On the sea surface of Myongryang Strait, there were many pieces of wood and burning warships floating. The Japanese navy finally withdrew from Myongryang Strait and gave up the fight for the strait.

"We...won..."

On the fifth day of the battle, the lords of Jingzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou finally destroyed the will of the Japanese navy. The Japanese navy, which lacked large ships, was unable to destroy the Tang army's tall ships. Instead, a large number of ships were burned, resulting in heavy casualties.

After destroying thousands of small warships, the morale of the Japanese navy was completely depleted, and the soldiers were idle in fighting, so they had to give up.

Tongque, the leader of the Eastern Han Dynasty Navy, lost his strength and sat directly on the messy deck, leaning against the Song Dynasty hero Pan Mei. They had tried their best to defeat the Japanese Navy.

Other lords and their generals were equally weak.

But no matter what, they won this national war!

"Ding! The Battle of Baijiangkou was won by the Eastern Han civilization. The military merits obtained by all Eastern Han players in this battle will be doubled."

"All Eastern Han players and lords will be sent away from the battlefield in five hours. Please count the loot in time."

After receiving the notification from the system, all the lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty breathed a sigh of relief. They did not have to worry about the Japanese navy coming back again. The system had already determined that they had won.

"Finally, it did not live up to the expectations of others. However, the battle at Baijiangkou was forced into a battle at Myeongryang Sea... Those lords of the Japanese country really caused us a lot of trouble and almost capsized the ship. We must be careful about them in the future."

Tongque was frightened for a while. The Eastern Han Dynasty Navy was almost defeated by the Japanese Navy who took the initiative to change the battlefield.

"The general has summoned you."

Tongque, who won the first place in military merit in the Eastern Han Dynasty, was summoned by Liu Rengui, the commander-in-chief of the Tang Dynasty Navy, who gave him a special reward.

The Eastern Han lords who participated in the Battle of Baijiangkou captured a group of Japanese ships and obtained numerous samurai swords and armors.

Five hours later, all the Eastern Han lords and free players from the Battle of Baijiangkou returned to the Eastern Han District, causing a huge sensation again. The national war between the Eastern Han District and the Japanese District, and the naval lords of the Eastern Han District after five fierce battles

, and ended up winning after a series of close calls!

"Fortunately we did not lose to the Japanese."

"The next step is to see the battle of Anshi City. If we can capture Anshi City, we can win two national wars!"

The players in Donghan District were excited about it.

Tongque returned to Lujiang County. In this battle at Baijiangkou, as the number one lord in the Eastern Han Dynasty, he received very generous rewards.

"The blueprint of the Sea Falcon ship is priceless. This fifth-level warship can carry 108 soldiers and 42 navy. From now on, the Yangtze River Basin will be my world. And Liu Rengui's SS-level characteristics."

Tongque randomly obtains a characteristic "Rocket Burst" from the leader Liu Rengui.

"No wonder the Tang army's rockets were so fierce. With Liu Rengui's characteristics, the Japanese navy's ships were easily ignited. But now, I also have this characteristic. In the future, I may be able to grow into a naval lord as good as Liu Rengui."

Tongque immediately prepared resources to build a fifth-level shipyard to produce Falcon ships, then built a naval camp and recruited naval archers.

There is also a special reward in his hand, a Tang Dynasty general recruitment order: "It should be possible to recruit a general from the Tang Dynasty..."

"Miss Xia, the players from the Battle of Baijiangkou have returned, and only the players from Anshi City are left."

Xia Tianliang is currently busy arranging the layout of the horse market, negotiating with horse dealers on the price of war horses and the relevant regulations for entering the Xiacheng horse market.

She couldn't help but look forward to it when she learned that one of the national wars in the Donghan District was won, leaving only the Battle of Anshi City.

Chu Tian took the main force to participate in the battle of Anshi City. She always felt that Xia Cheng lacked a backbone and some things were not easy to decide. Sometimes it was not easy to make decisions because of too much consideration.

