"Attack with all your troops!"

Wu Sangui had an iron shield in his left hand and a Yanling knife in his right hand, and personally led the infantry to attack a town in the south of Yangdu County.

The lord who owns the town recruited strong men to defend the city, and shouted down uneasily: "Qi Xiaobai, we are the same guild, why are you attacking my territory?" ”

Qi Xiaobai rode a war horse and appeared below the town.

He looked indifferently at the members of the guild.

Following Wu Sangui, he learned a truth - if you choose to embark on the road of chasing the Central Plains, you can't pay attention to the so-called affection. Only when interests come first can we become heroes.

"You didn't even think of me as the president before, and I can only choose to annex your lord. An unreliable alliance is not as good as a complete force. Surrender me now, and you can still live. If the town is broken and surrendered, there is only one way to die! ”

Qi Xiaobai ordered Wu Sangui to storm the town, and the town was in danger.

"I ...... I give up! ”

The lord who was defending the town saw that he couldn't stop Wu Sangui, so he could only choose to surrender to Qi Xiaobai.

Qi Xiaobai was the largest lord of the Battle Soul Guild, and he made Wu Sangui take command and swept away the other lords of the Battle Soul Guild.

The guild was already a constraint to him, making it nominally difficult for him to annex the territory of the other lords of the guild, but now he had torn his face with the other lords of the guild.

"There are still two towns left in Yangdu County that have not yet been captured. After the capture of these two towns, we can go south again to attack Kaiyang County and annex the territory of the Wolf Guild. ”

Qi Xiaobai was ambitious, and once he unified the southern part of Yangdu County, he would have the opportunity to attack Xueyue Town again. This time he will not lose again, because the biggest enemy Chu Tian and his historical generals have gone to participate in the national war.

Xia Cheng, the city Cao Xia Liang after Chu Tian left, began to open a horse market.

Considering that the scale of the horse market in Xuzhou would not be too large, she commissioned the caravan to buy a blueprint for a third-level horse market in Langya City, and then arranged craftsmen and resources to build it.

At the same time, he also had to contact the horse merchants of Langya and persuade them to settle in Xia City to trade.

The horse market can not only be used by Xia Cheng to purchase war horses, but also by ordinary players.

Chu Tian just gave the next order, but the person who carried it out had to think about it in a thousand ways.

"I don't know what you're doing, Lord Lord? Goryeo has already lost half of it, and if it captures Anseong Castle next, it should be able to come back. ”

Summer Liang holds a brush with one hand and supports his cheeks with the other.

At this time, Chu Tian was observing the city defense of Anshi City under the tall Anshi City.

Anshi Castle relies on the topography, and although the city is small, the city walls are extremely strong.

On the tenth day of the National War, the Tang army had broken through the reinforcements of Goguryeo and besieged Anshi City with all its might. The Tang army occupied the surrounding mountains, digging rocks and earth to attack the city.

"Most of the time was spent preparing for the siege."

Chu Tian saw that 200,000 people were preparing to attack the city, and he couldn't help but feel shocked by such a huge scene.

The four earth hills have been piled up four meters and are being compacted, and according to the plan, the earth mountains will be twenty or thirty meters high, so high that the archers can easily see the reality of the city and shoot arrows at the defenders.

"We also have military merits in building Tushan, although there are fewer military merits than killing the enemy, but there are almost no losses." "In order to prevent the earth mountains from being destroyed by the defenders' catapults, we deliberately reduced the number of earth mountains and made these four earth mountains as indestructible as possible. ”

Li Shimin definitely did not want to suffer heavy casualties, and it was estimated that tens of thousands of people killed in the battle would give up attacking Anshi City. Unlike our interests, he wanted to capture Anshi Castle with as few losses as possible. ”

"When the time comes, our army in the Eastern Han District will capture Anshi City no matter what."

A group of lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty privately discussed that if Li Shimin gave up attacking Anshi City because he was worried about too much loss, then they could only rely on their own forces to take Anshi City at all costs.

When Chutian returned to the camp, Mulan had woken up, and Li Lan, the military physician, was taking care of her. According to Li Lan, Hua Mulan was just in a coma because of the hard fight, and there was no big problem.

Once Mulan became serious and unyielding, Chu Tian was a little afraid that she would die.

"Lord, leave the task of attacking the city to me next."

When Mulan saw Chu Tian coming back, she took the initiative to ask for help.

"The main commander of the siege will be Zhou Yafu, the deputy general Pang Juan, and Li Guang will lead the team, as for you...... Rest well. That's an order. ”

Chu Tian would not let the generals of the cavalry department attack the city.

Sieges were generally carried out by archers and infantry.

Sometimes cavalry can also dismount and attack a city, but the cost is relatively high.

The cavalry with horses is really more noble than the infantry and archers of the same rank, otherwise there would be no so-called knight lords in the West.

