Chapter 537

Cheng Chu silently wiped a handful of dust from his face, and the smell of gunpowder smoke filled the air. On the shore in the distance, countless sail shadows are moving. Every sailboat was carrying people and supplies to the coast, his grandmother's. What are the scout ships sent out for, and are these ships all falling from the sky?

Damn typhoon season, it doesn't take off the airship. Otherwise, a radius of 500 miles is under his control. There is no reason why such a large fleet did not find out on its own.

The damn cannibal has gunpowder, and he's got fucking oil. It was a wall of fire in front of the city, which made its cavalry immobilized. The twenty or thirty war elephants that have been trained will not be able to exert their might. Animals are instinctively afraid of fire, and burning things always make them terrified.

"Lao Tzu will let you burn it, but I want to see how long you can block Lao Tzu here." Cheng Chumo said viciously.

"It won't take long for them, we just need us not to disturb them to land. You see, they have defeated the natives. is setting up his own camp, and the general leading the team must be a veteran. In the face of a fortified city like the Strait Castle, the way to victory is to fight steadily and steadily. Ling Jing looked at the natives in the distance, whose corpses were strewn all over the field.

When the Persian army had just washed ashore, it was they who bore the brunt of it. The rebellious spirit of the local people is still commendable, and they identify with the Tang people very much. The Tang people here gave them land to plant, and gave them the right to bully the wild people in the jungle. As long as they pay some taxes every year and bear some work that the Tang people are not willing to do, they can live a good life.

No one raped their wives and daughters, and no one robbed them of their property. Everything is so harmonious, but there are many people who want to marry their beautiful daughters to the Tang people.

The Persians, like a flood, came, the day after the typhoon stopped. Except for the huge warships of the Tang people, no one could survive the typhoon. The Persian ships were far less large than the Dons, and no one knew exactly how they got there. The search distance of the airship is five hundred miles, and no ship can sail five hundred miles overnight. This is also the reason why the raid of the Persian army caused such heavy losses to the Strait Castle.

"They must be driving along the coast of Tianzhu, and the typhoon blowing across the mainland will reduce the power a lot. If they had driven along the Tianzhu coast, they had set off at least half a year ago. Calculated that the typhoon will pass through at this time of year, our airships will not be able to detect their whereabouts. The opposing general is a shrewd man, and this battle is not easy to fight. "Ling Jing is now a fox with fur, and he can deduce the intentions of the Persian army just by looking at the situation of a few hours after the war began.

"Humph! I want to eat Lao Tzu, and I'm not afraid of breaking his teeth. Cheng Chu said unconvinced. In fact, his army was very small, only 3,500 men. The rest were native soldiers, who fought very bravely with swords in hand. But when you hear the sound of an explosion, you panic like a rabbit.

The natives on the coast were like that, when the first Persians landed. They put up a desperate resistance, but when the grenade exploded, the natives began to disperse.

The kind of thing that will explode, the Tang people also have it. The natives felt that it was a weapon given by the gods. People can't fight with God, and those who hold weapons given by the gods are opponents. In front of them, they are not even a fart.

The natives gave up resistance, and the Tang people were blocked by the flames inside the castle and could not get out.

The Persians began to land with a swagger, and the black-pressed crowd was as dense as a crab at a low tide. These men calmly built camps, and trebuchets constantly threw wood and oil into the fire in front of the city walls.

Cheng Chumo could only watch all this depressedly, they couldn't do anything. The airship seemed to be able to do something, but unfortunately a huge hot air balloon rose over the heads of the Persians. This made Cheng Chumo very surprised, and he didn't believe it when he was killed, the hot air balloon was not loaded with a crossbow. In fact, in the sky, there is not much difference between a hot air balloon that does not move and a slow-moving airship.

The only result of the two shots at each other was to die together, and in terms of losses, of course, the Tang people were relatively large. Even Cheng Chumo felt that as long as the Persian balloon was shot. They pick it up and make up for it, and they can continue to use it.

But if the airship flies out now, it will definitely be shot down in enemy-occupied territory and cannot be recovered.

Now the Tang army's own airship can only stay on its head and hover, otherwise it is too close to the camp of the Persians.

All the advantages were gone, of course, if Ling Jing didn't use that new weapon.

