Loew then said, "Marshal Boehner is right. That Emperor Ming must have scared us! I really don't believe that under the current situation, the Ming army has the ability to destroy Gude and them! Gude: They have 300,000 main troops! In addition, there are hundreds of thousands of Tianzhu servants! At present, the Ming people can attack Tianzhu is just more than 200,000 soldiers and horses under the command of Shi Liancheng, even if they add the military army in several nearby areas, they can be on a par with Marshal Gude, and it is absolutely impossible to defeat Marshal Gude! Everyone nodded in agreement.

Previously, Catherine had given an order to mobilize some of Goode's troops and horses from east to west to support the Persian region to eliminate the Ming army, but that order was canceled by Catherine herself shortly after it was issued. Because Catherine felt that with the current soldiers and horses that could deal with the Ming army in the Persian region, there was no need to mobilize Gude's soldiers and horses, and Gude's soldiers and horses needed to guard against the army in the southwest of the Ming Dynasty, so it was better not to move casually. Therefore, at present, the Gude army is still in place and has not come west.

Catherine frowned and asked, "You all think that Emperor Ming's words were deliberately to scare us?" ”

Everyone nodded.

Catherine shook her head slowly and said, "No." I don't think so. You don't know him, but I know him very well. He will never lie to me! ”

Loew said angrily: "Although Your Majesty and him are lovers, they are also enemies, why won't he tell lies to Your Majesty?" ”

Catherine said categorically: "I know who he is, and he won't lie to me!" When he saw that the people were still going to speak, he raised his right hand and said, "All right, don't discuss this matter." I think he's doing something, but given the current situation, his actions shouldn't have any effect. Any trick must be hasty with strength, and under the current situation, I really don't see what he can do! He looked at Boehner and commanded, "Bona, you immediately send a summons to Goode and convey my orders to him to be extra careful these days. Boehner agreed.

Catherine pondered for a moment, raised her head and glanced at everyone, and said, "That's all this matter for, what we have to focus on now is how to capture the fortress of Amole!" Although we have fallen for their tricks, the situation is still in our favor. The army had been resting for a few days, and it was time to attack the fortress of Amour. The generals nodded in agreement, but no one came up to ask for battle. The generals have long been scared by the Ming army, although they are not frightened, but everyone subconsciously avoids the battle with the Ming people.

Catherine was annoyed when she saw that everyone was going to be like this, but she also felt a little proud in her heart. Then he raised his voice: "The order is given, and the armies will immediately move their camps to the northern foot of the Alborz Mountains." "All the generals agreed together.

Yang Peng received a report that he climbed the south city wall accompanied by Yan Ji. Looking to the south, I saw countless Shinra soldiers crossing the Alborz Mountains in several ways and encamping at the foot of the mountain. Yang Peng immediately ordered the soldiers and horses to assemble and go out of the city to fight back.

The generals of the Shenluo side are all experienced in a hundred battles, and they have long let the Ming army go out of the city to counterattack, so when they march, the cavalry army is in front and the army is behind. Seeing that tens of thousands of horses of the Ming Dynasty were rushing towards him, he immediately attacked with cavalry. In the blink of an eye, the armies of both sides were fighting in the wilderness. I saw the cavalry vertical and horizontal, the infantry swept away, the sky was full of arrows, and the spears on the ground were like a forest! The two sides are quite difficult to distinguish between male and female!

Yang Peng saw that the enemy army was prepared and difficult to achieve the battle goal, so he decisively gave up the attack, disengaged from the enemy army, and retreated to the fortress. And the HRE side did not fall in love with the battle, and when they saw the enemy retreating, they also withdrew their troops and retreated to the formation to be on guard.

