Chapter 193: The Siege

"Xuyang City is a big city in the northwest region of Ling Yingzhou, and its scale is even no less than Chang'an City!" Three kilometers outside Xuyang City, an army of Nornos was slowly approaching Xuyang City. (Fastest update). For more recent chapters, visit: . 79 novels

The leader of this Nornos army is an ape-man, the brother of Nornos, named Pikvia, a third-level nobleman of the Muripis Empire. Although Picvia is not as strong as Nornos, its strength is also not to be underestimated.

And next to Pikvia is a human being, he is Chu Yang.

"Chu Yang, you have been in the northwest region of Ling Yingzhou for more than ten years, you should be familiar with the layout of Xu Yang City, right?" During the march, Pikvia asked Chu Yang beside him, "Do you have any way to break through this city?" ”

Chu Yang smiled slightly, turned his head to look up at Pikvia, and said, "Dear Lord Pikvia, I have lived in Xuyang City for half a year, and I am very familiar with it. The city is very walled, and it might be difficult to attack it the same way we used to. After all, we had attacked other towns before, and the Nezumi Vanguard Army could easily cross the city walls, but now the walls of Xuyang City were much higher than ordinary towns. Although the Nezumi Vanguard can climb up, it will be more time-consuming, and in this process, the defenders of Xuyang City can implement many defensive measures, and even if the Nezumi Vanguard Army climbs up, it will suffer heavy casualties. ”

Hearing this, Pickvia showed a shocked expression, and 'pumped' its outward-facing nostrils, and Pickvia said, "In that case, you should know how to deal with it compared to Chu Yang, right?" ”

Nodding, Chu Yang said: "If you want to capture Xuyang City, there is a direct way, which is to trap them, and then surround them to send reinforcements!" ”

When Chu Yang said this, Pikvia was a little puzzled and asked, "What do you say?" ”

"Xuyang City was originally built to mine iron ore in the vicinity, and at the same time, the terrain here is relatively flat, and it is in the center of large towns such as Bian Cheng and Chang'an City, so it can be regarded as a central hub. But there is a problem that the land is barren and there is little water. During the six months I had been in Xuyang City, there had been several water outages due to the war, and the entire town had even stopped working due to a lack of water.

Upon hearing this, Pikova's little eyes flashed with a strange light.

"There are two water sources in Xuyang City, one is the Shouwang River that we occupied, and the other is the Bianhe River where Bian Cheng is located." After Chu Yang paused, he continued: "When the infrastructure was not yet established, Xuyang City could not develop until the construction of water pipe facilities and the diversion of water from the Shouwang River and the Bianhe River to the city, Xuyang City developed rapidly. ”

Pikvia stopped, stared at Chu Yang and said, "Presumably you should know the location of these water pipes, right?" ”

Nodding, Chu Yang said: "I know very well, because this water conservancy facility was built under my supervision, otherwise I wouldn't have told you about this matter." ”

Picvia stretched out his right thumb and praised Chu Yang's strength, this gesture was learned from humans, in addition to learning human knowledge, ape-man is also integrating some human culture.

Soon, with the help of Chu Yang, the Nornos army did not attack the city, but surrounded the entire Xuyang City, and then dug out all the water pipes buried in the shallow soil, and all of them were 'broken'.

"If humans don't have water supplementation, they will not be able to stand it for one day, their bodies will not be able to support it for two days, and they may not be able to survive for three days. Cut off the water source of Xuyang City, and then we besieged the city for three days, and when the humans in Xuyang City could no longer support it, we attacked the city. In the course of three days, if any of the Lingying Alliance troops want to come to the rescue, we will kill them. ”

Pickvia gave Chu Yang a thumbs up again, Chu Yang smiled modestly, and then continued: "But Lord Pickvia, I think you'd better apply for another team from Lord Nornos. After all, for such an important town as Xuyang City, the Lingying Alliance will definitely not give up, during our siege, they may send a large number of troops to the rescue, although this can attract a lot of troops from the Lingying Alliance, but we may also be in danger, and sending another force over can ensure our safety.

Nodding, Pickvia felt that Chu Yang's suggestion was very reasonable, so he immediately asked the communications soldiers in the army to contact the headquarters of Chang'an City and ask Nornos to send another force over.

On the wall of Xuyang City, Hu Yuankun, the commander of the Sixth Army of the Lingying Alliance, and Zhao Longtao, the commander of the Thirteenth Army, were very anxious. Originally, when they learned that the Nornos army was attacking, these two mobilized the soldiers in Xuyang City to defend the city, but they never expected that the Nornos army did not attack the city, but chose to besiege the city, and at the same time, all the water pipes connected to Xuyang City were broken.

