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

Chapter 567 The entire army is dispatched to attack and Fengshan City must be captured!

The camp built by Li Jingheng and others naturally could not meet the accommodation needs of 20,000 soldiers.

Under Hukov's arrangement, the camp began to expand.

Simultaneously.

Kodo led his troops forward.

"See you, Your Majesty."

"No gift."

Su Chen waved his hand and pointed to a chair beside him, "Sit down and talk."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Kodo thanked him and took a seat.

Su Chen pointed at Hu Kefu standing beside him and introduced him, "This is General Hu Kefu of Silla. We will be colleagues from now on. You two should get to know each other."

Hukov stood up with a smile and greeted Kodo and others one after another.

After introducing each other, everyone sat down and Su Chen put down the teacup in his hand.

"Everyone, Fengshan City is now right in front of us."

Su Chen said with a smile, "But Baekje King Buyeo Zhang is determined to be an enemy of our Tang Dynasty. For this reason, he did not hesitate to transfer all the troops from all over the country to Fengshan City, and even recruited many brave men, intending to fight us to the death."

"Kodo, you know the situation in Fengshan City best, please tell us about it."

Kodo nodded, "Okay, then I will briefly talk about the situation in Fengshan City."

"According to the information we have received, the number of defenders in Fengshan City is nearly 100,000. Of course, among these 100,000 troops, the number of elite soldiers who are truly capable of fighting is no more than 50,000 at most."

"Besides, because of Fuyu Zhang's stubborn resistance, the people of Fengshan City were united. They not only recruited many brave men, but also a large number of craftsmen."

"Thanks to the work of these craftsmen, the city's defenders have more defensive equipment than we imagined!"

"Besides that, the defenders have a strong will to defend."

"We have attempted to attack Fengshan City before, but were forced to retreat several times."

"So, in my opinion, there are only two ways to successfully capture Fengshan City."

As soon as Kodo finished speaking, everyone was immediately curious, "What are those two roads?"

Kodo: "On the one hand, we will attack the city by force, regardless of the cost. We will definitely be able to capture Fengshan City in one fell swoop, but if we do this, we will suffer a lot of casualties!"

"The two are relatively neutral. They use extremely powerful firearms to suppress the defenders on the city wall and blow up Fengshan City!"

"If we just do this, we will need a lot of bombs."

After Kodo finished speaking, he looked at Su Chen.

He can make suggestions, but the person who makes the final decision will naturally be Su Chen.

Su Chen pondered and looked at Li Jingheng and the others, "What do you think?"

Li Jingheng: "I think it would be safest to blow up Fengshan City!"

Li Chongyi: “Second.”

Hu Kefu: "I will obey your Majesty."

Su Chen smiled and said after a moment's hesitation: "Since the people in Fengshan City and Fu Yuzhang are of one mind, there is no need to show mercy."

"Kodo."

"The end will be here."

"Li Jingheng and his team will distribute the bombs to you later and teach you how to use them."

"Yes!"

Kodo looked delighted.

With the help of bombs, opening Fengshan City would be a piece of cake.

"Khukov."

"The end will be here."

"Most of your subordinates are infantrymen, good at attack and defense. You will be the main attacker this time, and Li Jingheng and the other two will assist you."

"what?"

Hukov was stunned.

He never thought that Su Chen would give this task to him.

after all.

Just a second ago, Su Chen assigned bombs and other firearms to Kodo and others.

"What does the prince mean?"

Kodo hesitated and said, "Let's make a feint attack to attract the attention of the defenders in the city, and use General Hu's army as the main attacker to capture Fengshan City?"

"Not bad!"

Su Chen smiled and nodded, "We have wasted enough time in Baekje. It's time to take it down."

"Three days later."

"Attack from both sides and conquer Fengshan City in one day!"

"Yes!"

……

Naturally, the Tang army's movements outside the city could not be hidden from the people inside the city.

As they watched the Tang army build a camp outside the city and mobilize troops, the defenders in the city became increasingly silent.

If things continue to develop in this way, the Tang army will soon build a camp and launch an attack on them!

The King of Baekje, who also received the news, immediately summoned Heichi Changyu to the palace.

When Heichi Changyu saw the King of Baekje again, he couldn't help but show a look of horror.

