The thirty-fifth episode of Li Yaoshi led the army to attack the city

"Bang-" "Bang-" "Bang-"......

The cane hit Shi Jin's ass again and again, and it was in front of many soldiers. Shi Jin had a sense of shame in his heart, but he brought this matter on himself, if it wasn't for Liu Ye's intercession, he would have been in a different place by now. But now that he's like this, it's better to kill him! So even though Shi Jin was sweating in pain, he still gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.

The onlookers were also frightened, Zhang Yijun rarely had a criminal law for beating people, and only those very serious mistakes would be put on the cane. Other princes' subordinates are different, they put on the military staff at every turn, and kill their heads at every turn to boost the army's prestige.

Therefore, many other troops have joined the soldiers under Zhang Yi's command, and they all feel that this place is very good and more dignified. Now they have also seen Shi Jin being beaten, you must know that Shi Jin is a general, and he has made great achievements, he will be spanked when he says he is spanked, and he will be expelled from the army when he says he will be expelled from the army.

At this time, the soldiers saw the strictness of Zhang Yi's military law, and he was neither severely punished nor lightly sentenced. It shows that Zhang Yi enforces the law impartially and has great benevolence. Such a lord can certainly serve the people, and the soldiers are certainly willing to serve.

In this troubled era, the princes who can come out are not too lenient, such as the Yuan brothers, Liu Biao, Liu Zhang and others; Either it is too strict, such as Cao Cao, Sun Ce and others, and only Zhang Yi's family can really be fair.

Soon, Shi Jin's 100 military staff were finished, and Wei Wentong asked Shi Jin to be sent on the ship, sent back to Misukou, and then sent back to Shu County, and informed the whole army of Shi Jin's affairs and warned the generals.

Li Jing rushed to the outside of Chungu County and joined Li Bao. Once again, the army of 10,000 expanded the camp, cut down trees, and made turrets (wells).

Then, Li Jing ordered Lei Xu to find a digging ground, and then dig a ditch from the depression, ready to divert the water from the moat to the depression. The excavated soil was handed over to Li Bao, and then Li Bao led people to bulldoze the earth under the ancient city of Chun under the cover of the building. Find a moat to fill it in, and then pile up dirt directly under the city.

The surroundings of Chungu City were very wet because they had been blistered, and they were not suitable for the attack of rushing and crashing at all, so Li Jing could only choose this way of attacking! Moreover, he himself led people to dig tunnels, and piled up all the excavated earth under the city.

Tai Shi Ci led his troops to constantly interfere with Li Bao's mound, but because there were many soldiers outside the city, he did not dare to go out of the city, for fear of falling into the enemy's strategy outside the city. You can only shoot arrows at the top of the city, outside the city! Of course, not all the troops will shoot arrows, but a number of marksmen will be selected to avoid wasting arrows, and there are not too many arrows in the city. Moreover, the towers outside the city are also shooting arrows into the city, and too many soldiers will only increase casualties!

These siege machines are not simple for bandits, but particularly exquisite, the defensive ability is no worse than the city walls, and there are curtains hanging on them, which can not only fire arrows, but also prevent fire! As long as the rocket is fired, the burning curtain will be thrown down, and it will not affect the tower itself at all.

The arrows in the city are sparsely shot down, and the hit rate is quite high. However, more of them were shot at the soldiers' earthen baskets, and the siege soldiers' earthen baskets were very large, and they were placed in front to cover their bodies when they carried the soil, and they were placed behind them to cover their bodies when they went back. In this way, most of the body is covered.

Li Jing didn't ask for much time to finish the mound, so Li Bao naturally wouldn't let his soldiers take risks.

After a few days, the water from the moat was drained, the mound was piled up outside the walls, and the tunnels were dug under the walls, and everything went well.

Cheng Pu walked up to the city with an injury and said to Tai Shici: "Ziyi, a tunnel is being dug outside the city!" ”

"Authentically?" Tai Shici's face changed, the last time he was in Nanchang, he suffered an authentic loss. The other party's tunnel was too complicated to defend against at all, and Sun Ben gave his life because of this.

"What's wrong?" Cheng Pu saw that Tai Shici's face was different, and couldn't help asking.

Tai Shici told Cheng Pu about the matter of Nanchang, and Cheng Pu also gasped, he didn't expect it to be like this.

To be honest, Sun Ben's defense in Nanchang was actually in place, and there was absolutely no problem in dealing with the tunnel warfare in this era.

The problem is that there is such an outlier as Zhang Yi. He directly took the idea of tunnel warfare during the anti-Japanese period, dug the tunnels in all directions, and there were measures for waterproof attack and smoke attack, and he thought about the response in the city, and made countermeasures.

If this is the case, it will be strange if Nanchang cannot be captured.

Although defending the city is the dominant side, there must be disadvantages if there is an advantage. The disadvantage of defending the city is passivity, and it can only be resolved after the besieging side has made a move. Following this line of thought, it is relatively easy to reverse and dissolve.

"What then?" Cheng Pu asked, he was injured, he couldn't exert his full strength at all, and his heart was a little weak.

Tai Shi Ci thought about it and couldn't help laughing: "It should be fine!" It has been many days since we sent a letter to the lord, and I believe that the lord's reinforcements have almost arrived. ”

When Cheng Pu heard this, he nodded and said, "It's really time to arrive." I just don't know who will lead the troops to support this time. ”

At this time, a hundred miles away, an army of more than 4,000 people was marching towards Spring Valley City.

"General Xu, let's speed up!" Han Dang came to the side of a young general and said.

"Can't rush!" That General Xu was Sun Quan's cousin Xu Kun. After Sun Quan received the military information, he immediately asked Xu Kun to go out of the mountain again, and Han Dang, with his strategist Chen Duan, came to support Chungu.

Xu Kun introduced it before, and everyone is familiar with Han Dang, this Chen Duan wants to introduce it. Chen Duanzizheng, a native of Guangling, was one of Sun Ce's four masterminds.

In "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", it doesn't mean that when Sun Ce pacified Jiangdong, he recruited Zhang Zhao and Zhang Hong, known as Erzhang.

But in fact, there are four people, plus Chen Duan and Qin Song. These two men did not write a biography in the history books because they both had short lifespans. Chen Duan died less than two years after Sun Ce's death, while Qin Song died shortly after the Battle of Chibi.

And now Chen Duan is not dead, but his health is a little poor. But the military situation was urgent, and Sun Quan could only let him accompany the army to give advice.

"Although it is said that the soldiers are fast, but the general who is interested in a hundred miles is a general, and it will be bad if he is too anxious." Chen Duan said: "General Cheng and Taishi Ziyi have already built the city wall in Spring Valley, and Zhang Yi wants to break through Spring Valley, which is by no means a month's work. ”

After Han Dang heard it, he also felt that it made sense, this was a bad feeling that he always had.

Two miles away on the hillside, a scout saw their march clearly, and galloped away, returning to report.
