Raid on Yongzhou
The Yongzhou Army was truly defeated.
Over 20,000 people were running around in the darkness like headless flies.
Even Su Yan did not expect that a single round of cannon fire would produce such an effect.
However, thinking about it carefully, this was normal.
The camp of the Tang Dynasty army was built with a circle of walls made of hard wood, and then there were circles of tents inside.
Under such circumstances, as long as the shells were thrown into the camp, there would definitely be results.
A round of bombardment caused at least two thousand casualties in the Tang army.
The entire Yongzhou Army only had 20,000 soldiers.
In an instant, one-tenth of them died!
This was already the limit for an ancient army.
In addition…For the Tang army, the opponent's means of attack were so…It was terrifying.
The roar of gunpowder made the Tang army tremble in this era.
" I won't kill anyone who surrenders!!"
" I won't kill anyone who surrenders!!"
At the periphery, Su Yan ordered the soldiers to shout loudly and light a bonfire to attract the fleeing Tang soldiers. It was very dangerous to run out of the wilderness alone at night, and most of the Tang soldiers knew this.
As a result, many frightened soldiers fled toward the bonfires like moths to a flame.
Then, he was tied up by Su Yan's subordinates like a string of candied haws.
A battle!
Destroy the Yongzhou Prefecture soldiers!
When the sun rose in the sky.
Su Yan had already led his army into the camp of the Yongzhou Prefecture Soldiers.
"Great King! The statistics of the captives were out…In this battle, they had captured 7,000 people!”
Luo Liangce said joyfully.
"Separate the officers from the soldiers and lock them up first. Did you catch Lu Guangyi?"
Su Yan asked.
Luo Liangce shook his head." We let the old fellow escape. I saw him running east last night. He's probably in the mountains now. If the old fellow is lucky enough not to be eaten by the tigers and wolves, it'll probably take him a few days to get out."”
"There are still Tang soldiers fleeing in the dense forest, but they are too scattered.”
Su Yan sat on the main seat.
"In that case, this Yongzhou City is now an empty city?”
Luo Liangce was stunned,"Your Majesty…" What are you doing?
"The autumn harvest has just passed. There must be a lot of grain stored in Yongzhou City…What do you say we attack Yongzhou now and move all the food?”
Luo Liangce thought about it carefully and shook his head." The risk is too great. Yongzhou is 200 miles away from Chang 'an and 250 miles away from Luoyang. We have to empty Yongzhou's granary…It'll probably take a few days!
Su Yan seriously considered it for a moment and said,"I think this is a great opportunity! We'll dress up as Tang soldiers and open the city gate to capture the Ding Zhuang and feed them.。”
"Could this be…" Luo Liangce was stunned for a moment. He deliberated over his words and said,"Will it hurt the heavens?"
"Liangce, we're enemies with Li Shimin now, so…" Su Yan sneered. He had to do everything possible to increase his strength!”
"We're trying to survive!"
Luo Liangce nodded heavily.”
"Good! Pass on my order, the new army will escort the captives back first, and the old army will follow me to attack Yongzhou!”
...
At the same time, on the official road to Chang 'an.
A date red horse was already sweating profusely from running, but the rider on its back still spared no effort and pushed the horse forward.
Finally, the horse's front leg tilted and fell to the ground.
The rider rolled on the ground, and after the force was removed, he got up and immediately ran forward.
He was carrying a bulging object on his back.
His face was the commander of the Chang 'an Hundred Cavalry Division…Liu Jindao!
There was a hint of fear on his face.
"The thief actually has such a terrifying weapon. I have to inform His Majesty as soon as possible!”
Liu Jindao was indeed worthy of being Li Er's confidant. He was loyal.
..
At this moment, Su Yan led a thousand men, one man and two horses, towards Yongzhou City!
At this moment, Yongzhou, who had just woken up from his sleep, did not know…
A disaster was imminent!
