Chapter 526: Intrigues
Then again, even if he thought of some good way to break the city at this time, he wouldn't tell Gongsun Zhi.
The reason is very simple, because the army of the Jin State was forced to join the Wei army under pressure from the rear, and it did not really want to surrender to the Wei army at all.
He Jin Guo has already tied Kang Guo to the chariot, and this time he used troops against Cang Guo to really get some benefits, not to pick up scraps behind Wei Jun's ass.
"I thought General Tang Mu would have some good plan, so it seems that our army will only have to attack."
When Gongsun Zhi said this, he looked at Tang Mu, and finally said his true intention of sending someone to invite Tang Mu to come: "General Tang Mu, in recent days, it has been the vanguard of our Wei army, and after several hard battles, the soldiers are quite tired, and the soldiers of your army have been repairing for many days, it is a good time to carry out wheel warfare on Licheng, tomorrow's siege, it is better to let your army serve as the main force, how about it?" ”
Hearing Gongsun Zhi say this, Tang Mu's heart secretly complained.
In fact, after getting Gongsun Zhi's invitation, he already had some guesses in his heart, after all, the Jin army under his command is too idle these days, and it sounds good to attack Licheng together, in fact, as an assistant army, the Jin army has no strength at all, and often when the Jin army presses up, it is when the troops are about to withdraw.
That's where he played a clever trick - why do he contribute when the city he captured was not his own?
Based on this idea, Tang Mu has always restrained his subordinates, trying not to sacrifice his soldiers in vain in order to help the Wei army capture Licheng.
But I didn't expect that in the end, it was still here that Gongsun Zhi went straight to the point and directly asked him to lead the Jin army as the main force to attack Licheng.
According to Tang Mu's knowledge, at present, Cangguo attaches great importance to Licheng, and there is already a steady stream of local troops rushing to support, this city will definitely become more and more difficult to attack, that is to say, let him Jin army attack Licheng tomorrow, he will inevitably suffer from the desperate resistance of the defenders of Licheng.
The Jin army that will attack the city tomorrow will only become a victim.
If it were to be replaced by other cities in Cangguo, Tang Mu might be forced to agree to the situation under the fence, and it would not hurt to sacrifice some soldiers, but it was a ceremonial city, with countless crossbows and various city defense equipment on the city wall, which could be called the life harvester of the siege soldiers!
You must know that before this, when he had not joined forces with the Wei army, he led the army to attack the city, and without even touching the city wall, he was killed by the defenders on the city tower.
Tang Mu is very self-aware, he knows very well that although the number of defenders in the city has decreased, the morale is getting stronger and stronger, and tomorrow he will not be able to bargain for the army when he enters the army.
Thinking of this, he showed a look of embarrassment, and said euphemistically: "General Gongsun, the strength of my Jin Kingdom is weak, the rear is tight, and the morale is very low, I am afraid that it is not enough to be the main force to attack Licheng, it is better to still cooperate with your army tomorrow and attack with the second echelon How ......"
Hearing this, Gongsun Zhi said with a smile: "General Tang Mu must not be humble, everyone knows that since the coalition army invaded Jin, although your country's vitality has been greatly damaged, the strength of the army is still not low, compared with our Wei army, it is even stronger, why should the general be humble?" ”
After that, Gongsun Zhi saw that Tang Mu's face was still hesitant, and wanted to open his mouth to refuse, so he asked with half-squinted eyes: "Or is it that General Tang Mu is actually not in the same mind as my Wei army, but just wants to get grain and grass supplies and take advantage of them in vain?" ”
Seeing that Gongsun Zhi's eyes were half-narrowed and his tone was serious, Tang Mu's heart was shocked.
In all fairness, if he had a choice, he would have liked to retreat with his army immediately, but the problem of grain and grass could never be solved, and if he could not suppress the Cang army and attract the Xuanwu Legion to help, he would never dare to take this risk
But unfortunately, the situation was pressing, and Tang Mu didn't dare to offend Gongsun Zhi at this time.
After all, in the Central Plains at the moment, his Jin army is indeed a parasitic fence, and if he is not tolerated by the Wei army, he can only lead the army to continue westward and defect to the Ruan State.
In this way, his Jin Kingdom completely lost the opportunity to send troops to Cangguo, even if the countries finally defeated Cangguo, he Jin Kingdom would not get any benefits.
As soon as he thought of this possibility, Tang Mu was very entangled in his heart, so he could only smile and settle the matter.
Seeing this, Gongsun Zhi immediately changed his smile again, and said with a smile: "General Tang Mu doesn't have to worry, since we are all going to attack Cangguo, we will be a whole after the meeting, and I will never deliberately harm the soldiers of your country...... Tomorrow, when your army attacks the city, I will order the Wei army to assist by the side, and when the time comes, the two sides will cooperate to take Licheng in one go!"
"Then ...... I'm tired of your army. ”
Tang Mu smiled bitterly in his heart, he didn't believe in the so-called strategy, if he really captured Licheng quickly, he would not disdain the support of the Wei army, and he would take the city at all costs, and get this credit, more or less be able to get something from the Wei State.
For the news of tomorrow's main attack on the city, the generals are still very surprised.
Originally, I thought that I was waiting for the Wei army to capture Licheng, and after gnawing this hard bone, the Xuanwu Army would come back to help, and my side could retreat and regain control of the rear.
But I didn't expect that the task of capturing Licheng fell on my head again.
It's like the Wei army was a slave owner with food, and the Jin army was a hungry commoner.
Slave owners used food to coerce civilians into slavery to work for their slave owners.
And the hateful thing is that even if they knew that Gongsun was uneasy and kind, they didn't dare to make a mistake, so they could only honestly obey orders.
"If we hadn't been greedy for merit, how would we have ended up in such a situation?"
Tang Mu sighed, helpless.
"But why were we able to attack the Cangguo so quickly? Is Cangguo deliberately releasing water? ”
"Since the Xuanwu Legion is in the north, why would it allow me and others to easily capture various passes?"
"Will there be any fraud in this?"
"Cangjun has always been good at using stratagems, will there be any tricks, are we ...... tricks?"
"No, this has captured dozens of cities, there is no need to ......"
"Alright, alright." Seeing that several generals under his command were speculating, Tang Mu was a little impatient, and said: "The top priority is to think about how to attack Licheng tomorrow, how many troops should be invested, how to attack, whether to make a show, or simply take down Licheng in one go?" ”
"Take down the city of rites and make a wedding dress for the Wei army?"
"The Wei army is hostile to our Jin army, in case we turn our face after capturing the city, our 300,000 army will be in danger......"
