Chapter 285: Besieged on All Sides
Quangai Suwen didn't have a good way, and in the end he could only arrange for as many soldiers as possible to watch under the city walls, put a tank every ten meters, pay close attention to the situation, and notify himself immediately if there was a place where the tunnel was dug through.
Zhang Liao and Xu Rong waited for half the night, but they did not see the Goguryeo soldiers rushing out, and the excavation work had been completed.
"General, the Han people have retreated!"
At this time, the Keeper noticed that the ship below began to move, and then disappeared into the night.
Quangai Suwen was called up again, looking at the retreating ship below, he breathed a sigh of relief, he didn't know what the people of the Yutang Empire were doing, but he directly told himself that it was not a good thing, but there was no good evidence, so he could only watch.
But now that the people of the Yutang Empire have retreated, it is always a good thing, don't worry about suddenly a hole being dug in the city wall in the middle of the night, and then the people of the Yutang Empire will rush into the city from inside.
"Well, continue to patrol and notify me as soon as there is a situation!"
Quan Gai Suwen yawned for a long time, tonight was really a disaster for him, he had slept well in his general's mansion at the beginning, and then he heard that there was an enemy situation at the east city gate, he got up halfway through his sleep, and immediately rushed over, and after tossing for half the night, he could finally rest again, and before he fell asleep, this kind of thing happened again, and he got up again.
Now it is getting darker and darker, but those who are familiar with the night know that it is the darkness before dawn, and soon the sun will rise in the east, and a new day will come.
Quangai Suwen went back to sleep again, as the supreme general of Xincheng, he knew that he needed to rest well, so that he had the energy to deal with the next things, if something happened to him and fell, Xincheng would be finished, while the Yutang Empire had not officially started attacking, he had as much rest as possible.
At seven o'clock in the morning, Yu Zhiqian, who had a good night's rest, got up from the bed, got dressed under the service of a group of chamberlains, finished breakfast, and came to the big tent.
Cheng Yanjin was not here, this guy was in charge of guarding the camp last night, although he knew that Goguryeo would not dare to attack at night, but he also had to be just in case, this veteran only went to rest after dawn.
Xu Rong and Zhang Liao stood in the lower position with excited faces, and Yu Zhiqian knew when he saw the expressions of the two of them that it must have been last night.
"How?"
"Emperor Hui, the excavation has been completed, and you only need to bury gunpowder to blow up the city wall!"
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, a smile appeared on his face: "The two generals have worked hard, if the new city is broken today, you two will be the first to make the first contribution!" ”
"Emperor Xie!"
The next thing is very simple, although Li Jing still doesn't believe in such a thing as using gunpowder to blow up the city wall, but now he can really try, it really can't attack again, anyway, it's not bad for this kung fu.
At nine o'clock in the morning, after breakfast, the army of the Yu Tang Empire, which had finished resting, began to move forward slowly, Li Jing led an army to the west gate of the new city, and the rest of the generals each led an army to the north gate and the south gate of the new city respectively, Yu Zhiqian personally came to the east gate, and there were 50,000 troops around him, in addition to Xue Rengui and others were also beside Yu Zhiqian.
Yu Zhiqian, who is afraid of death, is serious, he still has to live well, maybe he can play Weibo and WeChat before he dies, and leave some useful news for the world when the time comes.
East Gate of the New Town
Seeing the situation at the East Gate, Yu Zhiqian finally understood why Xu Rong and Zhang Liao were able to dig holes in the ground so easily, compared to the various ravines in front of the other three gates, antlers and other simple defensive equipment, there was nothing outside the East City Gate.
At the same time, the east city gate is facing the hinterland of Goguryeo, if the reinforcements arrive, the antler ravines or something will hinder the reinforcements from entering the city, so the east city gate only has a row of antlers under the city gate to prevent the ship from rushing directly to the door, and the rest of the place is very empty.
More than ten minutes ago, Quan Gai Suwen was woken up again, looking at the herald sleepily, his head was too tired and drowsy, and he finally woke up, twisted his neck and jumped up: "How is the situation?" ”
"Report to the general, the enemy army has been found outside the West Gate!"
"Oh, do you see who the flag is?"
"It's Li Jing of the Yutang Empire!"
Hearing the name Li Jing, Quangai Suwen immediately became serious, as a high-ranking general of Goguryeo, he knew very well the information of his imaginary enemy generals of the Yutang Empire, Li Jing was the most dangerous of all the generals in the Yutang Empire, cunning as a fox, good at attacking and defending, full of scheming, and it can be said that he was the most threatening to Goguryeo among all the generals of the Yutang Empire.
