Chapter 141: Isn't Zhao Yun's legend just meant to be defeated?
Can you still play like this?
The three armies were dismantled and reorganized directly, the cavalry attacked the city, and the infantry defended the city?
It was the first time in his life that he had seen such a way of fighting, and it was the first time he had encountered such a situation.
Lu Yi really couldn't imagine that Liu Bei and them would be able to come like this, and he could only watch Zhao Yun merge with the three-way cavalry in Nanpi City, and then leave in the dust.
It wasn't that he didn't want to go out of the city to stop them, and then lead them to a decisive battle on the hillside he had prepared for the cavalry, but he didn't have a chance to get out of the city at all.
Because Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao had already built the camp directly outside Nanpi City, surrounded the entire Nanpi City with a camp, and specially built those wooden arrow towers higher, so that they could cover the troops coming out of Nanpi City.
Once Lu Yi and his troops leave the city from Nanpi City, they will receive Zhang Fei's covering blow head-on.
Of course, it is not this kind of strategic deterrence that can make Lu Yi give up going out of the city and find a way to lure Zhao Yun back to come back for a decisive battle, he has also made an attempt, setting off with the first dead soldiers, and using heavy shields to resist the arrows, but on their advance route, there are already a large number of foot archers waiting for them, wanting to have a suburban foot soldier battle.
In military warfare, it is mostly foolish to abandon a city and defend it, and it is even more foolish to give up the defensive advantage of the city itself to engage an enemy on an equal footing with an enemy who is twice as large as you.
But the problem is that they didn't launch any siege at all, but looked at the posture, as if they wanted to build an outer city for Nanpi and expand the capacity of Nanpi's city, while Zhang Fei's Red Armor Army and Zhang Liao's Yanmen Army looked at the Koji Rebel Army in Nanpi City with a smile on the wall of the outer city, and greeted each other in a friendly manner every day.
Hey, in fact, Koji Yi really guessed right.
Chen Chen really felt that the geographical location of Nanpicheng was quite good, and it could be developed as a new development town and as a military town, but of course he did not participate in the specific suggestions this time.
It's Lao Guo.
Perhaps only an elderly person like Lao Guo will be more calculating and calculating some strategies that can kill multiple birds with one stone.
After all, middle-aged people like to calculate and calculate their accounts well.
Therefore, according to Lao Guo's arrangement, Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao will slowly build the city wall around Nanpi City, and then they can directly use it as the outer wall of Nanpi City in the future, which can be regarded as infrastructure construction here in advance.
It's just that this is also Liu Bei's camp, and their strength is here, so they don't have to worry about too much danger at all.
They are still their own people behind them, and they are not worried that someone will come to sneak attack at all, after all, in the land of Jizhou, there are too few people who have the courage to face them.
Lu Yi is now besieged in Nanpi City, and Yuan Tan is even more with his army to retreat in Fuyang City and dare not raise his head, now Zhao Yun also led the cavalry to surround Fuyang City, and there is a defense line built by Xu Shu to assist Xu Huang in the south, no one can break through their defense line to come here to attack Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao.
So in fact, it is Lu Yi who guards the inner city, and Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao who guard the outer city.
The most ideal must be that everyone does not affect each other, everyone waits to see the news of Fuyang City, if Fuyang City is quickly taken, then the ownership of Bohai County will be clear, and there is no need for them to fight.
But if the stalemate is a little longer, and Yuan Shao and the others quickly counterattack after receiving the news, they may still have a chance to fight back.
No matter how unwilling Lu Yi is now, he can only stay here now, otherwise once he impulsively leaves the city, it will easily become his own siege, and Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao will defend the city.
Then it will become a turtle in an urn.
But speaking of which, in fact, Lu Yi still couldn't understand how the efficiency of the engineering construction soldiers in Liu Bei's camp was so high, and they could build such a long city wall so quickly, although it is true that Nanpi City is not big, and now their so-called outer city is just a framework built with wood as the main body.
But this speed of construction was an eye-opener for Koji.
It was the first time he had seen a team with this level of construction.
Of course, he didn't know that Chen Chen had already collected a lot of craftsmen in Bingzhou, and asked them to improve the methods of battlefield infrastructure construction, so as to reduce the steps, but he was still able to carry out effective fortification construction well, just like building a solid wooden city wall like this.
It was also their unexpected performance that caught Lu Yi off guard at all, directly lost the initiative, and fell into the pit he buried himself because of his strategic vision.
Originally, he was going to be the main battlefield commander of this Bohai County defense battle, but he could only be a spectator.
This feeling is simply not too uncomfortable.
And it is this kind of direct from the grand strategy, their own arrangements and layouts are completely frustrated, and they are solved by the other party with this wonderful method, which makes people even more depressed and want to vomit blood.
Since then, there has been a figure on the wall of Nanpi City that stands there every morning looking east.
There is one thing to say, and it is not easy to be righteous.
But they just maintained a strange state of peace here in Nanpi City, and there were no conflicts or battles, and they went to and from work every day to patrol and change shifts, and the harmony was terrifying.
On the other side, Zhao Yun quickly rushed to Fuyang City with the cavalry of the three major armies.
