In the early morning of the next day, this chaos just stopped, puffs of black smoke came out of the sky above the camp of the Min army, and several wooden gates that had been closed all night burst open, and the Min army was still benevolent, carrying the Roman sneak attackers who had been killed last night out of the camp on stretchers, and transported them to the city of Constantinople one by one under the white flag.

The Art of War: Attacking the city is the bottom, and the heart is the top. This humanitarian act, but it was shocking enough, in just half an hour, more than 2,000 corpses were transported out, a large number of them were displayed under the city wall, and the wounded soldiers were simply bandaged by the Fujian army and squatted under the city, groaning in pain, and the gauze soaked in blood, and the defenders on the head of the city were shocked, and for a long time, some priests also waved white flags, carefully slipped out of the city gate, and led the residents of the city to carry back little by little.

The Min army is a stretcher made of white cloth sewn between two bamboo poles, and the two of them are extremely easy to lift, and the Romans are not so brilliant, dragging the corpse to the city like a dead dog, and some of the barbarian mercenaries are worn out, and the blood is painted a heavy red on the ground, and the defenders of the city head are even more demoralized.

But Li Jie couldn't be happy at all.

In last night's attack, the Fujian army also suffered a lot of losses, no less than 1,000 people were killed, the burned grain tents were nothing, and the most aggrieved thing was that more than 100 2500 people forgot to bring reflectors and were slaughtered by their own people who were excited.

It is normal to die in battle, although I love the soldiers, but these injuries are also within the acceptable range, and the most troublesome thing for Li Jie is that digging from the ground, like the tactics used by Li Ji, blasting and destroying the city wall will not work.

The underground is full of tunnels, who knows where the Romans will lie in ambush, the tunnels are like a big mouth that devours life, and there are not enough people to fill it! The strategy of digging and attacking the city is completely bankrupt.

What's even more headache is that in addition to those tunnels yesterday, God knows how many tunnels are still under his feet, it is enough to say that he was attacked once, and Li Jie will also have a headache to collapse a few times, thinking about the Romans who attacked like ants coming out of a hole, Li Jie is scalp is numb

But no matter how much headache it takes, the war will go on, who made him choose the path of the hegemon, and after thinking for a long time with his swollen brain, Li Jie suddenly slapped his thigh.

"There it is!"

"Gar Xiangling, go and find all the craftsmen in the army for the widow!"

While commanding, Li Jie drew on the paper with a pen, and after a while, more than a dozen craftsmen and blacksmiths looked at each other with the drawings given by the King of Min, but the King of Min, who had more ink marks on his face, ignored it, and waved his hand to set the target.

"Draw a scoop according to the gourd, with the hardest steel, and the widow will see a thousand handles in the afternoon!"

More than 400,000 troops, in order to build war equipment, there were more than 5,000 craftsmen with the army, only to hear the tinkling sound in the blacksmith camp incessantly, before the afternoon, the selected 1,000 sappers were in the hands of each person.

In the afternoon, the Roman army defending the city saw the Fujian army scattering out again, holding a long Qimen weapon to the ground, and then poured out and didn't know what to look at twice, and when they arrived at some places, they dug pits and dug down, making them confused and nervous for a long time.

In the evening, the reports of the battalions came again in a colorful manner.

"King of Enlightenment! Dongying found seven tunnels, all of which were sealed. ”

"Your Majesty, Nanying has discovered five tunnels and has been controlled."

"Your Majesty, the conscience of this group of Romans is greatly broken, and they actually dug the tunnel under the well and gave us laxatives, fortunately, the prince of Min found it early!"

Listening to the report under his command, Li Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to worry about the soles of his feet.

In fact, Li Jie's magic weapon is quite simple, he was an archaeology student in his previous life, and what he created was his commonly used tool, Luoyang shovel!

This thing was invented by tomb robbers at the beginning, it can be called a tomb robbery artifact, relying on the change of the soil layer to find the ancient tomb, Luoyang near the mountain was almost stolen by them, and later found by archaeologists, and carried forward again, it is especially convenient to use this thing to explore the soil layer, the tunnel is buried deep underground, and it is impossible to dig up all places to take a look, a thousand Luoyang shovels can be regarded as solving this problem.

Although it left a lot of potholes, it was like pulling a turnip, so that the patrol stumbled if he was not paying attention.

Luoyang shovel did not harm the ancient tombs of China in this life, but he dug it in the land of Rome first, which can be regarded as a disaster, thinking of this, Li Jie smiled slyly, but then he had a bitter face.

Tunnel siege can not be done, although there is gunpowder, but the power of black powder is still too limited, if you want to collapse such as the city wall of Theodosius, such a strong fortress, there is no 10,000 catties of black powder buried in a closed environment can not be done, if you want to capture Constantinople, what method should be used?

Thinking of this, the irritable Li Jie suddenly shouted loudly.

