Chapter 489 Attacking the Tsarist Kingdom
Chapter 489: Attacking the Tsar Kingdom
Hua Rong had already known that the Tsar Kingdom had sneaked into the border town of Liang State, and he was also very angry, but without Wu Tian's order, he did not dare to mobilize his army to the Tsar Kingdom for revenge.
Just when he didn't know how to deal with this matter, Liu Tang ran in happily, knelt in front of him, handed him a letter and said, "Master, at this time, the urgent letter sent by His Majesty."
Hearing this, Hua Rong felt that the situation was serious. When he opened the letter, he felt happy.
"Liu Tang, Your Majesty said in the letter that since the Tsar Kingdom has sneaked into our Liang Kingdom, then our Liang Kingdom will be polite to him. Let us lead the army immediately and first capture several cities of the Tsar Kingdom, and then continue with the next plan."
When Liu Tang heard this, he was ready to beat his hands and said happily: "King, I have been waiting for this order for a long time. If we don't even dare to fight back, how can we stay here in the future if we lead 50,000 vanguard troops to fight first."
As he said that, Liu Tang was about to leave, but was stopped by Hua Rong.
"Don't rush to leave first. We have to discuss this matter. Although Your Majesty asked us to occupy several cities in the Tsar Kingdom, he did not say where to occupy it. This is to give us the initiative. Therefore, we must win this battle so that we can get a good omen, and secondly, we can set an example for our brothers."
Liu Tang touched his head and smiled awkwardly.
"The king made sense, I was negligent. Then you think, we should capture the cities of the Tsarist Kingdom?"
Hua Rong ordered people to take the map up, open it and take a closer look, and finally his eyes fell on the three cities of Ala City, Maye City and Tuni City opposite Yunhai City.
"Liu Tang, you see, these three cities are very close to us, and it is also the main channel to enter the eastern part of the Tsar Kingdom. If we occupy these three cities and defend them, the army of the Later Sequence can attack the eastern part of the Tsar Kingdom along here."
Hua Rong pointed to the map and said.
Liu Tang looked at the distance between the three cities on the map, each with a distance of ten kilometers. If there is an emergency, it is a good choice to connect with each other in a short time.
"Okay, we will conquer these three cities."
"Well, I will give you another 100,000 troops to give you enough troops to capture the city. In addition, it will be equipped with 700 red-clothed cannons and 300 howitzers. This will allow you to fight quickly."
Liu Tang nodded. Now he has 150,000 troops and thousands of cannons in his hands. It is no problem to capture these three cities.
...
After Soningsi massacred the border towns of Liang State, he returned to the Tsar and reported the matter to the Tsar.
The Tsar also replied to him, asking him to monitor Liang's actions well and implement them according to the original plan.
Just as Suoningsi was about to send spies out of the city, he suddenly heard a loud noise.
Then a soldier ran in, knelt in front of him and kowtowed, "Deputy General, no, Liang General Liu Tang led 150,000 troops and with the assistance of thousands of artillery, he had already broken through Ala City. Now they are heading straight for Maye City."
As soon as he finished speaking, another soldier hurried in and knelt in front of Suoningsi: "Deputy General, it's not good. Ma Yecheng was captured by the Liang army. Now they are heading straight to Tunicheng!"
Suoningsi was surprised. He originally thought that the Liang Kingdom would capture small border cities at most, but he did not expect that they would capture the big city with one move, and it was the main road leading to the eastern region. If these places were occupied by the Liang Kingdom, they could follow the avenue and fight westward to enter the eastern core region in the future.
Thinking of this, Suoningsi was sweating coldly on his back.
He began to feel that the Tsar's decision to anger Liang was very stupid.
But now is not the time to blame this. He is the highest commander in the eastern region. He should be responsible for this matter now. If he can handle this matter well, it may cause greater unrest!
"Hurry up, gather the troops and follow me to see."
Suoningsi issued a transfer order, and except for the 100,000 troops in his headquarters, not many people responded.
Although he is currently the supreme commander of the eastern region, the generals in the millions of troops only obey the general's orders and mobilize the army as deputy general, and are not qualified or positioned enough.
Soningsi was anxious, and Istan led his 100,000 troops to join him at this time.
"Luckily Istan is here. If you don't come, I don't know what to do."
Istan smiled and said, "I know that after you take action, Liang State will definitely take revenge, so he summoned all the troops in our department in advance and prepared to take action. We have no way to mobilize other troops, and now we are only two of you and me. Our department has 150 artillery pieces, and you should have 150 of them anywhere. We will gather our 300 artillery pieces to fight against Liu Tang."
"Although it is not guaranteed that Liu Tang can be driven out, it should not be a big problem to stop him from entering the Tsar Kingdom."
Sonings nodded and immediately led his troops to Tuni City with Istan.
At this time, Liu Tang was leading a large army to gather under Tuni City.
The guards on the castle had already died when they were attacked by the first artillery, and the remaining soldiers were hiding in the rocks led by the young general Cartier.
Seeing that they resisted so tenaciously, Liu Tang was even more excited.
"Concentrate artillery, blow the castle gate open for me, and then rush in and occupy the castle!"
The soldiers of Liang State loaded all the red-clothed cannons and howitzers with ammunition and aimed at the castle.
After another round of artillery attack, Tu Nicheng will definitely not be able to defend it.
Cartier also knew very well that this time there was no way to stick to anything he said.
At this moment, a spy ran to Liu Tangma, knelt down and bowed and said, "General, Tsarist Deputy General Soningsi and side general Istan led an army of 200,000 and 300 artillery pieces from the east to support Tuni City. We are still ten miles away from us."
When Liu Tang heard Su Ningsi's name, his eyes suddenly emitted a strong murderous aura.
He sneered: "Okay, this culprit is here to come to his door, so I can't find him."
"Your general Huang Xin, you command half of the men and five hundred artillery here to continue attacking Tuni City. I personally lead the other half of the men and five hundred artillery to fight Suoningsi."
Huang Xin nodded.
Liu Tang divided half of his troops and five hundred artillery pieces to head straight to the east of Tuni City, and occupied the high ground to build military positions and artillery settings before Suoningsi.
By the time Sonings and Istan arrived, their advantage had been lost and their troops were also very tired.
