The intensity of the wars carried out by the Han Department cannot be considered high, and the scale of the battles is mostly in the thousands, and it is rare to reach tens of thousands in a few times.
If there were 30,000 defenders in Duchang City, this battle of Duchang should be the largest number of enemy troops faced by the Han Army.
Liu Yan was originally in a mood of excitement and anticipation, but when he learned that the enemy army was fighting among themselves, he didn't know why that passion dissipated.
On the third day after arriving in Duchang City, the stone-throwing truck continued to bombard a city wall, and in the sound of collapse, I watched the hastily repaired city wall tilt and fall, and I noticed that I saw some kind of wood Yes, there was wood in the fallen wall, it seemed to be some pillars or something, and you could even see that there were door panels.
"Hollow" Liu Yan was stunned for a moment: "It took three days to hit the bomb" In Shijie Zhao State does not pay attention to city defense, it is estimated that it has long become a "popular", and it is really rare to see a city that attaches importance to city defense, most of them look dilapidated, and even most of them have gaps in the city wall.
When Liu Yan led the army to Duchang City, he was still emotional, saying that the city guards were finally in shape, and he also asked if the Jin people served as the city guards.
What's going on now, there is a section of the wall that is hollow "Dispersed the bomb" Liu Yan was weird: "Looking for a relatively new place, I went to the bomb." ” The result was rather embarrassing, those city walls that looked quite new were basically the same, and they had been bombarded for three days before they understood that there was such a situation.
After the east city wall was bombarded, several other city walls also took turns to bombard, and in less than seven days, Duchang City became a city full of loopholes in defense.
"Something is wrong, very wrong" Lu Yi frowned and said, "In the past seven days, the defenders have not carried out any counterattack" Duchang City was encircled by Liu Yan according to the old tradition of encircling three queyi, and the east side was the main direction of attack at a glance, and the other two sides were mostly built fortifications and dug trenches.
"There are really 30,000 defenders in the city" Li Kuang is a military marquis, he can participate in the main meeting, he listened carefully for a long time, and found that the meeting was not as high-end as he imagined, and it seemed a little dull.
Lu Yi's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Yes, is there really 30,000 defenders in the city?"
The commander of the scout battalion began to sweat on his forehead when he heard this, he stood up and saluted, and said: "The post guarantees with his life, and the defenders of the city have not left the city since they retreated."
"Is there cooking smoke in the city?"
Liu Yan motioned to the chief officer of the scout camp to sit down, and said: "I look at a lot of cooking smoke every day, has anyone paid attention to the cooking time?"
How long it takes to cook a meal, and then how long the cooking smoke should be, this is not difficult to discern with experience, but before they only paid attention to the amount of cooking smoke, and did not pay attention to the time when the cooking smoke existed.
"What does the king mean" Lu Yi's eyes widened: "There is no food in the city" It seems that there is only one explanation that makes sense, that is, the smoke is completely bluffing, and the morale of the defenders in the city is extremely low because of the lack of food, otherwise why didn't they fight back a little from beginning to end What did Sensei say, Liu Yan slapped Ming'er and attacked.
The next day, the Han military camp in the east of Duchang became busier than usual, and even the smoke rose earlier than usual, and experienced people should know that the contact battle was today.
In the roar of war drums, the gate of the barracks after the meal was opened, and an incomparably neat sound of footsteps appeared first, and a group of armor soldiers walked out of the gate and went straight to the bow and arrow range of the Duchang city wall to set up a military formation.
There is still no reaction on the walls of Duchang City, giving people a strange feeling that penetrates into the bones.
Liu Yan, who personally supervised the battle, kept frowning, and all put on a posture of attacking the city, and the defenders of Duchang were still like this, so what was the purpose of them cautiously bombarding catapults with catapults for so many days All the troops that should be in place are in place, and there are finally more figures on the city wall, but it still looks like something is wrong.
"There are a few people" Lu Yi obviously didn't understand the situation at all: "Shoot a few waves first" Liu Yan bowed his head and ordered: "Three rounds of bed crossbows and six rounds of bows." ” Naturally, someone will convey Liu Yan's order, which is conveyed in the flag language, and then the war drums will be beaten.
The rattle of the bowstrings began to appear with the sound of the bang, and a dark cloud rose from the ground with a sharp sound of arrows breaking through the air, and in an instant the sound of the arrows colliding with objects began.
"It's really wrong, the defenders' bows are too low."
Liu Yan looked at the city: "The number of people has not increased. ” After about half an hour, the firing of the long-range weapons was over, and Liu Yan ordered the tribe to advance with armed forces, and they would enter through the gaps in the crumbling walls.
Liu Yan has always been looking at the map in his mind, and the number of red dots is not small, but the activity of those "red dots" is too low.
