The person who interjected was none other than Shumo. Shumo has always lived in a person with a higher status than him, and he flatters him; People with a lower status than him are in a state of life. But his brain is not stupid, it should be said that he is still relatively smart. Therefore, in normal times, he also knows that in the eyes of others, he is actually a little looked down upon.

And the master of Shumo - Wu Shigong is relatively strong, as a relatively weak character of Shumo, he is actually very content with the current life of hiding behind Wu Shigong, not needing to use his own brains, everything can be done as long as he listens to Wu Shigong's words.

But in the past few days, Qin Liangyu seconded Shumo to his side as a siege consultant. Moreover, Qin Liangyu also attaches great importance to Shumo, and basically obeys Shumo's idea of attacking the city.

And Shumo's two siege jihuas were actually unsuccessful. But even so, Qin Liangyu was still kind to Shumo, and did not make any accusations against Shumo. This made Shumo a little moved.

And now Qin Liangyu is in a hurry to attack the city again after the white pole soldiers have suffered heavy losses. But all the people around her could also see that Qin Liangyu's behavior was actually a little anxious. But no one dared to persuade her, or only her son Ma Xianglin dared to persuade her, but she was beaten and scolded by Qin Liangyu.

At this time, I don't know how to do it, maybe there is a hint of the death of a confidant in it, and Shumo opened his mouth to prevent Ma Xianglin from attacking the city again. But after Shumo's words came out, he saw Qin Liangyu's phoenix eyes looking at him, and he regretted it in his heart, and he didn't know where the slightest feeling of being a confidant had died.

But now that the words have been spoken, they can't take it back, so Shumo has no choice but to bite the bullet and say: "Chief Qin! The small one looks at it that way. Not to mention the morale of the soldiers, how many thousands of enemies and swarms are there in Tartar City alone? We didn't know that the casualties in the siege would be very large. ”

Seeing that Qin Liangyu's brows were getting tighter and tighter, Shumo hurriedly continued: "Actually, according to Xiao's opinion, it has only been half a day now, and after the soldiers have eaten lunch and recuperated their spirits, we will still have a chance to capture Luanzhou City today." And in a small way, we still have a siege weapon that is useless. ”

"Oh?" Qin Liangyu's face softened. To be honest, just now, if it weren't for Shumo, an outsider, who was obstructing, Qin Liangyu on the fire would not have listened to the advice of others at all. Contrary to Shumo's feeling a little guilty that his siege suggestion did not work, Qin Liangyu actually appreciated Shumo's suggestion. Therefore, when she heard that Shumo had a way to attack the city, she immediately became interested.

Qin Liangyu immediately asked, "What kind of sharp weapon?"

"Artillery!" Shumo replied immediately. But this answer made Qin Liangyu's brows tighten again.

The cannon that Wu Shigong lent to Qin Liangyu was only a three-pound cannon, and there was no way to damage the city wall, let alone collapse it. And there is another problem: the artillery of the Ming Dynasty at that time could not adjust the high and low firing angles of the artillery, that is, Wu Shigong's artillery could not hit the top of the city wall at all. Therefore, in the siege just now, no artillery was used.

Seeing Qin Liangyu's question, Shumo continued: "If the artillery is placed on the car like this, it will definitely not hit the top of the city wall, but we can take the artillery off the car and pile a mound of earth on the ground, and place the cannon diagonally on the mound, so that the artillery can hit the top of the city wall." ”

Shumo then reminded: "But in this way, the accuracy of the artillery is not guaranteed." It is inevitable that there will be some accidental injuries, so I have to ask General Qin to bear with me. ”

Hearing this, Qin Liangyu turned his face to Ma Xianglin. Later, Ma Xianglin led the white pole soldiers to attack the city, and this danger was also borne by Ma Xianglin.

Ma Xianglin's mouth cracked, and he said indifferently: "Above the battle array, it is common to go to the soup and fire, and some dangers are nothing." However, you also need to make sure that the gunner is more accurate. ”

Shumo laughed dryly a few times after hearing this. He continued, "Also, this rush car has pushed back one. If you can repair haode, it can also play a role in the siege of the city later. Also, the small one thinks that the ladder should be divided into two groups......"

Qin Liangyu and the military attachés around him listened carefully to Shumo's Jihua, and they had to admit that Shumo's Jihua was quite thoughtful. And this is not just a manifestation of Shumo's talent in attacking and defending cities. This is mainly due to the fact that Wu Shigong had the officers conduct a large number of city attack and defense drills at that time, so that Shumo and these officers had a lot of experience in the attack and defense of the city.

After Shumo finished talking about his jihua, Qin Liangyu immediately decided to follow Shumo's siege jihua. After arranging for the military attachés to let the white pole soldiers hurry up for lunch, Qin Liangyu called the leader of the craftsmen in the white pole soldiers.

