Chapter 316: Siege

Dingzhou is one of the nineteen states of the Great Zhou Dynasty, which is divided into seven counties: Rinan, Zhuwu, Jiude, Pingshan, Dingyuan, Chufeng, and Nanfeng!

Since the rebellion of Huang Ji and the beginning of the troubled times, the states and counties have gradually lost control, the displaced people have rebelled, the feudal towns have risen, and dragons and snakes have emerged one after another. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

Previously, Dinghou ruled Dingyuan County, and Qi Lin ruled Pingshan County, which was a famous feudal town in Dingzhou.

But now, their limelight is overshadowed by the prestige of Wu Pheasant, the envoy of the Nanfeng Army.

No matter how outsiders slander her, it is extremely incredible that this woman is a woman who brazenly embarks on the road to hegemony in the world, and even dominates the two counties.

And in the sixth year of peace, after sacrificing to the heavens and praying for rain, and obtaining the mandate of heaven, he brazenly counted the ten major crimes of Dingyuan County and Dinghou, and sent a large army of 20,000 to fight!

For a while, there was a lot of turmoil in Dingzhou, and even many eyes from all over the world noticed here.

Pingshi County.

The two counties of Chufeng and Nanfeng are in the south of Dingzhou, and there is still a Ninan County separated from Dingyuan County.

In the county seat, the county honor, the county lord, and the county lieutenant are in armor, looking at the dense below, tens of thousands of troops, all of them are weak.

"Wait and listen, our army is only to use the road to crusade against Dingyuan, open the city gate at this time, it is not too late, my lord is merciful, promise not to commit any offense, otherwise it will be too late to regret it, don't say it is unpredictable!"

Below, a few riders were still shouting.

"Nonsense!"

Huang Ziping, the county commander on the city wall, was so angry that his face turned red: "What a big courage, she Wu Pheasant steals two counties, and the court does not send troops to attack, it is already a fluke, and now she dares to provoke and attack my court and county, she wants to rebel?" ”

When these words were spoken, the officials below all looked at each other: Aren't people rebelling?

Fifty years ago, or even twenty years ago, this was a major event that shocked the world, but now, it really doesn't matter.

The concept of being strong and strong in troubled times has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and now the reason why they are still standing here is not because they have the responsibility of guarding the city, but because their families are old and young, and the ancestral mansion is still in the city, that's all.

"Give you a day to think about it, and I'll just borrow the road!"

The cavalry generals below whistled away, and the three armies roared like a mountain, which shocked the faces of the hundred officials on the city wall.

"County Honor...... It's just a ......"

The official hesitated and said: "The envoy of the Nanfeng Army Festival, there is nothing to say and believe...... Maybe ......"

"Confused!"

The county lord immediately blew his beard and glared, and glanced at the county man behind this official, knowing that it must be the instruction of this person, and it is also the meaning of some families in the city.

The martial arts family is a county wang, and he said before that he couldn't still have contact with these big families, but Qiu Wuwu can really do it.

They only want to save their own lives, and naturally they will not care about the consequences of losing the city of his county commander.

"You can't borrow it!"

Huang Ziping set the tone, whoever believes in Nan Fengjun's promise is a fool! As soon as the army enters the city, can it still turn the sky upside down? How to handle it has become people's arbitrary.

He can be a county respect, and he also has a certain talent, and said loudly: "Dinghou is canonized by the imperial court, two generations of governance, known as a clear name, the court and the state pastor will not sit idly by, I have received a three-hundred-mile urgent document from the county, the court has delegated power, ordered to assassinate the history of the state soldiers, as long as it lasts for three days, the county reinforcements can arrive, insist on January, the state army gathers, will be able to repulse the siege, and can also steal the throne, the daughter of the chicken Sichen to take down the guilt!" ”

"Three days?!"

To tell the truth, even if the martial arts family is a county leader, there are many people who are not very optimistic about Wu Pheasant now, even if they are big families in the county, they are not the same heart.

Especially now, when he heard that the county soldiers would come to help him three days later, and that the imperial army would arrive a month later, the officials who spoke out suddenly turned pale.

But the county Cheng looked at the nose and the nose, and looked like he had nothing to do with himself, which made Huang Ziping scold the old fox in his heart.

At this time, he didn't care about him, and asked the county lieutenant Xiang Fu directly: "How many soldiers are there in my county?" ”

The county lieutenant is in charge of the military power, even though Xiang Fu walked the road before Wenlu, at this time there was also a little anger on his face: "There are eight hundred soldiers in the county, fully armed, and in addition, there are five hundred village warriors!" Swear to fight the thief to the end! ”

This Xiang Yong is actually Xiang Fu's own strength, and when he took it out at this time, it surprised the others.

"Good! That's 1,300 soldiers! ”

Huang Ziping was overjoyed: "Lord Xiang is really a loyal minister of the imperial court!" ”

He doesn't care whether this revenge is a person from Dinghou, a person from the state, or a diehard loyalist who is stupid to read, as long as the other party resolutely resists, it will be enough!

With this military power, he suddenly had confidence in his heart, and looked at the officials below: "More than 1,000 elite soldiers, swear to defend this Pingshi City for us, don't you have any expressions?" ”

Several family heads were shocked, and suddenly knew that if there was no bleeding at this time, this Huang Ziping would really dare to kill, and their faces were pale one by one, as if they were cutting meat: "We are willing to work for the army!" ”

Defending the city and fighting to the death, the consumption is huge, you have to use wine and meat every day, and all kinds of materials and medicinal materials cannot be left behind.

