This unknown small city, in fact, is not as large as a casual county town in the Central Plains, in the eyes of the Sui army, this city except for poverty and shabby, there are no suitable words to describe it. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Luo Cheng's attack was actually very abrupt, his army did not have a siege ladder, let alone a cloud ladder, but in his opinion, the height of the city wall is only one zhang, and he can jump on it with a light jump, as for ordinary soldiers, stacking a personal wall, stepping on a shoulder, it is not difficult to come up, so there is no need for a siege ladder at all, if you take the siege ladder, it is not very good, because the siege ladder is too long, if you go up, it may be much higher than the city wall, if it is placed diagonally, it is too easy to slide down.

The Japanese army in the city was defenseless at all, when the Sui army just rushed to this side, they actually gathered at the head of the city to discuss, I feel that these people are very strange, they are tall and big, and they are wearing a black bully and don't know what it is, and they don't know what it is on their heads, they always look awkward, but when the other party approached, they found that the other party's face was distorted and fanatical, and when the murderous aura came to their faces, they reacted, the other party was coming to attack the city!

There was a sudden chaos on the head of the city, and the alarm of the bell bell was piercing, but before the defenders were ready, the Sui army had already broken through the city gate, killed the city wall, and rushed into the city, like a fierce flood to break through the defenders' defense line, which made the Japanese army and the people in the city defenseless, and the city was suddenly in chaos.

Luo Cheng rode on a horse, wantonly crisscrossed the city, stabbed the Japanese soldiers who were fleeing to the ground, he rushed all the way to the ground, the defenders of this city were simply vulnerable, much weaker than the soldiers of the Central Plains, there was no combat effectiveness at all, the soldiers basically did not make any decent resistance after they broke through the city gate, and they didn't even dare to fight in the street fighting, they knew that the number of defenders was still quite a lot, and when they ran, they seemed to be more numerous, and the Sui army was scattered to chase and kill, Immediately there was chaos in the city.

He didn't really care about it, and ordered the soldiers not to massacre, and he himself led the people towards the tallest and largest building in the city, which was probably the location of someone like the lord of the city or the county guard!

This unknown small city is actually one of the few cities on the island of Kyushu, the history of the Japanese is relatively long, but the whole country at this time is not completely able to be regarded as a country, during the Sui Dynasty, the Japanese State is not a country, but more than 30 countries, the great cause of the three years, the king of the Japanese Kingdom Doris sent a tribute to the Sui Emperor, to the Sui Emperor to express his admiration for the Heavenly Empire, expressed his envy of the Sui Dynasty's strength, willing to send a group of Sui envoys every year like the Sui Dynasty, came to learn about the interests and culture of the Celestial Empire, and of course, they also wanted to learn the military affairs of the Sui army.

Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty was displeased, and said Hongluqing said: "If there are rude people in the barbarian book, don't hear about it." ”

I just don't want to hear such an impudent messenger again, and in the future, the barbarians will write us a letter of state, and if the content written in it is vulgar, don't let me see it again.

Then a year later, in the fourth year of the Great Cause, Emperor Yang of Sui sent Wenlin Lang Pei Qing to envoy to the Wa Kingdom.

It is recorded in the Book of Sui as follows: Qingdu Baekje, traveled to Zhudao, looked south to the country of Wangluo, passed through the country of Dusma, and was in the sea. It is also east to a country, and then to the country of Zhusi, and east to the kingdom of Qin, whose people are the same as Huaxia, thinking that Yizhou, is doubtful. It passed through more than ten countries and reached the coast. From the east of the Zhusi country, they are all vassals of the Wa. The king of the Japanese sent Xiaode Adaitai, from hundreds of people, set up a guard of honor, and beat drums and horns to greet him.

It is said that he set out from Baekje and drove eastward, as if he arrived at a place called Takeshima (I don't know if it is the Takeshima that Japan and South Korea argue about today), and then he experienced many small countries, and there is even a country called the Kingdom of Qin, and the local people look exactly the same as the people of Middle-earth, Pei Qing was surprised, thinking that he had arrived at the legendary Yizhou, but he had never been able to figure out this thing, and then he passed through more than a dozen countries, and then he arrived at the territory of the Wa Kingdom, and the territory of the Wa Kingdom was in a place called the east of the Zhusi Kingdom.

