Chapter 363: Is It Difficult?

Everything has been decided, Lin Sen put down the book to rest, may be the reason why he has not read much since he was a child, he likes to read books in the game, and he reads all the words of a hundred schools, but he doesn't do research, just read it, especially like those ancient books of the art of war, every time he goes out, he will habitually bring some books, which are used to pass the time in his spare time, fortunately, these books are written in the vernacular, otherwise he really can't read it.

Early in the morning, everyone came to Lin Sen's camp again, and after some inquiry, they learned about the mountains and rivers in the vicinity, as well as the locations of other forces except for the peak rise and the three realms, in the southeast of them, there were more than a dozen cities, but most of them were small cities.

"In the absence of anyone else participating in the war, the attack of one city after another depends only on whether the strength of the three of you can capture it."

Seeing that everyone had bitter faces, Lin Sen knew the answer and continued to ask, "How many soldiers and horses do you have?" How much siege equipment can be raised? Let's talk about real numbers, don't talk about imaginary ones. ”

The three of them did the math and said a few numbers: "There are 100,000 soldiers and horses, and the siege equipment is only catapults, ballistas, and ladders, and there are 100 catapults and ballistae, and there are many ladders." ”

"How much oil do you have?"

One point that needs to be emphasized is that since the oil has been taken seriously, the forces of all parties will spend a lot of merit to exchange it in every plot, and the oil has instantly become an invincible weapon in the defense of the city, so the siege war is extremely difficult to fight, and the loss is huge, until more and more people have raised their opinions to the game official later.

After a long period of research, the game's officials finally made a change, making the oil a restricted item. During the story period, the amount of oil released for each item update is greatly reduced, and the corresponding merits required are also greatly increased. In addition, the number of exchanges per person at a time is limited, causing fire oil to become a slur-after commodity. Especially for some forces that are relatively weak, it becomes the key to their ability to hold the city.

"There are not many reserves, Boss Lin, you also know the current situation of fire oil, and the reason why we can gain a foothold here is also thanks to fire oil, and the consumption is also very large."

It was similar to what Lin Sen expected: "Well, let's attack with fire in this battle, I brought some fire oil, and I will rest for a day today." Gather your hands to make rockets, and make more of them. ”

"Oh, why do you make so many rockets? It's a lot of fuel to make a rocket. ”

Lin Sen said: "My army is all cavalry, not good at attacking the city, can only block the enemy's reinforcements, the siege war mainly depends on you, you only have 100,000 people, can not withstand long-term attrition, so there is only one way to attack with fire." In addition, tomorrow you hand over the command of the army and let my generals command the siege, so that the army will have some attribute bonuses. ”

"Oh, oh, oh, that's it. Okay, let's go back and organize people to make rockets. ”

When leaving, Lin Sen didn't forget to say: "The cost of oil is high." It can be replaced with wine appropriately, and also. During the day, it's best to get me a map of Hongnong-gun, and try to be as detailed and accurate as possible. ”

Lin Sen took out 10,000 jars of fire oil from his bag. Not only is it used to make rockets, but most of it is reserved for siege purposes.

After sending them away, Lin Sen came back to gather the generals and said, "Junyi, the siege battles after tomorrow will all be under your command, first attack with fire, and then storm the city." ”

"The last general commands."

Lin Sen said again: "Zilong, Li Dao, Guo Yan, the three of you lead the cavalry to wander among the dozen or so cities, once the enemy moves troops out of the city, you must strike at them mercilessly, so that they can't come out of every city in a proper manner, understand?" ”

"The last will understand."

Lin Sen continued: "During the day, a detailed and accurate map will be sent, the three of you will study it, this is not our territory, the most important thing is to be careful, it may be hard, you will organize the team into some groups, this time you must block the enemy's reinforcements day and night, and prevent the enemy from moving troops at night." ”

After a day of preparation, all the arrows were processed into rockets, including spears and arrows for rockets, and the three of them also discussed a reasonable and relatively safe path.

All the equipment stopped, and the army went out of the city and headed south.

More than a dozen cities belong to five factions, and in the past, these forces also had business dealings with each other, and sometimes they would unite to deal with foreign enemies, but unfortunately this time they belonged to two hostile forces, and their lives were changeable, and no one could dominate them.

Entering the enemy's territory, Zhao Yun and the three led the cavalry to leave first, 200,000 people they took away 180,000, and Lin Sen left 20,000 white horse servants to participate in the siege as archers.

When the infantry came to the first city, Zhang Jaw commanded 100,000 infantry to surround both sides of the city, and through observation, it was found that the defending army was about 50,000, and after a short rest, he began to attack the city.

