Chapter 192: The Battle of Luoyang (I)
"Tell me, who will give this king an explanation?!" After Yang Jun returned to the camp, he called Zhang Xutuo, Cheng Yanjin and No. 2, and said angrily. With the cooperation of Shaolin Temple and his own army, he took the important place of Baiguzhuang, Wang Renyi ran away, and he didn't know where to go, but he shouldn't be able to return to Luoyang.
Seeing the anger that Yang Jian had never felt before, several people were a little scared in their hearts, and they didn't expect that there was such a secret place, although it was not enough to threaten them, but it could cause some unnecessary losses to the army, which was an omission in their work.
"Don't make any excuses with this king, let alone say that Baiguzhuang is just a point on the map, you should know what a field trip is after so many years of marching! The king sent you here to survey the terrain and find out the enemy's disposition, but now it's okay, what have you done?! "Fortunately, he stumbled into Shaolin by mistake, and he knew that there was such a place, otherwise there might be some loss.
"Yes! The subordinates know that they are wrong! The three of them had an open expression of knowing their mistakes, and No. 2 was shot purely while lying down, but he was indeed responsible, his subordinates were not doing well, and he, the boss, should also be punished.
"This time, I'll make a note first, do you want each person to get twenty big board military sticks, and then punish them after this battle!" Before the war, Yang Jun didn't want to make them unhappy, but he still had to say something to make them feel ashamed in their hearts, so that they would work harder during the war.
After another day of preparations, all matters were basically ready, and the general offensive was about to begin.
"Luoyang City is backed by the Yellow River, although it is the motive, but this moat must not be shallow, so filling the river is not a simple task, and it is not easy to build a pontoon bridge, so this first battle is to fight the battle of filling the river, this task is still handed over to General Zhang to complete, Shixin commanded the catapult to cooperate, the two gates attacked, and first gave Luoyang a dismount!"
Time passed in a flash, and the tense atmosphere descended on Luoyang City as scheduled.
"Wang Shichong! Go down to the city and surrender yourself, this king can spare you from dying, otherwise when this king breaks the city, it will be when your royal family disappears! This king advises you not to resist fearlessly, let alone cause the misery of life, I am afraid that you will not be able to bear such a crime! "On the battlefield, you should salute first and then soldier, Yang Yong has always thought that he is a gentleman, since he is a gentleman, he must always occupy the righteousness before the war.
"Jokes, it is said that King Qi Renyi has never seen it in person, but this king of this ability to tell right and wrong is now taught, to say that it is not this king who caused this life to be ruined, it is precisely you King Qi. My emperor is benevolent, righteous and virtuous, and the rule is clear, not only do you not surrender, but you raise troops to rebel, I think you are clearly coveting the throne and looking for some sanctimonious excuse! Wang Shichong is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so he immediately fought back.
"The throne? Hum! Don't say that this king doesn't mean that, even if he does, he won't come to rob him Yang Tong, he doesn't have that qualification, even if it is his turn to do this throne, do you have a king who also comes out? ! Dare to go wild in front of this king! Yang Yan was excited as soon as he started scolding, and he couldn't control his mouth when he was excited.
"You~" Wang Shichong has nothing to say, he is a self-appointed prince, if they hadn't put Yang Tong on the throne, he would not have the title of prince, so few people in this world will recognize his identity, not to mention the whole world, even few people in Luoyang City admit it, Yuan Wendu, Lu Chu and others do not admit it, of course, part of the reason is that they are both seven nobles, but he is the only one who is crowned king, and the rest of the people must be unbalanced in their hearts, but this also reflects that his title is not coming from the right way, The false king must be a defeat when he meets the real king.
"Guard it for me, come and kill one by one, come and kill one by one, and don't come alone!" The angry Wang Shichong left such a sentence and went down to the city.
"This is the time! Besiege! As soon as Yang Jun saw Wang Shichong leaving, he knew that what he said just now had worked, and he was not reckless, in fact, he wanted to provoke Wang Shichong away, which would be conducive to their siege of the city, after all, Wang Shichong still has some skills in the military, and if he commands here, the casualties will definitely be indispensable, as long as Wang Shichong leaves, then the city without the right man to defend it will be much easier to attack, at least the casualties will be less. But this is also temporary, after all, Wang Shichong is not an ordinary person, and he will soon realize Yang Yong's intentions, so Yang Yong will quickly fill in the river or erect the pontoon bridge during this time.
The whistling stones unceremoniously smashed towards the head of Luoyang City, anyway, there are many mountains near Luoyang, and there is no need to worry about the stones, it is a trebuchet to greet the defenders of the city with full power.
At the same time, Li Jing's side is also attacking the city, his task is not to break through the city, but to contain some of the men and horses, so that they can't gallop to the other gate, so the battlefield here is not much shocking scene, anyway, Li Jing is river is not filled, trebuchets are not used, but he also came to a big deal, that is, on the bank of the river set up more than a dozen siege vehicles almost as high as the city, arranged with archers, arrows keep beckoning to the city.
"Quick! Faster! "The spectacular scene of the Wanqi filling the river is staged again, filling the river is much easier than piling up the soil, just throw the sack full of sediment into the river, first throw the bamboo basket with the boulder into the river first, throw the sediment into the sack, and finally pour the soil directly into it, although the sack filled with sediment is thrown in together with the quick effect, but they do not have so many sacks in their hands, they can only fill it slowly.
"Shoot back!" Wang Shichong left, but Duan Da was still here, he knew that if he patronized and avoided the boulder at this time, then when the enemy army finished filling the river and attacked the city, then they would have no more land to defend, so at this time they could only swear to stop the enemy from filling the river.
"Archers! The crossbowman gave me a hard blow! "In a city as big as Luoyang, the city defense facilities are quite complete, and after Yang Xuangan's rebellion, the guards are even stronger, so large city defense bed crossbows are indispensable.
"Woohoo!" Arm-thick crossbow arrows were shot out, and the sound of breaking through the air resounded across the battlefield! And the target of these crossbow bolts is trebuchets!
"Ahh Ah~"
One or two may not be nothing, but dozens of crossbow arrows flew together, and the destructive power was not ordinary, and even the car and people were destroyed.
"Retreat!" Seeing that the enemy army had taken out large weapons of destruction, Luo Shixin hurriedly ordered the trebuchet to retreat. It's just that they withdrew like this, but the troops who filled the river were directly exposed to the wrath of the enemy!
