Chapter 365: Everything is ready, give me a siege!
"System Elf, move your muscles and bones, let's start the big summon. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" The potter took a deep breath and excitedly ordered the system elf.
The first summoner, the potter, wants to summon Fan Sui.
Prime Minister of Qin, famous statesman, strategist, commander 70, armed force 42, resourcefulness 84, politics 94.
Fan Sui was originally a native of Wei, because he was tortured in Wei and absconded, he fled to Qin and defected to the Qin king, and proposed to the Qin Zhao king the strategy of distant friendship and close attack, so that the Qin state gained the initiative in diplomatic strategy.
In the Battle of Changping, the two armies of Qin and Zhao faced each other for three years, and it was Fan Sui's envoy who also divided the plot, inducing King Zhao to use Zhao Kuo, who had no actual combat ability, to be quite a general, so that Bai Qi could break the Zhao army in Changping.
Fan Sui is proficient in governance and good at strategy, and he is good enough to assassinate the history of any state and stand alone.
The potter summoned Fan Sui and appointed him as the assassin of Xuzhou, and Starry Night went to Xuzhou to preside over government affairs and assist Le Yi in his fight against Sun Ce.
The second heroic soul summoned by the pottery merchant is called Han Anguo.
Famous minister of the Western Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, 73 commanders, 61 armed forces, 86 resourceful, and 90 political.
Han Anguo, this person, is rumored to be well-read since childhood, outstanding eloquence, was originally a powerful strategist under the command of King Liang Xiao, during the rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms of Wu and Chu, he became famous for his meritorious service in defending the city.
When Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Han Anguo became an important minister of the imperial court, and was greatly appreciated by Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.
The only thing that dissatisfied Emperor Wu of Han was that in terms of strategy against the Xiongnu, Emperor Wu of Han advocated attacking, while Han Anguo always advocated continuing to make peace.
Han Anguo was good at defending but not attacking, both resourceful and politically strategic, and the pottery merchant just used him to go to Huainan, which was on the defensive, and appointed him as the assassin of Yangzhou, making him in charge of the government and acting as Xu Sheng's backing.
The third heroic soul to be summoned by the potter is named Fan Li.
Wu Guomingchen, political army, military strategist, economist, commander 75, armed force 61, resourcefulness 87, political 91.
This Fan Li was originally a businessman, a semi-middle monk assisted the Yue King Goujian, after Gou Jian was defeated by Wu Wangfucha, assisted Gou Jian Taoguang to raise obscurity, persuaded the farmers and mulberries, and accumulated the valley, not to mess with the people's merits, not to rebel against the sky, the relatives and ministers, and the righteous people, so that the Yue country reached the point of political communication and harmony and national strength in 20 years.
When the opportunity to attack Wu was ripe, Fan Li persuaded Gou Jian to raise troops in time and destroyed Wu in one fell swoop.
Today, the potter is new to Qingzhou, and is in need of a capable minister to calm the people, collect people's hearts, and restore the economy.
The potter then ordered Fan Li to be the assassin of Qingzhou, and immediately rushed to Qingzhou to replace Zang Ba to deal with the affairs of a state.
The pottery merchant first summoned Le Yi, a hundred commanders, and then summoned a few political wizards, and almost all the hundreds of cruelty and benevolence points collected were exhausted, and they were cleared.
But it's worth it, summoning so many people is enough to relieve him of the danger in the southeast.
After Le Yi and the state assassins were dispatched, the potters sat back and relaxed, and began to focus all their efforts on how to break through the Yecheng in front of them.
The potters did not launch a fierce attack on Yecheng at the first time, but used Zhang Liang's strategy to divide their troops to capture the cities around Yecheng and cut off the connection between Yecheng and the outside world.
The potter then ordered Peng Yue to lead an army to break through Shexian in the west of Yecheng and cut off the connection with the state, and then sent Fan Hao to lead a group of soldiers and horses to break through the Lieren City in the northeast direction and cut off the connection with Yuan Xi in the direction of Nanpi, and half of the grain and grass supply in Yecheng was cut off.
The two grain routes were cut off, and Yuan Shao could only rely on the only grain route from the north to transport the grain and grass from Guangping, Julu, Anping and the northern Hebei counties to Yecheng to supply military supplies.
It's just that after the potters transferred 10,000 soldiers and horses, only 60,000 soldiers and horses remained, which was not enough to complete a comprehensive siege of Yecheng, and only the grain road in the north could not be cut off for the time being.
