The firelight of dozens of miles is extraordinarily spectacular. At this time, a group of figures suddenly flew up on the side of the Liaodong Army.
They are all monks cultivated in the Great Zhou Army, and their realm is not very high, most of them are in the foundation building period or even Qi refining, and it is already very reluctant to be able to control the sword, and there are only a few dozens of Ning Yuan periods, which are at least small generals at the centurion level.
But there are a lot of them.
One, two, three, four, five...... Roughly speaking, there are as many as 3,000.
In the Liaodong Army, almost all those who could fly flew at this time.
At this time, the 50,000 flying swords that the Holy Queen had strictly ordered to be created within a time limit of two months were finally put to great use.
Three thousand flying swords, three thousand cultivators. No one would have expected that just one Liaodong Army would already hide such a powerful combat power.
No matter how bright the fire was, it was impossible to illuminate the night sky above 100 meters, so under the cover of night, the three thousand monks soon reached the sky above the Goryeo army, and then ......
Woo!
Something seems to have fallen......
It was hanging from under the hilt of the flying sword, and it looked like ripe black grapes, bunches after bunches. If Shirakawa was here, then he would definitely recognize what this thing was thunder!
That's right!
The "black grapes" that fell down were the thunder he made up at the beginning!
On the same day, Bai He offered this thunder to the Holy Queen as if he were offering treasures, but he only received an evaluation of "unbearable use", and he never asked again.
However, just because he didn't ask didn't mean the matter was over. Under the background that Bai He didn't know, the Holy Queen didn't know how many arrangements she had made for the "three-year oath", and the flying sword was one of them.
This thunderstorm is also one of them.
And now, they're all shining together.
I saw the monks pluck a black grape from under the hilt of their swords...... cough, thunder, and then silently took out the fire fold lightly. Hiss...... The gunpowder primer mixed with the twisted cotton of the fire spirit ignites instantly.
Then the monk let go of his hand......
Woo......
A ......
Two ......
Three ......
Three thousand!
In the first round of bombing, 3,000 thunderbolts fell like raindrops.
To be reasonable, in fact, the Goryeo army should not have lit so many torches. Fireflies in the dark night are the best targets, and the monks don't even save the process of aiming, and just throw them down.
Boom! Boom, boom, boom, boom......!
The earth shook with a series of explosions. The Goryeo military camp, which was already lit up by torches, was lit up with countless fires in an instant. In the night, I saw the peach blossoms blooming all over the sky, which looked extraordinarily gorgeous.
However, behind the splendor, there is the bloom of flesh and blood.
"Raid the camp!"
"The enemy is attacking the camp!"
"What?! Where are they ......"
"I don't know ......"
Rumble!
"Ahh
I have to say that in this era, although there have already been cultivators who can fly into the sky, the tactic of aerial bombing is definitely an epoch-making achievement.
Almost just a few breaths away, the camp of the Goryeo army was already full of fire.
The explosions around were incessant, and most of the soldiers were already torn apart in the explosion before they could figure out what was happening.
At the beginning, Bai He only put forward such an idea, saying that if things like iron pieces and iron nails were added to the thunder, it would increase its power by more than several times, but the Holy Queen directly made this idea a reality.
As soon as such a thunderstorm exploded, the scene was simply ......
If you think about what it is like to blow up cow dung with firecrackers, you can know it, absolutely vivid.
Some of those bombs fell on the barracks, and some fell on the crowd, and the flames and shrapnel from the flowering shells were extremely lethal.
Soon, those who woke up rushed out of the tents and barracks, and then ...... I could only run around the camp helplessly and shouting.
Because they don't know where the enemy is coming from, and they want to defend against it, and they don't know where to start defending it, let alone counterattacking it?
Boom Boom!
A second round of bombardment followed.
In the sky, the three thousand monks continued to advance, strengthening the depth, flying all the way and dropping bombs all the way. It looks a bit like Santa Claus giving gifts in the anime.
However, absolutely no one will like this kind of gift.
At that moment, I saw explosions, shouts, screams, and screams in the camp.
As far as the eye can see, there are either dead or wounded. Those who are already dead are quiet, and those who are not dead are busy recovering their arms and thighs.
The air is filled with the rich smell of gunsmoke and the faint smell of barbecue......
And those who were lucky enough not to die or be injured are screaming, screaming, and running blindly. But what awaits them is more thunder falling from the sky.
So the screams became louder.
"Damn it!"
"Heavenly!"
"Destroy them!"
Although the Koreans "borrowed" the Xiuzhen system of the Great Zhou, they were not all from rice buckets, and someone finally discovered the enemy in the sky.
"Heavenly!!"
"They !! in Heaven"
With a burst of shouts, more and more people raised their heads and saw the three thousand locust-like Great Zhou cultivators in the sky, and a stirring suddenly felt in their hearts: "So many! ”
But shock is shock, and since the enemy has been discovered, it is sure that it will be fought back.
Thereupon......
Sou......
Whoosh!
When the third round of bombardment arrived, countless arrows flew into the sky.
Unfortunately, it had little effect.
Due to the existence of gravity, bottom-up shooting is already difficult to reach a height of 100 meters, and occasionally there are elite archers who have enough range, but the accuracy is a little worse, even if there are a few who are even accurate enough, but the power is a little worse, and even the true element of people's body protection can't be broken......
Such a counterattack is simply better than nothing.
They can't do anything but waste their physical strength and arrows, and instead hinder their own people who want to fly head-on.
Boom Boom Boom ......
The bombing continued.
There are a lot of thunderbolts prepared by the Holy Queen, anyway, that thing is grown from the soil, and the growth cycle is still short, and it is a waste to put it away, so there is no need to use it in vain.
So, the bombing at this time also lasted for a long time. Cultivators are like diligent farmers, going back and forth from one end of the camp to the other, ploughing back and forth several times.
The Goryeo army was helpless.
The Goryeo army was desperate.
They are not afraid of war, they have the courage to provoke Da Zhou, and they are ready to fight or even sacrifice. But they can only be beaten and can't fight back...... It's not a war at all!
This is a one-sided massacre!
Thereupon......
They just bombed the camp directly.
The so-called bombing camp is not bombing the camp, but ......
Seeing tents and barracks engulfed in flames, the soldiers crowded around the camp and ran back and forth, not knowing where they were going.
Survival**, let them have only one thought in their minds: run!
But where to run?
I don't know!
Anyway, just run!
What will happen if tens of thousands of people run aimlessly together?
Step on!
Massive stampede.
Panic and fear permeated every corner of the battlefield, and the soldiers were running around with their heads in their hands, as for whether they were stepping on the earth or the bodies of their comrades, they couldn't care so much, they ran out of this hell on earth first.
"Calm down! Calm down! ”
"Kill the panicked!"
"Kill the blind runner!"
"Kill those who disturb the morale of the army!"
There were generals in the army who shouted loudly, and the thick realm made their voices easily spread to every corner of the barracks, and also resounded in the night sky, but it was useless.
The chaos has become a reality, and there is no strength to return to the sky.
"Wow! Fortunately, I walked two steps faster, and I almost missed the show! When Baekha arrived outside Pyongyang, he happened to see this wonderful scene, and there was a sense of déjà vu at the scene of a war blockbuster.
This is war.
War is to kill people, and he has long had such an awareness, so the mentality of the Holy Mother of the Virgin such as "born from the same root, why not be too anxious to fry each other" does not exist for him.