Yang Peng returned to the city wall, Yan Ji frowned and said, "I didn't expect the enemy to be on guard!" ”

Yang Peng looked at the Shenluo army that was constantly coming over, and said with a smile: "The generals of the Shenluo are not mediocre people, so it is normal to act accordingly. Yan Ji looked at her lover and said teasingly: "It should be said that the husband's lover is very resourceful!" ”

Yang Peng smiled, leaned in a little, and said in a low voice with a smile: "What a big vinegar smell!" ”

Yan Ji glanced at her lover and said proudly: "The concubine is not jealous!" The concubine is the wife of the husband and the king, not like the wild woman! It should be her jealousy of me! Yang Peng smiled.

Yan Ji frowned and said angrily: "But this woman is really hateful!" If you love your big brother, why do you have to go against your big brother? ”

Yang Peng looked into the distance and muttered, "Catherine, hehe, is different from you. She is a woman of great pride and possessiveness! This kind of woman will never share her man with others! If she can't get it, she'd rather destroy it! Yan Ji frowned and said, "This is not a good woman's style!" ”

Yang Peng sighed and said with a wry smile: "It's no wonder she!" ”

Yan Ji smiled: "Husband, what he said is right! After all, it's not all you men who are! Yang Peng smiled and touched his nose. remembered something, so he asked, "Is there any news of Yang Yanzhao?" Yan Ji frowned and shook her head, "Still not." Yang Peng couldn't help muttering: "This is really a ghost!" So many days have passed, and there is no news from Yang Yanzhao's side! They couldn't have all disappeared without a trace, did they? Yan Ji looked at Yang Peng with a confused expression and asked, "Husband, what is **?" ”

Yang Peng sneered and said with a smile: "That's what I said, but it's not interesting." When Yan Ji heard her lover say this, she stopped asking.

Yang Peng lowered his head and pondered, he was thinking about what Yang Yanzhao might encounter with them. But after turning it over and over again, I just think it's the worst and worst, and it shouldn't be completely devoid of news! What's going on here?

The HRE army led by Catherine all searched through the Alborz Mountains, and set up a joint camp along the mountains for more than 20 miles at the foot of the mountain, which was at its peak.

However, in the future, the HRE army did not attack the fortress of Amole, but trapped the fortress of Amolle with a joint camp. Catherine's purpose in doing this was very clear, that is, to continue the previous tactics of besieging the Ming army, intending to trap the Ming army. Catherine knew the situation in the fortress of Amole, knew that there was not much food in the fortress, and although the Ming army occupied the fortress of Amolle, the basic situation of the lack of grain and grass did not change. Catherine estimated that Yang Peng and the others would be able to hold out for five or six days at most. Catherine's plan was to wait for the Ming army in the castle to be almost starved, and then attack with all his strength, so that she could destroy the Ming army and occupy the fortress without much effort. Of course, she also has a very important purpose, that is, to capture Yang Peng and let him be her queen.

However, Catherine's wishful thinking soon came to naught. Why? Because Yang Peng got a lot of grain and grass. Friends who have read the above should know that after the Ming army occupied the north shore of the east coast, it collected almost all the ships around the Caspian Sea as a means of transportation for transporting grain and grass. Yelu Hanyu collected a large amount of grain and grass around the Caspian Sea and the Khorezm Sea, and only a small part of it was transported to Yang Peng's army before, and most of the grain and grass had not yet arrived. Soon after, the fortress of Amol fell, and the Byzantine Empire and Karn's HRE army marched eastward, so Yelu Hanyu transported all the grain and grass that could not be transported to Chechnya, the largest island in the Caspian Sea, and sent 3,000 soldiers and horses to guard it, and then retreated.

The Byzantine Empire and Karn did not know about this, and their energy was mainly on the side of Jerod's cold rain, so they marched east to attack Montenegro, but did not pay attention to the powerful islands. On the other hand, although Catherine captured the Amol fortress by surprise attack, she did not know about the storage of grain on Chechen Island, and secondly, there was no raft to cross the sea for a while, so she did not attack Chechen Island during the occupation of the Amol fortress. In this way, the grain and grass of Chechnya were preserved. Until the Ming army recaptured the fortress of Amole, the grain and grass on the island of Chechnya were continuously transported by land and water.

