On August 29, the sky was overcast, and it was the turn of the Wei army to attack Suxian. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

I don't know if it was to "retaliate" against Zhao Hongrun for the two times to spy on their Qi army's siege, in short, today, Tian Tan also took a group of Qi army generals to watch the Wei army's attack on Su County on a dirt slope.

Unlike the tentative siege battle the day before, today, Zhao Hongrun really wanted to pose some threats to Suxian.

After all, the day before yesterday, in order to expel the Chu army hiding in the north of Suxian, the Wei army did not have enough time to build war weapons such as catapults and well carts, but only temporarily built some cloud ladders.

What impact can these alone have on Su County?

Therefore, Zhao Hongrun only tentatively attacked two rounds that day, and the combined casualties were not a few hundred, so the Wei army withdrew early.

But today, because the Qi army led by Tian Tan yesterday has created a gap in the southern city wall of Suxian County, in other words, it has made great progress and breakthroughs in this siege battle, and Zhao Hongrun is also a little impatient, after all, if it continues like this, the limelight of the Wei army will be suppressed by the Qi army.

This time the Wei army attacked Suxian, and still chose the northern city wall of Suxian.

First, the military camps of the Wei army's Fencheng army, Yanling army, and Shangshui army were all built in the northwest and north direction of Su County, so the north city wall of Su County was chosen to attack the distance was relatively close, and it was easy to return to the camp; Second, although it would be more advantageous to attack the southern city wall of Suxian, it was even difficult for the Wei army to enter the city with the gap created by the Qi army. But the problem is that the gap is an advantage created by the Qi army, although Zhao Hongrun has the intention to grab the credit, it is not good to take the progress of the Qi army for his own use in front of everyone.

"Your Highness."

In the Wei army's main formation, Zong Wei Chang Wei Jiao nodded in one direction and signaled to Zhao Hongrun.

Zhao Hongrun turned his head to look in that direction, and saw Tian Tan leading a group of Qi army generals, who were watching from a distance, seemingly wanting to watch the Wei army's battle against Su County today.

Hum! Is it because a gap was created in the southern city wall of Suxian County yesterday, so he came to show off his might?

Zhao Hongrun secretly slandered Tian Tan, although he knew very well that with Tian Tan's bearing, he would not be as unbearable as he thought.

Just like Zhao Hongrun watching the battle of the Qi army in the past few days, Tian Tan came today, but it was just a normal "copy", to put it bluntly, to see if he could learn anything valuable from the Wei army.

This is the eagerness to learn as a general—whether it is from friendly troops or from enemy troops, as long as it is good, it is what you should do as a general. It seems that some stupid generals who are so arrogant that they do not need to learn from other people's methods of fighting often do not end up optimistic.

"Ignore it."

Zhao Hongrun said lightly.

At this time, Cai Baohu, the battalion general of the Xiwei Battalion of the Fencheng Army, and Wu Ji of the Shangshui Army, the two rode their mounts and came to Zhao Hongrun in person.

They are the protagonists of today - according to the agreement after conquering Xiangcheng, after the two cities of Xuanxian and Qixian, the third city of Suxian should be the turn of the Fencheng army to be responsible for the attack, but because two-thirds of the Fencheng army is stationed in Xiangcheng and Xuanxian respectively, Zhao Hongrun called the Shangshui army to assist the Fencheng army.

Anyway, Cai Baohu and Wu Ji fought side by side in the original night battle, and their relationship was very good. Cai Baohu didn't mind letting the Shang Shui Army earn some military merits, and Wu Ji didn't mind giving the Fen Army a hand.

It's just that at this moment, there is a faint sense of confusion and incomprehension on the faces of the two.

"Your Highness, do you really want to arrange it like that?"

Wu Ji hugged his fists and asked, he had some doubts about Zhao Hongrun's tactical arrangements today.

