These four cities seem to be independent, but there are internal connected passages, and no matter which aspect of the situation is irresistible, the remaining three cities can be supported by the secret passage at the first time.

So if you just play one side, it's still equivalent to one hitting four.

However, the forces in Lin Hong's hands could not attack from all sides at the same time.

But in the face of a single pass, he is the superior force.

His own Kyoto camp of 80,000 has experienced a little bit of civil strife, but there are still some people who have come out of the forbidden army of the imperial palace and have finally made up for it, which is the main force of the Chinese army.

There are also private soldiers of various northern forces who have accumulated over the years, and the number can be 30,000, which is squeezed out of the gap between the teeth, and there is also a certain amount of supplies.

Linde's side can recruit a large number of outlaws, and Lin Hong's side can also do it, Linde uses money, and Lin Hong talks about feelings and encounters.

It is true that the outlaws of the north have done a lot of evil, but there are also some who have really been wronged.

They fought for Lin Hong not for money, but for revenge, except for killing, they couldn't smooth out the hatred in their hearts.

These people are not easy to control, it is a double-edged sword, but Lin Hong just dares to use it.

Although it can't be said that he controls everyone confidently, Lin Hong really has personal charm, and with a little poisonous chicken soup in his soul, he fooled those people.

Now in front of the coalition forces is the Upper Acropolis.

It is also the closest one to the northern region.

Lin Hong didn't study it carefully, these four acropolises are all made of the same mold, and there will not be much difference in layout.

And Linde wouldn't be stupid enough to send some fools to defend the city.

He'll either bring in some veterans or work with multiple people in sections.

As for letting the young people of the Lin family be responsible.

That's impossible, their experience itself is insufficient, and besides, the younger generation of the Lin family is skilled in martial arts and is a military commander, which one has no contact with Lin Hong.

At this time, Linde could not have trusted them completely.

Experienced people such as veterans are more suitable for people who can execute.

Who can there be a veteran in the Kyoto area, Lin Hong is clear, after all, he is a senior, and he is the object of learning, I don't know which one it is, but I can clearly know it if I try it.

Thirty miles away from the city, Lin Hong ordered to set up camp.

This is a very safe distance, the surrounding terrain is flat and open, it is convenient to monitor the enemy's movements, every move can be clearly seen, and there is plenty of water, there is also enough space to deal with domestic garbage, and it is also convenient for Lin Hong to use some of his hole cards.

For example, when the place where the camp was chosen, a long convoy soon came, and the people who came were all ordinary military uniforms, and the carts pulled by them looked like grain bags, but in fact they were all good armed blades.

One of Lin Hong's hole cards.

Build a tent, arm your men, and tomorrow launch a tentative attack to see how well the defense goes.

Otherwise, no one can come up with a plan out of thin air.

Intelligence is intelligence, and experience that is seen with the naked eye is also indispensable.

How the actual defense ability still needs to be tested, just let the soldiers practice their hands, and the siege warfare is not very familiar with it, just practice a few more times.

The next day, with the sound of trumpets, the armies of both sides began to move.

Although today's first siege was tentative, the significance was still relatively significant, Lin Hong came forward, and he also had Chen Zheng by his side, he was not worried that Chen Zheng would stay in the camp.

The elite of the Kyoto battalion mobilized 10,000.

The remaining 30,000 were outlaws and a combined army of various powers.

Today's siege they are the protagonists, and the front is the one that presses the formation, to prevent possible riots.

The sound of the horn of Lin Hong's army also woke up the people who defended the city.

The billowing smoke and dust can be seen from afar.

They were wary for a long time, and they quickly reacted.

Began to enter a state of combat readiness according to the divided areas.

Because they knew that there was a problem in the north, they were more vigilant than the other three directions, because they were very likely to be the first target.

So I was secretly vigilant.

Lin Hong came to attack, and these people were not very panicked.

The number of defenders is very large, and there is a steady stream of people behind to replenish, the point is that there are not many veterans here, after all, it is very likely to become the first target.

So the proportion of elites is relatively high.

The veteran who sits here is also the famous Yang Xuan of the Daxi Dynasty.

He is almost 80 years old this year.

It can be regarded as a legend of the Onishi Dynasty.

Because of physical reasons, his cultivation is really poor, although he is a general, his martial arts are average.

When God closes a door for you, it also opens a window for you.

Yang Xuan's martial arts are not good, but his ability to command troops is first-class.

Decades ago, the Great Western Army guarded the borders of the dynasty under his command.

If it weren't for physical problems, I wouldn't have retired early.

If his body is excellent, where will there be things about Lin Hong and other juniors later?

When the Sprout Sect attacked, Yang Xuan was seriously ill and fell into a coma for a while, so he didn't play a corresponding role.

After the situation stabilized a little, it was already very different, the budding sect fell, and the people of the upper realm also came.

For the forces that have mysteriously appeared, this veteran has a very keen sense that the comer is not good.

It's just that he doesn't have much say when he retires, and with the special existence of the people in the upper realm, he can't do anything.

However, when Lin Hong's anti-water incident appeared, the veteran Yang Xuan felt that the taste in his heart was a little complicated.

Lin Hong is also half of his own student, and he does not have the name of master and apprentice, but he also has the reality of master and apprentice.

No one could have imagined that the little doll would be able to do such a thing now.

Sure enough, after taking power, he was blinded by power. Want more.

Unlike other generals who fancy the power in their hands, Yang Xuan really fought with the concept of defending the family and the country when he was young, and it has never changed for so many years.

Since he was half of his own student, Yang Xuan thought that it was necessary for him to go out of the mountain and punish this disobedient student.

As for the reason, he didn't need to ask.

