Chapter 492: An Unexpected Enemy
Just when Zhang San thought that the war would maintain this rhythm and the rain was lighter, suddenly there was a commotion on the city wall, and Zhang San ignored the dissuasion of Xu Guanzhong and others, and immediately raised his weapon and rushed in the direction of the commotion.
Shan Tingqi and Wei Dingguo are also quite happy that they can attack the city wall, it can also be said that they swept away the grievances of the past half a month, and finally raised their eyebrows.
Both of them were born in the regimental training, although they mixed with the position of the deputy envoy of the state regimental training, but the deputy position is really quite worthless in the Great Song Dynasty, the Great Song Dynasty is known as the dynasty of redundant officials, and there are no three or five or even a dozen people in an official position, how can they be embarrassed to say that they are redundant officials.
Of course, there can't be several main positions at once, in that case, the Great Song Dynasty will already be chaotic, the main position is not good, but the deputy position is okay, so generally there will be a lot of deputy positions hanging behind a main position.
This is the case with the two deputy envoys of the regimental training, if there is no one above, they may be the life of a deputy envoy for the rest of their lives, which is intolerable for the two with great ambitions.
However, it is not without benefits to train group training, that is, group training will not be changed as often as the forbidden army, so the two of them have slowly trained their own teams, the Shenhuo General's Shenhuo Array, and the Holy Water General's Water Digging Army.
Both of them also relied on their talents, and gradually became a little famous in the forbidden army, this war with the Ryukyus is the product of the fame, the two were appreciated by Cai Jing and recommended to Tong Guan, the two were originally going to fight with the Ryukyu Army to have a good flying Huang Tengda, but after coming, they did see that the bandits on the opposite side were so tricky.
It's like Wei Dingguo, the Shenhuo general, after he came, he felt that he was not here to fight, but to learn, whether it was the Ryukyu Army's ballista firing fire oil bomb tactics, or the kind of fire oil ignition tactics that opened his eyes.
Originally, in his understanding, his train formation should be the unsurpassed advanced tactics of the Great Song Dynasty, but when he saw the power of the small ballistae that the Ryukyu Army set off with the troops and the large ballistas equipped on the warships, he felt that maybe he was taking the wrong path.
So these days, in the face of the Ryukyu Army, a team that has comprehensively surpassed itself with fire, Wei Dingguo has been studying and researching hard, hoping to find the opponent's weakness and give a fatal blow, but there has been no gain.
And the holy water general Shan Tingjue was lucky at the beginning, and he didn't come long to offer a strategy, but unfortunately the good times didn't last long, and Tong Guan happily implemented it after the result was useless, and it was a waste of time to spend money and effort to lose the army.
So Shan Tingqi quickly lost his position because of the unsuccessful strategy, and those who surrounded him with an adult who opened his mouth and closed his mouth and bowed disappeared in an instant, but fortunately, Shan Tingqi was usually a good person, so Wei Dingguo's friend did not leave him.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't bear the responsibility for this failure, it is estimated that Tong Guan would want to exempt him directly, but Shan Tingqi also knew that if he could not make meritorious contributions, it was estimated that he would not be able to escape the fate of settling accounts after the autumn.
In fact, the two also felt very aggrieved, and many ideas were rejected before they could be implemented, for example, Wei Dingguo wanted to get a ballista of the Ryukyu Army to study it, and asked Tong Guan to make one, but Tong Guan was not allowed.
In fact, it's not that Tong Guan doesn't want to, but there is no sample at all, that kind of weapon Ryukyu Army looks up and down very closely, and the Song Army has not taken advantage of it in previous wars, so it is not to mention captured.
There is also the two of them proposed to go to Yangzhou City to call a battle and then use heads-up to improve the morale of their army, hit the opponent, and if they are lucky, they may be able to rush into the city, and Yangzhou City will soon be broken.
Because the reputation of the two generals is too loud for training, people ignore that the two are still great generals, of course, this is the invincible level of Benzhou, and more specifically, they have crossed the threshold of first-class.
But the two felt that there should be no masters like themselves in a group of water robbers on the other side, as long as the two of them went out to provoke a few thieves, then the group of thieves would not be afraid, and it would be a credit to be able to catch a few enemy generals.
No matter how they feel good about themselves, Tong Guan will never agree to this kind of meaningless heads-up, because Tong Guan is not a general, so he hates this kind of general's heads-up the most, and it is not a group fight of three or five hundred people, and the enemy will be terrified if he is defeated.
For this kind of war of hundreds of thousands of people, the significance of this kind of heads-up is limited, and it is also a very shameful behavior if you lose, the two generals don't know the depth of their strength, and Tong Guan is not the kind of person who has not seen the world.
For the skills of these two, Tong Guan can adjust thirty or fifty casually, so Tong Guan doesn't think that there are no such masters in the thief army, because many such masters died on the city wall in Tong Guan's previous attacks.
Of course, Tong Guan would not reason with two generals of this level, and it was not good to directly say that people couldn't do it, so he had to be inaccurate, so the report of the two people was sent back.
The two of them were naturally unconvinced, so this time the siege two of them were determined to behave well, so they invited themselves to act as the vanguard and enter the first sequence of the siege, of course, they would not stop such an army, so the two of them entered the siege force sequence with their men.
The two of them led the team to follow the ladder army, and when the ladder hung on the city wall, the two immediately commanded their subordinates to attack upward, of course, although the two wanted to make meritorious contributions, they were not stupid, and they would definitely not rush up at the first time.
So after fighting for more than an hour, after seeing that the Song army had successfully ascended the city one after another, the two began to ascend the city when the time was ripe, and the place they chose was the city wall near the city gate, which was very close to Zhang San.
After the two plan to enter the city, they will either attack the city gate tower and capture the enemy defenders, or if the enemy general runs too fast, they will open the gate and win the first credit for breaking the city, and the matter will be the same as the two of them expected at the beginning.
Although the Ryukyu army in the city practiced the combined attack technique well, it was still helpless for the combined attack of two first-class masters, and after the two of them held the ladder for a few minutes, thirty or forty people had come up from the city.
The two felt that there were a lot of people, and they were ready to storm the castle tower with their men, and in order to create panic for the enemy army, they shouted that the castle was broken while attacking, and immediately the Ryukyu army, which did not know the truth, began to waver, but everyone saw that the defense was not panicked, and the shouts were only from one place, so they settled down again.
The chaos that Zhang San saw was issued by the two of them, and they dared to shout under Zhang San's nose that the city was broken to create chaos, how could Zhang San allow it, and immediately rushed in the direction of the two generals with his own weapons.