Compared to before, the current King of Baekje is full of decadence and melancholy.

His hair was disheveled behind him, he was holding a wine jug in his hand, and he looked drunk.

"I will pay my respects to the king."

"Get up."

The Baekje king waved his hand weakly, pointed to a chair beside him and said, "Sit down."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Heichi often sits down with people to express their gratitude.

Then a palace maid brought him wine, but Heichi Changyu refused it.

"Your Majesty, the Tang army outside the city is coming aggressively, I dare not drink."

"Ah……"

The King of Baekje smiled and said to himself, "King Su Chen has brought 20,000 Silla soldiers with him. Now the Tang army outside the city has reached 70,000 soldiers..."

"Although I still have 100,000 troops in Fengshan City, can I really resist the attack of the Tang army?"

Black teeth are often associated with silence.

He began to understand why the King of Baekje had become like this.

Because the King of Baekje was unsure.

Even if they emptied Baekje's wealth and prepared for a fierce battle with the Tang army, the strength of the Tang army was still superior to theirs.

The most important thing is that this is not the full strength of the Tang army.

There is still a large army led by Zhishili in Goryeo, and it has not been mobilized yet!

"It all depends on man!"

Heichi Changyu spoke slowly: "Your Majesty, although the Tang army has 70,000 soldiers, we also have 100,000 elite soldiers in Fengshan City."

"As the saying goes, if you double it, divide it; if you ten it, surround it."

"The Tang army does not have an advantage in numbers. The only advantage is the Tang army's firearms!"

"However, the craftsmen we recruited from various places have already built a lot of defensive equipment. Even if they cannot restrain the advantages of the Tang army's firearms, they can greatly reduce the power of their firearms."

"Secondly!"

"The Tang army has come from afar. If they don't have enough supplies, they will be forced to retreat in no time."

"As long as we defend Fengshan City, they will definitely be defeated!"

Faced with Heichi Changyu's encouragement, the King of Baekje finally regained some energy and spirit.

The King of Baekje looked up and said in a deep voice, "Are you sure you can defeat Su Chen's 70,000 troops?"

This……

Faced with the King of Baekje's question, Heichi Changyu felt a little embarrassed.

Even if they had a way to restrain the Tang army's firearms and greatly reduce their power, it would not be an easy task to repel Su Chen's 70,000 troops.

Because Su Chen still has 20,000 Mohe cavalry under his command!
These 20,000 cavalrymen outside Fengshan City were like an insurmountable mountain, making it difficult for them to cross even a single step!
"I'm not completely sure."

Heichi Chang was silent for a moment, but chose to speak frankly, "Although I am not completely sure that I can repel Su Chen's 100,000-strong army, I am certain that I can defend Fengshan City!"

"Defend Fengshan City?" The Baekje king murmured and nodded, "It's not easy to defend Fengshan City."

"General Black Tooth, go ahead and do it. I will always be your strongest backer. Even if you want to go out of the city to fight the Tang army, I will fully support you!"

"I have only one request, and that is to defend Fengshan City and repel the Tang army!"

"Yes!"

Black teeth often nod heavily.

……

Three days flew by.

Although the Tang army had not made any moves during these three days, everyone in the city knew that this was just the calm before the storm.

When the Tang army is ready, they will certainly launch the most fierce attack on Fengshan City!

Black teeth are often very clear.

Do it all at once, second time tired, third time exhausted!

The Tang army will either not move or make a stunning move. They will certainly use all their strength and means to capture Fengshan City in the shortest time possible.

Otherwise, they will be defeated!
This morning.

Outside the north gate of the city, bursts of drum beats resounded through the sky.

Kodo donned his armor and led his entire army to attack.

In front of the formation, there were a variety of siege equipment.

In addition to these well-made siege weapons, there are also bombs that Su Chen distributed to them!

As all the troops of the Kodo tribe were dispatched, Heichi Changyu knew that the Tang army was about to begin attacking the city!

Heichi Changyu immediately gave orders to prepare for defense.

outside the city.

The first to advance were not the catapults, but the bomb shooters!
These people carried launchers and bombs and came to a safe area two hundred steps away from the city wall.

Here, they can easily drop bombs on the city walls, but the archers on the walls cannot harm their lives!

"put!"

Give an order.

