These sharp weapons to defend the city are enough to inflict huge casualties on the displaced people.

At least, in the eyes of those who truly understand, although there are many displaced people outside, there is almost no possibility of capturing Longshan. The only chance is for the inside and the outside to join forces and attack Kaecheng from the remnants of the Good Friends Association in the city. As long as this point is guarded and dragged on for ten days and a half months, as soon as the army of the county town arrives, the army of displaced people will disappear in an instant, and there will be no longer a threat.

For Longshan, which has so many means and no shortage of food, water sources and weapons, it seems that it is not difficult to defend it for half a month.

However, Chen Wu and Wang Huifang did not think so.

After the armies of the two sides converged and completed the siege of Longshan City, the Taiping Righteous Army and the Good Friends Association began to prepare for a formal alliance while arresting people everywhere and preparing to attack the city. Although it was only a symbolic ceremony, in order to show sincerity, the alliance was still very solemn, and the two sides invited the three He brothers, white-eyed thieves, black-bearded horse bandits, Haoqiang Li Dong and other leading figures to witness.

The leaders of both sides also burned incense and sacrificed to the heavens under their respective escorts, and made an alliance with blood.

Although I am not interested in this set, I can't miss a step out of courtesy. Chen Wu drank blood and wine, and called each other brothers Wang Huifang, the leader of the Good Friends Association, who was supposed to meet for the first time but had heard about it on the game forum. This claim was called, regardless of what the people on both sides thought in their hearts, at least on the surface, the atmosphere became warm.

Chen Wu and Wang Huifang then held a banquet on the spot to celebrate the formal alliance between the Taiping Rebels and the Good Friends Association.

The so-called drinking is actually just a pretext. Chen Wu knew that what Wang Huifang really cared about was to take this opportunity to ask Chen Wu about the way he had said that he could completely annihilate the Wu'an Garrison Brigade.

If this method was not reliable, or if Chen Wu boasted about it casually, then Wang Huifang would not really give up the most valuable Dongcheng to Chen Wu. The covenant just now, with a character like Wang Huifang, how could he really take it to heart? It's nothing more than mentioning it when it's useful, and just using it as toilet paper when it's not useful.

As for how to break through Long Mountain, this plan, which is difficult to complete in the eyes of outsiders, is not difficult in the eyes of the two, and they are not even mentioned in unison. Perhaps without the intervention of the Good Friends Association, Chen Wu would have to think about it a lot. But now, the key has been to how to deal with Wu'an's army.

"Of course, there is a way."

Knowing that Wang Huifang was not gullible, Chen Wu said unhurriedly: "Since ancient times, if you want to defeat the strong with the weak, it is nothing more than the right time, the right place, and the right people. Now, the Empire is preparing for the Battle of the Tile Thorns, and the army is gathering in the northwest. According to the habit of the tile spurs in previous years, there will be no fighting until October. For us, it's the right time. But only the time was not enough to deal with the garrison brigade of the county seat Wu'an. Therefore, it is necessary to find a way to take advantage of the geographical advantage. ”

"You mean ......"

Wang Huifang probably knew what Chen Wu was thinking, but he couldn't be sure for a while.

"This method requires accurate intelligence. As long as the time of the officers and soldiers can be grasped well, there is still a great possibility of tempting them to be deceived. Of course, if there is a cooperation from the Good Friends Association, then the certainty will be even greater. Saying this, Chen Wu lowered his voice and concisely stated the key points of his plan.

Wang Huifang rubbed the wine glass in his hand and thought for a long time, and was finally convinced.

Soon, the Good Friends Association and Chen Wu's Taiping Rebels teamed up to release a large number of scouts and rushed to the surrounding county to find out the news of Wu'an's official army. Another group of reliable henchmen took the opportunity to quietly leave the camp with hammers, stone chisels and other tools. After the two groups left almost simultaneously, the Taiping Rebels and the Friends of the Good Friends rebelled and began a tentative assault on Long Son Province.

If you are short-sighted, you only think about the Longshan Mountain in front of you, and you don't need to be so troublesome if you want to break the city. The army attacked with all its might, and with the internal response of the Good Friends Association, it could naturally be captured in one fell swoop. But in Chen Wu's opinion, Longshan is already meat in the pot, and what he really wants to do is to take advantage of this to eat the reinforcements of Wu'an, the county seat.

