Li Shimin smiled without saying a word, while Li Ke looked at Hou Junji with a smile.

"Lord Hou, our army fought a decisive battle with the 11 Goguryeo army in Liaodong City."

"In this battle, our army wiped out 11 troops of Goguryeo, and captured Liaodong City and Baiyan City."

Li Ke smiled, and briefly explained the situation to Hou Junji.

"Annihilate 11 enemy troops?"

Hearing Li Ke's words, Hou Junji couldn't help exclaiming, his face was full of shock!

He really guessed right, Li Ke's army really came all the way!

From Beisha City to Liaodong City, and then to Gaimu City.

Moreover, in the Battle of Liaodong City, as many as 11 enemy troops were wiped out in one fell swoop. This record is really exaggerated!

No wonder there are not many reinforcements in Gaimu City, they all went to Liaodong City.

"How about our army's losses?"

Hou Junji thought of a question and asked quickly.

In the previous battle report, Li Ke's army wiped out the Goguryeo water fleet at sea and captured Beisha City without any casualties.

But in the siege battle after that, and the battle to wipe out 11 enemy troops in Liaodong City, it can't be that there are no casualties, right?

"There were no casualties."

Li Ke smiled and said confidently.

This is the dimensionality reduction blow of hot weapons against cold weapons. Even in the face of an army of 11, it can guarantee that no one is killed or injured!

The main thing is the advantage of the needle gun, the reload is too fast.

Moreover, Li Ke also uses nitrocellulose gunpowder, which burns very well and will not leave unburned paper shells in the barrel.

This saves the step of cleaning the barrel and saves a lot of time.

This has greatly improved the firepower of the musket, which is more advanced than ordinary thermal weapons.

If it was the original arquebus or front-loading flintlock, it would be absolutely impossible to maintain this record of no casualties.

After all, neither the matchlock gun nor the front-loading flintlock can reach the firepower of the current Tang army.

Even if it can cause great damage to the enemy at a distance, the firepower will be weakened many times.

As long as the enemy rushes into our position, the arquebus and flintlock will become fire sticks, and we still have to take up spears and swords to fight the enemy.

In this way, casualties will naturally come up.

However, the advantage of the rear-loading needle gun has increased the firepower of the musket many times, directly preventing the enemy from approaching our position at all.

As long as there is no close hand-to-hand combat, there will be basically no casualties.

After hearing Li Ke's personal admission that even though 11 enemy troops were wiped out in the Battle of Liaodong City, Hou Junji was stunned!

Because this is absolutely unimaginable in his so many years of fighting career.

"Haha, Lord Hou will understand my mood at that time after watching the next battle carefully."‖

Li Ji couldn't help laughing immediately after seeing Hou Junji's expression.

Because he seemed to see his original shadow in Hou Junji.

When I heard about Li Ke's record for the first time, I also had the same reaction and expression as Hou Junji.

However, as long as Hou Junji witnessed Li Ke's army fighting a battle with his own eyes, he would naturally understand that although all this sounds incredible, it seems reasonable to fight.

"Then I am very much looking forward to this battle!"

Hou Junji's eyes were full of anticipation, and he couldn't wait to see how Li Ke's army fought.

As for credit, he, like Li Ji, planned to show off.

After all, Li Ke fought all the way down and wiped out the 21 troops of Goguryeo, and he deserves to be the greatest hero.

Although he wiped out nearly ten thousand enemies, he was nothing compared to Li Ke.

"It's all about the advantages of weapons and equipment. Master Hou can wipe out nearly ten thousand enemies with conventional weapons. This is his ability."

Li Ke knew that Hou Junji was obsessed with meritorious service, so he also comforted him.

"His Royal Highness King Wu praised me, I'm not someone who can't recognize reality."

"Besides, it is normal for His Highness King Wu to make meritorious service."

Hou Junji understood that Li Ke was comforting him, and immediately saluted Li Ke.

If the meritorious person is someone else, he may still feel a little uncomfortable.

But Li Ke is the one who made the meritorious service, so he has no idea at all.

Because Li Ke was capable and talented, it was Li Ke who created such things as explosive kits.

Now it is Li Ke's ability to come up with more powerful artillery and muskets.

Besides, since Li Ke wrote that letter to him, he was completely determined to follow Li Ke.

Li Ke's meritorious service is considered to be closer to his goal, so he naturally doesn't have any thoughts in his heart.

Li Shimin saw this scene, his eyes became thoughtful.

He knew Hou Junji very well, he was capable and capable, but he was very proud.

I didn't expect Hou Junji to be so convinced of Li Ke, which is quite surprising.

It seems that Li Ke is really capable, even someone as proud as Hou Junji can take it down.

"The army is ready to attack Gaimu City!"

The smile on Li Ke's face subsided slightly, and then he gave the order to the army.

