Chapter 309: A Thousand Cannons Fired
"Report!"
"There is no enemy situation in ten miles ahead!"
"Report! There is no enemy in the twenty miles ahead! β
"Report! There is no enemy in the direction of Longxi City! β
Chun Yuyue listened to the news sent back by the spies, and was a little confused, why did Liang Jun suddenly disappear.
Did you run away?
I don't even want Longxi City.
"King, why don't we just take Longxi City in one fell swoop!" There are people who are eager to make meritorious contributions.
"Don't use this opportunity, King!"
"The King, please!"
ββ¦β¦β
The rest of the people chimed in.
They have been coveting Longxi City for a long time, and if such a strong city is taken down, it will become a nail in Liangzhou, which can not only threaten Beidi County, but also directly connect to Guanzhong.
There are also surrounding pastures, grasslands, fertile fields, and deep forests, all of which are the wealth of God to mankind!
Chun Yuyue was not affected by the temptation in front of him, he still couldn't figure it out, Li Huai shouldn't, and couldn't give up Longxi City.
This is definitely a fraud!
However, when all the people are coming, why don't you take a look?
At least to find the main force of the Liang army, it is not.
Chun Yuyue thought for a while and ordered: "Send a vanguard to investigate first, and then the Chinese army will march ten miles behind, and leave an army behind." β
He chose the safest way.
Forthwith.
Everyone is vying to be the vanguard officer first, snatching the first credit, no matter how they fight, Chun Yuyue still deliberately chose a general with a more stable personality to serve.
The Gaochang royal army continued to advance.
Soon.
The vanguard troops arrived at the foot of Longxi City, and determined that it was an empty city, so they immediately sent someone to report to the rear.
"King, Longxi City is undefended!"
"Are you sure?"
Chun Yuyue was a little unconvinced, or afraid to believe it.
"We didn't go into the city to look, but we didn't see a single soldier at the head of the city, and the gates were open." The herald replied.
"It must be that Li Huai was afraid of the king's divine might and ran away in advance."
"King, let's go into the city."
"This is given for free, don't give it for nothing."
ββ¦β¦β
Chun Yuyue was a little speechless by these people, an empty city, so they were excited like this.
Don't think about it, how could Li Huai, who spent a lot of money and built Longxi City, give up so easily.
"Probe, report again!"
Chun Yuyue ordered, and then said to the people around him, "Don't care too much about the gains and losses of one city and one place, if you can't destroy the main force of the Liang army, we will never be at peace. β
"The king is wise!"
The pioneer officer received Chun Yuyue's reply, so he first sent a team into the city to investigate, but there was really no one inside.
It's not an empty city.
I'll report back immediately.
Chun Yuyue doesn't know how to explain to his own people now, he can't be intimidated by an empty city.
So he ordered to advance to Longxi City.
Soon.
Chun Yuyue's army came to the city of Longxi, looking at this gray city, like a boulder falling from the sky.
It is said that even heavy artillery could not destroy the walls of Longxi City.
Stronger than the Great Wall!
"How's it going inside?" Chun Yuyue asked the pioneer officer who arrived first.
"King, there's nothing in it, I've already sent someone to investigate." The pioneer officer replied truthfully.
Nothing?
It means that there are no ignitions, no traps, and at the same time, no useful supplies.
"If we are besieged in Longxi City, how long can we eat our food?" Chun Yuyue asked.
Everyone looked at each other.
The Liang army was only forty or fifty thousand people, and they had an army of 100,000 people.
It's impossible to be besieged.
The quartermaster still said truthfully: "King, our grain can last for half a month, as long as Hexi is not lost, there will be no worries in half a year." β
"It's only been half a year?" Chun Yuyue was surprised.
"King, what's wrong?"
"After autumn, it's winter." Chun Yuyue said, that is to say, they can just eat food until next year.
If this war drags on, then the consequences ...... It's going to be worse than they think.
Chun Yuyue glanced at Longxi City again, and decided: "Before finding the main force of the Liang army, you can't enter the city, even if you don't have this city, we can defeat the Liang army, don't you have this confidence?" β
Everyone stood up straight and put their right hands on their chests.
"Yes!"
Distance.
Li Huai looked at the main force of King Gaochang in front of Longxi City through the telescope, and couldn't help but sigh, this guy is really cautious.
Give him a city, and he doesn't want it.
As long as Chun Yuyue dared to enter the city, Li Huai dared to forcibly cut him off and completely trapped him in Longxi City.
It's a pity he didn't get in.
But it doesn't matter, the ancients said: It's fun to have friends from afar!
It's time to show his hospitality.
"Pass my order, the whole army is not allowed to light fire, eat dry food, tonight, launch a general attack, without my order, the artillery battalion is not allowed to cease fire!"
"Yes!"
