Rotong returned to the military formation. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

finally didn't embarrass Tang Jun, and Li Shimin praised it greatly.

Next, Xiao Wenlong will no longer fight, so he can only attack the city, but when it comes to attacking the city, everyone is puzzled, can the city really be conquered when the forces of the two sides are roughly equal?

Xu Mao said fairly: "I'm worried, we don't have enough troops, and when our troops are almost exhausted, Xiao Wenlong will lead his troops to suddenly kill, but don't forget that he also has more than 100,000 troops, and if we really want to fight, we can't take advantage of half of it." ”

Cheng Yanjin also became serious and said: "I agree with what the stinky Taoist said, the Xiliang cavalry is powerful, and we should not underestimate it." ”

Luo Daodao: "Is it attacking or not attacking?" ”

In the end, Li Shimin made a decision and said: "Since you are here, of course you can't leave with a false shot, you must attack it, but you have to pay attention to strategy." ”

"Last night, I thought of a good siege method, maybe it would be useful to Xiao Wenlong, and he could lure him out and fight us in the wild."

"Oh? What's the method? ”

Xu Maogong asked.

Li Shimin didn't elaborate, but just said to Luo Tong: "General Luo, go and mobilize 20,000 weak brigades, let 20,000 weak brigades attack the city, and you will personally command it." ”

Yes? Lowly?

This makes everyone puzzled, now is the time to race against time, attacking the city with elite soldiers is the journey, and using weak brigades is not looking for death?

Although he felt that it was inappropriate in his heart, seeing Li Shimin's confident appearance, he didn't ask much, and said, "The last general will obey orders." ”

Xu Maogong has always been known for his wit, but at this time, he didn't understand Li Shimin's intentions.

"Xiao Yi, do you know the emperor's thoughts?" Cheng Yanjin asked in a low voice.

Luo Yi smiled: "The emperor's thoughts? How can I know. ”

"But since the emperor is so confident, I think it must be a good plan that is unexpected, let's just wait, maybe victory is just around the corner."

Even a cunning person like Luo Yi didn't know, and Cheng Yanjin also gave up the idea of asking others, and planned to wait and see what Li Shimin was doing.

In fact, Luo Yi didn't know, but he didn't want to say it, Li Shimin's approach reminded him of a classic battle in history, the side that attacked the city was to attack the city with a weak brigade first, but in the end it was victorious.

But Luo Yi is inconvenient to say, how can you guess the emperor's mind casually, even if you know, you have to pretend to be stupid, and show the emperor's wisdom, otherwise, you will not be far from bad luck.

Under the leadership of Luo Tong, 20,000 weak brigades were brought out.

The 20,000 people, almost all of whom were Wang Buchao's subordinates before, and the recruits after the incorporation had never experienced a major war or attacked the city.

Such an army, whether it is a siege or a field battle, is the life of cannon fodder.

"Beat the drums, siege the city!"

With Luo Tong's order, out of 20,000 people, 5,000 people split out, and under the leadership of their respective commanders, they pushed the general cannon (three), carried the ladder, and flew the bridge, and ran towards the wall of Black Rock City in the distance.

Don't look at the soldiers are not very good, but the siege equipment is strong, there are only three cannons, and there are a lot of spare stones, so you can attack all the time.

Roar, roar, roar...

The soldiers shouted as they attacked the walls.

The entire battlefield was completely boiling because of the siege war, the roar under the city shook the sky, and the city was also actively preparing for war, and the archers and pikemen were also frequently mobilized.

However, Xiao Wenlong, as a marshal, was not on the city tower, but returned to the city to treat his wounds, and the city tower was completely handed over to the brute.

Bang bang bang...

When the siege soldiers approached the city wall, all the ladders were set up on the edge of the wall piers, making a crackling sound, and the brute bull was also familiar with it, and immediately asked people to use the forks that had been prepared long ago to find out the ladders.

