Chapter 183 Geshu Han Enters the Stage

"Can your generals really capture Daoshan Castle?"

Li Rusong was a little worried about the Shimayama Castle that Kato Kiyomasa was defending to the death, so Li Qian recommended himself, which made Li Rusong hesitate a little.

Li Rusong was going to take command himself, but Li Qian requested that Geshu Han be appointed as the chief commander. If the decision was wrong, the Ming army would be doomed.

"If you fail to take Daoshan City within three days, I will bring my head to you."

Li Qian predicted that Toyotomi Hideyoshi's Japanese army would surround the Ming army on all sides in three days. If they could not capture Shimayama Castle within three days, defeat would be inevitable.

He could not lose to his daily life at all costs, so Li Qian simply issued a military order.

"Okay, I believe you."

Perhaps because Li Qian had saved Li Rusong's life, Li Rusong trusted Li Qian very much, so he decided to let Geshu Han lead the troops.

"This battle may cost more than 500,000 casualties, is that correct?"

To unleash the effect of Geshu Han's god-level characteristic "Western Massacre of Stone Fort", one must continue to fight and pay a terrible price.

The more casualties your side suffers, the higher the attack power of the soldiers attacking the city.

Li Qian estimated that it would take at least 500,000 casualties to capture the island city within three days.

"At this point, there is no other choice."

Li Rusong acquiesced that he could bear the loss.

A merciful army is not suitable for generals. If you want to quickly capture Daoshan Castle, you can't do so by paying only a small price.

The Ming army began to gather under the city of Daoshan.

Geshu Han serves as the main general, and the main general's halo "Geshu carries a knife at night" spreads to the Ming army under the city. The Ming army soldiers covered by the general's halo have attack power +10%, critical strike rate +10%, dodge rate +5%, movement speed +5%, and the damage caused to aliens +14%.

As the lord, Li Qian could not serve as deputy general, so Li Qian let Tachibana Ginchiyo serve as deputy general. Tachibana Ginchiyo's military general aura and Geshu Han's military general aura effects overlapped. On the basis of the above effects, the Ming army's attacks were accompanied by lightning, which could paralyze the enemy.

Li Qian served as the commander-in-chief of the army from Tiance Town, and Li Xiuning served as the deputy commander.

The Eastern Han lord players led their elite troops and assembled at the foot of Daoshan City, with flags flying and murderous intent in the air.

The legion of Emperor Yuan, the lord of Bingzhou, had elite heavy cavalrymen named Tie Futu who dismounted and fought on foot. They were wearing three layers of heavy armor, holding iron caltrops in their hands, and looked ferocious and evil.

Jin Wushu carried a dragon-tail and phoenix-head axe and looked towards Daoshan Castle with a fierce look, full of disdain for the Japanese army.

When the Jurchens rose to power, they swept across the Liao Dynasty and the Northern Song Dynasty and were invincible. The only thing they felt a little frustrated about was that they encountered Yue Fei in the early stage and Mongolia in the later stage.

It is normal that Jin Wushu looked down on the Japanese army.

Shi Jingsi in white robe holding a spear and riding a horse, looks like Zhao Zilong of Changshan.

The Qing Emperor's Legion. The Qing Emperor has an arrogant attitude of a empress, like a cold beauty. She has a large number of generals under her command, the most conspicuous of whom is a female strategist in white.

In addition, there are a large number of players following Qingdi.

Qingdi subdued tens of thousands of foot soldiers to replenish his troops. This time when he attacked Shimayama Castle again, Qingdi still relied on these foot soldiers to gain military merits for himself.

Beside Xiao Lingxue, the heroine Hua Mulan held a knife and prepared to attack first with other Liangzhou army generals.

In this battle, Xiao Lingxue appointed Zhou Yafu, a famous general of the Western Han Dynasty, as his deputy general, and he himself served as the main general. Hua Mulan and other generals served as the vanguard generals. The Gaoliang River God of Chariots brought two fierce generals, Yang Ye and Yang Liulang, who were invincible with golden swords, and the murderous aura of a row of Huoshan Army soldiers surged.