"How many?"
"About 30,000 people!"
"Armor, go to Simon!"
Li Jing was at the East Gate, and Quan Gai Suwen felt that the main direction of attack of the Yutang Empire should be the West Gate, and he needed to personally supervise the battle.
"Report!"
At this time, another herald rushed in: "Report to the general, there are a large number of enemy troops at the north gate!" ”
"Huh? Did you see the flag clearly? ”
"It's Niu Jinda of the Yutang Empire!"
Hearing Niu Jinda's name, Quan Gai Suwen's head is a little big, and he is a fierce man, when the grassland pursuit war, Goguryeo also sent troops to help, Quan Gai Suwen clearly remembers that he and Niu Jinda were each other's pioneers, this guy led a hundred horsemen to chase and kill 3,000 grassland Hu people, beheaded more than 2,000 people, and deterred the grassland, and this guy still did not back down with more than ten arrows in his body.
If this fierce man is allowed to rush up the city wall, the north gate will not need to be guarded, and it will be directly announced.
"Go to the North Gate or go to the West Gate!" This is the problem that Quangai Suwen is entangled, one is a fierce general, the other is a wise general, both of them are not easy to deal with, and if anyone is left alone, the new city may be lost.
"Inform Yang Shouchen to let him go to the north gate and tell him to guard it!"
"Yes!"
In the end, Quangai Suwen felt that Li Jing's threat was greater, and decided to go to Ximen by himself, but before he could leave, another herald rushed in.
"Report, General, there are a large number of enemy troops at the South Gate!"
"Do you see the flag clearly?"
"It's Yu Tang Empire General Wei Chi Gong!"
Quangai Suwen patted his head hard, and there was another fierce man, this goods is only stronger than Niu Jinda, only strong but not weak, and during the same grassland war, this Wei Chi Gong led more than 1,000 people alone, raided the grassland king's tent, captured the Khan alive, and was covered in blood, like the reincarnation of the demon god!
Before Quan Gai Suwen could think about where to go, the East Gate guard hurriedly ran in: "General, there are a large number of enemy troops outside the city!" ”
"Who is the leader?"
The guard shook his head: "I didn't see it clearly, the flag covered the sky, but I saw the five-clawed golden dragon flag!" ”
“……”
Come on, Quangai Suwen felt that he didn't need to go anywhere, he still obediently guarded the east gate, the five-clawed dragon banner was here, and it was obvious that the east gate was the main direction of the Yutang Empire's attack, but when he thought of the other three city gate leading generals, Quangai Suwen couldn't help but feel big.
The Central Plains Dynasty is really a treasure of things, outstanding people, these generals can take out a person, they can be compared with themselves, there are thousands of famous generals in the Yutang Empire, but what about Goguryeo?
Quan Gai Suwen couldn't help but shake his head when he thought of this, it's not that he looks down on the generals in the country, but he hasn't seen it at all, those guys are all wine bags and rice bags, none of them can fight, and he can kill dozens of them by himself.
"Let's go, let's see!"
Since the Emperor Taishang is in this place, Quangai Suwen wants to see what the emperor of the Yutang Empire is like, and at the same time, he is also thinking in his heart, if he can repel the enemy army at the east gate, take advantage of the chaos to cover up, and capture the Taishang Emperor of the Yutang Empire, maybe this time the difficulty of Goguryeo can be solved.
Thinking of this, Quan Gai Suwen couldn't help but look at him, but when he walked to the front of the city wall and saw the banners below and the appearance of some generals, he no longer had this plan in his heart, there were more than ten generals he could recognize, each of them was a fierce man, he might be able to deal with one alone, and the two would be defeated, and it was almost impossible to capture the Emperor Taishang of the Yutang Empire in the hands of this group of people.
Quan Gai Suwen will not fantasize about the other party being defeated by himself, and then start a large-scale rout, and then take advantage of the chaos to arrest people, he knows very well that this group of generals is here, even if he rushes out with 10,000 people, it will be difficult to catch people, and there are so many defenders in the city, there are no troops to counterattack.
Outside the east city gate, Yu Zhiqian sat in the Chinese army, holding a telescope in his hand, looked at the city gate in the distance, and found a general wearing gold armor, also holding a telescope in his hand to look over, this guy looks very sassy, and looks a little handsome.
