On the narrow ground between the south bank of the Liang River and Liaodong City, more than 10,000 archers were crowded, and when Su You's cannonballs fell into them, they had no way to hide.

Five rounds of artillery fired a total of 750 shells, most of which landed outside the city, and hundreds of bombs also entered the city.

But there is a mistake, since Su You used firearms, it was the first time that the full effectiveness of artillery was truly brought into play.

In a battle against the ambush, no less than 3,000 Gao Kaidao troops died directly under the artillery, and countless others were trampled to death and wounded.

Su You watched the north gate of Liaodong City open, and countless Gao Kaidao troops rushed into the city, and suddenly realized that this was a good opportunity to enter the city, so he ordered, "Dock at full speed, Wei Ting and Wang Qijun get off the boat first to seize the city gate, and Zhang Longjun rushed into the city after the whole team."

In the military of this era, the higher the status, the more qualified they are to be at the forefront of the ranks, and they are more qualified to receive honors; Su You knew that fighting was to kill people, so he often put the cannon fodder troops at the forefront.

The reason why Su You did this was probably because he had never experienced the situation of being hit by his own cannon fodder troops; If he knew about the battle between Wang Shichong and Li Mi that had just ended, he would have thought more about his own arrangements.

In fact, Su You could only arrange it like this, after all, the troops commanded by Wei Ting and Wang Qi had no horses, and it would be much more convenient for them to get off the boat than the cavalry led by Zhang Long and Jiao Ziheng.

As for Su You, who didn't send the 2,000 people led by the newly surrendered Zhang Junli at the first time, he was probably worried that they would not be able to deal with the soldiers in the Gao Kaidao army, after all, they were still a group before

After a few rounds of artillery bombardment, all that was left of the Gao Kaidao army was to flee, how could there be half an attack?

After Su You's military order was issued, the people on the boat lifted the anchor one after another, or simply untied the buckle and left the iron anchor in the river, and the rowing soldiers spared no effort and rowed to the shore with the strength of milk.

Some of the Gaokai Taoist soldiers who were still at the head of Liaodong City also seemed to have noticed that the signs in the river were a little unbelievable, and immediately shouted loudly, "Oh no! The enemy is on the shore! ”

"Close the gates! The enemy is coming into the city! ”

There is no doubt how valuable these soldiers who have survived several rounds of artillery fire and can still keep their composure, but what is the cry of a few of them in the clamor of thousands of soldiers who have fled?

Even if the guards could hear their cries, how could they bring down the gates when the brothers rushed into the city?

A moment later, the warship carrying the 4,000 soldiers commanded by Wei Ting and Wang Qi approached the shore, and the auxiliaries rushed down to hold the cable, and some lost no time in lowering the pedals so that the soldiers could land safely.

"Brothers, our goal is to seize the city gate and rush with me!" After Wei Ting shouted this, he lifted the reins of the horse and stepped on the pedal first, and then landed safely.

In such a noisy environment, although Wei Ting's voice was loud, he could only hear the three or four hundred people on his ship; But the 2,000 men he commanded knew the target as early as when the warship docked, so they all rushed off the boat with a scream when they saw Wei Ting jumping off the boat first.

Wei Ting couldn't organize the team, but the team still maintained the basic formation, and after they disembarked, they went straight into the battle; For the enemy who only knew how to crowd at the city gate, they naturally would not hesitate to wave the knife in their hand.

At the same time, Wang Jue also got off the boat, but what he had to do was to cover Wei Ting's troops into the city gate, after all, the city gate was so big, if they were all crowded in, what was the difference between it and Gao Kaidao's army?

The 1,000 heavy cavalry commanded by Zhang Long and the 2,000 foot soldiers commanded by Zhang Junli also landed on the shore, but what they did now was to wait for Wei Ting and Wang Qi to seize the city gate and then rush into the city; Taking advantage of this time, they began to organize the team.

This time, only 2,000 people were brought down, and the remaining 1,000 people were all left in the ship, in case Gao Kaidao might come around the other city gates to rob the ship

In fact, Su You's worries were unnecessary, Gao Kaidao had the idea of hijacking the ship, but he pinned all his hopes on the nearly 10,000 archers, he didn't even expect Su You to be in such a hurry to dock the ship.

mistakenly underestimated Su You's strength, which made Gao Kaidao a bitter fruit.

Because of the deterrence of artillery, the archers at the north gate of Liaodong City had already lost their armor, and the Gaokaidao patrol in the city, not far from the north gate, was also affected by the pond fish, and then their reaction was to run around.

Gao Kaidao did not personally command this ambush battle, but after he heard the roar of artillery and shells, he still led his guards to quickly rush to the north gate, but the bombs that fell beside him inexplicably were really frightened and he did not have the courage to go forward to command.

Even if you have the courage, what can you do? The fleeing archers no longer knew who Gao Kaidao was.

Gao Kaidao could only sigh at this time, "The general trend has gone"

It is true that the general trend has gone, and the four thousand vanguard troops led by Wei Ting and Wang Qi did not deliberately slaughter the Gao Kaidao troops who fled, they just took advantage of the situation to rush into the city and control the city defense of the north gate for the first time.

At this time, there were no living people at the gates, but the city was full of running and sorrow.

Gao Kaidao has already begun to consider a way out, all because of the lack of food.

