Chapter 118: Attacking the city and plundering the wall
They received Ling Tiancheng's order and came to protect Zhuang Siyan throughout the process.
Ye Yuanpei's mouth pursed: "Can you use it?" My army of 70,000 or 80,000 can't protect her, and I still want the six of you? ”
He is a general, Qingfeng is naturally inconvenient to say, but the orders above cannot be disobeyed, and they have a good relationship with Zhuang Siyan now, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is her subordinates, after all, in Zhuang Changyuan's case, they had cooperated in private.
Ye Yuanpei is just venting his dissatisfaction, of course, the more people, the better.
Especially these people have been to Jincheng and have also been to Anritsu's house, which is a good thing for him.
At this point, all the personnel were all together, and they accelerated their speed to the south.
A few days later, Ye Yuanpei had already reached the southern border, and they were about to start the first battle.
Anritsu may not be able to do it in many places, but he is indeed a master of using troops.
The entire southern Xinjiang, from the inside to the outside, was all arranged by him.
The city gate guarding southern Xinjiang is like an iron wall, and it is not just that anyone who wants to come can come.
If he took the initiative to go to the capital to fight Ling Tiancheng, he might lose quickly, but if Ling Tiancheng wanted to fight him, it might not be.
Ye Yuanpei checked outside the small city on the edge of southern Xinjiang for two days, but he couldn't find a point that could be attacked.
At this time, he took the generals and looked at the map in front of him worried, and a hard attack would definitely not work.
Now Anli is the head snake of the land, they are very tired after a long journey, and the personnel are also injured, and there are as many as 100,000 people who only defend the city.
In every sense of the word, it is inaccessible.
Lu Xiao said: "There is a waterway here, it seems that the guards are not strict, should we try to take the waterway?" ”
Ye Yuanpei immediately shook his head: "Waterways are their forte, not ours, just a few of our army can swim and row."
This waterway is a gap they deliberately put on us, just to lure us through and then annihilate us in one fell swoop. ”
Lu Xiao was angry: "Damn, Anli is too cunning." ”
"Not cunning, he can be here for so many years, from the first emperor to now, there is nothing he can do?"
After gossiping, the matter still has to be settled.
If you can't go by water, you can only storm the city gate.
But attacking the city gate is really the most undesirable method for them, Ye Yuanpei really doesn't want to use it, so he can only say: "Wait another day and see." ”
After the generals dispersed, Zhuang Siyan came in.
She had just gone to the city gate for a walk, so she didn't go to the meeting with everyone.
When Ye Yuanpei saw her, he didn't have a lot of machismo like Ling Tiancheng.
The two of them had often worked together before, so they naturally spoke: "Slipped back, tell me how to do this?" ”
As soon as Zhuang Siyan's buttocks were raised, he sat on the table, and then turned around, and the person had already turned to the map.
"Hard offense definitely won't work......"
"It's useful, we've said this a thousand times." Ye Yuanpei interrupted her impatiently.
Zhuang Siyan gave him a blank look: "Then why didn't you find a way to enter the city just now?" ”
Ye Yuanpei: "......"
If he finds it, he'll still be here to listen to her? Still looking at the white eyes?
Since Ye Yuanpei's confession failed, his opinion of Zhuang Siyan has been even greater.
Women, they all thought differently, they used to worship him more, and they shouted to marry him every day, but when they saw Ling Tiancheng, they changed their minds, and they didn't even pay attention to his confession, and they wanted to come back to marry the broken emperor, and there were a lot of harem concubines.
Now, I'm going to send her out to do the rough work.
Fighting, brothers and sisters, it is rough work, life work, that is a man's business, and now it has fallen to her Zhuang Siyan, which shows how unfavored she is in the palace.
Thinking about it like this, Ye Yuanpei cast a sympathetic look at her instead: "It's not that I didn't expect it, I just wanted to discuss it with you, after all, we have been working together for so long, and I am still very sure of your ability." ”
Zhuang Siyan smiled at him at this time, and then said business.
The disparity in personnel is a big problem, and no matter what you do, they are at a disadvantage.
Zhuang Siyan quietly asked Ye Yuanpei: "Aren't you able to wear it back?" Go find a gun, I will go into the city tomorrow, find their leader, and kill them with one shot, this matter is not over. ”
Ye Yuanpei stabbed her obliquely: "You thought about it for a long time and thought of such a way?" ”
Zhuang Siyan nodded: "I think it's good, capture the thief and capture the king first, their head is dead, isn't it equivalent to breaking the city?" ”
Ye Yuanpei: "First, now that there is an army press, their leader will definitely protect himself very well, it is not easy for you to find him."
Second, in this city, there are four gates, and there are four leaders, even if you can kill them, they are only one, and if you can't even kill the deputy leader, you may be caught.
Third, it's also difficult to get in, and recently the city has been strictly bounded. ”
He already has a lot of experience in war, and he is much better than Zhuang Siyan when he first arrived, so his analysis is more objective.
Zhuang Siyan was also annoyed for a while after hearing this, so he could only say: "Then you can't bring something else back, such as smoke bombs, or heavy machine guns, let's shoot over here......"
