"Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo-"

At midnight on 13 February, with the sound of three horns representing the attack, the 100,000 Suwang army officially began to attack Ji County. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Listening to only a few "bang bang bang" sounds, the Wei army's catapults distributed in the western and southern suburbs took the lead in launching an attack and launched a stone-throwing attack on the enemy-occupied city towers on both sides.

This time, Zhao Hongrun did not use oil barrel bombs, after all, Ji County is too close to the big river, in case it pollutes the soil here, in case the pollution spreads to the big river, the spoiled river water will flow downstream, through the country of Wei, Lu, Qi and South Korea, God knows how many civilians in the four countries live along the river, and how many civilians drink the water of this big river.

In an era when medicine is not well developed and ordinary civilians rely on their physical fitness to fight diseases, contaminated drinking water can lead to the death of tens of thousands of innocent civilians.

Not to mention that Zhao Hongrun can't bear it for the time being, Su Wangjun's reputation may also be damaged because of this.

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun chose a conventional stone bomb, and Ji County is not a so-called fortified city anyway.

Indeed, Ji County is not a fortified city, because it was originally just an ordinary residential county, and the city walls were only five or six feet high, and agile people such as black crows could easily climb into the city with a human ladder without even using any equipment.

Of course, in fact, the crows did exactly this - when Zhao Hongrun decided to attack Jixian two days ago, Yang Bai, the leader of the crows, took dozens of members of the crows to sneak into the city at night, ambushed in the city, and waited for the Su Wang's army to attack the city to snipe the generals of the Korean army in the city and create panic.

The inside should be combined with the outside, which is the only way to fight siege warfare.

"It seems that the South Korean army intends to hold on to ......"

Standing beside Zhao Hongrun on his mount, Wei Mu, the general of the Southern Yan Army, frowned and looked at Ji County in the distance, and still did not forget to remind Zhao Hongrun: "However, His Royal Highness King Su should be cautious of the cavalry opposite, according to my understanding of Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, he must have a cavalry outside the city at this moment, ready to wait for the opportunity." ”

Zhao Hongrun nodded and didn't speak, in fact, he had already made the general Ma You prepare for this: once a Korean cavalry sneaked up on his flank or rear army, the Youma army immediately dispatched, not seeking to kill many Han cavalry, but only to force the other party away, lest the other party destroy the siege formation of his Su Wang army.

As long as the opponent's cavalry does not come to disturb, Zhao Hongrun thinks that with the strength of his own soldiers, it is no problem to capture a Ji County. After all, he didn't know how many similar cities he had conquered.

The western suburbs of Ji County are the battlefields where the Shangshui Army is responsible for attacking.

I saw that under the command of Zhai Huang, the deputy general of the Shangshui Army, Ran Teng, Xiang Li, and Zhang Ming, three thousand-strong teams, took the lead in attacking Jixian.

They did not rush to the foot of Ji County, but raised the shield in their hands, and walked towards Ji County step by step with relatively neat steps.

In their rear, 3,000 men urged Lu Zhan to push his soldiers under his command to push three well carts about two zhang high to the front of the battlefield.

In addition, another 3,000 generals, Xu Jiong, commanded the crossbowmen under his command to fire crossbow arrows at the western city wall of Ji County, while gradually approaching Ji County.

The first wave of offensive attack of about 10,000 Shangshui soldiers and soldiers, the army was neat and neat, and the division of labor was clear, which made Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, who was watching the battle from the upper floor of Xicheng in Ji County, frown deeply.

"This Wei army...... The momentum is not inferior to Wei Wujun. He muttered.

I have to say that in the mind of Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, the Wei Wu army led by the Wei general Shaohu can be called the most elite Wei army he has encountered so far, even the Southern Yan army of the Wei general Wei Mu is not as brave as the Wei Wu army of Shaohu.

Although Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, had only dealt with Shaohu's Wei Wujun once, he believed that his judgment would not be wrong.

