Chapter 160 Illusion
With Liu Wei's order, for a while, the fire oil and boiling water poured down, mercilessly pouring on the besieging enemy, and the ensuing little sparks turned into skyrocketing fires in an instant.
This group of soldiers besieging the city is just ordinary people after a short period of training, and the rest of the war will not let their own private army act as the vanguard, and this kind of cannon fodder is better to fill this group of outsiders.
From beginning to end, in Yu Zhan's heart, this group of people attracted by money and food only has such value.
These soldiers who are besieging the city are new soldiers, where can they withstand such pain, where have they seen such a picture, one by one the soldiers turned into fireballs and kept falling, and many people below who could not dodge in time wailed in the flames, and finally gradually lost their lives.
Timid, they wanted to retreat, and then looked at the soldiers who kept rushing up from behind, and they had no way back at all.
I have to say that what Liu Wei said is accurate, it is just a group of rabble.
Seeing that the chaos below was constantly expanding, Liu Wei sneered in his heart: "Come on, come forward as much as you want, I will let you know that my Yuyang County is not something you can do at will." ”
"Archers prepare." Liu Wei's arrangement was not to hurt them all at once, but to temper them slowly little by little.
It seemed tragic just now, but the real casualties were only more than a hundred people, just to knock those who were about to touch the walls and ladders to hell, as for some of the people below who suffered unjustified disasters, then I can only be sorry.
After spending time and again, Liu Wei was waiting for more to get closer to the city wall, and there were rows of oil pots behind him that were constantly tumbling.
Seeing that the timing was about the same, and almost everyone who could get close was close, Liu Wei roared: "Shoot, shoot me hard!" ”
The rows of archers in the rear kept rotating, and the rain of arrows in the sky poured down instantly with the sound of breaking through the air, harvesting dense lives.
The screams were incessant, each of which stimulated the hearts of the surrounding soldiers, and now more people hesitated, they didn't want to lose their lives to enjoy the final reward.
The general trend has gone, this time it is a sneak attack, just a little bit, seeing that their own people are about to touch the wall, but why do they react, and resist so fiercely.
"Withdraw." can't give up their lives in vain, although this group of people can't look down on Yu Zhan, but he has the right to have soldiers, and he can't fight it out.
However, this time it was not without gains, at least he saw that although Yuyang County was strong, it was not so strong that it could slay dragons as rumored, and they were just a little bit closer to attacking it.
After Ming Jin collected his troops, Yu began to analyze the battle situation and think about the next strategic arrangement, in his opinion, it was only a matter of time before Yuyang County was breached by himself, and the number of troops in the city was no more than 20,000, and he was an army of 100,000. And after many temptations, I thought that the food and grass materials in the city were slowly scarce.
And the most important point is that what he is sending now is just a civilian army that can't be put on the table, but the defenders of Yuyang County seem to be fighting extremely hard, if they send their own 10,000 elite private troops, it will still be captured.
"Wait." Yu Zhan thought in his heart that the private army was his real pro-army, and he couldn't let them be injured because of the small Yuyang County, so let this group of people test and consume the defenders of Yuyang County for themselves.
No matter how many people died in this group, he felt better in his heart, so that he didn't have to pay them military salaries, and besides, people like this could be bought and supplemented with money and food when they died.
Liu Wei looked at the enemy army who was once again repelled by himself, without sadness or joy, and left after continuing to arrange the defense, he still needed to explain the battle situation to Liu Feiyun.
In the county government Liu Feiyun room, Liu Wei said: "My lord, today we repelled the enemy army again, and fought several times, and the main general of this army seems to have frequent means, but he is a little deliberately rigid and does not know how to be flexible. Just like today, it's much worse than your previous command. ”
Liu Wei's words made him a little curious, and asked, "What's the matter?" ”
"That's right." Liu Wei explained the matter in general, and felt a little funny at the enemy generals as he spoke: "Many of their arrangements are leftovers for adults, and every time you make a few clicks, you will understand their intentions." ”
"And their team is too useless, just a little blow will cause chaos in the phalanx, this is the worst of the several armies that Xia Guan has encountered, I don't know who gave them the courage to dare to offend my Yuyang County."
"It's not better." Liu Feiyun said with a smile: "It's the other party, it's a good time to have fun with them over there, this army is controlled by the rest of the Xihao country, and now the Xihao country is divided and fights for itself." Ambitious people are restless, and there are many people who are watching our side. ”
"Fight nicely, see if you can wipe them all out, and let those who have the heart of stealing evidence see."
"Your Excellency, please rest assured, the lower officials will never let you down."
went to the army to fight, and the next days were a battle of wits and courage on both sides. Yu Zhan thought that it wouldn't be long before this Yuyang County would become his bag.
It's a pity that what he doesn't know is that all his every move is under Liu Feiyun's control, and the guards of his camp have long been replaced by Liu Feiyun's intelligence spies.
The three illusions of siege: the defenders are running out; There is not much food and grass in the city; Tomorrow City will be broken.
But in a blink of an eye, after more than a dozen battles, large and small, each time it seems that he is not pleased, but the rest of the battle is still unknown.
