the other side.
Li Jing and Jin Dazhong led an army of 100,000 to the front line.
These 100,000 troops all come from Li Jing's Fourth Army, which is now the most elite infantry force in the Tang Dynasty.
Perhaps in terms of overall combat strength, the Fourth Army was not as good as Meng Tian's First Army or Zhao Yun's Third Army.
However, in terms of the ability to charge into battle, the Fourth Army was the most powerful. This was the real reason why Tang Yu sent Li Jing to attack the Han army.
"Brother Li, do you think the Han army will stay behind closed doors as the prime minister said?" Jin Dazhong asked with a frown.
Li Jing looked at the city in front of him, and a solemn look flashed deep in his eyes.
Jin Dazhong asked, it was also the thing he was most worried about.
If the Han army chose to open the city gates and fight them head-on, Li Jing would not be afraid at all, and would even be confident of destroying all the Han armies.
But once the Han army chooses to stay behind closed doors and become a coward, the advantages of the Fourth Army will be greatly reduced. After all, the city is easy to defend but difficult to attack, and infantry attacking the city is no different than cannon fodder.
"No matter what, Your Majesty asked us to attack the Han army. Even if I die, I, Li Jing, will not let Your Majesty down!" Li Jing's eyes were like a torch, and his whole body was filled with majestic fighting spirit.
In Li Jing's mind, the Tang Dynasty had never been as powerful and prosperous as it was now.
As a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, Li Jing was sincerely proud. Not to mention the mere Han army, Li Jing was not afraid even when facing countries such as Da Chu.
The territory of the Tang Dynasty cannot be violated!
Hearing this, Jin Dazhong also became serious and said: "Captain Li is right, those who offend our Tang Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are. Today we must destroy the Han army!"
The words fell.
Li Jing and Jin Dazhong led the army to advance at full speed.
...
At the same time, inside the city.
Since Zhuge Yun left, the Empress Dowager of the Han Dynasty and others were on pins and needles, as if the air around them was extremely depressed.
At this time, a panicked voice came.
"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, this is bad! The Tang Army has surrounded the city!"
What!
Hearing this, all the soldiers present became uneasy. No one expected that Datang would come so quickly.
"How many people did they come?" the Queen Mother asked with a frown.
The soldier kneeling on the ground shivered and said in fear: "No... I don't know, there are so many people!"
Hearing this, a solemn look flashed in the Queen Mother's eyes. She knew that this battle was related to the life and death of the Han army.
"Let's go and have a look with me!"
Immediately, the Queen Mother led all the soldiers to the city wall.
When they saw Li Jing and other troops, all the soldiers present were shocked. Their faces suddenly turned pale, and their eyes showed fear.
Wang Zhongming rolled his throat, cold sweat instantly spread all over his body, and murmured: "This...how many people are here?"
I saw that, looking around, there was a mass of darkness standing below the city, like black clouds looming over the environment. Just the look alone made people shudder and make their scalp numb!
A chill ran down the soles of everyone's feet and hit the back of their heads.
The face of the burly Queen Mother was extremely ugly, and she felt as if she had eaten a dead fly.
She thought that the Tang Dynasty would send a large army to attack her, but she did not expect that it would send so many troops, at least 100,000 troops!
"Queen Mother, what should we do now?" Wang Zhongming and others all looked at the Queen Mother.
