Chapter 526: Musket Siege

There was no plan, just a large army to forcibly occupy the city.

Ye Mo didn't think about relying on stratagem to capture the city, which would also reduce a little loss. However, now that everyone knows the news that the 200,000 Han army has landed on Honshu Island, if Ye Mo and the others still want to reduce the loss of that little soldier, Oda Nobunaga's preparation will be sufficient.

Furthermore, if an army of 200,000 people wants to capture a small city defended by hundreds of people, what use do they have to use? is a big man, and Hao Zhao is only one person.

Along with the reinforcements of the Great Han, they landed on Honshu Island, as well as some of the emperor's forces led by Dino Qingyun, although there was no emperor at this time.

Kyushu Island has been pacified, Di Ye Qingyun naturally doesn't want to let go of this opportunity, as long as he closely follows these reinforcements from the Han Dynasty, are you afraid that Oda Nobunaga will not be able to overthrow?

With Di Ye Qingyun's help, Ye Mo's task became simpler. If Ye Mo and the others were allowed to rule the occupied city, it would definitely provoke resistance from the people of some island countries. However, it was an excellent choice for Di Ye Qingyun to rule those captured cities.

"Miss Diye Qingyun, if you are interested, why don't you work with us, and when the time comes, Oda Nobunaga will be overthrown, and Miss Diye Qingyun will have a reasonable reason to establish a new island country." Ye Mo saw Di Ye Qingyun at the garrison of the army, but he didn't directly ask Di Ye Qingyun to help him.

Whoever speaks first will fall into disadvantage. Ye Mo naturally would not leave himself behind, and besides, he left Di Ye Qingyun. Ye Mo can also support others. But left Ye Mo. Di Ye Qingyun had no other support.

Even if he understood Ye Mo's thoughts, Di Ye Qingyun had no other choice. "Since the general doesn't dislike it, the little woman is here to thank the general for his support."

Ye Mo was also very satisfied when he saw that Di Ye Qingyun was so sensible. If Ye Mo wants to promote the literary language of the Han Dynasty in the island country, he must need an obedient spokesperson.

Without any worries, Ye Mo also divided his troops into two routes, and went directly to take the two cities of Shankou and Xiaguan. Both of these castles are small towns in the western part of Honshu Island, and the number of garrisons in the castles is not large. Especially Yamaguchi Castle. After being tossed by Wei Yan and Ye Mo repeatedly, it was almost an empty city at this time, where was there still defense at all.

Without much effort, Yamaguchi Castle became Ye Mo's possession. As for Xiaguan City, it was out of Ye Mo's surprise, which made the big Han Huben suffer a little setback.

Ye Mo had shown his face in Yamaguchi City before, and at this time, he was naturally not so easy to come forward when he attacked Yamaguchi City. Therefore, after learning that the attack on Xiaguan City had been frustrated, Ye Mo also felt very curious. To know. Xiaguan City was captured by Lu Bu himself.

In order not to waste too much time in Xiaguan City, Ye Mo didn't care about saving Lu Bu's face at this time. Directly lead people to Xiaguan.

Under Xiaguan City, Lu Bu gritted his teeth when he looked at the island soldiers on the city wall at this time. Several times, I saw that the tiger ben of the Han Dynasty was about to rush to the city wall of Shangguan City, but the island soldiers with strange weapons on the city wall were always able to drive down the soldiers of the Han Dynasty.

"Alas, if Mr. Guiyi were here, he would definitely have a way!" Lu Bu looked at the thousands of soldiers of the island country, thinking about the shame in his heart, but wishing that Ye Mo could appear next to him at this time.

It's not that Lu Bu didn't want to take the lead in the charge, but he was just a person, and he lacked skills. Besides, the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the island country is really not weak. Every time Lu Bu wanted to rush to the city, there were always several soldiers from the island country to take care of him, which really made Lu Bu have no choice.

This Xiaguan City is small, and at this time, it has become the advantage of Xiaguan City to defend the city. After all, Lu Bu and the others thought that the city could be taken quickly, and they didn't bring any other siege equipment except for some ladders.

"Zhang Wenyuan, attack again, if it doesn't work this time, we will go to Mr. Guiyi for help." Lu Bu glanced at Zhang Liao on the side, and he was unwilling in his heart, and he didn't want to use the lives of his soldiers to fill this small city.

After listening to Lu Bu's words, Zhang Liao's face showed some embarrassment. Zhang Liao didn't want Lu Bu to be able to take Xiaguan City? Lu Bu is also a generation of famous generals, but in front of Ye Mo, Lu Bu seems to be almost like an ordinary soldier, but he is a super soldier.

"Lord, this time I personally led people up, but I couldn't take down the city wall, and my subordinates apologized for their sins with death." Zhang Liao is also in temper at this time, although Zhang Liao also admires Ye Mo, but when it is time to fight for Lu Bu, he can't be ambiguous.

"General, Captain Ye is here!" Before Lu Bu could say anything to stop Zhang Liao, a soldier who was guarding outside ran over.

After hearing that Ye Mo was coming, Lu Bu and Zhang Liao reacted differently. Lu Bu was excited, but Zhang Liao was a little unwilling. If Ye Mo came over again after Zhang Liao took Xiaguan City, then Zhang Liao would not have reacted like this.

After a soldier reported, Ye Mo also immediately arrived at the city.

"General Lu, how is the situation now?" After seeing Lu Bu, Ye Mo also posted anxiously, but ignored Zhang Liao's feelings on the side.

When Lu Bu heard Ye Mo ask, he immediately fell silent. After hesitating for a while, Lu Bu spoke: "Mr. Guiyi, I have attacked many times in this Guancheng, but there is no progress in the slightest. ”

After Ye Mo heard Lu Bu say this, he also walked closer under the city wall of Xiaguancheng. After the past, Ye Mo also discovered the strangeness of those island soldiers on the city wall.

