Chapter 051: Can't Attack for a Long Time

——

The generals who command the troops to fight know that siege warfare is the lowest strategy of the soldiers, and they will never easily fight siege warfare unless they have to, because the cost of casualties is too great, and the losses of both the attacking and defending sides are often disproportionate.

Let's say that the battle of Yiyang City, it has been three months in a moment, the three Jin coalition forces have been fighting for three months, and three months have launched a continuous attack on the Yiyang defender Wang Yu's department, but the Qin army stubbornly defended the city, and Wei Yi's 300,000 troops were helpless against Wang Yu's 30,000 Qin soldiers.

The fortification of Yiyang City is rare in the world, and it is a veritable city that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Even if Gan Mao pulled out Yiyang back then, its defenders were remnants of Han soldiers, but it still made the Qin army suffer a lot, and it took three years to gnaw this hard bone. How can today's Yiyang defenders be compared with the Korean army of the past?

At the foot of Yiyang City.

The siege battle continued, the city tower was already full of corpses, the blood all over the ground stained the whole earth, in front of the Chinese army of the Sanjin Coalition Army, Wei Yi on the handsome car stared at the battlefield without saying a word.

Dark clouds hissed across the sky and pierced the thunder and lightning, and the blood-red smell permeated the ruins of the ruins that had been dead for a moment and then noisy. The screams and swords that had just dissipated bloomed in the wind again, and the piled up of bones and remains was hideous and terrifying, and the thick aura was almost suffocating.

The two sides of the war are particularly tragic, the Yiyang defenders of Wang Yi's department have lost half of them, and the losses of the Korean army of the violent kite are described as heavy, 100,000 Han soldiers are the last family of South Korea, in the three months of attacking Yiyang City, the number of casualties has exceeded 40,000, of which more than 10,000 people are seriously wounded, either disabled or missing arms and legs, nearly 20,000 people died in battle.

At this moment, the Han general Storm Kite wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and he brandished a halberd in one hand to lead the Han army troops besieging the city to prepare to continue the attack on Yiyang.

Just as the Storm Kite was about to launch an offensive, on the handsome car of the coalition army, Wei Yi suddenly said: "Order, immediately Mingjin to withdraw the troops." ”

The commander gave an order, the horn sounded, and the violent kite who heard the drum and horn of the troops and the red-eyed Han soldiers were stunned, but it was the Qin soldiers in Yiyang City who were in high spirits and shouted with joy when they heard the trumpet of the enemy's formation of gold and retreat.

On the top of the city tower, Wang Di, whose face was covered with dirt, saw that the Han pawn under the city retreated like a tide at the moment when the horn sounded, and his heart was immediately ecstatic.

once again repelled the ferocious attack of the Three Jins, which made Wang Yi feel relieved, and he could finally breathe a sigh of relief for the time being.

One blow of strength, then decline, three and exhaustion.

As soon as the horn of the troops sounded, the attacking Korean soldiers and soldiers suddenly lost their fighting spirit, and some Koreans could not take revenge because their brothers died on the battlefield, and they were unwilling but helpless to withdraw from the battlefield; Some people were secretly overjoyed when they heard that Mingjin had withdrawn their troops, and secretly screamed that they had finally escaped and that their lives were not in danger for the time being.

In the eyes of the soldiers, the siege battle was not much different from sending them to death, and whether they survived or not was all up to fate.

The violent kite took off his helmet and smashed it on the ground, and then angrily ran towards the handsome car of the Chinese army and came to Wei Yi: "Why did the general suddenly withdraw his troops for no reason?" ”

"I have my own decision, the general does not need to say much, and I will deal with the repair of the army." Wei Yi was unmoved and said calmly.

