Zhenguan Chang'an Xiaofangzheng

Chapter 353
As soon as Silla changed its defensive position, Jin Yuxin led an army of [-] troops and captured Shuikou of Goguryeo.

Kim Yu-shin also left a strong mark in Silla. He and Yi Chi-chan Jin Chunqiu are unswerving allies. I call you brother-in-law and you call me son-in-law.

The important thing is that they are all real bones in the second-tier bone system.

The royal family and the quasi-royal family are called holy bones, and they were originally from the three families of Pu, Xi and Jin.

Because of the strange system of "no intermarriage of bones", there are fewer and fewer sacred bones, the Pu and Xi families are wiped out, and there are only two women left in the Jin family, and it is not far from the real bones coming to power.

Sooner or later, the meat in the mouth should be as elegant as possible, and there is no need to be vicious.

Silla has long been familiar with taking advantage of people's dangers. They have always been grateful to Emperor Sui Yang. If he hadn't held back most of Goguryeo's troops, Silla would have had no chance to grow.

That one mouthful can eat five hundred miles!

Silla burned incense and prayed day and night, begging for another Yang Guang from the Central Plains, but a prodigal like Yang Guang is rare in a thousand years.

It's really once in a thousand years, not the kind of "once in a hundred years" every day.

However, when Silla seized the gap in Goguryeo, why didn't it hold its own vitals for Baekje?

The king of the Tang Dynasty led Fang County and the king of Baekje Yici, Fuyu Yici, took the opportunity to borrow troops from the Japanese kingdom, and divided up with the general Jiebo to attack Silla vigorously.

Fuyu Yici's ability is still quite good, and the relationship between Baekje and Wa has always been close. Among other things, after sending the fleet of Tang envoys to Tsushima Island, they went to Denglai along the inland sea of ​​Baekje.

On the other hand, Silla had a bad relationship with the Japanese kingdom, so after Baekje was destroyed, the sailing route of the Wa country's envoys to Tang could only be changed to the open sea, which added a lot of risks.
-
In March, Li Shiji, the general manager of the Liaodong Road, crossed the Liaoshui River from Tongding, and Li Daozong, the deputy director, divided thousands of troops and suppressed Xincheng.

Cao Sanliang, the captain of Zhechong, led a group of horses and horses outside the new city, waving paint guns to show off their might: "Koguryeo boy, how dare you fight Yeye!"

I really dare not, don't look at Goguryeo's equipment is almost the same as that of Datang, but the combat power is too different.

A few years ago, taking advantage of the insufficient strength of the Yingzhou Army, they went to the territory of Ruluo Shouzhuo to provoke a fight, but they really fought, and they were not opponents!
The Goguryeo people are tough, but they can't match Ruluo Shouzhuo's versatile fighting style. Even if they borrow more fierce Mohe people, they can't exchange one for one.

The fighting style of the Tang Dynasty, relying on the Sui Dynasty, and after Li Jing improved it, the combat effectiveness rose in a straight line. It is not a legend that the Han Dynasty fought against the Five Hus.

Even though Li Daozong only had a few thousand people, Xincheng, which could win [-] soldiers, dared not leave the city to fight with them, and they could only turn a blind eye to Cao Sanliang's domineering.

As long as you close your eyes and cover your ears, there will be no enemies on the opposite side.

Relying on the mountains in the southwest and sticking to the new city, if Datang really wants to fight, he still has to pay a price.

The skill of defending the city in the Tang Dynasty is also available in Goguryeo, but the effect is not so good at most.

In Zengcheng, building oars (a high platform without a roof for observation);

Hanging door, the hanging wooden board is a heavy door (gate);
A secret door, a hole five or six inches deep is cut from somewhere inside the city gate. At night or when the enemy's foothold is not stable, they break through the secret door and come out, killing him by surprise;

Paint the door, use mud to paint the five inches behind the door, to prevent the enemy from burning the city gate;
Zhuanguan Bridge, because of the topography of the city, there is no one in Xincheng;
Digging holes in the door, taking advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness, attacking with crossbows and spears;
Ashes and chaff, throwing out the eyes of the enemy who is besieging the city.

