Chapter 73: Guzang Offensive and Defensive Battle (1)
A few days later, outside the city of Guzang, the army of Xianbei Hu, which had besieged the city for a month, finally began to attack the city.
Murong Ke sat in the middle army and watched the 10,000 Heavenly Star Empire's descending army launch a fierce attack on Guzang City.
"General, you attacked Guzang this time, why did you ask Da Shan Yu for this surrender of the Ten Thousand Heavenly Star Empire, their combat strength is not half a star worse than my Da Xianbei warriors!" The deputy general beside Murong Ke plucked up his courage and said the doubts that had always existed in his heart.
Murong Ke looked at Yu Wenzhi, the deputy general of the Yuwen tribe who had just been transferred to the army, with an expressionless face, and said coldly: "Although the army of the Heavenly Star Empire is not as good as our army in field battles, I have to admit that attacking and defending the city is really their strong point. You can't despise them just because they're huddled up in Yizhou, or you'll have to pay a heavy price. In the first few sieges, the leading generals suffered because they did not pay enough attention to this rebel army. "Murong Ke didn't have any good feelings about this deputy general of the Yuwen clan, and naturally he didn't want to tell him the truth.
"The general is talented, and the last general has been taught!" Yuwen said this straightly, but in his heart, he laughed at Murong Kelai: what he said was good, it wasn't that the battle of Yangping Guan was scared by Bai Wuye.
What an undefeated god of war, not yet a coward!
"There is one more thing, the last general doesn't understand, why did the general besiege this Guzang for a month before starting to attack the city?"
"You're on the battlefield for the first time! Don't you think it's redundant for you to ask this question! The two questions you ask are actually the same question. Listening to Yuwen ask this idiotic question, Murong Ke naturally thought of this reason, and only a young girl who went to the battlefield for the first time would ask such a question that was not at the same level.
"The last general is indeed on the battlefield for the first time, forgive the last general for being stupid and not understanding the general's intentions, and please ask the general to give advice!" Yuwen looked confused, what two questions are the same question, he obviously asked two questions!
"I have already said that the failure of the first few sieges was due to the lack of preparation of the leading generals and their contempt for the rebel army occupying Guzang, so it led to several sieges that were not captured. This time, I led an army of 20,000 to besiege them for more than a month, just to first demoralize them, consume their grain and grass, and then attack the city with 10,000 celestial stars, hoping to lure them out of the city, so that my 10,000 cavalry will be useful. In addition to this, I sent my scouts everywhere to investigate the defeated army, and tried to find out the details of this rebel army. Before Murong Ke finished speaking, Yu Wenzhi interjected: "You still need to check their details, isn't it just a righteous army, as long as our army is cautious, how can there be any reason why it can't be taken?" "Where did this waste come from, how can the Yuwen clan be all rudeless bastards!
Yuwen Po sent him here to spy on me or to be angry with me. At this moment, Murong Ke was so angry that Yuwen couldn't cry or laugh.
"According to the defeated army defending the city before, the rebels set up an ambush in advance and defeated them. But this rebel army was able to defeat our Xianbei elite cavalry in the field, and defeated my siege army several times. Vice General Yuwen thinks about it, is there no other reason besides the paralysis of our army? ”
"Other reasons?" Yuwen muttered quietly,
"What other reasons can there be, didn't you yourself say that our army was not well prepared!" Got it, got it, everything got it!
Listening to Yu Wenzhi's words, Murong Ke had a feeling of sudden realization in his heart, it turned out that this Yu Wenzhi was not here to spy on him, nor was he sent by Yuwen Po to make him angry, but to kill him!
No wonder Yu Wenpo was so kind when he was invited out of the mountain, he wanted soldiers for soldiers and food for food, it turned out that he had already thought about arranging such a person to come over.
A general is incompetent, tired of thousands of troops, and arranging such a deputy general to be by his side, it is difficult for him to be undefeated.
If that's the case, then it's no wonder he's ruthless!
"Also, I thought about it carefully, Vice General Yuwen, or you are right, it's just that our army is not well prepared. That's it, let's watch the battle! Murong Ke pretended to sigh, and there was still some annoyance in his tone.
