Chapter 926: Showing off your might
On the day of the fierce battle in Leping City, the generals of the Yan army were in a relatively relaxed mood because of the smooth progress of the battle, and in Hanzhong, which was thousands of miles away, there was no such atmosphere in the Cao army's big tent, Meng De's face was solemn and thoughtful, Xun Yu and other advisers were also like this, and the generals who actually commanded today's siege battle were also silent, attacking for a whole day, tens of thousands of people went into battle repeatedly, and the casualties exceeded 5,000, and the loss of 16 well-railed vehicles was enough to take it. But in Hanzhong, they didn't even climb up the city wall, although Zhang Wenyuan, the commander of the Yan army and the Yanyun army, had the reputation of being good at guarding, and the Cao army had also seen the power of the equipment battalion when attacking the village, but no one would have imagined that it would be such a situation before the war, and today is just the first day of the official start of the siege, and the blow to morale of the battle situation can be imagined.
In the previous temptation, Zhang Liao also deliberately let the Cao army set up a ladder to attack the city to let the soldiers feel the tragic atmosphere of the actual battle, and today, with the cooperation of the equipment battalion, he did his best to block the countless impacts of the Cao army from that death distance, and the occasional fish that slipped through the net were also poured down by the city. Xiaolong and Lin Yao, the commander of the Yanyun Army's equipment battalion, really had an addiction to actual combat target shooting, and with the strong play of the archers of the defending army, the distance of the first two hundred steps of Hanzhong City was covered by the long-range firepower of the Yan army.
No matter how Cao Jun Xiahou and Cao Hong and other generals change their formations or adjust their tactics, Zhang Wenyuan above the city always seems to be able to respond one step ahead, such a rapid response is simply miraculous, the reason for which Cao Ying is also as incompelled as General Le in Leping City, 5,000 casualties, the loss of more than a dozen large equipment in exchange for the unscathed head of Hanzhong City, not to mention the ordinary soldiers of Cao Jun, it is the hearts of these strategists and fierce generals are also pressed on a heavy mountain, Who would have thought that the Yan Army's defense capability would be so strong?
In the eyes of Cao Ying, in addition to Zhang Wenyuan's dispatch method, the timing judgment is almost a miracle, those Yan Army's large and small stone carts are the biggest threat, above the flat ground they are already amazingly powerful, and it is even more terrifying when it comes to condescending, obviously Cao Jun's first attack on Jiancheng tested that Zhang Wenyuan was left with one hand and did not do his best, today its launch range and accuracy have been greatly improved, the most shocking scene appeared at noon, a distance of one hundred and fifty steps, The huge stone cart at the head of the city fired only one stone bullet to completely destroy one of Cao Jun's well fences, and the cheers at the head of Hanzhong City were deafening!
However, if they see the power of the Suzaku Battalion in the siege of the city in the Battle of Leping, they will be glad that this Yan army's world-famous force is not in Hanzhong, and the bombardment cannon has a condescending advantage when defending the city, but in addition to the position arrangement, it also took Zhang Liao and the two equipment battalion commanders countless efforts, and the large bombardment cannons that can be pushed to the head of the city are only a few, most of them are mainly small bombardment cannons, and there is still a distance from the long-range power exerted by Li Tieniu's carefully arranged Xiangyang artillery position under Leping City. It is difficult to say whether it is Cao Jun's luck or misfortune.
In today's battle to defend the city, Zhang Liao specially invited Zhang Lu and other Han lieutenant generals to go to the city tower to watch the battle, and was personally accompanied by the military advisor, which was the decision of the two of them to discuss last night, and its intention was naturally aimed at the rumors of the previous Cao army. Zhang Hu stabilized the hearts of the people in the city with the propaganda techniques used by Yandi, but this method may not work for the generals of the Hanzhong army, so let them see with their own eyes the strong combat power of the Yan army in the battle to defend the city is the best way at the moment, it can be said that today's battle situation can be like this, and Zhang Liao's tricks have a deep connection, this is in front of everyone in Hanzhong, if you can't give a huge blow to the siege Cao army, Yan Yunjun will lose the face of all the Yan army and even the king of Yan.
