Tang Dynasty: The poisonous scholar in the Eastern Palace, please abdicate and let the wise one take

Chapter 491 Stay at Quanjing tonight!

After all, Koizumi Jichiro is a man who has seen many storms and waves. How could he sacrifice his life in vain because of a siege?

The death of his general made him very angry and furious.

Jin Wucheng's teasing also made him want to kill him here, but the premise of all this was to ensure that he himself was alive.

If his generals died, he could just spend money to recruit them from other places. If the city was broken, he could do whatever he wanted to deal with Jinwu Chengdu. But if they lost their lives, then he would really have nothing.

So, while shouting to attack the city, he quietly slowed down his pace and kept retreating.

"Your Majesty, this Koizumi Juichiro is really a devil."

After seeing Koizumi Juichiro's little trick, Yuchi Baolin couldn't help but tease him.

Although he was shouting about attacking the city, he quietly retreated, fearing that something unexpected would happen to him.

"Human nature."

Su Chen smiled and said, "If he was brave and fearless, he wouldn't have surrendered to General Liu so easily before."

"correct."

Speaking of Liu Rengui, Su Chen tilted his head and asked, "Has the message been delivered?"

"It has been sent over."

Yuchi Baolin smiled and said, "After Cheng Chumo conquered Bile, General Liu's army should be arriving soon."

Su Chen nodded.

Beilie doesn't have many soldiers now, and the eight hundred people under Cheng Chumo are enough to take him down.

However, Cheng Chumo's eight hundred men alone might not be able to withstand the humiliation.

So, Su Chen ordered someone to notify Liu Rengui.

Regardless of whether Liu Rengui arranged troops to assist Cheng Chumo in attacking the city or to assist him in defending the city, at least after Beilie succeeded, it could not be taken back by the other side.

"The other side resisted very fiercely."

Li Chongyi smacked his lips and said, "Looking at this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to successfully capture the spring tonight."

Su Chen looked over with a telescope.

The defenders on the city wall continued to defend tenaciously under the bombardment of artillery fire.

Among them, there were quite a few civilians.

Although it was a bit surprising, it was also expected.

after all.

Quanjing didn't have many soldiers and horses, so they could only rely on the power of the people in the city to strengthen the defense of the city walls.

The city gate was blown down by the bombardment.

The broken city gate gave the Japanese navy an opportunity. Those who failed to climb the ladders took advantage of the opportunity and charged directly towards the city gate.

However, the large rocks behind the city gate stopped them in their tracks.

At the same time, from time to time, long spears would pierce out from the gaps left by the large stones, killing the Japanese soldiers who rushed over.

"Order Li Jingheng to increase the efforts. We will stay at Quanjing tonight."

"Yes!"

Since Koizumi Juichiro's subordinates are useless, we can only increase the firepower.

otherwise.

It is definitely impossible to capture the well today.

Therefore, after Su Chen's order reached Li Jingheng's ears, Li Jingheng did not hesitate at all and immediately arranged more shooters to continuously bombard the city wall.

Although the city wall was very strong, it could not withstand such bombardment and cracks soon appeared.

Li Jingheng became more and more excited.

"Keep fighting!"

"Blow up the city wall for me. I want to see if they can still defend the well!"

"Yes!"

Boom boom boom!
There was a lot of artillery fire.

Not only was the entire east wall of the well covered in flames, but even the city gate was in trouble.

Some Japanese and Korean soldiers were blown to pieces on the spot by the bombardment of these bombs. Even the stones used to block the city gates were blown into powder.

The city wall was crumbling, the city gate was opened, and the Japanese soldiers, as if they saw the dawn of victory, rushed directly towards the city gate.

At this moment, Qiao Mao's soul was trembling.

Damn.

The Tang Dynasty’s firearms were too powerful.

"Hurry up, ask County Lieutenant Jin for help."

Qiao Mao roared, drew his sword and led his troops to respond.

They must not be allowed into the city.

otherwise.

They must die in the city.

"what?"

Upon learning that the city gate had been blown open and even the stones blocking the city gate had been blown away, Jin Wucheng's face changed instantly.

"Come on, come on!"