Catherine was annoyed when she saw that her plan had failed, and immediately attacked the fortress of Amor. I saw hundreds of thousands of people surrounded the fortress of Amole on three sides, and hundreds of cannons continuously bombarded the fortress! The sound of artillery is earth-shattering, stones and bricks are flying all over the sky, and the fortress of Amole is in danger!

After two days of heavy shelling, the fortress of Amol was in shambles! Then the shelling stopped, and the HRE army poured into the city like a tidal wave, pouring into the city from every gap! At this time, the Ming army jumped out of the concealment, the dragon leaped and the tiger leaped, the leopard rushed to the wolf, and rushed towards the enemy fiercely! The two sides scuffled, only to see the shadow of swords and swords, flesh and blood flying, and a terrible scream in the roar like a tide!

……

A fierce battle lasted until the evening, and the gap was already full of corpses and blood! The soldiers on both sides suffered heavy casualties! However, after this day's fierce battle, the HRE side did not make any decent progress.

Under the setting sun, the land was bloody. Catherine frowned and looked at the fierce battlefield ahead. At this time, the fierce battle continued, but it felt much weaker than before. Catherine knew that her soldiers were very tired, and she was afraid that it would be difficult to make any progress if she continued to fight, so she ordered her troops to be withdrawn for the time being. A short trumpet sounded, and the various attacking forces of the Shinra receded like a tidal tide at low tide. The originally noisy and tragic battlefield fell silent in an instant. As the sun sets, the ancient city is surrounded by the sea, and the scenery is picturesque. If it weren't for the mountains of corpses and the strong smell of blood, this place would be a paradise.

Catherine and her generals entered the tent. Catherine walked straight up and down. Loew said in a deep voice: "If we continue to fight like this, we really don't know how many people will have to die to take the fortress!" ”

Bohner frowned and said, "When the battle comes to this, we have no reason to retreat." No matter how many people are sacrificed, the fortress of Amole must be taken! ”

Loew said angrily: "I didn't say I wouldn't fight again!" ”

Marcel said to Catherine, who frowned slightly: "Your Majesty, if you continue to fight like this, the losses of our warriors of the HRE will be too great!" From tomorrow onwards, why don't you let the servant army attack! "This Marcel's appearance is completely different from before, the original golden beard is completely gone, and the face that was originally quite handsome is now hideous and terrifying. It turned out that although Marcel escaped the fire that day, his face was ruined by the heat. In fact, it was a miracle that he was able to pick up that name.

Loew listened to Marcel's words and immediately exclaimed, "How can that be done!" Our main forces can't take down the fortress, what's the use of those servant troops going up? ”

Marcel said: "Although it is impossible for the servant army to defeat the Ming army, it can greatly consume the Ming army!" Drain their forces and wear them out! When the consumption is almost exhausted, our main army will go up again, and then we will be able to destroy the Ming army in one go and recapture the fortress of Amole! ”

Loew shook his head again and said, "No, no, no!" It's a coward's act to do so! ”

"It's not cowardice, it's just a tactic," Marcel said. And as imperial generals, everything should be in the interests of the empire, as for our own reputation, why should we care so much. ”

Catherine said, "There's nothing wrong with that. From tomorrow onwards, the city will be besieged with servant troops. Although Loew was reluctant to do so, since Her Majesty the Empress had approved it, it was not easy for him to object any more.

Early the next morning, the HRE army continued to attack the city, and unlike the previous two days, this time the main forces of the HRE were lined up behind, while the main attacking forces were replaced by the servant armies that were previously placed behind. Seeing the servant army rushing towards the castle like a wave, the momentum was even more noisy and magnificent than the attack of the regular army of Shinra two days before!

Immediately, a bloody battle broke out, and the servant army poured into the city from the gap in the cannon and fought with the Ming army. But after only a moment, the servant army was pushed back by the Ming army, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, rolling to the ground one after another, and in the blink of an eye, the servant army retreated from all the gaps. The fleeing servant army crashed into the servant army behind, and the servant army behind also became in chaos, and everyone turned around and began to run backwards. The hundreds of thousands of servant troops rolled back like a flood of low tide in an instant, and the scene was still as magnificent as before.

