"Chief, this Baekje soldier is too wasteful, and there is no city that can withstand our attack for a day." Liu Renyuan looked at another city being beaten down from afar, and turned his head and smiled at Wu Yuanqing.

"What, do you really want the people of Baekje to be more powerful and hold out for a few more days, so that more of my Datang soldiers will die?" Wu Yuanqing glared fiercely at Liu Renyuan, who couldn't speak.

"Don't, don't give me a hat, my subordinates can't afford this crime." Liu Renyuan hurriedly smiled and waved his hand.

"However, the Baekje soldiers are really waste. But the garbage is good, I like them garbage." Wu Yuanqing didn't pay attention to Liu Renyuan anymore, looked up at the cheering Tang soldiers and said with satisfaction.

"Chief, tomorrow after we take Siyu City, should we continue to fight in depth or go north to join Liu Renliang and them." Liu Ren asked happily.

"No, let's go to sea and return to the division to meet with the chief manager of Weichi, as for the Han River and the Xiongjin River here, they are all broken, so leave it to the Silla people to continue to clean up, we can't fight down and let them pick up the cheap." Wu Yuanqing said lightly.

"Oh, that's cheap Silla then." Liu Renyuan said a little unwillingly.

"Hehe, the cheap is temporary, and we will come back and kill Silla after we destroy Goguryeo. It's better to fight one Silla than to fight Baekje and two Silla families." Wu Yuanqing said with a sneer.

"Haha, that's right, the chief manager is wise." Liu Ren is willing to smile like a flower.

"Catapult ready, put."

"Archers ready, put."

"The ballista bed is ready, put."

Si Yu City.

The national capital of Baekje.

Under the city of the Tang Dynasty's 5,000 soldiers and horses, dozens of catapults threw dozens of catties and hundreds of catties of huge stones to the head of the city and the city.

The Si Yu city wall smashed out of one big pit after another, the inner city buildings next to the city wall all suffered, a stone down is a bang collapsing, smashed on the roof of the good point, the most terrible is smashed on the ground, under the action of huge inertia, the boulder will bounce up again and then roll all the way out of a passage, but anyone who blocks the way forward of the stone, whether it is a person, or confiscated debris is the end of broken bones.

The soldiers and people who defended the city on the city wall were even more miserable, and the stone hit the body directly into a puddle of rotten meat.

Although the catapult is destructive, it is the narrow line on the way forward that is the most dangerous.

The most frightening thing is that the Tang archers and crossbow beds guarding the city are all rockets wrapped in cloth strips and stained with fire oil, which are shot in the city and fall to the ground, but if they fall on the house, they will soon be on fire.

The small half of the city next to the city wall was in flames, and the air seemed to be burning, and all kinds of air currents and cyclones could be seen distorted.

The people in the city stopped helping the officers and soldiers to defend the city, and they all ran to put out the fire.

In fact, it is the same whether they help defend the city or not, because even if they help defend the city, they have no chance to raise their heads at all.

The archers of the Tang Dynasty, the crossbow beds are all under the city, and the Baekje soldiers on the city wall can easily shoot bows and arrows into the archers and crossbow beds under the city.

But they didn't dare to get up, because once they dared to show their heads, the hundreds of Tang warships moored on the Xiongjin River not far outside the city would sound earth-shattering thunderbolts, and then the dark cannonballs in the sky would fall on their heads.

"Governor, Sihyun City is worthy of being the capital of Baekje, it is strong enough, and the soldiers and horses defending the city are also very tenacious, and they have not been able to beat it down since the morning, and no one has escaped from the three gates left for them." Liu Ren put down the binoculars and said.

"Crow's mouth, it's all your fault for what you said yesterday about the Baekje people's rubbish, now it's okay, it must be the head of the family who heard it, so I'm going to prove here that they're not rubbish." Wu Yuanqing said angrily.

"Boss, can I be blamed for this?" Liu Renyuan was dumbfounded.

Since the Tang Dynasty set foot on the land of Baekje, it has been a smooth sailing, and there is no place to stop the pace of the Tang Sailors, which also makes the Sailors very complacent, and as a result, under the Sihyun City, the Baekje people gave them a slap in the face.

The attack launched in the morning was still the same as before, first covered by artillery fire, and then waited for the people in the city to rush and run when the city was running away, and the landed Tang army successfully took the city after a while.

In the past, this kind of work was very useful, but after the artillery fire covered and poured out today, there was not much chaos in Sixian City, and there was no movement in the three city gates that were released.

On the contrary, the landed Tang army leaned a little closer to the city wall, and was wounded by a round of arrows fired by the Baekje archers on the city wall.

Then, the two sides were at a stalemate.

The soldiers and horses of the Tang Navy Division are still too few, Liu Renliang left 10,000 people, and Wu Yuanqing only had 10,000 left.

It is quite difficult for 10,000 people to attack the city, let alone attack the capital of Baekje, Sihyun Fortress.

Not to mention whether the city wall is strong or not, the key is that there are a lot of defenders here, and although there are many cities that have been conquered all the way before, there are actually not many Baekje soldiers killed and wounded. Because the city here cannot be compared with the city of Datang at all, half of the big city here is equivalent to the size of a county town in Datang.

A city defender died less than a thousand people, so after seeing the Tang Dynasty coming, they were all thrown into the city and ran away by artillery fire. Therefore, more than a dozen cities were defeated along the line, but the killed and wounded Baekje soldiers survived the death of six or seven thousand people.

There are still nearly five or six thousand people who have run away, and these people have all run to the national capital of Si Xian.

Then add the defenders of Si Yu City itself, and now there are nearly 30,000 soldiers and horses in Si Yu City.

In siege warfare, the ratio of forces between the besieging and defending cities should be at least four to one. That is to say, if there are 10,000 people joining the defending side, the besieging side must have at least 40,000 people, and only with this number of troops can they dare to control the siege.

Otherwise, you'll either stay around or walk around the city.

If the besieging side of the city is about to be seven to ten times the strength of the defending side, it is more confident that it can take the city, or it will besiege but not fight, and then take it when the city is exhausted and hungry and dying.

This is also why Wu Yuanqing and the others only sent troops under one city wall, and the other three sides were all released.

Because the number of people is not enough, although there are 10,000 people, in order to avoid a sneak attack on the naval warships on the river, it is necessary to leave a certain number of troops to guard the ships, and the Datang naval divisions are all big ships, and one or two people can't drive them at all, let alone control all kinds of weapons.

Therefore, now there are only 5,000 Tang soldiers who have landed, and the other 5,000 are all left on the ship.

5,000 men wanted to attack a city on a wall defended by 30,000 enemy troops and an unknown number of people in the city, and the traditional hard attack was simply impossible.

Even if he took it down, Wu Yuanqing couldn't bear that huge loss. So, the two sides spent the first day in a confrontation.