"Who's that guy?" Yu Zhiqian handed the telescope to Chen Qingzhi beside him.
Chen Qingzhi looked over with a telescope and found that the man wearing gold armor on the city tower was also stunned, but he soon knew who this guy was: "Emperor Taishang, this guy should be Quangai Suwen!" ”
"Yo, you look good, no wonder you were able to elope with the princess of Goguryeo, and you were able to hook up with a mountain goat!"
Hearing Yu Zhiqian's words, Shen Wansan, Chen Qingzhi, Xue Rengui and others beside him all smelled a strong atmosphere of gossip.
After Yu Zhiqian heard this, he coughed lightly: "Ahem, cough, ahem, you remember what that guy looks like, and I will arrest him later, I hate that someone is handsome!" ”
said that the story that Quangai Suwen and the princess had to tell was the love and hate with the high mountain goat, it was a book called Tang Brick, and the world he was in was a little chaotic, and there was definitely no such thing, definitely not.
Yu Zhiqian is looking at Quangai Suwen, Quangai Suwen is also looking at Yu Zhiqian, Yu Zhiqian is not as sassy as him, wearing gold armor or something, but there are generals all around, Yu Zhiqian is not in the middle, and the cavalry next to him looks different from ordinary cavalry, plus the five-clawed golden dragon banner beside him, Quangai Suwen can be sure that that is his goal.
"So young!"
Seeing a handsome face, Quan Gai Suwen couldn't help but be stunned, but he quickly drove out the miscellaneous thoughts in his head, began to arrange defenses, and waited for the Yutang Empire to enter the palace.
Xincheng is a city built by Goguryeo with a huge amount of money, in order to block the soldiers of the Yutang Empire, the city wall is higher and thicker than the ordinary city wall, in addition, there are several granaries in the city, which are full of grain all year round, if someone besieges the city, the grain can hold on for more than two years, of course, the people's rations are not counted among them.
In addition, the location of the new city is also close to the river, the underground water source is abundant, and there are many wells in the city, so there is no need to worry about being cut off from the water.
It's just that the Goguryeo people didn't expect that this time the Yutang Empire mobilized hundreds of thousands of troops, which made Xincheng, which only had 50,000 defenders, a little difficult to parry, but even Quan Gaisuwen was confident that he could block the first wave of the Yutang Empire's offensive!
Quan Gai Suwen often reads the military books of the Yu Tang Empire, and he is very familiar with the thirty-six strategies, he knows that the army fights, again and again, and then declines, and three times exhausted, as long as he can hold three times, he will fall into a protracted war, and when the reinforcements arrive, he can even fight back and gnaw a piece of meat from the Yu Tang Empire.
"Emperor Taishang, our army has been prepared and can attack!"
After Yu Zhiqian heard it, he nodded, and looked at Zhang Liao and Xu Rong, although they stayed up all night, these two people were still very excited, and after seeing Yu Zhiqian look over, they immediately puffed up their chests.
"Zhang Liao, Xu Rong, look at the two of you!"
"Whoa!"
The two people quickly drove out of the army, and then the ships separated from the military formation, Zhang Liao raised his big knife and roared: "Rush!" ”
I saw that these ships began to approach the city wall of the new city, and Quangai Suwen, who was on the city tower, had been staring at the movements of the army of the Yutang Empire, and after seeing the ships come out, he knew that the enemy was about to start attacking, and roared: "Rolling wood, rolling stones, gold juice ready!" ”
Dealing with the old three things, the rolling wood and rolling stones are easy to understand, that is, a piece of wood and a big stone, and the gold juice, which may be a little disgusting, is cooked feces......
The siege trilogy, the ship goes first, clearing the obstacles in front of the city gate, and then a group of sword and shield soldiers will escort the ladder and other things forward, and finally the army charges, Quangai Suwen squinted his eyes and looked at the ship that was getting closer and closer, and secretly swore in his heart that he would make the Yutang Empire suffer a little today, and let them know that Goguryeo was not easy to provoke!
However, soon Quangai Suwen realized that something was wrong, the ship had already rushed out more than two hundred meters, and there were no soldiers following behind, just like last night, charging alone.
After watching the warship approach the city wall, a group of soldiers stared at Quangai Suwen, wanting to wait for him to say a word, but Quangai Suwen didn't have any instructions, because last night, Quangai Suwen knew that this new type of warship of the Yutang Empire didn't seem to be afraid of rolling stones, rolling wood and gold juice!