Yuan Tan in Fuyang City had actually already received the news that Lu Yi's progress was not going well, but he was really not ready to face a world-famous general like Zhao Yun.
In particular, they also brought over 30,000 elite cavalry, basically bringing over the three major special cavalry that made a fortune in Liu Bei's camp.
Now they can only bless Zhao Yun, they don't know how to attack the city with cavalry.
Well, it is estimated that Zhang Wu was also like this when he was taken down.
Yuan Tan didn't mean to blame Lu Yi.
At least Lu Yi still dragged Zhang Fei and Zhang Liao and their troops.
The effect is not small, but it seems to be different from what was originally expected.
Zhao Yun straddled the Jade Lion of the Night, he stood on a small hill that was barely tall, looking at the heavily guarded Fuyang City, he suddenly felt a little emotional.
I don't know when I started to get involved in siege warfare frequently, but isn't it more of a field battle that I'm good at?
Could it be that something is wrong?
He always attacked the city with cavalry, and he has not been defeated?
"General, the surrounding area has been reconnoitred, and there is no trace of enemy troops."
The scouts sent by Zhao Yun came back and proofread the information they had obtained, and finally came to such a conclusion, Zhao Yun was still cautious, although if Yuan Tan went out of the city and ambushed the army to fight with him in the field, it would be more in line with his own mind, and he would not be cowardly at all, but he still had to investigate the situation well, be prepared, and not make mistakes.
"It's just that how are we going to attack this Floating Sun City?"
Zhao Yun's adjutant packed up the clues and news handed in by the scouts, and looked at Fuyang City in the distance with some worry.
Unlike the defenders of Zhangwu City, who were not prepared to deal with Zhao Yun, the defenders of Fuyang City have always been worried about Zhao Yun leading troops to attack, after all, according to the original arrangement of Lu Yi, Zhao Yun will either take the White Horse Army to surround Nanpi City, and then the first army of Lu Yi will fight the three armies, or Zhao Yun will take the White Horse Army out to attack the city, no matter which one it is, in fact, Fuyang City must be prepared, otherwise it will be easily broken by Zhao Yun.
After all, the White Horse Army in the clouds is considered to be famous in the first battle, and no team has the courage to say that it can take so many cities in such a short time like the White Horse Army.
Although it is true that it is because of the grassland, the siege will be easier.
But if Zhao Yun wants to say that his White Horse Army is the cavalry that knows how to siege the city the most, then no one will definitely object.
"Hit Fuyang City, don't be in a hurry."
Zhao Yun looked at the Yuanzi flag raised high at the head of Fuyang City, he took out a longbow from the side of the jade lion in the night, and took out a wolf's tooth arrow, stretched out his bow and took the arrow, aiming at the Yuanzi flag.
Three points and one line, hold your breath.
Zhao Yun's fingers were gently separated, and the longbow drawn into a full moon in his hand quickly deformed, and the bowstring returned to its original shape, and the arrows on the bowstring shot out, shooting straight towards the Yuan Ziqi on the head of Fuyang City.
Before everyone could react, the rope of the big banner was shot off in an instant, and the banner fluttered in the air and fell from a high place, and the soldiers on Fuyang City looked confused, not knowing what was going on.
Only......
It's kind of bald.
Why did your own military flag suddenly fall down?
And the flagpole is still good, but only a bare flagpole stays there, which makes people feel quite embarrassed.
Someone hurriedly picked up the flag that fell on the city, studied it carefully, and found that the thick rope that tied the flag was broken, and it looked like it was torn off in an instant, and this kind of crack didn't look like it was broken naturally anyway, it was smooth and flat.
But it fell suddenly in broad daylight, and no one saw the arrow, and no one saw anyone climb up and cut it off with a knife.
Don't?
Is this a warning from heaven?
It proves that the victory of the Bingzhou army is unstoppable, and it is actually against the will of heaven to block the pace of the Bingzhou army to unify Jizhou now?
I have to say that people in this era are still very superstitious, especially the power system of this world is quite strange and metaphysical, and everyone's superstition is even deeper.
Just like that, when Zhao Yun's cavalry army had not yet approached the city, there were some small riots on the head of Fuyang City, and the rumors about this battle against the sky and estimated defeat began to spread among the Bohai Navy.
Of course, there must still be some members of the navy lurking in Bohai County.
One thing to say, the navy army is worthy of Chen Chen's own team, and all of them are actually ghosts.
But also, they are all spies, undercover agents, how can they not be shrewd, those who are not shrewd have long been on the grave.
So this is not Zhao Yun's idea, but the idea of the water army in the city itself, which can be regarded as a borrowed topic, and the effect is surprisingly good.
Zhao Yun actually wanted to raise the morale of his army and let them feel the main tactics of this siege.
Well.
It's pretty simple.
The Taihang Black Cavalry carried out heavy cavalry deterrence in the front, and once the Bohai Navy wanted to go out of the city to block their plan, the Taihang Black Cavalry would definitely educate them to be a man.
As for the Wolves and the White Horse, they acted together.
