Chapter 393: Defending the City
Just as Meng Hai was stirring up trouble in the Vertical and Horizontal Mountains, Shangjun County was also facing the biggest risk ever. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info≧ Yuwentai asked to bring people into the county seat to find Hu Min under the pretext that several Hu Min had disappeared in Shangjun County.
When Su Yi heard this, he immediately sneered, remembering that Yuwentai's practice was similar to the national practice of a certain country with the banner of sanitary napkins in later generations, of course Su Yi would not let Hu people enter Shangjun County, and Yuwentai also happened to find an excuse to bring people to surround Shangjun County.
Hu Ren is not good at attacking tough battles, but Yu Wentai is obviously on guard, and he not only has Hu Qi under his command, but also many Han'er who work for him. Most of these people are powerful forces in Shangrao County, and some of the squires and Haoqiang who are dissatisfied with Yuwentai's occupation of Shangrao County have long been eradicated by him, and the rest are only those who are the only ones.
For Yuwentai, the siege war will naturally not send the warriors under his command to do it, and those Han people who have taken refuge under him are just used as cannon fodder. Of course, Yuwentai didn't exactly want to use them as cannon fodder, this time besieging Shangjun County, Yuwentai also let people bring a large number of siege weapons, including cloud ladders.
However, those Han people who took refuge under Yu Wentai had no backbone, and it was obviously impossible to let them join the ants to attack the city, and Yu Wentai also knew what kind of virtue those Han people were, and he didn't expect them to enter Shangjun County at all.
Yu Wentai is confident that as long as it is a field battle, even if it is the Yingyang Army under the command of Gongsun Yiqing, he is sure that he can win, as long as the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County go out of the city to face the battle, he can wipe out the officers and soldiers of Shangjun County outside the city.
And if you want to lure the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County out of the city, the best way to send these cannon fodder to attack the city, once the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County feel that the troops attacking the city outside the city are vulnerable, most of them will go out of the city to catch people's heads, at this time, Yuwentai's Hu cavalry suddenly killed, and he will definitely be able to kill the other party by surprise.
Facts have proved that Yuwentai is still too naïve, Su Yi has no intention of sending troops out of the city at all, some military forts outside Shangjun County are closed, even if the cannon fodder for attacking the city is so useless, they will never go out of the city to fight to the death with the other party.
After Yuwentai sent people to besiege the city, he first pretended to send people to the city to shout, asking the magistrate of Shangjun to come forward, open the city gate and let his people go in to find Hu Min. After Su Yi heard this, he scoffed at this, and he sent someone to the city to shout at Yuwentai.
"Yuwen Xiao'er, our adults asked me to bring you a message, and you are only worthy of shouting in the air under the city, and if you have the ability, you will enter the city."
Yuwentai frowned, a little unimpressed by this kind of agitation, but the next shouting at the head of Shangjun County made him thunderous, it turned out that Su Yi climbed up to the top of the city, and when he saw Si Swenwen scolded by the soldiers of Shangjun County, he immediately kicked him away, and let the thieves of Peach Blossom Village spray on the city wall.
These bandits behave vulgarly on weekdays, and the swear words are goods that come out of their mouths, these people have scolded Yuwentai's ancestors for eighteen generations over and over again, and the scolding is full of tricks, this is not counting, in order to completely anger Yuwentai, Su Yi even asked some merchants in the city who can speak Hu to also go to the city, and repeat the words of the thieves insulting Yu Wentai loudly in Hu language.
In this way, not only Yuwentai's qi and blood surged, but also the Hu cavalry under his command roared angrily, Yuwentai endured his anger, and originally wanted to lure the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County out of the city, but at this time, seeing that the other party was so shameless, his heart suddenly became angry, and he didn't hold back for a while, so he sent his elite Hu people's scimitars to go up to the ant-attached siege city.
Blind siege of the city, can play a very little role, most of the soldiers and horses in the county are composed of bandits in the peach blossom village, they have experienced countless vicious battles in the vertical and horizontal mountains on weekdays, and have also had the experience of defending the cottage, at this time to fight the city defense war is also decent.
As for the recruits recruited by Shangjun County, most of them hid behind the fortifications, and on the battlefield, they did not play much role, to put it bluntly, they just hid behind the fortifications, occasionally shooting an arrow or two, rubbing their experience, and gaining a long insight. After they have experienced a few more battles, they will gradually know how to protect themselves on the battlefield, how to judge where the enemy will rush next, when to defend the city, when to shoot arrows, and when to smash the rolling logs and rocks is the best opportunity.
At the same time, Yu Wentai also began to mobilize some Hu cavalry, constantly wandering around Shangjun County, he saw that the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County had never gone out of the city for a decisive battle, and suddenly thought of a frenzied way, that is, to attack some villages outside the city.
However, in such a chaotic situation in Youzhou, the villages that can still be based in Youzhou are basically the scale of Wangjiazhuang, although their families and guards are not as good as the regular army in the city, but they are not without a trace of resistance.
Yuwentai wanted to use the slaughter of the people to force the soldiers and horses of Shangjun County to go out of the city for a decisive battle, so that the cavalry under his command could defeat the officers and soldiers of Shangjun County, but his calculation was obviously in vain, not to mention whether Su Yi would send troops out of the city to rescue those villages, with the current strength of those villages, it was not easy for the cavalry under Yuwentai's command to easily kill and slaughter.
The Hu people of Shangrao County suffered big losses in two villages one after another, one of which was Wangjiazhuang.
Wangjiazhuang, which has been low-key, has shown their amazing strength in this battle, Wangjiazhuang's private army is equipped with a large number of sophisticated weapons and armor, and they even have hunting bows and Hu bows.
Shangjun County failed to fight down, and a few Hu villages couldn't take it, these Hu people felt that they had been insulted, and Yuwentai also felt that his face was a little unbearable, so the angry Yuwentai played a trick.
He sent the elite of the Hu people to sweep those people's villages, the original contradiction between the Han and Hu people in Shangjun County has reached the point of irreconcilability, Yuwentai did this, naturally angered many powerful forces in Shangjun County, they even wanted to cooperate with the officers and soldiers, out of the village to meet the Hu people in Shangrao County.
However, Shangjun County has not been able to make any moves for a long time, and these powerful forces outside the city can only rely on fortifications to constantly wear down the strength of the Hu people. The scales of the battlefield began to tilt, and the Hu people fought in all directions, and their forces were scattered.
Su Yi watched this scene coldly at the head of the city, he was not in a hurry to let his subordinates go out of the city to fight, he was waiting for an appropriate time, ready to give the Hu people in Shangrao County a fatal blow.
Although Yuwentai's soldiers and horses were scattered, the bravest cavalry under his command had been hovering around Shangjun County, waiting for the opportunity. (To be continued.) )8
