Gongsun Gong, as the supreme commander, took over the command of Xinchang City, and he tried to deploy the soldiers and horses of the battalions to prevent the situation of piling up, but this small city was too crowded after all, and it was not sorted out for a while. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

But Zhao Yun didn't wait for them to straighten out, the trebuchet array had already begun to rage! The stone bullets flying out of the city covered the sky and the sun, covering the attack in Xinchang City, Gongsun Gong heard the sound of whistling in the air, and hurriedly looked up, only to see the dense stones like a torrential rain, covering the Xinchang City, those chaotic soldiers could not avoid it, they were smashed by these stone bullets, the flesh and blood were blurred, some of the top of the head were hit, and the brains spewed out, it was disgusting to see, several soldiers who were talking turned into a puddle of mud in an instant, and they could no longer make any sound.

The battalion commanders shouted: "Hide! The team that was about to be reorganized was in chaos again in an instant, running, screaming, and chaotic, and the soldiers who fell to the ground could no longer get up, and their bodies were trampled by everyone, and there was no complete place.

Zhao Yun adopted the three-round continuous shooting method, each projection was one-third of the catapult, and when the third round of shooting was completed, the first round of the catapult had been loaded, and so on, over and over again.

In the eyes of the attacked side, it is a steady stream of projections, not to see the casualties, but this momentum that covers the sky is enough to make people frightened.

After an hour of projection, there was not a single intact house in the city, and the whole city was covered with broken stone bullets and corpses turned into flesh, and the people were also killed, and they were also miserably killed in their homes, and their houses were destroyed by stone bullets.

Gongsun Gong was shocked, those red and white things made him vomit out his stomach, and his body seemed to be hollowed out, how could he defend the city like this?

For the Xinchang defenders, this kind of attack was a nightmare, and some soldiers who had not experienced the battle were already frightened and hid under the base of the city walls.

The long-range "artillery fire" that lasted for an hour finally ended, and the smell of blood filled the entire city, with broken walls, broken arms and limbs everywhere, and Xinchang City, which was lively and extraordinary an hour ago, was like hell at this moment.

The wailing soldiers came out of the corner under the officer's order and regrouped, and Gongsun Gong arranged for his own guards to gather capable soldiers in each regiment and prepare to defend the city, but the shouts of killing under the city walls were already boiling.

When Zhao Yunjun was attacking from a distance, he sent elite infantry to take the opportunity to move to the city, and when the trebuchet attack stopped, he immediately attacked the city.

This style of play is completely the way of attacking the city of the army in later generations, first the platoon artillery saturation attack, and then the infantry attacking the city, Jiang Sheng is from the later generations after all, and he knows the power of this style of play, and it was first used by Zhao Yun in actual combat at this moment, and the effect is very obvious.

Gongsun Gong hastily gathered less than 20,000 soldiers and horses, organized to defend the city, and before the defenders could land on the city, the battle flag of Zhao Yunjun's army had been erected at the head of the city, and countless Xuanjia soldiers shouted and ran at the head of the city, and soon occupied half of the city wall, and Gongsun Gong's defense was broken before it was implemented.

Before the soldiers of the battalions who were still organizing and assembling in the city understood what was going on, they were killed by a round of crossbow arrows, and Gongsun Gong saw that there was no hope of defending the city, so he only led hundreds of horsemen to flee from the north gate and went straight to Xiangping.

Zhao Yunjun and some of the naval officers who landed flocked into the city to clean up the mess, and the defending officers and soldiers who had no time to escape became prisoners, in this case, where is the idea of resisting? At the beginning, Zhao Yun's soldiers and horses were a team of several hundred people to search for the defenders, and later dozens or dozen people could capture the entire battalion and the entire battalion of captured defenders.

