Chapter 169: Back to the Pot
Yu Xin listened to the meaning of Qu Fang's words, not only to give himself the public loss class, but also to assign himself a few staff members to teach the battle formation, and suddenly his heart was ecstatic, and then he took a deep look at the several heavily guarded military formations of Chen Jun in front of the gate cave under the city, and thought carefully about the situation of the city gate cave he saw at the east gate of Wanqiu. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
There were several rows of rejecting horses in front of the city gate cave, and they are still there, and the rejecting horses are buried deep in the soil, and it must be difficult to push or pull them up, especially now there are thousands of Chen Jun's three army formations in front of the city gate cave. The city gate cave is filled with huge stones, unless you tie them with ropes and pull them out, you can't move them by people, or you can only chisel them with people, which is too time-consuming. I really don't know how Chen Jun put the stone into the city gate hole, and how he will move it out in the future.
How can I open the city gate smoothly, Yu Xin frowned and groaned. If it was in his time, there would be many ways, mechanical handling, explosives to explode, quantum annihilation weapons... There are too many ways to count. But now you can basically rely on manpower, which makes Yu Xin very depressed.
Seeing Yu Xin's frowning and pondering, Qu Fang knew that he was thinking of a way, and he didn't interfere with him, so he turned around and paid attention to the situation on the battlefield. Now, although the city wall on the left side is steadily advancing, and the right side is also stable, the situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, and Uncle Xia Yu is a powerful character, and she does not dare to take it lightly.
Uncle Xia Yu had a headache at the moment. She sensed that she could not resist her side at the head of the city, so she went out of the big tent out of the city tower and down the city wall, surrounded by a group of staff and personal soldiers. The handsome flag was re-erected in the midst of the military formation. It also calmed down the military morale of the panicked defenders of Dongcheng.
But the Chu army in the city has already gained a firm foothold, and she is also weak. It can only continue to organize the follow-up troops under the city to counterattack the city.
It's just that without the advantage of the city wall, the disadvantage of the quality of Chen's individual soldiers gradually appeared, and finally he couldn't resist the encroachment of the Chu army, and slowly even the left side of the city was occupied by the Chu army. The space at the head of the city was limited, and the superior strength of Chen's army could not be reflected at all. This made her very anxious. There were also blisters on the corners of his mouth.
The Chu army used poison gas to attack the city, and Uncle Xia Yu's reaction was not unpleasant, but it was a pity that the Chu army was not fully prepared in the end, and the step by step was poor, which eventually led to the current situation.
It's not that she didn't find a way to drive the Chu army out of the city, but it's a pity that several counterattack failures cast a shadow on her heart. Even if he used an indiscriminate rain of arrows that injured 1,000 enemies and damaged 800 themselves, he still couldn't take the tower. Uncle Xia Yu knew that the general trend was gone.
Now her only reliance is to hold the city gate tightly, and constantly rely on the superiority of troops, even if it is two for one or three for one, she will consume the Chu army.
She had already ordered the defenders of the other three gates to be brought in for reinforcements. Moreover, according to the information she currently has, the Chu army only has two guards in siege, as long as the other two guards rush to support, they can regain the city wall.
Uncle Xia frowned and thought about countermeasures tightly. At present, the heart of his own army is unstable, especially after he gave the order to attack indiscriminately with arrows, the army is even more shaky, and now even the eyes of the soldiers around him are not as full of reverence as before, and there is a layer of awe that has never been felt before.
Uncle Xia Yu sighed in his heart, and glanced at the staff members around him who were sweating on their foreheads to help him convey military orders, and there would be someone to take the blame for him at that time.
"General, we can't stand it on the left." One of the generals came out of the ranks, his forehead was also covered with sweat, and there was an anxious look in his eyes. Most of the soldiers on the left are from her family. If all these soldiers die, the strength of the family will be greatly reduced, and even her future in the army will be affected.
"Did the ladder come out? Hurry up and put the ladder on the left city wall, and organize the soldiers of the two capitals to go to the city to support, be sure to support it. Uncle Xia Yu slowly exhaled a breath of turbidity, glanced at the general, and said without hurrying. Don't worry, as long as you repel the Chu army, I will keep your credit in my heart. ”
The general's lips quivered, and he retreated. Being seen through her mind, she naturally felt very embarrassed.
"The general's ladder is on its way, but since we are the defender of the city, the ladder is the previous reserve and the number is not too much, and because the city needs to defend the city, many ladders have been demolished to make city defense equipment." A battalion general in charge of logistics stood up, his face full of apprehension.
