Chapter 269 Fire Attack VS Street Fight

War is a constant process of making mistakes.

In the war, both sides are constantly revealing flaws and making mistakes again and again. And the side that makes fewer mistakes, the side that can react in time and correct quickly, is often the winner.

In the battle of Bianliang, Zhang easily accepted the rebels from all walks of life, although he contained the "righteous soldiers" into the army, but also attracted some scum in.

Some contradictions lurk in them, like time bombs, and there is nothing in normal times; However, at the moment when the Jin army attacked fiercely and Bianliang was crumbling, the bomb was detonated, and Li Yi rebelled, making it easy for the Jin army to enter Bianliang.

Li Yi is not the first, even if there is no Li Yi mutiny, there will be others who mutiny, but others have more scruples and are just one step late.

The regular army of the Song Dynasty has long been wiped out, and the main body guarding Bianliang is the righteous army that has poured in from all over the country.

The rebel army, on the other hand, is mostly bandits from the local area, with routs, van troops, gentry armies, etc., and the composition is too complicated. It is not easy to integrate such a complex group of people into one, and it is even more difficult to raise their combat effectiveness to the elite level. It's okay to barely defend the city, but if it's a face-to-face fierce battle, it's definitely a loss.

Therefore, at the moment when the Jin army entered the city, the Bianliang defenders were instantly defeated and became a rout, and the resistance still existed, but the number was very small.

These are the fatal flaws of the Song army, and the combination of the two flaws is enough to form a trend of annihilation of the whole army.

Fortunately, Song Jun is making mistakes, and Jin Jun is also making mistakes.

After three years of fierce fighting, especially after the large-scale looting, the Jin army was hit by "sugar-coated shells", lost by wine, and could not be conquered for a long time, and was absent under the fortified city. As a result, the veterans of the division were tired, the twilight was born, and the combat effectiveness was sharply reduced. Except for a very few people who are aware of it, most people are also addicted to the illusion of the invincible Jin Army.

At this moment, there is no property to plunder in Bianliang, only a group of Han people who do not want to die to resist desperately.

Under the circumstance that the casualties were large and the profits were not high, the Jin army's offensive enthusiasm was not too high.

In addition, Jin Wushu and others were too optimistic, and after entering the city, they did not concentrate their troops. Fight steadily, but divide the troops and move forward boldly.

These three fatal shortcomings made the Jin army supposed to fight a beautiful war of annihilation, but it turned into a quagmire war.

After making mistakes, though. The generals on both sides began to make timely remedies and take corresponding targeted measures.

The hostile situation changes rapidly. In many cases, the command of the generals is lagging behind. The subtlety of application is in one mind, and the response of front-line generals dominates the trend of the battlefield at many times.

…………

During the battle, the Jin army relied on the city wall and constantly eliminated the Song soldiers on the city wall, and gradually the outer city was conquered by the Jin army; And the Song soldiers were cowering in the inner city. and between the vast markets outside the inner city.

After occupying the outer city, the Jin army continued to attack the inner city and the people's residences, like the waves of the sea, constantly compressing the activity space of the Song army. tried to wipe out the Song army;

The Song army relied on the inner city, took advantage of the familiar terrain, and regarded the Fangmin dwellings as fortresses, constantly attacking outward, not pursuing a grand breakthrough, but a small force dispatched, a hammer in the east, a mallet in the west, piecemeal attacks, each time only killed a dozen, or even a few Jin troops, they were satisfied and retreated.

And with the battle, the battle gradually turned into a duel between the Condor Heroes and the Python.

The Jin army is like a python, entwining its prey, strangling it to its heart's content, strangled its prey alive; And Song Jun is like a divine eagle entwined by a python, although he is trapped and in a desperate situation, he still continues to expand his wings and peck at the snake's head.

Once again, the battle became a stalemate.

The Jin army occupies a geographical advantage, but the number is too small, 80,000 people are scattered in the outer city, the number is too thin, if the Song army grasps a certain point of onslaught, it is easy to be broken through; The Song army was in a disadvantageous situation, but the victory was stable, and it could use residential areas to fight street battles, and the advantages of the Jin army could not be displayed at all.

The battle has reached now, both sides are trapped, and if they want to get out, it is no longer possible, they can only hold on.

And just like that, time imperceptibly arrived, and the next day.

On the third day, there was still a stalemate, and there was still a fight.

Fighting and fighting, the two sides gradually got a feeling, the Jin army attacked during the day, and the Song army attacked at night, you come and go, sneak attacks, assassinations. The battle has been fought so far, and it has been separated from the original battle of the army, with a total of hundreds of thousands of people on both sides, and small groups of people are hunting and killing in small groups in urban areas and residential areas.

The Jin army seems to have returned to the white mountains and black waters, constantly laying traps in the jungle, or dispatching bait, leading to hunting, or shooting with bows and arrows accurately, constantly hunting prey; And the Song army also took the ambush tactics to the extreme, and each house became a trap and a fortress of death, constantly sniping and killing the soldiers of the Jin army.

The battle is still moving slowly.

On the fourth day, the Song army suffered a lot of casualties, and the Jin army's casualties were not small, but the Song army did not break through the outer walls of the Jin army, and the Jin army did not attack it.

It's the fifth day......

It's the sixth day......

It's the seventh day............

On the eighth day, the Golden Vulture could no longer sit down.

At this time, Zhang Suo couldn't sit down.

The Golden Vulture is a bit difficult to ride a tiger, and the battle has been defeated at this point, and if you want to quit, it is impossible at all, and you have to continue to grit your teeth and fight no matter what. It's just that the street fighting is difficult to fight, and it is even more difficult to fight than Taiyuan, and the number of Jin troops killed and wounded in the street fighting is increasing.

Zhang Suo was also very uncomfortable, he lost the outer city, a large number of equipment was lost, and a large amount of grain was lost, and the food stored in the inner city was less than fifteen days. Once the food is exhausted, the Song army will be completely finished at that time. Time is limited, and the stalemate cannot continue. You have to find a way to break through, the soldiers who defend the city are all good, and they can run away one by one.

Jin Wushu said: "Is there a way to break the city?" ”

At this time, Guo Yaoshi, who has always been active in speaking and enthusiastically putting forward opinions, was silent, he already had a way to crack the street fight, but that opinion was too immoral, and he didn't dare to speak.

"General Guo, there is a way to crack the street battle!" Jin Wushu asked by name.

"This ......," said Pharmacist Guo, "yes, yes, it's just ...... It's too lacking! “

"Oh?!!" Jin Wushu was a little surprised, "I don't know what the method is?" ”

"Cracking street battles is nothing more than two methods, one is water attack, and the other is fire attack! To break the Bianliang street battle, it is best to use the method of fire attack! Pharmacist Guo gritted his teeth and finally spoke.

"Fire attack, crack the street fight! It's a good idea! The Golden Vulture immediately fell into deep thought, and after a while, he spoke in appreciation. (To be continued......)