If it is an ordinary soldier, with a spear and a big knife in his hand, where will there be that kind of strange weapon. The weapon looked like the broadsword used by the samurai of the island country. However, most of the island warriors Ye Mo had seen before were wearing katanas.

"It seems that these soldiers guarding the city are not ordinary people." Just by taking a look, Ye Mo found that something was wrong with those guards guarding the city.

Zhang Liao sneered when he heard Ye Mo say this, and then said, "Of course something is wrong." If only they were ordinary people. Then Lord Guancheng would have taken it a long time ago. ”

Lu Bu listened to Zhang Liao's sarcasm about Ye Mo. is also the reason why I understand what Zhang Liao said. Therefore, Lu Bu only sighed secretly in his heart, but he didn't blame Zhang Liao for anything.

For Zhang Liao's words, Ye Mo didn't care about anything. Zhang Liao, Ye Mo still has some understanding, this person is dissatisfied with Ye Mo now, and he may only have some complaints, and he will not really have any bad motives for Ye Mo.

"The island nation has invaded Qingdao before. I have also seen the battle between the Qingzhou army and the soldiers of the island country. The elite of the warriors of the island country are the warriors of the island country, and among these warriors, there are also differences in rank. I don't know the rank of these samurai, but they are certainly not weak. Ye Mo looked at the island warriors on the city wall, but he didn't have a little worry.

The weapons in the hands of the samurai, although similar to those of the broadsword, were somewhat different. The blades they had stretched out from the long wooden pole could be retracted into the long wooden pole. After retracting it, the weapon in their hand became a wooden stick.

In the form of wooden sticks, those samurai were able to compete with their own people. Don't worry about hurting people. Switch to the form of a slashing broadsword, and you can go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. Training and killing enemies are all done with the same weapon. It also has the effect of letting them run in with weapons.

In any case, it is worth Oda Nobunaga to use some soldiers on their weapons, and then they are definitely not ordinary soldiers. Perhaps, the strength of these warriors even surpassed that of the mid-level warriors who had fought against the Qingzhou Army at the beginning.

"Mr. Guiyi, to tell you the truth, I have also tried to kill the city wall, but every time, they have forced me to retreat." Speaking of this, Lu Bu couldn't help but sigh. Thinking that he is the first military general of the Han Dynasty, he can't even take a small city in this island country, isn't it a joke to say it?

Ye Mo saw that Lu Bu was a little depressed, and hurriedly comforted him: "It's not to blame the generals, they are condescending, and they already have the advantage of the terrain." In addition, those of them must be training together from time to time, and they must also be good at combos. The general's abandonment of the city of Maden was to abandon the advantage. I also need to take care of others, so it's normal to be left behind for a while. ”

Zhang Liao was originally a little dissatisfied with Ye Mo's coming to Xiaguan City at this time, but seeing that Ye Mo was able to understand Lu Bu so well, he finally didn't have any bad thoughts about Ye Mo anymore.

Lu Bu saw that Ye Mo excused him, but he still had a wry smile on his face. "Okay, let's not talk about that. Now that Mr. Guiyi is here, I don't know if there is any way to take Shimonoseki City? ”

When it came to the topic, Ye Mo no longer persuaded Lu Bu anything. People like Lu Bu must be extremely arrogant, and if they lose for a while, it is impossible for them to go back and find any reason.

"Call those soldiers, it's time for them to strike." Since he wants to take the city as soon as possible, Ye Mo no longer keeps any hole cards. At the very least, it's time to open one of the hole cards.

After listening to Ye Mo's words, Ye San, who was beside Ye Mo, also brought some of the soldiers who had been assigned to attack Xiaguan City all the way. Those soldiers Lu Bu had seen them before, but they were not wearing any weapons, but they were carrying a black cloth bag behind them, which looked like a wooden stick more than two feet long.

Lu Bu watched Ye Mo call those soldiers over, and countless questions suddenly arose in his heart.

But at this time, Lu Bu didn't open his mouth to ask, as long as Ye Mo began to attack the city later, the question would naturally be solved.

"The shield men took cover, and the musketeers stepped forward and attacked the enemy troops on the city walls in three rows in turn." After those people came, Ye Mo also asked for some shield soldiers from Lu Bu's hands, and asked the shield soldiers to cover those spearmen.

That's right, they are one of the hole cards in Ye Mo's hand - musketeers!

Under Ye Mo's order, the three rows of shield soldiers also covered the three rows of musketeers to move in the direction of the city wall of Xiaguancheng. When they were within range, several rows of soldiers stopped in unison. The shield bearer then retracts the shield at a 75-degree angle, and the musketeer takes the gun, loads, aims, and shoots......

"Boom, boom, boom......"

After a burst of gunfire, the soldiers of the island country at the head of the city were also killed and wounded.

After the attack was completed, some of the musketeers began to repeat their previous actions, but the soldiers of the island country were so frightened that they hid behind the women's wall, not daring to show their heads.

Looking at all this in front of him, Lu Bu was simply dreaming. The musketeers had only attacked in a few rounds, and they had done more damage than they had attacked several times, and there were no losses.

"General Lu, now you can attack the city." Looking at the debut of the musketeer in front of him, Ye Mo also expressed great satisfaction. Then, turning his head, Ye Mo smiled and said to Lu Bu.

Being called by Ye Mo like this, Lu Bu suddenly came back to his senses from surprise. "Yes, yes, yes, hurry up and attack the city. Wen Yuan, pass my order, the whole army attack! (To be continued......)
