Anshi City is probably located in the location of the urban area of Anshan City, Liaoning Province in the later generations, because it is close to the sea, the terrain belongs to the southeast high and the northwest is low, from the southeast to the northwest slope, it is worth mentioning that the southeast of Anshi City belongs to the extension of the Qianshan Mountain Range, there are many hills and hills, close to the southeast corner of the direction position, there is a small hill, and very close to the city wall.

Yang Wanchun, as the lord of Anshi City, knows all the terrain inside and outside Anshi City, and when he was okay before, he likes to deduce on the map, imagining what kind of strategy he should adopt if he wants to attack Anshi City, and the corner of Anshi City can be said to be one of the biggest flaws in Anshi City because of the terrain, so when he heard that Tang Jun went to the southeast corner of the city twice to check, he immediately guessed what the other party was going to do.

At that moment, Yang Wanchun could no longer observe the Tang army's camp, strode down the city wall and returned to his mansion, and then gathered some of the main officials and generals in the city, and then began to arrange and strengthen the defense of the southeast corner of Anshi City, he was almost certain that the next attack of the Tang army would definitely start from the direction of the southeast corner.

I have to say that Yang Wanchun's judgment was very correct, just as he had just strengthened the defense of the southeast corner, the next day the Tang army sent troops again, and the 20,000 troops went straight to the southeast corner of Anshi City, and the entire Anshi City was also very nervous for a while.

"Up!" With Li Daozong's order, his soldiers immediately rushed forward desperately, but the Tang army's actions were very strange, because they were not for the siege of the city, and they didn't even bring siege equipment, but each of them carried sandbags one by one, and when they rushed to the vicinity of Anshi City, they directly dropped the sandbags, and then turned around and ran, and there were countless replacement soldiers behind them.

"Sure enough!" At the head of the city of Anshi, Yang Wanchun couldn't help but beat the city wall anxiously when he saw the Tang army's actions, and then ordered someone to release arrows to stop the Tang army from approaching, because the Tang army's move was obviously to pile up a dirt mountain, and then you could go directly to the city through the earth mountain, especially the most terrible cavalry of the Tang army, if they were allowed to ride horses and rush to the city, even if they tried their best to stop the Tang army's troops.

The Goguryeo people at the head of the city did not react at first, until they received the order to release arrows, and then ten thousand arrows were fired, but the Tang army was already prepared, and the soldiers who transported the sandbags were not only wearing iron armor, but also able to put the sandbags on their heads, and the arrows were difficult to hurt them, and the effect was naturally very limited.

"Father! This doesn't work, although our arrows are relatively sufficient, but it is impossible to shoot all the time, and the effect is very limited, if it goes on like this, I'm afraid we won't have any arrows to use before the dirt and mountains are piled up! At this moment, Yang Pet ran to Yang Wanchun's side and whispered. A few rounds of arrows had been shot just now, but the Tang army had almost no casualties, but consumed a large number of their arrows, so Yang Pet would run to ask his father for instructions.

"The arrows must not be stopped, and in addition, pull the trebuchet over, no matter what, we must stop the Tang army from piling up the dirt mountain!" Yang Wanchun gritted his teeth at this time and said, this position in the southeast corner, the terrain outside the city is already high, and there is another hill, which makes it easier for the Tang army to pile up a dirt mountain, and now the reason why they can block the Tang army is to rely on the advantage of the city wall, if there is a soil mountain, then they will no longer have any advantage.

Hearing his father's instructions, Yang Pet could only sigh bitterly, and then ran out to convey his father's order, and the bows and arrows on the city have not stopped, and a group of archers are tired, so they will change to another batch, even if the effect is minimal, at least it can cause considerable pressure on the Tang army, thereby slowing down the construction of the earth mountain.

At the same time, Li Shimin stood on a hill outside the city, looking at the Tang army's move to build a dirt mountain in the distance, and said with a smile while watching: "Chengfan's method is really good, although it seems to be a little stupid, but it is an upright conspiracy, even if the enemy sees through it, they have no way!" ”

Li Ji and Cheng Yanjin and others next to him also nodded in agreement when they heard Li Shimin's words, Chengfan is Li Daozong's word, the last time he discussed the strategy of attacking Anshi City, Li Daozong proposed a way, that is, he found that the southeast of Anshi City is relatively high, and there is a hill close to the city wall that can be used, as long as a mountain of earth is piled up under the city wall, the army can directly cross the city and enter, no matter how many troops the other party has, they can't hold Anshi City.

"There are many people and great strength, and tens of thousands of troops can really move mountains and seas when they work together!" Li Xiu also looked at it at this time and said in admiration, like the scene in front of him, I am afraid that it will be difficult for future generations to see, of course, future generations will not need it, after all, a few excavators may exceed tens of thousands of people to work together, but after seeing the scene in front of him, Li Xiu finally understood why the Great Wall could be built.

"Hehe, this is nothing, if you don't worry that those prisoners of war will be disobedient and lead to a rebellion before the battle, then you will force those prisoners of war to carry the mud, and if you can't carry them, you will directly fill them with human lives, and when the time comes, you can climb the city by stepping on the corpse!" Cheng Yanjin suddenly smiled when he heard Li Xiu's words, he had fought countless battles in his life, some of which were so tragic that others couldn't imagine, and he had not encountered such a thing as stepping on other people's corpses to climb the city.

"You are so old, and you don't know how to restrain your murderous nature, and this time it is Your Majesty's personal expedition, if you use this method, will Your Majesty's reputation be gone?" When Li Ji heard this, he glared at Cheng Yanjin and said, he and Cheng Yanjin have been old brothers for many years, and they are very casual when they speak.

"As a general, it is also appropriate to be more murderous, do you still want me to be merciful to the enemy on the battlefield?" Cheng Yanjin retorted without showing weakness at this time.

"Okay, Zhijie, don't quarrel, now that most of the troops in Anshi City have been concentrated in the southeast direction, when do you think the next step will be implemented?" At this moment, I suddenly saw Li Shimin interrupting the quarrel between Cheng Yanjin and Li Ji, turned around and looked at them with a smile and asked.

Hearing Li Shimin's inquiry, Li Xiu, Cheng Yanjin and others also showed serious expressions, although the method of building the earth mountain is very good, but after all, it takes a long time, according to Li Xiu's estimate, if this earth mountain wants to reach the dispatch of the city wall, it will take at least seven or eight days to build it, but Li Shimin can't wait that long, so he has a second step plan.