Uncle Xia's eyelids jumped, and he glared at the battalion general, who suddenly fell to his knees and sat on the ground with his feet weak.
Uncle Xia endured and endured, but in the end he just glanced at the heavy battalion general with disgust, waved his hand, and didn't say anything. Because it was she who gave the order to demolish the ladder and build the equipment to defend the city.
Naturally, the baggage battalion general will not be stupid enough to say this himself, and it is an act of seeking death to put the responsibility on the superiors. She thought about it before leaving the ranks, and finally decided to fight this matter herself, so that even if she died, she could still protect her family. But in the end, she was right, and the general did not hold her responsible. The baggage battalion climbed back into the queue with both hands and feet, and his eyes were full of joy.
"General Tao, when the time comes, you will lead the left guard army to the city, and you don't need those conscripted soldiers, not only can you not help the army at the head of the city on the left, but will delay the speed of the army going to the city." Uncle Xia Yu was very dissatisfied with the performance of the servant mother. It's okay to defend the city normally, but once they face the enemy, the Chu army will be ugly, defeated and retreated, and even added a lot of trouble to their elite guards, and they have to be distracted to save them.
The general surnamed Tao is Uncle Xia's confidant, and at this critical juncture for the survival of the country, she naturally can't refuse, strides out of the queue, hugs her fists, and leaves. Although the ladder has not yet been transported, she still has to go to meet her subordinate guards and soldiers first to make some preparations.
Uncle Xia Yu watched General Tao leave, thought about it again, patted his thigh and said, "No!" It is necessary to have many ladders, ladders to support everywhere, and even organize men and horses to attack the city in the section of the city wall occupied by the Chu army, so that the Chu army is tired of coping, so that there is a chance to drive the Chu army off the city. ”
"General, all the fifty ladders in our army have been transported, and even if our subordinates organize the craftsmen of the baggage battalion to build them with all their might, it will be too late at this moment." When the baggage battalion general saw that Uncle Xia Yu had lifted himself again, his heart hung again, and he walked out of the queue again.
"If there is no one in the army, then go to the big families in the city to recruit them, don't think that the general doesn't know, some families build their mansions like castles, and there are naturally many high ladders in the house." Uncle Xia Yu waved his hand viciously, and his face was full of fierceness. "Let them know that if Wanqiu City can't be defended, they don't want to be alone."
"This is a subordinate, and a subordinate can't do it." The baggage battalion wiped the cold sweat on his forehead again and again. She is a small battalion general, with no background and no power, dare to do this kind of offending thing, even if she defeats the Chu army in the future, I am afraid that Chen Guo will not have a place for her.
"I know you can't do it." Uncle Xia Yu glanced at the commander of the baggage battalion lightly, this person is still very loyal to himself, and he is also very effective in commanding the baggage battalion, and he can also take the blame for himself just now, Uncle Xia Yu naturally will not embarrass her at this time, and turned his head to the staff who gave him the order to attack indiscriminately. "You can do it for me. Take my tiger talisman order, if anyone dares to disobey, all of them will be engaged in local military law! ”
There was despair in the staff member's eyes. She was worried that Uncle Xia Yu would throw the black cauldron of indiscriminate attacks on herself, but now she was really going to do it against herself, it seemed that the silent prayer in her heart before didn't work at all.
The surrounding generals also showed a trace of sympathy in their eyes, but they immediately turned their heads away, not daring to show a slight difference in front of Uncle Xia Yu. This kind of thing, as long as you don't do it yourself, no one will take the initiative to stand up.
This staff member also has no background and no power, otherwise he would not have been in the army for several years and would still be a staff member who is not light or important. Eyes full of pleading swept over the surrounding people, seeing that no one pleaded for themselves, it was a few colleagues who Su Ri had befriended him, and he didn't even dare to look at himself at the moment, and the staff finally gave up, thinking that the baggage battalion had just taken the blame for Uncle Xia Yu and got a way to live, he immediately gritted his teeth, and arched his hand: "Obey the order, and complete the task." ”
"Go ahead!" Uncle Xia Yu nodded appreciatively, but there was a sigh in his heart. Her staff and the baggage battalion will not be the same, she must die, otherwise how can she extinguish the anger of those Chen soldiers who died in the hands of her own people, and calm her people's criticism of herself, especially the anger of those big families in the city.
Seeing the appreciation in Uncle Xia's eyes, the staff member immediately felt a trace of life, and a desire to survive was born in his heart. At this moment, whoever wants to block her way of life, she will destroy whom, and neither can those big families in the city!