"The Persians are fighting hard this time! Look at this, there are at least sixty or seventy thousand people! "They are all people who have worked the battlefield for many years, and if you look at the scale, Ling Jing knows that the number of enemy troops far exceeds that of the Tang army. As for the servant army, they are no longer needed. These guys only dare to hold their heads and shrink up and pretend to be quails.

"Is the emperor of Persia insane? They think that as long as there is gunpowder and oil, and hot air balloons, they can defeat us? Don't they know the Datang, don't they know that Datang has an invincible sailor? Cheng Chumo was surprised that the Persian emperor would make such a decision, and fighting the Tang army in such a coastal place would be very disadvantageous to them. If, after a month, they have not been able to capture the Strait Castle.

The Datang will arrive with the Datang Sailors, and at that time their supply lines will be cut off. Tens of thousands of people can't live for a few days without supplies, and Cheng Chumo, who has led troops for many years, understands this very well. At least, he wouldn't be stupid enough to fight such a desperate battle with his soldiers. However, he still admired the courage of the Persian emperor, and the feats and riches of the Shomen were watered by the blood of the enemy.

Now that the great credit is in front of him, the marquis who has won this battle should be sure of it.

"They don't have an emperor, and the supreme ruler is called the caliph. In the past, Persia was now called the Great Food, and the black-clothed Great Food in the official words of the court was talking about them. This is a **** country, and their country worships the Green Religion very much. The preaching of the Green Cult is also evil, and a man named Muhammad walks in the fertile land.

The Quran in one hand and the sword in the other. Whoever believes in me is a brother, and whoever does not believe in me is killed. The secret ingredient of gunpowder was that their fine work was stolen from the Tang Dynasty General Prison and Academy. Now it seems that they have stolen a lot of things in Datang. Even the hot air balloon was stolen, but alas! They can't build a steam engine yet, otherwise, we'll have to face the blow of the airship. ”

Ling Jing looked at the airship in the distance, the burning oil. There were also craters left by the explosion, and he shook his head helplessly. Secrecy is already being done seriously, but it's a pity that people's hearts can't resist the temptation of money after all. There are always guys who eat inside and out, and exchange the lifeblood of the country for personal enjoyment. I don't want to think about it, joining Datang is everywhere, who still has a stable life?

"What are the hundred horsemen for, those damn bastards should be in the oil pot if they catch them." Cheng Chumo smashed a punch at the city wall!

The corpses on the beach were not only natives, but also more than a hundred of his subordinates. This was the first group to go out of the city to meet the battle, and the whole army was annihilated by the superior Persian army.

"A lot of people were arrested and a lot of people were killed. Some people also used Ling Chi. You know, in Datang, unless there is such a big crime as rebellion, Ling Chi will not be used.

But even so, some people still take risks. The role of money is too great, and some people are influenced by the Green Religion. Of course, there are others who are just fucking crumbs. They have a strong dissatisfaction with Datang, and Datang's national strength is growing day by day. But they just look at the current court dissatisfied, as long as it is the government that does not do the right thing.

As long as the policy of the imperial court goes wrong, they will attack the imperial court in a frenzy. Especially those tabloids, in order to sell newspapers, they simply do everything to sell them. The gossip is flying all over the sky, and today's greedy ink will be ridiculous tomorrow. The officials are all wine bags and rice bags, and they only know that they have two wives to raise prostitutes.

It is a big country, and Kyushu is ten thousand directions. How big my China is, the Son of Heaven hunts the world. There are so many officials in need that they all use people with high morals? Where in the world are there so many people with high morals, and besides, people with high morals are good people who govern the country?

I really don't know what these people think, twenty years ago, Datang was still struggling on the edge of hunger. In the year of the catastrophe, there were things that happened when the child was changed and eaten. But now, there was a severe drought in Shandong and Hebei last year. The state opened the granary and did not want to help the victims with a penny. If you change it to twenty years ago, I don't know how many people will die.

There are also some shameless people, seeing the increasing prosperity of Datang, they say that the times are always developing. The efforts of the Tang Dynasty and the people are described as natural development. No matter who is in power, they can also govern Datang well.

In their eyes, they could not see those loyal and brave soldiers. I can't see those hard-working officials, and I can't see the hard work of the people of Datang. They think that being an emperor is only about eating, drinking, and having fun!

As long as it is Datang that does something, it is wrong, because the system is not good. As long as it's something foreigner does, it's all right. Because the system is good, people pay attention to cooking, and pay attention to people!