Hearing that she couldn't play, Mulan's expression couldn't help but be a little dark.

What an energetic person......

Chu Tian still assigned some relatively easy tasks to Mulan: "You are responsible for patrolling, guarding, and warming...... Patrols and guards will do. ”

After laying the foundations, the earth mountain outside Anshi City became higher and higher, which made the defenders of the city feel uneasy.

Rumble!

Dozens of stones were thrown from the city and smashed on the dirt mountain, and the sand and gravel flew up!

The defenders of Anshi City used catapults to attack the Tang army's Tushan!

"Shoot back!"

The Tang army pushed catapults and began to bombard the defenders of Anshi City.

Dozens of pounds of stones hit the battlements, the battlements collapsed a corner, and a defender on the city wall could not dodge, was hit by the rubble, and his head was broken and bleeding.

Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, did not dare to relax, and always led a team of cavalry outside the city to protect the catapults and Tushan, and did not give the other party a chance to go out of the city to destroy the catapults and Tushan.

The catapults on both sides roared from time to time, and the soldiers of the Eastern Han Dynasty braved the attacks of the catapults, still piling up mountains of earth day and night.

Both sides of the battlefield realized that the earth mountain was the key to breaking the game.

Once the Tang army successfully piled up four tall earthen mountains and was condescending, the defenders in the city would lose their geographical advantage.

In addition, the Tang army also prepared a large number of ladder cars, flying ladders, crash cars, chariots, and siege towers. The Tang army even began to dig tunnels towards Anshi City, approaching the city walls.

All kinds of signs have made the pressure on Anshicheng continue to rise.

During this period, the city lord of Anshi City could not withstand this kind of pressure, and sent people to attack the Tang army at night, but the lively sound of them killing pigs and chickens was heard by the Tang army, and Li Shimin judged that they would go out of the city to sneak attack, so they had already taken precautions.

Except for a few hundred corpses left behind, the Goguryeo soldiers who went out of the city to attack did not benefit and fled back in dismay.

Anshi Castle is already a Jedi.

The Mingliang Strait, located at the southern tip of the Korean Peninsula, is about two miles wide in "Lord", and the sea water in the strait is turbulent and the water conditions are uncertain, which is a dangerous place.

Thousands of ships from the Tang Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty were close to this place.

Liu Renliang, the general of the Tang Dynasty Naval Division, looked at the map in his hand, his expression became more and more solemn, he led the Naval Division to chase here from the mouth of the Baijiang River, but he still did not see the trace of the Japanese Naval Division.

The combined forces of the naval divisions composed of the lords of Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou in the Eastern Han Dynasty were also wondering where the naval divisions of the Japanese Kingdom had gone.

The bronze finch uses a homemade sextant to check the latitude and longitude.

As the area of the Lords expanded tenfold, the sea surface also expanded, making it more difficult to determine the location using a sextant.

"Where the hell are we? Is that island Zhendo? ”

The bronzefinch squinted at the huge island that appeared in front of it.

Whether it is a boat or a ship, it is not very suitable for sailing on the sea surface with complicated weather, so the Datang sailors went south along the coastline, and at this time they needed to cross the narrow strait between Zhendao and the land.

The thousand-meter-wide strait seems not small, but compared to the thousands of ships and ships of the navy, it is very narrow.

"Ahead of the discovery of the Wa State Sailor!"

The sentinel ship at the front raised the flag of spotting the enemy, and the news reached the rear layer by layer.

On the horizon of the Mingliang Strait, warships flying the flag of the Japanese state appeared, lined up in dozens of rows on the sea surface of the strait, mighty and mighty.

"Finally found them! I didn't expect them to escape here and go up and teach them a lesson! ”

Tongque led the Eastern Han Dynasty sailors to pursue all the way, cautiously, and caught up with the Japanese sailors here, and the first reaction was to go up and annihilate them and end the naval battle as soon as possible.

But then he calmed down again: "No, why did they choose to fight here? Here it is...... Mingliang Strait! ”

"Mingliang Strait!"

Many lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty exclaimed.

During the Korean War, the famous general Yi Sunsin defeated a naval army of the Wa Kingdom in the Myeongyang Strait.

"It seems that the Lord of Dongying wants to take advantage of the water conditions in the Mingliang Strait to defeat our big ship."

After consulting with several lords, the bronze finch roughly judged the other party's intentions.

The other party tried to use the narrow terrain to block the Tang Dynasty and the Eastern Han Dynasty.

"They knew that there was no chance of winning a battle with us at the mouth of the Baijiang River, so they chose to take a gamble in the Mingliang Strait. Are we going to fight? ”

"Fight!"

"It's hard to catch up with them, and we have to defeat them no matter what!"

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty understood each other's intentions and had only two options - to confront each other, or defeat each other.

If you choose to delay the time, it will be the Wa Kingdom that wins.

"I'll go and discuss with Liu Renliang how to deal with the battle."

