Chapter 204 - The time is not as good as the place, and the location is not as good as the people!
Pengcheng.
Tall walls, wide moats, and gusts of autumn wind. Nature gives people an incomparably bleak scene.
At this moment, Xiang Yu, who was standing in front of the formation, looked at the familiar Peng Cheng, and felt a lot of emotion in his heart.
Although he is no longer the Xiang Yu he used to be, the tall city tower in front of him still holds thousands of thoughts in Xiang Yu's heart.
Pengcheng is the place where he defeated the 560,000 coalition army of the princes with an army of 30,000. It is also the battle with the most disparity in the number of troops in history.
In this battle, "myself" not only annihilated hundreds of thousands of Han troops, but also captured all the old and young of Liu Bang's family, but unfortunately the heavens were not beautiful, and suddenly the wind was blowing, so that Liu Bang found the right time to leave the city in chaos, Liu Bang's life was afraid that he had already accepted it!
Looking at the four-foot-and-five-foot city tower, Xiang Yu's face was full of pride at the moment. Theoretically, he crossed over and attached himself to the ancestor, and he did not personally participate in the battle of Pengcheng.
But in the eyes of others, he is now Xiang Yu. It is the legend of this era, the king of this era! Even the Emperor! Naturally, you also have the capital to brag about!
"The defenders of the city, Xiang Yu is here! Hurry out of the city and surrender, this king can spare your lives! If not, if you go into the city, you must use the halberd in the hands of the first level of sacrifice! ”
At this time, Xiang Yu was wearing gold armor, holding a Tianlong Breaking City Halberd with more than two feet, and a black horse with a crotch half a head higher than ordinary horses. From the inside out, it exudes a domineering momentum, which makes people feel majestic and dare not offend.
However, what responded to Xiang Yu was a swift feather arrow. Although the feather arrow was menacing, it was like a moth to a fire in front of Xiang Yu, fragile and weak, and with a slight movement of his hand, he knocked the feather arrow to the ground.
Xiang Yu saw that the other party didn't buy his own account, and he actually shot arrows and sneak attacked. I can't help but be a little annoyed.
"Humph! Who put the cold arrow upstairs! How dare you come out and admit it!" Xiang Yu was about to swing the halberd in his hand, pointed to the city tower and shouted.
"Why don't you dare?!"
As soon as Xiang Yu's words fell, there was a person standing behind the female wall. But seeing that this person was extremely strong, there was a reddish birthmark on his face, which ruined his entire face.
"Who are you?!"
"Humph! If you don't change your name, you can't change your surname! Wen Chou is also! ”
"He's Wen Chou? System, give me a look at the four dimensions of Wen Chou! When Xiang Yu heard this, he immediately gave a query instruction to the system in his mind.
"Ding! At present, Wen Chou has reached its peak: force: 96, intelligence, 63, command: 89, internal affairs: 28. ”
"The force of 96? No wonder he was the second master's ghost. This guy died unjustly! ”
"Wen Chou? Believe it or not, I can take your head as soon as I join us! Xiang Yu looked at Wen Chou and said playfully.
"Hahahaha! How? Does the overlord of Western Chu, who can lift the throne, also like to talk big? Wen Chou was asked like this, and after a pause for a moment, he smiled.
In fact, as to whether he is Xiang Yu's enemy or not, Wen Chou is naturally very clear in his heart. As the saying goes, if you lose, you don't lose the battle, at this moment, you are in front of the two armies, how can Wen Chou show weakness?
"Good! Then let's wait and see if I, Xiang Yu, have big words! Xiang Yu didn't bother to say much at this time, even if he ordered the siege of the city.
Of course, in the first siege of the city, Xiang Yu only sent 2,000 people to test the deployment of troops in the city. Sure enough, after a while, 2,000 people were repulsed by the Qi army in the city, and they also lost more than 500 people.
"King, it seems that the Qi army in this Peng City has sufficient baggage and is well-trained!" Liu Bowen looked at the army with heavy casualties and said.
"Well, this Wen Chou really treats feather arrows as mud, and I am afraid that there are no less than 3,000 feather arrows shot out!" Xiang Yu nodded.
"That's it! Order the troops to retreat to camp five miles away! Siege of the city, then do thoughts! "Xiang Yudang ordered the troops to be withdrawn.
Wen Chou saw that Xiang Yu was no longer forcibly attacking the city, and he didn't want to let his vain exploits slip away like this, so he took his Qi army to provoke Xiang Yu and the Chu army.
Xiang Yu turned a deaf ear to this, although the Chu army was extremely angry in his heart, but when he saw that Xiang Yu ordered the withdrawal of troops, he could only step up the retreat.
.............
After dinner, Xiang Yudang even asked people to call Liu Bowen to discuss the capture of Pengcheng.
"Sir, do you have any opinions on the capture of Pengcheng?"
After Liu Bowen sat down, Xiang Yu asked.
"Well, since the king asked about Zaixia, then let me tell you my opinion. As you can see, it is not difficult for the king to take this Pengcheng. When Liu Bowen heard this, he immediately stood up and arched his hand.
"Oh? What is your opinion? ”
"Hahaha, my lord, according to today's observations, this Pengcheng city tower is extremely tall and impregnable. If you want to rely on a strong attack to take Pengcheng, I'm afraid it will be as difficult as the sky! ”
Facing Liu Bowen's words, Xiang Yu only felt extremely painful, after all, in his memory, the wall of Pengcheng was so tall, and it was also due to himself.
At the beginning, when he set the capital of Pengcheng, the height of the wall of Pengcheng was only two feet and five feet high. At that time, because he thought that the city tower was too short, Xiang Yu ordered to increase the height of the city tower, which was only increased from the original two feet and five feet to the current height of about four feet and five feet.
Don't underestimate the two zhang who go here, if the two zhang of this era are converted to the society in which they lived in their previous life, they will be more than six meters high! In other words, the height of Pengcheng's tower has reached more than 12 meters!
And outside Pengcheng, there is a moat that is four meters wide and six meters deep. If it is attacked, I am afraid that the ten thousand Chu troops under my command will not even be able to fill the moat.
Xiang Yu now regrets not being at the beginning, and feels that when he strengthened the city tower, he was simply lifting a stone to shoot himself in the foot.
"Although this Pengcheng occupies a favorable location, the march and battle are based on the right time, place and people! Don't forget, the king! Pengcheng was also the place where the king set his capital! As the saying goes, the time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people! When Liu Bang invaded Pengcheng, because he was greedy for pleasure, he did not harm the people in the city. The hearts of the people in the city can naturally be in their hands!
Since you can't attack it, it's better to try the attack! When the time comes, when the attack is launched, Peng Cheng will be at his fingertips! Liu Bowen smiled and said his opinion.
After hearing this, Xiang Yu was overjoyed. Liu Bowen is right! After all, the power of the masses of the people is very strong! Otherwise, how could Tang Taizong Li Eryou say: Water can carry a boat, or it can overturn a boat?
Xiang Yu then adopted Liu Bowen's idea, handed over the matter to Liu Bowen to deal with it with full authority, and also gave him a death order, three days later, he must see results!
Regarding this matter, Liu Bowen naturally agreed to come down, and even began to prepare.
