Chapter 1216 Pinlu 6

The four fields are full of solemn and scattered. After being burned by fire, the colorful and ugly earth seemed to be silently facing the sky.

Amid the endless drumbeats, the lead-gray torrents singing in unison, accompanied by shimmering swords, guns and helmets reflecting, like fish swimming in the surging tide, slowly rushing forward, drowning through the blue-brown field without any panic, and the earth seen in the vision seemed to have completely changed its color.

For a moment, there was no other extra noise or noise besides the majestic songs and footsteps. This was a scene that made people feel suffocating and dared not breathe loudly.

It was not until the rumbling horse hooves and trembling sounds of horses running around the mountains and fields, and the dull rolling sounds of heavy horse-drawn cannon trucks rolled over the ground, like a boiling ocean, that they could break the neat resonance that enveloped the battlefield and the hearts of the people, and temporarily dominated everything.

The originally tall, strong and reassuring city block seemed to have become an out of reach in front of them, like an isolated island and a Jedi, which was frustrating and disappointing.

Then, before they could breathe well, the army, which had changed into formations as the drums and trumpets were born, began to turn into ready-made camps on the spot with the large chariots connected together.

"Checheng", a name that has almost disappeared from historical books after many years, has appeared again in the hearts of all the onlookers and witnesses on the city.

Then, like a cold and deep military formation in the sea, it instantly turned into a volcano that had rolled lava, erupting with sounds that shook the sky and the earth and resounded through the sky.

"Wansheng..."

"Wansheng..."

"Wansheng..."

"Wansheng..."

Amid the sound of mountains and thunder, I rode a new mount named "Pipixia" and arrived at the front of the battlefield under the clusters of armored soldiers. Looking at the seemingly majestic military city in front of me was also the last obstacle before attacking Youzhou City.

After breaking through the Sanggan River, which is not deep or very wide, the same flat boundary of Youzhou was like a mature and beautiful woman who was reluctant to be pushed down, completely letting her mind and legs bend to my army.

The five county seats including Guangyang City, Huicheng, Longshan City, Changdao City, Junxingzhai, Nongkou Town, and other peripheral military cities and strongholds, as well as Yongnu, Huichang, Anci, Luping, and Wo County, were also protected by multiple attacks within two days.

It was not until another place not far from Youzhou Jicheng, the military subway, which was about to attack Longhuocheng (now Dabaotai, Fengtai District, Beijing), that he encountered quite resolute resistance and stopped for the time being.

From then on, within the two water basins of Sanggan River to Gangliang River, from the southeast of Youzhou, to the Putian Castle in the west of Youzhou, the depth of dozens of miles wide and the eleven old and small strongholds except Luanhuo City have all fallen under the control of the Huai Army.

If we talk about this Loonghuo City, it is also a place for a small geographical and historical allusion; its predecessor was Yinxiang County established by the Youzhou Governor during the Han Dynasty, and belonged to Guangyang. The Later Han Dynasty fell and the Three Kingdoms prospered, and the ancient city was destroyed by the tug-of-war between Yuan Shao and Gongsun. Only its ruins remained and rebuilt the building after the rise of the Murong family in the Northern Yan Dynasty, which is commonly known as Loonghuo City.

In the founding battle for hegemony at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, an influential local battle broke out here;

In the third year of Wude in the Tang Dynasty, because of the local power in Youzhou, Luo Yi sent envoys to the pass and returned to Tang to submit to the Tang Dynasty. Dou Jiande, the first to bear the brunt of the attack, was furious and sent the general Gao Shixing to attack Luo Yi in Youzhou. Unable to retreat and retreated to the campfire city, and was defeated by Luo Yi's cavalry.

However, after a long time, Dou Jiande's army, which had made a comeback again, was defeated by the Youzhou cavalry led by Luo Yi, relying on the advantage of the geographical advantage, and never came again.

Luanhuo City is a large military concession that is unstoppable. Compared with other city concessions that seem a bit disrepaired or increasingly abandoned, it was once the grain station and transportation hub of the Andong camp of the Northern Dynasty, so it was repaired to be particularly thick and sturdy;

It is said that it is based on the whole piece of sesame stone collected from Yanshan Mountain, and large pieces of gray bricks are piled up, and rice juice is mixed with soil to pour their gaps. Therefore, compared with Yongnu, Huichang, and Anci's county walls covered with weeds and small trees, the walls of the Loonghuo City, which are only two or three miles long and wide, have an extremely flat and clean and smooth wall.