Tongque boarded the building ship of the Tang Dynasty sailors.

The Japanese naval division, the military generals Azumi Hirafu and Abe Hirafu, and a number of Dongying lords, confronted the Tang naval division opposite.

"The water situation in the Mingliang Strait is complicated, but I have studied in detail that we can use fireships to destroy the building ships of the Tang Navy Division. With such a narrow and complex water situation, their building ship could not avoid the fire attack at all. ”

A lord of Toei explained his tactics to the commander of the Japanese Navy, causing Azumi Hirafu and Abehirov to nod.

"There is movement in the Tang Army!"

The Japanese naval division found that the Tang naval division on the opposite side had launched an attack, and twenty building ships led hundreds of small boats into the strait.

"The Tang army has been tricked! Arrange a fireship attack! ”

The Japanese sailors sent hundreds of small boats loaded with flammable materials such as straw and sulfur, and the men rowed hard towards the opposite side.

All the lords of the Dongying District were nervously staring at the fireships approaching the Great Tang Mansion Ship.

As long as the fire attack succeeds and destroys the vanguard ships of the Tang Army's naval division, then the morale of the Tang army will decline, and the Japanese naval division will have a certain probability of victory.

"Our small boat is no match for the Tang Dynasty Lou ship at all, and fire attack is the last means of victory. The Battle of Chibi and the Battle of Liuluo Bay relied on fire attack! ”

Seeing that the ship used for fire attack was approaching the building ship, the building ship of the Tang army suddenly broke anchor, and the flexible sentry ship rushed out of the gap between the building ships, and galloped towards the opposite fire ship!

Almost at the same time, the sentinel ships of both sides caught fire, and the man jumped into the sea to flee for his life.

The fire shone on the sea, sparkling, the sentry ships on fire collided, and the planks fell apart!

Both the Tang Army and the Wa Navy Division used fireships in the same strait.

"Dongying people deserve to be our students."

Tongque and the Eastern Han Dynasty lords were also a little stunned when they saw such a situation.

Two lords of different civilizations have the same tactics in mind.

The fire lasted for an hour in the Mingliang Strait, and the sailors of the two sides were still facing each other. The fireship used by the Japanese sailors for the decisive victory did not succeed, and they could not help but cry out for pity.

In order to protect the Tang army's ship, the Eastern Han lord sacrificed his own boat.

Liu Renliang, the commander of the Tang Naval Division, has been observing the changes in the direction of the wind and the flow of water, and has been silent.

When the fireships on both sides burned down and gradually sank to the bottom of the sea, the direction of the sea breeze quietly changed.

"The time has come to win, sail and attack."

"Attack!"

Liu Renliang's ships raised the banner of an all-out attack, and twenty building ships, under the protection of a group of small boats, launched a charge against the Japanese naval division on the other side of the strait!

"Full speed ahead!"

The lord of the Eastern Han District saw that the Tang army building ship began to attack, and also launched an offensive at the same time.

The grievances between the two civilizations are not so easy to explain, in the face of the Japanese water division, the lords of the three states of the Eastern Han Dynasty attacked with all their might, unwilling to be left behind!

"The time has come to gamble on the fortune of the country, may the martial arts prosper!"

Seeing that the fire attack failed, the Dongying lord could only hope that the changeable water flow in the strait and the narrow terrain would consume the Tang army!

Row after row of Ataka boats and plank boats attack!

The husbands of both sides paddled with all their might, trying to gain an advantage in speed.

Liu Renliang was on the deck, and suddenly his feet shook, and his face changed: "The current is too fast, and it is changing rapidly!" ”

The Eastern Han lords' shoulds, walkers, and sentry boats were more keenly aware of the changes in the current.

A building ship is swept to the edge of the island by the erratic current, crashes into a nearby reef, dents in the wooden hull, and sea water pours into the cabin!

No one knows what the water conditions are like in the Mingliang Strait, this is a trap!

"It's just a fight to the death! Get ready for broadboarding! ”

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty did not have the opportunity to know how the current of the Mingliang Strait changed at this time, so they could only rely on their courage to fight each other.

"Use rockets."

Faced with such a situation, Liu Renliang did not hurry, the walls of the Tang ships were high and strong, and the crossbowmen used rockets to shoot upwards towards the sky. The rockets in the sky pierced the sky like meteors and fell into the Japanese sailors!

The boat of the Japanese sailors was hit by a rocket, and it burned easily, and the smoke rose to the sky!

Rumble! The tall building ship destroyed the two plank ships, and the advantage of the big ship was vividly reflected, not only can it easily crash into the opponent's ship, but also has the advantage of height!

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty had long discussed with Liu Renliang, and the key to their victory was the fireship first, and the rocket was the second.

"The ships of the Japanese kingdom are prone to fire."

Tongque saw a sea of fire in the sky, and the fire spread in the Mingliang Strait.
