The siege of the city has always been the most tragic. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

If two armies fought on the plains, most of the dead were killed by arrows, swords and spears, or horses' hooves.

But in siege warfare, death is full of tricks.

In addition to the above-mentioned deaths, there are also those who are stoned to death, burned by fire oil, fall from the city wall, and even drown in the moat...... It's not a water army, and there are a lot of people who don't know how to water.

Soldiers flocked to the walls like locusts and ants, and siege engines and ladders creaked into battle.

In the terrible howl, there are dead people everywhere.

Li Fuyao took 10,000 cavalry troops, waited quietly, the treading cloud under the crotch snorted, the horsetail was raised, and he was a little excited.

I have to praise Peng Yue.

As one of the three generals of Chu and Han, the ability to defend the city is really breathtaking, and now there are only 50,000 or 60,000 people in Pingyang City, but it is not easy to defend the siege of more than 100,000 Han troops.

But Pingyang City is like a lonely boat in the storm, and the city gate is never broken.

Of course, the so-called 50,000 or 60,000 to more than 100,000 is just a number on the books, but in fact, Pingyang City is only so big, and there are no less than 50,000 or 60,000 people staying in the city, and I don't know if it is 50,000 or 60,000 people in rotation.

Liu Bang's army of more than 100,000 people did not swarm all of them, but took turns to attack the city.

So in the final analysis, it is about 30,000 or 40,000 attacking 20,000...... Relying on the city walls that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, it is not easy for the Han army to break the city quickly, and there has even been a situation where the city gate has been broken, and the Han army has rushed in and been beaten out.

Pingyang City has become a meat grinder.

If this continues, the battle losses of the Han army will increase rapidly, and even if it wins a complete victory in the end, it will be extremely unfavorable to pacify the world in the later stage.

Li Fuyao didn't want to make the task more difficult.

After telling Ji Xin a few words, he came to the rear, found Liu Bang and Zhang Liang, and briefly said the battle situation, "I want to lead the cavalry to break through the West Gate, I don't know if Chengxin Hou has a good strategy?" ”

Li Fuyao is now a cavalry general, and he is no longer soft-spoken under Liu Bang.

Liu Bang was a little surprised, "The cavalry is attacking the city? ”

Not to mention that the Han Dynasty had never had it before, even as a traverser, I had never heard of the precedent of a cavalry siege, generally speaking, the cavalry in the siege war was wandering around outside the city, beware of the enemy from breaking through from weak points and blocking reinforcements.

How did the cavalry attack the city and hit the city gate with a war horse?

Zhang Liang's eyes lit up suddenly, and he coughed, and then said weakly: "It seems feasible, the north gate, the south gate, and the east gate are strong feints, and the west gate breaks through the city gate with heavy armor foot soldiers, and the cavalry army seizes the opportunity to rush in, Peng Yue definitely didn't expect that we will enter the city with the cavalry rate." ”

Li Fuyao just put forward ideas, and the specific operations were handed over to Zhang Liang.

Liu Bang had a different opinion, "Peng Yue may not arrange the cavalry at the city gate, it is true that if it can really attack it, the cavalry will be unstoppable, but if the other party sees the cavalry stationed at the west gate and sets up obstacles in the west gate in advance, the cavalry army entering the city is likely to be wiped out." ”

Zhang Liang pondered for a moment, and first said to Liu Bang: "There is no urn city in Pingyang. ”

looked at Li Fuyao again, "Can you seize the opportunity?" ”

Li Fuyao smiled, "You can first ride around the city to attract the attention of the enemy." ”

Zhang Liang patted the case, "In this way, it is feasible to make the rest of the army go all out to attack the three gates of the southeast and north, and the west gate will attack the city with some foot soldiers, and all the heavy armored foot soldiers will gather at the west gate, and after the city is broken, the cavalry will go first, and the heavy armored foot soldiers will enter the city at the same time to defend the cavalry." ”

Liu Bang fell into deep thought.

Do you dare to believe that Zhang Liang and Li Fuyao gambled once?

It is true that in the strategy of the Great Battle, Zhang Liang may only be comparable to Fan Zeng in the battle between Chu and Han, but when it comes to this kind of offensive and defensive battle, Zhang Liang may not be as good as Han Xin and Peng Yue.

If you win the bet, you will win Binh Duong.

If he loses, not only will the heavily armored infantry be finished, but even Li Fuyao's cavalry may also suffer heavy losses.