"No!" Yuwen smirked. Look, the dignified undefeated god of war also confessed his mistake to himself.
It seems that Da Danyu sent me to the right place. Now go back, those people in the clan who scold themselves for their waste won't come to scold themselves!
While the two were talking, the 10,000 Heavenly Star Descending Army was divided into four teams and began to launch a fierce attack on the four gates of Guzang. Siege ladders, rushing cars and other siege equipment were used.
The defenders of the rebel army in the city did not expect that Murong Ke would use the Tianxing army to attack the city, and at the beginning, due to carelessness, he was once attacked by the surrendered army, which is a pity that the combat power of the surrendered army is very weak, and it was driven down by the rebel army before it occupied much time at the head of the city.
All of this was fully seen by Murong Ke, and when he was attacked by the Heavenly Star Army, he had some eyebrows in his heart about the deployment and weaknesses of the troops on the city tower.
This Heavenly Star Descending Army was originally his outcast, and exaggerating their role was originally intended to perfunctory Yu Wenzhi.
Now, unexpectedly, it has become the tomb where Yu Wenzhi is buried. Seeing that the defenders of the East Gate suffered the greatest casualties, and the troops occupied the most time above the city, Yu Wenzhi couldn't bear it anymore: "General, the enemy army on the other side of the East Gate can't hold it anymore, as long as you attack it again, you will definitely be able to take the East Gate." The last general asks for his life and leads people to attack the east gate again! ”
"Okay, Vice Admiral Yuwen has the courage to be the leader of the Yuwen family. So, I'll give you two hundred men, and if you can't take the east gate, come to see you." Although Murong Ke's tone was very stern, he was very happy in his heart, this useless straw bag was going to die by himself, so it's no wonder that I am.
"No, the last will obey! If you don't take the east gate, the last general will definitely come to see you. Seeing that Murong Ke was so confident in himself, Yu Wenzhi also rushed to his heart with a sense of pride, and he really thought that he was a famous general who won all battles.
He led 200 men to the east gate, urging the retreating imperial army to continue the attack on the city.
He also followed behind the army, climbed the ladder, and began to attack the city. On the top of the East Gate Tower, a general of the Righteous Army watched Xianbei Hu reinforce two hundred people to the East Gate, sighed and said to the people around him: "Hey, Murong Ke is still Murong Ke, this kind of carving insect skill will definitely not be able to hide from him!" On the contrary, he also wanted to use the two hundred reinforcements as bait to lure our army out of the city. What a great enemy this man is! ”
"Big brother don't be upset, since Murong Ke sent two hundred people to death, then let's fulfill him! There are only five days left for the grain and grass in the city now, and the army under the command of Murong Ke can kill as much as he can, and it will be regarded as his painstaking efforts. In the field, we don't have the confidence to win against his iron cavalry, but we don't pay attention to these traitors he sent to die. ”
"Then give the order so that the brethren will not cower any more!"
"Order! Little brother, let's go and give the order! The melodious and long sound of war drums remembered, the four gates of Guzang suddenly rolled wood and stones in unison, and the salvo of bows and crossbows greeted the besieging Tianxing army like angry waves, especially the east gate, which was tired earlier, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
All of a sudden, the casualties of the besieging forces increased dramatically. Yu Wenzhi, who was on the ladder, was also hit by a rolling log, and he couldn't die anymore after falling off the ladder.
"Mingjin retreats!" Murong Ke calmly gave the order and let the army withdraw. The rebels in the city were hiding their strength, as he had expected.
This siege was just a temptation for him. Besides, Yuwenzhi is dead, the obstacles have been removed, the purpose of this siege has been achieved, and there is no point in increasing casualties.
Although many of what he said to Yuwen Zhi were deceiving him, there was one thing, he didn't lie, this rebel army occupying Guzang was not simple.
The leading generals of this rebel army are also very unusual. The news he received from the defeated army, combined with the situation found in today's siege, he made a judgment that he did not believe in this rebel army: the combat strength of this rebel army was no worse than the victorious army under Bai Wuye's command.
