On the right side of the Western Expedition Army, the soldiers and horses are located in Qunu City, fifteen miles south of the main camp.
Han Peng, the general of the Dragon Pioneer Cavalry, Coors, the Hapu Dynasty's deputy general, and Zamuna, the translator from the Western Regions, walked out of the Tianzhu-style Qunu City with different expressions.
The three of them came to Qunu City this time as the dragon envoys to persuade the Polo Dynasty to surrender. Although they met the noble ministers in Qunu City as they wished, they did not see the Polo King Roye Polo III.
From the words translated by Zamuna, we learned that King Royepolo III had given the order to the Prime Minister of Palo Albola to defend the city and defend the country five days ago and then disappeared.
According to Han Peng's calculations, the date when King Polo disappeared happened to be the day when Guluo City, which was adjacent to the royal city in the territory of Polo Dynasty, was captured.
Guluo City is the last city leading to the royal city Qunu City. Once Guluo City is captured, it means that Qunu City will no longer have any defense and will be completely exposed like a naked beauty. Under the front of hundreds of thousands of dragon cavalry.
After Han Peng left the city gate, he silently looked back at the Polo guards standing on the city wall who were secretly watching the three of them, and cursed in a low voice: "What the hell, this Royepolo III can't be Did he abandon his people and flee from the city?
If this is the case, this King Royepala III is really ashamed to be a king, and he is worse than Bahori!
At least Baholi knew that the city would be destroyed and the country would be destroyed, but he still held on until the final moment when the city was broken. "
Coors has been working hard to learn Chinese since he surrendered to the rule of the dragon army. However, due to the short time and the continuous march, Coors' time to study Chinese is really limited.
Therefore, he could only half-understand Han Peng's whispered curses, and had to look for help at the Western Region translator Zamuna.
"Brother Zhamu, what did General Han just say?"
"General Coors and General Han are somewhat doubtful that the reason why the King of the Polo Dynasty did not show up is because he abandoned the city and fled after learning the news that our heavenly army was approaching the city.
It is said that King Loyapala III was not as brave as your King Bahori. "
Coors smiled bitterly when he heard this but said nothing. He was not happy because Han Peng praised his former king Bahouli for his bravery.
The Hapu Dynasty was destroyed under the iron cavalry of your Great Dragon Kingdom, and King Baholi and the noble ministers who participated in the massacre of the Great Dragon people became prisoners.
With such a bleak ending, what's the use of praising King Bahori?
The three of them had walked about three to five miles when hundreds of elite cavalry immediately rolled up a long dragon of smoke and rushed toward them.
"Hush!"
"Hush!"
When the two sides were more than twenty steps away, they both tightened their reins. The general of the trapped army, Cheng Kai, dismounted and walked towards Han Peng and the others.
"The last general Han Peng meets the general."
"The last general Coors meets the general."
"Little civilian Zamuna meets the general."
Cheng Kai waved his hand nonchalantly and glanced at Qunv City, where the city gate could be vaguely seen: "How was it? Did you see King Polo after you arrived at Qunv City? Is he willing to leave the city and surrender?"
Han Peng shook his head with regret: "I didn't see King Polo, I only saw their so-called Prime Minister Ai Pola. After Ai Pola received us...
This is probably what happened. As for whether King Polo really gave up on the people in the city and fled the city, this is just the general's guess.
We cannot rule out the possibility that he deliberately avoided seeing her.
Aipola said that because their king is not in the city now, he alone cannot make the decision about their surrender. He must convene the noble colleagues in the city to discuss before he can give us the result.
The general doesn't know what to do, and he is worried that the Boluo people in the city may use dirty tricks on the three generals, so he doesn't dare to stay in the city for a long time, so he can only go out of the city and come back to join you, the general. "
After listening to Han Peng's words, a gloomy look flashed through Cheng Kai's eyes as he looked at the wall of Qunv City. He gently stroked the handle of the sword at his waist and said fiercely.
"You really don't know how to praise me! Since you are seeking death, you can't blame us, the Great Dragon Celestial Empire, for not showing kindness!"
"What do you mean, General?"
"Go back to the military camp first and report to the commander truthfully. It is up to the commander to decide how to act."
"Got the order!"
