    Cheng Chumo wiped the dust from his face. The smell of gunpowder smoke was everywhere.  On the distant coast, countless sail shadows are moving.  Every sailing ship was transporting people and supplies to the coast, his grandma's.  What do those reconnaissance ships sent out do for food? Are the people on these ships falling from the sky?

    Damn typhoon season makes it impossible for airships to take off.  Otherwise, the five hundred miles radius is within his control.  There is no reason why such a large fleet was not discovered by oneself.

    ¡°The damn big cannibal actually has gunpowder, and he also has kerosene.  It was a wall of fire in front of the city, making it impossible for his cavalry to move.  The twenty or thirty war elephants trained were unable to exert their power.  Animals' instinct is to be afraid of fire, and burning things always make them terrified.

    "I will let you burn, but I want to see how long you can keep me stuck here." Cheng Chumo said viciously.

    "They don't need long, they just need us not to disturb their landing. Look, they have defeated the natives. They are building their own camp, and the general leading the team must be a veteran. Facing a strong enemy like Strait Castle,  The city must be defended step by step, and the way to victory is to fight steadily." Ling Jing looked at the natives in the distance, where corpses littered the fields.

    When the Persian army just washed ashore, they were the first to bear the brunt.  The rebellious spirit of the natives is worthy of praise. They are single-minded and strongly identify with the Tang people.  The Tang people here gave them land to farm and gave them the right to bully the savages in the jungle.  As long as they pay some taxes every year and take on some work that the Tang people are unwilling to do, they can live a good life.

    ¡°No one raped their wives and daughters, and no one took away their property.  Everything is so harmonious, but there are many people who want to marry their beautiful daughters to the Tang Dynasty.

    The Persians came like a flood, the day after the typhoon stopped.  Except for the huge warships of the Tang Dynasty, no one could survive the typhoon.  The ships of the Persians were far smaller than those of the Tang people, and no one knew how they got here.  The search distance of the airship is five hundred miles, and no ship can sail five hundred miles overnight.  This is also the reason why the Persian army's raid caused such heavy losses to Strait Castle.

    "They must be traveling along the coast of Tianzhu. The typhoon will lose a lot of power when it passes through the mainland. If they were traveling along the coast of Tianzhu, they would have set off at least half a year ago. It is estimated that the typhoon will pass through this time of year. Our  The airship cannot detect their whereabouts. The opposing general is a shrewd man, and this battle will not be easy to fight." Ling Jing is now like a fox when he grows fur. He can deduce the situation of the Persian army just by relying on the situation within a few hours of the war.  intention.

    "Hmph! If you want to eat me, you won't have to worry about breaking his teeth." Cheng Chumo said unconvinced.  In fact, he had a very small army, only 3,500 men.  The rest were native soldiers, who fought bravely with swords in hand.  But when he hears the sound of an explosion, he panics easily like a rabbit.

    Such were the natives on the coast, when the first Persians landed.  They put up a desperate resistance, but when the explosion of grenades sounded, the natives began to disperse.

    People in the Tang Dynasty also have things that can explode.  The natives felt that it was a weapon given by the gods.  Man cannot compete with God. Only those with weapons given by God are the opponents.  In front of them, I am nothing.

    The natives gave up their resistance, and the Tang people were trapped in the castle by the fire and could not get out.

    The Persians began to land in a swaggering manner, and the dark crowd was as dense as crabs at low tide.  These people built the camp calmly, and trebuchets continued to throw wood and kerosene into the fire in front of the city wall.

    Cheng Chumo could only watch all this depressedly, and they could do nothing.  The airship seemed to be able to do something, but unfortunately a huge hot air balloon rose above the Persians.  This surprised Cheng Chumo so much that he wouldn't believe it even if he killed him. The hot air balloon was not equipped with a eight-niu crossbow.  In fact, in the sky, there is not much difference between a stationary hot air balloon and a slow-moving airship.

    The only result of two shots at each other is to die together. In terms of losses, of course the Tang people are bigger.  Cheng Chumo even thought that as long as the Persian balloon was burst.  They pick it up and refill it, and they can continue to use it.

    But if the airship flies out now, it will definitely be shot down in enemy-occupied territory and cannot be recovered.

