The First Family of Tang Dynasty - Chapter 2984 The collective grievances of the important officials of the Tang Dynasty...

The number of artillery pieces is still the same as the previous forty pieces, but there are four more flying thunder cannons on the side.

Although there are only four guns, the amount of gunpowder they consume once fired is no match for forty artillery pieces.

The important thing is the power of that thing. I had tried a salvo in front of a Goguryeo city before.

The momentum can be described as a shattering of the sky, and after the salvo, a large number of Goguryeo soldiers were found without any wounds on their bodies, but were frightened to death.

Of course, they may have been killed by the shock wave, but the soldiers who went to check on the deceased were not doctors. Naturally, they could only regard those enemies who had no trauma but died of fear as being scared to death.

It is precisely because the explosive power of this flying thunder cannon is too huge, so the distance between each flying thunder cannon is more than 12 feet.

This is to ensure that when there is a malfunction of a flying thunder gun or an accident, it will not affect comrades in arms.

Therefore, the forty artillery pieces, plus the artillery position formed by the four flying thunder cannons, formed a blank area that occupied more than a mile radius.

Only the soldiers of the artillery battalion are allowed to move there, and it is strictly forbidden for anyone to enter without authorization.

At this moment, the soldiers of the artillery battalion are busy, carrying barrels of gunpowder to their respective gun positions.

There are also some soldiers who are cleaning the artillery, and their expressions are quite relaxed, and at the same time, one or two expressions are very arrogant.

After all, compared to the other arms of the Tang Dynasty, they were the navy soldiers who originally belonged to the Dengzhou navy.

Never thought that one day, they would become an important force and hero for the Tang Dynasty to conquer Goguryeo.

As for Xue Rengui, who is now standing not far behind Li Shimin, he is still responsible for leading the musket battalion to protect the safety of the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, this musket cavalry battalion has already become famous after experiencing the First World War in an unknown town.

With a mere 500, Shengsheng relied on the blood-sucking mosquito tactic of tossing an army of nearly 100,000 people for days and nights.

Whether it is in the Tang army or in Goguryeo, it has become notorious.

And he, a future famous general of the Tang Dynasty who likes to wear a white robe, also won a chaotic number that is impermanent in white clothes.

#####

Thinking of this name, Li Shimin couldn't help raising the corners of his mouth. Having said that, Cheng Sanlang is still very discerning.

But no one of the talents he recommended or he took a fancy to was crooked.

At this moment, Li Shimin heard a very resentful dripping sound coming from his side.

"Your Majesty, will it still be the old rules for a while?"

As soon as Li Shimin turned his head, he saw Xue Wanche's expression and eyes as if he was a resentful woman.

Not only him, but also the look of the Great Tang military commander standing in the rear is generally the same.

Rao is Li Shimin, the emperor of the Tang Dynasty is used to seeing strong winds and waves, but seeing the expression of a vote of rough gentlemen, it is still a season in my heart.

"Everyone, but what do you think is wrong with what I'm doing?"

After Yu Chi Gong, the honored minister, bowed to His Majesty, he raised his hand and pointed to Ya Lushui in the distance.

"Your Majesty, I don't think there is any problem, but the main force of the Goguryeo army has already retreated."

"Now if you can take this Baifenkou City, it will be equivalent to cutting off the connection between Goguryeo and the land of Liaodong."

"The ministers and others are still here to discuss, if you can take Baifenkou City, please also ask Your Majesty to enshrine the ministers and other leaders to settle the west of the duck and green water, and take the entire territory of Liaodong as soon as possible..."

Seeing that the gang of sub-wuxun and important ministers responded in succession, Li Shimin couldn't help rubbing his eyebrows in pain.

It's not clear where it is, but it's clear that it's this group of sub-wuxun important officials, who are already so idle that their guts are about to grow hair.

After all, the fact that Gao Huizhen was killed before the fight was regarded as a major battle, and all the siege battles after that.

It almost became a performance of artillery, and all the armies of the Tang Dynasty seemed to have become the melon-eating masses.

All of them looked at the gang of artillerymen at ease, two miles away from the opponent's city, slowly, talking and laughing, finished loading their shells there, and then opened fire on the enemy city.

Generally speaking, after tossing back and forth for a few rounds, the enemy army will either disarm or surrender or flee.

It can be said that in such a battle, all the great Tang Wuxun generals can't wait to scream in the sky, what is the use of Lao Tzu for this big stick?

Uh... The big stick refers to the weapon, everyone who understands it, and the one who doesn't understand it should be a beautiful lady.

Pressing the gossip is not an expression, and said that the emperor of the Tang Dynasty saw the expressions of the gang of sub-wuxun and important ministers, which seemed to be very depressed and resentful because they had not been able to get the chance to vent for a long time.

Li Shimin could only have words to explain.

"Aiqings, since I have such a powerful weapon for breaking the city, I will break the fortified city of Goguryeo in the Tang Dynasty.

"But there is a problem. My Tang Dynasty has destroyed many cities, but now, in order to appease the people in so many cities, I have also dispatched a large number of troops and horses."

"I am also very aware of the feelings of the Qing family who want to make contributions to the country, but please wait for a while."

"After careful consideration, I have decided to send another 20,000 horses north to Liaodong..."

As the emperor of the Tang Dynasty presented the facts and reasoned, he finally appeased the important military commanders of the Tang Dynasty. Seeing that they began to prepare for the destruction of Baifenkou City, Li Shimin was also relieved.

I have to say, this is really a happy trouble. When Li Shimin decided to go to Koguryeo in person, he was a little undecided.

After all, the lessons from the previous dynasties are in front of you. If the Tang Dynasty also caused a big problem because of Goguryeo, it would be too much to lose.

However, it is imperative to conquer Goguryeo, so Li Shimin, who was quite indecisive in his heart, finally decided to use a small number of elite soldiers and recruitment as the main force.

Coupled with the soldiers and horses of Yingzhou in Datang, UU reading www.uukanshu.com then used money and food to drive those Hu soldiers to fight for the Tang Dynasty.

The total strength is called an army of 200,000, but in fact, the elites of the Tang Dynasty are only 60,000. That's how the rest of the Hu soldiers fought.

Why? It is because the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, who was indecisive, decided to give it a try. If he can get a few cities or something, then continue.

If the war is setback, then calmly withdrawing, it is not a big problem, and it will not be like the previous dynasty, where millions of teachers return to the Sui, there are not one out of ten.

However, no one would have thought that since the Tang Dynasty had more Cheng Sanlang, everything would be different.

In the past, the ferocity of siege battles could hardly be described in words, and a city was often attacked.

It takes a lot of time to build siege equipment, and there is a fierce hand-to-hand battle for the city wall that is fought day and night.

But as Cheng Sablang picked up gunpowder weapons such as artillery, flying thunder cannons, and grenades, he threw them into the Tang army.

Siege warfare has instead become one of the easiest and almost non-destructive methods of warfare.