"Go ask the county magistrate to arrange for the navy to come to our aid!"

"It's bad, lieutenant. The county magistrate has escaped."

"Damn it!"

Jin Wucheng's face changed instantly.

At such a critical moment, the county magistrate actually ran away first!
"What about the hundreds of sailors?"

"They were all taken away by the county magistrate. Now there are no soldiers left in the city!"

"Bastard!"

Jin Wucheng roared angrily.

Those were the reserve troops, how dare he lead them to escape? !

I must kill him!

boom!
Another thunder exploded not far away.

The city wall beneath his feet wailed as if it could not bear it any longer.

When Jin Wucheng looked over, he saw that the city wall made of bluestone slabs had shocking cracks.

If this continues, the city wall will definitely be blown up!

"Sir, we can't hold on any longer. The city wall is about to collapse. Let's retreat!"

"withdraw?"

Jin Wucheng roared, "Where do we retreat to?"

"But my lord..."

"Sir, it's bad. County Lieutenant Qiao was killed in the explosion."

"what?"

House seemingly endless rain.

The county magistrate fled with his troops, and Qiao Mao was killed in a bomb explosion again.

Now they are the only group of people left in the entire Quanjing.

and.

Jin Wucheng looked at it and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Under the firepower coverage of the Tang Dynasty, the defenders on the city wall couldn't even raise their heads to fight!
But once the firepower of the Tang Dynasty stopped, those Japanese soldiers climbed up the ladders to the city walls like mad dogs and fought with them!
"County lieutenant, retreat!"

"County Lieutenant, we can't stop them."

"Sir, this defeat is not due to war."

Facing everyone's advice, Jin Wucheng took a deep breath and said, "Retreat, quickly evacuate the well!"

With Jin Wucheng's order, the defenders on the city wall no longer had any intention of continuing the battle.

One by one, they retreated in panic and gathered towards Jin Wucheng.

but.

Many people were killed on the spot before they could evacuate.

The total number of people gathered around Jin Wucheng was no more than three hundred.

Are these the only people left?

Jin Wucheng looked sad. They lost the battle before they even saw the main force of the Tang army.

Side by side king.

firearm!

Jin Wucheng gritted his teeth and said, "Follow me to retreat to the iron urn!" "Go!"

"Yes!"

Everyone surrounded Jin Wucheng and quickly withdrew from the battlefield.

at the same time.

Seeing that the city gate had been taken and the defenders on the city wall had been cleared out one by one, and his subordinates had gained the upper hand, Koizumi Juichiro immediately spurred his horse and rushed straight to the city gate.

"Where is Jin Wucheng?"

"General, Jin Wucheng ran away!"

"Which direction did you run in?"

"Iron urn."

"Chase, follow me and kill Jin Wucheng. Don't let the tiger go back to the mountain!"

Koizumi Jiro shouted, "Send someone to tell the prince that Quan Jing has been captured, and I will be back soon with Jin Wucheng's head!"

"Yes!"

But for a moment.

Hundreds of soldiers seized war horses and followed behind Koizumi Jiro, chasing in the direction of Jin Wucheng's escape.

Seeing Koizumi Juichiro and others rushing into the city, Su Chen smiled and put down the telescope.

"Look, isn't this what we got?"

Yuchi Baolin and the other man looked at each other in silence.

If it weren't for the heavy firepower suppression, how could Koizumi Juichiro and his men have entered Quanjing City?

However, now that the well has been taken, it is always a good thing.

"Come on, let's go into the city too."

Su Chen said with a smile, "Don't let the Japanese soldiers kill all the people in the city. That would not be beautiful."

"Your Majesty is wise."

……

"Oh no, County Lieutenant, Koizumi Juichiro and his men are catching up with us!"

"Damn it!"

Jin Wucheng's face darkened.

How could Koizumi Jichiro, this cowardly guy, actually lead his troops to chase and kill him?

"County lieutenant, I will lead the troops to stop them, you leave quickly."

"inappropriate."

Jin Wucheng shook his head. "The enemy army has entered the city. Whoever is the last one to leave will die here. Let's leave together."

"County Captain!"

