483 The Third Jiazhou Offensive and Defensive Battle (3)
Four hundred and eighty-three? The Third Jiazhou Offensive and Defensive Battle (3)
On the morning of the next day, Zhou Yanbo and Situ Yixiao stood on the south city gate, who knew when Jiang Hongyuan would choose to attack Jiazhou. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"What did you talk to Jiang Hongyuan about last night?" Situ asked with a smile.
"Actually, there is nothing, to put it simply, old friends haven't seen each other for a long time, so it's just a reminiscence in Wuli Pavilion."
"That's it?" Situ smiled and asked, "I don't believe it." ”
"But that's what it looks like, Su Yu'er is also very clear about the whole conversation between me and Jiang Hongyuan, you can ask her, and you will understand that what I said is true."
"That's very strange, you and Jiang Hongyuan won't do meaningless things, like this is just a reminiscence of the old situation, how can it happen, you really didn't see anything abnormal from Jiang Hongyuan's conversation?"
"There are abnormal situations, but I can't think of what it is, it wasn't cold last night, he had to say that the weather was very cold......
"It's cold?"
"Probably because everyone has a different sense of temperature, but has this guy experienced anything strange in the past two or three years? My tongue has become more and more venomous, and I have been dumbfounded several times last night. ”
"What is this abnormal? Did you use your brain last night? In Situ's eyes, what Zhou Yanbo said shouldn't be a problem.
Just as Zhou Yanbo retorted to Situ Yixiao, a sound reached the south city gate, the sound was not small, and then a burst of fire reflected Zhou Yanbo and Situ Yixiao's field of vision, and a second later, the stone wall not far from Zhou Yanbo exploded, and the wind and waves almost made Zhou Yanbo unable to open his eyes.
Looking at the damaged stone wall, and thinking about the familiar voice just now, Zhou Yanbo immediately thought that this was the Han family army using artillery.
"The Han family army is artillery?"
"I heard that imitation artillery was imported from the West." Situ smiled and said, "It's similar to the Furlong cannon of the Shenhuo Battalion." ”
"Do they want to use artillery to destroy the stone walls of Jiazhou directly?"
"If you use artillery to attack the Jiazhou stone wall, then the stone wall is just a fragile piece of paper, and the thickness of the stone wall can't withstand the attack of artillery at all."
"The stone walls of any city in the world cannot withstand the attack of artillery." Zhou Yanbo took out a telescope and looked at the artillery in front of the Han Jiajun on the opposite side and said, "I just used ten tiger squat cannons, and the city wall of Xibai instantly turned into a pile of broken stones, so for future wars, no matter how thick the city wall is, it will be useless." ”
"But this cannon just now seems to be a test, grinding the gun in battle?" Zhou Yanbo saw that the other party hadn't fired immediately after that, so he couldn't help but say something.
"Wouldn't it be nice to take this opportunity to rush up with cavalry and destroy the opponent's artillery?"
"The Zhou family is not good at cavalry at all, and besides, I didn't prepare in advance, you saw that the Han family army on the opposite side put the pikemen behind the artillery, and was preparing to deal with our cavalry."
"If you don't do something, the stone walls in Jiazhou will really be gone, and if you want to repair them, it won't be able to be completed in two or three months."
"Order the artillery inside the Stonewall Castle to return fire." Zhou Yanbo put down the telescope and said.
"Is it enough for the distance?"
"How can the half-hung artillery that is transformed from Western artillery be compared with the genuine artillery of Jiazhou? After the second Jiazhou offensive and defensive battle, the city defense of Jiazhou City is not immutable. ”
As he spoke, all the artillery in the castle opened fire in unison, and with a deafening sound, there were explosions one after another on the opposite Han Jiajun's place.
"It's too much." Situ Yi put down the telescope with a smile, "Are you using the right artillery?" Not only did they rarely hit the artillery of the Han family's army, but many of them hit the people standing behind the artillery. ”
"No, it's hard to hit something like artillery accurately if you don't practice it regularly, especially with new artillery." Zhou Yanbo bit his nails and said.
"New artillery?"
"After the opening of the trade route of Linji, Verlaine brought a new fire ** paper from the West, anyway, I can't understand those foreign characters, Verlaine's translation is 'long and heavy cannon'."
"What's that?"
"I heard him say that the barrel is lengthened, which will increase the range and power of the gun, but it will also become a little heavier."
"This is the method you used to deal with the Han family's artillery?"
"Well, after all, this kind of artillery has the longest range."
Saying that, there were bursts of artillery sound in the distance, it seemed that the Han family army was about to officially attack, Zhou Yanbo realized that he was still in a dangerous position, and sure enough, a cannon directly hit the city gate of the south city gate, and the entire city tower was shaking violently.
The strong shaking of "Oops...... made Zhou Yanbo lose his balance and fall to the ground.
Situ smiled and held on to the city wall without falling: "This is too dangerous, I have to leave the south city gate." ”
Zhou Yanbo hurriedly jumped off the south city gate with light skills, and landed on the ground to see that the city gate had been damaged by artillery, and there was no problem with such a city gate even if it didn't use siege vehicles.