The vanguard of tribal forces poured in from several gaps in the city walls, and the resistance of the defenders of Duchang appeared, which was intercepted by some soldiers without uniform uniforms.
Judging from the map in Liu Yan's mind, there are also "red dots" gathered in the city, and the number seems to be normal.
"The enemy's will to resist is relatively strong."
Liu Yan looked at Lu Yi and said, "Could it be that they understand that it is difficult to defend the broken city walls everywhere, and plan to engage in street battles with us in the city?"
Lu Yi was blinking, thinking: "Street fighting is to fight in the city regardless of the city wall."
This is the generation gap brought by the times, in terms of the thinking of cold weapons, the general situation is to carry out the city wall defense war, once the city wall is lost, it is equivalent to the loss of the city, or why is the city wall a miss every time the attack and defense war, if you can't regain control of the city wall, it is equivalent to the fall of the city Without seeing it with his own eyes, of course, Liu Yan couldn't really know what the situation was in the city, and he could only roughly see from the map in his mind that under the attack of the system soldiers, the defenders only held out for less than five minutes, and they collapsed "Let the second group of troops attack" The huge war drums were beaten again, and Li Kuang took a deep breath and led his troops into the city from the gap.
He saw that the ground was full of all kinds of people, and it was strange to find some strange corpses on the edge of the corner of the city at the gap.
How to say that those corpses are not new, and they should have died for a while, and the number is not small.
Entering the city, it is as if you have entered a huge mound, and a rancid smell cannot be ignored, so that people can't help but want to bend down and vomit when they smell it.
In an instant, many people in the second batch of siege troops changed their faces, they were too familiar with this smell, it was the corpses that had no data and no one to clean up for a long time before they would have such a strong corpse smell.
Usually if there is such a corpse smell, it means the spread of various diseases, and there is a high probability that there will be a contagious plague.
"What, what" Liu Yan exploded when he heard it: "Plague" On the side of Duchang City, it seems that everything that is unreasonable is beginning to become reasonable, that is, the spread of disease "Your Majesty, withdraw the troops, withdraw the troops immediately" Lu Yi's face turned blue: "The attacking troops need to be isolated, all of them are isolated" Li Kuang's face turned blue, if he was isolated, he would definitely be one.
He is a person who has seen what quarantine is all about, whether he is sick or not, as long as he is quarantined, there is almost no chance of survival.
"No, it's seriously wrong" Liu Yan didn't say anything, he weirdly checked the map in his mind again, as more troops attacked and dispersed, there were not a few active enemies in the city, not the slightest bit of a city with a plague.
He asked: "Are there any prisoners of war?"
Lu Yi tried his best to stabilize and admonished: "Your Majesty, there are only 3,000 tribal troops and 1,000 soldiers in isolation now, if it is too late, I am afraid."
"There are prisoners of war, there are prisoners of war" Li Kuang looked too excited, he didn't care about respecting Lu Yi is long history of marching, you must know that being isolated is equivalent to death, and he couldn't even bother to salute and ran out.
Liu Yan's face was full of frost, and he raised his hand to stop Lu Yi from going down, signaling that he needed to be quiet.
Of course, isolation is isolation, and the loss of 3,000 system soldiers doesn't matter, even those 1,000 soldiers will make Liu Yan feel distressed for a long time.
He was in a heavy mood that there was no population on the eastern peninsula of Shan1, and once a circulating plague broke out again, what if the Han Department even captured Qingzhou, was it just to occupy a no-man's land Of course, the prisoners of war were not brought over, it was Li Kuang who personally interrogated and ran over to report, he almost cursed and swore an oath, and told Liu Yan that there was no outbreak of plague in Changcheng, but "There have been four times of infighting" Liu Yan had to be stunned: "So much" The prisoners of war were still brought over, but they were only brought over after scrubbing, and when their skin was rotten, they were brought in a suit of shame.

According to the prisoner's own confession, he still has a bit of status, and is a leader of the defenders at a level similar to that of a military marquis, and when asked why there were so many infighting, he said: "It was originally for the official position of the Beihai County Guard, and later for food." ” Liu Yan and Lu Yi looked at each other for a while: "" In short, Shijie Zhao's strange way of political power made those people fight with the weak, intending to win a real boss, but they burned most of the grain when they were fighting, so that now some powerful forces have a lot of food, and the other part is extremely short of food, and it was not until the Han army pressed the border that the fighting stopped, but the situation of water and fire could not be changed for a long time.
In terms of the case, Liu Yan should be very happy to encounter this kind of opponent who can still fight in a state of war, but he really felt speechless for a while.
"It's because we're too weak, no one takes us seriously" Liu Yan was extremely gloomy: "That's the case, it must be like this":
