Hangzhou, Qian Hongyu rubbed his temples and put down Yu An's fold, it was really a headache, there were a lot of soldiers in Zhoushan occupied by the Tang Army, although Yu An successfully landed on the shore, but the sailors wanted to capture the city, it was indeed not their strength. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Qian Hongjiao finished reading the excerpt, he noticed a detail, Yu An said in the excerpt that there were not many sailors of the Tang army, and according to his inference, the sailors of the Tang army were very likely to go south to attack Wenzhou and cooperate with Cha Wenhui to go north, otherwise it would not be possible to explain the disappearance of the Tang army's sailors.

Qian Hongjiao knew that the strength of the Tang Army's sailors was not weak, and Mingzhou got the news of the loss of Zhoushan, but he sent the sailors to investigate as soon as possible, but they were intercepted and killed by the Tang Army's sailors, which is enough to prove that the Tang Army's sailors are not as numerous, at least not as few as Yu An said.

Now that Yu An has successfully landed, the next step is to recover Zhoushan County, in this situation, even if he knows that the Tang army has a large number of warships in unknown places, peeping like a cheetah, Qian Hongjiao can only admit it, he discussed it with his henchmen, and made a decision, Mingzhou sent 10,000 foot soldiers, led by Zhang Yun to support Zhoushan, and the naval division, the Hangzhou naval division dispatched fifty warships to cooperate with Yu An to defend and prevent the Tang army naval division from appearing at any time.

At the same time, Qian Hongjiao wrote a letter and repeatedly warned Yu An that the Tang Army's sailors were already hiding in a corner, waiting to launch a fatal blow. He must be careful again and again, and must not fall for the tricks of the Tang Army.

The military order was conveyed, Mingzhou had a move first, 10,000 foot soldiers were transported to Zhoushan, Yu An took advantage of this time to hurry up the production of siege equipment, although Zhoushan is not tall, but there are no siege equipment, the difficulty is obviously greater, and the casualties of the soldiers will also increase.

Two days later, under the leadership of Zhao Chengtai, the Hangzhou sailors entered Zhoushan, and they simply repaired the water village, at least they could berth and land smoothly. The wooden stakes at the bottom of the water were also removed, the entire water village was unimpeded, and the naval warships were moored on the shore in rows, and even the Tang army guarding the city of Zhoushan could see Wu Yuejun's sailors standing on the head of the city.

"Wu Yue's army has rushed to Zhoushan, there are about more than 10,000 foot soldiers, and there are at least forty or fifty naval warships. According to the news obtained by the scouts in the past few days, Yang Lian was discussing the military situation with the lieutenant colonel.

Now there are only two brothers Zhang Wenji and Zhang Wenchao who assist Yang Lian in defending the city, Lin Renzhao, Zhang Wenyi, and Zhang Wenying are leading the water division, and there are not many generals who can give Yang Lian ideas.

Yang Lian's plan is still to stick to it, there is a lot of food in Zhoushan City, and there are enough elite soldiers in the city, Yang Lian has the confidence to guard, what he is worried about is that because Zhoushan is blocked, the news cannot reach Yang Lian's ears in time, at this time, what is the battle situation on the Shengsi Islands? He didn't know at all that the battle situation in the Shengsi Islands had a great impact on Zhoushan, and if the Shengsi Islands fell into the hands of Yang Lian, the war situation would have a different development.

After some discussion, everyone decided to defend first and see what action Wu Yuejun would take.

After a period of preparation, Wu Yuejun has built siege equipment, rushing cars, crashing cars and other things also have a certain number, the weather is sunny on this day, it is a good time to attack the city, Yu An sent the general to cooperate with Zhao Chengtai to lead more than 20 warships to blockade the entire Zhoushan, turning Zhoushan into an isolated island, he and Zhang Yun led 15,000 people, attacking Zhoushan County.

Yang Lian had already received the news, led the soldiers to the top of the city, and looked into the distance, only to see that outside the city, it was densely packed with Wu Yue soldiers and horses, and Wu Yue's army slowly pushed the siege equipment and rushed towards Zhoushan.

"Pass the order down, the three arms fight." Yang Lian said.

Zhang Wenji said: "Yang Jiedu, do you want to ask for help?" ”

"Don't worry, Wu Yuejun has a lot of fierce generals, all of them are veterans of the battlefield, I deliberately showed weakness, they must be able to see it. But even if it can be seen that Zhoushan has a special geographical location, the Wuyue people are desperate to recapture Zhoushan, even if they know that there is a murderous motive hidden in it, they have to attack the city. Yang Lian seemed very determined.

Zhang Wenchao nodded and said, "Although Wu Yue is powerful, there are thousands of people in the city who dare to fight, and it is not yet known who will kill the deer." ”

Yang Lian said: "Although there are many people in Wu Yue's army, the ratio is only three to one, and it is not so easy to capture Zhoushan. ”

As soon as the words fell, Wu Yuejun commander Yu An and Zhang Yun boarded the command platform, almost parallel to the place where Yang Lian was, although it was far away, but the eyes of both sides collided, and they seemed to feel each other's firmness, Yang Lian pursed his lips and gave the order to go down, the three armies actively prepared for war, and the people in the city were also organized, and more than 300 people were busy under the city, burning fire and boiling water.

