Chapter 544: The Artillery Battle of Hiroshima
Outside Hiroshima City, since Zhang Liao entered the city with cavalry, Abe Yongxin ordered the army to strengthen the defense of the camp, and never attacked Hiroshima Castle again.
Abe Yongxin did not take the initiative to attack, not to mention, but also made their military camp into a hedgehog-like existence, which made Zhang Liao also have no interest in stealing the camp.
In this way, Hiroshima Castle was quiet for a while, and if it weren't for the countless demolished houses in the city, and the white cloths hung in the city for the soldiers and people who died in defense, I really couldn't see what had happened in the city before.
The army of the island nation outside the city stopped attacking, and Wei Yan consulted with Fa Zheng to gather all the people who had helped defend the city before, and let them receive some formal training.
Although it is said that they are allowed to receive formal training, but around the camp composed of those people and strong, it is Zhang Liao's wolf riders who are distributed in threes and twos. Moreover, those people seem to be careless, but both Wei Yan and Fa Zheng clearly understand that once there is a change, the wolf rider will form a formation in the shortest possible time.
Zhang Liao was standing on the wall of Hiroshima Castle at this time, but his eyes were on the barracks in the city. Although looking at Zhang Liao from a distance, he can't see it very really.
After entering the city, Zhang Liao discovered the difference between those people. When those people looked at their wolf riders, Zhang Liao could feel an obvious murderous aura.
If it were someone else, it might not have felt so obviously. But the wolf riders are different, this is an extremely bloodthirsty cavalry, trained from killing, they are always accompanied by death. Therefore, Zhang Liao is extremely sensitive to murderous aura.
Gather those people and strong, among them is also Zhang Liao's idea. Zhang Liao did not defend the city with these people, therefore. As long as these people make the slightest move, Zhang Liao will definitely kill them without mercy.
However, the situation is not as bad as they think about them. Although the wolf riders around those people often lured those people to exude their murderous aura, those people did not reach the point of losing control after all.
Perhaps it was because the families of those people were still in the city, and their affection for them made them suppress the bloodthirsty desire in their hearts. Or maybe they see that they just need to get out of control. will be surrounded by death in no time......
But no matter what, those people didn't let their bloodthirsty desires blind their hearts after all, which made Fa Zheng and Wei Yan also deeply relieved.
After a dull day in Hiroshima City, Ye Mo finally came to Hiroshima Castle on the evening of the second day after Zhang Liao arrived. Because he entered Hiroshima City from the direction of the West Gate, Ye Mo also did not find any signs of the siege of the island army.
All this also made Ye Mo think that his initial guess was wrong, and until now Oda Nobunaga has not found that Hiroshima Castle has been lost. Of course, after Ye Mo entered Hiroshima City, he didn't continue to doubt himself.
That same evening. After Ye Mo entered Hiroshima City, the first thing he asked after seeing Fazheng was to ask which part of the city had been demolished. After knowing this, Ye Mo directly ordered Wei Yan to take the less than two thousand soldiers left in the original city to surround that place.
Although Fa Zheng and Zhang Liao didn't know what Ye Mo wanted to do, they saw that Ye Mo's face was very anxious at this time, so they didn't ask.
As for Ye Mo, if that place is fenced off, it is naturally necessary to establish a siege equipment factory.
The island army doesn't look like a big deal right now. But Ye Mo knew that the current army of island countries. Most of them are the armies of the original island country, but after some training, they are similar to the combat effectiveness of the soldiers of the Han Dynasty.
The real elite of the island country's army is the group of people who invaded Qingzhou with the island country's navy. Although the Qingzhou army led by Cao Ren is the elite of Qingzhou, it will still be suppressed when facing the elite of the island country, when it occupies the numerical advantage.
So. Now Ye Mo understands very well that his advantage lies in the system, not in the soldiers summoned by the system. This means that if you can use the system to summon those weapons of war, then hurry. No need to hide it.
Although Wei Yan led the soldiers in the city to guard that area in turn, Wei Yan said that he didn't know what was happening there. He just knew that after dawn the next day, a building had already appeared in the place where the ruins had been crossed.
Although everyone understands that this building was built because of the people brought by Ye Mo, but aside from other doubts, everyone doesn't understand the function of this building.
In the military camp in the west of the city in Luoyang, although Ye Mo also established several siege equipment factories, the shape of this building was not fixed. Therefore, the building that was now unfolding in front of Wei Yan's eyes did not look very special from the outside.
In the camp of the island army outside Hiroshima Castle, at noon, the elite sent by Oda Nobunaga and the more than a dozen artillery pieces finally arrived.