β¦β¦
Chun Yuyue set up camp outside Longxi City, his idea was very simple, the first was to prevent the Liang army from returning to the city, and second, he also had something to rely on.
At the same time, the scouts were scattered to find the main force of the Liang army.
The other side.
The Mahu South Army, which went to find Tie Mu, directly ran into the Blood Wolf Hussars halfway, and the two armies immediately started a fierce battle.
The Blood Wolf Hussar Battalion was also the first time to exert real combat effectiveness, and on the entire battlefield, only the blood was seen in the sky.
They are hussars, but they are more like a demonic cavalry!
Ma Hu Nan was killed for a while and could not find the north.
They underestimated the combat effectiveness of the Blood Wolf Hussar Battalion too much.
Tie Mu knew that the task was arduous, and after killing Ma Hu in the south, he immediately withdrew from the battle, followed the route of Ma Hu Nan, and copied the back road of the Gaochang Wang.
Another cavalry of the Gaochang royal department, Ding Qingbu, because Li Huai's main force has not been found, still wanders around the periphery and becomes a ranger.
Hexi.
To be honest, when Tu Nao received the order to stay in Hexi and attack Qi Yuanbai, he felt a little happy in his heart.
He really doesn't want to face Li Huai anymore, he hasn't forgotten the loss he suffered in Jingtai last time.
However, Li Huai was just a reckless man who dared to take command after just a few days of learning the art of war, and besides, it was basically commanded by Yang Dong at that time.
Qi Yuanbai, the general of the Liang Army he is facing now, has made great achievements, and even Li Gan admires the famous generals in the world!
At the beginning of the battle in Hexi, Qi Yuanbai saw that the enemy took the initiative to attack, and immediately became a turtle.
He retreated in the camp, relying on fortifications to defend himself, and still bombarded by you, and hurled, and stormed, and defeated, and exhausted all his tricks, and he did not send a single soldier.
Tu Nao had nothing to do about it, and after attacking for two days in a row, he found that there was no effect, and only then did he remember that their purpose of attacking and defending was not to prevent Qi Yuanbai from breaking them.
Just keep him.
Night!
Qi Yuanbai gave him a trick of divine soldiers descending from the sky, and the whole army either did not move, or if he moved, he would come out of the cage like a tiger.
can be rated as a famous general in the world, has his own skills, in the narrow terrain of Hexi, 40,000 town troops.
He can give full play to the role of all branches of the army at the same time, which means that he has a unique arrangement for each battalion, and allows them to fully implement it.
this night.
Tu Nao felt the largest and widest firepower ever, and it seemed that all sides were full of enemies.
Only then did he know Qi Yuanbai's horror.
In terms of the combat experience of the large corps, the generals of the Western Regions were as naΓ―ve as babies in front of the veterans of Yu who had experienced the battle for the founding of the country and the battle against the Northern Wilderness.
But Tu Nao was not a mediocre talent, he was blinded for a while, and immediately ordered a breakthrough to preserve his strength, and at the same time sent fast horses, called in reserves, and reorganized the defensive line.
It's just that.
He didn't dare to say how long he could last, and at the same time passed the news to Chun Yuyue, hoping that he could quickly resolve the battle in Longxi.
β¦β¦
Since then.
Li Huai's three-step plan, two of which are being strictly implemented, and good results have been achieved.
Now it's up to him to take this step.
He wanted to drag all the main forces of Chun Yuyue near Longxi City until Qi Yuanbai and Tie Mu cut off his back, and at the same time cut off his grain route.
The scales of this war will tilt a few points in his favor, and this is the only way to win!
The key lies in this battle!
The first three quarters of the sub-hour.
Li Huai ordered Yan Gaoyang to correct the angle of the artillery and ordered the logistics to speed up the delivery of ammunition and to pick it up as soon as possible.
A moment before the hour!
All combat units are in place.
Sub-hour!
Chirp! Tweeted!
Three red flares are lifted into the air.
Brush!
The ground rolled like a wave, and patches of ground were torn open, leaking black barrels and smoke billowing.
Chun Yuyue would not have expected that Li Huai had hidden all the three artillery battalions underground, not far from Longxi City.
Now Chun Yuyue's scouts have seen it, but it's too late!
Rumble! Boom!
A thousand guns in unison!
Strictly speaking, it was nearly fifteen hundred cannons, of which five hundred were Kamui cannons, and there were also a thousand new Kamui cannons.
It was the last time Yang Lingyun came to Liangzhou, Li Huai wanted to take her to see, but when she didn't see it, the new cannon on the equipment!
What's different about the new cannon?
Very simple.
Fifteen hundred cannons can fire more than 3,000 shells at the same time.
New artillery aka, multi-barreled artillery!
Just imagine, more than 3,000 iron gada flying overhead, what is it like?!
