Chapter 30: The Fierce Battle
On the official road of Beikun Mountain, north of Tingchao City, the army of Dafeng County was galloping, and the dust and mist kicked by the dragon horneed horse flew high, almost obscuring half of the sky.
One of the generals in the forward turned around and shouted loudly: "Dashuai, the front is listening to Chaocheng!"
"Okay, I hope we're not late!" a dignified-looking middle-aged man nodded in response.
......
Listening to the outer city of Chao Harbor, Li Yun and Ping Nanhou stood on the city, looking at the inner and outer directions, looking quite anxious.
"Report!" the South Vietnamese fleet is about a day's journey away!" a spy shouted in a hurry.
"Okay! Let's explore!" said Ping Nanhou loudly.
"Yes!" the spy hurried away.
Ping Nanhou looked at the various trap projects that had been gradually completed between the inner and outer cities, his mood improved slightly, and said: "Li Gongzi, even if the army can't come in time, we can stop them here and delay them for a long time. ”
"Yes, as long as we can hold on, we can have a chance to turn defeat into victory at any time. However, we may pay a heavy price. Li Yun sighed.
Ping Nanhou nodded slowly, and suddenly his ears moved, looking north, his eyes lit up!
"Childe, it looks like our chance has come!"
Li Yun looked up and saw the yellow dust mist rising in the distance, and a bright smile finally bloomed on his face.
"Report! The army of Gale County has arrived!"
"Okay, welcome right away!"
Li Yun and Pingnanhou immediately hurried to the front to meet the army.
Soon after the arrival of the army of Dafeng County, the armies of Dayu County and Dayun County also arrived one after another, which gave Li Yun's army plenty of space to arrange his troops.
......
Qin Yi and Miss Xian Xian were sitting bored, when suddenly a special guard quickly handed over a secret order: "The operation begins!"
Qin Yi's spirits perked up, and he made a gesture to the special guard, and his figure flashed, and the person was gone.
In the Colosseum, Chen Gangba was waiting with the masters of the clan, and a special guard quickly handed over a secret order, "The operation begins!"
"Haha! Catch those two animal trainers for me right away and beat them hard!"
"Yes!"
At the west gate of the inner city, Yang Weizhong was chatting with Du Qingshu, and a special guard quickly handed over a secret order, "The operation begins!"
"Do it!"
"Yes!"
After receiving the action instructions, the various forces arranged in Chao City took action one after another, cutting off the various hostile forces hidden in the city.
......
On the vast sea, clouds and mist shrouded in mist, and a large fleet of ships loomed in the sea mist, slowly approaching the Celestial Dragon Empire's Listening Tide Harbor.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there should be the Tingchao City area in front!" Ruan Dan shouted loudly.
"Haha! Okay! It's so cool!" said Prince Yingji, sipping his wine, holding a plundered beautiful girl in one hand, and laughing heartily.
"Your Royal Highness the Prince, we arrived nearly a day later than originally planned, and we didn't see the signal from the city, so it's better to wait for the last general to send someone into the city, contact the internal response, and then make a decision!" Ruan Dan said.
"No need, when it gets dark, we can just kill it directly! What kind of protection can a small city like this one have? When my army enters it, it will definitely be like a bamboo, and we will be able to capture it!" Prince Yingji laughed.
"It's... His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, war is not a child's play, and we need to be completely sure before we can go to war, otherwise, if something happens, how can we explain it to the emperor? and how can we explain it to the people?" said Ruan Dan.
"Be bold! Do you still need to teach you how to fight? This prince has read a lot more military books than you! This plan of action has been planned by this prince, and it can be described as extremely thorough and foolproof! The other side has a small city, and it is impossible for him to realize that we are attacking, and even if he knows about our actions, it is impossible to bring in a large army to fight us in a short period of time, so even if we attack it now, it is absolutely necessary. However, the prince was still cautious and commanded the battle with an attitude of being responsible to the South Vietnamese soldiers! In this way, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, recuperate their energy, and wait for darkness. When the time comes, we will cover up and kill them again, and we will kill them without leaving a single piece of armor!"
