The strongest son-in-law of the Tang Dynasty

An orderly came in.

Oh!

Silla!

In the past month, Silla sent several waves of envoys, strongly urging the Tang Emperor's army to start war on Baekje as soon as possible.

Du He has been suppressing, turning a blind eye, going his own way, and completely ignoring Silla's requests and suggestions.

It is not up to Silla to decide when the empire will set off.

"Invite the envoys of Silla to come in!"

Doo Ho said.

"Meet General Du."

Kim Jong said respectfully.

"Lord Jin, I don't know what's the matter with coming to General Ben this time?"

Du He smiled.

"General Du, our Silla is in a very difficult situation, and Wangdi's army will send troops to Baekje immediately to relieve the pressure on our army.

If the imperial army does not come out again, our Silla will really not be able to sustain it. "

Jin Zheng said with a bitter face.

Ha ha!

"Lord Jin, it's not that this general will not send troops, it's that the imperial army needs supplies, and the supplies are not only food and grass,

There is also a huge consumption of weapons, and the weapons in the hands of soldiers are seriously damaged. How can soldiers be put into the battlefield without supplies. "

Du He is very shameless, one pushes two five eight.

Do the weapons in the hands of imperial soldiers really need to be replenished?

It is indeed needed, but it is only part of the supply, and most of them are not needed. It is nothing more than an excuse.

"General Du, Silla really can't resist Baekje's attack. I hope that General Du will send troops to help Silla for the sake of the friendly relationship between the two countries."

Kim Jong-do.

"Master Jin, don't worry, this general has just received supplies, and the weapons that his soldiers lack have been replaced.

Not surprisingly, after three days, the imperial army will press on Baekje. "

Doo Ho said.

After hearing this, Jin Zheng was extremely pleasantly surprised.

Finally going to send troops.

"General Du, you can't be fooling me!"

Kim Jong-do.

Ha ha!

"Master Jin, when will this general stop talking, this general is a very committed person."

Doo Ho said.

"Thank you, General Du! On behalf of the Queen, thank you!"

Kim Jong-do.

"Okay, Lord Jin, go out in three days. Your army will resist again in the next few days. Once the imperial army crosses the Han River, Baekje will be subjugated."

Doo Ho said.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

The imperial army has really sent troops.

Teams of imperial soldiers walked out of Pingyang City and marched towards the Han River.

During this troop dispatch, the officers and soldiers under Du He changed their shotguns, and their mental outlook was completely new, with high fighting spirit.

The helmet is configured to the soldier.

That's a big deal.

When will soldiers be able to wear helmets?

With the steam engine, it is not difficult to press the helmet, and it is all formed at one time.

After all, Liaoxi City has already produced a thousand-ton air hammer.

The armor, helmets, knives and guns of the soldiers and horses under Du He's banner were all formed at one time, without other processes.

"General Du, this is the master of tigers and wolves!"

Kim Jong-do.

Seeing the formation of the imperial army, Jin Zheng was deeply shocked.

The equipment is too awesome.

Ha ha!

"Lord Jin, this general has been leading troops for two years, and the soldiers have been baptized, all of them are bloody veterans who have experienced the great war.

The combat power must be overwhelming, there is no doubt about this. "

Duhe said proudly.

Jin Zheng was completely relieved.

The speed of the imperial army was very slow, only marching tens of miles a day, no matter how Jin Zheng urged, Du He turned a blind eye.

This made Jin Zheng extremely anxious.

Du He also knew that Silla really couldn't hold on anymore.

More than ten days later, the imperial army reached the Han River.

The North Sea Fleet led by Lu Xun waited early and hurried ashore to see Du He.

The large / army stationed down.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Lu Xun, Du He, and the generals saluted one after another.

"Bo Yan, what's the situation with Baekje?"

Doo asked.

"Master, during this period of time, the North Sea Fleet, in addition to revising the military system and selecting military ranks, we have also carried out reconnaissance on the coastal areas of Baekje.

Destroyed some Baekje bases.However, it was not completely wiped out.After all, those two steam engine warships did not set off,

Just send merchant ships to war.The point is that the coal used for steam engines has not been purchased in place, and the North Sea Fleet has been affected to a certain extent.

In another month, the steam engine battleship has enough coal to sail to the battlefield. "

Lawson Road.

Du He nodded.

New things, new things, there is an adaptation process.

Don't expect anything to be done right away.

"Bo Yan, what's the situation on the other side of the Han River?"

Doo asked.

"Master, in order to prevent the imperial army from crossing the river, tens of thousands of troops have been stationed on the Han River. However, it is far from the shore, and the warships are basically out of reach.

When the imperial army crossed the river, the fleet could only provide fire support. Once it landed, it was up to the army to solve it by itself. "

Lawson Road.

Du He understood in his heart.

It is impossible for Baekje to abandon the Han River. In that case, once the imperial army crosses the river, Baekje will not be able to resist at all.

"Okay! Tomorrow the imperial army crosses the Han River, Boyan is ready."

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

"By the way, Boyan, now with the addition of two steam engine battleships, how many soldiers can be transported at one time?"

Doo Ho said.

"Master, if it's just infantry, you can cross about 8000 people at a time. If you want to cross horses, you can have up to 5000 horses."

Lawson Road.

"Young Master Yuchi, you will take the lead tomorrow. Let Fang Laoer bring 2000 archers to accompany you in the landing battle."

Duhe ordered.

"As ordered!"

"The second wave of crossing the Han River is the soldiers and horses under Mr. Cheng, try to gain a foothold in the shortest possible time, and don't let Baekje get caught up in the water!"

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

"The third wave of crossing the Han River is the 1000 heavy cavalry under Mr. Li and the 3000 iron cavalry under Xue Li.

Next, Li Deqiu, Dian Wei, Peng Yue's iron cavalry, and Qin Li's troops, the general finally crossed the river. "

Doo Ho said.

"As ordered!"

"Okay, let's go!"

Doo Ho said.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the soldiers of the imperial army got up one after another, lit a fire to cook, and wiped their weapons.

The soldiers were full of fighting spirit and confidence.

Du He took his personal guards, rode a red rabbit to the river bank, and used binoculars to observe the situation on the opposite side.

The Baekje soldiers hid well, but they still couldn't escape Du He's eyes.

"Soldiers aboard!"

Duhe ordered.

Teams of heavy infantry stepped onto the ship, and 2000 archers boarded the ship with bows in hand.

The warship sailed slowly towards the opposite bank of the Han River.

With the experience of crossing the Lu River last time, Lu Xun had a new understanding of the beach landing operation.

Seeing that the imperial warship carrying soldiers was about to go ashore.

The hidden Baekje soldiers had no choice but to show up.

brush!

The catapults pushed forward one after another, and stopped at a distance of 300 steps from Jiang'an, ready to deal a heavy blow to the imperial army.

On Lu Xun's warships, the effective shooting distance of the catapult is not much different from that of the Baekje catapult.

But what?

The ballista on the warship has an effective shooting distance of up to 1000 steps.

As soon as the warships entered the shooting range of the ballista, they shot rockets towards the location of the Baekje catapult.

Whoosh whoosh!

Hundreds of crossbow arrows quickly flew to the Baekje position.

Bang bang bang!

Catapults were on fire.
