Chapter 182: Siege

The army of 1.2 million troops, mighty and mighty, like a black torrent, marched into the distance in an orderly manner.

The flag is swaggering, like a flowing cloud, covering the sky and the sun.

The main force of the army traveled for half a month before reaching Liaodong City.

However, at this time, most of the materials in Liaodong City have been looted.

Apparently......

The Goguryeo army that invaded this time was not stupid, it only came for the materials in Liaodong City, and really invaded the territory of the Great Sui.

In their opinion, the Great Sui is now unable to continue the war, even if they learn the news of the invasion and send reinforcements to Liaodong City, in the face of Liaodong City, which has long been empty, they can only return in vain and will not continue to pursue.

But he didn't want to, this time Yang Guang had already made up his mind to break the cauldron and personally lead an army of 1.2 million to conquer Liaodong, which was bound to conquer Goguryeo!

And by this time, the vanguard was already stationed.

And took the lead in taking over the defense of the entire Liaodong City, and is organizing the residents of the city to deal with the aftermath in an orderly manner, repairing the damaged city walls, arranging manpower to maintain law and order in the city, and dealing with various problems caused by the invasion of the Goguryeo people.

"The last general, Yang Yichen, see Your Majesty—"

Yang Guang nodded, took a step forward, helped Yang Yichen up, and asked, "General Yang has worked hard, how is the situation in the city now?" ”

"Your Majesty's ......"

Yang Yichen arched his hand and said: "I was ordered to lead the army to go, but when we came to the city, the Goguryeo people had already abandoned the city and crossed the Liao River...... Most of the inhabitants of the city have settled down now, but the grain and grass reserves are empty......"

"Bastard—"

An angry shout came out of Yang Guang's mouth.

In Yang Guang's eyes, Goguryeo was just a piece of fat on the side of the couch, but he invaded three times or four times, and he had already hated it in his heart, and immediately announced: "Spread my will, leave 10,000 horses to be stationed in the city, and the rest of the men will camp and rest outside the city, and tomorrow the third watch will light a fire, and the fifth watch will make food, and when the time comes, immediately cut down wood and cross the river, and attack Liaohe City!" ”

"Yes, yes!"

The order spread layer by layer, and the army began to camp in an orderly manner.

The ancients were also particular about camping, not only to choose a place with open terrain that does not affect the field of vision, but also to lay trenches and various fences around the camp.

And, at night, it is necessary to organize people to take turns to keep vigil.

As for those who single-handedly entered the camp, it was a joke.

Not to mention how to blend into the camp alone under this heavy siege.

Even if you get in, in the face of so many camps, how can you tell which one is the boss's camp?

Of course......

If you reach the level of a grandmaster, among the millions of troops, you can come and go freely.

Even if you encounter danger, you will feel it in the dark.

But in this big camp, there is Ye Chen, a land true immortal-like figure, which is enough to sense the wind and grass in any place around the big camp.

Even if it is a grandmaster, in front of him, it is only a slightly stronger ant.

Even if a character like Fu Cailin dares to come to attack at night, there is no return......

…………

Nothing was said all night.

Although marching and fighting is an extremely difficult thing, for a person of Ye Chen's level, no matter how bad a place is, it is naturally nothing to survive.

As for Li Yuanba.

Although the latter is the son of a family, due to his own strange illness, he is not treated well by Li Yuan, and his life in the past ten years is not much better than that in the army.

In addition, Ye Chen deliberately passed on a set of cultivation techniques to the other party, so that Li Yuanba, a martial idiot, would be like a treasure.

During this time, Li Yuanba was silently practicing martial arts, and from time to time he was competing with some fierce generals in the army......

Over time, he even gained a lot of prestige in the army!

The next day, when it was dark, the army had already made a fire and was ready to go.

After less than half a day of marching, the Liaohe River had already come into view.

"Logging, crossing the river!"

Seeing this scene, some generals immediately began to order.

After that, the army began to cut down the surrounding trees, make simple rafts, and began to cross the river in an organized manner.

After everything was ready, Liaodong County also appeared in front of the Sui army.

"Your Majesty, siege equipment has not yet been prepared."

The army traveled a long distance, and it was naturally impossible to carry such heavy siege equipment along the way, not to mention how to keep it, in case it was attacked by the enemy and destroyed by the opportunity, it was equivalent to drawing water with a bamboo basket!

So......

Most of these siege equipment are made from local materials.

"Arrange manpower and prepare for the siege...... I'm going to sleep in this Liaohe City today! ”

Yang Guang's words made many people understand His Majesty's determination, and they didn't say anything, but turned their heads and ordered.

"Someone, prepare siege equipment, go collect the boulders—"

"Yes!"

The so-called siege equipment, in addition to the ladders that are often seen in film and television dramas, there are also siege vehicles, catapults and other things.

The former is huge, requires multiple people to work together, and relies on huge inertia to hit the city gate.

It has a huge lethal power against the city gates!

Catapults, on the other hand, use the principle of leverage to throw some huge stones at the enemy on the city wall and use them to attack.

In the cold weapon war, the power is also amazing.

But......

Perhaps it is because the world of the Tang Dynasty Double Dragon is an out-and-out martial arts world, and all kinds of martial arts masters are not uncommon.

In order to prevent these masters from climbing over the city wall at will, they often build the city wall to a height of ten or twenty zhang, so that those martial arts masters will sigh with joy......

That's why.

Even after preparing a lot of siege equipment, it took a lot of time to face this Liaohe City.

"Click, click."

A series of ladders ten feet high were erected on the city wall.

Naturally, there are many soldiers who are not afraid of death, and they began to climb along the ladder.

Below, there are siege engines and catapults, constantly ramming the city walls, as if they were hitting the hearts of the defenders......

But these people did not give up, but used extremely vicious methods to fight back.

"Pour the gold juice!"

The so-called gold juice is not some kind of gold melting.

Rather, it is some feces and urine collected in advance, which are boiled and turned into hot juice.

"Whoa!"

Several large vats of gold juice were carried to the city walls and began to pour down the ladder.

Suddenly, those soldiers who were contaminated with the golden juice broke their hot skin and flesh one by one, like dumplings in the same pot, fell down from under the ten-zhang high cloud ladder.

Even if a soldier infected by the gold juice does not fall to his death, he will not be able to be treated because of the wound infection and the lack of antibiotics and other medicines.

can only pass away with endless pain......
