Lu Jiang's rhetorical question touched Song Ming's heart: "General, if there is a large influx of Zhou soldiers, instead of seizing Loess Town again, it is better to enter Junzhou and wait for reinforcements." ?? ? Loess Town is lost, Shannan Dongdao is just passive, if Junzhou is lost, this... β
After graduating from the Ma Military Academy, it is difficult to say exactly how much this military quality has improved, but this strategic vision has improved a lot. Therefore, Song Ming was very aware of the importance of Junzhou.
Lu Jiang smiled: "General Song's consideration is not inconsiderate, but you may have missed a little. β
"Missing a point?" Song Ming didn't quite understand.
"General Song, you forgot that Li Shumi personally went to Xiangzhou and brought two divisions of men and horses. Whether Zhou Bing has a follow-up force, we really don't know. However, we still have follow-up troops. I just released the carrier pigeon to inform Lord Lee. After Lord Li received the news, he must have immediately waved his army into Junzhou. As long as Junzhou holds out for two days, our army will arrive. Therefore, Junzhou is actually foolproof. β
Lu Jiang squinted his eyes and looked outside the tent, and said slowly: "General Song, do you know why we want to seize Jinzhou? β
"One is to save Shu, and the other is to enter the pass."
"Yes, but now that Zhou soldiers are raiding Junzhou, our plan to seize Jinzhou is already difficult to achieve, unless... Unless Guo Rong and the others are really confused by our mobilization of the Junzhou garrison, thinking that it is more than enough to take Junzhou with 10,000 people. In this way, the Golden State is still empty! The plan to seize the Golden State and enter the Guanzhong is still possible to be realized. β
Song Ming's heart jumped, his top boss's mind was really incomprehensible, he originally thought that Lu Jiang's seizure of Loess Town was to close the door and beat the dog, but now it seems that he is killing two birds with one stone. The capture of Loess Town, closing the door to the retreat of the Zhou soldiers in Junzhou, and also opening the way to march to Jinzhou.
"That... Does the general think that Zhou Bing was confused by us? β
"This... It's hard to say. Li Shumi, who was originally in Dengzhou, suddenly ran to Xiangzhou, and used the sword of the Son of Heaven to transfer the remaining garrison troops in Shannan Dongdao to form two divisions. From this point of view, the possibility that Zhou Bing has a follow-up army is also very large. We can't take it lightly! β
Looking at Song Ming's worried look, Lu Jiang smiled: "General Song, don't worry too much. At present, for our army, the worst situation is that we arrive at Loess Town, but now Loess Town is hoarding a large number of Zhou soldiers, we can't conquer Loess Town, if we retreat, the Zhou soldiers who attacked Junzhou blocked our retreat. However, didn't Lao Tzu say: Blessings and misfortunes lurk, and misfortunes and blessings rely on. Only in one case will Zhou Bing block our retreat. That is, he knows that it is hopeless to attack Junzhou, that is, our reinforcements have arrived. He had to retreat, Li Shumi was familiar with military affairs, and the Zhou soldiers retreated, he would inevitably catch up, at that time, Loess Town was the Zhou army, followed by our 2o7 division, and then the retreating Zhou army, and finally our army. At that time, the Zhou army in Loess Town will inevitably go out of the city in order to respond, and we will have a chance to capture the city. β
"Knock knock..." The drums of war outside Junju City sounded. Gao Huaide commanded the army to attack the city of Junzhou. He came to Junju to carry out a surprise attack. Of course, I won't play any tricks. This trick can only be considered under the long siege. It has always been accompanied by a strategy to delay the army, and he engaged in surprise attacks, if he surrendered, he would lose the opportunity. Besides. In the loess town of only 500 people, the Chu army fought to the death for a while, and the dignified Junzhou City had no reason not to occupy it.
To deal with Junzhou, which has only 1ooo people to defend the city, Gao Huaide's method is very simple: attack the east and the west, and not be afraid of sacrifice. He secretly divided the army into two parts, a part of 6,000 people led by himself, at the west gate of the city, forcibly attacked the city, attracted the attention of the Chu army, and after attracting the main force of the Chu army to the west of the city, he sent people to suddenly attack the east gate of the city, and the Chu army was taken by surprise.
"Woohhh The horn of the march sounded.
Gao Huaide sat on his horse, and in front of him kept walking past the well-trained white-clothed army, these sergeants, the shield man, the bow bearer, the sword and shield hand in front, the crossbowman in the back, a team of columns, marching neatly, under the cover of ballistas, crossbow beds, and stone throwers, they attacked Junzhou City.
"Shoot!" The herald shouted loudly, and the sergeants responded in unison in order to cheer them up: "Shoot! "At the moment of life and death, no one thought about whether there was anything wrong with this word, whether there was any ambiguity.
"Bang... Huge stones fell on the head of Junzhou City, smashing a large hole in the sidewalk at the head of the city, and the entire city wall seemed to be crumbling under this blow.
"Whoosh... Crossbow arrows rained out from the camp of the Zhou soldiers, and rushed towards the head of Junzhou City. At the dawn of autumn, the sky is getting brighter, and this crossbow arrow looks extremely powerful, but in fact the effect of cover is far greater than its lethality. The Chu army hid behind the battlements one by one, and didn't even dare to show their heads. And Zhou Bing took advantage of this opportunity and rushed towards the city wall.
"The catapultγγγ the trebuchet shot! Bow and arrow, bow and arrow shooting. Liu Zhenyuan stood at the head of the city and roared loudly.
Looking at the posture of this crossbow arrow, and listening to the shouts of killing outside the city wall that shook the heavens and the earth, he knew that the enemy had charged. In order to suppress the enemy's crossbow bed and slow down the freezing of the enemy's charge, Liu Zhenyuan commanded the only four stone throwers in the city to attack the enemy separately. And the sergeants hiding in the arrow tower and the pass, also held bows and arrows one after another, and shot wildly at the white-clothed army under the city.
The stones were thrown high, and then under the action of gravity, they fell hard outside the city. For a dense charge, the stones are not very lethal, killing only one or two people at a time. However, there is a lot of pressure on the attacking sergeant, why? A stone bigger than the lid of a pot fell from the sky, and when it fell on the ground, it was a big pit, and it fell on the head of a person, and the man was squeezed together with the earth, and smashed a big hole.
So, when the sergeant was charging, he no longer dared to run madly with his head down, but when he raised his head, looked at the sky, and always paid attention to the direction in which the stones were flying, the formation was so chaotic. But although the chaos was chaotic, after all, there were still many white-clothed soldiers who ran to the foot of Junzhou City, and the high cloud ladder was erected. Under the rising sun, a fight began.
