Representing the supreme imperial power, the jade chaplain of the prison state, dragged by eight tall pure white horses, quietly stopped under the banner of the Chinese army of Li Jiajun.

Inside the chariot sat Chai Xirang and Concubine Du, and outside the chariot were layers of guards, as well as guards with knives.

Chai Xirang, the king of Cao, who is not very sensible, snuggled in the arms of Concubine Du, and he played with the monocular given by Li Zhongyi with great interest, but he didn't know that the world outside the world had undergone earth-shaking and amazing changes.

Concubine Du's mind was completely on her son's body, she put down the monoculars that had been held up for a long time, lightly opened her cherry lips, and let out a long breath of turbidity.

Even if Concubine Du is a female streamer who doesn't understand military affairs at all, she also knows very well in her heart that the tall and majestic Bozhou City was broken by the Li family army in about an hour.

Concubine Du's official husband, the first emperor Chai Rong, is already very powerful. But she didn't think that Lao Li, who stole her body, was much more powerful than her deceased husband.

"Let my brother, listen well, don't be rude to your father-in-law, understand?" Concubine Du sighed, hugged Chai Xirang into her arms, and admonished her son with an unusually solemn face.

"Mother, how dare a child be rude to his father-in-law? Don't you always teach your children to respect their fathers more than they respect their fathers? Chai Xi's milky answer made Concubine Du feel both relieved and sad.

Up to now, Concubine Du no longer regrets that she took the initiative to commit to the ugly deeds of Lao Li next door. Who told them to live under the eaves of the house, and their lives hung in the balance of Lao Li's thoughts next door?

Just now, Concubine Du saw with her own eyes that the red sea composed of the soldiers of the Li family army entered the city of Bozhou with the power of a tiger descending the mountain.

After giving the order for a general attack, Li Zhongyi wanted to go to the front to see the excitement, but Chu Xiong, who was quick-eyed, grabbed the reins of the horse first.

"Master, you are now an incomparably noble honor, how can you take risks easily? Besides, so many robes follow you to work hard, isn't the picture just to live a good life? Chu Xiong's big vernacular immediately amused Li Zhongyi.

Li Zhongyi squinted at Chu Xiong, curled the corners of his mouth, and teased: "What you say is hard to hear, but it is a rare truth. I will listen to you, and I will not go forward. ”

Chu Xiong grinned and showed a sincere smile, and whispered a little shyly: "The subordinate is a country boy who can't speak, if it annoys you, he will whip the subordinate a few times." ”

"Haha, you melon baby, you can say witty things, when did Lao Tzu vent his personal anger?" Li Zhongyi burst out laughing, Chu Xiong's purpose of deliberately pretending to be humble was to return to the army, could he not know?

Like Yang Xiaoyi, Chu Xiong is also a good material for fighting, but Chu Xiong's temperament is more jumpy, not as calm as Yang Xiaoyi.

Therefore, Li Zhongyi consciously detained Chu Xiong by his side and sharpened his temperament so that he could be of great use in the future.

At first, Chu Xiong was completely unable to adapt to the mundane personal guard work. After he was completely dead and knew that he could not go to the front line to kill the enemy for the time being, his original impatient temperament slowly changed.

"Li Yongtang's speed is too slow, you go and tell him that the 12-pounder cannon can be slowly packed up, and the 6-pounder cavalry gun must immediately withdraw from the position and follow him to the city." Li Zhongyi saw that Chu Xiong was extremely bored and lazy, so he casually found an excuse and sent him away.

Li Zhongyi personally trained the army, and he is naturally familiar with all kinds of characteristics, which can be described as a treasure.

If it is a field positional wave battle, there are bronze artillery shotguns or bullets in the chain, back shells to shoot cocktails, and fire support from the crossbow, Li Zhongyi is not worried about the problem of excessive losses of the troops.

However, in Bozhou City, after all, there are 50,000 elite forbidden troops and more than 30,000 villagers.

Expecting the enemy to be lenient has always been the basic criterion for Li Zhongyi to lead his troops into battle. This is the same as in every campaign, the nature of the general reserve must be mastered, and one hand, or even a few hands, must be left in order to deal with all kinds of unexpected situations.

In the Battle of Waterloo, after the emperor scattered the last general reserves, it was equivalent to staking his life in full. As a result, the main force of the Prussian army suddenly appeared, and the emperor could only watch helplessly as his old subordinates were defeated, and then fled back to Paris with his tail between his legs.

When Chu Xiong caught up with the artillery camp, the gate of Bozhou had already been flooded into the city, and it was blocked.

Li Yongtang, the commander of the artillery battalion who was blocked outside the city, was so angry that he almost vomited blood.

The lord explained very clearly that Bozhou was an important place for the imperial court to hoard grain, and as long as the more than one million stone of grain in this place was swallowed in one gulp, it would be impossible for the entire Li Jiajun and even the Pinglu area to have a shortage of grain within a year.

Before the war, Li Zhongyi specially arranged for the attack on Liu Heyang and served as the governor of the siege city, comprehensively commanding the operations on the front line, and taking into account the coordination of the actions between the various armies.

Who would have thought that Liu Heyang, who had already commanded the army to attack Bozhou, had already rushed to the front line to command because the attack in front was blocked, and he had long since disappeared.

The soldiers and horses blocking the gate of the city were more than one army, and the leaders of the troops were all generals above the command level. Li Yongtang just couldn't make sense with them, he couldn't quarrel and quarrel, so he could only be in a hurry.

