Chapter 486: So Ruthless, So Poisonous [Four Watches]
People, as long as there is hope, will unleash infinite potential.
Before the life-and-death crisis, as long as there is still a glimmer of hope, there will be infinite potential, try your best to kill, and persevere.
Soon, Xiao Yu took the lead and killed under the city tower.
At the same time, he immediately shouted: "The people in the city, but Fufeng County is too guarded, Lord Cao Xiongcao?"
"Exactly, it's the official!"
Cao Xiong was overjoyed and immediately replied: "Wait a minute, the general will immediately let people open the city and welcome the general into the city." ”
"Lord Cao, you don't have to open the city...... I am the assassin of the Shifu, the general of the military division, Xiao Luoyu, who came with 6,000 cavalry as the vanguard this time, and pinned down the enemy outside the city, so as not to let them escape. Miss Baili will soon lead an army of 20,000 to arrive and attack from inside and outside. ”
Xiao Yucai didn't enter the city, and immediately said: "Before that, I hope that Cao Taishou will defend the city desperately, if the enemy army is difficult to break the city, Lord Assassin Shi will not care about the mistakes of the adults..... If the army is insufficient, the lord will order the family's private soldiers to go to the city. Anyone who does not obey will be killed, and the assassin will be held accountable after the war. ”
"Good, good!"
"Thank you, Master Thorn Shi, thank you Junshi Xiao!"
Cao Xiong is a hero, because he was deceived by Zheng Tianyi, and was approached by soldiers in the city, he didn't know how much evil anger was difficult to come out of, and immediately agreed to Xiao Yu's request.
"Cao Taishou take care!"
"After killing Liu Ziqing and destroying the army, I will definitely have a good time with you!"
As soon as Xiao Yu surrendered his hand, he immediately ordered to change the formation, and turned his horse to kill the enemy formation.
Liu Ziqing, who presided over the siege of the city, wanted to kill Xiao Yu, a schemer, so he was very close to Xiao Yu and heard Xiao Yu's words.
Seeing that Xiao Yu quickly turned around and left, the whole person was suddenly furious.
This person is so ruthless, so poisonous!
He came completely deliberately to kill, and when he talked to Cao Xiong in person, he wanted to give the defenders of Fufeng City a chance to live, so that they could desperately block it, so that they could not easily break the city.
The last plan is to let the family's private soldiers participate in the war, and if they don't cooperate, Lord Assassin Shi will investigate it to the end, which is a desperate trick.
In this way, the family Neiying, who has never found an opportunity, does not dare to act rashly at all.
Even, he will break his promise and get fat, and do his best to help Cao Xiong defend the city.
Sure enough.
After Xiao Yu changed the formation, he soon forcibly rushed out of the battlefield and walked away, which proved Liu Ziqing's guess.
Ding Wu, the cavalry captain, pursued and killed to no avail, so he had to retreat.
When he came to Liu Ziqing, he was very angry: "General, Puyang County has been broken, and there are 5,000 cavalry blocking it, and our army's rear road has been cut off, how can it be good?"
At this moment, Liu Ziqing was even more angry.
For a while, I didn't know what to do, so I had to suspend the siege first: "Quickly find out where the army of Qianzhou City is retreating!"
"Yes!"
Ding Wu waved his hand, and the scouts under his command immediately went forward.
Soon, Liu Ziqing was rewarded, and Xiao Yu's army retreated to the 'Panhe Bridge' and did not move.
Liu Ziqing was even more sure of his conjecture, Xiao Yu defended the bridge, the purpose was to force him to forcibly attack the city, and constantly let Cao Xiong consume his troops in the siege battle.
At the same time, procrastinate for time.
In order to facilitate the follow-up army to come and completely surround it.
At this moment, Cao Xiong definitely didn't see Xiao Yu's sinister intentions. Even if he can see it, he can only do it, this is a conspiracy, and there is no way to break it.
Liu Ziqing really fell into a dilemma.
Life and death are just around the corner.
Moreover, decisions must be made quickly.
Otherwise, it would be even more dangerous to wait for Cao Xiong to succeed in getting the family to help.
"Ding Wu listened to the order and ordered you to lead the cavalry and guard against the enemy army at any time. The rest of the generals, follow the generals, take the lead, go all out to break through Fufeng County, and hold on to the reinforcements!"
His mind was spinning again and again, and Liu Ziqing had no choice but to grit his teeth and order.
Puyang County was broken, and there was no food and grass in the future.
Fortunately, he had an extra heart and came to attack the city with a few days' food.
Otherwise, it will be even worse!
"Yes, I'll do as I was told!"
The generals and colonels under Liu Ziqing shouted in unison and started wave after wave of siege battles again.
As Xiao Yu expected, the Fufeng defenders thought that there were reinforcements, and they fought desperately one by one, which was very fierce. Cao Xiong also immediately arranged it to let the private soldiers and family members of the families in the city participate in the war.
Every half an hour, Xiao Yu asked the scout to report back to the battle situation, and Xiao Yu was very happy to hear Xiao Yu's eyebrows flying.
Siege warfare is a war of attrition.
Liu Ziqing commanded well, and his subordinates were also elite, but there were also people who died tragically on the ladder and under the city tower.