In order to support the supply of grain and grass in Yecheng, Yuan Shao had no choice but to levy grain, and ordered the county soldiers of the northern counties of Hebei to go deep into the townships and villages to levy rations from the people.
For a time, the counties of northern Hebei were full of complaints, Yecheng had not yet been breached, and the hearts of the people had begun to fall to the potters.
It's just that when the battle comes to this point, Yuan Shao can't take care of a lot, as long as he can hold Yecheng, he will do anything, and he is afraid of the discussion of Youyoukou.
Unconsciously besieged the city for two months, Yuan Shao finally survived the summer, and the time entered the autumn.
The Central Plains region ruled by the potters was rich in harvests, and tens of thousands of grains and grasses were constantly sent to the front line, and the granaries on the front line of Liyang had already been piled up.
On the other hand, on the other hand, although the grain harvest in Hebei this autumn was good, the people of the northern Hebei counties, because they suffered from Yuan Shao's harsh administration, either fled north to Youzhou or south to the ruling area of the pottery merchants, and the crops in the counties were all wasted, but a large area of grain was poor.
In this way, the grain and grass that can be transported to Yecheng have decreased but not increased.
After several months of siege, the potters decided to launch a frontal attack on Yecheng, taking this hinterland of Hebei as soon as possible and ending the protracted Northern Expedition.
If you want to break through Yecheng, you must first break through the horn camp set up by Yuan Shao in the direction outside the city.
The next day, at dawn.
In the besieging Liang army camp, the smoke of cooking rose and the smell of meat filled the air, and hundreds of sheep were slaughtered and distributed to the soldiers of the battalions to boost their morale.
The 60,000 soldiers of the Liang Army, eating meat and drinking wine, and after enjoying this sumptuous meal, they were all full of spirit and high morale.
After a full meal, tens of thousands of soldiers lined up in the camp, one by one, their blood boiling, ready to move, waiting for the order to attack.
Suddenly, in the solemn camp, the soldiers were boiling.
In the eyes of all the people, the potters were dressed in Xuan armor, carrying war knives, and wearing red cloaks on their backs, towering like gods, riding horses in front of their eyes.
In those pair of eagle eyes, the fire of slaughter and self-confidence was raging, which made the soldiers of the three armies awe-inspired.
On the school platform, the potter raised his eyes and swept away, looking at the iron armor, the swords and guns were like a forest, such as dark clouds, the military spirit was vast, and the murderous spirit was soaring.
The killing intent of the soldiers of the Liang army has surged to their throats, like a tiger in a cage, desperately wanting to use killing to calm down.
"The warriors of my Liang army, fight with me and raze the enemy camp to the ground!" The potter's sword pointed at the enemy city and shouted.
Woo woo woo -
The sound of the horn rose to the sky, the flags in the camps rose and fell like huge waves, and tens of thousands of soldiers left the camp in an orderly manner, like countless rivers, converging to the southwest of Yecheng, and groups of infantry and cavalry horses slowly came out, and finally converged into a sea of ironclad forests.
Heaven and earth are slaughtered, and the wind and clouds are gradually rising.
Above Yecheng, Sergeant Yuan looked at the invincible momentum of the Liang army, and all of them trembled in their hearts, and their hands holding the weapons were trembling.
At this moment, Yuan Shao also frowned, his pale face was covered with thick clouds, and he muttered in his mouth: "Shang'er, you have been going to Bingzhou to borrow troops for several months, why haven't you come back, and you, Xi'er, Gan'er, why didn't you lead your troops and horses to save Yecheng, what are you all thinking......
The camp of the horns to the west.
Standing on the front line of the camp gate, his eyes were gloomy, his brows were condensed, and his eyes were a little unconfident.
On the left and right, the Yuan sergeants guarding the camp were also nervous and uneasy.
Under the successive defeats of the Yuan army, the Yuan army has suffered from a deep fear of the Liang army, and every time he faces the Liang army, he will be afraid without a fight.
Two hundred steps before the enemy camp, the potter immediately crossed the knife, like a blade of eyes straight to the enemy camp, without a trace of fear, seeing that the time has come, without saying a word, raised the knife and shouted: "Attack, give me to level the enemy camp." ”
"Flattening the enemy camp-" Beside him, Jing Ke led more than 100 personal guards, roaring in unison, roaring like thunder.
"Flatten the enemy camp—" 60,000 soldiers roared in unison.
