Take the mall to Datang

"Got it." Yuan Shan said.

There is a large group of people behind him, and Du Qianyu is among them, discussing the attack plan with Xue Rengui, Su Dingfang and others.

Du Qianyu was dressed in a battle armor with a Tang sword hanging on his waist, full of heroic spirit.

"Have you discussed it? There is still an hour." Yuan Shan said.

"Don't worry, Chief Governor, let's study it in Rongrong." Du Qianyu said.

Yuan Shan shook his head, thinking to continue researching, and you can only stay on the boat.

Zhou Ru came back to the ship building and said, "General Governor, the firearms are all ready." Zhou Ru said.

"Okay, let the soldiers not be nervous and be mentally prepared." Yuan Shan said.

"Your subordinates obey." Zhou Ru replied immediately.

"Hahaha, so what if the address in Goguryeo is dangerous, I, Old Cheng, will kill him right away." Cheng Zhijie said loudly on the deck of the ship, raising his momentum.

Yuan Shan sat in the boat building and asked, "What is General Cheng doing dancing around outside?"

Putting an embarrassment on his face, this General Cheng must be bragging about what he can do with his temperament, but can he say that, so he replied: "General Cheng is trying to boost morale."

"It seems that you know him quite well. Why don't you go over to help him and boost morale together, otherwise General Cheng looks a bit weak." Yuan Shan said lightly.

Putting an end to his face changing, if he really went, he would not let the sailors on the ship laugh, and said decisively: "General Cheng is better at this kind of thing, so the subordinates will not participate in it, so as not to disturb General Cheng's elegance."

"There's nothing wrong with you." Yuan Shan said.

"The governor still has orders." Put an end to changing the subject.

"Let the soldiers rest for a while. Now is not the time to be tense. Also, check the condition of the firearms and ammunition again. Don't take it lightly." Yuan Shan instructed.

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." Du Jue said immediately.

The ship is coming soon, Su Dingfang and other talents will make the plan.

"Governor, our backup plan." Su Dingfang brought the plan over and said.

"Please explain in detail." Yuan Shan said casually.

Su Dingfang immediately began to talk about their plan.

At this time, Li Shimin was sitting on the Taizong, looking forward to it. He had been discussing the attack plan with all the generals on the ship tower.

Tian Yuan was thinking about whether the plan they said would work or not. It seems that the role of warships is not just for transporting troops and horses.

An hour later.

The defenders of Beisha City in Goguryeo saw Tang’s treasure ships. It was not the first time they saw them, because merchant ships often came by, but today was different. There were twelve large ships when they came, followed by dozens of medium-sized merchant ships. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like you're here to do business.

The defenders immediately sent a message and entered a state of combat readiness.

Then hurry up and report to Yuan Gai Suwen.

The power of the battleship can be seen from the momentum of the lineup.

The two ships Xiaolong and Jiaolong were already sideways at the front, and their muzzles were already aimed at the shore.

Yuan Shan paid close attention to the situation on the shore in the ship building.

With a wave of the flag, all the fleet behind them began to wave their semaphore.

Li Shimin came out from the ship tower.

Surrounded by a group of generals.

"Your Majesty, the semaphore for landing came from the Xiaolong." Tian Yuan explained from the side.

Then I saw medium-sized merchant ships begin to bypass the big ship and start moving soldiers towards the shore, but the treasure ship didn't mean to approach at all. In fact, they were to cover the soldiers who landed.

On the Xiaolong, the observers began to send out messages, and soon saw the observers send out signals, and the enemy soldiers had already begun to organize their troops to prevent Tang soldiers from landing.

"Come here, give me an order to test fire three times in a row." Yuan Shan said.

Through the sound transmission tube of the ship building, the person in charge of the firearms room immediately issued an order.

In less than a minute, the Snapdragon opened fire.

"Boom boom boom..."

There was a slight shake on the treasure ship, and the sound of artillery came and went to attack one after another.

The defenders who had just arrived in Beisha City didn't even react. They saw the sand, stones and trees around them shattered and exploded, dust was flying, and debris was flying around.

Immediately stunned.

Three out of ten of the soldiers who rushed over began to retreat one after another.

Merchant ships are small in size and can reach the shore in shallow water. The small boats brought by towing are now all in use.

Then from a few hundred people to a few thousand people began to land one after another. The first 200 people who went ashore were in charge of guarding. It was not until all the thousands of soldiers and horses had landed that a 200-man cavalry was sent out to check.

The landing time is relatively long. It took 8 people a day and a night to reach the shore, and the transportation of materials will be needed later, which will take even longer.

Three days later, Tang Guo soldiers and horses were already standing outside Beisha City.

Yuan Shan went ashore, he was a real governor, he was not good at leading troops to fight, but he had super-level generals like Su Dingfang and Xue Rengui under his command, so he gave up his hand and told them to act arbitrarily.

The five thousand soldiers and horses on the Xiaolong are all commanded by them personally.

In order to attack Beisha City, two cannons were dismantled from the fleet. The huge caliber and heavy weight required ten horses to pull them on the ground.

The soldiers and horses of the Tang State had just opened their posture and wanted to continue to study the next strategy. In fact, they wanted to ask Li Shimin for instructions. At this moment, the cannon sounded.

"Boom~"

There was a burst of artillery sound, one after another.

Li Shimin asked in person, "What's going on?"

Zhang Liang came over and said, "Your Majesty, it is Yuan Dadu's people who are bombarding Beisha City, and they seem to want to make a gap."

"Nonsense, why are we firing cannons before we start attacking the city? Where did their artillery come from?"

Li Shimin asked suddenly.

"This..." Zhang Liang hesitated.