However, this situation did not happen, on the contrary, the progress of today's battle situation was almost perfect for the Yan soldiers, and it also gave Zhang Lu and his Hanzhong generals a greater shock, Cao Jun took turns to dispatch tens of thousands of troops, and the impact on Hanzhong City was like a wave, even a hundred steps away You can also feel the sky-high fighting spirit on the opponent's soldiers, everyone can't help but ask themselves, if they come to guard the city, what will it look like in the face of such a strong army! But it is such a strong team, their formation is varied, the soldiers are not afraid of death, but they are very weak in front of the highly skilled Yan army, the archer team, the equipment battalion, the patrol soldiers, the division of labor and cooperation of the Yan army are impeccable under Zhang Liao's deployment, all the tactical actions are so skillful and clean, their strength is not seen with their own eyes, it must be hard to believe, there are Zhang Liao and Yan Yunjun to defend Hanzhong City, Zhang Lu and the determination of the generals under his command are greatly increased, Cao Jun really hit the south wall this time.
After a day of fierce fighting, Zhang Lu and the generals of Hanzhong enjoyed a wonderful offensive and defensive battle, the various means and tactics in the siege war were used by both sides to the fullest, although the spectators were not famous generals, but the military vision and experience were still relatively rich, and they could see the essence of this battle, and the sophisticated equipment of the Yan army and the skillful tactical ability of the soldiers made them breathtaking. And the result of one day of attack and defense is even more miraculous, no Cao soldier can successfully climb the city tower, the whole day of fierce battle Yan army killed only more than ten soldiers, it is not an exaggeration to say that there is no damage. Even if the city of Hanzhong is strong, if it is easy to get along, Zhang Lu can only repel Cao Jun's attack at most, and he will never think of it if he wants to be like Zhang Liao and Yan Jun.
"This object looks at the landscape as if it is in front of you, it is really new and magical!" At the beginning, Zhang Lu and the people maintained a very high vigilance even under the company of Zhang Hu, generally speaking, the city tower is the focus of the opponent's attack in the siege war, but since Zhang Zicai is here in person, he must have relied on it, and the consequences are as expected, Cao Jun's siege equipment was completely dumb by the Yan army, and there was no ability to pose a threat to the city, and everyone was as stable as Mount Tai! As soon as the mood is relaxed, the more attention will be paid to it, this is Zhang Lu's sigh after looking at the formation of the Cao army under the city with a clairvoyant mirror!
I don't know if this Gongqi's luck is good or not, I just took the clairvoyant mirror and pasted it on my eyes to take a look, but the angle was just right to stop at Cao Mengde's face, and even his beard could be seen clearly, Zhang Lu was trembling in his hand at that time! This is not to say that Zhang Taishou is as timid as a mouse, but it is more difficult to accept that a face suddenly appears in front of unprepared people, and it is not only Zhang Gongqi who has this performance, but also those famous generals who have been in battle for a long time, and the mountains of corpses and blood are like walking on the ground, and after observing this thing for the first time, they are not much calmer than today's Zhang Taishou. However, the princes of one side finally had extraordinary determination, and soon calmed down and found out the practical value of this thing in the military.
"Oh, this thing is actually from King Yan's thoughts? Well, looking at the front of him, there is this clairvoyant mirror, and King Yan is really eloquent! "I heard Zhang Hu say that although this clairvoyant mirror is from the hand of Wei Cuizeng, a skilled craftsman in Youzhou Appliances, it was Liu Yi, the king of Yan, who was originally proposed, Zhang Taishou's surprise was not under the close observation of Cao Cao's appearance, he seemed to be difficult to associate a king with the clairvoyant mirror in front of him, this sentence is roughly used here is a bit nondescript, but Zhang Lu is difficult to find the right words to describe Liu Yi, and this matter is indeed a bit subversive.
