Chapter 235: Siege


The opposite of Chu State and Wuyue Puzhou is Nanju Prefecture.
Nanju Prefecture is densely sealed with monarchs, and the monarch's cronies Bai Luo occupy the city of Zhicheng.
This city is located in the upper reaches of the Pushui River, with mountains in the north and water in the south. In the east, the Shufeng Jun guards the group. It can be said to occupy a very advantageous location. The city has tens of thousands of troops stationed in it, which is also the insurance against Wu Yue.
If Urashang Fengjun fails or surrenders, Wu Yue invades, this place is the last line of defense.
Of course, in the original military discussion of the Puxi monarchs, there was no plan to provoke this behemoth at all.
They were satisfied that they could capture Shu Zongjun's title and plunder the food population.
Baizhishan Road.
The army rushed out. After the Baizhi Jun's fief, the leader increased his troops one after another. At this time, there were four thousand soldiers, plus the other three men of the monarch, the army was over ten thousand, boundless, black and heavy, bringing people powerful Of oppression.
Tens of thousands are still very different from the tens of thousands of troops.
At this time, whether marching or camping, there is a strong iron-blooded evil spirit and humane luck circling, which can ward off ghosts and gods.
After exiting the Baizhi Mountain Road, he entered Shu Zongjun's fief.
This is a battlefield for military strategists. Shu Zongjun built a beacon tower at the intersection, and there were sentinel checkpoints, and he set up camps on important traffic routes. There were not many guards. There were only dozens or hundreds of people. When the enemy army arrived, he immediately lit the beacon. Guarding the rear, another double-strike battle, holding weapons, desperately trying to buy time for the rear.
With a corner of the land, a hundred soldiers, resisting ten thousand people, it is no different from a dream.
"Flush!"
"dash forward!"
Nearly ten thousand troops were in the rear, Duan Yu mobilized Wu Chengjun to step forward and ordered Wudu to attack.
Yun Zhongwei was left by him as the warlord, and both the dragon and the snake and the water dragon were left and right wings.
The new pawns who have just been trained, have not seen blood, experienced battle, and will not be able to become an army after all.
It's just that if you face high-intensity battles in the first battle, you will easily suffer heavy casualties. This small offensive and defensive battle is just right for training.
Although the three Fengjun at the rear had plans to consume Wu Chengjun's strength, how did they know Duan Yu's mind?
The Xiaozhai checkpoint on this road just made Wu Chengjun's new soldiers take turns stepping forward and gaining some experience.
There is a cloud in the art of war, ten besieged. The army that has always attacked the city must be at least several times or even ten times that of the defending army, because the defender has a wall, condescending and occupying all the land.
But at this time the army came, with dozens or even a hundred times the advantage of soldiers. From a distance, the banners were like clouds and the halberds were like forests. They immediately suppressed the defensive force.
After half a day of killing, Cheng Jin came to report: "The lord, has broken through the camp and captured 51 people. Our side killed 17 people and suffered more than 30 serious injuries..."
"Goodness, keep going!"
This checkpoint is to block the front of the Baizhi Mountain Road. Afterwards, the defense is weakened, roughly the level of the post, until the city of Shu Zongjun.
Duan Yu ordered to march forward, all the way up again and again, and the army's soldiers pointed out that there was almost no enemy.
The surrounding villagers of Chu State, no matter the nationals or savages, avoided this scene, and some fled deep into the mountains.
As people on the border, they are accustomed to the war of harassment and have their own set of methods to save their lives.
It's just that tens of thousands of aggression is still rare, and I can't help but have some bad feelings.
On the third day, the army drove under the city of Shuzong.
This city is very large, the outer walls are four miles long, the walls are three feet high, and two feet thick, and there are six thousand households inside. Moreover, because of the previous beacon, Shu Zongjun was prepared to summon soldiers from all townships for defense and gathered two thousand five hundred. , The four doors are closed tightly and the defense is tight.
"This city is strong, and there are two thousand five hundred guards, and Jun Qu Xu will suffer a heavy loss!"
At the core of the 10,000-strong army, Bai Zhi and other Fengjun glanced at each other, and they all had the pleasure of trickery.
At this moment, seeing Duan Yu in uniform, they all squeezed out a smile, and stepped forward to greet: "Qu Xujun is so mighty, he has conquered cities and land, I will admire him!"
"Don't come to these imaginary ones!" Duan Yu's eyes stared: "It is said that the four siege of the city, our army has been a pioneer along the way, and it has been slightly damaged. You must get it this time?"
Bai Zhijun glanced coldly and saw that the generals behind Duan Yu looked upset. He knew that he could not do too much on his side, otherwise he would be anxious for the other party, he could go away, and even make a fire. Let Shu Zongjun read the joke.
Their real purpose this time was to attack the group's comfort zone, gain benefits, weaken King Qu Xu, but incidentally, they didn't even have the idea of ​​letting King Qu Xu die here.
Duan Yu also vaguely found out this attitude, and couldn't help but laugh secretly.
If it was him, he would definitely no matter what the three seven twenty one, first destroy the enemy and then talk about the follow-up, then consider the follow-up.
However, these monarchs are used to being aloof, but at the same time, they call themselves aristocrats, and even fight with the enemy. Even if they capture the leader, they try not to kill, and instead demand a ransom.
Said to be aristocratic, but in fact it is nothing but old age.
In other words, some unspoken rules have been formed?
Although this was inevitably brought about by the enfeoffment system, if Duan Yu was strong, his vassals would gradually do so, but at this time it was a stumbling block and naturally kicked away without hesitation.