The brute bull was very strong, grabbed the fork with one hand, weighed it on the ladder, and easily forked a ladder and fell back.

The ladder overturned and fell to the ground with a bang, killing more than a dozen soldiers besieging the city below.

At the same time, there were also soldiers in other sections in groups of three or five, who lifted the ladder into the air, and the siege soldiers were killed and wounded countless times.

However, as many soldiers had already climbed the ladder, the weight of the ladder increased and it could no longer be lifted, so this idea was dispelled.

"Shoot the arrows!"

The bull shouted, and the archers who had been prepared in the city for a long time bent their bows and arrows and shot at the city.

The rain of arrows fell, and the soldiers besieging the city shot a man on his back and turned over, mourning all over the field.

After two times, the soldiers who were besieging the city were getting closer and closer, and they had climbed to the middle of the middle, and the bull personally lifted a boulder and threw it downward, his strength was very great, and the weight of the boulder was against the sky, and he threw it like this, which was even more terrifying.

When the boulder fell, it smashed all the dozen or so soldiers who climbed the ladder.

"Throw the boulder, throw the boulder."

In addition to the boulders, there are also huge trees in the city, which are much longer than the boulders, and once the bucket is thrown, it can not only smash the soldiers who climb the ladder, but also kill a large number of people who do not climb the ladder below.

The brute bull laughed, looking at the enemy soldiers who were smashed and bleeding and dying, they had a sense of revenge.

Black Rock City is much taller than Sleepy Yang City, four zhang high, even compared with Chang'an, it is not much less, not to mention the thickness, not less than three zhang, absolutely do not have to worry about being penetrated by the general's artillery.

It is worthy of being a major town in Xiliang, and it is by no means a meal Kobe.

Whoosh...

Suddenly, the general cannon under the city has been erected, nine boulders flew in the air, smashing heavily on the city tower, the strong shock force made everyone shake, and the bull was also shocked, but he was not afraid, although the general cannon is powerful, but after all, there are not many, the city can have tens of thousands of troops, even if it smashes a hundred at a time, it will be smashed hundreds of times, but how can it smash so many at a time, at most a dozen, and when you are lucky, you can have thirty or forty.

In the military formation, except for Li Shimin and Luo Yi, everyone was a little worried, attacking the city like this is simply looking for death, when will they be able to attack the city.

But what they don't know is that Li Shimin is a drunkard and does not mean to drink, it doesn't matter how many soldiers die, the important thing is that this battle will definitely be won, and Xiao Wenlong will definitely be defeated, and it will be worth it in exchange for Xiao Wenlong's 140,000 army at a small price.

Luo Yi had insight into Li Shimin's thoughts, but he remained silent, did not speak, and continued to wait and see.

Xiao Wenlong bandaged the wound and returned to the city tower, seeing that the brute bull was guarding the city tower to death, and not a single enemy soldier was put up, everyone appreciated.

"Brute, do a good job, just keep it like this, the victory must belong to us."

"Don't worry, Marshal."

Gradually, at noon, the battle was up to this time, the siege soldiers had been killed and wounded, and the five thousand siege soldiers sent out before were all defeated, and one of the ten steps back was saved.

But Li Shimin still did not let go, and asked Luo Tong to send a second team.

Immediately, the second team of 5,000 people launched another attack and rushed towards Black Rock City.

Cheng Yanjin and the others frowned even deeper, where is this siege, purely looking for death, even if you want to send a weak brigade to attack, you should also send elite archers to assist, but Li Shimin didn't do that. It's as if they were specially sent to kill someone.

From noon to evening, all the 5,000 men sent were dead, and the city was full of corpses, and 10,000 corpses were piled up into a hill, and the blood flowed like a river, as if it were purgatory on earth.

But Li Shimin had not yet ordered the withdrawal of the army, and in the evening, he was still giving an order, asking Luo Tong to continue to send 5,000 men to attack the city.

