Chapter 270, Arrangement
In this school examination, Luo Ji may just ask casually, but Zhou Yi became serious all of a sudden, only to see him ponder for a while and then slowly speak, "Leader, my subordinates think that in this siege battle, the other party's purpose should be two. ”
"Go on." Luo Ji had a noncommittal expression.
In this regard, Zhou Yi is quite calm, after all, he is still a centurion and a person who has been on the battlefield, this calmness is still there, "The first purpose should be to test the deployment of troops in Songhe City and the strength of the troops defending the city, Songhe City is an important hub connecting the iron triangle, if it can be directly attacked, it is naturally the best, if it can't be attacked, confirm the information first, it is also conducive to the siege war later." ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Yi breathed a sigh of relief, and then spoke again, "And the second purpose should be to prevent us from easily capturing Songshan City, once Songshan City falls, we will be equivalent to having no worries, and after a little adjustment, we can directly send troops towards Shangyuan City, which is obviously not what Zhou Dongnan wants to see, so the purpose of his doing this is to tell us that his army has been pressurized, if we dare to send troops to attack Songshan City, then Songhe City will inevitably be captured by him, He's trying to keep us at bay in this way. ”
After speaking, Zhou Yi's eyes fell on Luo Ji's face, as if he was seeking recognition, or something else......
And Luo Ji, who felt this gaze, tilted his head, "What else?" ”
"And?" Zhou Yi's expression was stunned for a moment, but Luo Ji's expression and tone made him clearly realize that his thoughts were not thorough enough, and Zhou Yi couldn't help but fall into contemplation again when he thought of this.
Seeing this, Luo Ji chuckled, and then thought slowly with him, not that Zhou Yi was stupid, but because he had not yet broken away from his previous identity and situation.
There is an old saying that is good, not in his position, not in his politics, Zhou Yi was originally a small soldier, and the highest military rank was promoted to a centurion, but no matter whether it is a small soldier or a centurion, according to his original situation, there is no room for him to interfere in things like this kind of marching and fighting, tactical layout, and over time, he will naturally not think about these things again.
And what Luo Ji is doing now is to tell him to think about what he needs to do when he is in a war and sits in the command position is to look at the overall situation, but Zhou Yi's analysis just now is limited to the war in front of him, and Luo Ji wants him to think further.
Zhou Yi's talent was placed there, and under Luo Ji's guidance, he pondered for a while, and the whole person quickly reacted, "Songshan City? Could it be that Zhou Dongnan is transferring troops to Songshan City?! ”
"Nine times out of ten." Luo Ji responded calmly.
"But, but that will take at least five days, and if it is a large-scale troop transfer, I am afraid it will take even longer!"
"So didn't he send troops to buy time for Matsuyama Castle? And the battle is not small......" As he spoke, Luo Ji squinted his eyes, only to see two towers appear in their sight in the enemy army formation in the distance.
Zhou Yi, who saw this scene, was shocked, "That's, siege tower!?" ”
As a siege machine, the siege tower can be much more expensive than the siege vehicle, and it is more time-consuming and laborious to manufacture, the height of each siege tower needs to be basically level with the city wall, and then a large number of soldiers will hide in the tower, and when the soldiers outside push the siege tower in front of the enemy wall, the soldiers hiding in the tower will rush out to capture the city wall in one breath.
At the same time, these two siege towers were obviously one of the killer features in the hands of the southeast that week, and this time in order to scare Luo Ji, they were taken out directly.
And that's not all, after a closer look, Luo Ji also found that there was also a special army carrying a ladder, which was the kind of soldier who rushed to the outside of the city wall, and then set up a ladder on the periphery to climb up, and the advantage of the ladder is obviously that it is cheap, and it is one of the instruments that win by quantity, after all, the siege tower is such a large equipment, just by looking at it, you can know how high the cost is.
I have to say that this has come and gone, and the threat index of the opponent's siege troops has really risen all the way, which makes Luo Ji, who is standing on the wall, feel a lot of pressure, and at the same time, he feels the heritage of the old players of the bronze rank.
"See this battle? That week, Dongnan didn't plan to let me have the spare strength to attack Songshan City, let alone that it was still a mountain city with rugged terrain and difficult to walk, and it was a question whether the siege equipment could be pushed up with that kind of terrain, in other words, if you want to capture Songshan City, you may have to rely on troops to fight. ”
"Under this premise, if the other party is bent on defending the city wall, we want to capture it, just relying on the strength of the troops stationed in the eastern border city is estimated to be very hanging, not to mention that the troops of the eastern border city cannot all be transferred, and we have to leave five hundred troops to garrison the city, in this case, unless I transfer the troops of Songhe City, but you have also seen the situation on the side of Songhe City, the opposite side is a large army pressing the border, once this city is taken back by Zhou Dongnan, you should know what it means, right?"
Of course, Zhou Yi knew what that meant, once Songhe City was recaptured, the one who only occupied the Eastern Realm City would be instantly attacked by both Songhe City and Songshan City! All of a sudden, the situation can become very bad.
"However, if we don't capture Songshan City before the other party's reinforcements arrive, and then as soon as the reinforcements arrive, the troops of Songshan City will take the initiative to attack, and we in Songhe City will still be attacked by the armies on both sides!"
"Not bad." Luo Ji nodded in agreement, and then changed his words, "So, he's waiting for reinforcements, and I'm also waiting for reinforcements." ”
It was only the vanguard led by Guo Jia and Guo Zhen who rushed to Eastern Territory City before, and his large army was still behind......
As he spoke, the siege troops outside the city had already sounded the horn of attack, looking at the bed crossbow launched in the enemy's formation, Luo Ji raised his hand and signaled the crossbowmen to start manipulating the three-bow bed crossbow he placed on the city wall to snipe at the opponent.
A tentative outpost battle, but Luo Ji fought extremely seriously and pressed step by step, because he knew very well that once he showed weakness, the other party would directly attack the city with all his might, after all, there were two siege towers, with bed crossbows, ladders, siege vehicles and other siege equipment, the strength of this siege force was still quite strong, coupled with the advantage of troops, according to his current strength in defending the city, he really fought with all his strength, and it was estimated that it was hanging.
So at this time, you can't show weakness, you must fight strongly, so that the other party can't figure out your reality and reality, so as to scare the other side back, but now it's not too late.
The update is sent, thank you for the monthly passes of "Right Thing", "Lonely Night", and "Don't Give Up My Medicine"!