"Lao Jun?"

Huang Ziping said coldly: "It's not enough! The warriors in the Quartet Township still know how to help defend the city, is your loyalty not as good as that of the mountain and wild horsemen? ”

"I'm willing to help!"

Hearing this, the others had no choice but to agree on how many strong men they would make, and then the matter was finally revealed.

……

"Uncle! I'm afraid it won't work! ”

As soon as he got off the city wall, a person behind the county said: "No matter how elite the county soldiers and state soldiers are, if they don't come today, they will not save the fire from far water!" ”

"That's the truth, but Lord Huang is quite loyal, what can you do?"

The county squinted his eyes: "Let's fight!" Let's fight! Wait until the first battle is over, and then make plans! ”

But he knew in his heart that the county order and the county lieutenant had reached an agreement, and unless the big families in the city were connected together, there would be no overwhelming power.

Unless the defenders suffer heavy losses under one attack, each family will be separated, and this is another opportunity.

……

On the second day, the siege began.

"Kill!"

The Nanfeng sergeant roared, holding his shield, pushing the earthen cart, and carrying the ladder, towards the city wall.

"In Pingshi County, there are capable people!"

This time the commander is Chen Jingzong, he got the help of Wu Ming, the secret disease is gone, at this time to restore the old view, for the real soldier family, it is the time to be high-spirited.

And he has made meritorious contributions many times, and now he has become a guerrilla general of the fifth grade, leading 5,000 people under his command.

Next to him is his nephew Chen Shuncheng, who is now the captain of Zhengqipin Zhiguo, the general of the first guard who leads 500 people.

The Nanfeng military system, everything is inherited from the past, but above the captain of Zhiguo, there is a captain of Zhengliupin Zhaowu, who leads a thousand people, and is called the commander.

Basically, it is five people and one army, two soldiers and one tithe, five tithes and one team, two teams and one battalion, five battalions and one guard, two guards and one capital, and five capitals and one army! The two-quintal system forms a large army, clear and discerning.

Only by being the master of an army, leading 5,000 people, and being a guerrilla general with five qualities, can he really reach the position of general, and he can be called the 'last general' in words, and the other captains are all 'lowly duties'.

Only the name and the instrument, can not be faked to others, as a dragon who is interested in the mixed yuan world, Wu Pheasant is still quite cautious in the beginning of the famous weapon.

Chen Jingzong pointed to the head of the city: "You see, for the three armies, the county lieutenant dares to set up the head of the city, and the soldiers at the bottom dare to risk arrows...... This is not easy, after you go down, you must remember this, and you must also be attentive to the soldiers, undress, and push the food...... In order to get the soldiers' death force! ”

This is what he estimated, with Wu Pheasant's temperament and the military and political system, they would definitely not be able to accommodate their uncles and nephews in the same army, and they would definitely have to be transferred out later.

Otherwise, this nephew will not want to be promoted for the rest of his life, and now he will naturally pass on his experience.

"Uncle, don't worry!"

Chen Shuncheng smiled: "I memorized this art of war when I was three years old!" ”

"Nonsense! Now in the army, you should be called a general! ”

Chen Jingzong's face was gloomy: "I will go to the military judge by myself and receive five whips!" ”

"Humble ...... Obedience! Checkmate! Chen Shuncheng's face froze, almost reddening, blocking the airway.

Chen Jingzong saw this scene, but he sighed secretly in his heart.

I heard the words and lust before, but my life was short.

But now that there are still a lot of days to live, it is natural to slowly sharpen this kid, and the jade will not be successful!

"Fate...... The soldiers retreated for the time being, the bow battalion suppressed, and the stone artillery team, step forward! ”

As soon as Chen Jingzong waved his hand, as soon as the offensive of the army stopped, and the arrows rained down like locusts, a team of artillery troops stepped forward.

Naturally, there are trebuchets in this world, but unlike ordinary trebuchets, this artillery army uses one more tool - a counterweight, and the important parts are also polished with metal, with a hideous taste.

This is a trebuchet designed by Chen Jingzong himself, which can be said to have reached the peak of cold weapons in terms of performance, and can throw hundreds of catties of boulders onto the city wall.

Unless gunpowder and Dao magic powers are developed, there is no other way in the battle array.

Since ancient times, weapons have not been separated, as a soldier heir, he naturally has accumulated several kinds of military heavy weapons on hand, this catapult is just the most basic.

If he was still a little selfish before, but after Wu Ming gave him medicine and cured his old troubles, he became 'the one who is a confidant dies'.

This is also normal, otherwise if he just pats his ass and leaves, everyone in the world will be ashamed of him, and there will be no lord who is willing to accept him anymore.

After all, they will all think, 'Martial Pheasant saved his life before, this person can still rebel, or don't do his best, what else can I win over?'" ’

Under this value, the blow to half-hearted people is almost fatal.

At this time, even if Chen Jingzong had any other thoughts in his heart, he had to bury them all and die for Wu Pheasant!

And Wu Pheasant was also unsuspicious of employing people, and was directly promoted to a guerrilla general, commanding an army of 5,000 and besieging Pingshi County.

"Get on the boulder!"

Hundreds of pounds of boulders were transported with rolling wood and pried to the side of the trebuchet.

"Fat!"

With Chen Jingzong's roar, the main shaft of the trebuchet let out an overwhelmed scream, and the counterweight fell fiercely, throwing the boulder on the other side.

Rumble!
