Chapter 94: Steppe Killing
A round of shooting completely shocked the soldiers defending the city on the city wall and made them fearful. Such a terrifying siege machine made the soldiers defending the city no longer have any illusions.
Come to think of it, the catapult had not yet been born at this time, and it was indeed terrifying to fall down those stones of different sizes. In fact, the reason why a few people can't be killed is mainly because of a sense of psychological fear. Once a person has a sense of fear, don't think about any more fighting spirit and resistance.
As soon as the incense was poured into the time, the gate of Jinyang City creaked, and the heavy gate slowly opened. The soldiers defending the city lined up en masse and lined up in the second test, waiting for the Qin army to take over.
Ye Tong was a little dumbfounded!
This is a surrender? It's a bit unreal, just to deter, the other party put down their weapons and surrendered, which is too incomprehensible.
Later, when he entered the city to inquire, he realized that when the general defending the city heard that death had arrived, he didn't even think about it, so he fled from the other city gates with his belongings and family, ignoring the defense of the city at all, and it seemed that it was none of his business.
Ye Tong's army entered the city, took over the city defense, and handled government affairs with the civilian personnel of the army.
In the next few days, Ye Tong sent a large army to clear the area around Jinyang City, completely eliminate some bandits, remnants of the judgment army, etc., to ensure the safety of the Jinyang area.
At the same time, Ye Tong ordered Chen Fei to strengthen the construction of Huguan, increase defensive measures, and improve defensive capabilities. For a period of time, Ye Tong was unable to conquer again, and needed a stable and developing rear.
Recovering Guanzhong is already the limit of Ye Tong's strength, and if he expands the results of the battle, it is likely that he will suffer from indigestion. Ye Tong doesn't want to have repeated problems in the area under his jurisdiction, and he must ensure the stability and development of the region when he controls a region.
For the princes, Ye Tong really didn't pay attention to it, Ye Tong has always paid attention to the Xiongnu iron cavalry on the northern grassland, Mao Dun should have unified the northern grassland, forming a powerful Xiongnu group, that is the object of Ye Tong's attention.
-----------------
After more than half a year of hard work, Lin Xiao has added more than 50 warships, and the scale of warships has reached more than 60, and the recruited naval recruits have been trained into the army. Lin Xiao's confidence was greatly increased, and he felt that he had the ability to destroy Gongao's warship in one fell swoop.
After Han Xin and Lin Xiao discussed, they felt that they could attack Nanjun, and Lin Xiao's navy would first strike at the Gongao warships on the Yangtze River, and then attack Nanjun after annihilating the Gongao warships.
If you want to take Nanjun, you must destroy the hundreds of warships under Gongao, otherwise you can't attack. After a period of rest, Han Xin's soldiers and horses increased by 10,000, the training has ended, and the team has 20,000 troops stationed outside Changsha and Qianzhong County, and Han Xin's soldiers and horses have 20,000.
In order to increase Han Xin's strength, Ye Tong was ready to produce another 10,000 turquoise horses. The problem is that Han Shin doesn't have enough experience right now to command more troops. Only after being promoted to the commander of the corps can Han Shin's abilities be fully utilized. Ye Tong can't help with this, and the system is selfless.
Lin Xiao led fifty warships down the Yangtze River, targeting the hundreds of warships in the Yangtze River. Lin Xiao was in high spirits, thinking about the measures to be taken when there were various changes in the battle situation.
The first time he led a warship to battle, more than a dozen advanced warships fought against hundreds of Gongao warships, and the end was a second defeat and fear of injury, and Lin Xiao was almost wiped out. After returning to the Bajun base, the craftsmen said that more than half of the warships were not worth repairing, and the repair price was more expensive than new.
Lin Xiao reported the battle situation to Ye Tong on the grassland, Ye Tong was speechless after reading it, and only replied with four words, summarizing and learning.
Ye Tong can't do it! Lin Xiao is the first soldier Ye Tong to produce on this planet, what can he say? When Lin Xiao proposed to serve in the navy, Ye Tong looked at Lin Xiao with playful eyes and asked, "Are you sure!" ”
"Yes!"
Ye Tong didn't stop it at all, and agreed directly. In that battle, Lin Xiao was completely chaotic, did not give full play to the superior performance of the warship, did not talk about the formation, did not talk about the tactics, just collided, and used the characteristics of the warship itself to fight savagely.
Lin Xiao is commanding the navy there, and it is completely good to drive a land heavy tank. At the beginning of the battle, Lin Xiao commanded more than a dozen warships under his command to crash over, just like a bumper boat.
After receiving Ye Tong's reply, Lin Xiao was extremely ashamed, and immediately ran to Dingjun Mountain to instill knowledge of naval warfare and water warfare. It turned out that Lin Xiao was an army soldier, and all he instilled was the knowledge of land warfare, but not naval and water warfare. It was this indoctrination that led to Lin Xiao's transformation.
When Gong Ao learned that the Qin army's warships were killed, he was not verbose, and directly ordered all his warships to meet the enemy. The strength of the Gongao Water Army is actually quite powerful, only slightly weaker than Xiang Yu's. One loss was better, and after returning, Gongao immediately ordered the production of a large number of warships.
Gongao can't do it without increasing the number of warships! The Qin army has warships, and they are still increasing, and if they do not increase the number of warships, the result they are waiting for is the defeat of the water war. As soon as the water battle was lost, Nanjun was lost.
In this battle, Lin Xiao will not make a fool again, and uses the command flag to command all warships to form a battle formation, kill the Gongao warship, and when he enters the range of the catapult, he immediately orders to open fire, and ensures the distance between the warship and the enemy ship, giving full play to the advantages of the warship.
