&1t;h3 css="read_tit">Chapter 156 Iron Rider Highlights the Sound of Swords and Spears (1) &1t;/h3>
The building ship in the Han Dynasty has been developed to a very high level, as early as the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, the Han Dynasty sailors have been equipped with a large number of four-story ships that can carry up to 1,000 soldiers on expeditions, to the end of the Han Dynasty, it is to reach a peak, the navigation building ship of the Jiangdong counties is as high as more than ten zhang, three masts before and after, with tail rudder, including the bottom warehouse, a total of four layers, can carry up to 3,000 soldiers, has the ability to sail in the ocean.
In contrast, although the Liaodong Army's building ship technology has not reached such a height, each warship can be fully loaded with more than 800 soldiers, even if 20 of its more than 80 warships are logistics baggage ships, and all ships are not fully loaded, its total strength is as much as 23,000, while the Yanchang garrison is only a little more than 2,000, even if more than 300 Yanding are added, the number of soldiers who can fight is less than 2,400, and the strength between the two sides is undoubtedly too great.
"Close the front and back gates, and all departments will immediately go to the city to prepare for war!"
Although Youzhou is near the sea, the object of defense has always been the nomads outside the Guan, as for the sea power, it has never been, not only when Gongsun Zan was in charge, but also in the previous years, but it does not prevent the people in the army from understanding the strongest troops of the naval division such as Lou Chuan, because of this, although the fleet of the Liaodong Army has not yet docked, Yan Gao has already determined the general scale of the incoming enemy, and after urgently sending several messengers for help, he completely abandoned the fortifications on the periphery and shrunk the whole army into the reservoir area.
"Second son, salt, a lot of salt ......"
Yan Gao Department such a contraction, the huge salt field in addition to the reservoir area, the rest of the place is all empty city, from both sides of the salt field on both sides of the shore of the Liaodong army from the reservoir area on both sides of the wall turned into the salt field, after a period of rummaging, suddenly there is a surprise crystal pond by the existence of a salt mountain, overjoyed, immediately a soldier rushed from the gate to Gongsun Gong's front, even the atmosphere did not have time to take a breath, it was already a surprise scream.
"Let's go, let's go!"
In these years, salt is equal to money, don't look at Liaodong also has a salt farm, but the method of boiling sea salt is time-consuming and costly, not to mention, it is necessary to get a large amount of salt at the turn of spring and summer every year, barely enough for personal use, and it is impossible to smuggle salt to various places on a large scale like Youzhou, therefore, even if he knows that a large amount of salt will be obtained this time, but when the soldier came to report, Gongsun Gong still could not hold back the excitement surging in his heart, and he also ignored the fact that the salt field had not yet been cleared, and led his personal guards to break into the salt field with a roar.
No one will not like money, in the face of the salt piled up like a mountain, not only ordinary soldiers can vigorously put salt in the waist jacket, some generals are also shouting that their own soldiers use sacks and other things to contain salt, and some soldiers who have full coats actually take off their pants and are loading salt, the whole salt mountain can be described as a mess, at this time, if the Youzhou army takes advantage of the situation to kill, it will be able to win a big victory, but Yan Gao hesitated for a while, and he didn't dare to give such an order, there is no side, just because there are not many soldiers under his command, it is easy to rush out, in case the follow-up soldiers and horses of the Liaodong Army are killed in the salt field, I am afraid that it will be difficult to come back, and I think of this, Yan Gao could only helplessly watch the ugliness of the soldiers of the Liaodong Army in the distance on the wall grabbing salt.
"Bastard, what are you doing, stop Lao Tzu, whoever dares to grab salt again will be killed!"
This march entered the salt field, Gongsun Gongdang was dumbfounded, and watched the crazy behavior of his soldiers in amazement, and after a long period of stunned, he finally came to his senses, only to see one of them draw the sword at his waist, and roar angrily.
Is Gongsun Gong's order useful? The answer is yes, but it is really no different from nothing, without him, except for a very small number of soldiers who have awakened and have already been satisfied with the order to retreat, the vast majority of the soldiers who have snatched the red eyes do not care what Gongsun Gong is talking about, but just blindly bury their heads in their own blankets or pants to pull Bai Jingjing's salt.
"A bunch of dogs, personal guards, give it to me, and those who dare to grab salt will be killed!"
Seeing that no one listened to his orders, Gongsun Gong was completely furious, and regardless of whether it would provoke a mutiny, he waved the three-foot Qingfeng Sword in his hand and roared like thunder.
"No!"
Gongsun Gong gave an order, and the soldiers of the pro-guard army, who had already seen the greed, immediately responded to the promise and rushed to the salt mountain, regardless of the ground, they were all chopping and killing indiscriminately, and in the face of such a bloody lesson, the soldiers of the vanguard who were coaxing themselves to grab salt were finally frightened to wake up, and all the people in the hula were scattered.
"Zhao Qi, this general Linger led a battalion of soldiers to guard the salt mountain here, and if anyone dared to approach, they would all be killed, and the rest of the troops would immediately surround the reservoir area and give Lao Tzu to enter, and the chickens and dogs would not be left!"
After suppressing the bombardment of the vanguard troops, Gongsun Gong's anger actually did not diminish much, but at this time he no longer planned to investigate the responsibility of the vanguard troops, but planned to completely wipe out the defenders in the reservoir area, so as to quickly lead his troops to Jixian County to complete the important task assigned by his father.
In order to keep dry and defend against the astronomical tide, the reservoir area of the salt field is not built in the middle of the salt field, but around a hill in the southeast corner of the salt field, all around are high walls, more than a dozen warehouses are all built according to the mountain, there is a door before and after the reservoir area, the east side facing the sea is the entrance, the west gate is the exit, all are two copper-covered wooden doors, thick and incomparable, there is more city gate tower as a cover, the wall is eight zhang high, three zhang wide, all are bluestone bases, extremely strong, the wall is equipped with a city crossbow, Defensive facilities such as arrow towers can be used as military fortresses, which is why Gongsun knew that the Liaodong Army would raid the Yuyang Salt Farm, and he never sent more troops to garrison here.
"Bang, bang, bang......"
The sneak attack of the Liaodong Army was extremely well prepared, twenty transport ships were loaded with a lot of ballistas and trebuchets, under the strict order of Gongsun Gong, a large number of siege equipment was quickly moved ashore, at the end of the four o'clock, the Liaodong Army was finally ready to begin the battle of besieging the reservoir area, with as many as 30 ballistas and nearly 100 family force trebuchets to fight the vanguard, to the city head of the reservoir area can be vigorously poured firepower, although the accuracy is actually limited, but the momentum is huge, in this regard, Yan Gao did not dare to take it lightly, so that the city crossbow on the head of the city also spontaneously counterattacked, the two sides you come and go to fight in full swing......