First, the catapults threw stones at the walls in order to interfere with the defensive arrangement of the walls, and after five rounds, a jar of oil was brought up, and next to each catapult and ballista stood a soldier with a torch.

"Put."

As soon as the shout fell, a jar of fire oil was placed on the catapult, and a rough twist was placed on it, and the soldiers next to it immediately lit it, and the catapult was thrown out, and in an instant, the altar shot quickly to the city wall, and then hit the wall and shattered, and the fire oil inside spilled out, and immediately burned when it encountered a trace of sparks.

The catapult attacked in one round, and then the ballista attacked, the distance had been adjusted, and the spear arrows had been lit, and they were shot indiscriminately, as long as they were shot at the place with fire oil on the city wall.

For the defenders who were not prepared at all, they could not defend against this kind of attack at all, not to mention the extremely flammable fire oil, the fire spread instantly, and the defenders were at a loss in a hurry, so they could only order the soldiers to go up to put out the fire, but the damage caused by this was greater, the fire oil stained the body, and it would burn when it touched a little spark, and the soldiers were contaminated with flames and fled in all directions, so that there were more places on fire, and the fire was more difficult to extinguish.

This is just a round of attacks, there are hundreds of jars of fire oil behind them, there is no pause, one round after another, one round of attacks, one altar of sparkling fire oil splashed on the city wall, not for a long time, ten rounds of shooting are completed, the city wall is covered with flames everywhere, you can see the defenders running around on the city wall, dodging those raging fires, it is already a mess.

"Jun Yi, the Yulin Divine Guard and the Wild Thunder Daoist led by Dian Wei and Zhang Yu are temporarily under your control, and the two of them are also at your disposal." Lin Sen stood behind and watched the front go very well, so he walked forward.

"Thank you, lord, please supervise the army here, and the general will be able to take the city in half an hour."

Zhang Jaw saluted Lin Sen, and then said, "General Dian Wei and General Zhang Yu, please come with me." ”

Lin Sen instantly understood the intention of opening his jaw, not only did not stop the siege, but also increased the intensity, but this time it was a mixture of stones and fire oil to shoot together, and the army was also pressing forward step by step, making a posture of attacking.

Seeing this situation, the defenders on the city wall were very anxious, and there was a great chaos on the city wall at present, and if the enemy took the opportunity to attack, they could not stop it, so they had no choice but to continue to mobilize troops from the two city walls in the southeast.

Now the focus of the defenders in the city has been completely shifted to the two city walls in the northwest, and the defenders are all inclined to these two city walls, and the city walls on the southeast side, which were originally less than 10,000 people defending, were instantly transferred away by 90 percent, and only a thousand people were left to defend, and it was the time of emptiness.

In this way, it was very convenient for Zhang Jaw's plan, he brought all the elite soldiers, quietly came to the east of the city, saw that there were not many defenders on the city wall, and immediately launched an attack, Yulin Shenwei killed the defenders on the city wall with a crossbow, and caught the defenders off guard.

Another part of the soldiers carried the ladder to the city wall, Zhang Jaw, Dian Wei and Zhang Yu took the lead in the city, changed several ladders in a row, the three of them finally climbed the city wall one after another, and then waved the weapons in their hands to slaughter the defenders, and then the people behind successively climbed the city wall, and soon the defenders on the city wall were killed, everyone came to the city gate, opened the city gate, and the people who did not climb the city wall outside also entered the city.

"Hurry up and go back and report to the lord." Zhang Jaw explained that one person went back to report the news, and he and Dian Wei and Zhang Yu led the army to kill the city lord's mansion, which should be a place to hoard wealth in the city, and it needs to be controlled first.

"Good, good." After Lin Sen heard the report, he applauded again and again, and said, "Go and order the army to withdraw, stop the attack, and we will go to Dongcheng." ”

"Boss Lin, is the city captured like this?"

Looking at them, Lin Sen smiled and said, "Is it difficult?" It's just a city. ”

Everyone looked at Lin Sen's indifferent smile, and their hearts were full of emotions, for them, an impregnable city was captured by Lin Sen so easily, so that their army was almost useless, and the gap was too big.

Everyone thought about the fire oil in that altar again, not only in terms of combat power, but also in financial strength.

In this way, a city was captured in an hour and a half, and the defenders in the city were all wiped out except for some players who ran away from seeing the situation was not good, in fact, even if they wanted to, they couldn't run, don't forget that Zhao Yun and the three of them were leading the cavalry to wander in this large area.

"Without further ado, while it's still early, let's go to the next city, and you take someone to stay and occupy the city and settle the wealth in the city." ……
