In the middle of the dark night, and in the heavy rain, the defenders on the city wall could only light torches in the city gate tower and the dish tower, and they could not detect the movements of a light master like Zhu Biao.

Clearing one disc building after another, Zhu Biao flashed in, and with a wave of his palm, Zhou Bing, who had a quick response, was about to scream, and the majestic palm wind also pressed all their voices back into his stomach.

Zhu Biao's actions were faster than expected, and soon the three connected disc towers were cleaned up, and the thirty people under the city grabbed the soft rope hanging from the city head, and all of them boarded the city without making a sound.

Of course, Zhu Biao will not still act according to the original plan, since he has not been exposed, he will continue to assassinate, with a wave of his hand, under the secret command, the five with the highest light skills of thirty people will walk in the front and continue to sneak towards the city tower.

The crackling raindrops fell and fell on Zhu Biao's body. He held his breath all over his body, and at this time, he was like a cold-blooded poisonous snake, wandering in the shadows.

He was the first of the five, but he didn't do it himself. In addition to the occasional check and fill in the gaps, Zhu Biao's more important thing is to wait for the appearance of Zhou Jun's master.

It is impossible that there are no masters in the 100,000 Zhou army, and since there are masters, it is impossible for the main general of the Zhou army not to arrange some of them to guard the city wall.

Zhu Biao's plate tower is about a mile long from the city gate tower, that is, one hundred and sixty or seventy zhang, this distance is just ten ups and downs for him who is sprinting at full speed, and he blinks and blinks. Zhu Biao didn't think that his group could really sneak to the side of the city gate tower without moving before being discovered, but after only walking less than 20 zhang, he was seen by the Zhou soldiers on patrol, which made him too discouraged.

"Kill—"

A loud battle sounded at the head of the city, and the sound of horses' hooves also sounded outside the city. The remnants of Zhu Biao's pro-army infantry armor, the remnants of the trapped camp, and the elite selected by Xing Zuochang from hundreds of thousands of Tang troops, a total of 10,000 assault troops. Riding horses towards the city.

Dozens of modified carriages loaded with bed crossbows were also galloping, and when they were sixty or seventy zhang away from the city, the carriage turned around, opened the back door of the carriage, and spat arrows. A spear-like feather arrow was deeply sunk into the city bricks, dozens of people jumped first, and a large number of Tang army elites waited in an orderly manner under the city.

"Death—"

With a wave of his hand, drops of rain turned into crystal clear ice droplets, taking advantage of the hurricane-like palm power, spraying jets. A sweep is a piece.

The Zhou army at the head of the city was purely appreciating the power of modern shotguns. And this 'Zhu Biao' brand shotgun is still super caliber.

The defenders of the city, who were caught off guard, were killed and retreated. The five of them can block the 'sprint' of Zhu Biao's two grandmaster-level masters. Like a hot knife cutting butter, before the 10,000 elite soldiers outside the city could reach the city, the two of them took the lead in entering the city gate.

And the remaining twenty-nine masters, whose strength is naturally inferior to Zhu Biao, can be used to deal with ordinary military masters and elite soldiers, it is a piece of cake.

If you don't have speed, you can also change it to 'flat push'. Twenty-nine men were slow in speed, but they caused no less panic to the defenders.

The city gate has been broken, but the city gate of the urn city is still very intact. It was an obstacle for the Tang army to capture Yanqing City. The cave in the city gate was full of mud and sand, but Zhu Biao knew that the other side of the city gate had been hollowed out in half.

Tens of thousands of Tang troops were killed in battle, effect. There are still some.

"Boom, boom—"

The eighteen palms of the dragon can open the mountain, and it can be patted on the pile of seven or eight zhang thick in the city gate hole, but it is also muddy and sunk into the sea. It doesn't work at all. What Zhu Biao has to do is to exert all his strength to move out the bags of Chenmendong sand in the shortest possible time.

The thirty masters who advanced and retreated with him hurriedly responded to the Tang army under the city. On the other side is Zhu Biao, who is guarding the luck.

The city was in complete chaos, and in the midst of the shouts, the city gate finally opened, and the army that had been waiting for a long time poured into it in an instant, holding long knives and cutting down people.

In the darkness, the sword light flew, sparks flew everywhere, and the sound of killing was everywhere.

The earth-shattering sound of killing finally woke up the defender who had just fallen asleep at the foothold, and he jumped up suddenly, because he was sleeping with his clothes closed, and only grabbed his weapon and ran out.

