After leaving for two days, the Flying God King finally brought all the siege equipment and grain and grass and began to rush back. In the past two days, the city outside Shuining County has been very lively.
On the second day of the siege of the county seat, a group of people from the Yellow Turban Army came out to fight at the east gate, and scolded the army in the city from time to time, which made the heads of the major guilds in the city angry.
Then the Holy Horse Invincible of the Iron Cavalry led 10,000 city defenders to attack and rush out of the south gate, and a fierce rush and killing suddenly made those unlucky yellow turban recruits at the south gate chaotic. Although most of these Yellow Turban Corps have been upgraded to the second or third order after fierce battles along the way, their military discipline and combat quality are basically zero.
However, it is impossible for these 10,000 city defenders to quickly rush out from the hundreds of thousands of Yellow Turban Army, which has the factor that the Holy Knight Invincible did not intend to rush out, and also has the effect of the Yellow Turban Army struggling to block it. Although the strength of these Yellow Turban Army is not good and the military discipline is lax, they are all not afraid of death. What's more, they are only facing an enemy army of 10,000 people, relying on hundreds of thousands of troops on their side, and there is no reason to be afraid.
Soon, Zhang Junshi got the news that the camp was attacked at the south gate, and immediately mobilized tens of thousands of Yellow Turban elites to pounce on it, but the imperial court camp had already prepared, and when the Yellow Turban elites moved rapidly to the south gate, someone on the city wall immediately raised a flag, and the Holy Knight Invincible soon learned the news. After taking the time and rushing to kill, he immediately turned around and rushed back towards the city gate.
By the time the Yellow Turban elite rushed to the south gate, the city gate had already been closed. After insulting the city, the Yellow Turbans returned to the East Gate again. This is also the order of Zhang Junshi.
"Strategist. What exactly do these court traitors want to do? In the Chinese military tent of the Yellow Turban Battalion, a military general asked Zhang Junshi.
Zhang Junshi frowned and said, "They are doing this, either they want to destroy our living force, or they are cultivating the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark. ”
The military general was puzzled and said, "What is the explanation?" ”
Zhang Junshi said: "They annihilated our recruits with superior forces as much as possible with minimal losses, and during the siege war, we did not have these recruits as cannon fodder to consume the opponent's city defense materials." If you directly let the elite legion attack the city, the loss will also be very large, and it is not easy to train the elite legion. It's hard to make up for a little loss. …… If they want to repair the plank road in the open and Chen Cang in the dark, it is nothing more than self-help and foreign aid. When the young division transports the city defense weapons to the city, it will not be difficult to break through this Shuining County. But now these court traitors don't want to do this, they don't want to give up this great city yet. As a result, they may be hurrying up to prepare some weapons in the city or waiting for reinforcements. ”
Another military general said: "In case the imperial court sends reinforcements." Are we not enemies on both sides? ”
Zhang Junshi said: "It is impossible for the imperial court to send reinforcements over. The only people who can come to the rescue are the Inhuman forces, although there are many of them, but they are like a plate of scattered sand, and they are extremely profitable, as long as we show enough strength to make them fearful, not many people will rush to the rescue. Our division has already set up secret posts everywhere, and as long as the enemy is approaching, we can know it in advance and destroy it in one fell swoop. ”
In fact, Zhang Junshi had a worry in his heart but did not say it. That was the power of Baiyun City, the Flying God King led his troops to attack Wangtian City, and the whole army was wiped out. The Flying God King was worried that the exposure of this matter would affect the morale of the army, so he did not make a public announcement, and only told Zhang Junshi about the matter.
Now Zhang Junshi is worried that if the terrifying heavy cavalry of Baiyun City attacks, how many variables will it add to this war? Therefore, Zhang Junshi did not dare to divide his troops to defend the four gates, but concentrated the elite troops in camp, and then arranged them tightly around to prevent the opponent's heavy cavalry from raiding.