"Okay, if you can't think of a more practical way, just go back to sleep, I have a headache from the noise." This time, Ye Yuanpei didn't wait for her to finish speaking, and then interrupted.
Zhuang Siyan was also depressed, jumped down from the table and said, "Isn't the golden finger useless?" I thought that you, the general, were beaten back by a golden finger, but when it came to the end, I didn't do anything. ”
Her feet stepped out of the tent, and Ye Yuanpei called her back again: "Why don't we go back and have a look together?" I'm telling you, you can't bring back big things, you can only bring small ones, and some things don't work when they come back. ”
Zhuang Siyan had already jumped back: "Enough, just have a small one." ”
The two of them took advantage of the darkness and wore it back overnight.
It's still the empty city, there is everything in it, but there is no one.
This time, Zhuang Siyan didn't care about being sad, and went straight to the important place to find what they wanted to use.
After dawn, the two brought back several large bags of things and began to assign tasks.
On that day, smoke suddenly rose from the sky above this marginal city, and the edge of the city wall was also filled with smoke.
The people in the city did not know what was happening, and they panicked, and the soldiers defending the city were also panicked, and they turned their heads to look around.
Then someone took advantage of the smoke to slip to the city gate.
They took a chainsaw and cut a hole in the gate, through which someone got in and opened it.
At the entrances and exits of the soldiers on both sides of the city gate, some things like cannons were placed.
Zhuang Siyan originally wanted to get some pushpins, but Ye Yuanpei said that people in this era wore homemade mille-feuille bottoms, and the pushpins couldn't be pierced at all, so they were replaced by stepping on guns.
By the time the smoke cleared over and around the city, Ye Yuanpei's people had already mixed into the city.
and quickly rushed into the main military mansion, as well as various important places, and those who caught the command of the official were killed directly.
And the soldiers who came down from the city wall, as soon as they stepped down, there was a "bang" sound, which directly scared them back.
There was no one to command, the situation in the city was out of control again, the people who were originally defending the city panicked, and the people in the city were also jumping chickens and dogs.
The more chaotic the situation, the more advantageous they will be to Ye Yuanpei.
They mingled with the crowd, and in less than a day they had slain all the lords of the city, and all four gates of the city had been occupied.
Standing on the head of the city and shouting, there were already all Ye Yuanpei's people below.
Anritsu is still very strategic, although it is a small town on the edge, it has many important things arranged.
He knew very well in his heart that this was the first line of defense, and once the defense was opened, it would collapse quickly.
Ye Yuanpei also knew that after occupying the small city, he would put the grain, grass, and weapons that belonged to Anli into his own military camp.
There were too many prisoners, and the important people were escorted back to the capital on the road, and the unimportant ones were left to be reorganized, and at the same time, Ye Yuanpei also left the generals to guard here, so as not to suffer the enemy on his back.
A few days later, they resent their troops from the small town, and it was much easier to move on to the next stop than to take the first city.
Although Anli owns these cities, he has never treated the people well, and after Ye Yuanpei came, he held high the banner of the Dasheng Dynasty.
As soon as the common people heard that the emperor was coming to rescue them, they all began to turn against each other and lean towards Ling Tiancheng.
Those who have strong men in the family directly join the battle.
By the time they entered Jincheng, Ye Yuanpei's army had risen from the original seventy or eighty thousand to two hundred thousand, and there were many excellent generals in it.
Of course, a month or two has passed.
For two months, they continued day and night, marching forward to attack the city, while carrying the good news back to the palace.
Ling Tiancheng was also anxious, waiting for their news all the time.
Every time he heard that he had won a city, a fluctuation would rise in his heart, and then he would turn the whole piece over and look at it, trying to find something about Zhuang Siyan.
But in the past two months, Zhuang Siyan didn't write a word to him.
Dozens of towns and cities in southern Xinjiang were taken by Ye Yuanpei in one fell swoop, which was also something An Li never imagined, especially in such a short period of time.
As early as when he captured the first city, An Li already had a bad premonition, but like other officials, he thought that Ye Yuanpei was an official from the north and would not be suitable for the southern war.
In fact, what they expected was not bad, Ye Yuanpei's army had already seen a large number of unadaptable phenomena.
If it weren't for the support of the generals who joined later, this battle would have been impossible to fight a long time ago.
During this time, Zhuang Siyan was also very busy, and her main task was to find medicine from all over the world to treat these people who were not accustomed to water and soil.
It's spring, and it's still cold in the north wearing cotton clothes, but the south is already full of green branches, and the sudden warming weather is very uncomfortable for people who have been in the north for a long time.
And the water here is a little too salty, and they can't get used to it, and the most terrible thing is that if you barely eat it, you will have diarrhea, or other problems.
Within a few days, many people had fallen.
Ye Yuanpei could only give up the speed of attacking Jincheng and devote his energy to treating the wounded.
These people have followed him for a long time, going to the battlefield together, spilling blood, and they all have a fateful friendship, and now they are falling to a foreign land one by one, and he feels very uncomfortable.
"Are these medicines useful, why haven't they improved at all after taking it for so long?" He asked Zhuang Siyan.
Zhuang Siyan said: "It works, but the effect is too slow, it is all traditional Chinese medicine, and it will take ten days and half a month to take effect." ”