Seeing this, Loew angrily yelled: "Rubbish! What a rubbish! Catherine hurriedly ordered: "Löw, lead the cavalry to stop them and let them continue the siege!" Anyone who escapes again will be put to death. Loew answered, ran down, and then led tens of thousands of war horsemen to intercept the fleeing servant army, killing more than 100 panicked generals and soldiers on the spot, forcing them to continue the attack.

When the servants saw Loew's glittering knives and murderous banners, they were terrified and had no choice but to turn around and attack the city. It didn't take long for them to flee again, but they were intercepted and slashed by Loew, and then hurriedly turned around and attacked the city. In this way, hundreds of thousands of servant troops continued to storm the castle under the persecution of the HRE army. These servant armies have limited combat power, and there is no way to compare with the Ming army in terms of equipment, fighting spirit, and combat skills, but they are better than the number of people, wave after wave, wave after wave, and the servants continue to pounce! Although the servant army suffered heavy casualties, the Ming soldiers were also constantly consumed!

The battle continued day after day, and every day the servant army came to attack under the drive of the Shinrakes. In order to maintain the morale of the servants, Catherine not only ordered her men to drive them away, but also rewarded the servants for their good performance every day after the battle. Therefore, although the servant army suffered heavy casualties in the fierce battles every day, they did not have the slightest complaint against Catherine and Shinra. It's just that the number of people around them is rapidly decreasing every day.

This kind of attrition lasted for seven days, and the corpses outside the fortress were piled up like mountains, and ditches were built, and the highest pile of corpses was more than half the height of the city wall. The fire that burned the corpses was never extinguished for a moment, and the Ming soldiers in the castle were exhausted.

On this morning, the HRE side poured out as usual, approaching the castle and lining up for battle.

Yan Ji looked at the battle formation of the enemy army and said to Yang Peng: "Husband, they have lined up the main force in front, it seems that they are going to attack the city with the main force!" Then he said angrily: "That Catherine is so cunning! First consumed us for so many days with the servant army, knowing that our army was exhausted, he was ready to attack the city with the main force! Yang Peng smiled, and then ordered the armies to prepare for battle.

At this moment, the drum horn outside the city was made, and then the cannon rumbled, and in an instant, I saw countless cannonballs flying all over the sky! In a blink of an eye, the inner wall of the castle collapsed, the stones flew wildly, and the gap blocked by the Ming army overnight collapsed in an instant! At this time, almost all the Ming soldiers hid in places in the city where they could hide from the cannonballs, so although the fierce and abnormal scene of the Shinra artillery fire was extremely shocking, it did not cause much damage to the Ming army except for destroying the city walls and destroying the houses. Of course, for the HRE side, there is no hope that the artillery can defeat the Ming army.

After several rounds of heavy bombardment, the earth-shattering shelling came to an abrupt halt.

Yan Ji immediately said: "The enemy is coming!" ”

Yang Peng said with a smile; "Not necessarily. Our sentries haven't signaled yet, so this may be a trick on the part of the enemy. This is Huyan Chijin coming over and asking: "Your Majesty, enter the battle position." Yang Peng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, wait for the signal from the sentry." Huyan Chijin answered.

There was silence between heaven and earth for a moment, and then the earth-shattering cannon suddenly rang out again, and the whistling cannonballs flew all over the sky and raged over everyone's heads. Yan Ji covered her ears and said loudly to Yang Peng: "Husband, you are so powerful, you actually guessed the enemy's tricks!" Yang Peng smiled, but then frowned slightly. Yang Peng thought of the current situation, the current situation can be said to be very dangerous, the battle has reached this point, I am afraid it will be difficult for his side to hold on for a long time. Immediately, Yang Peng couldn't help but think of Yang Yanzhao, and couldn't help but get angry: What is going on with Yang Yanzhao? Why hasn't there been any news for so long?