"Miss Xia, Xueyue Town was attacked by Qi Xiaobai, the lord of Yangdu County, and asked us for help!"

Along with the good news came bad news. Xueyue Town, 120 kilometers away from Xia City, was once again attacked by Qi Xiaobai.

"My fellow shopkeepers, I have something important to deal with. My deputy will continue to negotiate with you."

When Xia Liang learned about this, he handed over the task of negotiating with Ma Shang to the officials below, and then went to find Li Kui and Liu Sandao in person.

The three of them are responsible for staying in Xia City, and troops can only be sent out with the unanimous consent of the three of them.

"Xueyue Town is an ally of our lord, and it is an important town that protects the north. Qi Xiaobai from Yangdu County has an enemy with us, and he will make a comeback. Once he captures Xueyue Town and other surrounding villages and towns, and has thirty towns,

It will pose a threat to us. Therefore, Xueyue Town must be saved."

Xia Liang looked at the two people. Li Kui and Liu Sandao did not obtain the information as fast as she did. After learning about this, they both took the initiative.

Li Kui said: "Before the Lord left, he asked us to focus on defense and try to avoid fighting outside the city. Therefore, this support must be cautious."

"General Liu and I each led a small group of soldiers and horses, and we acted as horns to prevent one group of soldiers from being ambushed and the entire army being annihilated."

The three-person team left behind in Xiacheng was quickly determined, with Xia Liang leading 1,500 people and Liu Sandao leading 2,200 people to reinforce Xueyue Town.

Xia City is protected and basically does not need to be defended by main troops. It only needs the usual city defense troops to maintain law and order.

Outside Xueyue Town are siege troops all over the mountains and plains.

This time, Qi Xiaobai and Wu Sangui recruited tens of thousands of soldiers and local braves, intending to capture Xueyue Town and nearby villages and towns in one fell swoop, and sweep through Kaiyang County.

"The second time I attack Xueyue Town, I must not suffer the same setback as the first time. This time I attack Xueyue Town not in the name of the guild, but in the name of the lord personally. I am bound to win!"

Qi Xiaobai appeared below Xueyue Town. Because of Wu Sangui's suggestion, he used force to unify the southern part of Yangdu County and got a second chance to attack Xueyue Town.

Without Wu Sangui, he might have collapsed after his first failed attack on Xueyue Town. Now, he relies heavily on Wu Sangui. Precisely because of Wu Sangui's existence, a comeback is unknown.

"Xia Cheng and Xueyue Town have formed an alliance and will never sit idly by when Xueyue Town is besieged. Therefore, they will definitely provide reinforcements to Xueyue Town. Wu Sangui, you lead your troops to ambush Xia Cheng's reinforcements. They huddle in Xia City

The city can still be protected. But if you leave Xia City, you will no longer be protected. Wait...if you lead too many soldiers and horses to leave, the defenders will notice that we are setting up an ambush."

Qi Xiaobai's methods gradually became tougher and he had already thought of countermeasures.

Wu Sangui replied: "My lord, you can order a group of country warriors to pretend to be siege soldiers. With just over 2,000 subordinates, you can defeat the reinforcements from Xia Town."

"I trust you."

Qi Xiaobai handed over an army of 2,500 men to Wu Sangui's command.

Because Qi Xiaobai reused Wu Sangui and rewarded Wu Sangui with gold, silver and land from time to time, Wu Sangui's loyalty has been greatly improved. Now Qi Xiaobai can use Wu Sangui with confidence.

Wu Sangui led his soldiers to ambush the Xiacheng reinforcements.

In Anshi City, the Tang army launched an offensive again. One team after another, the Tang army attacked the solid city wall.

The trebuchets and ballistae destroyed almost all the arrow towers and towers in the city, and the soldiers of the Tang Army followed the ladder trucks and the suspension bridges of the siege towers to attack!

Tang army generals Xue Wanche, Ashina Sheer and others personally led troops to attack the city, indicating that Li Shimin had been angered.

