Everyone nodded, the name of Ban Yuman is also resounding in Yizhou, after all, this is a reputation that has been built over many years. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Jiang Wei continued: "Therefore, it is impossible for us to fight head-on with Ban Yuman, although the other three city gates and the security in Chengdu City have been handed over to the private guards of the Zhang family and the Lei family, but we only have a total of two thousand troops to be able to fight, so we can only defend, everyone should have no opinion." ā
Everyone nodded and agreed with Jiang Wei's statement.
Jiang Wei smiled, pointed to the Ban Yu Man outside the city and said: "Although our combat effectiveness is far lower than that of the Ban Yu Man, but we occupy the advantage of the city defense, just now I observed the Ban Yu Man, and found that they only have more than 20 ladders, five simple rushing cars, and the archers are less than two hundred, and they are all using simple wooden bows, so the Ban Yu Man's siege ability is obviously insufficient, as long as we strictly defend to the death, we can easily defend the Ban Yu Barbarian's siege and frustrate the morale of the Ban Man." ā
"Next, we only need to proceed according to the original plan, but because Zhang Ren is responsible for guarding Li Xu and others, we need to temporarily change the plan, and when the siege of Ban Yu is over, Zi Quan will take five hundred people from the south gate to attack Ban Yu Man from behind, and then I will lead five hundred people out of the city with Long Zhi to meet you, and strive to break the enemy's morale at one time!"
Liu Xin nodded, spread a topographic map outside the east gate of Chengdu on the ground, pointed to the map, a "forest" surrounded by irregular dotted lines, and said: "There is a forest ten miles outside the east gate, enough to accommodate five hundred people to hide in it, when Wang Shuang you will lead people to hide here first, and when the Ban Yu barbarian attack is frustrated and begins to set up camp, you will lead the troops to kill, if your attack is blocked and you can't meet with Boyo Zixing, then you will lead the troops directly to the west, and then there will be a hill, It's easy to defend and difficult to attack, so you can defend there temporarily, and if you really can't do it, continue to retreat from the back mountain, go directly to Lezhi City, and join Master Xia and them. ā
Wang Shuang nodded, indicating that he had memorized it.
Zhang Song looked at the map on the ground and found that this was one of the more than ten maps that Liu Xin had drawn by himself a few days ago.
Qin Mi looked at the map and couldn't help but say, "This map is much simpler and more intuitive than the maps I've seen before, but how can Liu Gongzi determine the distance?" ā
Liu Xin smiled slightly, and it was time to talk about his "invention" again, "I have used a new concept on this map, called scale, which is the ratio of the length of a line segment on the map to the actual length of the corresponding line segment on the ground, that is to say, the scale bar is equal to the ratio of the distance on the map to the actual distance, and the distance between the two places can be known through simple conversion." ā
Qin Mi and the others suddenly realized, no wonder Liu Xin was able to say the distance so surely.
Qin Mi said with admiration: "Liu Gongzi is really talented, and he can improve the map to such a point. ā
Liu Xin shook his head, and pretended to be profound: "No, no, no, this map is not perfect enough, I personally think that the map can go further, including all the roads, forests, rivers and mountains, I am going to use some special symbols to represent, which will be more concise and clear." ā
As soon as Liu Xin's words fell, he saw Yan Shuai leading the Chengdu officials and troops to the bottom of the city tower.
Liu Xin ordered someone to invite Yan Shuai to the city tower, and told Yan Shuai about the situation of Ban Yuman and the plan he had just made.
Yan Shuai put down the binoculars in his hand and said seriously: "Now that the Banyu barbarians are coming to the city, I will also return the command of the Chengdu official army to the Huang County Order, and everything will be subject to the command of the Huang County Order." ā
Liu Xin smiled and said to Yan Shuai: "Lieutenant Yan really understands the righteousness. ā
Yan Shuai shook his head and said: "I am self-aware, the plan that Brother Boyo made just now is already perfect, if it were me, it would definitely be unexpected, so I still don't want to add to it, so as not to affect Brother Boyo's plan." ā
Huang Mei nodded at this time and said: "County Lieutenant Yan said well, let's get rid of Ban Yu Barbarian as soon as possible, and then we can send troops to support Jiangzhou City." ā
When Yan Shuai heard this, he immediately nodded, this is what he wants.
Ban Yuman was about to come to the city, Liu Xin and the others also ended their chat, each making preparations, Wang Shuang had already taken five hundred soldiers to the south gate.
On the city wall of the east gate, only Jiang Wei and Yan Shuai with thirty or forty soldiers were patrolling to relax the vigilance of the barbarians, and in fact, a thousand soldiers were arranged to hide, including three hundred archers.
Ryuji took the remaining troops and stood by behind the east gate, and as long as he gave an order, Ryuji would lead people out of the city.
As for Liu Xin and the others, they sat in the city tower and observed the dynamics of Ban Yuman through the window.
Everything was in order, but the atmosphere was getting tense as everyone knew that a big war was about to break out.
On the other hand, Luo Gou, the leader of the Ban Man, looked at the Chengdu City that was getting closer and closer, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this Chengdu City is really majestic and tall.
Luo Gou is also regarded as a southern expedition to the north and south, he has seen many cities, the height of the city wall is mostly about ten meters, the highest city wall Luo Gou has seen before, is the fifteen-meter-high Jiangzhou City, and the Chengdu City in front of him is much higher than Jiangzhou City, and the visual inspection is full of twenty meters!
Thinking of this, Luo Gou couldn't help but look back at the siege weapons that Yin Yi had prepared for himself, and couldn't help but shake his head, these siege weapons were simply not enough for Chengdu City, so he could only take advantage of the fact that the defenders of Chengdu City did not react and attack the city wall first, so that he could easily take Chengdu City and reduce his losses.
Thinking of this, Luo Gou couldn't help but slander, this Yi said that he would provide him with 500 reinforcements, but when he arrived at the camp arranged by Yin Yi outside the city yesterday, Xin Yi's subordinates told him that these 500 reinforcements could only be responsible for pressing the formation in the rear, and could not be used as the vanguard of the siege, so as not to reveal the identity of Yi Yi after being captured by the Chengdu official army.
Luo Gou can only laugh at this explanation, this reason is only a fool would believe!
Isn't this just a clear display of using the board as cannon fodder, and doesn't want to lose one of his soldiers?
This is 500 reinforcements, but 500 overseers.
However, for Luo Gou, he trusts his clansmen's combat power very much, and it is not a problem to be a mere Chengdu city!
Luo Gou scolded in his mouth, and soon came to the east gate of Chengdu, but for some reason, the city gate was closed.
Luo Gou frowned, this is different from what he said last night.
