After a night of deep thought, Chen Wen decided not to transfer back the army that attacked Wu County for the time being, and the main reason for this was that the sun was in Wu County. Moreover, the remaining army in Yangzhou is not without the ability to resist, as long as the forces of the whole county can be integrated, it can completely resist the rapid advance of Baiyun City. Chen Wen believes that in the face of tremendous pressure, the county guards of Yangzhou counties will unite. As long as the other counties are willing to send troops to help Yuzhang and Danyang counties resist the attack of Baiyun City, these two counties will not fall into the hands of Baiyun City.

On the other hand, Chen Wen also hopes to take this opportunity to integrate the forces of the whole Yangzhou and increase his control over the whole state. If done properly, he can complete the identity transformation from Yangzhou Assassin to Yangzhou Mu, and he is also the state pastor who really controls the whole county, not a false name.

Therefore, before dawn the next day, Chen Wen sent envoys to the counties to visit the county guards, explain their opinions to them, and persuade the other party to invest more troops to resist Baiyun City's attack on Yangzhou. In order to achieve their goals, these envoys can be described as both soft and hard, talking about the benefits after destroying Baiyun City on the one hand, and the consequences of Baiyun City's invasion of Yangzhou on the other.

However, these county guards are not stupid, and the fact that they have been able to get to this point shows that they have a keen sense of political smell. They knew very well that if they really put most of the power in their hands into Chen Wen's hands, I am afraid that Chen Wen would quickly grow and eventually become their real leader, and at that time, would their lives still be as good as they are now? But if you don't hand it over, how can you deal with the army of Baiyun City? Could it be that he watched Baiyun City occupy the two counties of Yuzhang and Danyang?

Originally, the largest county in Yangzhou was Huiji County, but now Huiji County has become part of Yizhou. The rest of these counties. The largest is Yuzhang County, if even Yuzhang and Danyang County fall into the hands of Baiyun City now, then Yangzhou will go to more than half. With such a large area for the development of Baiyun City, will there still be a foothold for these Yangzhou officials in the future?

Chen Wen hadn't waited for any of the envoys sent out, but he had waited for two people who surprised him, these two were the Taishou of Yuzhang County and Danyang County.

Before meeting these two people, Chen Wen could guess a little about their intentions, which was nothing more than asking him to help them find some reinforcements. Thinking of this, Chen Wen couldn't help but feel a little happy. Since the other party came to beg him. Then naturally there will be some price to pay. Chen Wen has thought about it, if they don't show loyalty to themselves, they will delay time to see who can survive whom!

But Chen Wen guessed the beginning, but didn't guess the end. Yuzhang and Danyang two counties Taishou did come to Shouchun to ask Chen Wen for rescue. However, there is not the slightest self-knowledge of asking for people. There was even a hint of dissatisfaction with Chen Wen in his words. In this case, Chen Wen naturally couldn't agree to the other party's request very simply.

In this case, the two county guards are also hot-tempered. directly patted his ass and left, but when they left, they said a word, but Chen Wen's face was as black as the bottom of the pot. What they said was simple, if Chen Wen could not help in half a day, they would transfer back the army they had sent to Wu County.

This is simply a threat to the red fruit! I don't take him as a thorn in my eyes at all.

But after being angry, Chen Wen had to face a reality, that is, the combined strength of these two counties exceeded two million, and if they were really withdrawn from Wu County, it would still have an impact on attacking Wu County. What's more, as soon as this head is opened, how can he control other county guards in the future? Everyone does things according to their own ideas, so there is nothing to do with him.

But what can he do now? Capture these two Taishou and cut them back? To be honest, this method may be okay on weekdays, after taking these two Taishou in his own hands, he announced that he would remove them from his post and appoint someone he trusted to take the position. Even if there are many of their henchmen in the two counties of Yuzhang and Danyang, as long as they give themselves a certain amount of time, they will definitely be able to purge them.

But the point is that what he lacks now is time. If he dares to move these two counties at this time, it is difficult to guarantee that the cronies of the other party who stay in the two places will not directly take refuge in Yizhou, and at that time, he may have to cry. These two Taishou may have understood this and dared to come to Shouchun alone!

In the end, Chen Wen had no choice but to send a message to those envoys who had already been sent out again, asking them to increase their persuasion efforts, and make sure that the other county guards agreed to send troops to rescue. After this order was issued, Chen Wen could only wait quietly.

……

The war in Wu County is still going on, and no one knows how long it will last. However, now the siege of the Yangzhou army is much smaller. Maybe they also saw that this Wu County was definitely not able to be defeated in a day or two, if they were in a hurry, I am afraid that not only would they not be able to capture the city in the end, but even their tens of millions of troops might be buried here.

