Chapter 65: Siege

Ma Yun led the Chu army to Bianjing City, he immediately divided the army into five parts, Qian Qing and Shi Da led 20,000 horses respectively, to do a wheel attack on the south city gate, and attacked the south city day and night, at the same time, he also ordered Li Ergou and the newly promoted general Wang Quanbin to lead 2oooo men and horses, constantly making feints in the west of the city, attracting Zhou soldiers and dispersing the Zhou soldiers in the south of the city. Jack Ma himself led 1oooo people as a reserve. The young general Cao Bin was stationed in Songzhou and was responsible for deterring the entire Huaibei region. The siege war was intermittently fought in the south and west of the city.

In the past three days, whether it was the Chu army besieging the city or the Zhou soldiers defending the city, they all burst out with unprecedented fighting passion, blood flowed like a river above and below the city, and corpses were everywhere. In three days, the Chu army tried everything to rush the car and hit the city gate, the boat and car (the shape is similar to an upside-down boat, it has no bottom, and the sergeants can hide in it to dig tunnels) to dig tunnels, and set up ladders to meet each other in short combat.

Because the walls of Bianjing City are strong and tall, the Chu army has to pay the price of their lives for every step forward, but under the severe military law and the temptation of heavy profits, the sergeants still sacrifice their lives to attack this Bianjing City. The tunnel was finally dug up, and before the celebration began, it was injected with water by Zhou Bing, so that the project that had been working for several days was all in vain at once; The car finally broke through the city gate, and there was a traffic jam inside (the same as the width of the city gate, and all the sharp swords in the direction of the outside of the city), the traffic jam was damaged and there was a jack gate, and every step forward was so difficult, but after walking over, it was a new problem again. The sergeant who climbed the ladder climbed the tower of Bianjing several times, and was forced down again several times.

Siege warfare is a tug-of-war. The loss is tragic, and the win is also miserable. Bianjing City seems to be an oil lamp in the storm, almost extinguished, and rekindled. However, as time passed, with the tireless reincarnation of the Chu army outside the city, the hearts of the generals defending the city seemed to be pressed by a big stone, and in three days, even as the defenders, they had already paid nearly 5ooo casualties. This is not the most critical, the most critical thing is that they realized that the Chu army, as the attacker, had about the same number of casualties as them, so that the Zhou soldiers, who were already small, could still hold Bianjing?

Fortunately, the commander of Bianjing, Li Gu, re-recruited an army capable of fighting in just a few days, which reassured the generals a little, and the great emperor Guo Wei also visited the battlefield several times, which also boosted the morale of the army and allowed Bianjing to hold on.

The Zhou soldiers in Bianjing were gritting their teeth and persevering, and the Chu army outside the city was not comfortable. The casualties in the past three days broke the record of the Chu army, and the siege battle was so tragic that Ma Yun was a little unexpected. Looking at the crumbling Bianjing City, he wanted to throw the reserve team into it several times, but Zhao Pu persuaded him.

"Your Majesty, after attacking the city for three days in a row, the Zhou soldiers are naturally tired, but our army is also extremely tired. But now the situation is undecided, Bianjing is raining and shaking, Guo Rong in Guanzhong and Xiang Xun in Hebei will definitely not sit idly by. We're going to keep a hand. Besides, Your Majesty, you also know that siege warfare is different from field warfare, if the field war, invest a fresh force of 10,000 people, it is very likely to change the situation of the war, but now it is a siege war, Zhou soldiers have a certain advantage, throwing the reserve into it, I am afraid it will not have much impact on the battle situation, but may make us lose a measure to grasp the fighter. Zhao Pu saw that Ma Yun was ready to take the initiative to reserve again, and he once again opened his mouth to persuade: "In the two days of siege battles, Your Majesty must have also seen that the Zhou soldiers must have mobilized the people in the city and organized them to defend the city. In this way, it will be very difficult for us to attack the city. The minister wants to ask Your Majesty to follow the plan in advance, let's move the army to Baigou. ”

"Zhao Aiqing, even if you have never controlled the army, you should know that this elite soldier is not so easy to cultivate. Let the people defend the city, hehe, that can only be a last resort, this effect, may not be able to force the way there. We have already stormed the walls many times in the past two days, and we are waiting... When Cao Bin brings all the newly transported engineering equipment, I am sure that I will take Bianjing City within five days. Ma Yun said confidently.

"But Your Majesty, Guo Rong is not far from here in Guanzhong, and Xiang Xun is in Yecheng, and it is even closer to Bianjing. Bianjing is in danger, how could they not return to the army to rescue? However, now we are tired except for the reserves. If the enemy's reinforcements arrive, it will be very disadvantageous to us. Zhao Pu pointed out the most critical problem, if the enemy wants to rescue, they can reach it in a day or two, and when they come, but so many of us are exhausted, then it will be dangerous.

Ma Yun looked at the bloodstained and smoke-filled head of Bianjing City, and sighed slightly: "Hey, if you retreat today, I don't know when I will be able to come again." ”

Zhao Pu smiled: "Your Majesty, let's just move the army to the west of Bianjing, not to fight the Zhou soldiers, just to fight with them." We can afford it, but they can't afford it. This Bianjing City is only half a year, and it must be His Majesty's. ”

Ma Yun let out a long breath, closed his eyes and thought for a while, then sighed and said: "Order Shi Da to let him carry out the last siege, if he still can't attack, the whole army will immediately move to Baigou." ”

Zhao Pu was about to go down to give an order, squinted and saw a clerk running over on the left, he was stunned for a moment, this person was his subordinate, responsible for collecting and sorting out military intelligence and military reports, looking at his hurried appearance, there must be some major military intelligence.

Seeing Zhao Pu's hesitant look, Ma Yun followed his gaze and saw the clerk at a glance. The man ran to Ma Yun, turned over and knelt down: "Your Majesty, there is an emergency military report." ”

Ma Yun's heart tightened, but his face said calmly: "What's the matter?" But it's okay to say. ”

"Your Majesty, I just received a military report that the Shu army broke through Fengxiang the day before yesterday, and now it is marching towards Chang'an with all its might!"

"What?" Ma Yun was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed. He couldn't help laughing and said: "God really helps me, I didn't expect the Shu army to conquer Fengxiang, Fengxiang has been down, there is no danger to defend in Guanzhong, now Guo Rong is afraid that he will not have the spare strength to go out of the border to rescue the border." If the white-clothed army doesn't come, will there be people in the world who are worthy of us to be opponents? ”

Zhao Pu pondered the words and said: "Your Majesty, this Shu army actually conquered Fengxiang, this... There won't be any problems with that. ”

"Hehe, Li Aiqing, have you ever had a suitable military report?"

"Your Majesty, the military report is accurate, and it is consistent with the information sent by the Military Intelligence Department of the Privy Council."

"Haha, that can't be wrong. Now is an opportunity. Zhao Aiqing, the opportunity is not human. Send the order to go down and send the Praetorian Guard to attack the city! ”
