Chapter 401: Half the City
For the monk, the first hurdle is to step through the wolf army, which is the ability he urgently needs to show in front of the officials and the ministers of Gao Yu.
The inside of the city was five thousand against two thousand.
Outside the city were ten thousand pairs against three thousand.
Hit, don't fight!
Hit, don't fight!
In the hearts of the monk and Lu Qian, countless concepts kept churning.
"Why did the monkey come here in a hurry to provoke?" The monk hesitated to talk to himself,
Lu Qian thought about it seriously, "I can't see it at the moment, do you think there is fraud in it?" ”
The monk suddenly realized, as if nodding, "Or not, just try it." Lu Qian understood that this was to conduct fire reconnaissance.
Sure enough, a thousand cavalry interspersed to the south, a thousand cavalry to the north, and the fleet also sent two warships upstream and two downstream.
Later, Liang Shanjun raised a huge hot air balloon in the city, and there were two lookouts on the hot air balloon, each holding the latest high-powered telescope, to check the surrounding military situation.
The monk guessed correctly, as soon as he made a move on his side, the wild wolf army instantly changed the posture of the troops inside and outside the city.
The 2,000 troops in the city instantly drew 1,000 men and entered the barricades of houses in the southwest, and even began to set up barricades and improvised bunkers. The 3,000 troops outside the city also rushed to send cavalry, closely watching the northern and southern cavalry of the Liangshan Army.
Most obviously, the wolf army gathered around the government made a strong posture of preparation for attack, and the soldiers began to check the equipment, bows and arrows, knives and guns, and gunpowder. Prepare for battle in a quarter of an hour.
The monk and Lu Qian were taken aback, from the transmission of the order to the completion of the combat preparations, it was only a quarter of an hour!
There were no panicked inquiries, quarrels, incitements, or suspicions from any soldier, everything was orderly, step-by-step, and as precise as those astronomical instruments that were scarce.
Such an army is powerful, and such an opponent is the most entangled. People are not afraid of you going to war at all, but are ready to fight in front of you, and if you want to fight, he will fight, and he has an indifferent attitude.
Tactical intimidation turned into a bluff, and the two guys really had a helpless expression, so they could only secretly curse in their hearts, "Brute!" ”
Eating two thousand wild wolf troops in one bite, he has an appetite, but his teeth may not be able to hold it. Therefore, they did not dare to go to war, not because they felt that they could not defeat the wolf army, but because they felt that there was really no need to lose both sides in the first place.
What kind of fate Liang Shanjun will have if he fights out, the two of them obviously know it, so Liang Shanjun began to lower his tone.
The monk rode his horse around in front of the monkey several times, and the soldiers of the Liangshan army felt that they had closed their mouths, and the main general was about to talk, so the soldiers got out of the way.
The monkey looked at him dangling with disdain, and threw a dirty word over in a daze, "Sassy *, if you have something to say!" ”
The monk did not stop, but brought the horse back and stopped in front of the monkey.
"Okay, then I'll tell you to listen." The monk quickly poured out some of the links that he had just thought of.
"In the absence of a suitable way in the imperial court, the two sides of Yongxing City each occupy half of it, and the government is the turtle in the urn anyway, so it will be put on hold for the time being and let the respective bosses decide. As for the armies of the two sides, they set up a 20-step separation zone with the government as the dividing line, and did not invade each other. ”
The monkey pondered for a moment, remembering Lin Chong's entrustment, and he recognized it without squeaking. So the soldiers on both sides, under the leadership of their own generals, tacitly retreated twenty steps back.
Lin Chong couldn't help but smile when he got that Yongxing City was actually ruled by half of the city, maybe this is the will of heaven, there will be such and such unsatisfactory if he captures or loses this city, but the division of the city just makes the plan in his heart seamless.
I don't know if it's the lesson from the last time, which impressed Tong Guan too deeply in his memory, but fortunately it was something else. After this war, Tong Guan stayed in the Xuanshuai line in Yanzhou, and resolutely refused to go to the front line.
The 15,000 Liangshan Army was stationed in Yongxing City, and on the way from Yanzhou to Yongxing, the Forbidden Army and the Western Army had a total of 100,000 people. Tong Guan plans to take Yongxing this time, but also to sweep away the other nine party walled cities.
Of course, the most important thing is to be able to kill the wild wolf army, but the military report from Tong Guan and others is actually divided into cities.
After a fire, he clearly knew that Lu Qian would not talk nonsense, this time it must be the Liangshan Army and the Wild Wolf Army facing each other and stalemate. At present, the monk feels that the time is not ripe to annihilate the wild wolf army.
Lu Qian also made a suggestion in the military newspaper, because the Wild Wolf Army is very powerful, and relying on the Liangshan Army alone is no longer enough to completely suppress it. It's really the day of the decisive battle, I'm afraid that the casualties will be too heavy, and it's best to find an ally to carry out a comprehensive blockade of the wolf army.
Although Lu Qian did not say it explicitly, he hoped that Xuanfu Xingyuan would secretly use the strength of the party to complete this idea.
There are things that can be done and can't be said. Lu Qian also knew that Youyou's mouth was powerful, so he reminded Tong Guan so vaguely.
Time passed day by day, during which Xuan Shuai took the trouble to spend several lobbyists, and gradually increased the weight, from the initial 10,000 stone grain to 50,000 stone.
Lin Chong ignored it at all, you Tong Guan is so good, you actually invited a lobbyist, but unfortunately, now it's not food that can solve it.
Tong Guan received the news of the breakdown of the negotiations, and was noncommittal, and then opened the latest military report, his eyes closed, and then suddenly lit up.
"Seed Master Dao led the Western Army out of Yongxing, Liu Fa led the forbidden army to strictly blockade, this battle must be concerted, otherwise there will be no good fruit to eat"
The party members finally waited for the message from the Song army, and actually wanted to work together to kill the biggest opponent, the wolf army.
Wei Minglan immediately made a decision, sent 30,000 iron cavalry to Donggou, and then there were party elites, gathering to Dongkuoxiagou and other places, it is said that there are at least 60,000 or 70,000 people.
"There are more than 30,000 people in the Dangxiang Iron Cavalry, and it is eighty miles away from Xiagou Bupu!"
"The Imperial Forbidden Army and the Western Army are also gradually moving east to the city, and it is expected to arrive tomorrow!"
"The Lion Rock position has been arranged!"
"The new weapon has been tested and can be deployed at any time."
Lin Chong listened to his subordinates' reports on the enemy's military situation one by one, and after listening to the military report, he gritted his teeth and held back.
Tong Guan actually got involved with the party members again, trying in vain to cut off his own back road, and he didn't know what to do.
His original plan was to refrigerate the new weapon for ten days, but now it was necessary to advance and use the latest weapon to deter the other party.
When the party members and the forbidden army of the imperial court gathered together, the monk suddenly had an army of 60,000 in his hands, and he was full of strength.
With so many troops, in the end, they still have to shape their own monuments through battles, so the next day, the monk confidently held a departure ceremony.
This time, it's time to chop that bastard to shredded meat!
