Seeing that Li Jing still wanted to argue, Niu Hong stretched out his hand and patted him: "Things are often not as simple as people seem on the surface, not to mention that now we can't have the slightest difference, and we have no way of judging whether Yu Qingze has the same strength as us and waits for reinforcements to attack, and the soldiers are not tired of cheating, and we must be very careful." ”

Li Jing looked at the military formation that began to change in front of him in astonishment, and seemed to understand something.

Indeed, Han Baohu left a hand to prepare to calculate Li Yan, how can he judge that Yu Qing did not leave a hand to prepare to calculate Han Baohu? Originally, the human heart was a difficult to fathom, especially in this rapidly changing battlefield.

Even Yu Qing actually doesn't have the strength to think so much, and Han Baohu can't gamble with the success or failure of the army.

"Liren, Qizhou City will be handed over to you." Han Baohu said in a deep voice.

"Don't worry." Niu Hong bowed slightly, and took over the command of the siege from Han Baohu's hands, "Order, the thunderbolt car will extend forward and bombard, and the second team will prepare to storm the city!" ”

And Han Baohu tilted his head slightly and looked at Li Jing, he believed that his nephew should have reacted. Although Li Jing can definitely be called a young genius, he still lacks these experiences that are related to human sophistication and mental calculation.

"Which side do you want to follow?"

"The child is willing to follow his uncle." Li Jing said hurriedly.

Han Baohu shook his head: "You go and help your Uncle Niu." ”

Li Jing was stunned for a moment, but seeing that Han Baohu was resolute, he could only agree.

And Han Baohu looked at Li Jing's back and shook his head slightly. This kid is indeed talented, but it is this intelligence that makes it too easy for him to stand out. It is more appropriate for young people to move forward steadily, because if they walk too fast, they will easily fall miserably······

In particular, although Li Jing is now familiar with many ways to march and set up formations, his basic skills in commanding and fighting are actually not solid, and this is mainly because he has never participated in the bloodiest and most brutal battles as a grassroots general.

Now Han Baohu must also let him see the cruel side of war, compared to the big battles in the wilderness where troops are dispatched and generals' strategies and formations are compared, this kind of siege warfare that completely relies on flesh and blood and perseverance can be more straightforwardly shown The coldness of war.

Not all strategic goals can be achieved through ingenuity······

Niu Hong was not surprised that Li Jing came over, it seemed that he had already expected Han Baohu to do this, but he said in a deep voice: "Do you want to go to the front to have a look?" ”

"Yes!" Li Jing's original discouragement was immediately washed away by his eagerness for war, and he was already extremely eager to throw himself into the battlefield and shout and attack with those brothers.

That's what a young person should do!

"Come with so-and-so." Niu Hong nodded, "Let's go, let's enter the city!" ”

At this time, after the bombardment of the thunderbolt car, large and small gaps had appeared in the city wall, and the city gate was even more swaying under the violent impact of the rushing car, and it was about to be opened. Soldiers on both sides were already tugging back and forth along the gaps in the city walls, and between the rubble and the ruins of the walls, the corpses were laid layer upon layer······

Niu Hong rode through the battlefield in front of the city gate, which was completely under the control of the Han army, and the ladder cart that was ignited in yesterday's battle had burned only a huge bracket at this time, and if you got closer, you could smell the strong smell of burning. The smell is not just wood, it's human. Li Jing squinted slightly, and could clearly see the corpses between the woods.

Most of the corpses had been charred to charcoal black skeletons, their mouths wide open, their hands raised upward, apparently trying their best to call out to their companions and escape at the last moment of their lives.

Smelling the smell of barbecue in the air again, Li Jing couldn't help but lower his head and retched twice. And Niu Hong strangled the war horse: "Are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Li Jing barely raised his head.

"If you feel uncomfortable, you will vomit, to be honest, when you first went to the battlefield and saw this scene, you were not as good as you." Niu Hong laughed.

An arrow whizzed past him, but Niu Hong didn't care.

There are more stray arrows on the battlefield, and no one knows when they will be shot, and this kind of completely face-looking thing can't be avoided.

"Let's go!" However, Niu Hong does not plan to stay here.

The banners of the Han army in front had already crossed the gap in the city wall, and several ladder trucks had transported more soldiers to the city wall.

"Boom!" A loud bang came, and the city gate was slammed open, and more Han soldiers entered along this large passage.

Li Jing looked at the corpses left behind after the army swept into the city, he never thought that the battlefield he saw was like this, with corpses scattered and scattered, it could really be called a mess. He subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of spit: "This, how many people will die?" ”

"As a general, you must love soldiers like sons, and you must have an iron heart." Niu Hong said lightly, "How many people die is not the primary issue that a general needs to consider, what he should consider is whether the results of dying so many people are worth it." ”

Looking up at Qizhou City, Niu Hong smiled: "It's still worth it now." ”

"Report, Yu Qing led a team of men and horses entrenched around the government and is still resisting!"

"Assault!" Niu Hong said coldly, "Don't give them a chance." ”

Although Han Baohu has an advantage in troops, no one can guarantee that Han Baohu will be able to defeat Li Yan, so he must first seize control of Qizhou City. Seeing that Qizhou was lost, Li Yan naturally had no intention of fighting.

"Let's go and see how many taels this Yu Qingze has." Niu Hong decisively rode away with his horse. And Li Jing, who was still thinking about the picture just now and Niu Hong's seemingly ruthless words, came back to his senses when he heard the sound of horses' hooves and hurriedly followed.

The war I imagined before, it was the war of ordinary soldiers. And if you want to grow into a qualified general, or even strive to become a famous general, your vision naturally can't just stay on ordinary soldiers.

You can't be afraid of sacrifice, but make it the most worthwhile, this should be the truth that Niu Hong wanted to tell himself just now.

At this time, it was three miles southeast of Qizhou City.

The Han army lined up along a small river ditch that had dried up, which was used by the people on the Guanzhong Plain for daily watering, but because of the long-term war and the displacement of the people, no one diverted water and dredged, so it naturally became like this.

Li Yan came very quickly, and he also went through a long period of psychological struggle. At the beginning, he wanted to resolutely rescue Qizhou, but because Han Baohu almost killed all the way to Qizhou, in Li Yan's opinion, Qizhou should not be able to support it for two days, so the rescue was not necessary, but it was possible to put the army under his command into it.
