402: The Second Jiazhou Offensive and Defensive Battle (1)
402 The Second Jiazhou Offensive and Defensive Battle (1)
"What kind of joke is this?" Above the South City Tower of Yun Yu Capital, Yun Yun looked at the dense banner of the Xun family in front of him and said, "The Xun family has rebelled?"
"It's not a rebellion, is it? It's like this between families, if you have the ability, others will slap you; when you have no value, others will eat you, and any value and morality are not as rich as a piece of profit, hasn't the Zhou family experienced it once before? So this time I think it's normal. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info" Yun Yin said with a wry smile next to him.
"Don't put the Yun family's rebellion and the Xun family's rebellion together this time, the essence of the two is very different. Yun Yun said, "Is there any news from the Xun family in Jiazhou?"
"I heard that I didn't receive any letters about the Xun family, not only letters explaining this situation, but also no notice of severing relations or declaring war, which was completely unexpected. ”
"This is strange, where did the Xun family get the confidence?" Just now Situ Yixiao had already inquired clearly about the Xun family's army coming from the opposite side, which was the integration army of the Yixian region, led by the chief military officer of the Xun family's Xian Prefecture, Situ smiled and said that this person's ability was mediocre, and he was not worthy of being an opponent, it was this kind of enemy that made Yun Yun feel very strange, could it be that the other party was underestimating the Zhou family?
"It seems that it is correct not to let the Xun family's army enter Yunyu. Yun Yin said. At that time, the Xun family's army appeared in the south of Yunyu, and it was to request to enter Yunyu under the pretext of rescuing the Zhou family, but it has not received a document from Jiazhou to request reinforcements from the Xun family, so Yun Yin did not rashly let the Xun family's army enter Yunyu City, so the scene of the Xun family preparing to forcibly attack the city occurred.
"It's already strange that a Xun family's army appeared for no reason, I really can't figure out why the Yiguan County Government along the way would let them in!" Yun Yun said, "Are you in a hurry to go to the doctor!"
"I'll leave it to your niece. Yun Yin said and walked towards the stairs of the city wall, "Yun Yu court can't be left behind, so I have to go back as soon as possible to stabilize it, if there is anything needed, send someone to the court to inform you, I will always stay in the court." "Yun Yin is not good at martial arts techniques, and he doesn't know how to march and fight, so staying here will only feel that it is in the way, after all, his niece can handle it.
"I see. ”
When Yun Yin returned to the court, Yun Yu was already in chaos, originally a series of things in Jiazhou made the Zhou family panic, and then there were frequent wars around it, and now it has spread to Yun Yu who is deep in the hinterland, how can it not make the people in the city panic, the people on the street are crowding and noisy with each other, many people want to escape from Yun Yu for refuge, and more people are nailed to death with closed gates, and the streets are also sprinkled with miscellaneous things.
"Didn't the people from Yun Yu Mansion go to the street to maintain it?" Yun Yin asked the people next to him. Yunyu Mansion is the agency responsible for managing Yunyu's day-to-day work, similar to the Jiazhou Bureau.
"Now that the Xun family's army is besieging the city, most of the people in Yunyu Mansion will also go to the city tower to meet the enemy, and there are much fewer people who can maintain law and order in the city, how can they be busy. ”
"Go, send all the idle people to the streets to stabilize the people's hearts, don't mess up inside the city before the outside is breached, and leave everything to the people of Yunyu Mansion to handle. ”
"I'll go. The person next to him answered.
In fact, Yun Yin was not worried about Yun Yu, but Jiazhou on the other side, now Zhou Yanbo has not woken up, but the Han army has approached Jiazhou, Zhou Yizhi did not prevent Jiang Hongyuan's attack at all in Yecheng, Yecheng has now fallen into the hands of Jiang Hongyuan, Zhou Yizhi also retreated to Jiazhou, and began to start the defense of Jiazhou.
"If Zhou Yanbo doesn't wake up again, no one will be able to stop Jiang Hongyuan. ”
……
"Why don't you take the opportunity to attack Jiazhou?" Han Yongran asked, he thought that Jiang Hongyuan would take advantage of the momentum of capturing Yecheng to attack Jiazhou directly, at this time Zhou Yizhi did not arrange Jiazhou's defense, but it was the best opportunity.
"Don't think that Jiazhou is a city that can be captured in one go, after so many changes, Jiazhou is always on guard, we can only touch the ash of a nose when we rush to attack, not to mention that Jiazhou is not only Zhou Yiyi's personal defense, Xiao Yuan, Xiao Sheng, Zhou Qiunian, Zhou Qiuyu, Gongye Qingliu, they are all on standby in Jiazhou, especially Xiao Sheng, are you sure to win him?"
"This ......" Han Yongran didn't go on anymore, a person who could easily break through among more than 100 elite cavalry without a single wound on his body really didn't have the certainty of winning against him.
"Don't forget, the Han family has been damaged here once. Jiang Hongyuan reminded, "At that time, Jiazhou's defense was not so complete, and now that so many years have passed, this is no longer the original Jiazhou." ”
On the other hand, in Jiazhou, Zhou Yizhi was commanding the personnel to mount the bronze cannon on the stone wall castle, and the archers were already on standby at the stone wall.
