Chapter 539


Chapter 539 After listening to Wu Huan's words, the noses of the generals below were almost crooked, is this what the commander of the army should say, the generals are outside, the king's order is not affected If you don't even have this bit of courage, what kind of army did you vote for at the beginning But Wu Huan is the main general, he does not agree to fight, and the soldiers below have no choice.

On the other side, the commander of the 100,000 Ning army stationed in Fengcheng is the lieutenant general Yan Zhi, and Yan Zhi also received the same royal order as Wu Huan, stationed in Fengcheng and not allowed to go out, but his courage is much greater than Wu Huan, and he and Yan Chu are still clan relatives, even if they disobey the order, they are not afraid of anything.

I heard that there were 100,000 wind troops passing through the middle of Xiaoxia and Fengcheng, and they were severely scolded and happy to jump so high, they were worried that there was no battle to fight, but the wind army took the initiative to send it to the door, and he immediately wanted to give an order to go out of the city to meet the wind army.

Don't look at Yan Zhi hot-headed, a little carried away, but his lieutenant is unusual, this person's name is Wang Yi, and he is a veteran with a long and experienced battlefield.

He dissuaded and reprimanded: "General, the wind army is coming strangely, if the wind army really wants to sneak attack Hedong, it is impossible to send only 100,000 people to come, and it is impossible to march slowly, let alone go from the middle of our two cities with heavy troops with great fanfare.

Ah Yan scolded the words, took a breath, and his mind immediately calmed down.

He was able to achieve the title of lieutenant general, and it didn't all depend on the relationship between Yan Chu's clan relatives, he himself also had some ability, and now he was reminded by Wang Yi like this, he nodded secretly, it makes sense, this wind army is really strange He asked, "General Wang, what about your opinion?"

Wang Yi Zhengse said: "Our army will not be able to hold out, and the general should immediately send a letter to the king and wait for the king's will to act." ” "Yes, yes, what the old general said is reasonable" Yan Zhi nodded again and again, and then he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly called a subordinate, and said: "You immediately go and send a message to Xiao Xia's General Wu, and let him stick to Xiao Xia and not attack easily." ” Before the man could agree, Wang Yi smiled, waved his hand and said, "No need." ” "How" looked at him incruciously.

Wang Yi said with a smile: "General Wu has always been cautious, if he attacks, he will definitely report to the general in advance, asking the general to attack the wind army with him, but until now General Wu's message has not arrived, indicating that he has also given up his plan to attack the wind army."

Wang Yi knows Wu Huan too well, and it is flattering and polite to say that he is cautious, but in fact he is very timid and afraid, even if he borrows ten guts, Wu Huan does not dare to face the Feng Army alone.

After listening to Wang Yi's words, Yan Zhi also smiled, nodded, waved his hand to the subordinate who had just called, and said: "You go down, by the way, send an order to our army and soldiers, all departments stick to the city, beware of the sneak attack of the wind army, without my generals, whoever dares to fight rashly will be dealt with by military law."

"It's the general" The partial general intervened and hurried away.

Tang Yin resorted to the strategy of luring the snake out of the hole, Wu Huan, the commander of Xiaoxia's Ning army, did not dare to disobey the king's order and did not go out of the city, and the commander of the Ning army in Fengcheng was severely reprimanded by the dissuasion of Wang Yi, the deputy general under his command, and did not send troops to attack, and the result ended in failure.

Tang Yin didn't care, seeing that the Ning army was not fooled, and the army directly under his commander also went out of Tongmen, and at the same time, the Pingyuan Army and the Sanshui Army went to Xiaoxia and Fengcheng respectively.

After the Plains Army arrived in Xiaoxia, they immediately set up camp, and Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang personally went up to the tower and raised their eyes to look at the situation in Xiaoxia City.

Xiaoxia City only has small characters in its name, but in fact it is not small at all, and there are 100,000 troops in it, which shows the breadth of the city.

Behind the high walls of Xiaoxia City, the helmets of the Ning army on the city were bright, and the soldiers were like forests, standing there, as if they were a steel city wall.

After watching it, Xiao Muqing grinned secretly, this battle is not easy to fight, thinking about it, he asked Wu Guangdao beside him: "General Wu, how do you see how our army should deal with this battle?"

Wu Guang is one of the four fierce generals of the Wind Country, but he is not a simple-minded person with developed limbs, he pondered for a moment, and said: "Xiaoxia City is strong, and there are 100,000 Ning troops to defend it, and the Ning army has an arrow array to rely on, it is even easier to defend and difficult to attack, if our army forcibly attacks the city, I am afraid that it will not only be difficult to break through Xiaoxia, but also lose troops and lose generals, and frustrate oneself."

Xiao Muqing nodded, what Wu Guang said was exactly what he was worried about.

Seeing that he didn't answer, Wu Guang said again: "I have a plan, I don't know if it's feasible."

"Oh" Xiao Muqing knew that Wu Guang was very shrewd, and after hearing this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "General Wu has any plans, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ” Wu Guang didn't speak immediately, but turned around and walked towards the bottom of the tower.

Xiao Muqing followed him curiously and also went down the tower.

When he got to the ground, Wu Guang raised his foot and stomped on the ground hard, and two footprints were immediately left on the ground.

Wu Guang smiled at Xiao Muqing, then lowered his gaze and said, "General, please take a look." ” Xiao Muqing lowered his head, looked at the two footprints on the ground, and wondered in his heart, what are the footprints so beautiful, and what do they have to do with his own broken city, he asked puzzledly: "What did General Wu ask me to see?"