"This is the iron city gate...... Zhou Yanbo muttered as he looked at the destroyed city gate.
"Get down for me!" Situ smiled and looked at Zhou Yanbo standing in place in a daze, and immediately rushed forward and pressed his head to the ground, and he also lay on the ground, and another shell exploded not far from the two people.
"You guy is dead! Why are you staying where you are!? After the explosion, Situ smiled and let go of Zhou Yanbo's hand and said.
"It's dangerous......" Zhou Yanbo was provoked into a cold sweat, and then the castle began to counterattack, this time it seemed to be adjusted, destroying the two artillery pieces of the Han family's army.
"Sir!" At this time, Zhou Yizhi walked over, "Is Mr. okay?" ”
"I'm fine, has the Han family attacked?" Zhou Yanbo asked.
"No, it's just an artillery attack."
"Obviously, they want to break down the stone walls of Jiazhou City first."
"The castle's counterattack can't last long, and the new artillery attacks have a longer interval than the normal artillery."
"You can do it first, and Lord Si Ming and I will return to Fengyin Tower first." As he spoke, Zhou Yanbo began to walk back, touching his chin as he walked on the way.
"What are you thinking?"
"Why is Jiang Hongyuan's attack so simple and straightforward this time?" Zhou Yanbo said, "Hasn't he been using the method of combining virtual and real before? Why can't I see the other side of him this time, if the artillery attack is empty, then where is his real attack? ”
"Can't you see that?"
"There is no movement on the other side except for artillery, I really can't see it for a while, and now I need Luo Yingshe to investigate the news in the Han family's camp."
"Until now, Jiang Hongyuan has not issued a new order."
"That can only mean that Jiang Hongyuan may have already started to act, where is it......"
……
Although the sound of artillery fire can be heard from time to time in Jiazhou City, there is no sound of Han Jiajun's attack, which makes everyone guarding Jiazhou even more tormented, who knows when the other party will come up and stab you.
In the evening, Yindie and Su Yu'er returned to Fengyin Tower to see Zhou Yanbo, and they all said that Han Jiajun did not have any abnormal movements, which made Zhou Yanbo puzzled, and felt that the front was like a fog shrouded in front of him.
At noon the next day, Luo Yingshe informed Jiang Hongyuan that there was still no other movement.
"It's getting a lot more interesting." Zhou Yanbo said.
"Fluttershy, what are you looking at?" Su Yu'er looked at Yindie and asked, at this time, the three of them were on the Xijian Bridge, and Su Yu'er found that Yindie was always staring at Ying Jiang and kept looking.
"It's weird...... "Is it because my eyes are bad...... How do I feel that the water level of the Ying River seems to have risen? ”
"Water level?" Hearing Yindie say this, Zhou Yanbo and Su Yu'er also looked at Ying Jiang under the bridge, but the two of them couldn't see anything wrong.
"You can't be mistaken?" Su Yu'er said.
"My home is next to the Fengyin Tower, as soon as I go out, it is this Yingjiang River, whether there is any abnormality I know best, but ...... I feel like the water level is really rising. ”
"The rainy season in Jiazhou hasn't come yet." Zhou Yanbo said.
"I believe in my feelings, it's better for me to go to Ye Xunshan with Yu'er to check it out." As she spoke, Yin Die took Su Yu'er's hand and walked towards the north of Jiazhou City.
Not long after Yin Die and the two left, Zhou Yizhi's military situation came from the front, and the Han family began to attack, and the situation from Zhou Yizhi was not optimistic, after all, the outer stone wall had been damaged by artillery, and it was impossible to resist the Han family's attack, so Zhou Yizhi was ready to retreat to the old stone wall.
"One of the unique features of Jiazhou City compared to other cities is that every river can be used as a stone wall to defend the city." Jiang Hongyuan looked at the smoke coming out of Jiazhou City and said, "It's not like other cities, it's not enough to break through the city gate, but in turn, this can also limit the guards of Jiazhou, no matter how the defense is arranged, the pattern will not change, if the outer stone wall is breached, the next place to intercept us must be the old stone wall." ”
"Han Qiyi is ready there." Han Yongran said.
"So, let's get started, water attack Jiazhou." Jiang Hongyuan said.
……
Zhou Yanbo, who was standing on the Yumi Bridge, suddenly found that the water level of the Ying River was constantly rising, just like Yindie said, this was not an illusion.
"Someone is making a move in Ye Xun Mountain!?" Zhou Yanbo immediately realized this, if it was a water attack, then the old stone wall used to defend the Han family army would intercept all the stagnant water that came down upstream and could not be drained, and then the old stone wall would be impossible to defend at all.
But it was too late to send a message to Zhou Yizhi, and the water attack seemed to have begun.
"Little goose!" Yin Die and Su Yu'er then returned to Yumi Bridge with light work.
"Little goose, someone intercepted the flow on Ye Xun Mountain and poured all the water into Jiazhou, there are a lot of them, and Yu'er and I can't stop them."
"It's Han Jiajun."
"It should be."
"It's a great trick."