Bullshit! Between nations, there is no fairness, justice, axioms, or morality. As for the whole of people, it is even more deceitful!

In this world, there are only interests between countries. Only eternal interests are the focus of contention. Profit is not about money, but about everything. As long as it's something you want with all your heart, and it's in someone else's hands. There is a game, there is an exchange, this is politics! Politics is to use the smartest way to do the most shameless things, and then you can also set up a chastity archway. ”

"Far from it, I'm a soldier. Politics is not Lao Tzu's business, and what Lao Tzu thinks about most now is how to throw tens of thousands of miscellaneous pieces on the other side into the sea. It's been a long time since crocodiles and sharks had fresh human flesh to make the empire expand. Striving for the supreme glory of my ancestors and avenging the brothers who died in battle is what I, a general, want to do. Cheng Chumo looked at the old angry young man next to him.

Ling Jing's situation was very wrong, he was impassioned like a mad dog, and his hands were waving like cramps.

You don't need to be so excited, in case you get excited and have a cerebral congestion and heart disease or something, then how can it be done!

"Hey......! It's far away, and when he thinks of those people who eat inside and out, the old man gets angry. It's not because they have different political views, it's because they betrayed their ancestors. Political views are different, as long as everyone is working hard for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, there is nothing wrong with different political views. Because of the same goal, everyone is for the good of Datang.

But those people are different, they make it their duty to persecute and despise their fellow citizens. You look at the weapons of the Persians on the other side, and their machinery. It's all the work of those bastards! If the old man doesn't die this time, when he returns to Datang, he must ask the Baiqi Division, why don't you put these people in the oil pot. ”

"You're saying we're going to have a tough time this time. This Strait Castle was built by you and the boy overseer, and a lot of cement was used here. The walls were not made of masonry, but of large strips of stone. There are no jungle natives in the vicinity for nearly a thousand miles. It's all about building this strait castle to death, why don't you think the sharks in the strait and the swarms of crocodiles on the shore don't go.

Will such a city be breached by them? I don't believe it! Cheng Chumo looked at Ling Jing like an idiot, thinking that his professional honor had been insulted. If this wasn't Ling Jing, someone else would have slashed his head a long time ago, and he would have been charged with confusing the army's heart afterwards.

"Huh! No matter how strong a stone is, it will be blown apart by gunpowder. No matter how strong the gates are, they will eventually be destroyed by the fire oil. Just like now, your iron cavalry is stuck in the city and can't get out. A wall of fire becomes an insurmountable obstacle.

If there are no things left by Grandpa Guo, I'm afraid that this time you Lu Guogong will have to send white-haired people to black-haired people. ”

"Then why don't you hurry up and use those things and let the Persians set up camp here?" Cheng Chu was so angry that he was about to draw his knife, those things were the property of the academy, and they were all controlled by Ling Jing. Your own orders are not enough to use those things.

"Hah! You know the secret weapon, the reason why it's called the secret weapon. That's because these things are used at the most critical moments!

What happened to the Persians who set up camp? Isn't that great? Let them move everything down the ship, and then build a strong barracks. You can't do it in three or five days!

We are dragging it now, and it is a day when we can drag it out. Time is in our favor, and the airship that reported the news has flown to Yazhou. As long as the fleet knows the news, it will definitely come as soon as possible.

Tell me, with those Persian sailboats, will they be the opponents of the Datang? When the time came, these Persians had fortified cities in front of them and the sea behind them. The seas are still full of our fleet! Do you think they have any other way than to starve to death or surrender? Young people, just grow muscles but not brains. Lu Guogong I is famous, how did you raise such a rammer. ”

"Look at what you said, how can I be as bad as you!" Cheng Chu was silently reprimanded, but he was not angry. But it's a bit of a pity, it looks like the battlefield is a good place to play around. I really want to do it, why is it so difficult.

PS: Today's writing is a bit messy, and it's also to vent the anger in my heart. When I was having lunch today, I met a person who was not good at mentioning China and everything was good when he mentioned abroad.

I really hate this kind of person, and what he says is extremely selfish. It is definitely the kind of person who will call him a flood after I die, and his being an official is a disaster for the people, and the harm is far greater than that of those corrupt officials.

Finally, shamelessly ask for some recommendation votes for "The Tiger of Liaodong". Thank you! Thank you all for your support!
