Tools are not invincible, invincible is spirit.

As Li Yuanxing said to Wu Bin, the real treasure of the hundred blades of the Qin Wangfu is not the hundred steel knives, but the owner of the hundred knives.

In the face of powerful tools, legions with high will can also fight.

However, there is an absolute value for each generation.

In the face of the absolutely powerful Liliang, the will must also give way to the tools.

Ulji Mundeok, one of Goguryeo's finest generals in the 7th century AD, was definitely the strongest in his loyalty, and none of them. His troops were also the most elite in Goguryeo, with the most haode equipment, the most intense training, and the highest loyalty of all the Goguryeo legions.

Niu Jinda stood about two hundred and fifty paces in front of the city wall, and motioned for the heavy shield guards beside him to retreat.

"Herald, Divine Fire Crow!"

What is that on the shelf? Yizhi Wende didn't know, he looked back at the two huge, hundred-zhang-long flying boats in the air, and a sense of powerlessness suddenly welled up in his heart, Datang may only use a little strength to deal with his city, he believed that the huge flying boat had more and more terrifying attack methods.

It is impossible for such a fetish to be made just for the sake of looking good.

Suddenly, Etozhi Wende's eyes changed: "Send the message, all the bed crossbows are ready, and the crossbows are raised." Spearmen ready, heavy shieldmen ready! ”

Niu Jinda looked at the Goguryeo army that was still in high morale at the city gate, and there was a murderous look in his eyes: "Spread the message, Feiyan fire is one hundred." Flying Swift Fire, then release the Crows! ”

Li Yuan, who was sitting on the Weiyuan, nodded very solemnly: "Goguryeo can defeat the former Sui three times, and it is definitely not an ordinary person. Think of the Great Qin Crossbow Array. Even if I encounter it, I will be a little caught off guard. This person is terrible, 6,000 soldiers have been lost in a few breaths, but the morale of the rest of the soldiers is still high, this person is a good general! ”

"Humph!" Li Yuanxing snorted coldly.

"Don't Gorou think this person is a good general?"

"It doesn't matter if he is or not, I have countless Tang Liang generals. Even if he descends to our Tang Dynasty, he may not be able to talk about him when he arrives at the gate of General Tiance's mansion, his soldiers are good. But it can't be used by my Datang, so whether it's my father's praise or recognition, it may be a pity. He won't even live! ”

Li Yuanxing's words are the truth. Li Yuan did not refute it, but was very supportive.

Eulzhi Wende is an excellent general, but he is not a hero, and there is no need to pity him.

Li Yuanxing said again: "Father." He was an elite Goguryeo soldier. Aren't my Datang soldiers elite? On morale. The sergeants of the Tang Dynasty are not weaker than them. ”

Li Yuan nodded again.

The attack in front of the city has begun, and the Delphinium is considered a toy in modern times. The principle is that many years ago, the monkeys in the fireworks. It's just a little bigger. A small bamboo tube was added to the front and filled with oil.

The main body is one foot five long, plus the tail balance and the balance wings on both sides, it is only three feet long.

On top of the wooden frame, twenty-four are placed in a shelf, and all of them are released at one ignition, which is a flying swift.

One hundred swifts is two thousand four hundred attacks.

The cost of a flying bird's nest, plus the fire oil in front, is dozens of dollars. Releasing a hundred is not comparable to the cost of a Vulcan Crow, but the lethality is a different matter.

"Put!"

With Niu Jinda's order, more than 2,000 flying fire swallows with very ordinary accuracy flew all over the sky, but they all landed on the walls of Anshi City, or inside the city.

In the face of this strange attack that flew around, but could not kill the dead, Yizhi Wende was confused, was it the failure of the Tang Army, or other reasons.

At the moment when he was stunned, ten bamboo and wood monster birds with one foot wide wings like giant birds flew towards Anshi City, and their speed was so fast that many soldiers couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Bed crossbow, shoot that strange bird!" Eokchi Wende shouted.

This is ancient, not modern. There is no efficient communication tool, it is all up to people.

When the herald passed the order down, the bed crossbowman was ready when he heard the order, and only four bed crossbows were fired on either side of Ulji Wende, three of them were missed, and one was fired at the crow. The raven veered off course and exploded on the drawbridge of the moat, blazing with flames.

"Prepare to put out the fire!" Etoshi Wende gave a loud order, and countless heralds shouted along.

Li Yuanxing, who was sitting on the Weiyuan, said very calmly at this time: "I hope they don't use water to extinguish the fire!" ”

"Gorou is wrong, some of the Goguryeo soldiers have already carried buckets."

Li Yuanxing shook his head gently.

The crow was filled with oil, and some phosphorus had seeped into it, so it was an ordinary dead end to extinguish the fire with water.

The fire burned, and a raging fire broke out on the fifty-zhang long city wall, and countless Goguryeo soldiers screamed and jumped down the city with flames all over their bodies, and some people were pouring water, but the water made the fire seem to become bigger.

Yizhi Wende covered his chest and gritted his teeth fiercely: "Prepare for the civil war in the city!" ”

Niu Jinda knew very well how terrible this Divine Fire Flying Crow was, how many people were burned to death on the city wall, and only sand could extinguish the fire. But now is not the time for mercy or compassion.