Although Li Zhongyi has always emphasized the coordination of infantry and artillery, how easy is it to achieve coordination between infantry and artillery?

Speaking of which, the main problem is that the infantry army and the artillery are not subordinate to each other, and the small hill doctrine of profit distribution is at work.

Just now, the infantry soldiers stood on their respective starting positions, watching the artillery shake their majesty, and the city gate of Bozhou was so easily blasted open.

If the artillery is successfully put into the city, the brothers of the infantry army will not even have to drink soup, let alone eat meat!

In the Li family's army, the awarding of military merits and knighthoods is an iron law that is a sure thing. Without military merits, even if he is the king of heaven, he will not be able to be promoted and promoted.

Before launching a general attack, Li Zhongyi personally promised to capture those who believed in Fu alive and reward thousands of households.

This is like a bombshell suddenly dropped on the calm and waveless water, and the entire Li Jiajun is boiling, all of them are as if they have been beaten with chicken blood, and their fighting spirit is unusually high.

In the Li family's army, even Yang Lie, one of Li Zhongyi's personal disciples, has no title so far.

Objectively speaking, the imperial court had also rewarded the generals of the Li Jiajun in the past, and the duke and marquis seemed to want money, and they were big Satsas.

It's just that in the group of Li Jiajun, from the commander of the military capital to the ordinary auxiliary soldiers, everyone eats the food of the lord, the reward of the lord, and the salary of the lord.

How old is the imperial court? Allah Besho!

In the eyes of everyone, those titles sown by the imperial court are not worth at all and have no gold content.

Li Zhongyi's handwritten knighthood, that is the golden rice bowl and the real title, I can't even recognize this, so I still mess up with Li Jiajun?

Of course, if Li Zhongyi had set the military rank system early, Li Yongtang, who enjoyed the treatment of the deputy commander, would have been able to confidently order the brothers of the infantry army to dodge the passage.

War, in fact, is a very complex science of killing, which has both laws to follow and great accidents.

It's like a football match with 11 players, the more players on the pitch, the more chance of winning or losing.

In war, there are always some regrets that cannot be as good as they should be, so it is particularly important to sum up the lessons learned and correct the various flaws in the regulations in a timely manner.

Chu Xiong arrived in time, and as soon as Li Yongtang saw him, he was like a hungry wolf, and suddenly saw a large amount of fresh meat, and pounced on him like a gust of wind.

Today's Chu Xiong, although he is nesting next to Li Zhongyi, has no chance to make military merits for the time being. However, back then, he was the commander of the all-army famous throat rebuke battalion, and his eyesight was extraordinary.

Ahem, it was really fed by the master!

Chu Xiong sighed secretly, Li Zhongyi was worried that his subordinates would miss a major event because of the merit, so he handed over the token and special password that represented the supreme authority to him.

Without waiting for Li Yongtang to complain endlessly, Chu Xiong, who was riding on horseback, had already raised the token in his hand and shouted: "The Lord token is here, all of them have it, stand upright!" ”

In the army, as long as it is an officer above the battalion commander, if anyone does not know Chu Xiong, he can only prove one thing: he has been marginalized.

"Smack!" All the people who were blocking the city gate straightened their waists, put their legs together, and saluted the token in Chu Xiong's hand.

Chu Xiong is the most personal guard with a knife in the Lord, and he holds the supreme token in his hand, enjoying the absolute authority of "I am here in person"!

"According to the instructions of the Lord, all matters related to the coordinated operation of infantry and artillery are under the command of this general. Anyone who does not obey my orders, no matter how high his current official position is or how great his previous merits are, will be handed over to the Judge Advocate Advocate General's Department for severe punishment. ”

After the military judges, battalion commanders, and battalion commanders verified the authenticity of the token and checked the password, Chu Xiong picked up the chicken feathers and gave the order decisively.

"Whoa!" With Chu Xiong's order, the city gate, which was originally blocked, became a thoroughfare in the blink of an eye.

Li Yongtang wiped the hot sweat on his forehead, and didn't bother to greet Chu Xiong, he shouted at his subordinates repeatedly, urging the pack horses to drag the cavalry artillery cart into the city.

Soon after entering the city, Chu Xiong was surprised to find that the offensive of the soldiers in front of him had obviously been frustrated, and the two armies were engaged in a fierce battle.

When Chu Xiong approached and took a closer look, he saw clearly that the barricade fortifications arranged by Fu Zhaoxin in advance happened to block the main passage for the army to advance.

Li Zhongyi emphasized many times before the war that the use of cocktails was strictly forbidden in street battles in the city, so as not to ignite the millions of stone grain and baggage hoarded in the city.

Fu Zhaoxin is indeed a well-known general, the barricades he arranged are high and thick, and the shooting holes of the bow and crossbow are as many as cow hairs, and it is an urn city.

There were constantly wounded soldiers who were hit by arrows or robes who died in battle who were carried down on stretchers, Chu Xiong couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, he didn't come too late!

As expected, a large-scale street battle in the city is likely to cause far more casualties than a field battle.

"Pass the military order of the master, the forward temporarily stop the attack, get out of the way of the main road, and let the artillery battalion pass." Chu Xiong unequivocally assumed the duties of the commander-in-chief of the siege, since Liu Heyang did not attach importance to the cooperation of artillery, it was up to him Chu Xiong's ability.

PS: I'm working overtime today, it's late, I'm sorry, I'm asking for a monthly pass, after eating supper, there must be a shift in the early morning!