Of course, it is the honor to use the clairvoyant mirror to observe the situation of the Cao army, only Zhang Lu is the ear, and now in the Yan army, only the commander-level generals are qualified to equip this thing, this move is for the purpose of protecting the advanced technology of the Yan army, no one can be an exception, and those generals are also very supportive of the decision of the king of Yan after using this thing, although it is only a two-foot thing, but the effect it can play on the battlefield is immeasurable, and it is understandable to take such a secret method. Now Zhang Lu also thinks deeply, the hero of one side is by no means a straw bag, and after Zhang Hu pointed out that this is the military law of the Yan King, the generals of Hanzhong also have a lot less resentment, this time the Yan army came to Hanzhong, the deepest impression is not their super combat power but strict military discipline, in the observance of military law, the Yan soldiers are sometimes stubborn and almost ridiculous, but in today's war, the Yan army is well-trained and cooperative, who dares to make fun of it here? The courage of the three armies, the order follows!
"Wenyuan is really a good general of the country, and a good general of the country!" Today's battle Zhang Lu is very interested from the beginning to the end, the emotion is also very much, a whole day, the soldiers can take turns to rest, from beginning to end in the city can see Zhang Liao as a javelin straight figure, an accurate military order from his mouth from time to time, his judgment is fast, the accuracy of the situation analysis has let the generals of the Hanzhong Army see the demeanor of the famous generals of the Yan Army, in order to achieve the agreement with the military division of the heart of the people in Hanzhong, Wen Yuan this day has come up with the ability to press the bottom of the box, How can such a Zhang Liao not be praised by Zhang Lu? I am afraid that at this time, Zhang Gongqi has forgotten in his heart that at the time of the Sili War, it was Zhang Liao's outstanding performance that made it difficult for the Han and Zhang coalition forces to complete their achievements, and they were finally destroyed by the Yan army.
"Hey~~ Brother Lin, it's a pity that Commander Li is not here, if he is here, push out that big guy, according to the distance in front of him plus the height of the city, and then there is the commander's archery, I think it is not difficult to directly hit the place where Cao Mengde is located, if he can kill that Cao Cao under the bombardment cannon, I don't know what a miracle it will be! It's a pity, it's a pity! "This is the conversation between the two commanders of the Chang'an Battalion and the Yanyun Army after the Cao Army stopped attacking at dusk, and a large part of the front paragraph is from the mouth of Xiaolong, but the last word pity is that the two of them are in unison, not only to say that the two of them are also a year of extreme disappointment Shaking their heads, and their age looks very comedic.
The commander in Xiaolongyan is not Zhang Xiu, the commander of the Chang'an battalion, he has always called Gongxing General Zhang, and the title of commander belongs to Li Tieniu, because the captains of these equipment battalions are all from the Vermilion Bird Battalion, as a person in the army, it is taboo to forget their roots, and they can have today and Li Tieniu's vigorous cultivation is inseparable! What is the most powerful device in the Suzaku Camp? The answer of all the battalion officers and soldiers will be the same, the big guy in command, this sentence sounds quite ambiguous, Guan Hai laughed at Tie Niu with this that day, "Brother, how powerful is your guy?" ”
In the Vermilion Bird Battalion, Li Tieniu is famous for sharing weal and woe with ordinary soldiers, the only exception is the big guy, he loves this giant sky-bombing cannon made of stainless steel like a treasure, and he can't wait to sleep with it, his range and power are better than the large sky-bombarding cannon, but few people know how many people know, but Xiaolong Lin Yao was deeply valued by Li Tieniu when he was in the Vermilion Bird Camp, and naturally knew a lot, and when he attacked the city today, Cao Cao's location was at least more than 400 steps away from Hanzhong City, From this, you can see how terrifying the maximum range of the big guy is!
With Cao Cao's retreat, today's siege came to an end, Zhang Lu insisted on setting up a banquet in the mansion to celebrate Zhang Liao and a group of soldiers, the battle situation during the day was too long morale, even if Zhang Liao repeatedly resigned with military intelligence as the heavy resignation Zhang Lu just did not allow, of course, the wine will not appear on the banquet, and tonight's dinner is more unique, there are as many as seventeen people surnamed Zhang alone, just like the family banquet of the Zhang family!