Lin Xiao's warships are all driven by wind power and manpower, and in terms of speed and flexibility, they are not comparable to those warships under Gongao. As long as the command is done properly, even ten warships can fight against a total of hundreds of warships.
Now that Lin Xiao understands, concentrate his firepower on attacking one of the opponent's warships and gradually destroy them, so that he can ensure the safety of his own warship. After all, the warships under the Gongao banner are wind-powered, and they can't catch up with Lin Xiao's warships, which are not at the same level in terms of speed.
The T-word prefix will also be robbed, if Ye Tong sees it, he will definitely be happy in his heart. It shows that Lin Xiao is really studying with his heart and summing up lessons and lessons with his heart.
Tactically sound and properly commanded, the superior performance of the warship immediately came into play. Use the ship's advanced and powerful firepower - catapults and ballistas to attack from a distance without the need for hand-to-hand combat.
You must know that the warships under the Gongao banner are not only small, but also have no heavy firepower, only bows and arrows in the hands of the soldiers on the warships. In terms of range, it can't pose a threat to Lin Xiao's warship, and it can't be shot! If you want to stick it, you can't catch up, and you can only be gradually eliminated and destroyed by the other party.
The two sides fought fiercely for several hours, losing more than 60 warships under the Ao banner, and more than 50 warships under Lin Xiao were not damaged. The problem is that the ammo (stones, bolts) is running out.
Lin Xiao did not relent, and immediately ordered a retreat, and returned to the base to replenish supplies and fight again. What's more, the soldiers who operated the ballistae and catapults were exhausted, and although the sailors on the warship helped them, the physical exertion was very great, and they could no longer reluctantly continue to fight.
The warships under the banner of Gongao suffered heavy losses, but fortunately, they repelled the attack of the Qin army, which made Gongao's heart feel a little calm. However, Gong Ao made a small calculation in his heart, once the battle situation was unfavorable, he was ready to flash people, and he could not be captured by the other party, once he was captured, his life would not be guaranteed, after all, it was a rebellion and a serious crime to destroy the three clans.
The next day, Lin Xiao led fifty warships to continue to kill Gongao, and the tactics continued to use yesterday, not to give the other party a chance to fight closely, and made full use of the advantages of the warship's long-range firepower to continuously eliminate and destroy the warships under Gongao's banner.
At the end of the day, nearly seventy warships under the Gongao banner were destroyed again, and there were less than 100 left, which was no longer a threat to Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao ordered a retreat, went back to resupply supplies, and the third day was a decisive battle, this time Lin Xiao began to attack from a distance. After destroying and destroying dozens of warships, Lin Xiao ordered all the warships to press up, making full use of the advantages of medium-range and short-range firepower.
In the end, the battle ended, without any suspense, and all the warships under the Gongao banner were either destroyed or captured. Among them, tens of thousands of captured soldiers made Lin Xiao happy!
The quality of the soldiers under Gongao is good, the water quality is good, and the level of bows and arrows is also high, which is the best supplementary source for the navy. Of course, to absorb the prisoners, Ye Tong had to agree, after all, Ye Tong stipulated that the prisoners would serve three years of hard labor before they were released.
After the water battle, it was time for Han Xin to perform, Lin Xiao used a warship to cross Han Xin's army across the Yangtze River, and the 20,000 army crossed in one day. There is no harassment by the Gongao warships, and the efficiency is very high.
First of all, a regiment of troops was crossed, and Han Xin ordered to immediately build a defensive position to prevent a sneak attack by the Communists.
When Gongao heard that the Qin army had crossed the river and was preparing to attack Nanjun, his first thought was to escape. Later, when he heard that the soldiers who had crossed over were only 5,000 hours, he immediately ordered a large army to be sent to destroy them.
The result was a big surprise to Gongao, 30,000 soldiers and horses against 5,000 Qin troops, and the result was a great defeat for Gongao. This made Gongao truly appreciate the strength of the Qin army. The Qin army was not only powerful in soldiers, but also extremely powerful in weaponry.
Han Xin ignored Gong Ao's thoughts and continued to cross the Yangtze River.
In the evening, Han Xin's 20,000-strong army successfully crossed the Yangtze River and could attack Nanjun at any time. Han Xin thought about it again and again, and felt that Nanjun City was already in the bag, and there was no need to attack overnight, so let his soldiers rest for one night and attack again tomorrow.
It was Han Xin's decision that gave Gongao in Nanjun City time to escape.
Gong Ao is depressed! The water battle failed, the warships were lost, the land battle failed, and there were still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under his command, the problem was that the soldiers were low and the fighting spirit was fully used, not to mention resisting the powerful Qin army, it would be good if he could meet and not surrender.
After thinking about it, Gong Ao immediately packed up his things, took his money, family, and relatives and soldiers and fled out of Nanjun at night. Gong Ao is more familiar with the area of Nanjun and knows where to escape. Therefore, when escaping, there is no hindrance or danger.
Gongao had no choice but to flee to Pengyue to find Xiang Yu, anyway, Xiang Yu is an ally, if you don't look for Xiang Yu, who else can you find. Only Xiang is safe in the world, and the other princes are not safe.
The next day, Han Xin led his troops and horses to kill the southern county city, and saw the city gate wide open from afar, without any soldiers to defend it. I feel very strange in my heart, what kind of fame is this Gongao, do you want to play an empty city plan?
Han Xin sent a small detachment to inspect the city gate, and after a while, his subordinates reported that there were no defenders in Nanjun City, only ordinary people. Gu Wen Gongao fled, and the soldiers dispersed en masse, fearing that they would serve their labor after being captured.