In this situation where the gap between the individual strengths of the two sides is not very large, siege warfare is a kind of war of attrition, and it is difficult to capture the city without exhausting the troops or materials defending the city. If you can open the city gates, then it is not the case.

Of course, in addition to the above methods, there is another safer method, which is to destroy the city walls or force the city gates. The Yangzhou army also thought about breaking through the gate of Wuxian County, and even sent ten siege vehicles, but what made them depressed was that these siege vehicles had turned into a pile of rotten wood before they reached the city gate.

In fact, the siege car is not so fragile, and the reason why it will be damaged by light yì is because of Yang Tian's ground-level ballista called the Demon King's Fury. Although it is a bit thankless to attack the siege car with a ballista, but at present, in addition to this thing, it is really difficult for Yang Tian to destroy the siege car in a short period of time with other equipment. In desperation, Yang Tian had no choice but to adopt this stupid method, but fortunately, after each siege car was attacked several times by the Demon King's Fury, it directly shot out more than ten holes, although it did not collapse, but the structure was damaged, so after being covered by the catapult and attacking, this siege car was completely abandoned.

Of course, Yang Tian didn't have the only way to destroy these siege vehicles, such as letting the fifty divine envoys under his command escort go down, but it would inevitably cause losses to the divine envoy guards. In this kind of fierce battle, every combatant is precious, let alone a master like the Divine Envoy Guard.

The Yangzhou army gave up this idea after trying to storm the city and rush the car to make no contribution. No matter which force it is, the siege car is a very valuable thing, which can be seen from the fact that Baiyun City has not yet obtained the siege car. Therefore, after losing ten siege vehicles before, these Yangzhou generals were very distressed.

Now the only remaining method is to use catapults to collapse the city walls of Wu County, but this is definitely a time-consuming task, after all, Wu County is a county town, and this intermediate city wall is not so easy to collapse, not to mention that there are also Baiyun City's catapults and ballistas to suppress the city walls, making their siege equipment impossible to use to the fullest. At the same time, Yang Tian had left a lot of stonemasons in the city before, with these people in the city, even if the city wall was damaged, they could repair it in time, although the speed of this repair could not keep up with the speed of destruction, but it was absolutely no problem to delay for some time.

Yang Tian stayed on the city wall all night, and seeing that the war here had not changed, he had no intention of staying here. With the current comparison of the strength of the two sides, it is basically impossible for the Yangzhou army to take Wu County. Instead of staying here, he might as well take the opportunity to sneak back to Baiyun City to cultivate internal strength, or help Huang Zhong and others attack Yuzhang and Danyang two counties.

After deciding, Yang Tian simply instructed Gao Shun, Sun Ce and the others, and asked them to keep their whereabouts secret for the time being. Yang Tian didn't want the news of his departure from here to be exposed for the time being, in case he left, let Chen Wen withdraw his troops directly from Wu County, although the impact on the war was not too great, but it was not so perfect after all. Subsequently, Yang Tian returned to Penglai Immortal Island with the identity of the lord of Penglai, and as for the Iron Eagle Ruishi under his command, he was also taken away by Yang Tian. Who made the opponent this time just Chen Wen? This guy doesn't have any masters under his command, and he doesn't have too many powerful troops, so it would be a complete waste to keep the powerful Iron Eagle Warriors in the city.

……

After returning to Baiyun City from Penglai Immortal Island, Yang Tian was not idle, after all, the current Baiyun City was not as good as it was at the beginning. After owning the entire Yizhou plus half of the area of Wu County, the number of affairs that Baiyun City needed to deal with every day increased dramatically. Coupled with the fact that the Baiyun City army is currently on a crusade everywhere, there are even more things in front of Yang Tian. Just the situation reported from various places was enough for him to watch for a few days. Fortunately, with the assistance of Diao Chan now, the efficiency has been greatly improved. At the same time, the things that can be reported to Yang Tian are relatively large or general things, which also reduces his workload.

What Yang Tian is most concerned about now is Jia Xu's attack on Yangzhou, because the progress here will affect how much benefit Baiyun City can gain in this war. As for the occupation of the whole of Yangzhou, it was a planned thing, and whether this goal could be achieved had to wait for the results to be known, after all, no one could know whether something would jump out of the middle and disrupt their plans. Of course, in order to attack Yangzhou this time, Yang Tian counted the entire army of Yizhou on it, if it can't be effective, it can only be said that the heroes in this world are too powerful.

It's just that now the war has just begun, and the army with the most brilliant results has only occupied a city, and it is not a county seat. However, there is one phenomenon that makes Yang Tian very happy, that is, from yesterday evening to this moment, in the process of attacking, the resistance of the player forces encountered by the Baiyun City army was not very strong, and even some player forces that only owned towns and towns surrendered directly, which also made the advance of the Baiyun City army more smooth.
