In the first year of Guangxi, September 16th, evening.

Four thousand Han troops defeated the 30,000 elite "Han Tu Army" from Xianbei in the east.

In this battle, the Han army killed nearly 10,000 enemies and captured 50,000 prisoners at the cost of more than 1,000 casualties. About 6,000 Xianbei people fled in panic.

This battle made the tribes in Eastern Xianbei feel frightened and did not dare to act rashly.

Wang Fu led more than 10,000 surrendered troops and thundered down from the north. Kebi Neng's entire army was destroyed, and Daijun Shanggu fell into Lu Bu's hands.

After learning the news, the two Xianbei branches once again had serious differences.

The next day, Chi Zai took Murong Mohuba and Liaodong Xianbei to move to Danhan Mountain, but Suli sent an envoy to beg Guan Yu for peace.

In Xianbei, the eastern and central part, the dust has basically settled.

Zhang Liao and Zhang Yang have also formed a situation of encircling the Budugen Group.

After receiving news of the defeat of Kebineng and Xianbei in the east, Bu Dugen lost the courage to fight against the Han army and had to send envoys to sue for peace.

For Suli and Budugen, there is no shame in surrendering to power.

Having no pastures, cattle and sheep is the biggest shame of the nomads!

"Afraid of power but not morality, these barbarians finally gave in!"

Xu You lamented that the situation had changed so quickly, and the fruits of victory seemed unreal.

Guan Yu sneered.

"Now, I want to see what Ding Yuan and Gongsun have to say?"

Xu You also narrowed his eyes and smiled sinisterly: "You can still live if you do evil in heaven. If you do evil on your own, then let's go to the underworld as a whole family!"

In Xiangping City, Liaodong Province, Gongsun Du was in a panic.

Qiu Liju looked at Lelang, and Zhang He took Goguryeo lightly. On the one hand, he warned Liaodong and on the other hand, he intimidated Fuyu.

The most important thing is that those hundreds of thousands of people who cowarded Xianbei were defeated by thousands of people. Who would believe it?

There is also the insidious villain Ding Yuan, who encouraged himself to occupy western Liaoning. Now that Guan Yu has conquered the grassland, he retreated to Zhuojun and pretended to be a dead dog.

Isn’t this putting yourself on the fire?

In the garden pavilion, drinking weak wine and holding a long sword in his hand, Gongsun Du sighed.

Guan Yu didn't say anything, but Xu Youxu's reputation was so notorious that Gongsun Du, who was known as a ruthless man, felt numb.

Although the troops have been withdrawn from western Liaoning, Xu You has already spoken out.

"I will make sure Gongsun Xiaoer's family is in order!"

If I don’t die, my family will definitely be doomed.

The sword, raised and put down many times, has been the only way to die in hardship since ancient times.

Only then did Gongsun Du realize that he was actually a coward who was afraid of death.

Previously, it was precisely because of the cowardice in my heart that I would crazily take revenge on my enemies and use the heads of enemies who were not as powerful as myself to frighten others.

A truly fearless person will disdain cruelty and killing.

"Father!"

Gongsun Du turned around and looked at a young girl with a graceful figure. She was dressed in plain clothes and had blond hair and blue eyes. She was so beautiful.

"Mingzhu, what's the matter?"

Gongsun Mingzhu was born from a concubine in the Western Regions, bringing together the best of Gongsun Du and his beautiful concubine. She has fair skin, long legs, and a quick mind.

"Father, are you worried about General Xu?"

Gongsun Du's expression condensed, and then he burst into laughter.

"My father conquered Buyeo, suppressed the three Koreas, forced Goguryeo, and expanded the East China Sea. Why should I worry about my little Xu Pifu? Don't listen to the nonsense of the servants. Don't worry, it will be fine."

Gongsun Mingzhu smiled slightly and said: "My father is a man of great talent and strategy, and he is a great man in this world. Naturally, he is admired by thousands of people. My daughter has taken the liberty of making a merciless request!"

After saying that, he knelt down and bowed to the ground.

"Eh! What's wrong with you kid? If you have anything to do, just tell my father, even if you bring me the moon in the sky for the Pearl!"

Gongsun Mingzhu still didn't get up, and said loudly: "My daughter admires the king of the dynasty very much, and is willing to be my concubine as a slave. I ask my father to do it!"

"Hoo!"

Gongsun Du stood up suddenly, clenched his palms into fists, and shouted sternly: "Mingzhu! You...you, why are you doing this?"