Cheng Kai swung his shirt and walked towards his horse. After getting on his horse, he whipped his whip and galloped away.
"Go back to camp!"
Hundreds of cavalry turned their horses resolutely and without hesitation followed Cheng Kai towards the main camp of the three armies of Dalong soldiers and horses.
After less than half an hour, in the big tent of the three armies of Dalong Camp, Nangong Ye and the others looked at each other silently after listening to Cheng Kai's report.
"What do the two brothers think?"
Yunchong placed the tea cup heavily on the table and glanced at the many generals in the tent: "Whether this is King Polo's delaying strategy or not, we can't wait any longer.
The opportunity has been given to them. Since they don't know how to cherish it, don't blame me, the Great Dragon Celestial Dynasty, for using troops vigorously and resolutely!
Time is particularly important to us, there is no need to look forward and backward for a small Queen City.
The military governor suggested that the three armies should be immediately mobilized to rush to Qunu City, ready to attack the city at any time. "
Cheng Kai stood up first and nodded in agreement: "General, I second the proposal.
Commander-in-Chief, Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Commander-in-Chief, we all know without thinking that His Majesty must be eagerly awaiting the current progress of our Western Expedition Army in the capital!
Now we are not in Northern Xinjiang. Even if the battle report can reach His Majesty unimpeded, it will take about a month and a half at the fastest.
It's harder to speak slowly.
If we delay for three to five days, it's hard to say how long His Majesty will wait.
We must end the war in the entire north and south of Tianzhu as soon as possible, so that His Majesty and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty can completely rest assured that they no longer have to worry about the safety of our Western Expeditionary Army all the time.
Therefore, the last general agreed with Governor Yun's suggestion, and the army immediately set off and rushed to Qunu City, striving to capture the entire Boluo Dynasty in one go.
Then troops and horses were divided to station in the north and south to develop people's livelihood. The remaining troops and horses contacted Zhang Shuai to see if their war there needed the assistance of my troops on the right! "
After Cheng Kai's words caused a brief silence in the big tent, Nangong Ye slapped the table and stood up, scanning the generals under the tent with sharp eyes.
"What do you think?"
"We second the proposal!"
"Okay! You will follow the order."
"I'm waiting."
"The three armies set off and rushed to Qunu City."
"We take the order!"
On the eleventh day of the first month of the fourth year of Dalong's reign of peace.
The sun is at the middle of the sky, around three quarters of noon.
Outside the north gate of Qunu City of the Polo Dynasty, there were 200,000 soldiers of the Western Expedition Army in full formation, as well as a 50,000 vanguard army organized by the Tianzhu troops of the Hapu Dynasty.
After the first test firing of hundreds of artillery shells, in less than half a cup of tea, Qunu City was completely enveloped in flames and gunpowder smoke.
Hundreds of thousands of troops silently looked at the smoke-filled Qunv City, their expressions calm and normal, without any abnormality.
They have long been accustomed to their own siege tactics that use overwhelming artillery superiority.
First, artillery fire covered the city, arrow arrays covered the area, and kerosene burned the city. Then the vanguard troops and horses broke through the city. The main force of the Chinese army entered the city and broke the formation to kill the enemy. The rear army soldiers and horses made up for their wounds and swept the battlefield to collect loot. This has been going on for more than half a year. The Western Expedition armies were consistently dispatched during siege battles in the north and south of Tianzhu.
I don't know when it started, but under the influence of Cheng Kai, Ning Chao, Han Peng, Jiang Lei and other new army generals, Nangong Ye and other veteran generals couldn't help but fall in love with this rogue tactics.
In an encounter in the wild, you should form your troops and gradually surround and kill the enemy.
When it comes to siege battles, no matter what happens, just cover it with artillery fire without saying anything.
After that, there were secondary strikes with various long-range weapons, and finally the soldiers were ordered to attack the city.
It doesn't matter whether long-range weapons such as cannonballs, bows and arrows, crossbows, trebuchets, and kerosene can completely annihilate the enemy. We must first bring out the momentum of our own troops.
As time went by, Nangong Ye, Yun Chong, Wanyan Chiezha... they began to understand more and more why Young Master Liu was so fond of this rogue method of killing enemies from a distance.