What catches the eye is a battlefield where one side is unstoppable and the other side is losing and retreating.

Looking at the Tang army that poured into the city, slaughtering like a hungry wolf, only one thought came to the mind of the main general: "So fast? ”

So soon, a city was about to be broken, and the speed and efficiency of the Tang Army were too amazing.

Xing Zuochang silently waited for the news to come back, and at dawn, a general finally came to report: "Governor, the city has been cleared." ”

When Xing Zuochang personally raised the rear army and entered the county town, he found that the city was not deserted at this time, and countless disarmed Zhou soldiers were wearing simple clothes and were holding all kinds of stretchers, dragging the corpses to the carts, and when the carts were full, they dragged them away far away.

One by one, they were busy panting.

"The governor pleases, the officials and generals in the city are inside." Zhu Biao arched his hand towards Xing Zuochang and gestured to the county guard behind him.

Xing Zuochang looked at the back of Zhu Biao and led people to leave, and then entered the county guard's mansion, only to see that the corridors and eaves were chaotic, and the high-spirited Tang Army soldiers were standing, and a large number of officials were taken into custody. Pity these nobles, they hugged each other on weekdays, but now they are all unbearable, and when they saw Xing Zuochang, someone immediately knelt down.

Dignity and personality are all thrown away.

Xing Zuochang didn't look at these guts people, and he was not in a very good mood at the moment.

It is true that Zhu Biao led people to take the city, but if the Zhou army defended the city every time in the future, it would be terrible.

Besides, the combat effectiveness of the Zhou army is really good. If it weren't for Zhu Biao's elite pro-army breaking into the city, he would have killed all the way through, and Zhu Biao had cut down the main general of the Zhou army in a daze, completely disrupting the establishment and command of the Zhou army, and also giving the morale of the Zhou army a hard blow.

The last point is the heart of the generals of the Zhou army, the captain and the generals above this level, fifty percent of them died in battle, three percent led the troops to flee, and less than two percent of the people led the troops to surrender after seeing that the situation was not good. Liu Zhongru not only trained his troops well, but also led the troops very loyally and bravely. After more than one member of the Zhou army will be besieged, they will fight to the death and resist to the end. Seeing that the general trend has gone, he is afraid that he will become a prisoner and kill himself, which makes Xing Zuochang sigh.

In Xing Zuochang's opinion. Many of these people may be unknown young generals, but they are much more bloody and courageous than some so-called celebrities and famous generals. Perhaps, in another way, these people are the backbone and backbone of an army.

Such a person is the most appreciated by Xing Zuochang, so he is in no mood to pay attention to those generals now.

The town of Wendger.

Dozens of thunderbolts were pushed up to the city, and under the order of the military commander, the winch creaked up, reaching a very steep angle, pushing the groove and pulling the bucket. Fill in the boulders.

Jun Sima shouted and ordered: "Maximum charge winding!" ”

Three ox carts came to the thunderbolt with dirt bags, and the soldiers threw the dirt bags into the weight box one by one, and their bows were faintly tense.

"Put!" With an order, dozens of thunderbolts were released together, only to see the boulder roaring through the air, time was like a pause, and the sound of "booming" in the city resounded, and the dust was filled.

Zhong Gelin's body was shocked. I could barely stand still, and there was a commotion in front of and behind me.

"General, Tang Wei is now concentrating on a large thunderbolt to attack the head of the city, and after a long time, I am afraid that this city wall will not be able to stand it!" Someone stepped forward and said anxiously.

Zhong Gelin is as if he has not heard of it. Just look below.

The open space under the county town is densely covered with Tang troops waving banners, and teams of well-dressed soldiers are neat and tidy outside the land of a hundred zhang.

The military formation stretched for miles. Standing still, except for the occasional neighing of war horses, it was silent.

But the army did not move. However, from time to time, there were also well-armored cavalry squads, who rode to the front of the city, took bows and flew away, and after accurately creating a miserable cry behind the battlements, they laughed loudly, arousing the applause of the Tang army.

"What a torturer!" Zhong Gelin muttered, his face grim.

The army is most afraid of being stunned and doing nothing, hundreds of thousands of Tang troops are in front, just watching the thunderbolt car wield, and the heart will be excited at first, but after a long time, it will be just as boring. This squad of cavalry galloped to show off its might, which seemed meaningless, but it was very good to bring it into the army to boost morale and resolve depression.