At the beginning, the Sprout Sect had already annoyed Yang Xuan a little, feeling that he had lost an opportunity to save the people of the dynasty.

It didn't work out before, and this time Yang Xuan decided what he should do.

Before Linde could invite the veteran, the veteran general had already sent his family to the door.

Lin De was overjoyed by the arrival of the old general, he brought in a lot of generals, but there were really few who were highly respected.

A group of arrogant soldiers and fierce generals were not convinced. If it weren't for Linde to lead them, no one would listen to anyone else's command.

It's a pity that Linde only has one person who doesn't know how to do anything, otherwise one person is divided into five points, and there will still be people making trouble on one side of Kyoto plus four guarding the city?

Yang Xuan's departure shocked those guys to a large extent.

If it weren't for the war, these generals would need to deal with it for the time being. According to Linde's methods, these people have to taste death anyway.

The sound of the horn outside woke the veteran at the first moment.

Even if he is old, the habits he developed when he was young made him sober up as soon as possible.

Only two of the veteran's sons chose to join the army, and their level was average. Dingtian can be a general who guards a city.

It is said that tiger fathers have no dogs, but this is not necessarily accurate.

But the grandson of Old Man Yang Xuan is very good.

Not only is his appearance good, but his talent is also good, and he has learned both martial arts and the art of war.

Except for being younger and less experienced, he is very good in other aspects, and the old man is very happy to think that he has a successor, and the two dogs in the family have not inherited their own advantages, and now they have grandchildren who are stronger than ten sons.

The old man was very happy.

He has been keeping his grandson by his side and constantly cultivating, his cultivation is not high, and he has not much time left for himself, so he cherishes the opportunity now.

The grandson of General Yang Xuan is Yang Su. The cultivation of the peak of Zhou Tianjing is already twenty-two this year, and it can't be compared with Lin Hong, but he is already the leader of the younger generation within the Great Western Dynasty.

Now as the captain of the old man Yang Xuan's personal guard, he learns the art of war while practicing martial arts.

You can also take care of the old general's diet and daily life, after all, when you are old, it is not good to have no one around.

If there is an acute illness, someone can respond much faster.

Hearing the sound of the horn, Yang Su rushed over to change his grandfather's clothes as soon as possible.

My father and uncles didn't agree with my grandfather going to the battlefield, what are you tossing at such an age, isn't it good to live honestly at home?

But my father and uncles didn't understand that that kind of life was not a peaceful old age for my grandfather, but a kind of torture.

Some people have done the same job all their lives, and after retiring and resting, they never want to touch it again.

And some people are crazy about wanting to do those careers in the past.

For no other reason, the main thing is itchy hands.

Yang Xuan is old but he can't forget the things he had when he was young, it is really a humiliation to let a general die on a hospital bed, and the battlefield is his final destination.

Yang Su understands his grandfather's mood very well, and it is precisely because of his admiration that he joined the army.

Today's first attack of the rebels, I don't know what new tricks can be made.

There is also Lin Hong, a young generation of Qiliner, Yang Su also wants to see it.

quickly helped grandpa put on his clothes and armor, and the group quickly went to the city.

The old general's legs and feet are not too big a problem, and Yang Su and the others only need close protection.

When we arrived at the city, the rebels outside were clearly visible.

Although both sides held the name of the Onishi Dynasty, one side was the Qing monarch's side, and the other side was ordered to beg the thief. Nature is also different.

Yang Su looked at the dense troops outside and was not afraid, he was also a person who had seen a big scene, but he was trembling at that time, and now he can face it calmly.

He thinks that he can't finish any siege equipment in a day, even if the materials are sufficient, it is already very good to be able to build some ladders and the like, and it is enough to fight an ordinary city. But for a tall wall like the Shangshou City, it is still a little shorter.

To give one of the simplest examples, the simple siege equipment built in a short period of time does not have much impact on the defense of the city, it can be said that it is minimal.

So today's siege is likely to be anticlimactic.

It is also reasonable for Yang Su to make such a judgment, and it is possible for other generals to make similar judgments.

And what Lin Hong likes to do is to surprise people.

As the team approached, the defenders at the head of the city could already see the situation on the other side, densely packed with human heads and armor. However, no siege equipment was found. Are they going to build a ladder out of the corpse?

It's just that the subsequent scene made Yang Su not know what to say, maybe many people don't know.

They noticed that each of them seemed to be carrying something behind them. Then at a distance from Ann, the enemy's ranks stopped.

They then unloaded their packages and began to assemble them.

Soon it became a ladder and a siege tower.

Now this is trained.

The enemy did not rush over to attack, but directly separated the siege equipment and assembled it in place, which is really a good idea.

Needless to say, today's battle must be fought.

There's no such thing as a one-man fight. There's no chicken soup for the soul, it's very simple to do.

The rebels began to attack the city, and a man began to advance with siege engines.

The defenders at the head of the city also began to move, ready to resist.

The ensuing picture is a typical picture of siege warfare, with arrows raining down and equipment attacking the city.

The flesh and sweat of the soldiers collided.

This is the most common scenario for siege warfare, and it is also only a tentative attack. Because the offensive is not very violent, the end is to increase the experience of the people below.

Of course, it is not excluded that there will be a consumption of defensive materials on the defending side to find out the truth.

The old general could see at a glance that such an offensive was a bluffer. There isn't much lethality.

You only need to worry about whether there are any warriors lurking in these attackers, and everything else is very simple.

The old general didn't act, just ordered to go down and follow the precautions during training, pay attention to not wasting too much of the materials for defending the city, although the Lin family has a rich background, but the old general is not used to fighting rich battles, and he must leave enough capital, maybe when he can turn over.