While he was thinking about it, the shelling of the HRE stopped again! At this time, a red flag was raised high in the middle of the city! Seeing this, Yang Peng immediately ordered all armies to enter their positions and prepare for battle. The armies immediately rushed to the gaps, and the soldiers armed with bows and crossbows quickly climbed to the heights. The officers and men of the various armies waited for a while, and after a while, only a loud rumbling sound was heard, from far to near, louder and louder. In an instant, I saw the wolf-like officers and soldiers of the Shinra rushing in.

The soldiers holding bows and crossbows in the high place immediately released their arrows, and Li Xu shot down three enemy generals with one arrow. The officers and soldiers of the Shinra rushed straight up with a dense number of arrows, all of them like dragons and tigers! The teams of the Ming army guarding the gap immediately faced the battle, and the two sides launched a fierce battle! Seeing the swords, swords, and shadows flying flesh and blood, the soldiers on both sides kept falling in pools of blood!

The bloody battle only lasted for a moment, and the Ming army in all the gaps showed the appearance of being overwhelmed! The Ming army fought with the servant army for seven days, and although they killed countless servant troops, they were also exhausted! At this moment, in the face of the main force of the Shinra that is recuperating and has strong combat power, it seems that it is a little unbearable!

Yan Ji couldn't help but get nervous when she saw this scene. As soon as Yang Peng grasped Yan Ji's slender hand, Yang Peng's palm seemed to have magical power, and as soon as Yan Ji's palm was held by Yang Peng, he immediately calmed down, only feeling as if he didn't have to be afraid of anything. Turning his head to look at his lover, he saw that his lover's side face was as hard as a rock, and his heart couldn't help but feel tender like water.

Yang Peng said to Li Lang: "Pass the order and send all the reserves to me!" Li Lang let out a loud voice and ran down.

Seeing that the Ming army was gradually unable to support it, the officers and soldiers of the Shenluo were all demoralized like rainbows and roared like thunder, wielding swords and guns and moving forward bravely. The Ming soldiers resisted desperately, and died in bloody battles one by one, but they were gradually overwhelmed by the enemy. Seeing that the gaps everywhere are precarious, the situation is already at a critical point.

At this moment, the more than 10,000 reserves specially saved by Yang Peng rushed into the battlefield and fought back desperately, and for a while, it was like a tiger entering a flock, and the minions flew to the flesh and blood. The officers and soldiers of the HRE did not expect that the opponent still retained such a fresh force, and they were caught off guard when they landed, and the corpses flew with blood, and they couldn't help but retreat backwards. At this time, other Ming soldiers also desperately moved forward and cooperated with the support troops to sacrifice their lives to fight back! I saw the blood-stained officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty roaring wildly, stepping on the layers of corpses and sacrificing their lives! The HRE army couldn't hold on and withdrew from the gap one after another!

Catherine and the others could not help but be greatly annoyed when they saw this scene, and immediately ordered all the armies to reorganize and prepare to attack again.

The Ming army hurriedly used stones, wood, and all materials that could be used were used to fill the gaps.

Yang Peng and the others climbed to the top of the city and looked out of the city. Yan Ji pointed to the outside of the city and said, "Husband, the enemy is regrouping and has replaced with new troops!" Soon there will be another attack! ”

Yang Peng looked inside the city wall and saw that his soldiers and even the reserves were already suffering heavy casualties and were very tired. If the enemy comes back to attack, I really don't know if I can resist it. Yang Peng thought for a moment, turned his head to Shi Ping and Huyan Chijin and said, "Gather all the cavalry for me!" The eyes of the two lit up, and the loud voice fell, and then they ran down. Yan Ji hurriedly said: "I'm with my husband!" Yang Peng smiled slightly, hugged Yan Ji gently, and said softly: "Don't worry, I'll come when I go!" Then he turned and ran down the wall.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
