Vol 2 Chapter 387: Qin Junye discusses the offensive and defensive strategy

Outside the city of Shouchun, the Qin army camp.
Above the tower of the arrow tower, Liang Cheng, whose eyes were black, and his face gloomy, looked at the opposite wall that had fallen into the night. The fire came from more than a dozen miles, and the Qin above the tower watched The generals' faces were bright, and a sigh sounded: "It seems that there is a senior in the Shouchun City who is defending. Actually, he also learned to put down the brazier from the city head at night and hang it to the half city wall. Within a short walk, the lights were bright, and our army wanted night raids, and it was impossible to dig tunnels. "
The person who said this was a scribe, a white-faced scholar with armor all over his body, more than 50 years old, and must be gray-haired. It was Wang Xian, a priest in Yangzhou who was traveling with the army. Fu Jian not only left Sima Yao and Xie An as high-ranking officials in the Chang'an City, but also set up official positions like Yangzhou, Shizhou and Jingzhou, and bureaucratic arrangements like official county governors. As long as the corresponding state is captured in the front, these administrative officials can take office on the spot.
Liang Cheng glanced at Wang Xian and said calmly: "There are powerful characters in the city. I knew this before I went on the expedition. In fact, I don't need these braziers against night raids to be hung between the half cities, just to see the moat. The houses were demolished, and there were two ditches outside the city besides the moat, which could isolate our army ’s crypt attack. There were spiky stakes in the grass. Our army wanted to attack the city without any cover. , Can only attack. "
A well-armed and muscular general, it was Liang Cheng ’s lieutenant general Wang Yong who won an official post of Yiyang Taishou because of merit in the battle of Jingzhou. Of course, he has not taken up the post of the county guard, but he has followed After the Jingzhou stabbing history, Liang Cheng, an old superior of the General Guard title, continued to fight in the Huainan battlefield. His brow raised: "Since the battle, before our attack on the city, our army has always followed the command of the commander, shouting in unison. Shocking the enemy's gall, this plan worked out once and for all. Even the so-called sturdy Xiangyang City gave us such a roar that it lost morale and eventually fell. "
"But during the day today, our army roared like this, and the city could actually come back to the roar, uniformly and murderously. It was that simple hehe three noises that would suppress the battle roar of our army of tens of thousands of horses, saying To be honest, I still do n’t believe how they did it. What is that hey?
Liang Cheng shook his head: "I asked the local Jin people who were captives. They didn't know what this meant. It seemed to be the slogan when the country villagers farmed. But don't look at it. This slogan is simple and understandable. The momentum, they are at the head of the city, they have a high advantage, and can follow the south wind, so they suppress the battle roar of our army. However, to achieve this, at least thousands of people in the city must work together to take one The tone and rhythm are roaring, and there can be no cowardice. Guys, you said, what does this mean? "
Wang Yong gritted his teeth: "It means that the morale of these Jin troops is high, and they are very confident and listen to the command."
Liang Cheng nodded: "According to our information, there will not be too many Jin troops in the city, and it will definitely not exceed 10,000. Even if the civilian husband is temporarily requisitioned, it is almost this number. The Beifu army of the Jin army has not yet dispatched on a large scale. Hu Bin ’s navy is still a few days away from here, so we better capture Shouchun City before Hu Bin arrives. "
A trace of surprise flashed on Wang Xian's face: "General Liang, are you sure you want to attack? Our army has just arrived, and it has not scared the defenders in the city. Now Shouchun City's defense is so tight, and reinforcements may come at any time. Really Can you get it? "
A stern look flashed in Liang Cheng's eyes: "The enemy's morale is high. If we don't attack the city, their momentum will only rise even more. And our army came lightly this time and brought the elite of this family, that is I want to fight other troops, especially those dissatisfied alien soldiers, let them know that my Di soldiers are elite. "
"But now, the enemy's strong city is in front, and there are fierce men stationed. They hope to use this method to frighten us. You all should already know that the Liu Yu who defended the city is the battle of Junchuan. The Beifu army owner who defeated both Ji Nan and Peng Chao in China, I heard that the Xie family intends to recruit this man. "
Wang Xian nodded: "I also heard about this matter. This Liu Yu was in Beijing with a lot of mighty powers, and he also served as the leader of several martial arts princes. It can be seen that his martial arts are high and strong. But what he didn't expect is that this person actually understands military art. "
Wang Yong shook his head: "I don't believe that Liu Yu has such a legend. After all, Shouchun City is an important town of the Jin army. It has been operating for many years. It is not surprising if there is a good defensive system. It may not be the credit of Liu Yu. How can it be just a small owner now? "
"Also, I heard those of Yang Qiu ’s men saying that this Liu Yu did not bring soldiers to take over the defensive command in Shouchun City. He was escorting a family woman to marry Huan Yi ’s son here. It was just a captain of the guard. It seems that this person is more of a family member of the Xie family than a general in the army. "
There was a move in Liang Cheng's heart, "Oh," he said, "General Wang, what do you mean? Is it that Liu Yu does not have this talent, or is he not authorized to direct?"
Wang Yong smiled and said, "How can a young man in his early twenties ~ EbookFREE.me ~ understand so many ways of warfare, Liu Yu is not a child of the family, I am afraid that he hasn't even read the war books. A vanguard in the front, all those Huns under Peng Chao only wanted to rob, and the Han soldiers had little motivation to fight. Once he was scared, he was defeated. You see, if he really had So powerful, why not fight against our army out of the city like Junchuan ?! "
Wang Xian also laughed: "Yes, General Wang is right. If Liu Yu is really so powerful, he has nearly ten thousand horses, and he should go out of town to fight instead of shrinking and defending. It seems that he is just bluffing during the day. , We might as well take advantage of the night to win the city!
With a fierce flash in Wang Yong's eyes, he took off the helmet with one hand, and slammed his chest with his left hand. He said with a deep voice: "Master, let's order it, and now siege, he will be willing to be the front vanguard."
The generals on the side also fought and fought for battle.
Liang Cheng didn't answer directly. Above the arrow tower, he walked back and forth two steps back and forth. Finally, when he stood still, his mouth ticked off and said calmly: "No, it's getting late, there are in the city Be prepared, let's attack again at dawn, send orders, and send more soldiers to collect nearby stones. Tomorrow, I will let the Jin soldiers in the city know what the sky is called Stone Rain! "
