Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 106

[Chapter 106 Casualties]

“The soldiers in Yancheng are well-defended and orderly. This general defending the city is quite capable.”

Kutu looked towards the city and frowned.

After launching the attack, the defenders of Yancheng responded in a timely manner every time and fought with ease.

He didn’t know how many casualties were caused to King Yan’s soldiers just now.

However, in such a short period of time, they have already had hundreds of casualties.

“It is said that the general is called Chang Wei. He was a general in the Forbidden Army. He made great achievements in the battle with Xiliang before, but he was arrogant and upright, and he was not welcomed by the generals. He was sent to Yan County to protect King Yan.” Mu Tuo Said.

Before the autumn hunt, he did some research.

He knew something about Chang Wei.

Kutu nodded, Tuoba Lie had told him this information.

“This king of Yan is lucky to have such a capable general under his command, but we Beidi people have never been afraid to fight against the famous general of Dasong.” Kutu smiled lightly.

In the battle of Ningjin Dusi back then, famous generals gathered together, and they were defeated by them.

Today, there are still many people who were convicted of this battle and were imprisoned by Emperor Dasong.

While the two were talking, they saw the cloud ladder team arrive at the city, and the long ladder was erected.

Mu Tuo laughed loudly, “As long as our Beidi warriors climb the city wall, King Yan will be defeated.” Kutu

nodded.

Beidi soldiers grew up drinking mare’s milk and eating beef and mutton. They are much stronger than Dasong soldiers.

In previous battles, the same number of soldiers from Beidi could completely defeat the soldiers of Dasong.

Moreover, the cold and harsh environment of the grassland also made Beidi soldiers more able to endure hardships.

That’s why they often win.

Therefore, in the eyes of Beidi people, Dasong soldiers are like weak girls.

They also like to go hand-to-hand with Da Song soldiers the most.

Because often in this way, the soldiers will collapse faster.

They are expecting Beidi soldiers to climb the city wall and reverse the situation on the battlefield.

At this time, I saw the Dasong soldiers on the city wall picking up the stone and throwing it down.

There are also soldiers pouring hot oil from porcelain pots.

In an instant, Beidi soldiers who climbed the ladder screamed.

Soldiers fell from the ladder to the ground one by one.

Kutu and Mutuo’s expressions became ugly again.

However, they also expected that the defender would definitely use these tricks.

“Let the archers and firecrackers cover the ladder,” Kutu said.

At the beginning of the siege, the Beidi archers shot arrows at the city wall, and the arrows from both sides came and went.

After his order was passed down, the arrows at the ladder suddenly became denser.

A stone bomb also roughly fell towards that position.

city wall.

The soldiers carrying stones and hot oil immediately became difficult.

Their armor is good against arrows, but stone bullets falling on their heads are not so easy to carry.

Immediately, a soldier was wounded and lay down, and blood flowed from his helmet.

“Take the wounded soldiers down to take care of them.” Zhao Xu ordered.

He looked out of the city, and soldiers from Beidi continued to replenish and continued to try to capture the city wall.

He knew that such a stalemate might last for a long time.

War is sometimes compared to consumption and each other’s will.

After all, a surprise attack is tricky, but it cannot replace bloody fights on the frontal battlefield.

The sun rises from the eastern horizon to the treetops, and from the treetops to the mid-heaven.

From the mid-heaven down to the western horizon.

When dusk gradually enveloped the land, horns sounded in the Beidi camp.

The Beidi people finally withdrew to the camp carrying the ladders.

At this time, the loess outside the city was full of Beidi corpses.

The crimson blood stained the land.

In the dark sky, the crows made a “quack” cry, and the smell of blood here attracted them.

“Collect arrows and replenish supplies for defending the city.” Chang Wei’s hoarse voice sounded.

He came to Zhao Xu from the other end of the city wall.

“Your Highness, go back and rest. It’s fine for the general to stay here at the end of the night.” Although Chang Wei was tired, his face was full of excitement that could not be concealed.

During the daytime battle, they did not suffer.

“How about our casualties?” Zhao Xu asked.

Today he basically stayed on the city wall, commanding the battle with Chang Wei.

But he is not very clear about the situation of other city gates.

“The generals have already reported. Thirty-seven soldiers were killed by the stone bullets. Another 145 soldiers were seriously injured, and 383 soldiers were slightly injured.” Chang Wei said.

Then he looked down the city, “The last general nodded, and at least two thousand Beidi people died.”

Zhao Xu nodded slightly when he heard this.

Chang Wei had reason to be excited. This battle loss ratio was unbelievable in previous battles between Da Song and Beidi.

But he still felt sorry for his soldiers.

It’s just that he also understands that if there is war, there will be sacrifice.

A country, a nation, if there are no sacrifices, it will only become the enemy’s plaything in the end.

Come into this world.

He is Dasong, and the people of this country are his comrades.

He didn’t want to see their blood flow into rivers and corpses piled up under the iron hooves of foreign races in the future, and they would become inferior people from then on.

Beidi Camp.

After Mu Tuo presented the number of casualties to Kutu, he remained silent.

“Two thousand three hundred and seventy-two people.” Kutu felt his heart bleeding.

“How about the casualties of Da Song’s soldiers?” He asked anxiously.

“They are in the city and cannot be detected, but we have killed so many people, there must be a lot of them, but if we attack and they defend, there may be fewer.” Mu Tuo said.

After hesitating for a moment, he said: “After fighting today, I think the armor of the soldiers in Yancheng may be as strong as those servant soldiers said.”

Kutu frowned into the word Chuan.

The servant soldiers who escaped from Qingfengkou that day said that the armor of Dasong soldiers was so hard that they couldn’t attack, which was extremely exaggerated.

He thought it was just an excuse for their failure.

After what Mutuo said, coupled with his observation, he began to believe it a little bit.

What still confuses him is that the Dasong Imperial Army does not have such armor yet.

How did King Yan get it?

It’s just that no matter what, Yancheng’s attraction to him is even greater.

The wealth of King Yan, the fine wine of King Yan, the beauties of Yancheng, and now the armor-making skills of King Yan.

“Continue to attack the city tomorrow.” Kutu said, he couldn’t wait to enter the city now.

“I’m afraid this will only increase casualties.” Mu Tuo felt the need to persuade Kutu.

After arriving in Yancheng, Kutu became a little weird.

In the past, after such a loss, he would not continue.

Seeing Mu Tuo’s worried expression, Kutu felt the need to reveal his real purpose.

So he told him about Tuoba Lie and the Zhang family plan.

“So that’s how it is.” Mu Tuo suddenly understood.

He also wondered why five thousand people were prepared just to recharge their batteries.

“Hahaha, it seems that Yancheng cannot escape the palm of the king.” Mu Tuo was in a good mood.

So many casualties of Beidi soldiers made his teeth itch with hatred.

If he can enter the city this time, he will kill not a single soldier of King Yan.
