Daming: Mixed in Dangzhi County, Beiping

"Waiting for work?"

Li Jinglong, Mu Sheng and others couldn't help but be surprised.

"Ok!"

Guo An nodded again, full of confidence.

“This time, I just let the general see the ability of our Shenji Battalion to attack cities and seize territory.

This time, let the general see my Shenji Battalion’s ability to defend the city! "

"Defend the city?"

Li Jinglong's face was full of surprise again, "This time, Brother Guo actually wants to defend the city?"

"nature!"

Guo An nodded matter-of-factly, "Two hundred thousand Annan barbarians and ten thousand war elephants. If our Shenji Battalion stands on the city wall and slowly bombs them, it will be very fun!"

It's just a Shenji Battalion of 5,000 people. To take the initiative to fight against 200,000 Annan barbarians, Guo An is not that stupid!

"What Brother Guo said makes sense!"

Li Jinglong nodded slowly, "There are two hundred thousand barbarians. If you have a city but don't hold it, you will be a fool!"

"It just so happens that the mines that have been carried in the Shenji Camp this time can also come in handy!"

"Landmines?"

Li Jinglong, Mu Sheng and others were stunned again.

Immediately, Li Jinglong's eyes lit up, and he had already thought of what Guo An wanted to do!

"We will go with you to lay landmines!"

"No, no!"

Guo An shook his head repeatedly. Although he liked blowing up city walls, he definitely didn't like laying landmines.

Especially, taking Li Jinglong to lay landmines!

"General, the mines this time are too dangerous. They can only be buried by the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion. No one is allowed to approach!"

"Huh? Why is that?"

Li Jinglong couldn't help but ask.

"Because there are too many landmines to be laid this time, and if there are too many people, it will be easy to cause trouble... Oh, general, don't be curious, you will know it in the future!"

"Why should we watch it later?"

"Because you can't let the thieves know about the landmines, we have to clean up the thieves scouts around tomorrow!"

"Leave this matter to the general!"

"Can!"

……

Li Jinglong didn't ask any more questions.

Day two.

Twenty thousand troops came out of the city and directly cleared out the Annan scouts within a five-mile radius of Shenglong City.

Day three.

Another 20,000 troops were dispatched.

Ten thousand were patrolling outside, and ten thousand were watching the people in Shenglong City.

As for the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion, they carried boxes of mines and planted mines one by one in places suitable for camping outside the city.

However, the largest number are within the range of two to six miles outside the city.

These places are the most suitable for the army to attack and set up formations.

Dig a hole and bury the mine, then bury the fuse.

Afterwards, he was very considerate and tidied up the Annan people who were about to arrive.

As soon as the army arrives, they can set up camp immediately!

On the city wall.

Li Jinglong, Mu Sheng and other generals, each armed with a clairvoyant eye, couldn't help but have strange expressions on their faces when they looked at the soldiers of the Shenji Battalion who were busy in the distance.

"With so many landmines, if they were all detonated, not to mention 200,000 Annan people, even 500,000 Annan people would be blown up without any bones left!"

"probably not!"

Guo An slowly shook his head and said with some regret: "This time, the mines we brought out were still a little short.

As long as it can kill 100,000 Annamites in one blow, that's enough! "

Li Jinglong, Mu Sheng and others couldn't help but be stunned again. Guo An was still ruthless!

……

And it was fifty miles away from Thang Long City.

A thick column of smoke and dust kept approaching Thang Long City. Under the smoke and dust was a huge Annan army of 200,000 people.     One day later.

This army successfully appeared under Shenglong City.

And on the wall of Thang Long City.

Li Jinglong, Guo An and others, along with the generals and a group of dignitaries from Sheng Long City who had surrendered earlier, looked at the densely packed army of Hu Ji Yao outside the city.

All the dignitaries of Sheng Long City were filled with nervousness, and some even had their legs trembling.

They knew how cruel Hu Ji-yao was. If Hu Ji-yao was allowed to attack Shenglong City, their whole family would be brutally tortured.

"General, there are so many soldiers and horses from the thieves, do you want me and the people of Shenglong City to help defend the city?"

"Humph!"

Li Jinglong snorted coldly, "With only 200,000 people, our Ming army can certainly defeat them!"

All the dignitaries of Shenglong City nodded repeatedly, but their faces were still full of worry.

Guo An smiled softly and said, "How many troops can you summon?"

"Thirty thousand...no, not soldiers and horses!"

After the dignitary of Shenglong City said something, he reacted instantly and said quickly with a face full of fear: "Report to the general, we still have some slaves in our hands. We can gather these slaves and recruit some young men from the city. We can Help the army defend the city!"

"Thirty thousand!"

Guo An nodded slightly and slowly shook his head under the expectant eyes of the powerful people in Shenglong City.

"We only have an army of 200,000 people. We don't need your help to defend the city at all. However, after the battle is over, we need to restrain the corpses!"

"Contain the body?"

All the dignitaries in Shenglong City couldn't help but be stunned.

Guo An smiled softly and looked at Li Jinglong aside.

"General, Hu Jiya actually dares to form a formation in front of our army. They should show them the power of our Ming Dynasty artillery and mines!"

"Can!"

Li Jinglong nodded slowly.

Guo An looked solemnly and shouted coldly: "Send the order, all artillery fire two rounds at once!

All the landmines in the area where the thief was located were also set ablaze! "

"Follow the order!"

The messenger quickly delivers the order!

soon.

Under the surprised looks on the faces of the dignitaries of Shenglong City, roars suddenly sounded from the city walls.

"Rumble...Rumble..."

Not far outside the city, among Hu Jiyou's army that had just formed its formation, dense fire and smoke appeared, and dense figures flew up, accompanied by screams and wails...

However, these sounds were covered by the deafening explosion.

Simultaneously.

Balls of fire also began to sound from all directions of Hu Ji Ya's army.

The flames soared into the sky and spread towards Hu Ji Yao's central army.

Rumble…

Rumble…

Throughout the entire army, there were flames shooting into the sky!

A scene of destruction!

Countless gravel splashed out by the explosion were flying everywhere.

At this moment, not only tens of thousands of Annan soldiers were blown up, but their entire bodies were torn apart.

Even the Annan man who was still standing on the ground was riddled with holes penetrated by countless gravels and fell directly to the ground.

All Annan people were stunned by the bombing.

They didn't understand how the Ming Dynasty's artillery could be so powerful and shoot so far.

The remaining war elephants in the army went crazy, running around on the ground, trampling to death countless people!

As for Hu Jiya, he seemed to be protected by heaven. All the guards around him were killed, and he was the only one standing there. Only his ear was slightly injured and a few drops of blood flowed out.

In addition, there was a buzzing in the ears and no sound could be heard.

However, looking at the corpses around him, Hu Jiyou's face was full of sadness, "Is this God trying to kill me?"

He had just brought an army of 200,000 men to the foot of Shenglong City with great momentum, and the battle hadn't officially started yet!

Is this over?