But when he met the Su Wang Army today, Han Yang suddenly felt that Wei Wushu was brave and brave, but compared to the Wei army in front of him, it was obviously still inferior.

Where does this inferiority manifest itself?

In fact, it is reflected in the grasp of the rhythm of the battlefield by the soldiers and soldiers of Shangshui.

For example, before entering the range of the Korean crossbowmen on the western city wall of Jixian, the Shangshui soldiers did not rush to charge, but put pressure on the Korean soldiers on the city wall by marching in neat steps.

This is the calmness that only a veteran soldier can show.

"It is worthy of defeating the Wei army of Chu and Qin."

Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, said secretly in his heart.

In all fairness, he didn't want to fight a decisive battle with such a strong Wei army in front of him in a county like Ji County, after all, the city walls of Ji County were too short, only one zhang five or six high, so that when facing a powerful Wei army like Su Wang's army, it could hardly play a defensive role.

This kind of city, at best, is bullying and bullying the Southern Yan Army, because the Southern Yan Army has few soldiers, even the Southern Yan Army after the expansion last year has less than 30,000 soldiers.

But today, the Wei Gongzi on the opposite side dispatched 100,000 Wei troops in one go, and in this case, even if it was the Marquis of Dangyin, Han Yang muttered a little in his heart.

After all, South Korea has never been known for defending cities, and the strength of the South Korean army is reflected in the strategic level, because South Korea has the most elite, strongest, and most numerous cavalry troops in the Central Plains.

But when it comes to attacking and defending cities, Wei has always been relatively strong, after all, the Wei infantry has long enjoyed a good reputation.

In normal times, it seems that this kind of battle is not difficult to fight: the city side attracts the attention of the Wei army, waiting for the opportunity to send cavalry to attack the flank or rear army of the Wei army's main team, which can cause the Wei army's formation to collapse, thus affecting the overall morale of the Wei army. When the time comes, the Korean soldiers in the city will most likely be able to achieve victory.

But today's situation is a bit special, because the Wei army outside the city has an army that can restrain the cavalry of the Han army-Shangshui Youma Heavy Cavalry.

Due to the existence of this Wei cavalry, Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, seemed a little jealous, and did not dare to rashly dispatch the cavalry under his command.

"That's it, let's take a look first, maybe this Wei army is just showing that it is strong."

Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, secretly comforted himself.

At this time, the vanguard of the Shangshui Army had already entered the shooting range of the crossbowmen of the Korean army on the wall of Jixian County.

Immediately, a general under Han Yang on the city wall shouted in a deep voice: "Release the arrow!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the sound of crossbow strings on the wall of Ji County sounded continuously, and thousands of crossbow arrows shot towards the vanguard of the Wei army.

And at this moment, Ran Teng, the thousand-person general of the vanguard army of the Wei army, roared: "Arrow attack!" Raise your shield! ”

Hearing this, the Wei saber and shield soldiers in that area squatted down one after another, holding the shield in their hands above the front of their bodies.

For a while, the sound of clanging was endless, but after a closer look, there were almost no Wei soldiers killed by this wave of arrows, which made the already gloomy face of Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, so as not to become more gloomy.

He felt that the soldiers of the Wei army on the other side were inevitably too calm, as if it was commonplace to bear the enemy's arrow rain, and almost no one was in a hurry in front of this arrow rain.

"They're going to attack." Storm Kite reminded him.

"What?" Han Yang, Marquis of Dangyin, was stunned when he heard this, and when he set his eyes on the outside of the city again, he was stunned to find that the vanguard of the Wei army outside the city actually rushed over after the arrow rain stopped, and began to rush towards the city wall of Jixian County.

The original rhythm of the battlefield was suddenly sped up.

Seeing this, the Korean generals on the wall of Jixian City were greatly panicked, and only heard someone shouting: "Quick! Fast! Get on the arrow, get on the arrow! ”

“……”

Han Yang, Marquis of Dangyin, was stunned to find that unconsciously, the soldiers under his command were actually disturbed by the Wei army outside the city.

