Chapter 745 The first battle of the academic school

Thirty years later, the soldiers and civilians of Liaodong City were once again plunged into panic.

Back then, Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty led a million-strong army to attack Goguryeo, and not a single mosquito in Liaodong City could fly out.

Relying on the fake surrender, the layman Yang Guang, who was so happy about his success, commanded the experts, and finally the Goguryeo people succeeded in making a comeback.

But those who have experienced that war still have lingering fears every time they think of the original scene.

Of course, having faced such a big scene before, many people did not pay attention to the tens of thousands of Tang troops outside at first.

Who knew that these tens of thousands of Tang troops could bring such great pressure.

"General, in the past three days, more than 500 soldiers have been directly burned to death by kerosene bombs dropped from hot-air balloons, and hundreds of houses have been burned down."

In the Lord's Mansion of Liaodong City, several officials were reporting the losses in the past few days to Quanpusi.

"It's just that more than 500 people died. Why is the city already so panicked?"

Quanpusi was a little puzzled, "Could it be that your statistics are wrong?"

"General, the more than 500 soldiers have been counted, including all the missing soldiers. The number of dead and injured soldiers will only be less and not more. The reason why the soldiers are nervous is mainly because the hot air balloons are above the city all day long.

Drifting, throwing a kerosene bomb down from time to time, no one knows when it will fall on their head. But for this situation, everyone seems to be unable to do anything, even a warrior like Quan Wudi, in the kerosene bomb

Under the attack, he didn't even have the slightest ability to fight back."

Liaodong City is so big, unless the hot air balloon camp drops kerosene bombs on all the houses indiscriminately, the real damage to Goguryeo will not be great.

However, the feeling of having no choice but to wait for death without any way to resist deeply affected the defenders' confidence.

This is exactly what Li Shimin hopes to achieve.

"The number of kerosene bombs of the Tang Army must be very limited. I guess these kerosene bombs were transported from Chang'an City. Now that they have penetrated deep into our Liaodong, and they are all cavalry, I estimate that the supplies they need to survive are very large.

It's difficult. You tell the soldiers not to worry. The Tang Dynasty doesn't have many kerosene bombs. If there were so many, they would have just thrown them down. Is there any need for such a constant patter?"

As an experienced general, Quanpusi could obviously guess the current situation of the Tang Dynasty.

But what can we do if we can guess?

Does this fear mean that it doesn’t exist if it doesn’t exist?

"General, my subordinates also told the soldiers this, but the effect doesn't seem to be very good. The most troublesome thing is that the people in the city seem to be worried about the war. After all, many people's family members are serving in the military, and panic spreads very quickly.

quick."

"Let's go! I'll go around the city myself to appease the morale of the army and the people!"

Quanpusi thought for a while and came up with an effective method.

As the lord of Liaodong City, Quanpusi's prestige is still very high.

If he appeared in person on every street in the city and walked around the city wall, it would be very effective in alleviating everyone's panic.

In fact, the results were very close to what Quanpu expected.

When the sun set that day, Quan Pusi, who had been wandering around the city for a day before returning to the city lord's palace, received a report from his subordinates, saying that the panic in the army had been greatly alleviated.

This made Quanpusi breathe a sigh of relief.

However, after a while, he frowned again.

Datang's style of play worried him a lot.

This is a situation that has never been encountered before.

If one day the Tang army dropped kerosene bombs into the city indiscriminately, once the fire got out of control, most of Liaodong City would be destroyed.

If the Tang army launched another attack at that time, it is very likely that this first fortified city in Liaodong would be captured.

With such worries, Quanpusi slowly fell asleep.

Outside the city, Cheng Chuliang and Qin Shandao each led dozens of elite Flying Tigers, wearing night clothes, and quickly approached Liaodong City under the cover of night.

The main reason why the entire Flying Tigers were not allowed to sneak into the city together was to reduce the risk of exposure as much as possible.

These dozens of people are almost all carefully selected individual combat experts from the Flying Tigers.

Once they successfully infiltrate, they are expected to cause hundreds or even thousands of casualties to the Goguryeo people in a short period of time.

When the time comes, the situation in the city that has finally stabilized will change immediately.

"clang!"

A Flying Tiger team member operated the anchor hook launcher and accurately shot the anchor hook connected to the cable to the top of the city wall.

Although in the quiet night, this sound is more obvious.

However, the patrolling officers of Goguryeo looked outside the city suspiciously and found no movement, so they continued to patrol the city wall.

Under the city wall, Cheng Chuliang finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the patrolling Goguryeo looking towards him and then leaving.

Under the faint moonlight, Cheng Chuliang gestured, took the lead and grabbed the cable integrated with the city wall, and quickly climbed up the wall.

The members of the Flying Tigers have practiced this set of actions countless times, and everyone can easily complete it.

After that, other team members followed suit and climbed onto the city wall one after another.

However, a few of them were not very lucky and happened to wake up a few Goguryeo people who were resting inside the walls.

"puff!"

"puff!"

"puff!"

Indecisiveness leads to disaster!

The snipers of the Flying Tigers decisively used crossbows to kill these unexpected enemies.

In order to delay the Goguryeo people's discovery of someone entering the city as much as possible, the Flying Tigers also helped these Goguryeo people back to rest inside the wall, and by the way, they took care of a few sleeping soldiers inside.

"Cuckoo! Cuckoo!"

When several agreed-upon signals sounded below the city wall, Cheng Chuliang breathed a sigh of relief.

This time the special operations started relatively smoothly.

Next, it depends on everyone’s performance.

According to the previous agreement, the members of the Flying Tigers quickly found a yard and met inside.

"Based on the hot-air balloon battalion's investigation over the past few days, Goguryeo's city lord's palace is here, and the military camps are here. After tonight, they will definitely find the corpses on the city wall, and they will probably greet us then.

The whole city is being searched and we must not take it lightly."

Cheng Chuliang looked at the familiar faces, and the tension in his heart slowly disappeared.

These are all trustworthy brothers.

"Chu Liang, don't worry, everyone is aware of the current situation. Let's split up immediately, shall we? Finally, we will get some results tonight, so that tomorrow the situation in the city will be more chaotic and more conducive to our lurking. However, in order

To avoid accidental damage, the hot air balloon battalion will only attack enemies on the city wall starting tomorrow, so please remember to stay as far away from the city wall as possible."

Air strikes these days do not have precise guidance.

The hot-air balloon battalion dropped ten kerosene bombs from the sky, and it was estimated that only two or three could hit the city wall.

Others have fallen outside or inside the wall.

So the houses next to the city wall were in bad luck.

Qin Shandao naturally did not want the Flying Tigers to die inexplicably in the hands of his own kerosene bombs.

"Okay! Let's stop talking nonsense and act as planned! If you can, try not to kill ordinary Goguryeo people. These people will be good laborers for the future construction of Liaodong; but if you have to, don't be merciful."
Chapter completed!
