Chapter 831 Hearing Ren Fang say this, Nie Ze asked: "Does Ren Shuai think that our army can't break through the hegemony pass?"
Ren Fang blinked, then smiled, and said in a non-questionable manner: "Attacking the city and pulling out the fortress is not my forte, and I have to rely on General Nie a lot in the battle of Ming." ” The implication of his words was that he thought that there was nothing wrong with Nie Ze in commanding the siege battle, and he still let him be responsible for commanding the whole army to attack the city.
These words alleviated the depression and ugliness in Nie Ze's heart a lot, and he said with a rare politeness: "Ren Shuai is too modest, who doesn't know that Ren Shuai is an invincible and invincible general."
Ren Fang smiled on his back and didn't say anything more.
After exiting the Chinese military tent, Nie Ze said to his subordinates proudly while walking towards his own camp tent: "Ren Fangtu is just a false name, and when it comes to fighting a tough battle, it is not up to us to command the battle."
The generals of the Zhen army also laughed, and said flatteringly: "Presumably, Ren Fang has long admired the prestige of the general."
Nie Ze was even more proud when he heard this, and laughed.
On the other hand, the generals of the Sichuan army were very puzzled by Ren Fang's decision.
In their opinion, Nie Ze's siege strategy was unskillful, and it was a completely hard-fought assault, resulting in heavy casualties on their own side.
Adjutant General Jin Zhuo asked curiously: "Why didn't the general personally command the battle?"
Ren Fang sighed lightly and said, "The Baguan is strong, even if it is commanded by me, the result will be the same." ” The generals looked at each other, and no one said anything.
The next day, the combined forces of Chuanzhen came out of the camp again and launched a siege battle.
With the lesson of the previous day, Nie Ze also learned to be obedient, no longer fighting and rushing, but pushed thousands of stone throwing machines of the whole army onto the battlefield, and the personnel were not up, so he first used dense stone bullets to attack Baguan.
Thousands of heavy stone throwers, continuously firing stone bullets, the power is so great, the ground shakes the mountains, the sky is dark, the opposite side of the Baguan city can not stand at all, the soldiers of the wind army all hide in the city or behind the city wall, listening to the continuous impact above the head, people's faces are white and bloodless.
The ground is full of holes, and the city defense facilities such as rolling logs, rolling stones, and oil pots that were originally piled up on the city head have also suffered great damage, and the rolling logs and stones are scattered all over the ground, the oil pot is overturned and broken, the broken army crossbow and the broken city crossbow have become a pile of rotten wood, and bundles of arrows have been smashed into several sections The city wall has been riddled with holes from the impact of stone bullets, but the opponent's stone thrower has no intention of stopping, and the soldiers of the Wind Army in the city even wonder if the other party is going to fight like this all day.
The continuous ejection continued from morning to noon, and it was only then that it finally came to an end, but immediately afterwards, the siege party of the Kawasada's coalition began to move forward.
As on the first day, the main force of the Kawazhen coalition army was divided into several groups, one group after another, maintaining a strong offensive.
As the stone projectiles stopped, the wind army hiding under the city wall also rushed to the city, and when people came up, they looked at it again, and they were dumbfounded, the city wall was full of rubble, rotten wood, and pits, and there was not even a place to stay.
However, the generals in the wind army reacted quickly, and immediately issued an order for the whole army to quickly clean up the city wall, and put together what could still be used, and push down the city wall if it could not be used, and at the same time, let the rear immediately carry over new city defense weapons to fill it.
The wind army in the city was very busy, when the enemy army besieging the city entered the firing range, the archers of the wind army were already in position, under the orders of the generals of each corps, people twisted their bows and arrows, and launched a volley at the enemy army outside the city.
Most of the crossbow beds that were originally erected on the city were destroyed, and the wind army hurriedly moved another batch from the city, at this time the city wall was very lively, the wind army in front of the row was firing arrows, and the soldiers in the back pushed the crossbow bed from time to time, in addition, the soldiers holding the rolling wood and stones were also shuttling constantly.
After a whole morning of stone bullet strikes against Baguan, Nie Ze thought that the resistance of the wind army would be weakened a lot, but he was wrong, the wind army's counterattack was still fierce and abnormal, the arrows shot down from the city were as dense as raindrops, and the stone bullets fired in the city were as many as hail, which brought huge damage to the Chuanzhen coalition army.
The Wind Army hates the enemy's stone thrower, and the Chuan Zhen Coalition Army also hates the Wind Army's stone thrower, this weapon is too powerful to be prevented, and the lethality is amazing.
Nie Ze sent the cloud chariot from the Sichuan army to the battlefield.
The cloud car is similar to the arrow tower, the volume is smaller, but the height is higher, up to four or five zhang, which is specially used to spy on the situation in the city during the siege.
Nie Ze asked the soldiers on the cloud cart to find the location of the Wind Army's stone thrower, and then moved his heavy stone thrower forward, using the advantage of range to hit the stone thrower in the city.
But the cloud car is relatively fragile, and it is not so easy to get close to Baguan and spy inside Baguan City.
The Sichuan army dispatched a total of five cloud vehicles, and only one of them was intact on the battlefield, but it finally fulfilled its mission and ascertained the location of the stone thrower in the city.
After receiving the exact information, Nie Ze immediately ordered his own stone thrower to move forward one mile and drop stone projectiles into the city one mile away from Baguan.