Bombs flew into the air one after another.

At first glance, the dense bombs looked like countless firecrackers emitting fireworks.

"Dodge!"

On the city wall, orders to take cover were given.

One after another heavy shields were lifted up by the defenders and placed in front of them.

The power of Tang army's bombs is well known.

Especially after witnessing the power of these bombs with his own eyes, Heichi Changyu also put forward some targeted requirements for the creation of defensive equipment.

Thick and with amazing defense.

Only in this way can we better resist the falling bombs!
dong dong dong.

The bombs fell accurately on the city wall and on the shields held up by the defenders, making dull sounds.

These continuous sounds were like death warrants, causing many defenders to tremble with fear.

boom!
suddenly.

A bomb exploded first.

The explosion of this bomb was like opening the devil's door and releasing countless demons.

The roaring sound roared on the city wall.

Dust, smoke, and shrapnel continued to fly everywhere.

Even the heavy shields held by the defenders were unable to successfully withstand the destructive power of the bomb.

Just for a moment.

Shields shattered under the impact of the bombs, turning into deadly flying butterflies that pierced the bodies of the defenders.

Even if some defenders were lucky enough to block the bombs with their shields, the impact of the bomb explosion would directly break their arms...

A round of explosions had just ended, and bombs appeared in the sky one after another.

This time.

No one is immune.

In just a short period of time, thousands of defenders on the city wall were almost wiped out by the impact of these bombs.

however.

This did not scare Heichi Changyu. Instead, with bloodshot eyes, he yelled to the reserve team below, "Save people, change defense!"

"Catapult!"

"Aim at those people throwing bombs and smash them to death!"

Heichi Changyu's reaction couldn't be said to be very fast, but it was definitely not slow either.

However, the bomb shooters outside the city were faster than him. After firing three bombs in succession, they retreated quickly, leaving space for the catapults behind to launch new bombs.

The city walls, which had already suffered some damage from bombing, were then hit by huge stones.

A large number of gaps soon appeared on the city wall.

But compared with the previous bomb bombings, it is much better. At least not too many soldiers will be killed directly.

The catapults of both sides flew back and forth, continuously attacking each other's positions.

Kodo waved his hand and a vanguard of 3,000 men rushed out of the formation.

These people held ladders in their hands and rushed towards the north gate at a very fast speed. Behind them was a group of Tang soldiers pushing the siege ladders.

"Archers prepare!"

"Fire arrows!"

"Don't let the Tang army enter the city!"

"Roll the logs, pile the stones, and get ready!"

"put!"

"Fire oil!"

"Kerosene..."

In just a stick of incense's time, the area above and below the North Gate City turned into a meat grinder battlefield.

A large number of Tang troops rushed forward regardless of their lives. The catapults in the rear kept bombarding the city walls. Some Tang troops who pushed the ramparts also began to suppress the archers on the city walls by relying on the height advantage of the ramparts.

Hei Chi Chang watched the scenes in front of him with an expressionless face, and from time to time his eyes looked towards the Kodo flag in the distance.

This is just the beginning, and they are fighting so frantically. Are they going to take Fengshan City today?

but.

Why is there no movement from Su Chen?
Just when Heichi Changyu was feeling suspicious, bursts of roars suddenly came from the east city gate.

Su Chen finally took action? !

A messenger ran quickly to Heichi Changyu and said, "General, outside the East City Gate, 20,000 Silla soldiers have launched an attack on us!"

really!

Black teeth often with a deep breath.

Su Chen also took action, and he also had a bomb.

but.

The only thing worth noting is that there are more Kodo troops outside the north gate, and from the moment they started their attack, they showed a strong momentum.

So, is Su Chen's movement intended to attract firepower for them?

Or is it……

Black Tooth often stared at Kodo's flag.

When attacked from both sides, one side is always feinting.

Is it Kodo or Su Chen?

"Report!"

"General, the attack of the Silla soldiers outside the East City Gate was too fierce, and the gate has been blown open!"

Black teeth often have a cold look in their eyes.

What a great speed!

Although there was a small gap in the East City Gate, Heichi Changyu did not take it to heart.

Because he had already given the order to block the East Gate!
If the Tang army wants to enter Fengshan City through the city gate, they have to blow up the entire gate passage of dozens of meters!