If it weren't for the lack of food, Gao Kaidao would not have thought of leaving, and it would have been impossible for him to take the initiative to grab Su You's warship; If there was enough food and grass in Liaodong City, and if Gao Kaidao insisted on sticking to it, Su You would not have rushed into the city so quickly.

Thinking about the fact that the Goryeo people resisted the nearly one million army of the Great Sui here, but they were pressed by several rounds of bombardment and wanted to escape, and Gao Kaidao suddenly lost all hopes.

Zhang Long's cavalry began to enter the city, shouting at the soldiers who were scurrying around the city to lay down their weapons as they rampaged through the main streets.

The next two thousand soldiers led by Zhang Junli entered the city, but their main task this time was to persuade them to surrender; Fu Ziheng led 2,000 soldiers to the east gate and the west gate in two ways, and the main goal of these 2,000 men was to prevent Gao Kaidao from escaping.

When he arrived at the west gate of Liaodong City, he saw Gao Kaidao rushing out under the arch guard of one hundred and ten guards; They all rode war horses under their crotches, and if they were a little late, they would be afraid that they would not be able to catch up with them again.

The north and west sides of Liaodong City are close to the Liang River, and Gao Kaidao wants to flee to Changli County, but he can only go south first, but how can he let him go?

Two moments later, the news came from the Hengbu that Gao Kaidao had been killed, and Su You finally breathed a sigh of relief; If Gao Kaidao was willing to surrender, Su You really didn't know what to do with him.

If Gao Kaidao was left in Liaodong City, Su You would not be at ease, who knew when he would turn against him?

Besides, if you leave Gao Kaidao, what is the point of fighting this battle by yourself?

Liaodong belongs to the territory ceded to Su You by Goryeo and is sacrosanct, but the reason why Su You is in a hurry to drive away the people of Gao Kaidao is mainly because of the open-pit coal mine.

Secondly, Su You was also worried about long nights and dreams, and was afraid that Gao Kaidao would take root here.

But there is a paradox that Su You also hopes that the land in Liaodong County will be cultivated, otherwise the land that was previously cultivated by the Goryeo people will soon be barren.

It wasn't until Zhang Junli came from the city that more than 20,000 people had been surrendered, and this number was still getting bigger, that Su You finally thought of the fate of these people

Wouldn't it be good to let the strong follow them to dominate the world, and let the old and weak remain here to farm?

The question is, is it really good that these people are not from their homeland, and that tens of thousands of men are farming here? Also, why can't the current stock of Liaodong City meet the needs of 50,000 people for three days?

If you had known the economic situation of Gao Kaidao, there would be no need to travel thousands of miles to come here in this battle.

After taking Liaodong City, Su You will inevitably have happy troubles.

After thinking about it, Su You still gave up the idea of farming here for the time being, even if he wanted to farm, he could slowly move north from the Humble City until he reached here

The next thing Su You has to do is to send the eliminated laborers back to Sanshan City as soon as possible, and those who can meet the qualifications to join the army will be temporarily included in the team; As for the national policy that only citizens can join the army, to hell with it!

After the battle of Liaodong City ended, all kinds of news came up in a stream, and Su You inevitably thought of Li Jinglai.

This is also because among the soldiers left behind by Gao Kaidao, at least 5,000 strong soldiers can be selected, but who can lead these 5,000 recruits?

Su You thought of Li Jing for the first time, and in the end he could only hand it over to Zhang Long.

These 5,000 recruits came from 40,000 soldiers, and their physical fitness was not far from the 4,000 elites brought by Wei Ting and Wang Qi, but Zhang Long didn't seem to think so. Zhang Long originally led 2,000 heavy cavalry, and his 2,000 heavy cavalry could face the 50,000 army of Gao Kaidao, how could he put these 5,000 troops in his eyes?

But an order is an order, and Zhang Long can't disobey it, so Su You only promised that it was temporary.

Zhang Long didn't believe Su You's words, because Su You drew fifty-five of the best soldiers to Zhang Long from the thousands of heavy cavalry that followed, and five of these people were immediately promoted to the rank of centurion, and the remaining fifty were centurions

Zhang Long was a little happy that Su You gave him the necessary manpower, but at the same time he had his own contradictions, when he was in charge of the heavy cavalry again in the future, would these people still follow him back?

The answer is obvious, Zhang Long even thought that Su You was going to cancel the rhythm of heavy riding, but in fact, he misunderstood Su You.

How many years did Su You take to train these two thousand heavy riders? How could Su You give up his plan to re-ride?

In any case, Su You needed to expand his army, because he realized that the era of competing for hegemony was coming, how could he fight with others with only his own warships and troops of less than 10,000 people? ——(Su You hadn't heard from Li Yuan's cavalry at this time.) ）

I was in a hurry to train the soldiers because I was planning to start sailing back, after all, the food on the Su cruise ship was limited, but now the number of people suddenly increased by four times!

Su You needs to bring most of these fallen strokes back to the Three Mountains to farm, otherwise spring will pass!

Su You believed that Zhang Long with 5,000 newly surrendered soldiers and 4,000 elites of Wei Ting and Wang Qi would have no pressure at all to take Changli County; As for the next stop, Su You hopes that it will be Xuansu County and the Turks, and of course Wei Ting and Wang Qi will return to Youzhou at that time