To put it bluntly, the siege of Longshan was just a cover, and what Chen Wuzheng was preparing to do was to send reinforcements to the encirclement point before the crossing.

It is precisely because it is acting for the officers and soldiers that the intensity of this attack is very particular.

First of all, you can't really break through the city, otherwise most of the officers and soldiers of Wu'an will not come when they get the news; Secondly, it is necessary to put enough pressure on the Longshan government, so that they have the feeling that the situation is critical and the thief army can break through the city as long as they work harder, so that they will continue to urge the officials and troops of Wu'an to speed up.

Based on this idea, the Neiying of the Good Friends Association did not rush to open the city, but put a few fires here, and killed a few militia groups there, causing chaos in Longshan Mansion everywhere, but it would not really cause a fatal impact, so as to confuse the officials and soldiers. The rebels outside began to attack the city in a step-by-step manner, and adopted the most common method of the exiles attacking the city: driving the nearby people to fill the moat.

If you don't solve this first, it would be a fantasy to capture Longshan.

Although Longshan Mansion moved the people of nearby villages and towns into the city two days in advance, the time was urgent, coupled with the covert obstruction of the Good Friends Association, it was impossible to complete it after all. What's more, many people are not willing to leave their family property and go to the city; Or after listening to the slogan of the Taiping Righteous Army, I have a little fantasy about the Righteous Army, and I feel that the other party should not be difficult for the poor. In the end, these people, regardless of men, women, and children, were all captured by the rebels and the Good Friends Society, and nearly 2,000 people gathered before and after.

Among these poor people, many of the officials, soldiers, and militia groups at the head of Longshan City knew each other, and even simply relatives and neighbors.

At the same time, outside the range of the officer's bed crossbows, Chen Wu's rebels had already requisitioned a number of displaced people, and rushed to make a large number of sacks filled with sand and stones, piled up as high as a hill.

"Run down here, just fill in three sacks and you'll be safe!"

A large number of rebels held knives and guns, pointed to dozens of pounds of sacks next to them, drove these civilians near Longshan City and began to fill the river in batches.

Everyone knows that it is impossible for the officials and troops of Longshan City to leave it alone, and most of the people who filled the moat in the past may not be able to come back. But under the pressure of the rebels' swords and guns, they had no choice but to grit their teeth, pick up the sack and start running forward.

On the southern wall of Longshan City, there was an immediate commotion.

"The thieves have begun to fill the river!"

"Bed crossbows ready, shoot a few to deter them first."

"Don't do it, my uncle is inside!"

"Damn thief, he is so desperate and mad, driving the people of nearby Longshan to attack the city."

The officers and soldiers at the head of Longshan City were angry and helpless. In particular, those officers and soldiers who recognized their relatives and neighbors in the ranks were even more angry, but they still refused to attack. The bed crossbows that had been wound and the foot archers in the official army were also slow to open their bows. In such a moment's effort, he had already run most of the way in good health, and he saw that after a hundred and ten paces, he could throw the sack into the moat.

Due to the dry weather, the water depth of the Long Mountain moat is at best half that of previous years.

If you don't care about it and let these people of Longshan fill in the river, it will only take half a day at most, and you can fill in a road hard.

Mo Lun, the former deputy commander of the Longshan City Defense Battalion and the current supreme commander of the Longshan official army, witnessed this scene, although he was extremely resentful in his heart, he could only grit his teeth and give an attack order to the officers and soldiers at the head of the city: "Listen, even if they are the people of Longshan, they are now helping the thieves to attack the city." Think about the people in the city, who don't want to become thieves, just beat me hard, don't have compassion! Otherwise, military justice will deal with it! ”

Mo Lun's order made the officials and soldiers of Longshan make up their minds.

Accompanied by a group of foot archers, they were the first to shoot the two Longshan people who were running forward, and the four bed crossbows arranged at the head of the city also released their brackets and began to shoot at the angles that had been adjusted long ago. These bed crossbows shoot more javelins than arrows. The huge body of the spear had a terrifying penetrating force under the push of the bowstring and its own gravity. Not to mention leather armor, even if it is the chain mail worn by Chen Wu and the others, the one in them will die.

As if in the blink of an eye, the four bed crossbows shot twelve javelin-like arrows, scraping out cruel blood flowers among the people of Longshan who filled the river.
