Chapter 293: Siege

Yingzhou Guogong Mansion

Shen Zhi went in, immediately called for invitation, and asked, the servant took him all the way to the study, and whispered: "Grandpa's illness is nothing, it's just that he has a little cold, but the doctor said that he needs to recuperate for a few days, but the news that came just now is not good, and Grandpa smashed the cup, and his face has changed." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Shen Zhi was shocked and said, "Got it." ”

When he arrived outside the study, he heard a cough, Shen Zhi stood outside, and waited for the Marquis of Jibei to calm down before he moved in and saluted: "The minister greets the lord!"

Jibei Hou closed his eyes and pointed to the chair: "Sit, you also know the situation, right? Pei Ziyun did not lose a soldier and a general, even in the next seven counties, only Luo You died in battle, these officers and generals, when they saw me, shouted loyalty, as soon as they met the officers and soldiers, they immediately surrendered, the end is shameless and hateful, and he deliberately did his best to fight the army, fight the winner, destroy this army, and then raise troops to take the whole state, what do you think?"

"Guogong, no, although there are only 30,000 imperial troops, they are all armies of a hundred battles, and our army only has 10,000 old battalions, which are scattered all over the country to defend against attacks. ”

"And there are only 5,000 old battalions in the state, and 5,000 are county soldiers, which are barely qualified, but the new 50,000 are completely strong, and they fought in a hurry, and it was good to win, but not to win, I'm afraid. Shen Zhi said uneasily, in the eyes of the Marquis of Jibei, this result was the disloyalty of his subordinates and surrendered without a fight, but he studied it painstakingly and came to a terrifying conclusion - this was all caused by Pei Ziyun's strategy and tactics.

Of course, this can't be said, the pressure on the Marquis of Jibei is already very great, and it can't be increased anymore, but he just persuades: "My lord, Qibei County has food and soldiers, and you can hold on, our new army has not yet been completed, as long as you fight for a period of time, you can annihilate the enemy army in one fell swoop." ”

"Now, it's better to bear with it. ”

Jibei Hou felt uneasy for a while, and after a long time, he said: "It's just like that." ”

The voice fell, the light in his eyes gradually dissipated, and he closed his eyes and said, "Mr. Shen, I hope the big thing can go according to what we think!"

Qibei County, Qing

The sun fell, with a warm breath, Pei Ziyun led the generals forward, and the army behind them gathered, with a smile on their faces, showing ease.

"The real person is really a good means, the eight counties cruised, and all of them surrendered in less than half a month, and this Qibei County immediately became an isolated city, and the number of our army not only did not lose, but also increased by more than 6,000. ”

Another general answered: "When I saw the real person for the first time, the last general was ashamed and had thoughts, but these days we are really happy and convinced." ”

It's a compliment, and it's also true, Pei Ziyun didn't care, and smiled: "There is also a mansion, it's not easy." ”

"If there is a real person, it will be struck by thunder!" these people said, their expressions relaxed, the eight counties have fallen, there are 7,000 soldiers, and the strength has increased by 17,000.

The scout battalion rushed to the front at this time, dismounted and saluted: "Real person, there is no enemy ambush in the ten miles ahead, the investigation has been completed, and General Chen has already greeted him." ”

Yingzheng's face was dark, he was on the march to probe and sun, his body was mighty, his speech was strong and powerful, and he had military characteristics.

"Good!"

Pei Ziyun listened and said, "Continue to investigate, pay attention to the surrounding twenty miles at any time, and report to the team immediately if there is any movement." ”

"Yes, real person, mark it and go on patrol again. ”

"Jin Ze, the spy we sent, will the Marquis of Jibei in Yingzhou send troops, or will he continue to garrison the city?" Pei Ziyun looked at the person behind him and asked.

A Taoist who followed him jumped down and saluted: "Boss, there is news from Yingzhou that the Marquis of Jibei is stepping up military training and has not set out to fight." ”

When the surrounding generals heard this, their faces became relaxed, Ying Zhou did not send troops, and his pressure was reduced.

At this moment, Chen Yong had already greeted him, and knelt down with a dozen generals: "The last general respectfully invites the real person to raise the account!"

In the past ten days, 16,000 plus 10,000, plus more than 10,000 soldiers from the three nearby counties, a total of 40,000, the army is at its peak and murderous, which is different from when he first came.

Although the Chinese army's tent was repaired for a short time, the county map was painted on the wall, the sand table was in the middle, and the four treasures of the study room were placed on a file in the middle.

These are still ordinary, on the two shelves behind the tiger skin chair, one is for the gold medal of "Ru I am coming", and the other is for the sword of the Son of Heaven, with the authority of life and death.

The generals entered one by one, Pei Ziyun walked into the big tent, and more than 50 people in the tent knelt down on one knee with a "shout", and the armor suddenly clanged: "See the real person!"

"Get up, Uncle Zhongqin, please sit down!" Pei Ziyun looked around, stretched out his hand to invite, and asked, "Is the county king okay?"

"The king of the county is well. Zhong Qinbo said with a bow, and slowly sat down.

Pei Ziyun bowed his head: "I summoned you today, it is that the eight counties have been leveled, although there is not much resistance in these eight counties, but there are still soldiers and Taoists, once someone attacks, you can report it immediately, there is no worries, and you are not afraid of someone raiding, which creates a good environment for attacking the county town." ”

"Now convey my order, bury pots and cook under the city, distribute meat, eat and drink enough, and prepare to attack the city. ”

"Yes, real people. All those present answered with a loud voice, and some of them went out to give orders, and in a short time the smoke of the cooking rose faintly.