    Now the Tang Army¡¯s own airship can only stay and hover above its own head, otherwise it will be too close to the Persian camp.

    All advantages are gone, of course, if Ling Jing doesn't use that new weapon.

    "The Persians are working hard this time! Look at this, there are at least 60,000 to 70,000 people!" They are all people who have worked hard on the battlefield for many years. Looking at the scale, Ling Jing knows that the number of enemy troops far exceeds that of the Tang army.They take revenge, this is what I, the general, want to do.  "Cheng Chumo looked at the old angry young man next to him.

    Ling Jing¡¯s situation was very wrong, he was as impassioned as a mad dog, and his hands were waving like they were cramping.

    There¡¯s no need for you, old man, to be so excited. What if you suffer from cerebral congestion or heart disease due to excitement?

    "Hey! That's a long way to go. I get angry when I think of those people who are cheating on others. It's not because they have different political views, it's because they betrayed their ancestors. Different political views, as long as everyone works hard for the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, political views  It doesn't matter if we are different. Because we reach the same destination by different paths, everyone is doing it for the good of the Tang Dynasty.

    But those people are different. They take it as their own duty to persecute their compatriots who despise them.  Look at the weapons of the Persians on the opposite side and their machinery.  They are all the work of those bastards!  If I don't die this time, when I return to the Tang Dynasty, I must ask Bai Qisi why he didn't put these people in the frying pan.  "

    "You mean, it will be extremely difficult for us this time. This Strait Castle was built by you and your boy supervisor. A large amount of cement was used here. The city walls are not made of bricks and stones, but large strips of stone. The nearby area is nearly a thousand miles away.  , there are no jungle natives anymore. They are all exhausted to build this Strait Castle. Why do you think the sharks in the Strait and the groups of crocodiles on the shore don't leave?

    Will such a city be conquered by them?  I don¡¯t believe it!  "Cheng Chumo looked at Ling Jing like an idiot, thinking that his professional honor had been insulted. If it were not Ling Jing, someone else would have slashed him in the head with a knife, and then he would have been charged with confusing the morale of the army.

    "Haha! No matter how strong the stone is, it will be exploded by gunpowder. No matter how strong the city gate is, it will eventually be burned by kerosene. Just like now, your cavalry is blocked in the city and cannot get out. A wall of fire,  It became an insurmountable obstacle.

    If there were not those things left by the Duke, I am afraid that this time you, Duke Lu, would have to give away the white-haired people to the black-haired people.  "

    "Then why don't you quickly use those things and let the Persians set up camp here?" Cheng Chumo was so angry that he almost drew his knife. Those things were the property of the academy and were controlled by Ling Jing.  My own orders are not enough to use those gadgets.

    "Ha! You know secret weapons, they are called secret weapons. That's because these things should be used at the most critical moments!

    What happened to letting those Persians set up camp?  Isn't this great?  Let them remove everything from the ship and build a strong fort.  It can't be done in three to five days!

    We are just procrastinating now, as long as we can procrastinate one day at a time.  Time is on our side, and the airship reporting the news has already flown to Yazhou.  As long as the fleet knows the news, it will definitely come as soon as possible.

    "Tell me, just with those Persian sailing ships, will they be the opponent of Datang?"  At that time, these Persians will have a fortified city in front of them and the sea behind them.  The sea is still full of our fleet!  Tell me, do they have any other options besides starving to death or surrendering?  Young people only grow muscles but not brains.  How could Duke Lu have such a great reputation all his life and raise such a good guy like you?  "

    "Look at what you said, how can I be as bad as you!" Cheng Chumo was scolded but was not angry.  But it's a bit regretful. It seems that the battlefield is a really good place to play tricks.  If you want to fight with real swords and guns, why is it so difficult?

    PS: Today¡¯s writing is a bit messy, and I want to vent my anger.  When I was having lunch today, I met a person who was not good at anything when it came to China, but was good at everything when it came to foreign countries.

    I really hate this kind of person, what he said is extremely selfish.  He is definitely the kind of person who will control the flood after I die. His being an official will be a disaster for the people, and the harm will be far greater than those of corrupt officials.

    Finally, I shamelessly ask for some recommendation votes for "Tiger of Liaodong".  Thanks!  thanks for your support!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
