Become a feudal king from today

"Your Highness, if we annihilate the Dongtu Alliance soldiers in Yangcheng, we will have wiped out about 70% of their troops. Read"

In a raised hill ten miles north of Rangcheng.

Zhao Xu and Chang Wei were observing Rangcheng. In addition to the King of Goryeo, there were also some Goryeo generals around them.

Waiting for the rear army to arrive, they sent troops to Korea.

In the first battle of Fengming Mountain, 80,000 Eastern and Turkish Allied Forces were wiped out.

The royal troops didn't feel anything, but the defeated soldiers of the Goryeo army were greatly encouraged.

Many fleeing Goryeo troops ran out of the mountains and forests.

Follow the royal army and act together.

However, they are basically only responsible for doing menial work.

For example, they are responsible for collecting grain and burying pots to make rice.

"Well, this battle at Rangcheng will determine the direction of the Goryeo war. We must fight to a quick conclusion and show our prestige to prevent them from continuing to invest troops in Goryeo and falling into the quagmire of war." Zhao Xu said solemnly.

Goryeo was just a small episode in its expansion of its sphere of influence.

You can't invest too much time and energy here.

Otherwise, it would affect his plan to unify Dasong.

"Don't worry, Your Highness, they will definitely regret setting foot on this land." Chang Wei said.

Zhao Xu nodded and continued to look forward.

There is a big river on the north side of Yangcheng called Pu River.

Rangcheng was built behind the Pu River and connected by a stone bridge.

The trench of the Eastern-Turkish Allied Forces is in front of this stone bridge.

Regarding this arrangement, Zhao Xu secretly nodded.

If it were a Japanese general or a powerful general, he would definitely blow up the stone bridge and just defend Rangcheng.

But even so, they could still find a way to cross the Pu River and reach the foot of Rang City unscathed.

But the Western General Yangcheng dug a trench position at Shiqiao, and they had to take down this position before they could continue to advance.

Otherwise, ignore them and bypass the trench positions and go straight across the river.

Union soldiers in trench positions could attack them from the flanks and rear.

Thinking of this, he ordered his soldiers to dig trenches in tit-for-tat confrontation with the Eastern Turkish Alliance.

But this time, he ordered the King of Korea to send many Korean soldiers to cooperate in digging trenches.

Three days later, compared to the trench positions of the Eastern Turkish Alliance, the royal army also dug their own trench positions.

The positions of both sides were intertwined, and the closest distance was only about thirty meters.

This distance is completely enough for the royal soldiers to throw grenades into the opponent's trench.

When everything was ready, Zhao Xu ordered an attack on the trench position in front of the stone bridge.

After receiving the order, the howitzers placed behind the trench positions roared, and the shells arced across the arc and fell into the trenches of the Eastern Turkish Alliance.

Field artillery was useless against enemy soldiers in the trenches.

But howitzers can drop shells into trenches.

Coupled with explosive shells, it can cause massive casualties to the enemy in the trench.

"Boom boom boom..."

The Eastern-Turkish Alliance's trench positions were instantly covered by artillery fire.

This time, the Military Division sent all one hundred howitzers and special ammunition to the army.

Enough for them.

"ah……"

Under the bombardment of howitzers, screams were heard from time to time from the Eastern Turkey Alliance position.

Some shells fell into the middle of the soldiers, and the huge power directly knocked the soldiers away, causing their limbs and arms to fly everywhere.

Some soldiers were pushed directly against the trench wall by the shock wave and passed out on the spot.

Yangcheng.

Carter looked at the battlefield, a drop of cold sweat sliding down his face.

Yamada Haruno tried hard to stay calm, but his hands couldn't help shaking slightly.

He knew that King Yan's soldiers and horses had a kind of explosive bomb.

But the Dasong clan said that the power of this explosive bomb was not too great.

But now, when a bomb falls, it can make a big crater.

In fact, the powerful people did not lie to him.

After all, the powerful people have experienced blooming bullets loaded with black powder, and have not yet tasted blooming bullets loaded with yellow gunpowder.

What's more, the shells fired by the howitzers this time were not only filled with yellow gunpowder, but the threaded wooden plugs of the shells were also changed into threaded steel plugs.

With these two improvements, the power of the shell explosion is even more terrifying.

Compared to Carter and Yamada Haruno, Xie An's head was covered with cold sweat.

Now, he just wants to run away.

So, he said: "On land, we can't defeat King Yan at all. If we continue to fight, we will only lose the lives of soldiers in vain. The best way is to use steamships to control Jiujiang and prevent King Yan from going south."

After a pause, he continued to Carter: "After that, you must provide us with all possible help, so that we can finally defeat King Yan!"

"Nonsense!" Yamada Haruno was furious when he heard this, "What depressing words are you talking about? We have sacrificed so many soldiers and we absolutely cannot just withdraw like this."

Carter chose to remain silent. If he was commanding a Western Army now, he might still have a chance to defeat King Yan.

The firearms of the Japanese army and the firearms of the Shi clan army are very different from the soldiers and horses of the King of Yan.

Moreover, the physical quality of their soldiers is far inferior to that of the Western Soldiers, let alone the rare earth soldiers who are mostly educated and well-trained.

Although he knew that the best way now was to evacuate while the trench position was resisting King Yan's troops.

However, at this moment, he finally realized that King Yan was a real threat.

In the Eastern Continent, such a powerful country was born.

In the future, they will definitely compete with Western countries for worldwide interests.

This time when he goes back, he really wants Britain and Sam to provide Japan with the greatest support.

At the same time, arm the powerful families of Dasong as much as possible to contain the King of Yan.

Otherwise, if this beast breaks out of the cage, they will not be able to recklessly reap benefits in the East.

Therefore, he wants the East Coalition to continue fighting the King of Yan.

On the one hand, he can understand the King of Yan's army, and on the other hand, he can continue to consume the King of Yan's troops, which is beneficial to their West.

The three people have different thoughts.

The battle situation in the trench position is becoming more and more unfavorable to the East Coalition.

The bombardment lasted for about half an hour and stopped.

At this time, a group of royal soldiers climbed out of the trench and rushed to the opposite side.

Under the bombardment of the howitzer, the soldiers of the East Coalition covered their ears and leaned against the earth wall of the trench.

The bombardment stopped suddenly, and they had no time to react at all.

"Kill!"

At the relatively narrowest part of the trench, the royal soldiers rushed through in just five or six seconds.

They jumped into the enemy's trench and killed the Japanese soldiers.

The bayonet pierced the Japanese soldiers through.

Afterwards, more and more of the royal soldiers jumped into the trenches and engaged in close combat.

On the hilltop, Zhao Xu watched the battlefield.

He did not like the royal soldiers to make unnecessary sacrifices, but the royal soldiers were never afraid of sacrifice.

Dare to kill and fight is the soul of this army.

Otherwise, no matter how good the weapons are, they will not be able to exert their due power.

Moreover, in this era, the Western Army is at its peak in history.

Now, the war they are facing is just a pediatric battle, and future wars will only become more and more cruel.

He knew it since he took charge of Yanzhou.

He and this generation of Dasong people are destined to exchange blood and sweat for the supreme glory of Dasong.