"It's... Yes!"
Seeing that persuasion was ineffective, Ruan Dan had no choice but to order the sergeants to eat and rest first.
......
When night fell, the sky was shrouded in darkness, and even the moon did not know where to hide.
Yingji and Ruan Dan stood on the big boat, looking into the distance, their faces solemn.
"Your Highness, wait a little longer, maybe there will be movement inside. ”
The atmosphere of this night was a little solemn, Yingji seemed to have drunk too much, and her mind cleared up a lot, and she nodded slowly.
Hey!
The two of them suddenly snorted at the same time.
"Your Highness, there is a fire!" Ruan Dan shouted in surprise.
I saw that in the dark night sky in the distance, a roaring fire suddenly lit up, and its signal was the same as the previously agreed siege signal.
"Yes, it seems that they have occupied the tide listening platform and released blood mosquitoes, and if you think that the city of listening to the tide at this time must be a tragic scene of plague. Prince Yingji said excitedly.
"Then we... Attack?!" Ruan Dan asked.
"Slowly, let the soldiers sprinkle the prepared powder on their bodies first to prevent blood mosquito bites. Then let the boat slowly get closer. Yingji said calmly at this time.
Ruan Dan immediately gave the order.
After about an hour, the fleet finally slowly forced into the harbor.
What caught the eyes of the two of them was a tall and long city wall, on which there seemed to be sparse figures and scattered lanterns.
"Your Highness, it seems a little too quiet!" Ruan Dan whispered.
"Don't worry, the blood mosquito is dispatched, I'm afraid that most of the Dragon Defense Army has been recruited these days, and it is normal to be quiet. Yingji analyzed.
"I'm still a little worried..."Ruan Dan said with a solemn expression.
"Well, let's try it first, let a team get off the boat, and after landing, attack the general, and see how the situation goes!" Prince Yingji ordered.
"That's right! Let a team explore the way first, so that nothing goes wrong!" Ruan Dan agreed.
Soon, a large boat at the front lowered a number of small boats, each with a small group of soldiers, and began to paddle and quietly make its way to the beach.
After the boat ran aground on the beach, the soldiers began to assemble, about a thousand, and by the darkness of the night, carrying siege tools, they marched quickly.
The soldiers climbed the ladder up to the city wall, quickly cut down the few foolish defenders who were guarding the wall, and soon took control of a tower and opened the gates.
The leading general immediately lit torches on the tower and shook it.
"Your Highness, they've got it!" Ruan Dan exclaimed excitedly.
"That's right! This prince has left no pearl behind, and now he can attack Tingchao City with confidence! Order the whole army, immediately get off the ship and board the city, use the strength of milk, and kill it fiercely!"
"Yes!"
Nguyen Dan immediately jumped onto the platform, shook the torch in his hand, and gave various signals of action, and the South Vietnamese army began a full-scale attack.
......
On a high slope not far from the outer city of Haiphong, Li Yun and Pingnanhou led a group of soldiers to lie in the shadows and observe the enemy's situation.
"Childe, they're finally all moving!" Ping Nanhou said excitedly.
"Okay! Order the ambush troops of Dafeng County and Dayu County on the peninsula to be dispatched now!" Li Yun ordered.
"Yes!" Pingnanhou immediately ordered.
"Their forward soldiers have already crossed the outer city and are about to reach the trap area, do you want to start moving?!" asked Ping Nanhou anxiously.
"Wait. Li Yun said categorically.
Ping Nanhou looked at the steady stream of South Vietnamese soldiers pouring up from the sea, his heart was a little chilling, he looked at Li Yun, and found that he was calm and composed, and his admiration rose spontaneously.
"Childe, have you ever seen this kind of war scene?"