Pei Ziyun asked again: "The siege machinery of the three counties that I ordered was delivered, but they have all been delivered?"

Zhong Qinbo stood up at this time and replied: "Real people, they are all here, a total of 20 arrow towers, 30 catapults, 60 brand cars, and 120 ladders. ”

"In addition to these, there are also 3,000 stone of grain, and the meat that the three counties also transported to add meals is always 3,000 catties. ”

Zhong Qinbo said, secretly convinced Pei Ziyun, it takes time for the three counties to transport these, almost half a month, and Pei Ziyun did not wait for this half a month, and he leveled the eight counties at once, just in terms of time, there is no waste at all.

"Okay!" Pei Ziyun "snapped" the case, and his eyes became gloomy: "Pass my order, shoot in the letter of persuasion, and also, you wait for the county order, and immediately set an example to call for surrender." ”

"Yes, real people. "The people who were called responded together.

A general commanded, took an arrow and shot it at the city, the long arrow pierced the sky and landed on the city, startling a group of people, crowded, looking at this situation, Pei Ziyun couldn't help but sigh: "Good arrow!"

Then the county commanders of the eight counties, as well as seven or eight county lieutenants, led the headquarters to march through the county with banners, shouting loudly: "I am the county commander of Shanshui County, I am the guerrilla general Li Yue, I will abandon the darkness and turn to the light, the imperial court is gracious, and will not add to the crime, and let me wait for the guilty to make meritorious contributions!"

"I am the county commander (school captain) of the Raven County, the county commander (school captain) of Zhennei County, the county commander (school captain) of Nanrong County, and the county commander of Hongshi County (school captain), and the eight counties of Qibei County have all surrendered. ”

"You have become a lone army, the court has 100,000 soldiers, and if there is resistance, it will be crushed immediately. ”

He hung his head to inspect again: "Luo Yu of Wuyu County resisted stubbornly, and the whole family was killed together, do you want to end up like this?"

He also openly shouted: "Whoever can turn against Kaicheng, regardless of military and civilian officials, not only will they not be guilty, but they will also be promoted, and those who are unofficial will be promoted to three levels in a row." ”

Seven thousand people marched past, mighty, in the county town, everyone was nervous, and the people's hearts were scattered, but there was a military spirit that resisted and did not fall, and an arrow was shot down in a moment, showing a clear attitude.

Pei Ziyun looked at it and sneered: "Siege." ”

"Knock knock!"

The drums sounded, the sun gradually centered, and Pei Ziyun rushed to the high platform.

"Maintain military discipline!" the military judge kept running on the battlefield, hissing and shouting, maintaining order.

Dense trebuchets, moved to the front line, the arrow tower pushed over step by step, distributed in front of the long mile wall, only to listen to a command, thirty trebuchets bounced boulders, towards the city, landed on the city only to listen to the roar of "boom, boom, boom".

Pei Ziyun looked at it, followed by several generals behind him, looked at the situation in the city, took the horsewhip in his hand, and said with a sneer: "For this attack, this place is Dong Man's own soldiers, although he relies on his own soldiers to fight, but as long as there is a big loss, he will not be able to suppress it, and he may be able to do something." ”

"Yes, real people. ”

Pei Ziyun paced a few steps and asked, "Where is the scout camp?"

"Marked in. "The scout camp is answering loudly.

"Although there are eight counties as a barrier, you can't be careless, you scatter people, once an army appears within fifty miles, immediately light a beacon fire to send a message. Pei Ziyun ordered loudly.

"Yes!"

The scout battalion was getting on their horses and leading the brigade out.

"The stone thrower increases the stone throwing, and the ladder is prepared. Pei Ziyun said.

"Dong Dong" with the sound of drums, the army swarmed up, dense ants rushed up, dozens of hanging arms to go, huge stone bullets whistling in the air, smashing on the city Heng, bouncing and rolling, will flash away as the human body, weapons, facilities indiscriminately swept and crushed.

Under the shield cart, the soldier with a knife in his mouth copied the medallion that had just covered the small half of his body in one hand, and climbed the escalator with the other hand, staggering back and forth.

Not to be outdone, the gold juice, stones, and snipers kept falling, and people kept screaming and falling, but more people made up for it.

Under them is a brand car, this card is very thick, a layer of cowhide, a layer of iron, small masonry hit it does not move, large masonry hit it rolled, firewood thrown without burning, erected on the two-wheeled cart, can provide shelter for the soldiers behind the car, at this time also the armor soldiers hold high the iron shield, stand behind the hand-pushed baffle, keep staggering up, cover the archer in the shield wall.

"Shoot!" The sound of the bowstring ringing continued, and batches of arrows were thrown from a rain of arrows, and many people always felt that the direct shot was powerful and that they had to shoot accurately, but in fact, on a large-scale battlefield, the projectile was even more terrifying.

An arrow shot twenty meters high and fell in mid-air, because the iron tip was heavy, it automatically formed a sharp downward sharpness, and it was continuously accelerated by gravity, which was actually terrifying.

An egg can be smashed out of the bag when it falls on the fourth floor, it can be smashed on the eighth floor, it can be smashed to death on the eighteenth floor, and it can be killed as long as it hits on the twenty-fifth floor, not to mention the arrow?

I saw that the continuous projectile, arrived in the air, turned down, and fell on the city like rain, if the veteran could still dodge, the new soldier had no experience, and suddenly there were countless casualties.

It's just that the veterans defending the city are also ruthless, constantly sniping with arrows, and the lime of the boiling oil cannon rains down, smashing into the crowd of ants attached to it.

"Ahhh

At this moment, each moment both sides consume and devour a large amount of life.
