Just as Yang Tian was thinking about his harvest this time, a snow pigeon flew in and stopped on his shoulder.
Yang Tian opened it and saw that it was a letterhead sent by Huang Zhong, which said that they had successfully occupied Wanling County, the seat of Danyang County, and because their siege method was different from the siege that Yang Tian personally participated in. After besieging the city, he directly dispatched a large army to begin the siege of the city and forcibly advanced. The strength of the defenders of Wanling City was not stronger than that of Nanchang City, and under the strong attack of Lieyang and other legions, the defenders of Wanling were defeated and retreated.
However, the soldiers of Danyang are worthy of the name of elite, and their fierceness is by no means comparable to the other states and counties that Yang Tian has encountered at present, although the most left in Wanling County is the sixth-order soldiers, and there is no comparison with the soldiers at the peak of the eighth order. But in this case, they are still fighting to the death. Unless you are divided and surrounded, you will never surrender.
In fact, compared with the battle on the side of Yuzhang County, Huang Zhong and others surrounded Wanling earlier with an infantry, but it was precisely because of the fierce tactics of the army in Wanling City that it greatly delayed the advance of the army in Baiyun City. In Wanling City, Lieyang and the other three major legions fought with each other in street battles for nearly two days before they could be regarded as attacking the county guard. After that, things were simple, Huang Zhong and others quickly pushed down the city stele, and then occupied Wanling County.
Although the battle of Wanling City was over, and the results were brilliant, the enemy's more than 200,000 troops were completely annihilated except for more than 200,000 surrenders, and the Baiyun City side also paid nearly 200,000 casualties for this. Don't look at the huge disparity in this number, but the side of Baiyun City is a fierce soldier who can fight one against ten. Overall, Baiyun City's side suffered a little. After all, it is the besieging party, and it does not occupy an advantageous advantage, which is also a matter of no choice. If it weren't for the fact that Baiyun City had Huang Zhong, Chen Gong and other military generals and strategists, I am afraid that this casualty would have been even greater.
Yang Tian can also accept this result, after all, this is a war, how can it be possible without casualties? Occupy a county, not to mention 200,000 soldiers, even 2 million can be replenished. The only regret is that Huang Zhong and others occupied Wanling City a little later. It is not possible to mobilize city guards from Yizhou to defend the city. Because the reinforcements rushed back from Wu County were also about to arrive outside Wanling City. In this case, these main forces of Baiyun City may experience another fierce battle. Fortunately, from Huang Zhong's letter, Yang Tian knew that the Taishou of Danyang County was also killed in the county guard's mansion, without anyone organizing it. It's not easy to say what kind of combat power these Danyang soldiers can burst out.
……
That same evening. Yang Tian slept early. I didn't feel any pressure from the execution of a taishou. Of course, strictly speaking, this Taishou was not killed by him. Who poisoned him in the first place? As for who poisoned it, Yang Tian could also guess in his heart that there was a ** not far from ten, except for the possibility of suicide, only the player forces who had rescued Taishou, and only they had the opportunity to poison this Taishou.
Of course, it doesn't mean that this Taishou can't commit suicide, the premise is that this Taishou knows that he has been arrested, but from the beginning, Yang Tian slapped this guy unconscious, and until he woke up, he didn't face Yang Tian. And after he sobered up, he was out of an open place and was not detained, so he would not have thought that he had been charged, and in this case, he naturally had no need to commit suicide by taking poison.
As for why the player force poisoned this Taishou, Yang Tian could think of it even if he thought about it with his ass, it was nothing more than to control the Taishou, and it was equivalent to controlling the army under his command. Since the other party is poisoning, there is naturally an antidote, and in the case of threatening his life, the probability of compromise is very high.
Although he guessed that this Taishou was poisoned by the people of the player's power, Yang Tian didn't plan to reason with the other party, anyway, in Yang Tian's heart, he was already in a hostile relationship with the other party, and the other party couldn't use any means, so he just doubled it back when the time came.
In the early morning of the next day, Yang Tian woke up early, but in fact, he couldn't wake up! Because the more than one million troops of Yuzhang County were about to rush outside the city walls, nearly half of the soldiers in the city had now been mobilized to prepare for the battle to defend the city. Although Yang Tian had already made up his mind to surrender the other party, he couldn't ignore the defense of Nanchang City!
Soon, Yang Tian came to the south tower of Nanchang City, which was also the direction in which the reinforcements from Yuzhang County would appear. And when Yang Tian arrived here, Tai Shici, Hu Cong and others were already waiting here.
"Ziyi, when will the enemy army arrive?" After Yang Tian stood still, he asked Tai Shici.
After Tai Shici and the others saluted, they replied: "Lord Qiqi, at present, the enemy army is still dozens of kilometers away from Nanchang City, and it will take almost an hour to arrive. It's just that there is one thing that is very strange, as these enemy troops get closer and closer to Nanchang City, the two armies seem to be divided into several sections, and even the baggage is separated, is there something strange in this? ”
Yang Tian frowned slightly and asked, "When did this happen?" ”
"It should have started at noon yesterday, when the two armies were still in place for a while, and waited for a while before continuing to set off." Tai Shi Ci replied very dryly.
Yang Tian thought for a while and said, "If the other party comes outside the city and doesn't attack the city directly, let's hold our troops and see what the other party does." When the time comes, I'll send some Assassins who are proficient in the art of stealth to spy on them, and I should be rewarded. ”
Half an hour passed, and under the ardent expectation of Yang Tian and others, the elite troops of these two Yuzhang finally arrived at the city of Nanchang. A few days ago, they had set out from here to defeat the Baiyun City army that dared to invade Yangzhou. But now, they have returned from Wu County without making an inch, and the only difference is that Nanchang City, the seat of Yuzhang County, has changed hands in just a few days. I have to say that the world is changing too fast.
As Tai Shi Ci said just now, the two armies were indeed divided into several units, and each team did not seem to have much connection with each other. When each team of troops came to the outside of Nanchang City, they found a piece of land and camped, and then I don't know who threw a few huge stones to the city wall of Nanchang City with a catapult, pulling Nanchang City into a state of war. Then they didn't make any more movements, and put on a posture that the well water would not interfere with the river water.
This made Yang Tian muttered in his heart. Perhaps something really happened in these two armies yesterday at noon. At that moment, Yang Tian took advantage of the fact that the enemy army had not yet formed a siege of Nanchang City, and released Ren Zhongyi, who had been promoted to an emperor-level assassin, from the north gate, and his purpose was to spy on what was going on in the enemy army.