"Hattori Hanzo, go and ask Li Feisheng, it's been five years since the widow explained his affairs! Hasn't he done it yet? ”

A short man dressed in black appeared out of nowhere, knelt respectfully on the ground, bowed, and then quickly disappeared into the darkness.

…………

The sound of clanging sounded everywhere in the huge Fujian military camp, and the neat and huge wooden planks were transported down from the Fu ship, loaded with the iron parts that had been configured, and put together, explaining the siege vehicles, huge arrow towers, and ladders began to show their rudiments little by little.

Since he couldn't use tricks to take the city, he had to use the right way to storm Constantinople, and Li Jie was also preparing for the use of force.

The afterglow of the sunset shines on the earth, using the unique Luban lock in China to connect the same skills, the siege equipment of Damin is built quickly, in less than three days, three siege towers, more than a dozen crashing cars have been exposed, the huge tower body covers half of the sun, and the giant is like revealing a large area of darkness on the earth.

The craftsman was busy on the heavy siege engine, and finally pasted the cowhide and lime for fireproofing, admiring the masterpiece of his craftsman, while Li Jie led the eldest grandson weaving and Anna to bid farewell to his eldest nephew Li Cheng.

"Uncle Min Wang is busy with military affairs, just send it here, the little nephew wishes Uncle Wang to destroy Hulu as soon as possible and unify the great cause of the country!"

At the beginning of the Wa Kingdom, Li Cheng still disagreed with his father's great respect for the King of Fujian, but all the way from Fuzhou to the sea, through the huge territory of Fujian, he has been shocked beyond measure, especially seeing the epic battle between the Min army and the Roman legion, he felt that his previous battles with the Ezo natives were like playing at home, not worth mentioning.

At this time, Li Cheng also admired Li Jie in his heart, if it wasn't for the fact that the Qi Wang family still needed him, he really wanted to stay in Fujian, such a grand career, even if he was a pawn, he would be willing!

Looking at Li Cheng's respectful appearance in his later life, Li Jie was also secretly refreshed, and casually took out a written parchment scroll from his sleeve and handed it to him, saying.

"When you go back to Fuzhou, give this letter to Wang Huairen, the governor of Fujian, and ask him to hand over to you the twenty sea souls and eighteen Dafu boats that Ba Fujian supervised today, if your father has sent troops to Yalu Shui, use these boats to ensure the way back, once the situation changes, you can still go back, if your father did not send troops, strongly persuade him, do not go to the troubled waters of the peninsula."

"Yuangai Suwen is dead, no one can stop the pace of the Tang army, use these ships to guard Tsushima, naturally ensure that he does not lose the Qi domain, and also, after all, the tenth Li Zhi is already the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, let him not be so stubborn, write two letters to make him happy, and there will be no less meat!"

"No, in the heart of the little nephew, Uncle Min is the real emperor of the Tang Dynasty!!"

Putting away the parchment letter, Li Cheng took Li Jie's words, and bowed very sincerely, making Li Jie stunned for a moment, and then, a smile appeared on his face, patted his shoulder, and Li Jie nodded with a smile.

"It won't be long, that's it!"

After sending off this pleasing nephew, Li Jie once again became high-spirited, and when he led the forbidden army back to the Fujian army walled city, he suddenly became ambitious, pointed to the siege engines and towers, and ordered loudly.

"Come on, talk about these guys and leave the walled city, put them under the city of Constantinople, let him Constantine see, the widow is going to use these things to beat his city, take back the throne that the widow and Anna deserve, scare him to pee his pants, hahahaha!"

King Min smiled happily, but the prime minister Yu Wenjie, who was in charge of supervising the work, almost didn't cry, and before Li Jie finished his order, he ran down from the overseer tower in a hurry, and persuaded him in a hurry: "Your Majesty, don't!"

"These siege weapons are fragile and afraid of fire, and they are the heavy treasures of my Great Min's attack on Constantinople, if Constantine's thieves and dogs jump over the wall in a hurry, send troops to sneak attack, and destroy them, it will be a major blow to the morale of our army!"

"It doesn't matter! I **** to the country, I should have the bearing of the **** country! If you have this sharp weapon, you should take it out openly! Maybe the Romans were frightened and came out and surrendered! Li Jie was unmoved, still waving his robe with a big grin.

However, seeing that Yuwenjie was still unmoved, with a bitter look, Li Jie had to wink at Yuwenjie depressedly, and said: "False Dao destroys !!"

"There is really no tacit understanding!"

muttering depressedly, Li Jie swaggered and led his two beautiful girls to the Chinese army tent again, leaving Yuwenjie confused, what did King Min think!

However, Li Jie's will was the will of the Min army, and after the order was issued, the walled wall was still torn down, and thousands of Min troops pulled heavy equipment from the camp and shouted trumpets to push them to the plains separated from Constantinople.

Looking at these sophisticated siege equipment, on the walls of Constantinople, the defenders who had already become frightened birds were really in an uproar again, holding binoculars and watching, Constantine IV's pupils once again showed a particularly ruthless color............
