When the battle of Nancheng began, the Dongcheng side was not idle, but started attacking at the same time. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Unlike the South Gate, the East Gate does not have the BUG-like existence of Liu Ye, whether it is in terms of distance or accuracy, Shucheng can no longer take advantage. Even two months ago, Ling Cao of the East Gate often sent catapults to cover while building earth mountains, although he was still at a disadvantage, but he was not without the power to fight back, just from the number of lost catapults, it can be seen that without Liu Ye, even if there is an advantage in the city wall, the catapults in Shucheng cannot stop Liu Feng's siege.

Waves of people rushed up to the earth mountain, and fell in the chaos of flying rocks, which was not very big in the first place, and was gradually stained red with blood, exuding a disgusting smell of blood. But the soldiers on the battlefield didn't have time to think about this problem at all, but did what they had to do under the command of their respective commanders.

Aim, fix, move stones, pull ropes...... During the Three Kingdoms period, catapults were still very rudimentary. But this is a game, and even if someone knows how to build a more advanced catapult, they can't make it in the game. And for a catapult to deliver an effective attack, at least one or twenty people are needed.

As the so-called heavy sword without a blade is ingenious, don't look at the catapult is relatively simple, but even if it is hit by the gravel fired by the catapult, it is difficult to survive. Fortunately, the catapult is too large to hit an individual, and once it is hit, there will basically not even be a whole corpse.

……

It was getting dark, and both the offense and the defense were gradually weakening until it was over.

"Notify me as soon as the results are out." Liu Feng, who had been watching the battle in the rear for a day, said to Xun You beside him, and then he went to comfort the wounded - this is the only magic weapon to win the hearts of the army and the people.

"Lord, the statistics are out." An hour later, as soon as Liu Feng came back from condolences, Xun You greeted him.

"Let's talk about it!" Liu Feng looked at Xun You's face and knew that the situation was not too good.

"Of the 121 catapults in Nancheng, 67 were damaged, and more than 3,000 soldiers were killed." Xun You reported.

"Shhh Liu Feng took a breath of cold air, not to mention the soldiers who died for the time being, he had not experienced such a big loss in the previous war, but the loss of more than fifty percent of the catapults made him feel a little cold.

Small catapults, each costing thousands of gold, can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of losses. It's just the loss of money, the key is that in Liu Feng's hands, there are more than 1,000 trebuchets in total, although more than eighty percent of them have been transported here, but if they have been lost like today, they won't be able to hold on for half a month. Because the data Xun You said does not include the East Gate.

"What about the east?" Liu Feng motioned for Xun You to continue.

"The east side is better, with only 23 losses and less than a thousand killed." Xun You said.

"That is, today in one day, we lost 90 catapults, as well as nearly 5,000 killed, and the wounded are not yet among them." Liu Feng looked at Xun You.

"Yes, there are less than two thousand wounded, most of them are lightly wounded, and they can continue to fight, but there are two or three hundred seriously wounded, and they must be retired after treatment." Xun You said.

"The result? Is there an approximate figure? Liu Feng asked.

"It is impossible to estimate for the time being, but it is certain that the losses of the other side are definitely much less than ours." Xun You shook his head.

"So, Gongda, tell me, we have a total of about 1,000 small catapults, and nearly 30% have been damaged so far, even if we add more than 100 medium-sized catapults, can we break Shucheng and take Liu Xun?" Liu Feng asked.

"Why should the lord be discouraged, his subordinates already have a way to reduce their losses." Xun You said confidently.

"Will you get out of the plan?" Liu Feng dragged a sentence.

"After the previous temptation and today's siege, the subordinates can almost conclude that the people who command the catapults in the south of Shu County cannot take care of them. We can take advantage of this, focused attacks. Xun You said, "Our forces are not enough to besiege the four gates, but if the other party is at the south gate, then attack the eastern city with all our might, and vice versa, disrupting the enemy's plans." ”

"Strategist, can this be done? If you could, you could just go up earlier, and what kind of dirt mountain would you build! Liu Feng was puzzled.

"My lord, earlier my subordinates could not determine the true strength of the enemy, and they were worried that the other party had a conspiracy. But now it basically doesn't exist, with Liu Xun's character, if the other party has the ability to command both sides at the same time, he will never let go of today's opportunity. Xun You explained, "It is necessary to build an earth mountain, which is the best way for us to balance the advantages of the enemy's city walls." Otherwise, even if the enemy can only control one side, it will be impossible for our catapults to reach the attack range. ”

"And so far, two months after the outbreak of the war, according to the speculation of his subordinates, there are not many stones available in the city, once the stone is lacking, the houses of the people must be demolished, and the morale in the city will naturally decline, and the law and order will be chaotic, Liu Xun is not a person who can calm down, as long as he has the idea of a quick victory, he may be able to create favorable opportunities for us."

"Then let's follow the strategy of the military advisor!" Liu Feng pondered for a while and nodded in agreement.

……

"Ziyang, you did a good job today, and when the Jiangdong Army is defeated, Ben Taishou will not hesitate to reward you." In the Taishou Mansion in the city, Liu Xun also received a casualty report.

"Lord Fujun has an overreputation, this is the duty of the subordinates." Liu Ye's face didn't show any surprise, "But please note that the enemy can already pose a threat to the city wall, especially Dongcheng, it is not easy to suppress the other party......"

"You can solve this problem, don't run more on both sides." Liu Xun rudely interrupted Liu Ye, "Shucheng has been besieged for two months, and it stands to reason that the enemy's morale has been discharged, and the enemy's trebuchet that is destroyed is the time to go out of the city for a decisive battle." ”

Liu Xun stood up and looked at the civil and military forces in the hall: "Now that Your Majesty is fighting on all sides, the enemies on the other three sides are far above us, Your Majesty asks us to defeat the enemy army as soon as possible, and then send troops to help, we don't have much time." ”

"But, Lord Fujun, our army is not as numerous as the enemy, and it is nearly a million ......," said a man dressed as a scribe.

"This is not a reason, but if it weren't for His Majesty's soft-heartedness, he would have sent a large army to sweep Jiangdong a long time ago, how could he still be rampant." Liu Xun forcibly interjected again, "Even if he has hidden his strength over the years, how can a group of rabble who have not experienced war fight against our army." Besides, they are still on an expedition across the river, the supply line is very long, and the rear may not be stable, if they can't win the battle, what face do they have to repay Your Majesty's kindness. ”

"According to your plan, it has been delayed for two months, and it is almost over, so let's work together to defeat the enemy as soon as possible. When the time comes, His Majesty's problem will be solved, and under the great joy of Long Yan, it will be no problem to worship the marquis. ”

"Obey the orders of your lords, and dare not die." Everyone replied that they had fallen into the lust of being promoted and getting rich.

There are not many people who can stay sober, Liu Ye is one of them, seeing Liu Xun like this, he rationally stopped wanting to say that the stones in the city were exhausted, and was silent, thinking in his heart how to shirk when Liu Xun asked.
