Chapter 12 The Fall of Anshi City

Anshicheng!

The war drums rolled across the earth like dull thunder.

The arrow feathers poured down in the sky, and the soldiers on Anshi City did not dare to stretch out their battlements.

Yang Wanchun hid in the battlements, not daring to poke his head out. He listened to the sound of arrows like raindrops in his ears. From time to time, the battlements fell on his face, and his mouth was full of bitterness.

"Master, what if you said!"

Yang Wanchun's father was an honest countryman. Decades ago, when Yang Guang conquered Goguryeo, the Sui army was defeated by Goguryeo. More than 300,000 Sui troops who entered the hinterland of Goguryeo were killed by the entire army, but only more than 2,000 people fled back to Liaodong.

This does not mean that Goguryeo killed more than 300,000 Sui soldiers in the battle, and the defeated soldiers fled in scattered.

Even though he is in a foreign land, he has little chance of escaping from heaven, and some are still spared.

Among them is the Right Military General Zhao Xiaocai.

When the Sui army was defeated, Zhao Xiaocai fled in a panic and panicked. In order to protect himself, he took off his clothes and stole a piece of clothing from the village. He ran blindly into the barren mountains, but accidentally caught the hunter's hunter's trap in the woods and died in the snow.

The hunter thought he was a Chinese man, so he rescued him back to the village and found a doctor in the village to treat him. After he woke up, he found out that he was from Sui.

Goguryeo and the Sui Dynasty have been hostile for a long time.

The hunter originally wanted to kill Zhao Xiaocai, but because the children at home were on the side, he was unwilling to kill him in front of him and could not do anything.

Zhao Xiaocai is a smart person. He knows that his legs were seriously damaged and he is in the hinterland of Goguryeo. He will definitely not be able to survive after leaving. Why not stay here and then seek other methods?

Zhao Xiaocai couldn't understand Goguryeo's words, but Goguryeo's words were Chinese.

It is easy to create language, but only Chinese characters can be called complete in East Asia in terms of languages. Other Korean Peninsula Hikari, Japanese Khaina, Manchu, Khitan, and Jurchen are all incomplete, so the official written texts of these countries in ancient times were all mainly Chinese.

Zhao Xiaocai communicated with hunters in Chinese characters and was willing to teach children's culture in exchange for staying.

The hunter was immediately moved.

In the Goguryeo Golden Glory, it has been absorbing Chinese culture for a hundred years. If you don’t understand Chinese culture, there is almost no chance to make a comeback. And ordinary people have the opportunity to learn Chinese culture.

The hunter didn't want his descendants to be trapped in this small village, so he boldly kept Zhao Xiaocai for the sake of his children.

The son of the hunter is Yang Wanchun.

Zhao Xiaocai initially wanted to survive, but Yang Wanchun was extremely talented, quick and studious, which made Zhao Xiaocai feel proud of talent and taught him to read and write. Later, Zhao Xiao learned that Yang Guang was killed by Yu Culture and the Sui Dynasty was destroyed.

Zhao Xiaocai, who was already lame, completely cut off his desire to return to China and began to teach Yang Wanchun's martial arts and strategies.

Yang Wanchun has excellent comprehension and is very powerful than the best.

Twenty-year-old Yang Wanchun even set out to travel in the Central Plains for three years because he yearned for the Central Plains. He learned Chinese language from Zhao Xiaocai since he was a child. At that time, the world was in chaos and did not attract attention and learned a lot of things.

After returning to China, with all his abilities, he emerged from Goguryeo, which lacks talent, and became the lord of Anshi City.

Before his death, Zhao Xiaocai told Yang Wanchun that with your ability, he can be regarded as the best of Goguryeo. However, China is vast and has many talents, and it is the same as China. It is just a middle-class and superior resource. If you unfortunately encounter it in the future, you must not be careless.

Yang Wanchun always thought that with the solidarity of Anshi City, the Tang army could not be extended, and even if there were a million, they could not do anything.

Unexpectedly, the city towers of Anshicheng had changed hands several times in just ten days of fierce battle.

During the truce, he secretly counted the dead bodies of both sides and found that the soldiers who died in each other were nearly half.

He is the defender, he has an absolute advantage, and he still fights 55. If there is no such a strong city, what can I do to fight against the Tang army?

If I hadn't saved myself, Anshicheng would have been occupied by the other party.

Now the Tang army relies on the advantages of bows and crossbows to build a mountain of earth outside the city to shoot at it.

It was still higher in Anshi City and condescendingly, but the other party was shot into a turtle with a head-reducing turtle.

Without thinking, the Tang army's siege soldiers had approached the city tower under the cover of the opponent's arrow rain.

Once the arrow rain stops, the beginning of their strong attack.

"Damn it!"

Yang Wanchun spitted, and if he continued to fight like this, he would be exhausted to death.

The rain of arrows stopped, and Yang Wanchun looked over and saw a group of soldiers coming to the city gate surrounded by huge siege rams.

An arrow shot towards him.

Yang Wanchun shrank again, and accurate arrows passed by the battlements.

Yang Wanchun was sweating profusely.

"Dong!"

The siege ram hit the city gate heavily. Each impact caused a vibration that seemed to knock down the city walls.

Hundreds of cloud ladders were pushed under the city wall, and countless roads leading to the city were instantly built.

Yang Wanchun had no choice but to grit her teeth and shout to welcome the enemy.

The Tang army was well-trained and some soldiers had already climbed up the ladder.

Yang Wanchun suddenly felt alert and shouted: "Hurry up, notify everyone and go up to the city tower to meet the enemy."

On the hills in the distance.

Li Shimin looked up at the city of Anshi, and smiled and said, "A good general, the reaction should be faster than I thought." He said to Changsun Wuji beside him, "After breaking the city, let the soldiers find this person. Survive by chance and give him treatment. I want him to use it for my own purposes..."

It was precisely because Yang Wanchun caused him a lot of trouble that the love for his talent aroused His Majesty Tian Khan.

The defenders on the city tower suddenly became panicked.

"The city is about to break."

Excited shouts came from the surrounding area.

The Tang army, like a tide, had already surged to the top of the city.

Li Shimin didn't have too much joy on his face, but looked at all for granted.

This result was obtained by the Tang army with more than 4,000 fresh lives.

Since the decision to attack, eight generals including Li Ji, Li Daozong, Zhang Shigui, Zhang Jian and others took turns to attack, and were all defended by Yang Wanchun's soldiers blocking the water and soil.

Then Li Shimin realized that it was difficult to conquer the city without some means.

Therefore, soldiers were sent to harass the city day and night, and while letting the soldiers in the first place be restored, they were sent to attack the city, and they acted like a waste of money.

After seven days of continuous development, Li Shimin saw that the time was ripe, he directly sent the soldiers to attack.

Originally, the soldiers in Anshi were exhausted by the Tang army's attacks, and suddenly received a fierce attack from the first-row soldiers changing their rhythm. The reaction was half a beat slower, resulting in a large number of first-row soldiers climbing into the city.

Losing the cover of the city, the Tang army far surpassed the Goguryeo soldiers in terms of individual quality and fine weapons and armor, and soon gained the upper hand and cleared out a clearing of open space.

The Tang army, who had been hungry and thirsty, swarmed into the city with sharpening their knives.

Anshi City is in a fall!!