The military general who asked at the beginning said, "Strategist, according to what you said." If the court traitors in the city harass again, what should we do? Can we just watch them kill and then return to the city unscathed? ”
Zhang Junshi sneered: "Don't worry! This military division has its own arrangement, which will make them break their teeth! …… However, now that our army is running out of food and grass, it is difficult to determine the time for the return of the young master. So we had to figure it out for ourselves. ”
The military general laughed and said: "What's so difficult about this, within a hundred miles around Shuining County." There are at least hundreds of more townships. As long as we send men and horses to plunder, won't we have endless food? ”
Zhang Junshi said: "Now those strangers who are standing in the imperial court camp are also very smart, and they are all defending together, and there is not much food in the towns and villages outside the defense circle, and they are also afraid that we will rob them." And with our current situation, we can't mobilize too many troops to attack those stronger Inhuman guilds. ”
"Aren't there still a lot of neutral townships? Those people are not strong. This time, the general's head spun quickly, and he suddenly had a new idea.
Zhang Junshi said: "The current situation is not completely favorable to us, and it is not appropriate to make too many enemies. However, although it cannot be forcibly plundered, it is still possible to coerce by force, as long as it is not too excessive, I believe that those neutral towns and villages are still aware of current affairs. When you go to collect grain and grass, try not to bring elite soldiers, just let the Yellow Turban recruits or Inhumans go. ”
……
Yang Tian, who was cultivating his internal skills in Tongtian Pavilion, was woken up by Wang Lao in a hurry, and said, "Lord, Feng Yi has sent news that the Flying God King has set off from the Yellow Turban Cottage, with nearly 20,000 soldiers and soldiers, and 10,000 laborers with a large amount of baggage, grain and grass. It has been determined that the Flying God King is in this Yellow Turban Army. ”
"Grain and grass?" Yang Tian was shocked and said secretly: Why did you forget this stubble? Now that the Yellow Turban Army is besieging Shuining County with an army of nearly one million, the daily consumption of grain and grass will be an astronomical amount! In order to besiege the city, it was impossible for them to send troops to loot everywhere on a large scale, and they could only rely on fixed channels for supply. Moreover, in the current world, there are continuous disasters and famines, and the fixed channel of the Yellow Turban Army can only be transported from the Yellow Turban cottage. As for how much food is stored in the cottage, it is difficult to say.
Yang Tiandao: "Then where is this Yellow Turban Army now?" ”
Wang Lao said: "Because the Yellow Turban Cottage is heavily guarded, Feng Yi and the others are worried about being discovered, so they did not approach the Yellow Turban Cottage. When they discovered the army of the Flying God King, it was already thirty kilometers away from the Yellow Turban Cottage. ”
Yang Tian nodded. If you want to intercept the team of the Flying God King. At least a day's delay. If you can put a tail behind the Yellow Turban Army, it is difficult to guarantee that the Flying God King will not put an eye outside his city. When the time comes, as soon as he leaves the city, after the Flying God King gets the news, he will play hide and seek with him all over the world, and he doesn't know how much time he will waste.
The key is that Yang Tian can't afford to waste it now, more than forty days have passed in the time of the world-class prestige mission, and the difficult bones have just begun, which makes Yang Tian very relieved. At present, this matter is much more important to Yang Tian than dealing with the Yellow Turban Army.
How Yang Tian wishes to have a more reliable military advisor now, so that he can come up with ideas for himself. Although Wang Lao is also resourceful. But his wisdom is mainly reflected in politics, like this kind of military planning, Wang Lao is not as good as himself.
