Thirty-Nine Siege 2
The veterans are still like this, and the new soldiers are even more unbearable, the dead soldiers of the Yuan army soon cleared a few pieces of territory at the head of the city, and then more dead soldiers of the Yuan army stepped on the dirt mountain and swarmed up, and under the earth mountain, more dead soldiers of the Yuan army were like endless ant colonies, waiting to climb the earth mountain, waiting to step on the city, and the situation was already precarious.

Seeing that the north gate was about to be lost, Zhuge Jun's tall figure suddenly appeared on the city.
When the two dead soldiers of the Yuan Army saw a general of the Xuzhou Army wearing heavy armor suddenly appear in front of them, they suddenly burst into flames and pounced on them with a scream.
"Die!"
Zhuge Jun held the Tang knife with just a sweep, and the two Yuan Jun dead soldiers were beheaded on the spot, and the bloody stomach and intestines were suddenly sprinkled all over the ground, but the two Yuan Jun dead soldiers still did not lose their breath, dragging the upper half of their bodies, and struggling to raise a short sword to stab Zhuge Jun, but they had already been beheaded by Jiang Xu behind Zhuge Jun.
"Hah! Die!! ”
Zhuge Jun stabbed him again, and immediately stabbed the leader of the Yuan army in front of him.
The two dead soldiers behind Captain Yuan took the opportunity to stab Harry Oil, but they were killed on the spot by Liang Xi and Zhao Yun.
At the same time as drawing the knife, Zhuge Jun took advantage of the situation and kicked hard, and the body of the leader of the Yuan army suddenly flew backwards, knocking over several dead soldiers of the Yuan army in a row, and then tumbling and falling down the city.
Zhuge Jun grabbed the head of the city in a few steps, and slashed on the cloud ladder connected to the earth mountain and the city wall.
The iron sheet wrapped in the exterior of the ladder can't stop the blade of the Tang knife at all, Zhuge Jun's Tang knife weighs fifty catties, and its slashing power is almost no less than that of a heavy axe, how can it be blocked by a thin iron sheet?
With just two slashes, the ladder had been cut in two from the top.
Losing the confinement of the top barb, the upper half of the ladder quickly slipped down against the city wall, and several Yuan soldiers who climbed on it suddenly screamed and fell, and the Yuan soldiers who were crowded at the foot of the ladder and climbed the siege did not have time to dodge, and dozens of people were immediately seriously injured.
Zhuge Jun cut off the ladder with two knives, and then jumped on the battlement, raising his knife and howling: "Roar ......"
Behind Zhuge Jun, Jiang Xu, Liang Xi and more than 100 personal soldiers also raised their swords in their hands and roared in the sky.
"Childe is mighty!"
"Childe is mighty!"
"Childe is mighty!"
Under the encouragement of Zhuge Jun, the Xuzhou army at the head of the city suddenly boosted its morale, and immediately turned back to launch a fierce counterattack against the strong army dead soldiers who stepped on the city, with the advantage of numbers, the Xuzhou army soon killed the dead soldiers of the Yuan army who climbed to the head of the city, and the blacksmiths of the Xuzhou army who rushed to help the battle also waved the sledgehammer and smashed the other five ladders that hooked the battlements.
The situation on the battlefield suddenly took a turn for the worse, and the sound of bullhorns sounded outside the city.
In the distant and desolate sound of the horn, the dead soldiers of the Yuan army, who were originally crowded under the city wall, turned around one after another, pushing the broken ladders and the seriously damaged siege vehicles to slowly retreat, and the heavily armored soldiers who were originally guarding the front of the battle also suddenly rushed up, protecting the light soldiers who were retreating with thick shields.
At this point, the first siege of Yuan's army had been completely repulsed.
Suddenly, the soldiers of the Xuzhou Army crowded on the city raised their heads to the sky and roared, the huge sound almost shattered the eardrums of the Yuan army on the opposite side, and many recruits of the Xuzhou Army jumped on the battlements again, or lifted their robes to pee outside the city, or pouted their buttocks and swayed left and right, extremely provocative and insulting.
In the distance, in the Yuan army's array, Sun Jian's expression was like iron.
This kid is really not simple, with him and without him, the bravery shown by the Xuzhou Army is simply incomparable, for a moment, Sun Jian even suspected that his invincible son was coming! It seems that the battle of this mountain city will really take a little more effort, but it doesn't matter, Zhuge Jun'er only has a lone army, how long can it last?
In the next seven days, the Yuan army really died down and did not launch an attack again, and the Xuzhou army in the mountain city did not have the slightest intention of abandoning the city and fleeing, and seemed to be determined to defend to the end.