"Do as the king commands." After admonishing Wu Ji, Zhao Hongrun looked up at Cai Baohu and said with a smile: "General Cai, please rest assured, temporarily restrain your fighting spirit, this king guarantees that Suxian will be captured by the Fencheng army." ”

Cai Baohu reached out and grabbed his hair, according to his character, he actually doesn't like to use any strategies, but Zhao Hongrun has talked about this, what else can he say?

"Even so, I want to be a pioneer officer!" Cai Baohu said.

Zhao Hongrun smiled, and it was up to Cai to capture the tiger, because in his tactical arrangement, today's Wei army will also not confront the Chu army in Suxian, just like the Qi army yesterday.

After some instructions, Cai Baohu and Wu Ji nodded and left with their fists clenched.

"......" Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Zhao Hongrun glanced up at the sky.

At the same time, Tian Tan was on that dirt slope, looking at the whole picture of the Wei army.

The Yan Ling army of the Wei army did not come...... It seems that Ji Run does not intend to launch a full-army attack on Suxian, well, this is a wise move. Merely......

He frowned and looked at the Wei army's formation, and he found that there was not a single catapult in the Wei army, not even the most basic ladder.

What is Ji Yun thinking?

Tian Tan was really a little puzzled, because in his opinion, the Wei army did not have catapults, wells, and ladders, which meant that no matter how many troops there were, they would not be able to have any impact on Suxian.

And at this time, beside him, there was Zhong Sun Sheng, the admiral of the Northern Navy of Qi State, who saw this person stretch out his hand and point to the ranks of the Wei army, and said in surprise: "Tian Shuai, look. ”

Following the direction pointed by Zhong Sun Sheng's finger, Tian Tan squinted his eyes and found that there seemed to be many bundles of firewood piled up in the rear of the Wei army, and more firewood was being continuously transported here by the soldiers of the Yanling army.

Ji Run...... What exactly are you thinking?

Tian Tan was even more confused.

At this time, the rest of the generals also noticed this and laughed maliciously.

"Then what does Ji Run want to do?"

"I understand, he wants to burn the Chu army in the city......"

"Clever! Sure enough, it's a good move! ”

Listening to the cynicism of the generals around him to Zhao Hongrun, Tian Tan frowned.

After all, although he was extremely disliked by Zhao Hongrun's short-sighted and arrogant character, it was undeniable that the latter was also an outstanding commander with great military achievements, how could he do something stupid?

Or is there something deep in that......

Tian Tan said secretly.

As for the generals beside him, he didn't stop it, after all, Zhao Hongrun forcibly "borrowed" Gan Mao, the general of the Donglai Army, from the side of the Qi army, not to mention that the generals were angry in their hearts, and even Tian Tan couldn't let go.

But then again, what is Gan Mao, the former general of the Donglai Army of Qi who is currently serving as a pawn in the Wei army, what is he doing?

Oh, he was dumbfounded as he listened to the story of the Commander of his clan, Jiao Meng, about the tasks they had to shoulder in this battle.

"What? I...... Did I hear me right? ”

Pointing to the bundle of firewood under his feet, Gan Mao asked dumbfoundedly: "Carrying a shield, braving the rain of arrows from the Chu army, bring this bundle of firewood to the city of Suxian and set it on fire." …… Is this what I'm waiting for today? ”

Wu Changjiao Meng was originally a very kind person, and he did not deliberately embarrass Gan Mao because he insulted their merchant army, but waved his hand and said humorously: "It's not a bundle, Your Highness said, each person should have at least ten round-trips, that is, ten bundles." ”

"I ......"

Gan Mao was choked and almost didn't catch his breath.

Otherwise, in today's "battle", nearly 50,000 people from the Fencheng army and the Shangshui army participated, and there were also 20,000 Yanling troops cutting down trees in the rear to make firewood, and there were too many soldiers involved.

"What nonsense!" The soldier Le Leopard glanced at Gan Mao, and said coldly: "What the boss says, I'll just do what I do, General Yuan." His last salutation, full of sarcasm, presumably meant that he had not really accepted Gan Mao, even though Gan Mao had instructed them to storm Su County.

