The corners of Li Tiancai's mouth turned up to show a contemptuous smile, and he scolded loudly: "You wait for the barbarians to burn, kill and loot, and do all kinds of evil, it is really hard to write!" Although my Dongqian Village is only a village, it is by no means a soft persimmon to be kneaded. If you have any ability, just let the horses come, today Dongqian Village is the place where you will be buried! ”

"Haha! The lord is right, if there is a kind of let the horse come, a group of guts girls! The defenders of the city began to ridicule one after another.

The shouting officer's face turned red, and he scolded angrily: "You stubborn things, you will definitely make you all five horses and corpses in a while, and there will be no place to bury you!" ”

After speaking, he shouted and patted his horse back to the formation, and reported the situation to Ran Ze and Ruan Zhongliang, who were the leaders.

Ran Ze touched his beard and said with a solemn face: "I have been investigating the intelligence of Donggan Village recently, but the other party's counter-espionage report has almost leaked, and our side has lost more than a dozen elite scouts, but the information obtained is very limited. Today, I have seen the extraordinaryness of this Donggan village, and its strong and majestic walls alone are enough for us to drink a pot! ”

Ruan Zhongliang next to him laughed and said, "Commander Ran, how can you increase the prestige of others and destroy your own morale?" I think you have been a thief king in the Behan Grassland for a long time, and you have lost your blood, so this is a big place, and it makes you afraid.

Although the other party's turtle shell is a little hard, it is really not enough to see in front of our tens of thousands of soldiers. Since the other party is stubborn and bent on death, we will directly smash their turtle shells with a hammer! ”

Ran Ze's face was slightly stunned, and he forcibly suppressed his anger and said: "Childe, this Dongqian Village sounds like just a village, but its strength should not be underestimated. We have always focused on field warfare, and our advantage is not in attacking the city, but if the small city is filled with some lives, we can also attack it in one go. This kind of heroic city can't be filled by human lives alone, even if we can conquer it in the end, it will be a big injury, son, you have to think twice! ”

Ruan Zhongliang waved his hand and said with a smile: "Old and young, the older you get, the younger you get." Okay, Leader Ran, my king sent me to assist you in a hurry because of your slow progress, and you can see how our Yuelan warriors attack the city!

There are thorns in the fish, but if you are careful, it will not hurt and you will be able to enjoy the delicious fish to your heart's content. Haha, if I surrender without resistance, wouldn't I be a hero and useless? ”

After receiving Ran Ze's information, Ruan Dongkui, the king of Yuelan, who was so happy, was furious, and once thought that Ran Ze was afraid to move forward, and almost did not send a messenger to ask for his head.

Later, under the analysis and admonition of the ministers, Ruan Dongkui remembered that Ran Ze led a cavalry, and attacking the city was not their strong point.

Although Ruan Dongkui still didn't believe that a majestic city would suddenly emerge south of the Jingxiang River, he finally let his brother lead an infantry-based backup force and carry a lot of siege equipment.

Ran Ze saw that Ruan Zhongliang was stubborn and self-serving, did not listen to his own persuasion, and insisted on confronting Dongqing Village, so he had to retreat and said: "Childe, since you are determined to attack, can we hold off for a few days, we will first capture Fuhuzhuang, the outlying stronghold of Donggan Village, and then cross the river to conquer Jiejiang County, Fuguang County, and Jinliang County." When we get enough supplies and plunder enough people, we can gnaw on this hard bone? ”

Ruan Zhongliang said disdainfully: "Heh, such a big city has become an obstacle? Wouldn't it make us even more uncomfortable if they stabbed us in the back?

If you're afraid of death, just stand on the side, I can take such a small city in just an hour. The herald listened to the order and ordered to go down, bury the pot and cook first, and in an hour we will send a general attack, and we must take this city in one go! When the city is broken, I will allow you to plunder for three days! ”

Li Tiancai and the others looked at the enemy army under the city wall in a daze, burying pots and cooking, if there were no others, if it weren't for watching Ran Ze's thousands of cavalry staring at it from a distance, maybe Li Tiancai would have ordered to open the city gate for a sneak attack as soon as his head was hot.

Seeing that the other party was swaggering and preparing to eat and drink, Li Tiancai said to Zhuge Fengbo: "Zhuge Military Division, should we also supplement our nutrition first, and then we will have the strength to fight for a while?" ”

Zhuge Fengbo smiled, pointed at some soldiers nearby and said, "Lord, please look, they all carry some dry food and drinking water with them, and they don't need to prepare another meal." Eating too much before the war is a big taboo, and you can only eat half full at most, otherwise your combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced!

Judging from the enemy's marching formation, the opponent's commander must be a mediocre man who talks about the army on paper, and the elite cavalry will inevitably be a big trouble for us. ”

Li Tiancai nodded sympathetically, and then turned his head to look at the energetic young soldiers around him, he couldn't see the slightest fear on their faces, but a little bit of excitement that was eager to try, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

In the midst of the grinding, another hour passed, and it was almost noon, when the other party's shrill horn sounded, followed by a loud and messy footsteps.

Li Tiancai saw at a glance that in front of the queue were a large shield team, rows of stone throwers and bed crossbows, followed by a team of archers and arrows, a ladder team, a siege tower, and a crash car, which looked quite imposing.

The layman looks at the excitement, and the insider looks at the doorway, which is not false at all.

Compared with Li Tiancai's interest, Zhuge Fengbo said with a somewhat solemn face: "It seems that the general in charge of this matter still has some ability, knowing that he will first use a stone thrower and a bed crossbow to suppress and destroy our defenses, and then use archers to approach the city wall with siege equipment to suppress short-range firepower." ”

It's just that Donggan Village is built according to the standards of Xiongcheng, with city walls, city gates, urn cities, sheep and horse walls, female walls, enemy towers, war sheds, crossbow platforms, and moats.

On the basis of the defense of the whole line around the city, various key defense facilities were constructed, extending from the city gate to the left and right sides, and building an enemy tower at certain distances.

Each place can accommodate 10 or 20 soldiers, and set up bed crossbows, stone throwers, rolling wood and other heavy weapons and equipment to form a key defense, and together with the soldiers arranged behind the female wall, form a defense system that combines points and lines and responds to each other.

This system, together with the moat, the sheep and horse walls, the city gates and the urn city, formed a complete city defense system.

The moat outside the city is wide and narrow, with a width of about 3 zhang and a depth of about 2 zhang. The moat water is quoted as living water, which can effectively block the enemy's soldiers and horses and large siege equipment across the river, and cannot directly block the city wall, which has the effect of blocking the enemy's siege.

At this time, the moat bridge on the moat had already been suspended in the air, and the wide moat became a moat, which played a good role in protection.

As soon as the enemy's catapult and bed crossbow entered the firing range, Zhuge Fengbo ordered the sergeant waiting next to the stone thrower and bed crossbow: "Aim at the opponent's stone thrower and bed crossbow, and hit me hard!" (To be continued.) )