Of course, the biggest threat to Wendshire today is still the Thunderbolt. After three days of bombardment, the city wall has been quite damaged, many sections of the city wall have become 'bald', and the disc towers and battlements have all been destroyed. Now dozens of thunderbolts are attacking one by one, and Zhong Gelin is even more watching the cracks in the city wall continue to appear, spider web-like cracks.

On the high towers of the city, although there were not many casualties in the city due to continuous bombardment, the uneasiness in his heart did not diminish at all, and he could only be beaten, not attacked, and the morale of the army had dropped a lot.

Everyone knows the truth that a lonely city is difficult to defend, but where do you still have rescuers?

When Liu Dudu finished integrating the rest of the soldiers and horses, the first thing he wanted to do would never be to rescue Wende County, but to 'strengthen' the counties in the western region in an all-round way. According to the danger, the Tang army's military superiority was wiped out, and the imperial army continued to hold on to Daizhou.

He and Wende County have always been sacrificed outcasts!

"Boom!" The stone bullets continued to attack, and there were a series of loud noises, and one of the walls was a large area, dust and rubble, and the few soldiers who had not been able to dodge did not fall, but they were scarred like the seriously wounded soldiers.

Outside the city, hundreds of thousands of Tang troops cheered together, deafening, and in a moment, the order to withdraw the army sounded.

The fine cavalry rode forward, and the left and right phalanxes stepped forward, and the military formation of thunderbolt carts slowly retreated to the camp under cover in an orderly manner.

At this time, the evening sunset shone, the twilight was dim, the remnant sun was like blood, and the camp rose with curling fireworks, which seemed to be inlaid with a circle of red blood light in the blood-colored remnant sun.

"It's boring, it's boring! This punishment is too heavy, right? Dou Bing grumbled. Another day passed in such a daze.

Zhu Biao didn't speak.

"What else can you do if you're not in a daze? Zhou Jun shrank his head and hid in the city like a turtle. Liu Zhongru is a gecko, and he is really ruthless. ”

Han Gang, Han Meng's brothers wilted.

"Fighting a war requires enduring loneliness. Now that there is no place for cavalry in the war, what next? There will always be a day when we are needed, just wait. ”

Zhu Biao sat down and drank tea refreshed.

More than a month later, the time has come to mid-April.

The war in Daizhou is still like a quagmire, deeply scorched.

The Zhou army, which insisted on defending the city, gained a firm foothold again after a major defeat, and Liu Zhongru commanded seven or eight hundred thousand Zhou troops under the name of the 'fake' governor, firmly entrenched in the three counties in the western border of Daizhou.

At the beginning of April, Zhu Biao led his troops into Yizhou, and the troops were approaching Cangzhou.

He is very tolerant of loneliness, but he has even more eyesight. Today's Daizhou battlefield is not a place where cavalry should be led at all. Especially the elite he led who had just given the Zhou army a blow.

How many troops did Tang Sheng have under Haizhou Assassin Shi after all?

500,000, 600,000? Or 700,000?

Only the original 300,000 soldiers must be far more, but according to the intelligence of Chen Kui, the envoy of Cangzhou, the total strength of Tang Sheng's troops is definitely not more than 700,000, because in the months of confronting Tang Sheng, the total number of soldiers and horses of Chen Kui's Cangzhou army, which is evenly matched, is 5.67 million, less than 600,000.

The combat effectiveness of the armies on both sides is about the same, and if the total number of Haizhou troops can reach 700,000, Chen Kui will not still occupy the 73 counties of Haizhou.

Therefore, Chen Kui is extremely welcoming to Zhu Biao. Zhu Biao, a force of 150,000 iron cavalry that has been restored to its original size, is definitely a force that can change the balance of the battle on the Canghai battlefield. As for why Zhu Biao fought a lot, the number was still 150,000 cavalry, which could only be said to be an exchange between him and Xing Zuochang.

With more than 50,000 security troops and 100,000 prisoners of war in exchange for a cavalry that could not be ridden by 20,000, Zhu Biao could not say that he had lost money, but he was by no means taking advantage.

After the Zhou army was captured, as long as it was not a diehard. It's usually possible to recruit 'anyway'. Zhu Biao is tantamount to giving Xing Zuochang an army of 150,000!

At the beginning of May, the Canghai battlefield was in full swing, and the fighting was extremely fierce. But the situation is no longer a two-phase attack, but the Cangzhou army has always pressed the Haizhou army.

On the Lianshui battlefield. The armies of both sides fought back and forth on both sides of the Lianshui, and the water was full of floating corpses, and the blood stained the river red.

