Five hundred and fifty-five? The End of the War (40)

"Fence off Mt. Chiba?" Xiao Yuan once again confirmed Zhou Yanbo's strategy, because he rarely used siege warfare.

"Hmm...... In fact, it is a bit inaccurate to say this, it should be to attack Chiba Mountain Castle first, and then surround the Mengsun Imperial Palace of Chiba Mountain, and use the houses and streets of Chiba Mountain Castle, but it can save us a lot of effort, first break through the gates of Chiba Mountain Castle, and attack the castle, if you use firearms, it is definitely not a difficult task. Zhou Yanbo stretched, "But speaking of which, what month is it now?" ”

"Hmm...... It should be soon...... Mid-Autumn Festival is here. ”

"Huh? Mid-Autumn Festival? This season should have been the time when everyone gathered together in Jiazhou, and then watched the moon and ate bean paste mooncakes, why should they be scattered all over the place for a siege network that shouldn't be? Zhou Yanbo said to himself very dissatisfied.

"Don't ask questions that don't make sense, and don't answer your own questions in a questioning tone."

"Forget it, the coming of the Mid-Autumn Festival means that this year is coming to an end, as long as you capture Qianye Mountain, and then stabilize the territory of the Zhou family, then at the beginning of the next year...... It may be a very good first year, and then there will really be no business for me, since they have worked hard to this point, you might as well work harder. ”

"Ah...... Ha? Xiao Yuan didn't understand what Zhou Yanbo said.

"What are you still standing here for?" Zhou Yanbo stared at Xiao Yuan for a while, and then said a word.

"I'm going to prepare for an attack on Mt. Chiba!"

At night, the Zhou family's attack on Chiba Mountain finally began, the tripartite army used firearms to break through the city walls guarding Chiba Mountain City from all sides, and then rushed into Chiba Mountain City along the gap in the city wall, Meng Sun's family in order to be able to keep Chiba Mountain, gathered all the combat power that could be summoned, desperately wanted to hold Chiba Mountain City, but helplessly before the Manyue Ridge had been severely hit, and later the attack on the surrounding towns of Chiba Mountain was also a succession of failures, even if it was able to summon the combat power, it was also very mixed, And the subordinates who followed the Meng Sun family and the other forces that were also the Zhou family's encirclement network have either been defeated by the Zhou family and retreated, or saw that the encirclement network was hopeless, so they led their own army to withdraw to their own territory in order to preserve, Jiazhou City has recently received many secret letters from the forces, hoping that the Zhou family can open the net, Zhou Qiandai, who stayed in Jiazhou, looked at these letters with a strong taste of compromise and perfection, and was very disgusted.

It's just that it's not Zhou Qiandai who can call the shots, after sorting out the important superstitions he sent, he gave them to Zhou Yanbo, Zhou Yanxing and Yun Yun, whether to attack or Huairou to see their own.

The resistance of Chiba Mountain City was simply beyond the imagination of Xiao Yuan and Meng Sunying, and the two people who originally thought that they would occupy the entire outer city of Chiba Mountain City before dawn were only halfway forward, and Meng Sunjun used every street and every house as a barrier to hinder the Zhou family's attack.

Zhou Yanbo also issued a strict order: no arson in the city, no artillery bombardment of houses in the city, and no indiscriminate killing of innocent people at will. Not only Zhou Yanbo's legion, but also Situ Yide's legion and Ye Qianxi's legion also issued such orders, especially Ye Qianxi, Zhou Yanbo also specially found someone to supervise him, and people with Ye Qianxi's experience may not be able to say what he will do.

"What are we doing with such a limitless limit!" Xiao Yuan gritted his teeth and said, if it weren't for Zhou Yanbo's series of strict orders, Xiao Yuan guaranteed that he would definitely be able to push the Zhou family army under the mountain city.

But even if the Mengsun army is such a stubborn resistance, it still can't make up for the gap in strength, because of Zhou Yanbo's prohibitions, so Xiao Yuan decided not to use the crowd tactics, but like attacking the Xun family, using Zhou Yanbo's strategy, the surprise attack of small troops, each unit can take care of each other, avoid other enemies from taking advantage of loopholes to surround them, and adopt flexible moves to break through the outer city of Mengsun Qianye Mountain City.

After a day and three hours, Xiao Yuan reported to Zhou Yanbo that he had forced all of Mengsun's army into the mountain city of Qianye Mountain, except for the mountain city of Qianye Mountain, where Mengsun's palace was located, the rest of the parts basically fell into the hands of the Zhou family.

"The second step is to surround Mengsun Palace." Zhou Yanbo said and took out a piece of rice paper that had been folded a lot, "This is the way." ”

Xiao Yuan took the paper and opened it to see, Zhou Yanbo's method of encirclement is really unique, if he really follows this method, Xiao Yuan feels that it is not certain whether an ant can pass through this encirclement.

