Chapter 392 Defeated
By then, he would surely become an important member of the Persian nobility.
"General, I think we can capture Karachi in two or three days!"
Several deputy generals were also quite excited.
They would certainly be rewarded if they captured Karachi.
"Well, work harder these two days and try to capture Karachi as soon as possible. Then you will all be rewarded."
Jadeja also said with a smile on his face.
......
The next day, the sun rises.
The Persian army launched another attack.
Of course, the result is still the same.
After a whole day of attack, the Persian army still failed to capture Karachi.
The city of Karachi still stands!
However, the defenders looked more tired in today's battle and were almost defeated several times.
This situation made Jadya more confident, and he felt that Karachi would be captured in two days at most.
"Order to have an extra meal tonight and continue the siege tomorrow!"
"Yes, General!"
After Jadya finished speaking, the deputy general bowed and accepted the order.
The food in the army was obviously not very good, and Persia was no exception.
The Persian soldiers only had dry food and porridge every day, and they were already starving after days of fighting.
After hearing this order, the soldiers were of course very happy and their morale increased.
But they didn't know that this was their last dinner.
....…
late at night.
In the city of Karachi.
Fifty thousand Daqian soldiers were ready to go, with Xu Da at the front of the team, leading the attack.
Ning Quan and Xiao He were on the city wall, looking at the enemy camp.
At this moment, the Persian camp was brightly lit, but the camp was quiet.
It was midnight and the soldiers were all fast asleep.
"General Xiao, are you ready?"
After watching for a while, Ning Quan asked
"Your Majesty, everything is ready!"
“Very good, let’s get started!”
Ning Yuan nodded and looked towards the hill west of the city.
There was a coastal artillery position there, and it was also Ning Quan's reliance on completely annihilating the Persian army.
It took Ning Quan a full half month to move the coastal defense artillery.
"Yes."
Xiao He immediately accepted the order.
"Pass the order down, prepare to attack!"
"Order the artillery to fire."
Xiao He issued orders one after another.
Soon, the gates of Karachi were opened and the army in the city filed out.
At the same time, at the Xishan artillery position.
The black muzzles of the coastal defense artillery were also pointed at the enemy camp, and the soldiers were ready.
"fire!"
As the captain gave the order, boom!
Huge artillery shells whizzed towards the enemy camp.
The roar was deafening and the fire shot into the sky.
boom! boom! boom!
One shell after another hit the Persian camp, and the sound of explosions continued to ring out.
The power of 203mm artillery shells is extremely terrifying.
Even reinforced concrete buildings can be easily destroyed, not to mention the enemy camp full of tents.
Faced with the 203mm artillery shells, the Persians had no room for resistance at all.
"Ahhhh..."
Screams continued to be heard.
Corpses were thrown into the air.
Most of the corpses exploded directly, with blood and flesh flying everywhere, it was a horrific sight.
This scene terrified the Persian soldiers, who thought they were being punished by God.
Many Persian soldiers fled crying, while many others squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands, trembling.
Jadeja was also shocked by the scene before him.
“How is this possible?”
Jadeja turned pale and murmured.
He never dreamed that the enemy had such terrifying artillery."
At this time, the artillery fire continued.
boom! boom! boom!
The bodies of a large number of Persian soldiers were burning in the flames, screams were heard continuously, and bright red blood kept splashing, dyeing the entire camp red.
"Run away..."
“Run…”
“Ah, help me, I don’t want to die…”
......
Faced with such horrific artillery fire, the Persian soldiers quickly collapsed and let out desperate cries.
kill!"
Seeing this, Xu Da, who had been ready outside the city, narrowed his eyes, shouted loudly, and led his troops to rush towards the Persian army.
"kill!"
"kill!"
......
The army surged towards the Persian camp like a tide, as if the god of death had descended.
How could the Persian soldiers organize a counterattack at this time?
In just a few moments, the entire Persian camp was submerged in the tide of the army.
“Ahh…”
"kill......"
The Daqian soldiers hacked and killed frantically, beheading the Persian soldiers one by one.
"General, run! We are finished!"
Seeing this scene, several lieutenants hurriedly shouted to Jadya.
They were already terrified and trembling all over.
They didn't expect that the other party would have such a weapon.
At this moment, they have completely lost the courage to resist.
"Sound the horn, all troops retreat."
Jadeja gave the order in desperation.
"let's go."
Then Jadya turned around and quickly fled with several lieutenants and personal soldiers.
A personal soldier stayed behind to blow the bugle and convey the retreat order to the remaining soldiers.
But at this time the camp was already in chaos, so how could there be any order?
Upon hearing the trumpet sound, the Persian soldiers immediately fled in all directions.
More soldiers knelt down and surrendered.
But after only a moment, the Daqian army completely surrounded the Persian camp, and the Persian soldiers became birds in a cage.
Another half hour passed and the battle finally ended.
The entire Persian camp was in ruins, with corpses everywhere and blood flowing like a river. It was a miserable scene.
More soldiers were captured and held in the center of the camp.
"Your Majesty, we won,"
Looking at this scene, Xiao He said excitedly.
"Yeah, I won!"
Ning Quan also sighed.
"Your Majesty, now that both Persian reinforcements have been annihilated and the Arab Emperor has surrendered, should we attack Persia directly next?"
Xiao He said excitedly.
"Of course, that's what the Prime Minister and General Bai planned."
"With 700,000 elite troops gone, I wonder how Persia can withstand our advance!"
Ning Yuan snorted coldly.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Hearing this, Xiao He complimented.
"Haha, General Xiao, thank you for the compliment."
"Now that our army has won, let's hurry and clean up the battlefield, then rest for a few days and prepare for the upcoming action against Persia. Also, immediately notify the Prime Minister, General Bai, and others of the battle report.
"Yes."
Xiao He responded respectfully.
Afterwards, Xiao He ordered the soldiers to clean up the battlefield and quickly passed the news to Bai Qi and Zhuge Liang who was in charge of the capital.
........
The capital of Persia.
Persian Palace.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened."
A Persian general stumbled into the hall and said in panic.
"What's the matter? Tell me!"
The Persian emperor sitting in the main seat said with a grim expression.
"Your Majesty, General Jiadeya was defeated by Daqian and his entire army was annihilated."
The Persian general gasped.
"What? Jadeja lost?"
The Persian king's expression changed drastically.
"Yes, Your Majesty, the entire 300,000-man army was wiped out!"
The Persian general said bitterly.