When the heavy stone thrower was two miles away from Baguan, the city-breaking crossbow on the head of the city could not shoot it, but now it is close to one mile, and it can be within the range of the city-breaking crossbow.
The soldiers of the Wind Army didn't know why the enemy commander suddenly had a nervous attack and why he pushed the catapult so close to their own, but this opportunity was too rare, and it was a good time to destroy the enemy's heavy weapons.
The wind army adjusted the position of the crossbow bed that had just been carried to the city, and let the enemy's siege phalanx pass through the enemy's siege phalanx, and the arrows were aimed at the opponent's heavy stone thrower.
Before the Chuan Zhen coalition army could fire stone bullets into the city, the crossbow arrows on the city came first.
The bolts of the city-breaking crossbow are said to be arrows, but they are actually wooden stakes wrapped in iron sheets, which can be smashed into pieces when they hit the wooden frame of the stone thrower.
As the crossbow arrows continued to fly over, dozens of heavy stone throwers were instantly damaged, and Nie Ze, who was watching from behind, ordered in a frightened voice to quickly withdraw his own stone throwers.
The heavy stone throwing machines of Sichuan Country have been gone again and again, and hundreds of them have been damaged by shooting.
This big stuffy loss made Nie Ze feel as if he had swallowed a fly and got stuck in his throat.
However, knowing the power of the crossbow machine in Baguan City, he basically gave up the idea of smashing the opponent's stone throwing machine.
The siege battle lasted from noon until it was dark, and Nie Ze ordered the whole army to retreat.
After two days of fierce attack, it was fruitless, and Baguan was still firmly in the hands of the Feng Army, and at this time, Nie Ze, who was full of confidence, also began to be at a loss.
He knew in his heart that if he continued to consume like this, even if he could finally occupy the Baguan, the price he would pay would be too much, and he didn't know how many soldiers would be killed and wounded in battle Now, Ren Fang still has no intention of taking over the command, he still came to the battlefield to watch the battle on the first day of siege, and on the second day of siege, he did not even come out of the camp, and completely handed it over to Nie Ze.
This made Nie Ze feel even more pressure, at this time, he wanted to return the command to Ren Fang, but it was difficult to speak, so he could only continue to be the commander-in-chief of the siege.
After two fierce battles, the casualties of the Chuanzhen coalition army were not small, and the soldiers were also exhausted, and on the third day, although the main force of the Chuanzhen coalition army went out of the camp again, but it was no longer moving forward, Nie Ze just ordered his own heavy stone throwers to keep firing stone bullets to attack the defense of Baguan City.
With the lesson of the previous day, the wind army also gained experience this time, most of the city defense weapons were not left in the city, all of them were moved to the city, and there were only some rolling logs and stones left on the city wall, which were not afraid of smashing and were not distressed even if they were destroyed.
This time, the Sichuan-Zhen coalition army's stone-throwing machine strike lasted longer, from morning to afternoon, and when it was almost evening, the siege troops of the Chuanzhen coalition army went to the battlefield, and seeing that the counterattack of Baguan was still very fierce, Nie Ze hastily ordered the troops to be collected and returned to the camp.

Three days passed, and the million-strong army was isolated outside the city of Baguan, and it was difficult to cross the thunder pool by half a step, which made Nie Ze anxious like ants on a hot pot, restless, and unable to sleep at night.
Seeing the appearance of his own commander, the generals below were also very helpless, and someone suggested to Nie Ze that he should simply return the command of the siege to Ren Fang, after all, Ren Fang is the commander of the coalition forces, and it is Ren Fang's responsibility and task to capture the hegemony, why should he take this problem on himself Nie Ze is arrogant, he is afraid that he will be compared to others, he is afraid that others are better than himself, after listening to the words of his subordinates, he was furious, gritted his teeth and asked: "Do you think that this handsome is not as good as him?"
That Zhen Jiang shrank his neck in fright, how could he mean this, but seeing Nie Ze grinning and looking like he was going to eat people, Zhen Jiang lowered his head and didn't dare to explain more.
At this time, a strategist named Guo Song in the Zhen army sneered, shook his head and said, "General, what is the difficulty in breaking the hegemony pass?"
Oh, what a big breath, the generals of the Zhen Army looked at Guo Song like monsters, including Nie Ze.
The latter said: "Mr.
Guo Song, how can you say this?"
Guo Song said with a smile: "I have a plan, if the general acts according to my plan, at most one month, our army can easily take the overlord pass and capture the wind army in the city alive."
At this moment, Nie Ze suddenly came to his senses, his eyes widened, and he shot out of essence, and hurriedly asked: "What is the plan, Mr.
Guo Song, please tell me quickly."
Guo Song asked rhetorically: "General, isn't there a lot of corpses of fallen soldiers in our army?"
"That's right."
"Soak these corpses in stagnant water, after a few days, they will rot and breed plagues, and then use a stone thrower to throw all the corpses in the city of Baguan, and within a few days, the plague will spread in Baguan, and the general imagines how those sick wind troops can resist the attack of my million-strong army."
Guo Song said it lightly, but the generals around him listened in a cold sweat.
Zhenguo, like Fengguo, has a martial style among the people, and the status of military attaches is significantly higher than that of civilian officials.
At this time, people looked at Guo Song, and they all secretly scolded in their hearts, such a vicious plan to cut off their children and grandchildren can only be thought of by civil officials like this.
After hearing this, Nie Ze also gasped, stared at Guo Song with wide eyes for a long time, and then slowly closed his eyes and lowered his head silently
