Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Fire dragons as thick as buckets rushed towards Liangzhou City with their teeth and claws open.

Soon the entire city wall of Liangzhou City was engulfed in a sea of ​​flames, and there were still many soldiers of the Tang army who had no time to retreat in the sea of ​​flames. They screamed pitifully in the sea of ​​flames.

More Greek fires were aimed at the gates of Liangzhou City. Even the gates wrapped in iron sheets would be melted in front of the Greek fires.

Losing the resistance of the Tang army's archers on the city wall, these Turkic cavalry surrounded them again. Tens of thousands of Western Turkic cavalry raised their bows. The screams of the off-strings almost formed a line without any gaps. Tens of thousands of sharp arrows flew across the sky and shot towards Liangzhou City. Before the first arrow landed, the second round of arrow rain was thrown to the ground Mid-air, followed by the third round, the fourth round...

The wind is picking up, it's Metal Storm.

It's raining, it's the rain of death.

The soldiers of the Tang army who had finally retreated from the city wall were immediately devastated again.

The soldiers of the Tang army who had just escaped from the sea of ​​flames had not had time to catch their breath when the Western Turkic feather arrows fell like a torrential rain. Fortunately, amidst the trembling of the bowstrings of the Western Turks, the soldiers of the Tang Army fell down in rows.

Due to the hasty retreat, when many Tang soldiers ran down from the city wall, they had only one weapon, and some even dropped their weapons. The only thing they could do was to look up at the dense flying arrows in the sky. The coming feather arrow was in a daze, and then fell down after being hit by the arrow.

However, the range of bows and arrows is limited. When the generals of the Tang army ran out of the range of the bows and arrows of the Western Turks, they looked back and saw corpses strewn all over the field. Tang Jun, who was lucky enough not to fall down, looked around in horror, and all he saw was success. Piles of corpses and wounded struggling and screaming.

However, their nightmare is not over yet.

There was already a creaking sound from the city gate, which was extremely harsh amidst the crackling fire.

"Not good, city gate!"

"It's the city gate that can't hold on anymore!"

"Quick, keep the city gate!"

All the soldiers were terrified and shouted one after another.

Because everyone knew that once the city gate was breached, Liangzhou would have to be killed into a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.Given the brutal nature of the Turkic people, I am afraid that the knife will not be sealed within ten days.

However, Li Daozong looked as usual.

Finally, the scorching Greek fire melted the gate of Liangzhou City. As the flame continued to burn, the originally tall and majestic gate collapsed.

The Byzantines cheered and celebrated their achievements.

Tong Yehu Khan is a man who keeps his word. He said that if they are fired into Liangzhou City as stone bullets, they will definitely be fired into Liangzhou City.

Now that the task is finally completed, there is no need to die.

All the Greeks wept with joy, embraced each other, and wept loudly.

It's just that their cries gradually became louder.Crying out of joy turned into a howling of despair.

Yes, those Byzantines in the Western Turkic Army were desperate. At this time, a mud wall inside the city gate became as hard as brick and stone after being burned by the fierce Greek fire. It was no less difficult to break through the city. They used ballistas to blow down the city wall, and they tried it with a hammer. Judging from the echo of the mud wall in the city gate, the mud wall may be no less thick than the city wall.

Tong Yehu's face was as black as the bottom of a pot. He looked at the flag on the city wall of Liangzhou that was burned like black charcoal by the Greek fire. As the fire on the city wall was extinguished and a new flagpole was erected, the flag on that side The banner with the word "Li" in official script with black and white characters flutters against the northwest wind.

The facial muscles of Tong Yehu Khan twitched slightly, and he let out an angry roar: "Give it to me, all of it to Ben Khan, even if you hit it with your fist, I will smash the tortoise shell of Liangzhou City to Ben Khan..."

Batur took a deep breath of the blood-smelling air, filled with the choking smell of kerosene, he let out a long roar, and rushed up with a long knife. Of course, he didn't attack the city on foot, but rushed to the camp There is a huge sheepfold next to it. In fact, the sheepfold is not a sheep, but a group of people.

They are all ethnic groups in the Congling Mountains, a tribe called the Cabal.According to the meaning of the Kabal language, they claim to be people from the mountains.Of course, this nation has a characteristic. They are as thin as monkeys, but they are good at climbing. They are taller than Taixi Fengcheng, and they were captured by them.The method of attacking the city is ridiculous to say, that is, they held a cowhide shield in one hand and a flying claw in the other, threw the flying claw with a rope on the city wall, and climbed up the city wall along the rope, so the city of Taixifeng was like this was taken down.

Batur walked to the edge of the sheepfold, and said to the slaves who were raised inside like a sheepfold: "Guzainur, the walls of Liangzhou City are very high, and you are the best at attacking the city. Now, start climbing the city." Let's attack, the women in the city can choose first."