In addition to the lord players, the free players in the Ming army camp were no less powerful. A group of players with the highest military power stood up and formed a death squad.

Xue Jingnan, a player who got a lot of rare blueprints for Li Qian, joined the death squad carrying a Fang Tian Hua Ji.

In addition to Xue Jingnan, there are also some players who are not well-known at ordinary times, who stepped forward at this time.

Most of them are players who have obtained the fierce general template.

Although the first-tier players can only unlock the third-stage general template at most, the basic force of some players has exceeded 80, and even a few players can exceed 90.

In the bloody battle of Daoshan Castle, there is a possibility of death and receiving death penalty.

But in order to win the national war, these players have no time to protect themselves.

Li Qian's arrangement for attacking Daoshan City was simple and unpretentious. After the Ming army had consumed as many defenders as possible, he sent an assault team composed of fierce generals, elite soldiers, and elite players to capture Daoshan City in one go.

Hundreds of thousands of Ming troops gathered at the foot of Shimayama Castle. The defenders of Shimayama Castle realized that the Ming army was about to launch the most brutal offensive, so at the urging of Kato Kiyomasa and other defenders, they regrouped, moved stones, wood, arrows, and gunpowder, and prepared to continue to defend Shimayama Castle.

There are still millions of soldiers defending Shimayama Castle. The Japanese army is gathering in the castle to guard any blind spots.

The Japanese players had headbands with the words "Victory" tied on their foreheads and held samurai swords in their hands. They were scattered on the walls of San-no-maru, Ninomaru, and Honmaru.

Due to the high altitude terrain of Shimayama Castle, the Ming army had to face attacks from the three sides of the city walls of Sannomaru, Ninomaru, and Honmaru when attacking Sannomaru from above.

The Ming army had to capture the Honmaru in one go, otherwise once the battle was called off, the Japanese army would recapture Sannomaru.

"Begin the siege!"

Geshu Han led a million Ming troops, and the tiger squat cannons of the Shenji Camp roared, marking the beginning of the Second Battle of Daoshan City!
The Ming army archers fired in unison, and the rain of arrows covered the sky. The scene of a volley of hundreds of thousands of arrows was so grand that even lord players like Li Qian were shocked.

The scale of the Battle of Shimayama Castle was unprecedented.

During the two battles of Shimayama Castle, the Ming army built a batch of siege equipment, and large siege equipment such as ladders and siege towers were moved towards Shimayama Castle. Ming archers used rain of arrows to cover the Ming infantry as much as possible to approach Sannomaru.

Arrows and cannons were fired from the island mountain castle, and rocks and logs were rolling down. The Ming army could only attack this impregnable mountain castle while braving the rocks, logs, arrows and bullets falling from overhead.

Thousands of Ming soldiers were killed under Daoshan City, with corpses piled up like mountains and blood flowing like rivers.

Players like Li Qian, Emperor Yuan, Emperor Qing, Xuanyuan, Xiao Lingxue, Jiang Zuo Meilang, etc. felt their scalps tingling when they saw this.

Daoshan City was simply a meat grinder. Under the command of Geshu Han, the Ming army continued to risk their lives to attack Daoshan City regardless of the cost.

In fact, facing such a solid mountain city, the only way left is to attack it by force, except for a long siege.

The defenders of Daoshan Castle had prepared food and water in advance and could hold out for a while. If they wanted to capture Daoshan Castle within three days, they had to use a forceful attack.

As more and more Ming soldiers were killed, Geshu Han's characteristic "Western Massacre of Stone Fortress" was triggered, and the attack power of the siege soldiers became higher and higher, from +50% at the beginning to 55%, 60%, 65%, 70%...

The Japanese troops in Shimayama Castle were surprised to find that despite the Ming army's wave after wave of attacks, their morale not only did not decline, but became increasingly fierce.

The Ming army's offensive continued during the day. When night fell, the Japanese army in Daoshan Castle thought that the Ming army would call off the attack, but they did not expect that Geshu Han had replaced a group of Ming troops at night and continued the siege, as if there would be no end.