Gongsun Mingzhu burst into tears: "My daughter has nothing to ask for, please help her parents."

September 17, Dongdu.

The morning light of dawn shines on this magnificent city, and the magnificent colors are full of blood.

Outside Yongmen, behind the earth barrier, ten Thunder God-1 artillery pieces were lined up in a row, with their black muzzles aimed at the head of Yongmen City.

Thirty thousand Liangzhou cavalry lined up in formation, with flags like a forest and armor like snow.

Clean the barrel, load the gunpowder bag, insert the fuse, and load the iron bullet.

The lieutenant of the Liangzhou Artillery Corps reported loudly: "Commander, the artillery troops are in position, please give instructions!"

Dong Zhuo held a telescope, looked at ten cannons of the same type at the top of the city, and asked: "Are you sure you can kill those cannons?"

The Colonel of the Artillery Corps immediately replied loudly: "Please rest assured, Commander, the general will only need half a base to destroy them all!"

According to the artillery drill of the Yong Army, a Lei Gong Type 1 artillery has a base ammunition of forty rounds.

Dong Zhuo nodded, looked at Zhao Yun specifically, and asked: "Zilong, can the city defense artillery destroy my artillery?"

Zhao Yun can be said to be an artillery expert, and critical parts of artillery drills are derived from his practical experience.

For example, anti-artillery fortifications can effectively avoid the threat of artillery at the city head.

"Go back to Mu, if you are lucky, we should be able to destroy three or four artillery pieces of the Liangzhou Artillery Army at the top of the city."

Dong Zhuo was relieved and ordered the artillery officer: "Let's start!"

The artillery officer immediately raised the red flag and shouted: "Fire!"

He Jin and Lu Wei were also at the top of Yongmen City, using binoculars to observe the dynamics of the Liangzhou artillery force.

Seeing the red flag raised, He Jin was stunned.

Lu Wei ignored the ban and immediately ordered a reciprocal counterattack.

"Fire!"

So the world's first artillery battle began.

Logically speaking, both sides have the same type of artillery, and the difference lies in the training level of their respective artillery corps.

Of course, the city defense artillery is located higher and can hit farther, but the Liangzhou artillery army built defensive fortifications, which are similar to reverse slopes and have better safety.

As the saying goes, if the spear is sharp and the shield is strong, the win or loss will be 50-50.

But swords and guns have no eyes, and cannonballs have no eyes even more.

Some of the artillery shells fired by Liangzhou will be higher than the city wall and fall in the city, destroying residential buildings and killing and injuring people.

In short, except for the area protected by the city wall, there is no safe place in the west of the Eastern Capital City.

The Liangzhou artillery army used a concentrated fire tactic, concentrating five artillery pieces and bombing the city wall below the city defense cannon.

After dozens of shots were fired, the city defense gun emplacements either collapsed or tilted, making it impossible to effectively damage the Liangzhou Army.

Soon, four of the city defense guns were dismantled, while Liangzhou only lost one gun position.

As the artillery battle became more and more intense, the remaining six city defense guns had no choice but to deal with being passively bombed.

When the Liangzhou army really started to attack the city, Yuan Ji, Jiuchang Shi, He Jin and many officials were already aware of the seriousness of the problem.

Guard Zhang Xi secretly left the city from Xiamen and went straight to Dong Zhuo.

After the meeting, Zhang Xi, representing the imperial court, asked Dong Zhuo why he attacked Dongdu? Did he want to rebel?

Dong Zhuo smiled and replied: "The emperor summoned me to be King Qin, but someone actually deliberately blocked it. I had no choice but to give an edict to Qingjun. Zhang Weiwei, why can't I ask for an explanation?"

Zhang Xiyu wanted to say something, but Dong Zhuo frowned and reprimanded: "If you keep making noises, don't blame the sword for being disadvantageous!"

The two "horse thieves" immediately jumped out and pulled the dignified guard aside to hold him down so as not to hinder the commander from watching the battle.

"Boom! Crash!"

A section of the city wall could not withstand the bombardment and collapsed in half. The city defense artillery above and the artillery all collapsed.

Half of the Yongmen gun positions were lost, the city wall was crumbling, and the Liangzhou Army only had one gun position.

It can be seen from this that the Royal City Defense Artillery Corps was usually poorly trained and stretched thin during wartime.

The Eastern Capital City will soon fall into Dong Zhuo's hands.

But a fast horse came from the north of the city.
Chapter completed!