"go!"

"Hahaha, Jin Wucheng, you can't go anywhere today!"

Koizumi Juichiro's crazy laughter came from behind.

Jin Wucheng and others looked over and saw Koizumi Jichiro leading hundreds of cavalrymen, rushing towards them aggressively.

"I told you I would cut you into pieces."

Koizumi Jiro laughed loudly and raised the Japanese sword in his hand, "Brothers, charge and kill them all!"

"kill!"

"war!"

There is no escape, the only option is to fight!
But infantry is ultimately inferior to cavalry, and the number of people led by Koizumi Jushiro is over a hundred.

After a round of attacks, there were less than a hundred people left by Jin Wucheng's side.

"Jin Wucheng, I will give you a chance now. Kneel on the ground and lick my toes, and I will spare your life!"

"The fox pretends to be the tiger's power!"

"If there is no Tang army, what is Koizumi Jichiro worth?!"

"Even if I, Jin Wucheng, die here today, I will never surrender to you!"

"Come and fight!"

"kill!"

The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more.

Only when your subordinates show their true colors can you settle this situation.

The two sides collided with each other, and the winner was decided in just a stick of incense.

There was an obvious knife scar on Koizumi Jushiro's body, and there were only five people left around him, sitting unsteadily on horseback. On the other hand, Jin Wucheng's body was covered in blood, and no one around him could stand up.

"This war is not a crime of war!"

Jin Wucheng roared, gritted his teeth and rushed towards Koizumi Juichiro.

dead.

I also need to find someone to take the blame for me.

"kill!"

As the fast horses passed by, Jin Wucheng felt dizzy and then he lost consciousness.

Koizumi Jiro looked down at his wound, then at Jin Wucheng whose head and body were separated, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Pick up Jin Wucheng's head and follow me to see the prince!"

Spring well.

The defenders in the city have been almost cleared out.

In addition to these defenders, the able-bodied men who assisted Jin Wucheng and others in defending the city were also hunted down by the Japanese soldiers.

If it weren't for these people, they wouldn't have suffered so many casualties.

Yes.

Even if these strong men ran back home, they still could not escape the fate of being beheaded.

There was constant wailing in Quanjing City.

Su Chen led his army into the city and went to the county government office as soon as possible.

With the escape of the county magistrate, the county government office was deserted and nothing was left.

Su Chen said slowly: "Jingheng, Chongyi, Baolin, the three of you lead the troops to the wealthy families in the city and order them to hand over their money and property, and their lives will be safe."

"Remember, bring a few more Japanese soldiers and let them do their job freely."

Li Jingheng and the other two immediately grinned, "Understood, Your Majesty."

Now that the city has been broken, the natural thing to do is to make money.

Although they were a little surprised that Su Chen proposed such a thing, they still led the troops there readily.

Sun Qiang whispered, "Your Majesty, don't we want this city anymore?"

Su Chen: "Of course I want Quanjing City, but I also want the money in the hands of those rich people."

"It's impossible that we spent so much effort to capture Quanjing City but got nothing in return, right?"

"Moreover."

"The Manufacturing Bureau also needs money, right?"

At this time.

A soldier came running over in a hurry, "Your Highness, General Koizumi wants to see you, saying that he has captured Jin Wucheng."

"Invite him in."

"I will finally meet the prince!"

Koizumi Jiro excitedly presented Jin Wucheng's head, "I have lived up to your trust, and I have successfully captured Jin Wucheng's head."

Su Chen frowned and waved his hand, "Don't bring back things like the head."

Koizumi Jushiro immediately understood and hurriedly handed the head to a soldier beside him to take away.

"You did a good job this time, but I see you are seriously injured. Go down and recuperate first. We can discuss matters after you have recovered."

"Your Majesty, the wound on my body is not a problem..."

Koizumi Juichiro had a smile on his face, but while he was talking, he couldn't help but fall back, and he glanced around quietly.

fast.

Come and hold me.

puff.

No one supported him.

Su Chen raised his eyes slightly, this is quite interesting.

"Hurry up and send General Koizumi to get treated. You must make sure General Koizumi is cured, okay?"