"How is it possible that the Nornos army knows the location of the water pipes, and they have found and broken all the water pipes!" Hu Yuankun's face was pale, and he said: "There must be someone who has surrendered to the Nornos army, and this person happens to be a person from Xuyang City before!" ”

Zhao Longtao's face was not very good, and he said: "It's definitely not just that, ordinary people can't know the location of all the water pipes in Xuyang City, this person may have built water conservancy facilities in Xuyang City or supervised this facility before!" ”

Hu Yuankun was stunned when he heard this, and said: "I'll ask the headquarters of Bian Cheng to see who was the city lord of Xuyang City before, and the water is responsible for building the water conservancy facilities of Xuyang City!" ”

After a while, Hu Yuankun came back and said to Zhao Longtao: "I asked the headquarters of Bian Cheng, the previous city lord of Xuyang City was named Huang Qun, and now he is serving as a political councilor in the political committee, so it is not him. In addition, there are several people who are responsible for managing the water conservancy facilities in Xuyang City, but the person in charge of building the water pipes in Xuyang City is a person named Chu Yang. Regardless of the fact that he instigated **** four years ago, he was wanted by Tang Guozheng, and then he fled abroad, and there has been no news since. Through this, we can almost confirm that it was this Chuyang who surrendered to the Nornos army, and then informed the Nornos army of the situation in Xuyang City. ”

Zhao Longtao was a little surprised when he heard this, but after thinking about it for a while, he shook his head again. When Zhao Longtao heard Chu Yang, he immediately remembered Chu Yang in Yuancheng more than ten years ago. Shortly after Yuancheng was established, Chu Yang left Yuancheng to look for his relatives. At the beginning, Zhao Longtao immediately thought that the Chu Yang that Hu Yuankun said was him, but after thinking about it, Zhao Longtao felt that it was impossible. Because Chu Yang is not the kind of person who will succumb to the ape-man, maybe he has the same name and surname.

Meng Wen, who was next to him, also had the same expression as Zhao Longtao when he heard it, and he was also the same as Zhao Longtao, thinking that he just had the same name and surname.

Later, in view of the current situation, Hu Yuankun and Zhao Longtao could only look for an opportunity to raid the Nornos army in addition to requesting support from the Bian Cheng headquarters.

"The Nornos army obviously wants to trap us in Xuyang City!" In the council hall of Xuyang City, Hu Yuankun and others gathered to discuss, and Zhao Longtao took the lead and said: "The amount of water currently stored in our city can only support all of our two armies for one day, if we are trapped by the Nornos army for three days, we don't have to resist This town will be occupied by the Nornos army." So, I recommend finding a good time to raid! ”

"I think I should raid too!" Lin Shaota, the deputy commander of the Thirteenth Army, said, "But when the support from Bian Cheng's headquarters arrives, we will carry out a surprise attack." ”

Hu Yuankun said: "When I contacted the headquarters in Bian Cheng just now, the Military Commission also said that it could send another division of troops over, and at the same time, it would use radio to let the guerrillas scattered in the occupied area harass the Nornos army. ”

Meng Wen, who was on the other side, also said: "However, the cooperation between the two parties is a difficult point, we still have a telephone, we can contact the headquarters of Bian Cheng, but the city and the guerrillas who came to support have no way to contact us directly or with the headquarters, they can only rely on the open 'sexual' information sent by the headquarters to act." If we don't cooperate well with the support side, not only will we not be able to raid, but it may also lead to the encirclement and suppression of the support troops. ”

"The Nornos army is just paying attention to the encirclement and sending reinforcements!" Zhao Longtao continued: "Therefore, we need to take the initiative to attack, and we will 'make' the sound louder when we sneak attack, so that the support troops can receive the signal and cooperate." ”

After discussing the raid plan, Hu Yuankun and the others planned to carry it out at five o'clock in the morning the next day. At this agreed point in time, the Bian Cheng headquarters could inform the supporting divisions, and as for the guerrillas, they could only act at the opportune time. Moreover, the guerrillas have never been a contingent that wants to engage in a head-on confrontation, and they advocate the principle that the enemy advances and retreats, the enemy is stationed and disturbs, the enemy is tired and we fight, and the enemy retreats and pursues, so their task is only to 'disturb' the enemy, and as soon as they discover the situation, they will immediately run away.

The raid plan was followed by an additional action, which was Operation 'Riot'. Let the large troops rest, and then let the small troops take turns to use all kinds of noisy noises to make the enemy mistakenly believe that they have carried out a surprise attack, leaving them under martial law all night without a break. By the early hours of the morning, when the enemy is tired, it will be more likely to win a surprise attack.

At night, within a radius of one kilometer outside Xuyang City, the Nornos army was already scattered, and they took turns to stand guard under the orders of Picvia in case the soldiers of Xuyang City raided.

At one o'clock in the morning, Xu Yangcheng suddenly made a loud noise, and there was even artillery fire to bombard the camp of the Nornos army, causing Pikvia to immediately gather all the soldiers. And at this time, Chu Yang said like Picvia: "Don't be nervous, this is just a local 'disturbance' method!" ”