Liu Wei waited, every time he pretended to be almost defeated, he was paralyzing the rest of the battle, waiting for an opportunity to break the enemy army in one fell swoop.
And this opportunity came very quickly.
The news was provided by Liu Feiyun, Yu Zhan thought that the time was ripe, from all indications, the defenders of Yuyang County were already weak, as long as the sneak attack was successful, Yuyang County was close at hand.
The time and battle plan were placed in front of Liu Feiyun's desk, and Liu Feiyun did not doubt it after reading it, because it was provided by Liu Yi. He summoned Liu Wei and said: "Lieutenant Liu, this officer has received news that the enemy army is preparing to attack my Yuyang County at night tonight, what do you think about this?" ”
"My lord, is the information credible?" Liu Wei thinks that he should not be an adult, he has had a similar situation before, and the news provided has not been missed, so it should be true. It was a rare opportunity, but out of caution he reconfirmed.
Liu Feiyun nodded: "Don't say ten percent, ninety percent of the certainty is there, how does Lieutenant Liu think to seize this opportunity?" ”
"If the other party comes in a big way, we can send people to defend the city, and then take advantage of the night to hide troops outside the city, and wait for the right time to kill from the belly and back, most of the enemy troops are new soldiers, and they will be chaotic and can be broken."
"Okay, this matter will be arranged by you, if there is any new news, I will inform you in advance."
The deployment is carried out quietly, and the so-called plan is planned, but the other side must not be aware of its own movements, otherwise it may be used and fall short.
As night fell, the scorching heat of the sun still gave off the earth.
The city was as usual, as it was supposed to be, but beneath the city, the defenders who were supposed to be resting were ready to deal with another garrison outside the city.
The defenders outside the city were led by Liu Wei himself, because the key to this battle was them, and they needed to divide the enemy's formation at the first time and disturb the opponent's army.
"How's it going?" Liu Wei outside the city led these 10,000 men and horses to hide in a dense forest, and the horse's mouth was all covered, so he couldn't make the slightest movement.
The spy replied: "Lord Lieutenant, the enemy army has been dispatched, and the siege battle is about to begin. ”
"Probe!"
The offensive and defensive battle of Yuyang County has begun, and in order to cooperate with the act, the defenders on the city tower hurriedly shouted: "Enemy attack, enemy attack!" ”
However, the defense had already been arranged, and the resistance did not break out at the first time, but gave the other party a glimmer of hope.
But I believe that it will not be long before there will be a deep despair of convenience.
"Report, the two sides have begun to fight, our army is holding the city, and the opponent's attack is very fierce, but the rear army has not yet completely pressed."
"Probe!"
Liu Wei did not choose to attack at this time, he wanted to directly disrupt the opponent at one time, but he couldn't let the opponent have a chance to organize a counterattack.
Yu Zhan rode on his horse, quietly watching the changes in the battle situation in the back, although it was night, but through the spread of the war and the stars, he could probably still see it.
"I didn't expect the defenders of Yuyang County to react so quickly, and it was really in vain, but after today, your 'myth' will be shattered by me."
Yu Zhan's heart was full of anticipation, he saw that although his army had not yet attacked the city, it was almost broken through the defense line in many directions, and he believed that it would not take long.
It's a pity that things can't go as he wants, Yu Zhan said with a displeased face: "Damn, it's so tenacious!" ”
He would never let go of such a good opportunity, and the battle in front of him seemed to be in a delicate balance, and it should be broken by adding more people. Without hesitation, he shouted: "Yu Jiajun rushed up for me, today, Yuyang County will definitely belong to me!" ”
The addition of the private army seemed to have broken the balance, and many people rushed to the city wall in an instant, which made Yu Zhan who saw it overjoyed, and he couldn't wait to rush up immediately, as if he had seen the victory scene of the city gate opening to welcome his entry into the city.
At this time, the spy in the dense forest reported again: "My lord, the enemy army has been pressed by the whole army, and only more than 1,000 people are left in the rear to protect the main general. ”
"Okay." It was at this time that Liu Weikeng pulled out his matching knife and said: "All the soldiers, follow me to attack, drink the enemy's blood today and get on the horse!" ”
There was no roar of killing, all of them were held in their hearts and turned into motivation.
In the dark night, with the killing of Liu Wei and others, it was as if a torrent was rolling in. The night is the best cover color, and at this moment the enemy army is fighting heartily, and I didn't notice their arrival at the first time.
But when it was discovered, it was too late, and 10,000 soldiers and horses rushed directly into the 100,000 army besieging the city, but it was divided into two in a few breaths, and a few back and forth were scattered.
Emotions can be infectious, especially in the face of life and death, they are all infantry in the siege, and they can't resist the charge of cavalry at all, not to mention resisting, it is a blessing not to escape.
The city did not hide at this moment, and directly killed the enemy troops who rushed to the city, and then counterattacked.
The army's heart has been lost, the defeat has been decided, seeing that the rest of the battle is about to be split, the chest is angry, but it can't give him a chance to breathe at all, Liu Wei's cavalry has divided its troops to attack him.
Staying in Qingshan is not afraid of no firewood, seeing that there is nothing to do, Yu Zhan decisively chose to escape, and he instructed the people around him: "Give me a broken queen!" ”