"Immortal master, you don't even spare an ant!?"

"It's an exaggeration, I just don't want to let one go, but then again, is the outer city of Chiba Mountain safe?"

"It's safe, all the areas have been checked, there is nothing unusual, many people who didn't have time to evacuate, we also helped evacuate, and now there is no one else in the outer city except for the Zhou family."

"That's good." Zhou Yanbo said and walked into the carriage, "You can do the things of the encirclement separately, I am going to a place in the outer city now, since it is safe, then there is no danger." ”

"That...... Even if it's a thorough investigation, this is a battlefield......"

"Shouldn't the Lord be on the battlefield?" Zhou Yanbo asked rhetorically.

After finishing speaking, Zhou Yanbo drove the carriage slowly and leisurely in a fixed direction, which was Qiu Hao's mansion, Zhou Yanbo thought that at this time, Qiu Huan should also follow Meng Sun's family into the mountain city, so the mansion should be empty, Zhou Yanbo didn't want to find Qiu Hao, it was just a whim.

The following Yin Die opened the door of Qiu Yu's mansion, and there was no problem with the carriage parked outside, and as soon as he entered, it was still the shadow wall, and it was still the carving of Qiu Yu in the mountain house.

"It's weird." Zhou Yansu looked at the shadow wall and said, "It stands to reason that the shadow wall can be regarded as the façade of a mansion, in short, it can give a very important first impression to the people who come in, but this shadow wall seems to have not been cleaned for a long time, and a layer of ash has accumulated on it." ”

"Originally, the big families didn't care about many things in the mansion, not to mention that Qiu Hao was a typical machine spring idiot, so he wouldn't care about these things, and although his mansion was very large, there seemed to be only one or two servants, and it was normal that they hadn't cleaned up." Zhou Yanbo said as he bypassed the shadow wall and walked into the mansion.

Following the memory, Zhou Yanbo came to the hut where Qiu Yu lived in the bamboo forest, this should be the place where he made machine springs all year round, the door seemed to be unlocked, and it opened as soon as he pushed it, Zhou Yanbo walked in.

"No one." Zhou Yansu, who followed closely, said.

"It's normal." Zhou Yanbo looked at the unfinished spring parts on the table, so he stepped forward and picked it up, only to find that his hands were already covered with dust, and the table was too, it seems that no one has cleaned it for a long time, and Yindie looks at it for at least a month.

"What's ......" Zhou Yanbo couldn't help muttering, Qiu Yu would never leave the spring he made on the table like this and get dusty, something must have happened here.

"Little goose?"

"Mao'er, you go to Meng Sunying and borrow fifteen people to come over." Zhou Yanbo said.

Just when Yindie went to call someone, Zhou Yanbo and Zhou Yansu came to the main hall to check.

"Blame the old man." Zhou Yansu touched his forehead, "This house should be very big, right?" Why is there only a main hall and a small bamboo house, and there are no other buildings. ”

"I didn't check it properly when I came last time, and I don't know." Zhou Yanbo looked around, like a small bamboo house, it was covered with dust, it seemed that something was really wrong here. Soon after, Yindie came here with fifteen people, and Zhou Yanbo asked to go through every corner of the main hall and take a closer look.

Yin Die suddenly found a machine spring, which was a secret door, and after opening it, he led fifteen people to enter to check, while Zhou Yanbo and Zhou Yansu stayed outside, after all, Zhou Yanbo's injuries were not yet healed.

"How?" After Yindie came out, Zhou Yanbo asked.

"A very bad thing, all the places connected by the secret passage have the situation of the departure machine spring news, judging from the scene, Qiu Hao's home was raided, it should be done by Meng Sun's family, as for the reason, I don't know, Qiu Hui opened all the organ news in the house in order to avoid the raid, but unfortunately it still did not escape, it looks like a ghost house."

"Raid it......" Zhou Yanbo said, "Wait until Chiba Mountain settles down, let Qiu Ning come over." ”

"But it's a good thing." Yindie said.

"What do you mean?"

"It seems that things have definitely been more than a month or two in the past, in other words, now that Qiu Yu is not here, it is impossible for the mountain city to have too much agency news to hinder us, and it will be much easier to capture the mountain city."

"Yes, in the end, Qiu Yu still inadvertently helped us."

……

"It's ...... What's the fuss? At night, Han Yongran looked at the encirclement strategy planned by Zhou Yanbo, using wood to build a wooden wall around the mountain city that could be patrolled by walkers, and the wooden wall was connected to many houses across the street, which could be used as a castle for defense, or as a place for soldiers to rest temporarily, and then add torches at every short distance, Han Yongran looked like a light that would not be extinguished completely surrounded the mountain city, in this case, thousands of pairs of eyes were staring at the mountain city all the time.

"It's not encirclement, it's a psychological strategy." Han Yongran said.