"I didn't expect the war to burn to Jiazhou. Xiao Yuan on the side said.
"Jiazhou thought of this day from the beginning of its construction. Zhou Yizhi looked at the bronze cannon and said, "The Han family has already tried to get involved in Jiazhou once, and this time don't think about it!"
"Fifty-four bronze cannons, it's terrifying to think about. "After the expansion, there are twenty stone wall castles in the stone wall of the outer road of Jiazhou City, each stone wall castle can accommodate two bronze cannons, plus the seven city gates after the expansion can accommodate two cannons, a total of fifty-four.
"Two heavy bronze cannons on the lower floor of a castle and ten to twenty archers on the upper floor are a unique defence. Xiao Yuan sighed again.
"This is also thanks to the vision of the Lord, I remember he told me that the trend of the war in the future is no longer face-to-face direct fighting, but more roundabout combat strategies, try to avoid frontal confrontation with the other side, the Lord thinks so, so he asked Chu Ning and Adams to work in the Ministry of Industry to develop more long-range weapons, the Divine Fire Raven is an example. ”
"Is this also the strategy of Jiazhou's defense this time?"
"That's right, if you can't give the other party a complete head-on blow, the main force of Jiazhou will not take the initiative to attack. ”
"Roundabout attack...... Is this why the lord asked me to form a lancer...... But even so, Xiao Sheng is still not at ease, whether the garrison of more than 7,000 people can really resist the more than 70,000 people of the Han family, and I heard that there are reinforcements coming behind, after all, between the Han family and Jiazhou now, the road is smooth.
…… At night
"This is the defense of the outer stone wall that came from the outer gate. Han Xiaotian put the drawing in front of Jiang Hongyuan.
"More than fifty cannons, and archers all over the city wall!?" Han Yongran couldn't help but exclaim as he looked at it, "That's too much!"
"If you go up easily, it will directly become a hornet's nest. Han Xiaotian said.
"This is the advantage of the Zhou family, in terms of the quality and quantity of military strength, the Zhou family, which has risen in a short period of time, cannot catch up with our big families, but in terms of the quality of weapons, the Zhou family has thrown a long distance from any family in the world, the most typical example is the example of the Yun family's invasion of Baichuan, and several artillery pieces directly turned Situ Yide's painstaking defense for many days into naught in an instant. Jiang Hongyuan said, "Now the Zhou family's long-range attack ability is unmatched. ”
"How about we use the siege strategy to surround Jiazhou, and then wait for Jiazhou to be cut off?" Han Yongran made this suggestion, and Han Xiaotian also felt that it was okay.
"No, I can't. Jiang Hongyuan shook his head, "Jiazhou relies on Ye Xun Mountain in the north, we can't completely surround Jiazhou, and we can't afford this kind of consumption." ”
"It's not an attack, it's not a siege, isn't this unsolvable!" Han Yongran said.
"There is no city in the world that cannot be attacked. Jiang Hongyuan said, "I have already sent a letter to the Han family, and now we have to wait for reinforcements to come." ”
"What's the use of reinforcements? No matter how many people there are, they still go up and die?"
"Who said that the reinforcements are people?" Jiang Hongyuan said.
As he was talking, there was a sudden roar outside, followed by incessant noise and screams, and the frightened chirping of war horses, and the mixed sounds startled the three of them.
"Commander!" an officer walked in.
"What's going on? Could it be that the Zhou family attacked at night?" asked Han Yongran.
"I ...... I don't know, we just heard a burst of wind chimes from Jiazhou opposite, and then the lights on the stone wall suddenly flickered, and then many fireballs rushed over, and landed in the front camp and exploded, and now the front camp is badly damaged. ”
"Artillery!?" Jiang Hongyuan immediately realized that his position in the camp was too far ahead, and he was already within the range of the opponent's attack, "Pass the order, everyone abandon the barracks and immediately retreat!"
When the second artillery fire came, Jiang Hongyuan had already led everyone to retreat, and the second artillery fire hit the middle camp where Jiang Hongyuan was located, and if it was later, he might have died under the artillery fire of Jiazhou.
"It's dangerous...... Jiang Hongyuan looked at the burning barracks and said, "I didn't expect Jiazhou's artillery to be so powerful, not only in terms of range, but also in terms of power, the original barracks were scrapped after only two rounds." ”
"Mr. Jiang really responded in a timely manner. Han Yongran said.
"It seems that it can't be too close to Jiazhou......"
"According to the report, the Han family lost about 1,000 people. "A message came from the people of the Fallen Houses.
"What about the generals?"
"It's a pity that the chief general and deputy general of the Han family are fine, they fled the barracks before the second artillery fire. ”
"Ran away really fast. Zhou Yizhi said, "I thought I could do it once and for all." ”
"This Jiang Hongyuan is really not an ordinary person. Xiao Yuan said, "But this also exposes the disadvantages of artillery." ”
"Yes, artillery is really not good at night. ”
Two days later, the reinforcements of the Han family arrived, and now the Han family's army has a total of 90,000.
"Mr. Jiang?"
"Well, then...... Out of battle!"