The rumbling drum resounded again in this cloud-covered world, the drum beat like rain, rapid and intense, Wu Yuejun was almost ready, under the leadership of the capital, slowly advanced, in the formation, the car was covered with wet cowhide, and there were more than a dozen soldiers hidden in it, struggling to push the car.

Yang Lian stood at the head of the city, staring at the outside of the city, this battle will be more fierce than a few days ago, once it will be a success, who can have the last laugh?

In the thinking of the yang line, Wu Yuejun is getting closer and closer, the big battle is about to begin, Wu Yuejun is ready for everything, still the sword and shield soldiers are in front, the archers are in the back, and the chariot is in the later position. This time, Wu Yuejun had more ladders and more foot soldiers with rich experience in siege.

As the Wu Yue army attacked, after entering the firing range, the Tang army began to shoot arrows to fight back, this time the Tang army no longer hid clumsy, the arrow feathers were shot, dense like locusts, and pounced on the Wu Yue army. After Wu Yuejun raised his shield and blocked the arrow feathers, he continued to advance during the gap between the Tang army's attacks. Although there were also robes falling, on the whole, the advance of Wu Yuejun's army was quite smooth.

After the crossbowmen of the Wu Yue army entered the firing range, they also began to return fire, the Tang army used the cover of the female wall to shoot at the Wu Yue army, the casualties on both sides continued to increase, after some efforts, the Wu Yue army approached the moat, they quickly crossed the moat, and put the ladder on the city wall, the crossbowmen increased the speed of the shot, and shot back, interrupting the Tang army's offensive and covering the city of Paoze.

"Kill!" Yang Lian shouted loudly at the head of the city, and the long knife in his hand slashed out, cutting down a Wu Yuejun who tried to climb the city, Wu Yuebing rolled down like a big snowball, and several Wu Yuejun behind him were caught off guard, and they were also hit by him, fell to the ground, and suddenly screamed.

Wu Yuejun rushed up without fear of death, the two sides fought fiercely inside and outside the city wall, Wu Yue's morale was strong, and the Tang army was not bad, they mustered up their spirits and drove the Wu Yuejun soldiers off the city. In the distance, Yu An and Zhang Yun were one after the other, observing the situation, the resistance of the Tang army was very tenacious, and they could not attack the city for a while.

Zhang Yun was on the side and said: "General Yu, the resistance of the Tang army is very tenacious, in my opinion, we must continue to send troops and keep attacking, so that the Tang army has no chance to breathe." ”

Yu An shook his head and said, "No hurry." "At this time, the fight has just started, and Tang Jun still has enough physical strength, so he will observe and observe before making a decision.

The fighting is still continuing, Yang Lian began to lead the soldiers, then retreated to the side to command, the Tang army relied on the strong city, methodically defended, from the current situation, the defense is not a big problem, after a fierce battle of a meal, Wu Yuejun's rush car finally pushed over, because the moat of Zhoushan is relatively wide, Wu Yuejun's rush car can not directly attack the city gate, so Wu Yuejun desperately attacked near the city gate, trying to cut down the drawbridge, so that the car can attack the city gate.

As the sun reached midway and gradually moved westward, the commanders of both armies made certain adjustments, and after the resting soldiers had eaten lunch, they returned to eat in place of the besieging soldiers. Taking advantage of the gap between the attacks of Wu Yue's army, Yang Lian instructed Zhang Wenji to light the bonfire in the city, there was a lot of moist firewood on the bonfire, and there were many leaves, the fire burned, and the smoke was everywhere, twisting and rising into the sky, like a black dragon, ready to swallow the sun at any time.

"Huh? Tang Jun signaled? When he was discussing things with Zhang Yun on the command platform, he inadvertently raised his head, and Yu An said with some surprise.

Zhang Yun also stood up, squinted his eyes and looked at the smoke carefully, and snapped his fingers: "It seems that Tang Jun can't help it." ”

"With General Zhao here, it is difficult for the Tang army to get close, they have come all the way, and they must have at least twice as many warships to be able to defeat General Zhao." Yu An said.

Zhang Yun smiled disdainfully and said, "Although there are many sailors in the Tang Army, it doesn't seem to be useful. The reason why Zhang Yun said this is because after Yu An led the main force of the Zhoushan Water Division to the south, the Tang army launched a wave of attacks, and they occupied a numerical advantage, but they still did not break through Shao Keqian's defense, which means that the combat effectiveness of the Tang Army's water division is not strong, and he doesn't take it to heart at all.

Zhang Yun disdained and looked down on Tang Jun, but Yu An didn't dare, he knew that it was Yang Lian who was guarding Zhoushan, this person was very cunning, Bao Xiurang was folded in his hand, Wu Yueguo lost Fuzhou, it seemed inadvertent, and there was nothing remarkable, but Yu An knew the importance of Fuzhou very well, and he knew the role of Yang Lian in that battle. For such an opponent, Yu An did not dare to underestimate it.