Are you kidding? The Wei army outside the city has not really launched an offensive yet!

And just when Han Yang was stunned, Storm Kite reminded again: "The crossbowmen of the Wei army are pressing up, be careful of arrow attacks!" ”

"What?" Han Yang, Marquis of Dangyin, was shocked when he heard this, and subconsciously turned his head to look at the battlefield, and sure enough, he saw the crossbowmen of the Wei army, who were originally advancing slowly, and suddenly rushed to the shooting point and launched a wave of arrow rain attack towards the city wall.

For a while, arrows rained down on the west city wall of Jixian County, and I saw the Han soldiers on the city wall wailing and screaming again and again.

"Damn it!"

Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, scolded in a low voice.

Hearing this, the storm kite whispered beside her, "You shouldn't have launched an arrow attack so early...... In terms of range, the Wei crossbow is farther than my Han crossbow, but it is not much, the crossbowmen under the command of the Marquis of Dangyin have the help of the city wall, and the range is actually not inferior to the Wei crossbowmen outside the city, as long as the crossbowmen in the city do not shoot arrows, the crossbowmen of the Wei army dare not step forward easily. ”

"......" Han Yang, Marquis of Dangyin, glanced at the storm kite and did not speak, but a famous general beside him said unconvinced: "Even so, in this way, the crossbowmen of the Wei army have also entered the shooting distance of our crossbowmen, and it is the turn of our army to counterattack." ”

Storm Kite glanced at the general, with a 'you are too naïve' expression on his face, shook his head and said, "No, the crossbowmen of the Wei army, its offensive is not over yet. ”

As soon as the words fell, the crossbowmen of the Suwang Army outside the city shot another wave of arrows towards the Jixian city wall, causing the crossbowmen of the Han army on the city wall who originally planned to shoot back to hide and dodge.

Glancing at the stunned Dangyin Marquis Han Yang and the general who had just spoken, the Storm Kite sighed slightly and said in a low voice: "'Second Shooting', this is the crossbow tactics used by the Su Wang Army. …… They will quickly insert into the battlefield after the enemy crossbowmen have finished shooting arrows, and use half of the crossbowmen to shoot, and when the enemy crossbowmen are loaded with arrows and ready to fire back, the other half of the Wei crossbowmen will estimate the time and launch another salvo, often killing more enemy soldiers the second time than the first. Speaking of this, he paused, and then said: "In addition, from this moment on, the arrow attacks of the Wei crossbowmen will continue, and they will not give me a chance to fight back." ”

Not long after he said this, the crossbowmen of the Wei army outside the city launched another arrow attack on the western city wall of Jixian County, just as the violent kite said, almost did not give the crossbowmen of the Han army on the city wall a chance to shoot back and counterattack.

And just when Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, gritted his teeth and gave the order of the general, not hesitating to let the crossbowmen on the city wall fire back at the risk of the Wei army's arrow attack, the violent kite said next to him: "Lord Dangyin Marquis, I think the biggest threat at the moment is not the crossbowmen in the distance outside the city. As he spoke, he pointed down and continued: "Because when I was staring at the Wei crossbowmen outside the city, the infantry of the Wei army had already arrived under the city. ”

Hearing this, Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, stretched out his head and glanced at the battlements under the city, and sure enough, he saw that the infantry of the Wei army was erecting a long ladder under the city, preparing to enter the city.

"This Wei army ......"

Han Yang, the Marquis of Dangyin, was shocked in his heart, because he found that unconsciously, the Wei army had actually led the battle, so that Han Jun was involuntarily led by the nose.

Facts proved that his suspicion was confirmed, and even though the Su Wang army was relatively equal to the Wei Wu army in terms of training, in terms of experience on the battlefield, the Su Wang army was significantly stronger than the Wei Wu army.

This Wei army is too calm.
