0159: Guangzong City, which is not easy to fight (for the alliance leader Jiang Xuanjing to add more 4)

Under the city of Guangzong, among the officers and soldiers, Huangfu Song listened to the battle report with a frown, and after a day of testing, he did not find out anything. In other words, he tried everything, but he couldn't find the slightest weakness. The number of troops is large, the ordnance is abundant and diverse, and the amount of food and grass is unknown, but it is absolutely indispensable. Moreover, the Yellow Turban Army here is not like the Yellow Turban Army in other places, which is always chaotic and has no organization to speak of.

"And they have very high morale, or almost madness. Maybe it's because they're not fighting for their lives, but for what they believe in? Li Yi said with some sighs.

Historically, Li Yi knows very well how terrifying it can be when the enemy he has to face in a war has a strong faith. For example, Catholicism in Europe, such as the Ichijo sect in Japan's Warring States period, under the condition of faith, even if it is just an ordinary person, it can burst out with terrifying power, not to mention that they are not afraid of death.

Even Li Yi believes that if Zhang Jiao is given another 20 to 30 years, he can really create a religion with a very terrifying influence, not like now, although there are more than one million Yellow Turban soldiers, how many people are really fanatical believers in the Taiping Dao? 100,000 or 20,000 out of 100,000 people is already very good. Most of them are just a bunch of scum who take advantage of the fire to rob.

Li Yi's words landed, and there was silence in the military tent, obviously the generals didn't have a good way. Of course, the method mentioned here is to capture the city without going to the bottom of it. After all, in a hard-fought siege, even if the officers and soldiers have absolutely superior siege equipment, there will be a large number of casualties. Especially when the number of troops is far inferior to that of the other side, such casualties can be very dangerous.

After all, now that Guangzong is scattered and surrounded, there are only about 20,000 officers and soldiers at each city gate. These troops, in the eyes of Huangfu Song, are already a very low number.

"It's better to ...... Try digging tunnels? Cao Cao proposed, "Cao Cao took a cursory look at the moat of Guangzong City today, it shouldn't be too deep. ”

In ancient times, the reason why the moat should be wide was to prevent the ladder carts from being able to directly build on the city wall, just like today's siege city, officers and soldiers must first build pontoon bridges before they can cross the moat. And digging deep is to prevent the enemy from digging tunnels and directly entering the city.

"Hmm...... You can give it a try. Huangfu Song thought for a while and said. If you can succeed, it is the best, but if you fail...... Anyway, there is no other way for the time being, so I just want to dig while thinking.

And in this regard, Li Yi and the others naturally have no opinion, after all, storming the city is always the most brainless method, if they can, no general is willing to do this.

Soon, in a forest not far behind the camp, about 1,000 officers and soldiers began to dig tunnels day and night. At the same time, Li Yi, who returned to the East Gate camp, was also pondering how to break the city.

"Although the Yellow Turban Army in Guangzong City no longer has the weaknesses of the previous Yellow Turban Army, there is still one biggest disadvantage, that is, among the three Zhang Jiao brothers and even the many leaders of the Yellow Turban Army, there is no one who knows the art of war at all." Li Yi thought to himself.

It's just that this idea just came to him, and he thought a little helplessly, "But the problem is that Zhang Jiao obviously understands his weaknesses, so he can't go out of the city at all, is it possible, can he still scold them?" Thinking of this, Li Yi immediately shook his head and vetoed the idea.

In his previous life, Li Yi always felt that later generations were too civilized to scold people, but after coming to this era, Li Yi knew that it was not because the ancients scolded people too civilized, but because only those who were too civilized could be recorded. And in this day and age, who would have squirted with you for that long? It's like in Merging States, if someone scolds another person, the other side will definitely go straight to the other side, bring the family? That's definitely a problem that can only be solved by dying.

As for the literati...... Li Yi was fortunate to have seen Cai Yong, Qiao Xuan and others scolding the eunuchs, and those who didn't understand the words and sentences probably thought it was a wonderful article.

Of course, there is another point that is very important, if Li Yi also writes a scolding article like Cai Yong, maybe half of the entire Guangzong City except Zhang Jiao will be able to understand it. And if you write an unusually straightforward expletive......

Well, not to mention anything else, it is estimated that Huangfu Song will cut down Li Yi, a bad disciple, for his deceased uncle.

"It seems that if you have a chance, you really have to find a few resourceful people." After half a ring, Li Yi, who had no countermeasures, shook his head helplessly.

Inside Gwangjong Castle.

"Big brother, why don't the enemy attack? Are you holding back some bad idea? Zhang Liang asked with some concern, in his heart, those officers and soldiers did not fight well, and there were more bad water than one another. Otherwise, why would the Yellow Turban Army, which numbered more than 200,000 people, be trapped in Guangzong City by officers and soldiers and dare not come out?

"Hehe, the third brother should not be anxious, there are few officers and soldiers, so he is naturally unwilling to attack the city directly, no matter what method they use, we just need to respond to all changes with the same." Zhang Jiao chuckled. The grain and grass in Gwangjong City are enough for the defenders in the city to eat for 3 years, and the military needs are ...... Even if you desperately consume it every day, it is enough to support a month.

Just like Li Yi thought, Zhang Jiao knew the disadvantages of the Yellow Turban Army very clearly, otherwise, he would not have tried so desperately to win over the family before. However, although he doesn't understand the art of war or anything, he can see people's hearts very clearly.

"In 1 year, or even shorter, if this army of officers and soldiers is still unable to break through Guangzong City, then the authority of the Han court will inevitably be damaged, and during this time, the local forces will suppress the Yellow Turban Army in various places, causing their strength to skyrocket, and there will inevitably be ambitious people jumping out." Zhang Jiao said with a sneer.

"Uh......" Zhang Liang touched the back of his head when he heard this, he basically didn't understand Zhang Jiao's words.

"Hehe, as long as the third brother knows, as long as we hold Guangzong, we will definitely be able to achieve the final victory!" Zhang Jiao didn't care when he saw this.

It's just that when Zhang Liang left with a relieved face, Zhang Jiao's confident expression instantly became gloomy, because, although he didn't lie, if the Yellow Turban Army could hold on to Guangzong, the world would indeed be in chaos, but his words were not finished, because he didn't tell Zhang Liang what the Yellow Turban Army should do after the chaos in the world. Could it be that the Yellow Turban Army could defeat the officers and soldiers, and then be able to defeat those local heroes?