As can be seen from this paragraph, the Wa Kingdom at that time was not actually a unified country, but was composed of vassal states, and the country area was actually not too large, probably in the western part of present-day Japan.

The country here on Kyushu Island is actually the Takesi Province, and the sphere of influence of this country is in the southern and western areas of Fukuoka Prefecture on the island of Kyushu today, with Toyohibetsu (Toyokoku) to the east, and Kenhibetsu (Hikoku) and Kenhibetsu (Kumazenkoku) to the south.

And the Bamboo Kingdom is a vassal state of the Wa Kingdom, so the island also has to undertake the task of sending troops to Tsushima Island every year, which is why Luo Cheng and they met that army on the beach before was only 500 people.

The Zhusi country is not very large, with a population of only more than 100,000 households, about 700,000 people, which is larger than the other Fengguo, Feiguo and Xiongzeng countries, and the number of troops is also the largest, and the strength is the strongest.

Luo Cheng didn't know about Pei Qing's envoy to the Wa Kingdom, and Qin Qiong didn't know either, so he didn't know about the Zhusi Kingdom, Feng Guo and Fei Guo after trading with the Wa people on Jeju Island.

And they knew that there was more food on the side of Zhusi Country, and the population was slightly denser than other places, so this time they sent troops to target here, just to loot food and population from here.

The army of Zhusi country has not been beaten, this unknown small city is actually called Xizhucheng, and it will be renamed Zhucheng in the future, although the scale can not enter the eyes of the Sui army, but in Zhusi country, and even in the entire Kyushu Island, this is one of the best big cities.

As mentioned earlier, the social development of the Wa Kingdom is actually very slow, from the ancient Shang and Zhou dynasties after the discovery of the island inhabited, the Wa people did not establish their own civilization until the Sui Dynasty, before that, they all lived a life of Ru Mao drinking blood, and it was a branch of the Qin army that brought them civilization, that is, the Qin Kingdom that the Sui Dynasty envoy Pei Qing saw, this is the Qin Dynasty people who retreated to the side of the Wa State after the death of Qin, they are not many in number, but they maintain the culture of the Central Plains, The characters used are all small seals of the Qin Dynasty.

A catfish that breaks into a group of sardines will make the whole group of sardines become active and start to change themselves actively or passively, which is called the catfish effect. And this also accelerated the development of the Japanese civilization, otherwise they probably do not have their own writing, their own etiquette and culture.

However, the Qin Kingdom is not in Kyushu Island, but in the area of Yamaguchi County on the main island of Japan, their number is very small, only less than 20,000 people, the reason why they can survive in the melee is mainly related to their weapons that are stronger than other Japanese civilizations, such as the world-famous Qin army bow and crossbow, the Qin army ironclad army and the Qin army military merit system, this is a kingdom somewhat similar to the ancient Greek Spartan city-state, not very large, but the army's combat effectiveness is off the charts, and no one dares to provoke it easily.

Luo Cheng didn't know this, but he soon did, because he captured the king of Zhusi, a guy with a strange name, Izanaga, and called him Naga.

Luo Cheng took three hundred soldiers and killed all the way to the king's palace, which is a palace, no better than the county government in the Central Plains, there is no majestic stone lion at the door, and there is no high-gate compound, and the palace wall outside is actually a wooden plank wall, which is less than a zhang high, which is really pitiful!

"Say, where are all the gold, silver, jewelry, and food supplies in your city?"

“々﹟#﹩$﹠&﹪%*﹡……”

"What are you doing? Louder, speak slowly! ”

As soon as Naga spoke, Luo Cheng was stunned when he heard it, what is this talking about, I didn't understand a word from my mother, what I knew was that people were talking, and those who didn't know thought it was ****** animals calling!

“々﹟#﹩$﹠&﹪﹡&￥……”

"Uh......"

Luo Cheng looked disappointed and shouted loudly: "Is there anyone among you who can speak human words?" ”

He shouted a few times, and several officials and soldiers of Zhusi Kingdom trembled, thinking that he was losing his temper and wanted to put them to death, and they all fell to their knees in fright.

