"General Dongfang, looking forward to the stars and the moon, you are finally here.
In the camp of the Xiliang Army, Pei Yuanshao and Ma Dai were very enthusiastic.
Dongfang Qiang is the war commander of Yidu County, as long as he arrives, the small Xiling City can be broken overnight.
"Hehe, it's very rare that the two generals can raid Zigui with 20,000 cavalry and successfully drag Xiling.
Next, let the defenders here see how the Wuling army attacked the city for one day. ” Dongfang Qiang is determined to win Xiling, and the faster the better.
Zigui has been included in the territory of Yizhou, and the next one is this Xiling.
"Can't the cavalry attack the city, but the general has an idea, I don't know if it's feasible."
There are many cavalry here, and if you can't participate in the siege, there will be a waste of troops.
So Zhao Yun had a bold idea.
"If Zilong has any thoughts, just say it."
Xiling City, to be honest, is similar to Yiling.
The city wall is not very tall, and it is in disrepair, and it is estimated that several rounds of fire bombs will be knocked down.
However, Zhao Yun has an idea, and Dongfang Qiang is willing to listen to it.
It's good to eat all over the world with one move, and now that outsiders are present, it is very necessary to show the diversity of the tactics of the Wuling Army.
Wu Shun's intention to merge Xiliang peacefully, a general like Dongfang Qiang who likes to use his brains can see it.
"Generals, there are 20,000 Xiliang Iron Cavalry and 2,000 Qilin Cavalry, a total of more than 20,000.
If it is not useful in siege warfare, it is a waste of troops.
Of course, the Suzaku Legion alone can break through the city, but it will be slower.
If the cavalry can be used as the main force for the siege, coupled with the powerful long-range cover of the Suzaku Legion, it will be easy to break through Xiling City."
"The cavalry is attacking the city, Zilong wants to build soil to attack the city" Listening to Zhao Yun put forward a rough idea, Dongfang Qiang knew the tactics he wanted to use.
Cavalry is the main force of siege, and it is a good tactic to siege the city.
As long as it is used properly, it can indeed deter the enemy and quickly take the city.
However, this tactic requires a lot of earth, and a dirt slope is built on the edge of the city wall that allows the cavalry to rush up the city.
Generally, when there are many defenders and the defense is tight, no one will use this method of fighting to find death.
However, now that there is the Suzaku Legion, there are more than 20,000 elite cavalry, and there are not many defenders in Xiling, so it is possible to build a soil slope.
"Generals, what is the tactics that Zilong said?"
Dongfang Qiang asked the generals present for advice.
"The cavalry is the main force to attack the city, General Zilong is powerful, and the last general thinks it is feasible" Pei Yuanshao directly raised his hand to agree, and now Ma Dai is left.
The cavalry, as the main force of the siege, to put it bluntly, is to let them take the lead in the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
He wanted to oppose it, but with the current situation, the tactic was very good.
"I'm okay with that."
In the end, Ma Dai also "agreed" to the tactics proposed by Zhao Yun.
"Well, in that case.
According to what Zilong said, the earth is attacking the city."
Dongfang Qiang directly ordered: "Zhao Yun" "The Last Will Be" "I order you to lead the Suzaku Legion, and the Qilin Legion will collect the sand and soil needed for the siege within two days, and fill it with a cloth bag."
"The Last General Commands" Since it was a tactic proposed by Zhao Yun, let Zhao Yun collect and pack the sand by himself.
"General Vostok, what do we need to do" Ma Dai asked cautiously.
In front of him is the undefeated general of the Wuling Army.
"General Ma, let the soldiers eat and drink enough, and it will be up to you to attack the city in two days.
After the city was broken, the general should personally ask for credit for General Ma."
"Then thank you General Dongfang for your kindness."
If you want others to work hard, you can't be less rewarded.
Next, Dongfang Qiang gave the soldiers of the Xiliang Army a meal, and entertained them with good wine and meat.
It made the soldiers of the Xiliang Army smile happily, and they were grateful to Dongfang Qiang who gave them improved food.
Although they are elite, it is difficult to eat meat in normal times.