In a day and a half, Xinchang City was completely controlled by Zhao Yun's army, and it was necessary to rest after the battle, so Zhao Yun ordered the whole army to be stationed in Xinchang City, sent sufficient soldiers to defend the city, and sent 5,000 Xuanjia cavalry to camp outside the city to monitor the enemy's movements and respond to the defense of the county.

The settled army began to organize rescues and set aside military ration tents to house the innocent people who had been victimized.

These people suddenly suffered a catastrophe and hated Zhao Yunjun to the core, but after seeing the behavior after the war, they improved, and later Zhao Yun sent soldiers to repair houses for the people, and by the way carried out pacification propaganda.

The people are very sorry for the death of the former guard general Liu Yi, but they can also understand that the battlefield is against the enemy, either you die or I die, and the troubled times are like this, which is beyond the control of manpower.

After Gongsun Gong returned to Xiangping, Gongsun Du was furious, but he didn't expect Jiang Sheng to send 200,000 troops to bluff as suspicious soldiers, and the real attacking force was only more than 50,000 people, but after hearing the description of Gongsun Gong and others, Gongsun Du couldn't help but be secretly frightened, and the stone-throwing attack that lasted for an hour was what kind of terrifying situation it was? Xiangping City is vast, and the walls are very high, can it withstand this kind of attack?

In fact, he was too worried, although Zhao Yunjun's trebuchet was terrifying, but after all, the service life was limited, after that hour of attack, half of it had been scrapped, and the remaining trebuchet was no longer a saturation attack for the big city of Xiangping.

Gongsun Du sent hundreds of scouts to investigate the military situation in the west and north, and found that Gao Shun, Bian Xi and other soldiers were engaged in some kind of juju competition, and their armaments were lax, and there was no sign of war at all.

"Father, Gao Shunjun is so decadent, why don't you sneak attack once, catch him off guard, and mention the morale of our army." Gongsun Kang proposed.

Gongsun Du shook his head, "Now that Xinchang and Changli have been lost, we should preserve our strength." Gao Shun has always been strict in governing the army, what you see is a superficial illusion, once we attack, we will definitely be counterattacked, and the gains outweigh the losses. ”

"Then we can't sit still in the lonely city of Xiangping!" Gongsun Gong was a little worried.

Gongsun Du looked at this second son who escaped death, and had mixed feelings in his heart, now there are strong enemies on three sides, only the east does not have Jiang Sheng's soldiers and horses, but the east is Goguryeo, and Goguryeo's 100,000 soldiers and horses are burning and looting, and they are fighting with Tian Yubu, if he goes to Goguryeo, maybe it is his Gongsun Du's chance to make a comeback, but this idea is too risky, Goguryeo is poor and bad, survival is a problem, if hundreds of thousands of troops pass, without war, it will soon fall apart.

"We still have to hold Liaoyang and recapture Xinchang!"

"Retake Xinchang? Father, how does this work? Gongsun Kang and Gongsun Gong exclaimed.

"How not?"

"The enemy army in Xinchang is extremely strong and unscrupulous, and it takes at least 100,000 soldiers and horses to attack Xinchang." Gongsun Gong said.

Gongsun Kang said: "Liaoyang faces the encirclement of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses of the enemy Gaoshun, Bian Xi, Zhenggu, Luyi and other departments, once the enemy launches an attack, it will be defeated, we also need to strengthen the defense of Liaoyang, Xiangping also has to defend with heavy troops, we have no soldiers and horses to attack Xinchang!" ”

"Brute force is definitely not good, we have to use tactics, we can't be able to fight the enemy, we can only outwit!" Gongsun Du wiped his beard and looked like he was already in his chest.

Zhang Ning knew the importance of intelligence, although all the ministries made the appearance of lax combat readiness, but secretly there were thousands of scout spies distributed in the land of Liaodong.

Gongsun Du's movements couldn't hide Zhang Ning's eyes at all, and when Gongsun Du deployed troops and prepared to recover Xinchang, Zhang Ning was also secretly arranged.