The task is very simple, it is the previous set, run around Fuyang City, spread out a little when running, use the advantage of light cavalry to avoid the archers on the city wall, and at the same time throw at the city, with the least cost to inflict the most wounds on the enemy.
And once the enemy army is shot to the point that they dare not show their heads on the city wall, won't the siege of the city become simpler directly?
Zhao Yun's idea is not complicated, it is quite practical.
There are only a few links in the execution, and in order to better arrange the siege matters, he asked Guo Jia to bring the siege tower over when he rushed over to surround Fuyang City together, and brought the siege tower by the way, anyway, he was not in a hurry, let the White Horse Army first consume a wave around Fuyang City, and then wait until the tower arrived, suppress the fire on the city wall, and then use the tower to transport the black horse to the city wall.
How exciting would that scene be for the heavy cavalry to rush up on the city walls?
Zhao Yun himself hadn't seen it yet, so he was quite interested.
Watching the Yuan Ziqi at the head of Fuyang City slowly fall in the air, Zhao Yun rushed down the hill with his horse, and after crossing this hillside, he could face Fuyang City directly, and the defenders of Fuyang City could also see their own cavalry.
Then let yourself surprise them!
Of course, Zhao Yun was not rushing blindly, he was rushing towards Fuyang City after estimating the route of progress.
As Zhao Yun jumped out of the hillside, the scouts of Fuyang City also observed that vigilance was useful, although none of the scouts who were sent out in fear had returned, so they did not let the scouts out of the city, but looked around from the arrow tower.
When Zhao Yun appeared, the dazzling white was so angry that it was difficult for people not to pay attention.
But when they sounded the alarm bells, and carried the news of the enemy's attack to the defenders, they were in despair when they saw the steady stream of cavalry that began to emerge from behind the hillside.
This force, or the elite of the enemy army, is scary no matter how you look at it, right?
When the three armies assault together, the Taihang Black Cavalry maintains the impact of the heavy cavalry, and the White Horse Army and the Wolf Cavalry spread out on the side, from the Fuyang City, it is extremely shocking.
It's like a wolf suddenly appeared on a hillside.
When everyone thought it was a group of lone wolves, it raised its arms and shouted, and countless wolves appeared behind it, like a sea of wolves.
Just like when Ma Chao was in Nanpi City, he didn't expect that Lu Yi's foot soldiers would immediately attack the city after arriving at Nanpi City in a row, completely ignoring the physical strength of the soldiers.
The defenders of Fuyang City did not expect that the enemy's cavalry army would charge at this time, and the scale was so huge, although they understood that they must be acting first, rather than really charging cavalry to attack the city, but they were still shocked by this momentum.
The defenders on the city wall also asked people to report the news of Yuan Tan's enemy attack.
Zhao Yun's movement was really big, and the movement of 30,000 cavalry rushing up, in fact, Yuan Tan in the city government could already feel the ground shaking.
But in fact, Yuan Tan didn't know what to do at this time.
Maybe I should go up to the city wall first?
Yuan Tan felt that if he appeared on the city wall at this time as the main general, he might be able to bring morale help to his own guards, and make them feel his determination to live and die with them.
If the morale is strong enough, then maybe it is not impossible to prevent the impact of Zhao Yun.
After all, they were cavalry sieges.
When Yuan Tan received the news from the defenders, he made up his mind to go up to the city wall to see the situation outside, and then personally supervise the battle.
However, he always felt that if he went to the city wall alone, it did not seem to be particularly safe.
So he plans to call all his think tanks, and go up the city wall with him to see the situation, there are many people can still strengthen morale, and even be able to observe the weaknesses of the enemy army through the advantage of condescending vision, what if the gentlemen of the think tank have a way to solve the current problem?
The more Yuan Tan thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible, so he packed up in the mansion and put on his golden armor, which was given to him by his father, hoping that his performance on the battlefield would be as dazzling as this armor.
To be a general, you must not only have great force, but also great wisdom.
Yuan Tan used his father's words to warn himself that he believed that as long as he calmed down and faced the enemy army well, he would definitely be able to successfully defend Bohai County.
Even if the other party is Zhao Zilong, a famous general in the world who has fought against the first person in the world.
Isn't Zhao Yun's legend just for people to overcome?
Isn't it?
In this world, there is no absolute winning general, except for the champion, after all, there is only one champion candidate in the world.
Yuan Tan encouraged himself, and when he put on a suit of armor, he looked indeed dazzling, handsome and chic, and the gold color of his body also showed his extraordinary.
He left the mansion, and Guo Tu and others outside the mansion were already waiting for him.
As soon as the eldest prince sent the notice, everyone came over in a hurry, and they had been waiting here for a long time.
"The eldest prince is an extraordinary person today, brave and mighty, with the eldest prince personally commanding, this battle will be won!"
Guo Tu is indeed an old sycophant, as soon as he saw Yuan Tan's British costume, he came up and was a sycophant three times, and the corners of Yuan Tan's mouth began to move upward.
"Let's go, go up to the wall."
Yuan Tan waved his hand, quite a general's demeanor and majestic bearing, he rode on a BMW, and rushed to the west wall of the front, and the members of his think tank also followed closely behind him, which can be regarded as extremely magnificent.
