Chapter 61: Two Lines of Defense

"Kill~"

Although the main generals on both sides reacted differently, but the battlefield was cruel after all, even if the morale was discharged, but the Yellow Turban Army after these simple exercises, after all, there was some progress, and there were constantly siege ladders on the wall, this time in order to be able to break through Suiyang as soon as possible, Liang Fa has put a lot of real elites into the battlefield to be responsible for the head.

In the past, most of these elites of the Taiping Sect were born as bandits, and they were strong enough to stretch out their hands, and they were also strong enough, coupled with well-equipped equipment, which caused great trouble to the officials and soldiers of Suiyang.

An elite of the Yellow Turban Army stepped on the city wall with a shield, and the shield in his hand fiercely separated the spear stabbed by an officer, jumped down, and the war knife in his hand flashed in the sun, flashing a cold cold, an officer and soldier were directly chopped off by him with a knife, and the two officers and soldiers next to him hurriedly raised their knives to remedy, two knives at the same time slashed at this person, one was cut on the shoulder, and the other was directly stabbed through the stomach.

The elite of the Yellow Turban Army was also brave, and seeing that he couldn't survive, he frantically threw the war knife in his hand directly, piercing the chest of the oncoming officer and soldier.

Although he was killed in battle, he also tore a gap, and at least three Yellow Turban soldiers rushed up after him, fighting with the officers and soldiers who rushed around, firmly blocking the small place with his body, and letting more robes rush up behind him. ”

On the city wall, the tower-like body of Dian Wei rushed over like a tank, and with his roar, the surrounding officials and soldiers subconsciously got out of the way, and many people only felt that the black shadow flashed in front of them, followed by a strong wind blowing, which made people's faces hurt.

"Puff~"

"Bang~"

Before the few Yellow Turban soldiers who had just gained a firm foothold had time to react, they were knocked out by a violent force, but Dian Wei was in a hurry, so he directly picked up the stone used to defend the city and threw it directly.

Dian Wei stepped forward like flying, carrying two iron halberds, and a yellow turban thief who had just emerged was split by Dian Wei's halberd, and then used the iron halberd to push out the siege ladder that was on top of the city wall, and then looked back at the stunned soldiers and said: "What do you see!" If you don't kill the enemy for me, do you want to die!? ”

Everyone has never seen such a murderous person, after beating a fierce spirit, but the morale has soared, such a brave man is on their side, how can they be afraid, and they let out a roar in unison.

Dian Wei naturally didn't understand why his morale was scolded by himself, but he was in no mood to pay attention to it at this time, he got Ye Zhao's order, wandered the city wall, and once he found that the enemy army was attacking, he immediately came to the rescue, as for the rest, he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

At this time, Ye Zhao did not continue to stay on the city wall to observe the war, although there was no result yet, but he had already deduced the general direction of this war in his heart, so he now needed to arrange his second step plan, maybe the Yellow Turban Army could not even break the city wall, but if everything was not considered a victory, it would be a defeat first, and if conditions permit, Ye Zhao would definitely leave enough for himself.

"My lord, will you shake the morale of the army when you leave the front line at this time?" After seeing that there was no one around, Qiu Chi expressed his worries, after all, although Ye Zhao was only a county commander before, but now he is the backbone of this city, and it is easy to shake the morale of the army when Ye Zhao leaves at this time.

"I have made it clear before, this is not a battle for the court, let alone a battle for me, where to go, they make their own decisions, if it is so easy to shake the morale of the army, I will consider breaking through, after all, in the final analysis, I am only Suiyang Ling, before Du Wei and Liang Guoxiang, there is a pronoun." Ye Zhao sneered, although he had been mentally prepared for the methods of the imperial court or the emperor, he was still a little unhappy when it came to the end.

"Then I'll wait ...... now"

"Go prepare the second line of defense." Ye Zhao said indifferently.

"Second line of defense?" Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao blankly: "Didn't the lord say ......?"

Didn't you say you were going to break through? How is there a second line of defense? The walls are not broken yet.

"If the army's heart is shaken, I will naturally break through, but this second line of defense is not that the wall will be broken, but the hearts of the people."

"People's hearts?" Qiu Chi was even more dazed.

"What if you are Liang Fa and can't break the city by storming?" Ye Zhao looked at Qiu Chi and patiently explained.

"Retreat or ......" Qiu Chi was halfway through speaking, and suddenly realized that if the city could not be broken by storming, then I am afraid that the next step would be to use conspiracy.

It's finally not stupid yet.

Ye Zhao nodded a little helplessly, if it was Qian Fei, I am afraid that he would be able to understand his intentions without saying it himself.

The Yellow Turban Army is weak as a whole, but since Liang Fa wants to attack Suiyang, he will definitely send the best soldiers in his hands to seize the first opportunity, otherwise, Liang Fa will not have any chance of winning, at the beginning, Ye Zhao has already stood in Liang Fa's position to calculate how to fight this battle.

Therefore, Ye Zhao sent Dian Wei, Guan Hai and all the people around him who could be sent out at the beginning, this first day must be the most difficult day, as long as this first day survives, the Yellow Turban Army's encouragement will be gone, and the loss of a large number of elites will not only make Liang Fa feel distressed, but also greatly reduce the offensive of the Yellow Turban Army the next day, and then, Liang Fa can think of the only way to start from the inside of Suiyang.

It's old-fashioned, but it's also a very difficult method to guard against.

"What is the lord going to do?" Qiu Chi looked at Ye Zhao, and he also felt the trickiness of this matter.

"In troubled times, you should use heavy codes! Send someone to send invitations to the principals of the provinces, and set up a banquet in the prime minister's house tonight, and the grace has passed! Ye Zhao's eyes flashed with a touch of coldness that he had never had before.

"Whoa!" A cold air surged up from his back, Qiu Chi had followed Ye Zhao for so long, it was the first time he felt this kind of chill from this lord, and after a lively start, he hurriedly agreed, did not dare to ask more, and left in a hurry.