At this time, Yang Wu said to Gan Mao with a smile: "It's okay, I will protect you, Lao Tzu's martial arts, invincible in the world!" ”

The corners of Gan Mao's mouth twitched: What kind of person is Yang Wu, in just a day or two, he has already figured it out.

At this time, the soldier Li Hui also persuaded: "General Gan, don't worry, since His Royal Highness King Su let us do this, he must have his intentions." ”

"I hope so." Gan Mao sighed, and then said to Li Hui: "I am no longer a general, you can call me Gan Mao." ”

As soon as the words fell, the military horn of the Shang Shui Army sounded, and the unique loud voice of Ran Teng, the thousand-man general, sounded in front of him.

"Little cubs! Pick up the firewood at your feet and rush it for Lao Tzu! ”

"Oh-"

In an instant, Ran Teng's thousand-man team, no, it should be said that almost half of the soldiers of the Shangshui Army, all picked up the firewood at their feet and launched a charge towards Suxian.

The majestic momentum made Wu Yuan, the guard on the gate of the north city wall of Su County, frightened for a while.

It is no wonder that after all, the Wei infantry is in momentum, but it has to overshadow the Qi army.

But when Wu Yuan took a closer look at the Wei troops who were charging, he was a little confused, because he found that those Wei soldiers didn't even carry weapons, but just held a shield in one hand and firewood in the other, and just charged towards his Su County.

This...... What's the situation?

Even if Wu Yuan was a brave general, he could not understand what he was seeing.

And beside him, Suxian County Gong Dongmen Mi was even more dazed.

After a long time, Dongmen Mi said with a strange expression: "Wei Jun...... It's not going to burn down the city, is it? ”

"......" Wu Yuan glanced at Dongmen Mi inexplicably, and said in his heart: The city walls are all made of stones, can you burn them for me?

But then again, apart from this explanation, he really couldn't figure out what Wei Jun wanted to do.

At this time, a nearby general asked: "General, do you want to release arrows?" ”

Wu Yuan pondered for a moment, then nodded and said, "Although I don't know what Wei Jun wants to do...... Hmm, they should have wanted to burn the city wall of my county, although they knew that the city wall could not be burned, but they still ...... Don't want Wei Jun to be happy and release arrows! ”

With his order, arrows rained down on the wall of Suxian County.

It's a pity that the soldiers of Shang Shui have long been wary of this matter: because they did not carry weapons this time, they simply held their shields above their heads, so that the threat of the Chu army's arrow rain to them was almost minimal.

In the blink of an eye, the soldiers of the Shangshui army all over the mountains rushed to the city of Suxian County like a tide, only to see that he did not stop, except for a few soldiers who took out their tongues of fire and lit the firewood, the rest of the people just threw the bundle of firewood in the fire, turned around and ran.

The Chu army on the upper floor of Suxian County did not know where to go, and after releasing a few arrows, they stopped shooting arrows.

After all, arrows are also consumables, and since the damage to the Wei army is minimal, what is the strength of the shooting?

The atmosphere of the whole battlefield became strange.

The soldiers of the Shang Shui Army and the Fen Cheng Army went back and forth between the enemy city and the main formation, throwing more and more firewood into the sea of fire under the city of Suxian to fuel the fire, while the Chu soldiers on the upper floor of the city town of Su County looked at this scene with a smile and made fun of the stupidity of the Wei army.

"Fool, the walls are all stones, how can they be burned?"

"Hahaha, Wei Jun is all elm heads......"

"In the Wei army, there are many of us Chu people, tsk, it's really because of the bad brains that will take refuge in the enemy country......"

However, the soldiers of Shangshui ignored the taunts of the Chu soldiers, and carried firewood back and forth again and again, burning the fire under the city of Suxian more and more vigorously, although it did not pose any threat to the Chu soldiers on the city wall, but it can be clearly seen that the wall tiles of this section of the city wall have gradually changed from cyan to bright red, which means that the temperature of these wall tiles has reached an alarming level.