This rumbling killing sound, like thunder in the sky, shook the heavens and the earth, and even Yecheng was shaken slightly, and in the camp in the city, the soldiers of Yuan were all terrified.
Tom tom!
The drums of war rumbled, shattering the eardrums of the enemy and shattering their courage.
Xiang Yu, Huo Quai, Fan Xu, Peng Yue and other generals each led their headquarters to kill violently.
More than a dozen phalanxes formed by sword and shield men, pikemen, and crossbowmen of various arms slowly advanced towards the southwest enemy camp.
In an instant, nearly 30,000 attacking troops advanced to within 100 paces of the enemy camp.
"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows to me!" The enemy camp shouted eagerly.
In the enemy camp, more than 1,000 sharp arrows rose into the air and rushed towards the advancing Liang army.
Almost at any time, the crossbowmen of the Liang army also fired arrows in unison.
More than a hundred steps apart, the buzzing roar of breaking through the air suddenly sounded, overshadowing the sound of trumpets and drums, swallowing up all the sounds in heaven and earth.
The rain of arrows like flying locusts intertwined in the sky to form a sky net covering the sky, and slammed into the two armies.
The screams were loud.
The Liang army has a large number of crossbowmen, and there are nearly 5,000 crossbowmen, and all of them are crossbowmen under the command of Yang Youji, and they have the advantage in number and lethality, so they naturally easily overshadow the enemy's arrows.
However, the lead move was also well prepared, and most of the soldiers were equipped with large shields, but they could barely withstand the fierce attack of the Liang army's arrows.
The soldiers of the Liang army, who had been in a hundred battles, used their strong will to forcibly suppress the fear in their hearts, bravely faced the rain of arrows, and moved forward bravely.
The trap camp led by Gao Shun formed a fish-scale shield array, opened the way at the front, and moved forward bravely in the rain of arrows.
A moment later, the Liang army attacked the echelon, passed a distance of more than 100 steps, and killed the enemy camp in the near front.
As the sound of war drums reached its high-pitched apex, more than a dozen army formations burst apart, and 30,000 soldiers rushed wildly, roaring and surging towards the enemy camp like a tide.
In the direction of the middle road, the trap camp led more than 10,000 sword and shield men, took the lead in rushing to the trench on the outskirts of the enemy camp, threw all the soil bags on their backs into the trench, and filled it in an instant.
Thousands of soldiers of the Liang army rushed over the filled trenches like a tide and rushed to the outer antlers in an instant.
The brave sword and shield bearers, holding their shields high to resist the arrows, wielding their broadswords, slashed the antlers like crazy.
Behind them, 5,000 crossbowmen of the Broken Army kept firing arrows at the enemy camp to suppress the enemy's counterattack.
The lead is galloping back and forth on horseback, scolding those crossbowmen, withstanding the rain of the Liang army, and constantly firing arrows at the Liang army who cut down the antlers.
The antlers of the camp wall, the sharp arrows in the sky, like falling stars, obscured the entire sky.
In the rain of arrows, one of the Liang soldiers fell, and another soldier did not hesitate to make up for it, and continued to slash at the antlers of the enemy camp.
In their hearts, there is only one thought - they will not give up if they do not destroy the enemy camp!
Under the fierce attack, the triple antlers on the periphery of the enemy camp have been cut down in a blink of an eye, and as long as the last one is cut down, tens of thousands of Liang troops can directly crash into the camp wall.
Seeing that he tried his best, he still couldn't stop the onslaught of the Liang army, and in desperation, he had to shout: "Quick, light a beacon fire for me and ask the lord for help." ”
In the heart of the camp, three wolf smoke rose into the sky, and Yecheng could see it clearly.
Yuan Shao's face was as gloomy as iron, his brows had condensed, and he knew that he was about to be unable to resist the move, so he had no choice but to ask him for help.
"Lord, if the camp of the horns is lost, Yecheng will become a lonely city, and it must be saved." Frustration reminded him.
Yuan Shao hesitated for a moment, slammed his fist against the female wall, and shouted: "Where is Wen Chou, I order you to lead all four thousand iron cavalry to attack, kill from the east gate, attack the enemy's flank, and force the pottery thief to retreat." ”
When the order was passed, Wen Chou hurriedly took his gun and went down to the city, opened the east gate, and led four thousand light horsemen to kill and run, and made a detour to the flank and rear direction of the Liang army.