On the Cangzhou side of the army is Chen Kui, and on the side of the Haizhou army is Tang Sheng. The bosses on both sides are on the front line to supervise the battle. The tragedy of the battle can be imagined.

The generals of both sides also stood on the front line and commanded the soldiers to fight fiercely. There are even people who are desperate for themselves, and repeatedly bring brave soldiers to forcibly break through and kill the enemy directly.

Until Zhu Biao took advantage of a sudden gale. After a fire burned the small but very entangled Lianshui Shui Division Battalion of the Haizhou Army, he led 150,000 cavalry to completely confuse Tang Sheng's eyes in a toss, and finally 30,000 Hedong elite cavalry successfully crossed the river and entered the back of the Haizhou Army on the east side of Lianshui under the thousands of defenses of the Haizhou Army, and then easily broke the 100,000 Haizhou Army infantry cavalry in a battle, and this bloody battle came to an end.

And without the stumbling rope of Lianshui, the 150,000 iron horsemen can be regarded as completely spreading their legs and feet. Together with the 50,000 Cangzhou cavalry handed over to Zhu Biao by Chen Kui, Zhu Biao, whose cavalry reached an unprecedented scale of 200,000, completely paralyzed the Haizhou army's military material transfer channel, just like dealing with Liu Zhongru's Daizhou army. While putting a heavy shackle on the Haizhou Army, it also faintly divided its various departments.

In July, the total strength of Chen Kui's troops had exceeded 700,000, and the infantry troops used in the Battle of Haizhou had also exceeded 500,000 in history.

The army has been killed under the city of Donghai County, Haizhou Prefecture!

Thorn Mansion

It was raining heavily, and it was dark, and although it was daytime, lamps and candles were already lit in some important places in the mansion.

There were even lamps and candles lit in the well-defended study, and Tang Sheng was sitting on the upper seat, holding a scroll in his hand and reading.

The shouts of killing from time to time outside did not make him feel flustered.

Yes, he is calm.

Haizhou is not a joke, this is the northeasternmost state of the Central Plains, near the sea. The powerful sailor is a postcard of Haizhou in history, just like the iron horse of Youzhou.

Although this time is not as good as the 200-year-old period of the founding of the country, in order to prevent the Japanese state, there are 50,000 foreign sea divisions in Haizhou.

Yes, the sailors can't be used on the shore, that is, the 200,000 sailors in the heyday of Haizhou, and they are just as scummy for land warfare.

Tang Sheng was confident that the East China Sea City had a wide and deep moat, and its defense was famous all over the world.

The hundred-zhang wide moat, drawn from the living water, does not condense in winter, can sail inside, and can prevent the enemy from approaching the city.

Whale waves in the East China Sea, the four big characters are not joking.

The city wall is high and heavy, the stone used is taken from a local spar in the East China Sea, the material is unique, smooth and extremely strong, the stone is smeared with sticky material, and the needle cannot be inserted between the gaps.

Such a city wall, such a moat, even if you use a thunderbolt with the longest range, the effect is not enough.

Before retreating into Donghai City, Tang Sheng also deliberately took out three hundred ships and seven thousand elites from the Outer Sea Division and brought them into the city. In addition, the 200,000 troops he gathered in the city, Donghai City had sufficient soldiers, complete weapons, abundant food, and a flowing water source, and the siege of 600,000 foot cavalry troops outside did not bring him and Donghai City any inconvenience at all.

With such a strong defense, it was no wonder that Tang Sheng was so calm.

This offensive and defensive battle has begun, but for the result, all the Haizhou soldiers and civilians are full of confidence, and they have swept away the discouragement of successive defeats in the previous battles.

Chen Kui relied on the momentum of Zhu Biao's 150,000 cavalry to push away his hundreds of thousands of troops and force himself to his current position. However, can the cavalry cross the Baizhang River on horseback, and can they ride directly to the ten-zhang high fortified city?

Tang Sheng could not get the favorable support of the Zhou army and lost most of Haizhou, causing Donghai City to become a lonely city, but he was still in a good mood.

In the history of the dynasties, after the moat of Donghai City became its current scale, unless the soldiers and civilians in the city surrendered voluntarily, other siege battles never lasted less than a year.

Tang Sheng didn't believe that the imperial court would still 'inaction' a year later, if so, then the East China Sea would be lost. It was the court itself that lost it, not me Tang Sheng.

"There's still a lot to be done!" When Chen Kui and Zhu Biao couldn't attack for a long time, when the imperial army came to help......

Now is the beginning, and the outcome of a qiē is still undecided! (To be continued)