This time Luo Tong really couldn't bear it, he was a soldier lover, he never looked down on any soldier as lighter than himself, they were all fresh lives, how could he love swords like this.

Even if the emperor is angry, he has to admonish that if he continues like this, not only will he not be able to break the city, but he will suffer heavy damage.

"Your Majesty, it's dark today, so it's better to attack the city again."

"No, let the soldiers light their torches, attack for two more hours and then retreat."

Retreat after two hours?

That is to say, Li Shimin knew that he couldn't break through Black Rock City, but he still wanted to attack it, just as Cheng Biting Jin and the others thought, it was completely for the soldiers to die.

"Big brother, since the emperor has issued a holy decree, you just have to obey it." Afraid that Luo Tong would anger Li Shimin, Luo Yi mentioned it on the side.

Li Shimin said: "Luo Tong, continue." ”

"Yes."

After hesitating, Luo Tong sighed and continued to transfer troops.

These soldiers, as long as Luo Tong waved his big hand, they would rush forward with a roar, because they knew that Luo Tong was the god of war and a trustworthy general, and they all gave their lives to Luo Tong, but Luo Tong personally sent them to hell one by one.

Every time he thought of this, Luo Tong felt very uncomfortable.

On the city tower, Xiao Wenlong and Manniu have already killed red eyes, the pleasure of killing 10,000 enemies is really cool, from the beginning of the morning to now, if it weren't for the fact that there were still people rushing from here under the city, they couldn't believe it was true.

However, Xiao Wenlong was thoughtful, he seemed to feel that something was wrong, and wondered: "What the hell is this Li Shimin doing, just letting the soldiers die in vain, I can be regarded as having seen it, and they all say that he loves soldiers like sons, which shows that it is in vain." ”

"Haha... That's a good point. The brute bull said: "And that Luo Tong, who constantly transferred troops out and sent all the soldiers up to find death, it is actually difficult to live up to his reputation." ”

Both of them had the same thoughts, and in the blink of an eye, torches were lit under the city, and five thousand troops rushed to kill them.

"Hahaha... Well, well on! ”

Manniu said: "Marshal, don't worry, I will definitely guard the checkpoint to death, hmph, these five thousand people, within two hours, will all have to lie down and go back." ”

The meaning of the brute bull is to let Xiao Wenlong go back to rest, and he can completely control the overall situation in the battle.

But Xiao Wenlong was not at ease, thinking of the battle in the valley, he had palpitations, such an important battle as today, of course, it is better to command it in person.

Xiao Wenlong said: "It's okay, let's defend the city together." ”

Five thousand people ran under the city wall, and turned on the automatic death mode, one by one the soldiers fell, in the face of the fierce attack on the city, they did not even have the ability to counterattack, often as soon as they rushed up, they met the opponent's bow and arrow, or the boulder and giant tree that fell from the sky.

Luo Tong watched from behind, sighing constantly, he was also helpless, Li Shimin gave an order, he could only obey. This was what he wanted, even if it was a stratagem, and he would not joke with the lives of soldiers.

The battle continued, and in the blink of an eye, two hours later.

All the 5,000 soldiers sent out died, and not a single one remained.

This time, Li Shimin completely stopped and began to give orders, and the army retreated and retreated to the camp.

As soon as they returned to the camp, Cheng Yanjin and Xu Maogong found Li Shimin and expressed their doubts to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin's approach is too abnormal, in their impression, Li Shimin loves soldiers very much, and never lets soldiers die in vain, but today, he buried 15,000 soldiers, that is 15,000 lives!

They also have families, wives and children, but they don't want to...

The two of them were ready to seek justice for the fifteen thousand souls, although they didn't say so, but in their hearts, they meant this, they must ask clearly, and they couldn't let the soldiers die in vain.

found Li Shimin, Li Shimin only said one sentence: "The day after tomorrow at the latest, I will let Xiao Wenlong and his 140,000 troops be buried together, and the blood of these warriors will not be shed in vain!" ”