Qin Liangyu asked, "How long will it take to repair that rushing car?" ”

The leader of the craftsmen hurriedly replied, "If you go back to the big handsome, it will take two hours." ”

"It's too long. I'll give you an hour. You don't have to completely fix the punch car, as long as the punch can be used. ”

At this time, Qin Liangyu's siege today was very unsmooth, but the Houjin army in Luanzhou City was also very uncomfortable. In the morning siege, the white pole soldiers suffered more than 400 casualties, and then the Jin army also suffered about 250 casualties.

What made Namutai, the commander of the Houjin Army, even more sad was that of the 250 killed and wounded in the Houjin Army, more than 100 of them were bannermen with blue flags, and nearly 50 white-armored soldiers were killed in battle.

And now in Luanzhou City, there are only 30,000 enemies and more than a dozen swarms left. According to Namutai's estimates, these weapons could withstand a single attack by the Ming army at most.

Therefore, Namutai quietly summoned Turge and Tanggudai to his side, and told them to be ready at all times, in case the city of Luanzhou was broken, it was necessary to assemble in time and flee from the northern city gate.

Qin Liangyu was waiting for the car to be repaired, and at this time, suddenly a spy came running on horseback from a distance. When the spy arrived in front of Qin Liangyu, he turned over and dismounted, knelt down and said, "Great Marshal, there are more than 700 reinforcements from the Tartars, and they have arrived at a place about ten miles away from us in the east. ”

After listening to the spy's advice, Qin Liangyu immediately ordered the soldiers beside him: "You go to Wu Qianhu quickly, and tell him that he must drag the Tartar reinforcements until the sun sets." If he lets a Tartar go, let him kill himself. Don't defile the sword of Shang Fang given by the emperor. ”

The pro-soldier immediately let go of the horse's hooves and galloped away in the direction of Wu Shigong's army.

In fact, the pro-soldier had not yet arrived at Wu Shigong, and Wu Shigong had already met the Houjin army of the three Niu Lu led by Ba Duli.

Before that spy told Qin Liangyu, when that spy passed by Wu Shigong's blocked army, he had already told Wu Shigong the news that more than 700 cavalry reinforcements from the Houjin army had arrived. Wu Shigong immediately asked the soldiers who were sitting on the ground to rest to stand up, lined up in formation, and prepared for battle.

All the soldiers were very nervous. However, because they are lined up in place, the queue is very neat. Soon, from far to near, Baduli's reinforcements had arrived, and they also stopped their horses three or four hundred paces in front of Wu Shigong's formation. The two sides confronted each other.

Batuli suddenly stood on the saddle and made an acrobatic move. He covered his eyebrows with his hands and squinted his eyes to carefully observe the formation of Wu Shigong's army. Looking at it, Batuli felt that it was very tricky. Wu Shigong's army was neatly arranged, and there was a wooden fence in front of the formation.

Baduli has been on the battlefield for a long time and knows that in the army, there is no showmanship, and since the Ming army in front of him can arrange the queue so neatly, the training level in ordinary times must be very high, and the combat effectiveness will not be much worse.

It was not possible for Baduli to bypass the Ming army in front of him and directly attack the besieging Ming army under Luanzhou City. Because if he did this, not to mention that the terrain here was not open, Baduli would not have enough space to bypass the Ming army in front of him.

Let's just say that Baduli can take the Houjin army around, when Baduli led the reinforcements and the Houjin army in Luanzhou City to flank Qin Liangyu's army before and after, Wu Shigong's army would also reflexively flank Baduli's support army.

At that point, it's nothing more than a scuffle. No matter what the situation is, it is a lose-lose result. The losses of the Houjin army will certainly not be small, and the bannermen with blue flags will also have great casualties. Because the support army led by Batuli is composed of bannermen with blue flags.

More importantly, the main purpose of the reason why Baylor Ye Amin sent Baduli's reinforcements was to let Baduli take over the retreat of the Houjin army in Luanzhou City when Luanzhou City could not be saved. It was also to cover Amin's retreat from Yongping City with the looted property and population. In other words, the main purpose is to preserve the strength of the blue flag. Therefore, the practice of bypassing the Ming army in front of him was not in line with the operational purpose of the Batuli support army.

And Wu Shigong didn't know Baduli's thoughts at this time, and his heart was also very nervous. Wu Shigong had already received an order from Qin Liangyu's personal soldiers, and knew that Qin Liangyu wanted him to drag the Houjin army in front of him until the evening. Therefore, the current Wu Shigong is particularly afraid that the Houjin army in front of him will bypass his own army.

But what made Wu Shigong strange was that after the arrival of the Houjin army in front of him, he didn't make any moves, and just kept confronting him. Wu Shigong looked forward to it in his heart: "The two sides will continue to confront each other like this." ”
