Chapter 204: Fourth Army


Where is the other partial division of the Han Department is probably Yao Lan, Yao Jing, and Liu Zheng When they were confused, the cavalry led by Xu Zheng happened to enter Dong'an County.

Xu Zheng's entry into Dong'an County takes a certain amount of time to survey the terrain, and before that, he can only hide as much as possible, or he will be ambushed or blocked somewhere because he is unfamiliar with the terrain, which should become synonymous with stupidity.

The pace of the city's offensive and defensive battles was not fast, and the attack and defense of the lower secret had only lasted for twelve days, so Liu Zheng, Yao Lan, Yao Jing and others felt slow if they had not experienced similar battles.

It is necessary to know one thing clearly, but where the city defense facilities are better, and which cities are easier to attack in a few days, and some cities that take several months, but there are more cities that have not been conquered for several years.

Need an example?

In this way, the slow-paced offensive and defensive battles continued.

Because it has not been able to attack for a long time, and the casualties are slightly heavy, the morale of the coalition army is changing every day, and those who are the commanders of the coalition forces have of course found the signs, but many times they can effectively solve it if they don't know something.

"Nearly 4,000 people were lost today, but I finally broke through the third layer of the camp" Yao Lan gritted her teeth when she spoke: "I paid special attention to it, the enemy's armor is still 1,000 people. ” It's too weird, no matter how much you lost yesterday, the next day it will definitely be a thousand armor soldiers, as if you can't kill them all.

Yao Lan can guarantee one thing, absolutely did not find that the Han Department had reinforcements from the east bank to the camp, and it was because of this that he couldn't figure out how the armor soldiers in the camp were replenished.

"Liu Yan deliberately depleted our troops, so as not to send the armor soldiers at one time" Yao Jing is not stupid, he just doesn't know what the system golden finger is, so it will become inevitable to be stunned.

He smiled wryly: "If that's the case, he succeeded." ” Originally, laying the third camp was an extremely morale-boosting thing, but the price paid was too great.

If yesterday's losses are counted, the coalition forces have already folded nearly 18,000 troops into the attack on the camp.

The coalition forces together totaled 110,000 people, they lost 18,000 people on the camp side, and nearly 4,000 people in the main city and sub-city of Xiami, and nearly 10,000 people were lost in attacking the Yongdao established by the Han Department, and less than 80,000 people were left in less than half a month.

The reason why "people" instead of soldiers is used is a very clear thing, the people who can be called soldiers in the coalition army are nearly 20,000 Qiang soldiers and 12,000 in the Qingzhou army, and the rest are temporarily pulled up manpower, and Qingzhuang accounts for the majority.

"Even if those roads are broken today, they will be able to build them again the next day."

Liu Zheng happened to know what Yongdao was, and said: "Liu Yan's tribe has set up a twentieth rank of lords, and he has learned that the Qin army must build Yongdao every battle.

Where did he get that knowledge?"

Liu Zheng was wrong in some places, although Yongdao was one of the "patents" of the Qin army, but Yongdao was a product that only appeared during the period of the First Emperor, and those previous Qin kings or Qin monarchs did not have similar products.

According to legend, Yongdao was created by Meng Tian, the general of the Qin army, but he doesn't know whether it's true or not.

And no matter who founded Yongdao, anyway, it has made the coalition side suffer enough.

The Hu people who participated in this battle had enough status to make up their minds early in their minds, in addition to learning the band shooting of the Han archers, they must also learn to establish Yongdao during the war.

In fact, the coalition forces have already begun to do it, they have drawn down the roads in the camps everywhere, and almost completely copied the methods of the Han Department to establish one road after another, but because of the tight time, I am afraid that the quality is not very good.

The coalition forces were gloomy and bleak, and it had been agreed that if they could not capture the secret city within a month, they would choose to besiege it, and dispatch several partial divisions to attack Changguang County, Donglai County, and Dongmu County.

They thought that the main battle force of the Han Department had been dispatched, and the interior was empty, and the capture of those counties was to make the record look better, and the second was to hope to plunder enough people from the three counties to attack Xiami.

Liu Yan didn't bring his own remote mind reader, so he naturally didn't know that the coalition forces had agreed on a time limit.

He relied on the observation of the map in his mind, and knew that Xu Zheng had led his army to break into Dong'an County, so that there were some opportunities that could be brewed.

The Han Department is not only a partial division, but there are actually four armies in use at present, except for the Xiami battlefield, the cavalry led by Xu Zhengsuo, who broke into Dong'an County, is the first, the Sang Yu Department that stayed at the border between Gaomi County and Dong'an County is the second, and the third army is supported from Liao 1 Dong and Chao 1 Xian.

Ji Chang is leading the third army on the march, not by land, but by sea, and will directly enter from Zishui, which is connected to the Bohai Sea, to the east side of modern Guangrao of Judian Lake, and then go south by turbid water, and land directly on the edge of Guanggu City, which is equivalent to a blitzkrieg on Guanggu City, even if it is not captured, it can be returned from the waterway.

Liu Yan naturally wouldn't mention Ji Chang's army all the way, after all, if the king is not secret, he will lose his ministers, and many things will inadvertently cause serious consequences.

"The enemy has been attacking the camp for more than ten days, and the third line of defense has been lost yesterday."

