Liu Yidong said to the trumpeter beside him: "Order the reserves in the west to assault the right flank of Goguryeo." ”

Moments later, 500 elite troops quickly entered the battlefield from the starting point of the left flank of Wang's Lin side, and rushed towards the mobile forces of Goguryeo, which were caught off guard and in chaos......

As night fell, the shouting and killing on the battlefield gradually stopped, and Wang Junlin's side first attacked with accurate long-range attacks twice in a row, and then took advantage of the chaos on the Goguryeo side to dispatch an elite reserve to attack the flank, so that the two wings of the Goguryeo soldiers' earthen walls were lost for a while, and the Goguryeo soldiers paid a heavy price to stabilize the battlefield situation, and the Goguryeo soldiers who had gained a foothold built a temporary chest wall with earthen bags to protect the two wings in an arc.

The fire behind the Goguryeo earthen wall was blazing, and more than 2,000 auxiliaries were busy behind the shield car wall, digging trenches and raising the earthen wall.

In the process, the trek-throwing machines and long-range crossbows on the earthen walls and the hillsides on both sides occasionally attacked the exposed Goguryeo soldiers, and every moment there were screams.

In particular, the stone throwers and long-range crossbows on the western slope were fired intermittently, and their range basically covered the range from the western slope to the north of Bailing City.

Since the beginning of the war, each of these stone throwers has fired nearly 200 rounds of stone bullets, and according to verified data, a stone thrower can swing a maximum of about 600 rounds of stone bullets before they are scrapped, even if the parts are replaced.

Most of the soldiers on Wang Junlin's side inside the earthen wall hurried to rest on the spot, the endless stream of Great Sui refugees in the city were transporting supplies, and a small number of wandering sentinels led some hunting dogs to move outside the earthen wall to beware of the night attack of Goguryeo soldiers.

Wang Junlin observed with a telescope for a while, and found that the Goguryeo earthen wall was basically formed, under the cruel persecution, the efficiency of the Goguryeo auxiliary army was very high, the earthen wall was constantly increasing, and their earthen wall was not completely closed, leaving many gaps to facilitate the army's attack.

Yang Kongcian took the telescope in Wang Junlin's hand and looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but say, "My lord, it seems that they want to increase it to be higher than our earthen wall. ”

Wang Junlin said lightly: "But they can't be higher than the slopes on both sides, and they can't be higher than the city walls, so they will never be able to gain the advantage of geographical advantages." ”

Luo Chunlai also nodded and said: "All the high points inside and outside the city are in our hands, and the threat of the west and east slopes is always there, no matter how they build the earthen wall, they can't block the stone throwing and long-range crossbows on the west and east slopes, and the soldiers stationed on the earthen wall are all under the threat all the time." ”

Luo Shixin also said: "If I were to command in the city, I would not have to ask for an emphasis on the western slopes, as long as I kept the continuous blows, so that the Goguryeo people would always be highly nervous, and their physical strength and energy would be consumed." ”

Wang Junlin glanced at Luo Shixin appreciatively, and said to Zhang Tiangang: "Send what Xin'er just said to Liu Yidong in the city, and let him implement it as appropriate." ”

Luo Shixin immediately looked happy, and provocatively glanced at Li Xuanba next to him, the last time the two teenagers each led troops to attack a pirate island, the number of Li Xuanba's prisoners was a little more, and he successfully got a beautiful palace maid from Silla Kingdom rewarded by Wang Junlin, Luo Shixin was envious and jealous, and the two of them secretly competed even more.

Without waiting for Zhang Tiangang to send a letter to Liu Yidong, a request from the latter was sent through the sea eagle.

"It's Liu Yidong's request for instructions on night arrangements." Yang Kongcian looked at it first and said.

Wang Junlin didn't take it, but asked, "What is Liu Yidong going to do at night?"

Yang Kongcian said: "General Liu is preparing to organize an elite assault on the middle of Goguryeo at night. ”

"Did he say how to cover, or how to play?"

"My lord, General Liu is preparing to attack at the end of noon, attacking with stone throwers and long-range crossbows on the whole line, and feints to contain Goguryeo, he selects five hundred elites, with five hundred oil canisters and five hundred porcelain grenades, ready to fight and leave quickly, and arranges five hundred consecutive quick crossbows to be responsible for responding."

The five hundred oil canisters mentioned here are newly invented weapons by Wang Junlin's side, but they are not from Nie Xiaoyu and Wang Junlin, but invented by a craftsman from the arsenal, and Wang Junlin directly ordered a reward of 1,000 taels of silver and promoted to stewardship.

The porcelain grenade is a semi-finished product in the case that the grenade invented by Nie Xiaoyu has not been mass-produced, but it can also bring a lot of damage, and the cost is very low, and the last batch of ships also brought some, if it is used tonight, it is the first time to use it on a large scale on the battlefield.

"Tell Liu Yidong that if the raid is good, expand the range of the attack, be sure to hit the middle of the Goguryeo people, especially strive to burn their shield carts in a large area, and by the way, use our porcelain grenades to discourage the enemy, rob them of their momentum, and thus blow their morale."

……

……

Generally speaking, Wang Junlin felt that today's results satisfied him, Goguryeo probably paid the price of more than 700 auxiliaries and more than 300 elites, with Goguryeo's medical ability on this island, those wounded could not be saved, and they would naturally become a burden to the Goguryeo people, and these people were alive, screaming and complaining in the rear, which would greatly affect the morale of the Goguryeo side.

Ninety-one casualties were on Wang Junlin's side, and only more than fifty were killed, and the exchange ratio reached ten to one, while the ratio of the two sides' forces on the island was five to one, so Yuan Gai Suwen could not hold out for long.

According to Wang Junlin's guess, after the Goguryeo soldiers formed the earthen wall, there will be a period of confrontation, and the focus of the battle will be changed to a trench tug-of-war, but even if the Goguryeo people can go to the sea to fish, they can find some food on the island, plus Yuangai Suwen deliberately ignores the consumption of auxiliaries, just to let the food last for a few more days, but even so, how long can their food last?

Moreover, according to Wang Junlin's plan, the two thousand sailors who belonged to Luo Chunlai who were floating on the sea would also land at night to carry out a sneak attack, which might not achieve much success, but it would contain a lot of Goguryeo's troops and energy, and over time, it would make Yuangai Suwen overstretched.

……

……

After the hour, the Goguryeo front still did not stop, and the auxiliaries were still busy, and torches flew out of the earthen wall from time to time, falling far away in the pit area, observing whether there was a night attack on the side of Wang Junlin. The front line was silent, with the occasional piercing sound of a long-range crossbow piercing the air accompanied by the screams of Goguryeo soldiers.