The shouts of killing were loud and clear on the battlefield. In order to storm Anshi City, the Tang army continued to suffer tens of thousands of casualties for several days, including dozens of siege towers, ladder trucks, and lair trucks!

The lords of the Eastern Han Dynasty successively sent generals and soldiers to attack the city. Even the leader of the alliance Jiujiu Lao Qin sent Qin general Meng Wu to lead a group of infantry to attack the city and gained some military achievements.

Another Qin general, Meng Tian, ​​was a cavalry general, so Jiujiu and Lao Qin did not send him into battle.

As the commander of the Second Army, Chu Tian sent Zhou Yafu or Li Guang to lead a group of infantry from time to time to participate in the siege.

Pang Juan, a subordinate of Prince Wen of the East County lord, and his infantry, finally played a role in the siege and once scaled the city wall. However, Pang Juan was still driven off the city wall by the swarming defenders.

Tian Qi, the lord of Pingyuan County, led the Jizhou crossbowmen to assist the Tang army's crossbowmen in suppressing the defenders' arrow rain.

Xue Yue planned to lead a group of free players with higher strength to climb the city wall first, but was stopped by Chu Tian.

In such a brutal battle of this scale, Chutian couldn't let them take risks, so it was better to use the soldiers and horses he recruited to consume them.

Siege warfare is no better than this. If you want to lose less, use cunning tactics. The safest way is to carry out a long siege. The defenders will surrender after eating the food. If you want to break the city as soon as possible, you will have to pay a price for a strong attack.

Chu Tian did not personally participate in the siege, but just watching the continuous siege battle, he felt a little numb.

The attack on Anshi City has lasted for six days, but there has been little progress.

"During the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period, Zhou Shizong Chai Rong personally went on an expedition and mobilized hundreds of thousands of people to besiege the city of Shouzhou. Liu Renzhan, a famous general of the Southern Tang Dynasty, held the city for more than a year until he was critically ill and then fell. In some places, the terrain is difficult and dangerous, and as long as there is one

A qualified defender will not be able to capture the city until the food in the city is exhausted."

The injured Lord Dahu of Jiuyuan County in Bingzhou was now full of energy. The attributes of his Bingzhou cavalry would decrease when attacking the city, so he had to watch the battle below.

The bricks of Anshi City were in ruins, but there was still a thick layer of rammed earth blocking the Tang army.

The cavalry of the Tang Army and the Eastern Han Army was the most ferocious, and there were a large number of cavalry generals. When the cavalry across the world encountered a fortified city, they had no choice but to scratch their heads, not knowing how to attack.

The elderly Li Shimin took a nap in the carriage, and when he woke up, he asked: "Has Anshi City been taken down?"

"Your Majesty, General Right Guard, Bi Guogong personally led the troops to attack the city, but there has been no progress yet."

Li Shimin looked at the battlefield of Anshi City where the war was raging.

Even after six consecutive days of strong attack, Anshi City could not be captured.

"Perhaps it is not the best time to destroy Goguryeo."

Li Shimin hesitated a little.

Suddenly, a shocking scene occurred on the battlefield. A huge earth mountain began to collapse due to long-term attacks by the defenders' catapults and calculation errors when piling up the earth mountain.

A nearly thirty-meter-high earth mountain collapsed toward Anshi City!

"Run away!"

The wooden arrow tower on the earth mountain collapsed, the crossbow fell, and the Tang army's archers fled desperately, but their feet could not keep up with the speed of the earth mountain collapse!

All the Tang and Han troops who participated in the siege were horrified to see a horrific scene they had never seen in their lives. A 30-meter-high mountain of earth weighing hundreds of tons collapsed!

The defenders of Anshi City on the city wall noticed that the sky suddenly darkened. They looked up to the sky and saw a huge mountain of earth collapsing and hitting the city wall!

"No!"

Even if the dozens of Anshi city defenders reacted, they would not be able to escape, and they would watch helplessly as the collapsing earth mountain submerged them!
To be continued...