In the past seven days, Zhuge Jun has not been idle, he has been preparing for entering the Taishan Mountain Range.
Zhuge Jun knows very well in his heart that no matter whether the flooding strategy can succeed or not, next, the Xuzhou army is bound to move to the Taishan Mountains, the current Taishan Mountains, which are primeval forests in the real sense, fortunately it is autumn now, and if it is summer, 10,000 Xuzhou troops will enter the mountains, and it will be good to have 35,000 people come out alive.
In the primeval forest, snakes and insects are rampant, and they have always eaten people without spitting out bones.
However, even though it is late autumn, the Xuzhou army must be fully prepared.
Because there is no supply in the mountains, it is necessary to prepare a large amount of dry food, flints, leggings, cloth shoes and other things in advance, especially dry food!
Now, Liang Xi is supervising the soldiers to make "fried noodles".
In the room, dozens of strong soldiers were wielding shovels, stir-frying brown rice, bean grains, and millet in a large iron kettle, and occasionally sprinkling a handful of coarse salt into it.
Zhuge grabbed a handful and tasted it, the taste was really rough, but it was good to satisfy hunger.
The main reason is that the stone mill is very problematic now, unlike the stone mill of later generations with seven sectors, and the texture is also very fine lines, the stone mill of the Qin and Han dynasties basically has no sector, and the texture is also a pit of irregular size and shape, and the grain is naturally rough and unbearable.
Unfortunately, there is no time to improve the stone mill now.
Seeing that the "fried noodles" had been almost prepared, and there was not much food left that had not been fried, Liang Xi, who accompanied him, suggested to Zhuge Jun: "Son, the dry food has been almost prepared, but Lao Zhou has not seen any movement for a long time, it is estimated that he is either recognized or in trouble, why not abandon the city and enter the mountains tonight?" ”
"See?" Zhuge Jun looked at Yan Yan behind him and asked, "What does the old general think?" ”
Yan Yan obviously wouldn't give in easily, and ignored Zhuge Jun as usual.
Zhuge Jun was bored and said to Liang Xi: "Don't worry, Zhou Cang will definitely not make a mistake!" ”
Liang Xi was still a little worried: "But if it is discovered, I am worried that the Yuan army is likely to give up the tactics of encircling the three and one, and instead encircle the mountain city on all sides, in this case, it will be difficult for our army to break through again." ”
"That's nothing, it's a big deal to fight with Yuan Jun!" Zhuge Jun smiled faintly and said, "Moreover, I believe in Zhou Cang, he will never let me down!" ”
There are not many generals in the Xuzhou army camp who can stand alone, Huang Zhongtai Shici is outstanding, but unfortunately he didn't follow him, Liang Xi and Jiang Xu are still not as good as Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang's martial arts are not very good, but he is a clever person, otherwise with Guan Yu's temper, Zhou Cang would have died a long time ago, because people are clever, and they are good materials for doing such things.
Therefore, for Zhou Cang's ability, Zhuge Jun still trusts him very much.
What's more, Zhuge Jun didn't think that Sun Jian would be able to see through why bother's actions!
After all, Sun Jian is an ancient, not like he is a traverser, he knows that once a big river like the Xiaowen River bursts, a radius of hundreds of miles will be flooded, located in the low-lying vicinity of the Culai Mountain, it will definitely turn into a Ze country, this is a historical case can be used for reference, in 255 A.D. Xiaowen ditch formed the yellow flood area, stretching for nearly thousands of miles!
Sun Jian was born in the Jiangmen and was also a wise man, so he would definitely be wary of his own flooding strategy.
However, Sun Jian would never have thought that digging the Xiaoxi River from a hundred and fifty miles away would still be able to flood here! This happened a few decades later, Pan Litao, a famous minister of river governance in the late Three Kingdoms period, summed up the experience of his predecessors in river governance, and put forward the river control strategy of "harnessing water and attacking sand" according to the characteristics of Xiaowen River's water and sand, and carefully set up the embankment, and created the remote embankment, the wisp embankment, the grid embankment, and the moon embankment, which were used together on both sides of the Xiaowen River according to local conditions, so as to achieve the purpose of "building embankments to restrain water and attack sand with water", and made more achievements in water control and sand control. In the Qing Dynasty, Jin Fu and Chen Huang inherited Pan's idea of governing the river, and developed and made great achievements in the management of the river and the protection of the trough.
Zhuge Jun knew that this had nothing to do with wisdom and ability, it was completely determined by insight, or this was the so-called historical limitation, just like an ancient, who had never seen a stirrup, it was difficult for him to imagine the scene of the heavy cavalry charge!
