Chapter 264: Tengcheng Night Battle
Shen Xin followed Gui Chou back to southern Xinjiang, and the war in the south began to officially break out.
Counting up, it has been nearly half a year since Li Yun's rebellion began. The north is now a poor people.
But the imperial city has still not been breached, and Li Yun's army of 800,000 has not yet defeated the capital for nearly half a year.
It is rumored that Li Yun is not as brave as the legend says.
This is what everyone takes for granted, but to some it is really terrifying.
Although this battle was fought for half a year, Li Yun harassed and left every time he sent troops in the later period.
The forces in the north were not enough, and they did not dare to go deep alone. This made Li He and them very passive.
Qing Zheng's army has arrived at the northern border.
Li He Daxi, who learned of the situation, as long as the troops were sufficient, then they would have the qualifications to take the initiative to attack.
Those people in the Qing family were originally people in the rivers and lakes, and they were all good at fighting alone. I'm afraid it's a little weaker when it comes to fighting.
But the victory is that the discipline is quite strict.
Qing's family had never fought in a war, and they were trained by the military for some time before they arrived on the northern front.
During this period, there were also deserters, and for this kind of people, they were directly killed.
Under the seemingly brutal method of Qing Zheng, the effect is remarkable.
As for the South, the situation can be described as quite bad.
Just a few days after Ye Xuanyuan harassed him, Di Yue and others finally discovered that Ye Xuanyuan had no intention of launching an attack at all.
And the people behind the scenes also know that their plans have failed. But this plan was originally intended to get the maximum benefit with the least loss.
It doesn't matter if the plan is revealed now, they already have a huge advantage.
Ye Xuanyuan had already prepared that the other party had a plan to attack on a large scale, so in the battle on the night of February 23, Tengcheng was defended.
In the face of this narrow terrain game, pre-war preparation became a decisive factor in the victory of the war.
Before the battle, Ye Xuanyuan would give the soldiers plenty of sleep time. The fighters are also not worried at all because of trust and long-term tacit understanding.
The reason why Ye Xuanyuan dared to do this was because he had a fast and comprehensive intelligence system.
If there is any change in the other party, you will know it at the first time. Get ahead of the curve.
This is also the reason why Ye Xuanyuan attaches great importance to intelligence work.
In the arrangement of the defense, the order of impact, the lethality of various weapons, such as rockets, catapults, etc., Ye Xuanyuan will have detailed data.
In the improvement and innovation of weapons, Ye Xuanyuan also invested a lot of energy.
The soldiers' strong physical fitness, abundant energy, and the commander's killing in front of the battle made the morale high.
Ye Xuanyuan trained a large number of crossbowmen, who were usually demanding. The cultivated people are not only effective in long-range combat, but also in melee combat.
The trust between their comrades-in-arms made them never afraid that the people on the castle tower would accidentally injure themselves.
In terms of the layout of the city defense, even an old strategist like Aimu, who has seen many large and small wars, has to be amazed.
The sluice knife in the middle of the city wall indicates that the possibility of the other party trying to take the ladder up is zero.
And the only thing they could enter the city was the city gates.
The city gate is wide open, and as long as you can beat the enthusiastic soldiers in front of the city gate, you can enter.
The effect of this is that all important attacks of the opponent will fall on the soldiers at the city gates.
This gives the rest the most room to attack.
It is impossible to fight without death, and every time Ye Xuanyuan stands in a place, it is the most dangerous place.
It is precisely because of this that all the soldiers admired this brave and resourceful general.
That night, the opponent's 100,000-strong army pressed the city, and this time it was not like the first time to fight and disperse.
It started with a wave of rockets opening the line of sight, followed by a massive catapult attack.
The curtain is in front, approaching step by step.
Ye Xuanyuan chose the catapult to fight back for the first time, and the target was not on the local soldiers, but on the wooden mantle cart in the front row.
The wooden mantle cart is a tool that can block the enemy's view and prevent the enemy's bow and arrow attack in war.
The boulder was covered in oil, and it burned and smashed at the opposing army.
First consumed a wave remotely, and when the other party approached, there were not a few wooden curtains left on the other side.
The second wave of archers attacked, and there were many casualties.
The other party's catapult also caused some losses to Ye Xuanyuan's side, but fortunately, some defensive counterparts were installed in advance and the station was arranged. The losses were expected.
Melee combat is the nemesis of all siege machines.
After the approach of the opposing forces, the catapults on both sides lost their effectiveness.
The soldiers in Ye Xuanyuan's hands were obviously a few points stronger than the other party's.
No matter how powerful the measures are, they are a little powerless in the face of the crushing of a large number of people.
The other party was determined to capture Tengcheng that time, and then he was killed later, and the bones were piled up.
Ye Xuanyuan killed the enemy on the battlefield, and there was no way to observe the losses of the army in general.