At this time, the Sui Dynasty did not bow down, kneeling this kind of ceremony is used when worshipping ancestors or when encountering very important things to meet parents, kneel and worship when meeting people, that will be scolded, even if you see the emperor, you will start to bow down as soon as you go up, and the emperor is estimated to directly let the guards pull you out and cut you in minutes.

So seeing these people bowing down to him, Luo Cheng was taken aback, and hurriedly jumped away in embarrassment, joking, whoever receives this kind of gift will have to lose his life.

"Is there really no one who can speak human language?"

He unwillingly thickened his throat again, but it had no effect, and at this time, a soldier came in to report that Qin Qiong led the rear army had arrived.

Luo Cheng asked people to take good care of these people, not let them escape, and then ran out to welcome Qin Qiong into the city.

The battle in the city is actually over, a group of Sui soldiers escorted groups of Japanese soldiers towards the outside of the city, outside the city, a large camp has begun to be built, on the side of this large camp, there is a large area for the prisoners, they will stay here in the future, the Sui soldiers are not too cruel to the prisoners, severe or severe, but the soldiers are in a mastery of a degree, the people above have already explained, these short, mentally ill guys will be their deputy soldiers in the future, If one is broken, there will be one less.

"What about the casualties of the troops?"

After scanning the situation in the city, the order was not bad, and the soldiers finally did not kill and set fire on a large scale in the city, otherwise the loss would be a bit large.

In fact, in all dynasties, every time the city is attacked, once the city is breached, then it will be difficult to avoid the massacre, even if it is not a complete massacre, it is difficult to stop the phenomenon of soldiers burning and looting in the city, and when attacking the city, the more fierce the resistance of the defenders, the more tragic the massacre after the city is breached.

When some soldiers motivate their soldiers to fight bravely, they will also shout slogans such as not sealing the sword for ten days, burning and looting for ten days after breaking the city, and no one cares, so that the soldiers can attack with all their strength, after all, the siege of the city is quite a difficult and dangerous thing.

And after getting the soldier's reward and knowing that Luo Cheng led his troops to attack the city, Qin Qiong was a little worried, worried that his people would burn and loot in the city after breaking through the city, which was actually not a big problem, after all, he could come in time, and if he stopped it, it would not cause too serious consequences, but if someone put a fire in the city, it would be troublesome, as long as one person took the lead, then others would follow suit, and soon the fire would spread everywhere in the city. And a small city, which was already somewhat barren, was burned down by fire, then there was really nothing left, and the city would have no value.

But it seems that the situation is okay, no one set fire at this time, and there was no soldier smashing and looting on the street, Qin Qiong breathed a sigh of relief, the military discipline of the Sui army is still satisfactory, this is still due to the previous Liu Zhizai's soldiers, a position arranged in the army, called Xuanfu Envoy, assists the generals of the army in managing the army, publicizes ideology and politics for the soldiers, and improves their ideological consciousness, in fact, it is really hard to say how much this thing has a role.

In fact, the situation in the city this time is good, mainly not in the good military discipline of the Sui army, this is of course part of the reason, but the main reason is that the army of Zhusi Country is too watery, they have not much decent resistance at all, they have been defeated, the attacking side in the process of attacking the city actually did not encounter much resistance, so the soldiers do not have much resentment in their hearts to vent, after breaking the city, naturally there is no need to go around killing people and setting fire to vent their anger.

"The casualties are very minor, the previous statistics were that five soldiers were lost and killed during the siege of the city, and more than 30 people were injured, and the rest of the situation was not counted after entering the city!"

The look on Luo Cheng's face was quite calm, there was no anger or self-blame because of the casualties of the army, and he did not feel complacent about easily breaking through a city, in fact, in his eyes, such an enemy is not worthy of being an opponent, even if it is easily defeated, it is not worth boasting about, this can be regarded as the growth of a military general, before this, Luo Cheng has always been more impulsive, more superior, in the previous battle against Baekje, it was because of his belligerence that the Sui army lost a large number of soldiers, This incident had a great impact on him, and few people in the army mentioned it so as not to touch him.
