Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 669

[Chapter 669]

it used to be “Boom boom boom…”

One grenade flew up the city wall.

Ma Jin’s soldier, who was hiding under the wall due to being shot by skirmishers, saw something like a stick fall in front of him.

Before they could react, the sticks suddenly exploded.

Ma Jin’s soldiers who were crowded together suddenly suffered heavy casualties, and there were bursts of miserable howls.

But this was only the beginning, and then the sticks were thrown on the city wall, and they exploded round after round.

After five consecutive rounds of throwing, the cannons on the walls of the city became silent.

Mahan observed through the telescope for a while and decisively gave the order to attack the city.

kill! The soldiers of the Ma family let out a roar that shook the sky, and they rushed towards the city wall carrying the ladder.

Under the bombardment of grenades, only a small number of Ma Jin soldiers remained on the east wall of the city at this moment.

And these soldiers were also terrified when they looked at the corpses strewn all over the city wall.

Due to the lack of defense against grenades, the generals on the walls of the city were killed and wounded, and no one organized resistance.

Soldiers who had never seen a grenade were shattered in the center of each explosion, losing their fighting spirit, like a frightened bird.

With the sound of killing, their legs trembled and they forgot to fight.

At this moment, the ladders leaned against the city wall one by one.

Following the ladder, the soldiers of the Ma family quickly climbed onto the wall of the city of Rang, took up their bayonets, and rushed towards the soldiers of Ma Jin, shouting at the same time, “Surrender and don’t kill!”

Hearing the orders of the soldiers of the Ma family, many of the remaining soldiers of Ma Jin threw themselves away. With the sword in his hand, he knelt on the ground and chose to surrender.

Some Ma Jin soldiers who chose to resist were turned into hedgehogs by bayonets.

In a short period of time, Ma’s soldiers captured the city wall.

Then they descended the steps and controlled the gates on all sides.

Some soldiers were condescending and shot Ma Jin’s soldiers who were trying to compete with them for the city wall.

After half an hour, the sandbags and stones in the city gate were cleared, and the Ma family soldiers opened the city gate.

Seeing this, Mahan ordered a full-scale attack.

The soldiers of the Ma family outside the city roared and entered the city from the ladder or the city wall.

“Happy, really happy.” Ma Han walked back and forth excitedly looking at the Ma family members pouring into the city.

During Zhao Heng’s Northern Expedition, the 100,000 soldiers under his command were still helpless in the face of Rangcheng, losing troops and losing generals.

But just two years apart, it’s like a world of difference.

It only took him two hours to break through the city of soil.

This result boosted his confidence.

Although Dian Zhang looked calm, his heart was turbulent.

This station proved to them the power of Yanzhou firearms.

Equipped with the firearms provided by the King of Yan, and trained by the generals of the King of Yan.

The current Ma family soldiers and horses are no longer the previous Ma family soldiers and horses, and a qualitative change has simply taken place.

He nodded lightly and said: “The head of the family really made a wise decision at the beginning. If Tong Hao hadn’t cut the seats and joined King Yan’s command, how could there be today’s grand occasion.

” The children who are quite critical always keep their mouths shut.

Hearing this, Ma Han was overjoyed.

At that time, this was indeed a difficult decision. After all, relying on the wealthy family to rule the people, and the powerful family to rule the wealthy family, this is the law for thousands of years.

To betray this law is tantamount to becoming the public enemy of the wealthy family.

When he wiped out the rebellious Hao family in Sizhou, he dreamed back at midnight, and he also doubted whether his decision was correct.

Fortunately, he persisted.

Otherwise, perhaps today, his Ma family will cease to exist.

Although Sizhou is now under the jurisdiction of the imperial court, the Ma family’s army no longer belongs to the Ma family.

But at least King Yan preserved the prosperity and wealth of the Ma family.

And that’s enough.

If this time, he can take back Qinzhou and Yongzhou, kill Ma Jin with his own hands, break through Nanliang and kill Dou Wei, he will have no regrets.

“Boom boom boom…” Just as he was thinking, there was a grenade explosion in the soil city.

The Ma soldiers apparently encountered resistance.

They exchanged glances with Dian Zhang and they walked towards the city of soil.

Climbing to the city wall, the two observed the situation on the battlefield through binoculars.

Under the attack of Ma’s soldiers, Ma Jin’s soldiers in Rang City retreated steadily, and many Ma Jin’s soldiers knelt on the side of the road and surrendered to Ma’s soldiers.

Most of these Ma Jin soldiers were strong men captured by Ma Jin in Qinzhou and Yongzhou, and some were handed over to Ma Jin from Beidi when Xiliang fell.

When these soldiers gained power, they were still able to obey the orders of General Ma Jing and fight them.

But in the face of their ferocious firearms, these soldiers were quickly defeated by fear.

Seeing this scene, the two breathed a sigh of relief.

They won the battle in Land City.

The time lasted until the evening, and at dawn the next day, the gunfire in the city gradually subsided.

Just after breakfast, Dianzhang sent Mahan a battle report.

“Master Patriarch, more than 30,000 people were annihilated in this battle, more than 60,000 were captured, and our army suffered 832 casualties.” The law read out a series of numbers that even he himself could not believe.

If 50,000 to 60,000 troops were not sacrificed in the past, it would have been impossible to take down Land City.

But now it took them only one day to take down the city of soil. There were only more than 800 people killed and injured.

How shocking this is.

Ma Hanzheng paused for a while, raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were full of excitement.

He was more and more grateful for his original choice, and at the same time, he was in awe of King Yan from the bottom of his heart.

From now on, he must not be contemptuous towards this King Yan, and he should be loyal and do his duty.

“Leave 1,000 people to guard Rangcheng, and dispatch 1,000 people to escort the captured soldiers to Sizhou. The rest rest during the day, and for the next three days, we will walk day and night. We will take it down with lightning speed. Xiancheng.” Mahan said.

During this period of time, he also went to the military school in Yanzhou every now and then, and mastered many tactics that he had never seen before in the school.

Some of these tactics, the examples cited are the tactics used by King Yan in the battle of Jinzhou.

This time, he asked the Ma family soldiers to carry only weapons, ammunition and fried noodles, and pack lightly, in order to adopt one of the night attack tactics.

After resting for a whole day, when night fell, the soldiers and horses of the Ma family disappeared into the night.

salty city.

On the evening of the second day after Yancheng was attacked, a pair of cavalry entered Xiancheng.

Passed the news to Ma Jin that the Ma family soldiers and horses attacked the city of soil.

“What! Ma Han really dared to attack Rangcheng.”

Ma Jin was leading his generals and Beidi generals to drink and have fun in Yuxianglou, Xiancheng.

When he heard the news, he slapped the table and stood up, looking annoyed.

Then he sneered and sat down, “At the beginning of the Northern Expedition, he spent more than a month and couldn’t break through the soil city. What can he do today? Let him lose troops and generals from a long distance. In a few days, we will send out a large army and destroy Mahan This army.”

As if thinking of something, he suddenly became proud, “The coalition army that conquered Yan is currently fighting with King Yan’s army in Qi, but unfortunately we have no chance to participate. If we can annihilate Ma Han’s army, it will be considered a great achievement pieces.”