"Never mind, the siege of the city is naturally the four of us taking turns."
After a glance at each other, Zhu Yuanfengjun smiled and said, "But for now, we have to set up a big camp first and have to make siege equipment!"
At the moment, the army found an open space to camp. Mr. Bai Zhi had read the military books, and he still had a very well-organized rule of the army. The battalions were separated by ravines, and the camps were also very strong. He also ordered craftsmen to rush to make siege equipment, a good pair of spare time. Looks like.
In fact, the same is true.
At this time, it was the planting season, and the Chu country's feudal princes had to summon the people of the country and conquer the army to help.
However, Shu Zongjun has a city, guards, and food. It shouldn't be a big problem to last a month.
...
On the third day, the siege began.
Accompanied by the sound of war drums, Yi's soldiers held their shields and marched forward in a rain of arrows.
First, the trenches outside the city are blocked, and then the ladder is immediately climbed up like a line of ants. This is called ants attached to the city.
The soldiers on the city kept shooting arrows down and down the boulders.
Occasionally, someone who climbed up the city wall was immediately stabbed by a spear from all directions, outnumbered, and plunged into a gourd, screaming and falling all the way.
"These armies, although they are not a mob, but that's it..."
Qin Feiyu looked at the audience very disdainfully.
"If you follow this method to attack the city, at least one month will be required. When the Shu Chao and Shu Bao reinforcements arrive, we will have to return without success, at most looting some villages along the way..."
In the past, the monarchs fought at this level.
"The soldiers of Quyi and Zhu Yuan are well equipped and not high in fighting spirit. Only the soldiers of Bai Zhi are courageous, but they have lost the military discipline..." Qin Feiyu glanced again and sighed.
"Flying fish, if you compare the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty, and even Yunzhongwei Jingzuo to them, they are naturally pale..." Duan Yu laughed.
The Kingdom of Qing is located in the Four World Wars, and Lu Shi is famous all over the world.
And these four coalition forces of tens of thousands, even Wu Yueguo is not even the first-class level, but the second-rate level, naturally it is not pleasing to the eye.
After chatting for a few sentences, I came to the topic: "How is the layout of the city?"
"Please rest assured, the lord, Wu Ji has already lived in Chu, learned Chu Yin, and has no flaws in pretending to be a merchant of the Qing Dynasty..." Qin Feiyu whispered solemnly: "His daughter stays in the fief, and we have our elite. There is no problem with loyalty if you accompany it. When the time comes, the inside and outside will be combined, and the city defense will be flawed. Of course... after a few days, the guards will be exhausted, the effect will be even better!"
"That's it!"
Duan Yu's jaw head.
In ancient times, if there were no weapons such as artillery, it would be extremely difficult to defeat the city. There were often examples of a hundred thousand army besieging the city for several years and still unable to break through. You must wait until there is a shortage of food in the city before it can collapse without fighting.
Because the city is strong and safe, the nearby population and wealth are constantly gathering in the city, but there is not much oil and water in the countryside.
If you want to make a fortune, you must break the city, but the casualties are heavy and unbearable.
In addition, the only way to make the city's defenders automatically surrender, or to buy spies, secretly offer the city.
Of course, this world has extraordinary power, yet it is different.
If Duan Yu wanted to break this city, he would only need to order Qin Feiyu to bring the hidden dragon and snake soldiers, rush for a wave regardless of casualties, and then cooperate with the army to attack the whole line, and it would be broken in one day.
But it can reduce damage, so why bother?
Duan Yu hid Yun Zhongwei in secret, only as a warlord and ordered Wu Chengjun to attack the city continuously.
After seven days, each family lost hundreds, and the defenders in the city were also exhausted.
Within the camp, the four Fengjun gathered again.
"The spies are here to report, Jun Shu Chao and Jun Shu Bao have already sent three thousand soldiers to help! They will arrive within three days!"
Qu Yijun looked at the wine and delicacies in front of him, completely losing his appetite.
Zhu Yuanjun also had a gloomy expression: "Unexpectedly, the resistance in the city is so tenacious. You must capture this city immediately! Otherwise, you will have to retreat."
Losing these many people, but having to evacuate in despair, even if he could rob the surrounding villages, he was still a little unwilling.
"After seven days in the city, the guards are also very sleepy..."
Bai Zhijun held the Jiujue, and suddenly looked towards Duan Yu: "I see Wu Chengjun's advance and retreat. They are really elite. I have heard that Qu Xujun was Hitachi's prestige and broke Xujiawu fort in one day. It can be seen that his men must be in battle and dare to die. Shi, you have to rely on Qu Xujun for this siege!"
With that said, Qu Yi and Zhu Yuan also repeatedly said yes.
Duan Yu's five-hundred talents have never used ~EbookFREE.me~ They can be seen in their eyes.
In fact, they also understood this very well. They also kept hundreds of elite men and horses who had lost their money. At critical moments, either breaking the army, killing the general, or escorting the escape, was the last hole card, and they had not come out to attack the city before.
"If you want this monarch to be your main force, what good is that monarch?"
Duan Yu held Jiujue with an inexplicable smile on his mouth.
"We are not divided long ago. After the city is broken, all the gold, silver and jade are yours."
Seeing Duan Yu's intention to compromise, Zhu Yuanjun immediately came to his mind.
"not enough!"
Duan Yu shook his head: "There is also a grain depot and an arsenal in the city, and we have to give priority to our army. How about?"
"In that case, it's a deal!"
Bai Zhijun made a final word.