Hou Junji's siege and rescue plan is good, but for him, it is more appropriate to push all the way.

With a siege weapon like a cannon, who wants to play with you here to fight for aid!

Immediately, the artillery began to be mobilized, and the muzzles of the cannons were aimed at the gate of Gaimu City.

beep!

With a whistle, the artillery roared, and the dense shells roared towards the gates and towers of Gaimu City.

Bang bang bang!

The shells smashed heavily on the city gate and tower, the gate collapsed, and the commanding generals on the tower were also smashed into mud.

Without Li Ke's command, thousands of soldiers with muskets quickly approached Gaimu City in battle formation.

Seeing this scene, Hou Junji fell silent.

Is this the city of Gaimu that he has been besieging for so many days?

After Li Ke came, the city gate was directly smashed into pieces with just one round of shell attack!

Now he knows why Li Ke's army can fight all the way so quickly.

With artillery, isn't siege a joke?

With an easy round of artillery bombardment, the gate of the city was directly smashed to pieces, and then the army could drive straight in. Wouldn't a city be captured?

The guard of Gaimu City seemed to have also received the news from Liaodong City, knowing that he could not fight the Tang army outside, otherwise he would be killed by the Tang army's terrifying weapons.

So, seeing that the city gate was breached, they simply gave up on the city gate, but shrunk their front and retreated strategically into the city.

The advantage of the Tang army is its extremely long range, but if it is fighting in the streets of the city, this range advantage can be completely minimized.

In that case, relying on their familiar terrain advantage, they might still be able to fight a dozen.

There are still smart people among the Goguryeo generals. Pulling the Tang army into street fighting has indeed reduced the advantages of artillery and muskets by a lot.

After the Shenji Camp and the officers and soldiers of the Yangzhou Navy entered the city, they encountered some troubles.

For example, an archer suddenly appeared in a house tens of meters away and shot an arrow towards Tang Jun.

Seeing that person, more than a dozen people immediately shot at him.

Although the man was smashed into a sieve in an instant, the arrow was still fired.

At such a close distance, people naturally couldn't react, and soon some soldiers of the Tang army were injured.

This is also the first time that Li Ke's army has been injured since the war started.

"¨Someone is injured, quickly carry it out of the city!"

"Pay attention to the house, there are archers inside!"

Seeing this, a general immediately reminded him loudly.

"Yes."

Everyone nodded, and then looked warily at the surrounding houses.

At the same time, the usual training subjects were finally used.

The two soldiers carried their muskets behind their backs, and then carried the wounded soldier out of the city of Gaimu.

Seeing that someone was injured, the military doctor who had been sick all the way quickly stepped forward with a medical kit and began to deal with it.

Sprinkle Mabosan on the wound to anesthetize the injured area, then pull out the arrow and quickly stop the bleeding with gauze.

Then disinfect with medical alcohol, suture with needles and threads, and then bandage and so on.

One set of operations is very skilled, and quickly helped the soldiers treat the wounds.

Seeing this scene, Li Shimin and the others showed deep surprise in their eyes.

The emergency rescue and healing capabilities on this battlefield are too strong!

And this operation is also very novel, what is the purpose of pouring alcohol on the wound?

And the wound was stitched up with a needle and thread like mending clothes?

Although surprised by this in their hearts, they didn't ask about it either.

Because this is not the top priority, the top priority is what happened in the city?

They fought all the way from the sea, but no one was injured or injured.

Even facing the siege of 11 enemy troops in the Battle of Liaodong City, there were no casualties.

And now, just after entering Gaimu City for a while, people were injured, and there must be a reason for this.

"what's the situation?"

Li Ke was also a little surprised, and asked the soldier who was carrying the wounded.

"Report to Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wu."

"The enemy army knew that our muskets were sharp, so they chose to engage in street fighting with our army."

"They are hiding in houses everywhere, shooting us in the back, it's impossible to guard against!"

One of the soldiers quickly told Li Shimin, Li Ke and others about the situation in the city.

Hearing this, a look of understanding flashed across Li Ke's eyes.

It seems that the generals of Gaimu City still have something to do. They know how to deal with weapons like muskets so quickly.

Muskets are indeed powerful, but they require vision.

Street fighting can greatly limit the musketeer's field of vision, how can the enemy shoot if he can't find it?

In this way, the distance between the two sides can be shortened, and then there will be a chance to shoot in the back and cause damage to the Tang army.

"It's really smart, but it's a pity that these are futile in the face of absolute strength."

Li Ke shook his head. The other party thought very well, but he is not a fool. If the other party wants to fight in the street, does he want to accompany the other party to fight in the street?

"Come here, transport the artillery into the city, and fire indiscriminately!"

Li Ke directly ordered the artillerymen.

street fighting?Hiding in a house?

I'll bulldoze your entire city and see where you hide?See how you fight me in the street?