I also hope to create a powerful cavalry army, which will be used to deal with the overlord of Western Chu in the future, so I really don't want the cavalry to suffer a catastrophe, but if I don't gamble, Pingyang City will not be able to be attacked for a long time, and the battle damage is also distressing.

Li Fuyao and Zhang Liang looked at Liu Bang silently, waiting for him to make a decision.

After a long time, Liu Bang said slowly: "According to the strategy of the two, however, it is also necessary to transfer more than half of the crossbowmen to the west gate to suppress the opponent's crossbowmen. ”

Although the cavalry is strong, it is also a headache to encounter crossbowmen to shoot.

Li Fuyao was stunned, this product wants to be cut down in person?

Immediately woke up, he was probably afraid that the cavalry would die too much in Pingyang, so he had to go in person, to be in the center rather than the lead, after all, this thing has a golden finger of destiny.

As long as he makes a move, the cavalry is not afraid of being cut down by the other side.

Think about it, under the golden finger of the Mandate of Heaven, Liu Bang, who descended from the gods, gathered dark clouds in all directions, and countless lightning bolts fell on the sky, killing countless rebels to the point of flesh, which had a great impact on the morale of both the enemy and us.

This can ensure that the cavalry army will continue to enter Pingyang City, once a large number of cavalry troops enter the city, with heavy armor and foot soldiers, plus the advantage of troops, there is a great possibility to take Pingyang.

Zhang Liang was taken aback, "No! ”

Liu Bang waved his hand, "I have made up my mind, and the ovary will persuade me." ”

Zhang Liang was silent.

Li Fuyao's face was expressionless, but his heart was fluctuating, and he seized the opportunity to make a move at Zhang Liang: mind reading.

It's time to take a look at Zhang Liang's inner world.

Without him, Zhang Liang was surprised and dissuaded extremely sincerely, without the slightest dissent.

If he is a traverser, I am afraid he will not be able to ask for it.

What if Liu Bang dies...... As the military general staff, it is very likely that he will collude with Xiao He to support Liu Bang's descendants and coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes, so that he may have the possibility of winning the world.

But he sincerely dissuaded Liu Bang from recruiting in person.

So Li Fuyao was a little shaken, isn't Zhang Liang really a traverser?

So Li Fuyao heard about Mousheng's psychological activities: this plan is very successful, but Liu Bang wants to recruit in person, it is a troublesome thing, in case there are three long and two short, the Han army will have no leader, even if Pingyang is taken, how to fight against Xiang Yu in the future...... But this human lord is the son of the Red Emperor, and he can attract the tribulation to protect himself, there shouldn't be any problems, besides, he has always been wary of himself, this time he personally recruited and let himself sit in the rear, he should be testing himself, yes, let him go, love to die or not die, anyway, he will do his best to protect him and stabilize the rear, so that he can also dispel his suspicions, so as not to end up with a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey after pacifying the world......

Li Fuyao was a little surprised.

Very unexpected.

Zhang Liang is not a traverser!

Liu Bang was wary of Zhang Liang, but he was afraid of his wisdom as a saint, or because he was wary of the possibility that Zhang Liang was a traverser.

I thought that Han Xin's anti-Han was Zhang Liang, as a traverser, who took advantage of the gap between Han Xin and Liu Bang to deliberately use tricks to persecute Han Xin, but now it seems that there are other people who make Han Xin anti-Han.

In other words, Han Xin himself is a traverser - but combined with the recent war situation between Han Shin and Western Chu, Han Shin has not performed amazingly, and is even far inferior to Han Shin in historical rumors, so it can be concluded that Han Shin should not be a traverser.

If it was a traverser, the wisdom of the saint of Han Xinbing's family and the vision of the prophet would never be forced to be so embarrassed by Xiang Yu.

It's just that I'm still a little puzzled.

Amazing Chu Han, Han Xin, who has been famous for the ages, why is he suddenly mediocre, and he was forced to be so embarrassed by Xiang Yu's simple one-strength reduction of ten, and he was even inferior to the previous Yingbu!

You must know that when Han Xin conquered Yingbu under Xiang Yu, his performance was amazing, and he was definitely worthy of the name of a soldier saint, and even Fan Zeng once said that the halberd was in the middle of Qingyun.

Anyway, Han Shin's mediocrity is a good thing.

Now that it is certain that Zhang Liang is not a traverser, it is even better news for himself.