Yang Tian thought for a while and asked, "Then how many baggage trucks does the other party have?" How much food is estimated to be delivered? ”
Wang Lao said: "There are about more than 10,000 cars. As for whether the car was full of food, Feng Yi didn't know. ”
Yang Tianyan calculated to himself, this baggage cart can also be made in the carpentry workshop of Baiyun City, and most of them are pulled by oxen. Each vehicle can carry about seven or eight hundred kilograms of cargo. And there are about 8,000 truckloads of grain in these more than 10,000 carts, that is, six or seven million kilograms of grain. It sounds like a huge number, but it's only enough for a million army to consume for two or three days. Yang Tian estimated that this might be all the inventory of the Yellow Turban Cottage, otherwise it would be impossible for the Flying God King to bring out only these grains.
If the Flying God King were to think about food for those Yellow Turban recruits and Yellow Turban players, he would inevitably find a way to loot from other territories. If you don't care about the lives of the Yellow Turban recruits and players, these people will also go to the surrounding territory to loot on their own under the pressure of survival in order to get food.
This gave Yang Tian an opportunity. He asked, "How many wildebeest archers are there in our territory now?" ”
Wang Lao said: "There are more than four hundred horses, all of which are seventh-order strength. ”
"That's good, transfer four generals and handsome generals, each lead a hundred horses, and keep an eye on the Yellow Turban Army outside Shuining County, if they send troops to rob grain and grass, they will destroy it for me, and if the other party has too many numbers to eliminate, then harass. Anyway, you can't let the other party grab the food lightly. If you encounter an enemy sentry on the way, unplug it for me. Yang Tian commanded.
"Yes! Lord! As soon as Elder Wang spoke, he turned around and left.
"Wait a minute!" Yang Tian stopped Elder Wang and said, "You have passed the news back from Feng Yi to several big guilds in Shuining County, I believe that they will not let the Flying God King rush to the county seat so smoothly." ”
Elder Wang immediately understood. With a chuckle, he left Tsutenkaku.
……
After Wang Lao left. Yang Tian saw that the sky was already bright, so he got up and walked out of the Tongtian Pavilion. Thinking about it, Pei Yuanshao has been in prison for three days, and I don't know if he has figured it out now.
Yang Tian walked to the prison in Baiyun City, this prison is divided into two floors, the upper level is an ordinary prison, which imprisons some people in the territory who have committed adultery. The lower level is to hold some special prisoners, such as Pei Yuanshao, the historical military general who was captured this time.
This level of the prison was rebuilt after the system was updated, and the entire lower prison has only eighteen cells, which are independent of each other. Each cell is made of basalt walls, fences made of 100 steel, and the outermost gate is made of 100 steel. As for the jailers inside, they are all special catchers. Coupled with the effect of the prison itself, it is estimated that even if they are as strong as Lu Bu and Guan Yu, they will not want to escape if they are imprisoned in this prison.
Yang Tian came to the gate and knocked lightly three times, and someone inside shouted, "What kind of wind is blowing today?" ”
"Breeze on both sleeves." Yang Tian said lightly.
Then I heard a "zaza" sound, and the huge steel gate slowly rose. Yang Tian walked in quickly, and the gate slowly fell again.
"My subordinate Anno has seen the city lord." A man dressed in fast-catching clothes saw Yang Tian and bowed down.
Yang Tian waved his hand, let him get up and said, "Then Pei Yuanshao is still as hard-mouthed as he was at the beginning?" ”
Anno said: "Now he is not stubborn, but he still does not want to surrender. ”
Yang Tian frowned and said, "Have you used the Escape Chair?" ”
Anno said: "Without the orders of the city lord, the subordinates dare not advocate without permission." ”
Yang Tian nodded and said, "Take me to see, if you don't want to surrender again, let him try the effect of the Easy Chair!" ”
"Subordinates obey!" Anno answered, and walked to the front to lead the way.
There were a few catchers along the way, and when they saw Yang Tianhou, they all saluted, and Yang Tian couldn't call the names of these people, just nodded and motioned for them to continue on duty. Although only one prisoner is imprisoned here, good habits must be cultivated from the beginning, and Yang Tian does not seem to let them relax because of this. (To be continued)