There are even more arrow towers and whistles on the top of the city and many defenders, which do not look like they are in a good place.

Therefore, Zhao Liangsi, who arrived in advance, led the first battalion of hunting cavalry and the two battalions of cavalry infantry, and only launched a round of attacks tentatively. After being destroyed by heavy equipment such as crossbows and stone cannons on the city, the simple attacking equipment temporarily transformed by the carriage was not forced to attack, but instead gave priority to clearing the surrounding areas and blocking the internal and external contacts. He waited for the heavy equipment in the rear to be sent on.

During this period, they fought with the prominent cavalry in the city several times; however, this time the opponent's performance was not as weak as the flat cavalry he had encountered before, but reflected what it means to be skillful and easy to cut;

Therefore, when the enemy was slightly underestimated and each suffered casualties, the opponent almost succeeded in making it stand out. In the end, he caught up with the horse infantry and deployed the formation with relatively flexible and maneuverable firepower to repress and disperse it and run back.

However, after my original formation arrived, it became an absolute death and a lonely land. Although it seemed to be a bit resolute in fighting, I did not intend to give the other party such an opportunity or reputation.

“How has the land exploration been completed…”

A moment later, I saw Guan Lingzhen, deputy director of the combat engineering battalion, who was nicknamed "Botian Lei",

"Reporting to the Grand Governor, it has been initially completed."

He replied respectfully.

"The guys are looking for a dozen exploration sites and digging points..."

"The soil quality has been confirmed to be suitable in all parts of the world,"

"There is no seepage or interruption of the ground veins, and you can dig it out immediately and put it into use..."

Hearing this, I nodded slightly and said

"That's a hassle..."

Then, he took the order with excitement in front of me and left.

This time, in addition to the 40,000 troops, I also brought a further improved version of nitro explosives, which has not been truly opened yet;

Anyway, it’s just such a big city block. One mushroom cloud is not enough, then two flowers are not enough, then three flowers are not enough, and even more flowers are better. It’s just as an appetizer and a try before attacking Youzhou City.

At this time, a fierce noise and fighting suddenly came from the northwest.

"Reported that there is a protruding enemy cavalry in Youzhou City..."

"Ro Kedi, the chief supervisor of the left-wing horse army, is leading his troops to intercept the attack..."

"It's okay, let's continue to do it..."

"Try to reach Youzhou City before noon tomorrow"

............

At that time, the Youzhou defenders, who were patrolling with open fire, were suddenly shocked by the continuous trembling sounds of the horizon in the distance, and were running around the city in a busy and chaotic manner.

When Han Zhongyan and his subordinates arrived on the city to watch in person, they could clearly see a growing flame in the sky. Amid some faint cheers and roars, a faint aura of ashes and burnt smell came with the wind.

"Cage of Fire is over,"

This is the only judgment that was cold in his state of mind at this moment.

Together with the 6,500 elite defenders who were used to stop the enemy's power and act as wedges behind the enemy, as well as enough food and equipment that had been more than half a year, they were easily taken down or burned down.

After being broken through the Sanggan River defense line, these enemies who came with great strength once again exceeded his expectations and expectations. Is it really so difficult to break the invincible legend?

However, he had no time left. He had just controlled the Changhuo City in Qianqiutai, and the enemy army directly came to Youzhou City, which was only a day or two; this also meant that he would start to attack and defend Youzhou with the enemy without fully arrived.

"Send the order..."

He thought of this and made a quick decision.

"If I have no choice but to I, I will not take the initiative to fight. I will be killed."

However, before he could continue to order, even greater exclamations and noises spread on the city, but a wide and long fire dragon appeared in the wilderness in the distance.

The other party actually entrusted Yamato to attack Lanhuo City and send troops to march overnight, but the vanguard was about to arrive at Youzhou City.

Unfortunately, the few cavalrymen in the city were all used in the outer cavalry battles that supported and supported Loonghuo City during the day, and they had some damage to their strength. Otherwise, they could move forward to the middle road or ambush the city, giving the opponent a head-on attack and a powerful force.

"The soldiers can have courageous power..."

Then he still said unwillingly.