And a few miles away, Tian Tan stood on the dirt slope, quietly watching this scene.

Although he was more and more convinced that the young His Royal Highness King Wei Guosu must have some intention since he gave such an order, he had not yet guessed the truth.

And beside him, those Qi army generals were still laughing at the stupidity of the Wei army.

"If I were Chu Jun, I would probably be panicked at this moment......"

"But no, you see, the walls are burning, hahaha......"

Time passed little by little, and the city wall of Suxian County burned for several hours, but in the end, nothing happened.

The city wall of Suxian County is still standing unharmed in the sea of fire, intact.

At this time, the Wei army's main formation sounded the movement of Mingjin to withdraw his troops.

Seeing this, the generals of the Qi army around Tian Tan laughed even louder.

"That Ji Run...... Haha, after a hard day, I don't know what he's doing......"

"The problem is that there is no ...... to be gained yet"

"There is a gain, but it makes the Chu soldiers in Suxian County shocked, you see, the other party simply didn't let go of the arrows later......"

……

Hearing these words, Tian Tan's brows furrowed, and he was secretly surprised in his heart: Could it be that I am thinking too much? So Ji Yun is just messing around?

At the same time, the Wei soldiers all returned to the team, and Cai Baohu and Wu Ji also returned to Zhao Hongrun's place.

The expressions of the two of them were really a little strange.

The reason is that they obeyed Zhao Hongrun's tactical arrangement, but they did not pose any threat to the Chu soldiers in Suxian County.

However, after glancing at each other, Cai Baohu and Wu Ji didn't say much very interestingly, after all, the one in front of them was His Royal Highness King Su.

"Your Highness, then we will go back to the camp first......"

The two of them inevitably said a little discouraged.

Hearing this, Zhao Hongrun said jokingly: "Don't worry, let the whole army look at the city wall." …… Our army will wait to see a good show before leaving. ”

Fun?

Cai Baohu and Wu Ji looked at each other, unable to understand what Zhao Hongrun meant.

But since Zhao Hongrun said so, they had no choice but to do so, and ordered the whole army to look at the section of the city wall that was still burning in the raging sea of fire.

After a long stick of incense, there was no movement at all.

Seeing this, Tian Tanxian, who was watching from afar, couldn't bear it anymore, muttered something similar to wasting time, and then shook his head and prepared to leave.

And at this moment, there was a thunderclap in the sky.

He subconsciously touched his face.

"It's raining?"

Tian Tan muttered.

The rain came quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it turned into a downpour, and when Tian Tan and the generals were in a hurry to return to the camp, there was a sudden collapse in the direction of the north city wall of Suxian County.

"How...... Yes?! ”

Tian Tan's face was full of horror, and the Qi generals beside him who had just made fun of Wei Jun's stupidity were now even more stunned, and even their eyes almost popped out.

Tian Tan and the Qi generals were stunned.

The Chu generals in Su County were stunned.

Wei Jun was stunned.

Wu Yuan and Dongmen Mi were stunned.

Cai Baohu and Wu Ji were stunned.

Gan Mao, the "pawn" in the merchant army, was stunned.

The entire battlefield was silent, only the majestic rain.

After being stunned for a while, the Wei soldiers and soldiers looked at each other before they burst out with a cry of joy comparable to heavenly thunder.

Because the gap created by their Wei army in the northern city wall of Suxian County was several times that of the gap created by the Qi army in the southern city wall of Suxian County with catapults.

Even if the Chu soldiers in Su County rushed to repair it day and night, they didn't want to repair it in a short time.

And at this moment, Zhao Hongrun, who was drenched in the rain, laughed, turned the horse's head, and waved his hand heavily after glancing at the location of Tian Tan and the others.

"I'm done watching the show...... Collect the troops! (To be continued.) )
