Chapter 289: A Rain
The army began to attack, accompanied by all kinds of engineering equipment, and for a time it was indeed grand!
But to Schrödinger's surprise, the resistance in the city was far stronger than he had imagined.
It's obviously defending the city, but it's defending a kind of offensive momentum!
Schrödinger didn't know that there was a reason why the defenders of the city defended the city and resisted fiercely.
Because the defenders of the city were all southerners, Temur was also afraid that he would not be able to help.
Therefore, Temur set a strict punishment, and even cited the most severe system of continuous sitting, so as to force the defenders to make contributions!
In the same way, there are punishments, but there are also rewards, land, official positions, gold and silver, the rewards are very rich.
That's what makes the soldiers work!
I have to say that with a big stick in one hand and sweet dates in the other, Temur also knows the way of the emperor.
After three days without any results, Schrödinger could only reluctantly remove people, and he needed to recuperate for a while.
After all, the iron cavalry on the opposite side has not yet been dispatched, and he doesn't want to give the other party a chance to wait for work!
Once the whole army was exhausted because of the siege, Schrödinger knew that the opposite side would never give up this opportunity.
Looking at Schrödinger's army cultivation, Timur also knew that his plan was seen through by the other party.
I can't help but feel a little anxious!
In the end, he was young, and the first half of his life was smooth, compared to Schrödinger's ups and downs in his life.
The comparison of patience is not as good as Schrödinger's cunning old treacher.
In short, the balance of victory in this psychological war is on Schrödinger's side!
While Schrödinger's army was cultivating, it was not idle, getting up early in the camp every day to train, and at the same time organizing soldiers to play games and exercise their physique!
After Temur learned about this situation from the spies, his heart became more and more restless.
However, he still has patience, and at the same time knows that his side still has the advantage in the battle.
Although the warriors in his own army have the desire to fight, he can still wait, so he restrains the warriors.
He insisted on holding back his restlessness and calming down, like a lone wolf on the grassland, always having enough patience for his prey.
He is waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the prey to be tired, waiting for the other party to show his flaws, which is his chance to counterattack!
What Timur didn't know was that while he was waiting, there were two people quietly discussing something in Schrödinger's big military camp at this time!
It was Schrödinger who had always trusted the Taoist priest with whom he had always been.
I have to say that he can get Schrödinger's trust for so many years, this Taoist priest also knows how to advance and retreat, although he is deeply trusted, but he is very clear about his position - lonely minister!
He never had close contact with the ministers of the court and the generals in the army.
Even when Schrödinger put him in charge of the secret guard, he also took the initiative to let Schrödinger's personal attendant serve as his deputy, not greedy for power at all, so as to reassure Schrödinger.
Similarly, this Taoist priest is not a cannibalistic fireworks, he is not a saint, and he has no concealment of his ambition to cultivate and open up his own Taoist system, and directly reveals it to Schrödinger.
Or because of Zhang Yuan, the people in power are very jealous of the "saint".
Not greedy for power, but having desires, and being able to be satisfied at the same time, coupled with knowing how to advance and retreat, is the reason why Schrödinger has been trusted for so many years.
"Yuanhe, how is the upper reaches of the river now?"
The Taoist priest said respectfully: "Returning to the country's grandfather, this is the time when the river tide is long, but it is splendid. ”
When Schrödinger heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
He is familiar with everything about Yuan Cheng, although Yuan Cheng has made many repairs over the years, and has made up for many loopholes.
But due to the topography, there is also a natural flaw!
The terrain of Yuancheng is not high, and when it was first built, it was never thought of being built as a military town.
Therefore, in order to meet the agricultural water of the surrounding people, it is specially built in the downstream.
But at this time, it was a natural flaw, Schrödinger only needed to store water upstream, and then he could flood Yuan City.
Don't look at these days, Schrödinger has been in a stalemate with Temur, but he is bright and dark.
On the surface, the city was attacked, but in fact, it was secretly Chen Cang, and people were sent to investigate the situation of the upper class.
Of course, Schrödinger was also worried, and Timur had been prepared, and everything had been quietly investigated.
But he didn't expect him to think highly of Temur, maybe because he was a steppe barbarian and didn't know the art of war in the Central Plains!
Don't you know that the power of fire and water, although it is unbenevolent, is a superior strategy.
Knowing the upper-class situation, Schrödinger suddenly calmed down.
"Yuan He, you cut and lead a battalion of soldiers under your command to the upper reaches to store water, and then I will flood Yuan City!"
Schrödinger's tone was heroic!
This Taoist priest was also happy when he heard this, he and Schrödinger's Daqin were already connected with their lives, so they were naturally looking forward to Daqin's early unification of the world, but he didn't expect that the time had come in a blink of an eye!
Holding back his joy, he said seriously: "No! ”
A few days later, Schrödinger sent a large army to attack the city, preparing for his secret plan!
On that day, the sky was not beautiful, and there was a light rain in the sky.
When Timur saw the light rain in the sky, he immediately felt that this was good news!
You must know that he has already inquired about the locals, and knows that this time is the rainy season, and the light rain in the sky will most likely last for half a month!
They live in the city, which has little impact, but the exposure of Schrödinger's army camp outside the city to a light rain is not good!
Even the hurried light rain and bad environment will not only affect the morale, morale, and combat effectiveness of the soldiers, but also because the rain will cause the flu to appear in the army.
Timur could imagine that once this light rain was over, the combat effectiveness of the enemy forces outside the city would definitely drop a lot.
Then may be the time you have been waiting for!
As long as you recharge your energy these days, when the time comes, you may be able to break the enemy army!
Outside the camp at this time, in Schrödinger's tent.
Schrödinger felt the light rain in the sky, and immediately laughed three times: "The destiny is mine!" Destiny is mine! ”
Before, he was still thinking that the speed of water storage was too slow, and it was raining, but it was really as he said, the destiny of heaven was him, so he could definitely break the city!
It rained for 10 days in a row!
Just when both sides are waiting for the heavy rain to end, waiting for what they think is the time to win!
On that day, Schrödinger's army braved the heavy rain at night and quietly retreated for dozens of miles.
The next day, Temur's spies replied with the news, and after that, Temur was slightly shocked.
He was still wondering if it was because of the heavy rain that Schrödinger's army was hit a huge blow?
Is it now the time for the army to attack?
Or is it just a trick by the enemy army to lure the enemy?