Guzainur, who was less than six feet tall, said timidly, "Tulifa, I hope to get some of the food in the city."

Batur knew that Guzainur was worried about heavy casualties and weakening the strength of his tribe, so he nodded and said, "The grain in Liangzhou City is piled up like a mountain. After taking the city, all of you can carry as much grain as you can carry." .”

If it weren't for the food in Liangzhou City, it would be relatively easier to attack Liangzhou City.Because the ballista invented by the Greeks can not only launch giant crossbow guns, but also fire stone bombs like a trebuchet, and can also launch Molotov cocktails. The ballista with more than three hundred steps can blast the city of Liangzhou into sea ​​of ​​flames.

It is not difficult to burn the Tang people in Liangzhou city to death, but after that, the food in Liangzhou city will be exhausted.Therefore, in this case, Tong Yehu Khan didn't care about casualties at all.

In Tong Yehu's eyes, there are plenty of people in the Western Regions, and if you send out some soldiers and horses at will, you can capture tens of thousands of slaves as long as they go out for a while.

Gu Zainur didn't hesitate anymore, let out a cry, and rushed forward.

Li Daozong in Liangzhou City looked in disbelief at this group of Western Turkic infantry who didn't even hold a ladder, and they rushed up like a swarm of bees.

Li Daozong said incredulously: "They actually attacked the city like this, don't they think we are dead?"

Li Daozong thought about it again and couldn't help laughing.The so-called cities in the countries of the Western Regions are actually placed in the interior, that is, at the level of the landlord’s house. Take the famous ancient city of Loulan as an example. Its city size is 12 square meters. If it is converted into mu, it is about 180 mu. .Such a city is not even considered a town in the Central Plains. The city walls are no more than two feet high, and some are only more than one foot high. up.

On the whole, the Western Turkic army is still an army that lacks siege experience. Even with ballista and Greek fire, they still cannot attack the city.The disadvantage of an army cannot be made up for by one or two new weapons. What's more, Li Daozong believes that once he is given a chance, he can use Greek fire to make Turkic people regret coming to this world.

Naturally, there was no drama in the battle. The Kabars, who were known as the best at attacking the city, suffered heavy losses under the continuous attacks of Li Daozong's rock breaking, rolling logs, and gray bottles.Especially when Li Daozong sent the golden juice of strategic nuclear weapons, the entire Kabar army collapsed suddenly.

……

After a day of intense training at the Tang army camp in Wild Boar Ridge in Lingzhou, Chen Ying sent someone to find Guo Xiaoke. Chen Ying looked at Guo Xiaoke and said, "How do you feel? Are you still used to it?"

Guo Xiaoke bowed and said: "Report to the general, the general will still get used to it!"

"Haha, listening to the meaning of your words, it seems a bit insincere!" Chen Ying pondered for a moment, then smiled: "You are a cunning, this is not like your character."

In fact, Guo Xiaoke didn't understand the true meaning of Chen Ying's training of the army. He pointed at the unlucky people who were lining up neatly and standing in military posture.These unlucky guys were physically punished because they did not complete the training tasks.

After thinking for a while, he said, "General, I don't understand why we practice formation and standing in a military posture. Could it be that we can scare the enemy to death if we walk neatly and stand neatly? As an army, you just need to learn how to kill the enemy well, is it useful to practice these all day long?"

"To be honest, it's really useless. No matter how well the queue moves, it won't scare the enemy to death. These are of little use on the battlefield." Chen Ying said seriously.

Guo Xiaoke didn't understand even more, and said in a daze: "Then why do we have to spend so much effort to learn it? Today we practiced the queue for a day. If we practice chopping or thrusting, we can at least increase our combat power." .”

Chen Ying pointed to the soldiers who were queuing up to get their meals, and asked with a smile, "Then how do you go to see them now?"

"Orderly!"

"Any more?"

Guo Xiaoke scratched his head, not understanding what Chen Ying meant.

Chen Ying asked again: "Then what's the benefit of doing this?"

Guo Xiaoke tilted his head and thought for a while, then said: "The advantage is that it is more efficient. If everyone swarms up, you won't be able to get a meal, but you can get a meal very quickly if you line up, and you don't have to worry about it." Hurt and angry."

Chen Ying raised a third question: "Then you say that if you fight them with a group of soldiers who would only swarm up to hack and kill them, who will win?"

Guo Xiaoke said without hesitation: "Does that matter? A group of mobs rushing to attack the disciplined military formation can only be sent to death!"

Chen Yingdao: "It seems that you are also very aware of the importance of discipline. But do you know what the essence of discipline is?"
