After arranging the two of them out, Bai Yutian called Jing Ling again.
Although Jing Ling is young, he already possesses a brave spirit. His strength and leadership ability are no less than those of Jing Zhao. He is a natural general.
"Jing Ling, I give you an important task." Bai Yutian said calmly.
Hearing that it was an important task, Jing Ling looked serious and respectfully waited for the assignment.
"I have previously sent Zhao Zhen to lead an army of 20,000 to sneak into Liangzhou, preparing to attack Shan Nu's food and salary transportation and make them disorderly. Now, you lead an army to support Zhao Zhen and attack Shan Nu from the rear.
."
Shan Nu previously planned to surround Da Zhou from Chen City, but now Bai Yutian also plans to directly surround Shan Nu from the rear and catch turtles in an urn.
"Yes." Jing Ling accepted the order directly and said firmly.
Having been captured by Shan Nu before and tortured, now is the time for revenge, and Jing Ling's anger urgently needs to be vented.
After the arrangements were made, the Zhou army divided into three groups, left Luanxi City and headed to Liangzhou to regain the city.
Bai Yutianze, Xiao Li, Jingzhao and others led the main force of the army to pursue the main force of Shanu's army, chasing Cui Shou and others into Luohualiushui and fled all the way.
Within three days, An Chuhe, Yin Xi, Zhang Ci and others received good news. The march went smoothly and many cities along the way were recovered.
Although there was some resistance from Shannu in the process, most of them were small-scale armies and did not pose a threat to them.
Jing Ling also sneaked into Shan Nu's rear and joined Zhao Zhen, causing a serious blow to Shan Nu's rear and even forcing Shan Nu to change direction.
In the end, three armies encircled and surrounded Shanu in Tiantai Mountain in Liangzhou.
This mountain is the largest mountain in Liangzhou, with more than a dozen peaks. It has an advantageous geographical location and steep terrain, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Bai Yutian planned to completely wipe out this Shannu army in Liangzhou this time, without giving them any chance.
Although these soldiers are all from the Rock Tribe, which is only one of the four major tribes of the Shanu Kingdom, if all these soldiers are wiped out, it will still cause a heavy blow to the Shanu Kingdom, and even make the Shanu have no ability or confidence to invade in the short term.
Great Zhou.
At noon, Bai Yutian, under the protection of Dian Wei and others, went to the dense forest not far from the foot of the mountain with Jing Zhao, Xiao Li and others to observe the situation of the mountain and the surrounding environment.
In order to better observe, Bai Yutian also specially selected a local from the remnants of the Xiliang Army to introduce the terrain and conditions here.
It has to be said that the place chosen by Shanu's army this time was very good. Although they did not choose any city, they occupied this mountain and left Bai Yutian and others helpless.
If the Zhou army rushes into the mountains, even if they have a numerical advantage, facing the complex terrain and dense forests, not only will their combat effectiveness be greatly reduced, but they will also be defeated by Shannu one by one, resulting in heavy losses.
And all they can do now is to surround the mountain and not give Shanu any chance to escape.
Shanu previously lived in the deserts and barren mountains of the west, where the climate was harsh and the environment was dangerous. Therefore, Shanu not only developed an overall warlike character, but was also particularly good at fighting in complex terrain.
When they occupied Liangzhou before, Shannu had sent troops here to surprise the surrounding cities and caught the Xiliang army by surprise.
Coupled with the information about the traitors in the Xiliang army, Shannu's capture of Liangzhou became even smoother.
Shanu gathered hundreds of thousands of people, broke them into pieces, and hid in Tiantai Mountain.
"Your Majesty, we can only surround the main exits of Mount Tiantai now, trap them, and then wait for the opportunity to fight Shanu."
Xiao Li thought for a moment and then said.
Although this is not the best way, given the current situation, I am afraid it is the only way.
Bai Yutian also nodded. They still underestimated the courage of Shanu's army and actually went straight into the mountains. Even though the conditions were harsh, the terrain did have an advantage.
In fact, Shan Nu was so condescending that even if Dazhou wanted to attack, there was nothing he could do.
Therefore, Bai Yutian could only order everyone to take control of the main exits of Tiantai Mountain, and then surround Tiantai Mountain.
When Bai Yutian returned to the military camp, there happened to be someone coming from Tailin, who was from Tiangongyuan, and came here just to report the news to Bai Yutian.
Bai Yutian quickly met this person and saw a middle-aged man in coarse linen clothes walking in. Bai Yutian recognized this person. This person was called Li Zhengkang. He was one of the main members of Tiangongyuan and also participated in the musketry.
Make.
Previously, Shen Yuxing had introduced this person to Bai Yutian. In addition to Shen Yuxing, there were also scientific and technical personnel in Tailin City who were focused on the royal family.
"Your Majesty, I finally see you." Li Zhengkang said excitedly.
He first came to Xuzhou, but Bai Yutian had already set off from Xuzhou and arrived in Liangzhou, so he rushed to Liangzhou non-stop.
As a result, Bai Yutian regained the lost city all the way and came to the vicinity of Tiantai Mountain, and he followed him here.
"Li Zhengkang, what are you doing here?" Bai Yutian asked doubtfully.
"Your Majesty." Li Zhengkang looked at Bai Yutian happily, with uncontrollable excitement on his face, "The artillery that Your Majesty requested to develop has now been developed, and was tested by Dean Shen himself. It is astonishingly powerful, comparable to thunder.
"
Although Li Zhengkang is older than Shen Yuxing, he is both from Tiangongyuan, so he deeply understands the gap between himself and Shen Yuxing.
This person is an open-minded person and knows that wise people come first, so he respects Shen Yuxing very much.
The power of this test artillery shocked Li Zhengkang even more. With these weapons, I am afraid that the Great Zhou Dynasty will dominate the world and completely rewrite the previous war situation.
When he learned that the structural principles of artillery and muskets were all proposed by Bai Yutian, he was filled with admiration and shock for Bai Yutian.
Before, he thought Bai Yutian was just an incompetent and weak emperor, who knew he could be so wise.
Bai Yutian was also very happy after hearing what Li Zhengkang said. If he hadn't seen Li Zhengkang today, he would have almost forgotten about it.
With the addition of artillery, attacking Tiantai Mountain will become very easy.
Xiao Li, Jingzhao and others on the side were puzzled. They had never heard of artillery. As for the power Li Zhengkang said was astonishing, comparable to thunder, they felt it was a bit exaggerated.
Manpower is limited, and even those who are powerful are still not enough to face the power of God. How can there be weapons that can be as powerful as thunder?
"Quick, let Shen Yuxing work hard to transport this object to the battlefield as soon as possible." Bai Yutian said eagerly, his eyes filled with impatience.
Li Zhengkang bowed slightly and said: "Dean Shen knew the importance of this item, so he sent ten artillery pieces without His Majesty's permission. They are on their way now."
"I'm here to take the first step and use the power of artillery for Your Majesty."