Liu Yan looked at Lu Yi and the others who were temporarily transferred, and said, "There is only the last line of defense left in the camp, and it is time to start building a pontoon bridge." ” It is time to force the coalition army, and the recent weak offensive of the coalition army is not something that Liu Yan wants to see.

People will have fewer flaws when defending, and once they attack unavoidably, they will show more flaws, which is actually the same for the army.

Liu Yan can roughly judge that the morale of the coalition army continues to be low, but it is far from the moment when the Han army turns defense into attack, as if a group of troops were prepared that day, but in the end, because the timing was wrong, it was only preparation, and it was not said that it was sent out and lost in vain.

The Han Department wrote the script and set up the stage, but after all, they were not really acting, Yao Jiajun and Qingzhou Army would not really act according to the script, all Liu Yan and others could do was to observe the situation, make corresponding changes, and force the enemy to choose.

Seeing that the crumbling camp began to build a pontoon bridge, Liu Zheng, Yao Lan and others, who learned of this situation, finally smiled.

"It looks like it can't hold on."

Wang Teng frowned and said, "It's just that the situation is still not right. ” The Han defenders in the camp began to build pontoon bridges today, so it indicates that they were able to build them before, and as the attacking side, they should think about why they didn't build pontoon bridges before.

"Is it possible that reinforcements from the Han Department have arrived on the east coast?"

Liu Zheng said the most likely answer.

"No, not really."

Yao Lan can replace Yao Jing, the lineage of the Yao family, as the military master, and her ability will naturally not be bad, and some details of the arrangement will not be forgotten.

He said: "Our army has been wandering scouts on the east bank, and when they find reinforcements from the Han Army, they will notify them in the form of wolf smoke. ” Liu Zheng had to ask: "Is it a scattered scout?"

Yao Lan nodded: "Of course it is." ” Well, scattered scout distribution, even if you kill some, there will always be fish caught in the net, and the agreed time will be gathered in batches, as long as the attrition is found, the investigation will be strengthened, and the information will always be passed on, not to mention the means of warning with wolf smoke.

Yao Jing asked: "When will Liu Gong's reinforcements arrive?"

"It will take half a month at the earliest, and at the latest" Liu Zheng would not say anything to death, and shook his head before continuing: "Even if reinforcements come, they can only be responsible for the siege." ” Most of the army in Guanggu City, the capital of Qingzhou, has already been brought out by Liu Zheng, and the remaining ones are the ones that cannot be moved lightly no matter what, so the reinforcements can only be local family forces.

In these years, it will be difficult for the regular army to attack the city, and Liu Zheng is not like the two brothers of the Yao family have a good father, so it is impossible to push those local family private soldiers or young people as cattle to the knife edge, and it can really only be transferred to besiege rather than consumed in large quantities.

Speaking of cannon fodder, Liu Zheng asked the two brothers of the Yao family, but Yao Jing didn't want Yao Jing to shut up immediately, but Yao Lan said some truths.

Yao Jing came from the direction of Yanzhou, taken by Yao Yizhong's prestige, there were too many families along the way who wanted to tie Yao Jing to hug the thigh of the Yao family, first let Yao Jing gather a group of troops, and then Yao Jing coerced and lured a large number of people, in fact, someone has already complained to Xiangguo, the two brothers have been warned by the family, but they dare not be so unscrupulous to harm the place, so there is no reinforcement.

"Gong Liu, my two brothers came to Qingzhou, I guess you know that it is to cut off Ran Min's wings" Yao Lan said nonsense seriously: "Now that Fei Yan and others are in rebellion, and then there are Han people who are guilty, you also declare Liu Yan to be a rebel, so" Liu Zheng announced that Liu Yan was rebellious, but he did not put the entire Han Department into it, according to the previous routine, it should be a civil strife in the Han Ministry, it was Liu Yan who killed a group of people, or someone else killed Liu Yan, Ang or no one could kill anyone who fell into internal strife, but the previous routine did not work in the Han Ministry.

"Attack, in short, take the camp first and block Liu Yan's return to the east."

Liu Zheng also said: "I have already gone to the imperial court to request the transfer of troops from the neighboring counties of Jizhou and Yanzhou, and there will be a reply in the near future." ” The two brothers of the Yao family glanced at each other, a little stunned and gloating at the same time.

Obviously, the scale of the war is getting bigger and bigger, and Liu Yan's rebellious identity will never be able to escape.

Liu Zheng is not entirely because of Liu Yan's problem, there is nothing wrong with Liu Yan being a scourge, but Liu Yan, who seems to have few troops, is just a scourge, and it is Guo Xiang and others in Xuzhou who are more dangerous for Qingzhou, that is, Shi Zun's camp.

Liu Zheng originally wanted to rely on the rapid extermination of Fei Yan and other rebels to deter Guo Xiang and others, but Fei Yan fled without hesitation, leaving the Han Department to pose as a confrontation in Xiami City, and Liu Zheng could only put the object of elimination on Liu Yan's army.

Liu Zheng expected one more thing wrong, that is, although Liu Yan's troops were small, they were not easy to bite, but it was too late to wait for the discovery of this fact, and Liu Zheng, who was difficult to ride a tiger, could only ask for "off-site help"