"I'm not convinced!" The violent kite said angrily: "The battle of Yiyang for three consecutive months was for my Han soldiers to throw their heads and spill blood in front of the battle, 30,000 Koreans died at the foot of the old capital tower, more than 10,000 people were disabled, seeing that Wang Di's defenders were about to be unable to support it, Yiyang City was in sight, and the general was indeed Mingjin to collect his troops, what did he want?" ”

As soon as the words fell, a patriotic general suddenly shouted: "Storm kite! How dare you question the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces? If you question the general, you are questioning King Wei, King Zhao, and King Han! ”

"The last general will not dare!" Storm Kite still didn't dare to take the hat, but everyone present could see that he was still not convinced. After a while, he continued: "In the humble opinion of the last general, if the coalition forces had joined forces to storm the enemy city day and night instead of the Han army's decent attack, this Yiyang City would have been broken by our army long ago. ”

"The general's words are very reasonable, if they work together to storm Yiyang City day and night, this city will be broken within a month, even if it is defended by the Qin army." Wei Yi spoke, and as soon as these words came out, the storm kite looked at him in a daze, only to see Wei Yi calmly looking straight at him, first affirming and then changing the conversation, and then said: "But the general has thought about it, what is the purpose of my three Jin and Qin expeditions?" Is it just to break Yiyang City? ”

"This ......" The storm kite obviously couldn't see through it, so he arched his hand and said: "Please make it clear to the general!" ”

"Good! Ben Shuai will tell you! Wei Yi said and looked around at Le Yi and Zhao Hao: "By the way, I will also tell you." ”

"The battle of the Three Jin Dynasty and the longitudinal attack on Qin is intended to weaken Qin or even destroy Qin, which is the fundamental purpose. In order to achieve the goal, the commander will not care about the gains and losses of a soldier or a soldier, nor will he care about the gains and losses of a city and a pool. Wei Yi stared at everyone and muttered, and suddenly turned around and pulled out the horizontal knife hanging on the side of his waist and pointed at Yiyang City: "Ben Shuai did not do his best to storm Yiyang, his intention was to test the combat strength and endurance of the Qin army, and it was also to prevent the main force of the Qin army from taking the opportunity to bite back. ”

Speaking of this, Wei Yi suddenly set his eyes on the Storm Kite, and continued: "If it is really according to the strategy of General Storm Kite, my Sanjin coalition army will take turns to storm Yiyang day and night, and it will inevitably be for Wang Ji's 30,000 defenders to exhaust my 300,000 troops of the Three Jin Dynasty, at this time, the main force of the Qin army has not yet attacked, once while our army is tired, if the main force of Qin Hangu Pass, Huayang Jun's department, turns from passive defense to active attack, and takes advantage of the situation to fight a decisive battle with the tired soldiers of our army, what does the general think will be the result?" ”

"This ...... I ......" The storm kite was completely stunned by this question, the distance between Yiyang City and Hangu Pass was less than a hundred miles, and Qin Huayangjun Xinrong, who was guarding Hangu Pass, could lead the army to Yiyang the next day.

At that time, one side will be the main force of the Qin army that has been recuperating for a long time, and the other side will be the three Jin coalition forces that have become tired soldiers in order to attack Yiyang City, and the three Jin will be defeated. If the Qin army is a rabble, it is naturally no threat, but how can the tiger and wolf Qin army be a rabble?

"The last general is guilty, and he shouldn't question the general's strategy." When the storm kite learned of the key point, he was immediately angry, bowed his head and confessed his mistake.

The generals present also finally understood that Wei Yi did not concentrate superior forces to capture Yiyang City, but instead sent Han Shu's family to attack like sending him to death, which was originally to prevent the Qin army from taking the opportunity to counterattack, Le Yi, Zhao Hao and others also understood that Wei Yi's move was to preserve the overall combat effectiveness of the coalition army and not be dragged down by the small obstacle of Yiyang.

No matter how difficult Yiyang City is, it is just an appetizer, and naturally it is impossible to invest too much living force here, and the real battle between Sanjin and Qin still depends on the battle of Hangu Pass.

As Wei Yi said in the foreword, this time he will not care about the gains and losses of one city, one pool, one soldier and one soldier, but this kind of almost ruthless words made Le Yi, Zhao Hao and others deeply agree, as a commander, what they see is always the overall interests, and a qualified commander must be so ruthless, which is the fundamental difference between a handsome talent and a general.