The defenders of the city also listened, mainly to listen to the enemy digging tunnels, but given the mountainous situation of Xincheng, it might be avoided.

Li Daozong waved his hand.

Raise the wooden house to observe the enemy's situation;
There are three cannon (throwing) carts, all of which are driven by four wheels. The bed is made of big wood, and there are two arms on it. , people hold it and throw it, and it can throw three hundred catties of stones at a time from one mile away. In this era, it can be called a heavy weapon.

A round of throwing together made the Goguryeo soldiers at the top of the city cry and howl, how many people were smashed into meat, and what was even worse were those who were injured and survived.

The experienced veterans rolled under the parapet for refuge.

It's not 100% safe, but it's better than nothing.

Dozens of Goguryeo soldiers were killed or injured on the horse face and on the horse road.

On the battlefield, "life is better than death" is really not an adjective.

The only regret is that it took too long to prepare the cannon carriage.

Although the cannon carts are powerful, the number of cannon stones is too small after all. It can be deterrent, but it is not enough to attack the city.

In fact, Li Daozong's task is to contain the enemies of the new city, and the siege of the city is not in the plan. Just look at the number of people, and you will know if there are any equipment such as flying ladders, carts, and pointed wheels. There is no plan to climb the top of the city. .

"Fight back! Cannon stones fight back!"

Chulu Jinzhi (also called Daoist) Sun Ben roared.

In a round of cannon stone attack, the number of dead did not exceed Sun Ben's expectation, but the morale was obviously low!

On the top of the city, there is still a cannon carriage with a fixed base. The sergeants shouted chant, pulled down the pole, filled the nest with cannon stones, and fought back!

The embarrassing thing is that Tang Jun's artillery vehicles and troops are one mile away, and the artillery vehicles at the top of the city have a maximum range of 270 steps, which is out of reach!

One mile is about three hundred steps!

The cannon stone fell to the ground, tumbling and rolling, just at the foot of the Tang army's cannon car.

Sun Ben was furious, wasn't he rushing to send cannon stones to the enemy!

Cao Sanliang rode back and shouted: "The chariot crossbow is fired!"

Five chariot crossbows are located behind the cannon chariot and can be rotated on the axis. Twelve stone crossbows are fixed on the chariot, and iron hooks are connected to the axle. The crossbow is divided into seven groups, the large crossbow in the middle, and the arrows in the three groups on the left and right become smaller in turn, loosen the teeth, seven arrows come out of the crossbow, with a range of [-] steps!
Thirty-five crossbow arrows whizzed through the air, and Sun Ben, who was roaring on the horse's face, suddenly felt cold and turned his face hastily. Come on, the tail feathers keep trembling!

Everyone knows that the archer's bow and arrow are accurate, but Sun Ben doesn't know, when did the crossbow shoot so accurately?

Whenever he reacts a little slower, the crossbow arrow will hit the bridge of his nose and pass through his brain!
Back off, get out of the horse face, at least the horse road can have a little more hope of survival.

Next to the crossbow, Cao Sanliang scolded: "Can't you be more accurate? Shoot the enemy general to death, and we will make a great contribution! You son of a bitch!"

The crossbowman sighed: "Guapi's head shrinks too fast, it should be the reincarnation of the turtle spirit. Captain, do you want to shoot the rocket?"

The rocket is to be released.

Arrows ignited with dysprosium, roared out, and the city tower was the first to suffer. Although the burning of the stone fat water was not as violent as that refined by later generations, it has been burned!
The wooden structure of the city tower is not resistant to fire, and this is not the main reason.

The main reason is that stone resin water was also stored in the city tower, and the swallowtail torches used to burn enemy chariots and pointed torches were fired with reeds tied like swallows and poured with stone resin water.

Wouldn't it be bad if the stored stone water met the rocket?
The fire was soaring into the sky, thick smoke was billowing, and ashes were flying. Sun Ben exited the horseway cursing.