Wu Guang explained: "The land in the Hedong region is fertile, mostly soft soil, and our army cannot attack openly, so we can come to attack secretly.

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look in the direction of Xiao Xia, and said: "Our camp is more than two miles away from Xiao Xia, with the softness of the land in the Hedong region, it only takes ten days to dig a tunnel from the camp to Xiao Xia City, as long as our army can enter the city smoothly, the Ning army, which is good at shooting arrows, is vulnerable." ” After hearing this, Xiao Muqing gasped, he squatted down thoughtfully, looked at the footprints that Wu Guang stepped on, and then poked the soil on the ground with his fingers, and nodded slowly, there are many mountains in the territory of the Wind Country, and the ground is full of stones, and it is not realistic to attack the city by digging tunnels, but the Hedong region is different, the soil here is fertile, warm and humid and rainy, and the soil is extremely soft, as Wu Guang said, with the manpower of his own army of 100,000, it will not take a few days to dig a tunnel more than two miles long.

He rolled his eyes, slowly stood up, and said with a smile: "We can use the stone thrower, the city-breaking crossbow, and the city-breaking crossbow to constantly disturb the Ning army in the city day and night, distract its energy, and at the same time, it is also for us to dig tunnels in the camp as a cover, and when the tunnels are dug through, the Ning army will inevitably become a tired division, and then we will give the Ning army an internal and external attack."

Wu Guang looked up and smiled, and continued: "In this way, our army can take Xiao Xia lightly."

"Haha" After speaking, Xiao Muqing and Wu Guang laughed on their backs.

On the same day, Xiao Muqing did not do any rest, and immediately issued an order to launch an attack on Xiaoxia City with a stone thrower, a city-breaking crossbow, and a army-breaking crossbow, and on the other hand, he asked people to go to the nearby forest to cut down trees, one is to make crossbow arrows for city-breaking crossbows, and more importantly, to make wooden stakes to support the tunnel.

Because the land in the Hedong area is too soft, the tunnels they dug cannot be too deep, and if there are no supports, there is a possibility of collapse at any time.

The plain army is to use stone throwers, city-breaking crossbows, and army-breaking crossbows to kill and injure the enemy, and on the other hand, they secretly dig tunnels in the camp, of course, the tunnels cannot be dug outside, but choose to be in the camp tents, in order to hide people's eyes and ears, for fear of arousing the suspicion of the Ning army, the excavated soil can not be immediately tilted outward, but scattered in various camp tents, and when it gets dark, then all the horse-drawn carts are pulled outside the camp for processing.

The soldiers of the Plains Army did not directly attack the city, but only the harassment of the stone throwing machine, the city-breaking crossbow, and the army-breaking crossbow tossed the Ning army defending the city a lot.

The stone thrower and the city-breaking crossbow can be regarded as the best combination, when the stone-throwing machine throws a boulder, the Ning army on the city head will subconsciously hide behind the arrow battlement, but at this time, the lethality of the city-breaking crossbow is brought into play, when Xuanwang developed the city-breaking crossbow, its purpose was to kill and injure the enemy after the arrow battlement, and now it is good, a large number of Ning troops on the city head are all squeezed behind the arrow battlement, and the result is a spur by the city-breaking crossbow, only in an instant, Xiao Xia's screams on the city head are connected, and the Ning soldiers have never seen such a domineering weapon, Even the arrow stacks could be pierced, and people instinctively retreated again and again to avoid the arrow stacks, only to have an overwhelming boulder fall on their backs.

Ning Jun did not understand the weapons currently used by the Feng Army, and suffered a big loss at the beginning of the battle, with more than 1,000 soldiers lost, and its commander Wu Huan was also frightened by the combination of the stone throwing machine and the city-breaking crossbow, and he grabbed a general beside him, and shouted repeatedly: "Hurry up and ask for help from the king, quickly ask for help from Fengcheng, just say that the main force of the Feng Army has come to attack Xiaoxia in a big way" The general looked at Wu Huan, whose face was frightened, sighed secretly, and said: "General don't worry, the urgent document has been sent, in addition, the Feng army is only doing a tentative disturbance now, and has not officially attacked the city, so the general does not need to worry."

"The wind army is powerful, if no one comes to the rescue, you and I will die and have no place to be buried" Before he could officially confront the wind army, Wu Huan began to take the initiative to recite the funeral scriptures.

With such a commander, how high can the morale of the soldiers below be Soon, the Ning army also saw that the Feng army was only using stone throwers and crossbow machines to test, and there was no real intention of attacking, and the Ning generals transferred their soldiers to the city wall to reduce unnecessary casualties, leaving only a small force to defend on the city wall, and when the Feng army began to charge, it was not too late to transfer the troops under the city to participate in the city defense.

Ning generals have also thought about it, and the stones and crossbow arrows in your wind army will eventually run out, see how long you can shoot Sure enough, after the Plains Army smashed and shot, calm returned to the battlefield.

Seeing this, the Ning generals knew from experience that the soldiers of the Feng Army were about to charge and attack the city, so they hurriedly dispatched all the Ning soldiers who were hiding under the city wall, pulled up their positions, and prepared to defend against the enemy.

I didn't know that after waiting for a long time, I didn't see any movement in the camp of the Feng Army, just when the Ning soldiers and Ning generals were puzzled, the stone throwing machine and the city-breaking crossbow and the army-breaking crossbow in front of the Plains Army were launched again, and this time the Ning soldiers scolded their mothers and ran down the city wall to take refuge below