Abe Yongshin looked at the reinforcements sent by Oda Nobunaga, and his heart was extremely happy. Of course, the face is also quite obvious. "Thank you for your hard work, the general for me. With your help, I will definitely be able to take down Hiroshima Castle. ”
Abe Nagasobu thought he was acting kindly, but when he finished speaking, the face of the commander of the soldiers sent by Oda Nobunaga suddenly changed. "Patriarch Abe, what do you mean by this, it shouldn't be that you haven't taken Hiroshima Castle yet?"
The commander didn't really know what the situation was like in Hiroshima Castle, nor did he know how many defenders there were in Hiroshima Castle before. It's just that when he came to support, Toyotomi Hideyoshi instructed him that he must give Abe Yongshin a dismissal.
Although the commander only said such a sentence, Abe Yongshin was frightened.
With an army of 50,000, he besieged a large city with only 3,000 defenders, but the city was not taken, and in the end he lost more than 10,000 soldiers. Although, nearly 4,000 of them were lost because the last cavalry suddenly killed. However, he didn't do anything vigilant, which is why they were attacked.
"This general, you must be aware of it. It's not that I don't care, it's really ......" Although it was wrong to say that Abe Yongxin was a soldier, as soon as he opened his mouth, Abe Yongxin still began to excuse himself.
"What is it? Is it because the general didn't send you enough soldiers? "The commander didn't particularly want to embarrass Abe. After all, he had the impression that Hiroshima Castle was a big city, and the walls were so thick that it was not easy to take. However, as soon as he heard Abe Yongxin speak, it was a excuse, and the commander immediately despised Abe Yongxin incomparably.
Seeing that the commander was like this, Abe Yongxin was immediately frightened and didn't dare to open his mouth to defend himself, but just told the siege battle of the past few days as it was. Of course, the fact that there were only 3,000 defenders in the city was covered up by Abe Yongxin.
After Abe finished speaking, the commander said no more. It's just a matter of getting off the horse, and since it's already done, there's no need to chase after it.
"Give us a place to rest, tomorrow, it's time for us to play." The commander glanced at Abe Yongshin, who was a little frightened, and said lightly.
Abe Yongxin breathed a sigh of relief when he listened to the words of the commander.
By the next morning, in Hiroshima Castle, the siege equipment factory had already produced an artillery. After Ye Mo ordered Wei Yan to lead people to carry the cannon to the city, he said to the people around him with a smile: "Let me open your eyes later, what is the god of war!" ”
Ye Mo looked like he was smiling, looking forward to the island army outside the city coming to attack the city, and then show the power of the artillery.
It's just that before the smile on Ye Mo's face disappeared, outside the city, the army of the island nation was pushing more than a dozen artillery pieces in a line, slowly moving in the direction of Hiroshima City.
Looking at those artillery, Ye Mo was suddenly frightened into a cold sweat. Just now he wanted to show the power of artillery, but he forgot that there is also artillery in the island country. It's just that Ye Mo has always believed that the artillery of the island country only exists on ships, and ignores the fact that artillery can be placed on the ground to move.
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Ye Mo looked at the artillery operator next to him and asked, "Is there a problem with letting you aim at the opponent's artillery later?" ”
The artillery operator was also summoned by the system, and he also gasped when he looked at the more than ten artillery pieces outside. However, at this time, he still replied: "There is no problem in beating them, the question is what should I do if they hit me after beating them?" ”
After hearing this, Ye Mo was silent for a moment, and then replied: "Let's fight, at least attract all their attention." ”
As he spoke, Ye Mo turned his head to look at Zhang Liao and said, "General Wenyuan, the other party's artillery is a great threat to our defense of the city. So, I hope that General Wen Yuan will be able to lead the cavalry over and destroy their artillery after we have attracted their attention. ”
Seeing that Ye Mo was so serious, Zhang Liao immediately nodded and agreed.
Seeing that Zhang Liao agreed, Ye Mo also asked the soldiers on the city wall to temporarily retreat under the city wall first, so as not to suffer unnecessary losses. On the city wall, in addition to the artillery left, there were only more than 100 soldiers scattered at the head of the city to observe the movements of the island army.
Outside the city, Abe Yongshin looked at the more than a dozen artillery pieces, and his heart was infinitely excited. With these artifacts, not to mention a Hiroshima city, what if there are only 3,000 defenders, even 30,000 defenders?
"Boom!"
Just when Abe was confidently thinking about how Hiroshima Castle would be destroyed, a cannon was lifted into the sky with the sound of an explosion, and then smashed down heavily, crushing several soldiers who could not escape into meat sauce.
Seeing this scene, Abe Yongshin was stunned. Looking at the walls of the city that had just arrived, a black cannon barrel seemed to be aimed at their cannons, preparing for a second attack. (To be continued.) )