"Heavy artillery, No. 1 and No. 2 bombed the city gates. No. 3 and No. 4 bomb the piles in the suspension bridge. Great Qin crossbow array, 10,000 people are ready. The auxiliaries are ready to fill the river, and the building carts and siege vehicles are moving forward! ”

Now it was a large-scale siege, and there were 20,000 auxiliaries pushing carts and carrying sandbags to rush forward.

There are 10,000 strong crossbowmen to suppress the formation, Niu Jinda is not afraid of anything, even if you put out the fire on the city wall, another round of strong crossbows will ensure that there is enough time to fill the moat. What's more, blowing up the city gates, letting the drawbridge go down, and the soldiers who rushed over would not give the Goguryeo people a chance to go up the city wall again.

As for the civil war in the city, it can no longer be regarded as a vicious war.

In the air, Li Yuanxing ordered: "Send a message, the Weiyuan is ready to speed up, and the target is Jian'an City!" ”

The flying boat left, and for the first time, Etoshi Wende felt endless despair. The Tang army took the walls of Xiongcheng without much effort, and he believed that fighting a civil war in the city would only increase the casualties of the Tang army, and that the Tang army must have more and more terrible means.

With that powerful crossbow array alone, he was helpless.

It didn't matter who was sitting on the huge flying boat in the air. Leaving at this time only means that the battle has been decided.

Yizhi Wende was not reconciled, and after turning around in place a few times, he ordered loudly: "Set fire to the whole city, burn the granary, and prepare to break out of the city." ”

Li Yuanxing sat on the flying boat, saw the actions in the city, and asked: "Wu Bin, the Goguryeo people are preparing to burn the city to break through, do you think this king should leave like this at this time, or give General Niu a wake-up call!" ”

"Wu Bin doesn't dare, Wu Bin is guilty!"

"I don't blame you, this king is just asking, I helped General Niu at this time. As you say, glory to the military! ”

Wu Bin made a one-knee kneeling salute: "Your Highness, the last general thinks that he should be reminded that the escape of Yizhi Wende will inevitably affect the overall layout of Li Shangshu, and the last general will observe the formation of General Niu besieging the city, in case Yizhi Wende breaks through to the north, it will inevitably cause the death of at least five thousand soldiers." ”

"Good vision, order Zhenyuan to block the way to escape from Beicheng, and then tell Niu Jinda."

It's really stupid to put a powerful war machine without it, and it's almost enough to save face. At least Li Yuanxing thinks so, Wu Bin is not a rigid person, at a critical time in the war, victory is more important than face, and the lives of the sergeants are even more important than face.

The Weiyuan kept its course unchanged, and the Zhenyuan moved to the north of Anshi.

With just this one action, Niu Jinda knew that there might be a change in the city.

After all, the speed of the flying boat was faster than the reaction of Niu Jinda's subordinates, and before Niu Jinda gave the order, a huge voice came from the air: "General Niu, the enemy army is ready to set fire to the city, and then break through." Heavy troops were gathered there in Beicheng, and in order to avoid damage, His Highness ordered Beicheng to be sealed! ”

Sealed the North City?

Niu Jinda was stunned, and the door of the Zhenyuan warehouse was fully opened, and there was no more accurate bomb dropping by people. It is directly a rainstorm, a small board car, and the whole vehicle will pour the lit bamboo tube down.

The raindrop-like fireball instantly surrounded all the military camps and neighborhoods in the four cities north of Anshi City with a sea of flames.

"General Niu, farewell!" Wu Bin shouted in the air again.

Niu Jinda smiled bitterly and shook his head, he knew that if His Royal Highness King Qin really did it himself, this Anshi City would not be a problem at all. The city of Pyongyang is the capital of Goguryeo, and it can all fall in one morning, let alone one city of Anse. This is just a chance to give his infantry and cavalry a chance to train.

"Order, outside the city gate, the garrison inside the city gate to stop the attack. Unleash the air cavalry reconnaissance. ”

The air rider is a glider, and Niu Jinda thinks that it is necessary for him to observe Anshi City in the sky for a good time, and then reformulate the plan of the attack, and be sure to win all.

"Your Highness, Anshi City will be completely controlled within three days." Lu Maofeng was also talking to Li Yuanxing next to him.

Three days, Li Yuanxing nodded, this time is quite normal.

Control is different from destroying a city, it is easy to destroy a city, but it is not easy to control the whole city. It is impossible to kill all the people in the city, and those who surrender must be allowed, and there must be suppression and pacification for the common people. Moreover, there must have been some Goguryeo soldiers who took off their uniforms and fled to the homes of the common people to hide.

The most difficult thing is that Etozhi Wende can't escape, and he will definitely fight to the death.

The battle of Zuihou in Anshi City is a street battle in the city.

"After the city of Jian'an was replenished with coal, it was a day off. Tomorrow I will go to see if the city of Wunu Mountain will be taken, and the south of Anshi City will go all the way to Beisha City, and it is best to persuade you to surrender. These places are already our Datang's, and there will be less destruction, otherwise it will cost money to rebuild in the future. When Li Yuanxing spoke, his eyes were no longer focused on Anshi City.

Li Yuanxing said without a word, Lu Maofeng just nodded stupidly, but a scribe wrote down Li Yuanxing's words. (To be continued......)