Eating meat every day is the treatment only available to the elite legions of the Wuling Army.
Today, Xiliangjun also experienced the elite treatment of other people's families.
Under the command of Zhao Yun, more than 30,000 people from the two major armies dug everywhere, and the soil bags needed to build the soil slope were prepared in two days.
On Xiling City, the defenders looked at the dense enemy outside the city, and they panicked.
God knows if this Xiling City can still be defended.
After everything was ready, Dongfang Qiang did not waste time and directly ordered the catapult to bombard.
Shieldmen and archers quickly moved into the assigned positions.
In between catapult bombardments, archers were needed to suppress the castle and protect the soldiers who built the slopes.
Boom, boom, boom The firebombs fell and rolled, so that the defenders of the city did not dare to raise their heads.
"Up" Zhao Yun gave an order, and the soldiers who had already prepared carried the soil bags and rushed forward.
In order to reduce weight and increase running speed, the soldiers were bare-chested.
Coming and going, under the constant back and forth of the soldiers, a dirt slope began to slowly take shape.
When the defenders in the city saw what the Wuling army was doing, they were shocked.
Under the reprimand of the generals, they launched counterattacks one after another, in a vain attempt to prevent the Wuling army from building an earthen slope.
"Archers, suppress cover" The defenders fought back desperately, knocking down many of the soldiers carrying dirt bags.
Dongfang Qiang immediately ordered the archers to suppress, and never gave the defenders a chance to fire a salvo again.
"The shield comes forward" In order to reduce the loss, Dongfang Qiang asked the shield soldiers to carry the shield and run near the dirt slope to form a shield formation to block the deadly arrows for the soldiers of the earth slope.
This rogue behavior of the Wuling Army made the defenders desperate.
Catapults bombarded so far, there were so many archers, and in the end they covered with shields.
It's like someone else slowly walking towards you with a knife, and you want to resist, but you find that no matter how hard you try, it's in vain.
Two hours under the efforts of the officers and men of the Wuling Army.
A slope of earth that extends to the head of the city is cast.
The catapults had stopped attacking, and only the archers were still holding down the enemy.
The shieldmen had retreated, holding their archers at bay.
"General Ma, are you ready?"
"General Dongfang, rest assured, the soldiers can't wait."
"Zilong" Dongfang Qiang asked again.
"General rest assured, Xiling City will be broken today" The soil slope was built, and Zhao Yun was full of confidence.
Dongfang Qiang saw that the cavalry soldiers were in good spirits, especially Zhao Yun's fighting spirit.
So it was ordered: "Offense" "Kill" Thundered The cavalry, as the main force of the siege, was dispatched "The Wuling army has attacked the city, and they all rose up to fight back for me.
The archers, all stood up and fought back.
Roll the stone and throw it at me."
The defending generals heard the movement outside the city and knew that the cavalry was about to attack the city.
In a battle of unequal strength, resistance seemed somewhat futile.
The defenders stood up and counterattacked, and the first to eat was a volley of archers from the city.
Although there were a lot of rolling stones and sassalwoods rolling down the dirt slope, smashing and injuring many war horses.
But a total of more than 20,000 cavalry dispatched, how could that few casualties be stopped Zhao Yun carried the gentian gun, pulled the reins of the horse, and the war horse under his crotch knew the master's intentions, jumped up directly, and fell towards the city wall.
Before landing, the two front hooves also trampled two enemy soldiers to death.
The gentian spear swept straight into the air, making a lot of room for the subsequent cavalry.
Zhao Yun led the Qilin cavalry to gallop around the city.
"Zhao Yun is really heroic" Ma Dai looked at Zhao Yun, who was unstoppable in the enemy formation, and secretly sighed in his heart: "There are so many fierce generals in the Wuling Army" As far as Ma Dai knows, the fierce generals of the Wuling Army include Zhang Xiong, Wei Yan, Qu A, Shamoke, Gan Ning, Guan Hai and others, and now there is another Zhao Yun.
Now Ma Dai is less and less optimistic about Ma Teng's operation in Xiliang
