Chapter 444: Attacking Baiyan City

"Just wait until you are ready. As long as a corner of the city wall is blown down, you will immediately rush in with your troops. The people here have been stained with the blood of the Tang Dynasty. No one will be spared."

Li Xiang had already given orders to his men. Whether it was Emperor Sui Yang or Li Shimin, there were many casualties here. There was also a wounded unit that was beheaded by them in public. The reason why the Goguryeo people did this was , just to make the people of the Tang Dynasty afraid, we are back today. I wonder if you thought about today's scene when you beheaded the wounded soldiers.

"Please rest assured, Commander, the cavalry under my command are fully prepared and can be dispatched at any time."

There are still old men in Su Dingfang's army. Those people naturally remember what happened at that time. When our army was defeated, the retreat speed was a bit fast. There was a team of thousands of wounded soldiers who did not catch up. In the end, we and The personnel who were responding to our army got separated and were captured by the Goguryeo people.

The people of Goguryeo directly ordered the beheading of thousands of wounded soldiers and they all died on this land. Many people in the Tang Dynasty still remember this incident. Now they have finally come back to take revenge. Don’t think that what you did at that time was not right. People are looking for you, but the time has not come yet.

The prefect of Baiyan City had already seen the Tang army outside the city. They had also received a letter from the Goguryeo capital and were waiting for the negotiators from the Goguryeo capital. Who knew that the Tang army would arrive so quickly.

"Your Highness, look, someone is coming out."

We are almost ready here. Li Xiang is about to order his men to fire. Who knows that the gate of Baiyan City opened a small crack, and four people walked out of it, and then rode fast horses towards this side. Come over and shout that they are Goguryeo envoys as you go.

"Ballista..."

Li Xiang knows that the land under his feet is the place where the warriors of the Tang Dynasty were beheaded, so there is nothing to say now. We have already set up our positions, unless you leave the city and surrender unconditionally, but Li Xiang is not naive enough. Yes, so I won’t talk nonsense to you people.

After Li Xiang finished speaking, the two rows of sixty ballistae in the back were already arranged neatly, with two simple grenades attached to each one. This was different from the time of the battle in Tuyuhun. The battle in Tuyuhun At that time, the grenades were filled with porcelain pieces, so their lethality was limited. Now they are all made of iron pieces. Basically, they are not much different from the grenades of today. If you want to hide by relying on the shields of this era, I’m afraid it’s not very good. possible.

Su Dingfang was also stunned by Li Xiang's actions, but soon a smile appeared on his face. This is our iron-blooded grandson. I originally thought that His Highness wanted to listen to what they had to say, but he didn't expect that His Highness didn't give them anything at all. Opportunity, no matter what steps you follow, we will follow our steps. If you can't bear it, we will blame you for your bad luck.

When the two rows of cavalry in front of Li Xiang withdrew to both sides, the prefect of Baiyan City thought that the Tang army did not want to fight anymore. This guy quickly wiped the sweat from his head. Although they had defeated the Tang army before, when When they saw such a mighty army outside the city, do you think they weren't afraid?

People in small countries feel insecure all the time. Regardless of how glorious battles there are in history, if the war really breaks out again, they will be afraid in their hearts when facing a superpower.

Just when several envoys from Korea were riding over, they suddenly discovered that the crossbow behind Li Xiang was fired, and the target was their city wall. The damage to the city wall by these things was limited, and shouldn't it be closer? What's the use of hitting it from such a long distance? A few people were even ready to laugh at the generals who led troops in the Tang Dynasty. They didn't even know this bit of common sense and still led troops.

But some people also saw something wrong, that is, there seemed to be something tied to the heads of these crossbows, and those things seemed to be smoking. They had never seen these things before.

boom……

After a few breaths, these crossbow arrows landed on the city wall. It was not the arrows that caused any damage to the city wall, but the bombs tied to them that were the main force.

The prefect of Baiyan City didn't understand what was going on. His entire body had been blown off the city wall. The other soldiers were looking around with their heads open. They didn't know where the loud noise came from. Waiting for them When they came to understand, many people had also been blown away. Being able to take a plane flight when they were about to die was considered a favor given to them by Li Xiang.

Several envoys who rushed over were dumbfounded. No matter how awesome you are in the Tang Dynasty, you still have to listen to what we have to say. Now you have launched an attack without even giving us a chance to speak. This is What is the so-called Heavenly Kingdom?

The walls of Baiyan City have been reinforced five or six times, so they are very powerful. However, Li Xiang brought enough gunpowder. As long as our people still have the strength, there will be a steady stream of gunpowder to be hit. Look. Let’s see whether your walls are strong enough or whether we have enough gunpowder.

"The whole army is ready."

Su Dingfang's voice also shouted out. His eyes were still very accurate. On the left side of the city gate, a section of the city wall was about to collapse. This area also received the most explosives. From the beginning of the war to now, at least a dozen The crossbow arrows shot here, and another crossbow arrow penetrated into the gap that was blown up. It is estimated that in two breaths at most, this section of the city wall will be blown open.

The soldiers of Goguryeo had never seen such an attack before. They had prepared a lot of stones and boiling oil on the city wall. As long as the Tang army came below them, they were ready to use these things to kill and injure the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. But now they I regretted preparing so much boiling oil. When the crossbow exploded, the sparks directly ignited the oil in the pot, which burned them to death.

"It's so enjoyable, it's so enjoyable!"

"It seems we don't have to go there to fight. How many people on the city wall can stand up?"

The soldiers of the Tang Dynasty also started talking. Just now, you could see a few soldiers waving flags, but now you can't even find one. The entire city wall is burning with flames, and thick smoke is already rising. From a distance, you can see It used to be like a warning beacon. Who would have thought that before a stick of incense, this was the majestic White Rock City of Goguryeo?

"All-army assault."

Su Dingfang's voice rang out...