However, what Zhang Yun said made sense, Zhao Chengtai led the battleships that rushed to support, there were 40 battleships alone and 40 battleships, plus the part of the Zhoushan Water Division, there were more than 70 battleships, which was enough to defend the main island of Zhoushan, and it was difficult for the Tang army to get close.

Therefore, Yu An felt that the most important thing now was to capture Zhoushan, and he also wanted to see where the sailors of the Tang Army were hiding? Yu An guessed that if he was Yang Lian, he would definitely let the sailor attack at the right time, catering to him inside and out, and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.

Yang Lian has his tricks, but in the face of absolute strength, Yu An is still very confident that Wu Yuejun will definitely be able to defeat the Tang army, and it is only a matter of time for him.

Yu An immediately ordered to storm the city of Zhoushan while sending someone to remind Zhao Chengtai that the Tang Army's naval division was likely to attack.

Outside Zhoushan Island, Zhao Chengtai was pacing on the deck, the sun was getting more and more poisonous, but he didn't care. With dark skin, he had already received the news from Yu An's faction, Zhao Chengtai was a little unimpressed, although he could see the smoke lit in Zhoushan County, how could Tang Jun see it?

Zhoushan is on the seaside, the sea breeze is very strong, the smoke has just risen a few zhang, and it will soon be blown away, Zhao Chengtai sent a patrol warship, only five miles away from the main island, and there is no smoke to see, and the range of his patrol is six miles, and there is no sailor of the Tang Army at all, which means that the smoke in Zhoushan City is not a signal, it is more likely that the Tang Army is playing tricks.

Although he thought so in his heart, Zhao Chengtai was not careless, and the patrolling speedboat was still shuttling on the sea, sending the news back at any time.

Zhoushan City is still fighting fiercely, after unremitting efforts, Wu Yuejun finally cut the rope of the suspension bridge at the city gate, the suspension bridge fell heavily to the ground, Wu Yuejun was suddenly excited, rushed to the car and immediately acted, rushing towards the city gate.

Yang Lian is not worried, the width of the suspension bridge is limited, how powerful can Wu Yuejun's rushing car be? He called a few soldiers without hurrying, and when the rushing car rushed to the bottom of the city gate, the soldiers threw out the iron hook, hooked the rushing car, and pulled it suddenly, and the rushing car was lifted up, revealing the Wu Yue soldiers under the rushing car.

"Shoot!" Yang Lian waved his hand quickly, and the crossbowman quickly shot out arrow feathers, and the soldiers of Wu Yueguo couldn't dodge, and suddenly turned into hedgehogs.

Yu An saw this scene from a distance, and couldn't help but shake his head, it was useless to rush the car, just relying on the ladder to attack the city, this casualty was a bit big. If you want to attack the city wall, I am afraid that it will not be possible without three or four days. Sure enough, on this day's attack, Wu Yuejun never climbed to the top of the city, and two or three vehicles were smashed when they were sent to rush the car, and the Wu Yue soldiers who pushed the car became a target and were shot alive.

At dusk, the sky gradually darkened again, attacking the city at night, not the director of Wu Yuejun, Yu An chose to retreat, he left the soldiers to move the corpse of the robe, and quickly returned to the station.

"Yang Jiedu, where are they General Lin?" Zhang Wenji was a little puzzled, the Tang Army also had a naval division, why did he cooperate with the attack on Zhoushan at this time?

Yang Lian narrowed his eyes, looked at the bloody waning moon in the sky, shook his head, and said: "Don't worry, now that the war has just started, the morale of the Wu Yue army is high, and the sailors must also be on guard, there are many of them, and our army is not too sure." ”

Zhang Wenji pursed his lips, today's battle Tang army lost more than 300 people, and the number of slightly injured people was close to 500, if it continued at this rate, the Tang army was very likely to be consumed alive by Wu Yuejun. In fact, there is not much food in Zhoushan, which is only enough to support two months.

In Yang Lian's opinion, two months is enough, and the only thing he regrets is that he has to use his descendants to fight, but it is worth it.

At the old site of the water village, Yu An stood on the edge of the dock, not asleep, Zhao Chengtai and Zhang Yun were by his side, pacing and talking.

It is not easy to capture Zhoushan, Yu An's purpose is to lead the Tang Army's hidden sailors to dispatch, once the Tang Army's sailors are completely annihilated, this Tang Army occupying Zhoushan will become a lone army in the real sense, they can only be trapped on the island, there is nowhere to go, once the food is exhausted, the military will inevitably mutiny.

He attacked desperately, not necessarily to take Zhoushan, but to lure the snake out of the hole, so Yu An told Zhao Chengtai a thousand times, telling him to be vigilant against the Tang army's sailors, if the enemy attacked, the Tang army's sailors would be annihilated in one fell swoop, and the idea of Zhoushan defenders would be eliminated.