Rolling oil, rolling wood, rolling stones, and arrows kept falling on the siege team.
The battle situation was extremely tragic.
Let the city be full of corpses.
In particular, Cao Xiong ordered with the order of the assassin history, and the forces of the family in the city joined, making Liu Ziqing's siege even more difficult.
Everyone in the city knows that the army that assassinated Shi Baili Wenchang is outside the city, who dares not to obey?
Although the number of troops was small, it collected almost two thousand people.
Liu Ziqing's siege army is only nearly 10,000, and the ratio of two to one to attack the city is not dominant.
The fierce battle lasted until noon.
There are only more than 2,000 defenders left, and Liu Ziqing's siege army is less than 4,000. In one morning, 6,000 people died under the tower.
And all this is just because of Xiao Yu's words!
Liu Ziqing has seen ruthless, but he has never seen such ruthlessness.
"General, you can't attack anymore. ”
"Soldiers, I don't know how many waves I have rushed, and I am already tired!"
Ding Wu stood in the rear, looking at the tragic situation but unable to participate in the battle, he was very angry, and couldn't help but come forward to persuade him.
"Stop the siege!"
"Come on, transport all the grain and grass in front of the city tower!"
Liu Ziqing looked at the sky, suddenly sighed, and ordered coldly.
"Yes!"
All the grain and grass will arrive soon.
However, Liu Ziqing didn't say a word, and directly lit a fire, which frightened the soldiers under his command and almost mutinied.
The soldiers attacked in the morning, and when they were about to eat, they actually burned the grain?
Fortunately, Liu Ziqing was able to stabilize the situation thanks to his good command of the troops.
"Brothers, our army, excluding the cavalry, is less than 4,000 men. There are 6,000 brothers, lying under this Fufeng City...... Puyang County has been broken, and there are still 5,000 tigers eyeing behind him, and our army can be said to have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground. ”
Liu Ziqing shouted loudly and immediately said: "And now, the only way is to break the city." Only by destroying the city will we have food, and we will have wine and meat to satisfy our hunger...... General Ben knows that you are tired, but the enemy is more tired than we are..... You say, 'With only 2,000 men, can you stop us like tigers and wolves?'
"Kill, kill!"
Hearing this, the whole army immediately understood that Liu Ziqing was going to break the cauldron and fight a battle.
If the city is not broken, they will either be killed or starved to death.
Therefore, the only way is to break the city in a war.
"Good, good!"
"Ding Wu listened to the order, and the general ordered you to lead two thousand cavalry to block the Qianzhou army..... The remaining 3,000 people dismounted as the first wave of siege army, and if they do not break this city, they will not give up!"
Liu Ziqing's plan was forced to do it, and it was even more ruthless by Xiao Yu, and the money he got was desperate.
At the cost of 6,000 foot soldiers and 2,000 cavalry, in exchange for the opportunity to take Fufeng City.
"Yes!"
"Rest assured, as long as a war horse does not fall, no enemy will be allowed to break through to the general's rear!"
Ding Wu shouted loudly and immediately led two thousand cavalry away.
"Brothers, in the autumn of life and death, the only way to kill the enemy is to kill the enemy!"
"If you don't break this city, you won't stop dying, follow this general to attack the city, kill, kill!"
Time is of the essence, Liu Ziqing will not give the defenders any respite, and immediately lead 3,000 people with sufficient physical strength to attack the city.
Iwagawa Bridge.
Xiao Yu was shocked when he heard the scout's return.
He actually thought of a plan to break the cauldron and sink the boat, and he deserved to be the number one general in Tianqian City!
However, Xiao Yu didn't care: "Since Liu Ziqing sent two thousand people to swallow it for me, there is no reason not to swallow it." ”
"Captain Yang obeyed the order, and after engaging the enemy cavalry, he ordered you to take a detour to the rear of the enemy army to harass. Captain Zhao, Captain Lin obeyed the order and ordered the two of you to outflank the left and right wings!"
"The rest of the army is lined up here, and they shoot the enemy's charge with bows and arrows, and gradually encircle and kill, and not let a single enemy be spared...... Let's go!"
Xiao Yu knew that Fufeng City was broken.
Xiao Yu is ruthless, Liu Ziqing is more ruthless and poisonous.
"Yes!"
Nearly six thousand, against two thousand, three times the superiority of the enemy army, morale is very strong.
The real decisive battle will start immediately.
Xiao Yu knew that Liu Ziqing would quickly break through Fufeng City, and he didn't have to do anything to chase and kill, swallowing these two thousand cavalry at the smallest cost was already a big victory.
Liu Ziqing broke the city, with a maximum of five or six thousand troops, which is no longer enough.
He chose this way, it can be seen that Xiao Yu's inference is correct, Tianqian County is too guarded, and he must collude with Jinzhou to seek to seize Qianzhou.
It depends on the army that arrived in Puyang County first.
If the enemy arrives first, then Xiao Yu's situation is not good, and he will suffer from the enemy on his back.
If Baili Bing and Xie Ji arrived first, then this Fufeng County would be Xiao Yu's bag, and no one would be able to shake the results.