"It's... No. ”
"Aren't you afraid at all?"
"Don't be afraid. ”
Ben Hou admired. ”
"It's over!"
"Is it time to issue an order?" Pingnanhou watched more and more soldiers pouring into the outer city and attacking the inner city, and his heart began to tense.
"Wait!"
"It's... How long will it be?!"
"See, they have sixty-five ships, of which forty are carrying soldiers, ten are logistics ships, and fifteen are plundered ships, counting 3,000 soldiers per ship, plus some soldiers of the logistics fleet participating in the battle, their strength in this attack is about 150,000. At this time, they have landed 50,000 people, and when the number of landing personnel reaches 80,000, it will be the best time for us to launch an attack!" Li Yun analyzed.
Ping Nanhou was dumbfounded when he heard this, and after a moment of silence, he asked, "Why do you say that it was the best moment?"
"Hit it, this is their most chaotic moment!"
"Good..."
Ping Nanhou suddenly calmed down completely, standing beside Li Yun, he felt very safe and stylish.
After a while, Ping Nanhou prompted: "Childe, the South Vietnamese soldiers who entered first are about to attack the inner city!"
Li Yun waved his hand and said loudly: "Okay, this is the time!
Ping Nanhou immediately appeared at his height, and the torch in his hand made a posture of swaying downwards and from side to side.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The soldiers of the inner city were instructed to immediately launch a trap, and a large area of land suddenly fell for no reason, and bows and arrows rained down on the inner city, and all kinds of rolling logs and boulders were thrown wildly.
The South Vietnamese soldiers under the inner city were caught off guard, and fell in large numbers, howling and rushing to death!
Seeing that the situation was not good, some of the soldiers behind began to retreat, but they collided directly with the soldiers who poured in behind, and the scene was suddenly chaotic!
Suddenly, a large number of warriors appeared on the city wall of the outer city of Haiphong at some point, all of them were vigorous and strong, and the arrows in their hands rained down on the South Vietnamese soldiers under the city.
The South Vietnamese soldiers who had poured in in early stage were suddenly in danger of being annihilated by the interior and the outside.
"Not good, Your Highness, there is an ambush!"
Ruan Dan saw the military situation in front of him in the back, and knew that the general situation was not good, so he immediately shouted.
"How... How could this be?" Yingji panicked.
"Your Highness, there must be something wrong with Xijon. Don't let go of the soldiers anymore, gather the troops in front and have a good fight with them!" Ruan Dan said flatly.
"Well... Just listen to you! You command!"
Yingji's heart trembled at this time, she was already the master of the six gods, so she had to grasp Ruan Dan's life-saving straw.
After all, Nguyen Dan has been on the battlefield for a long time, and at this moment of crisis, he actually did not mess up, immediately commanded the South Vietnamese army, and fought and retreated.
Retreating to the beach, he was not in a hurry to board the boat and return to the big boat, but set up a defensive formation, constantly absorbing the retreating soldiers, and the battle formation was slowly expanding and reinforced.
......
"It seems that there are high-ranking people in the South Vietnamese army!" Li Yun sighed.
"It's a pity that they have lost the opportunity, otherwise, with their military strength, they must be a hard bone. Ping Nanhou sighed.
"Not bad!"
Li Yun ordered: "Let the army of Dayun County, which is ambushed on both sides of the beach, attack!
Ping Nanhou immediately changed the posture of the torch in his hand, waving it left and right.
"Shoot!"
The marshal of the army of Dayun County saw the signal and immediately ordered.
Suddenly, the arrows rained down and shot wildly at the South Vietnamese troops assembled on the beach.
"Not good!"
Ruan Dan was stunned, and his mind raced: "I didn't expect the enemy to be so powerful, and there was an ambush even on the beach, so it can be seen that this operation has already been known to the enemy army!"
"Retreat!"
Ruan Dan decisively ordered.
