Chapter 561: Who is the opponent
PS: The number of chapters in front of me is wrong.,Now correct it.,It's 561 chapters!
Snowflakes are flying, the north wind is howling, Huang Degong wrapped himself tightly and stood at the gate of the arrow tower above the city gate, frowning and looking at the Qing army not far away in the deployment of troops, it is already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, and seeing that the snow is gradually getting bigger, but the Qing army began to prepare for the siege at this time!
"My lord, there is no movement at the other city gates, only the north gate, it seems that the Qing army is planning to break the city from here!" Weng Zhiqi hurriedly walked over with a walkie-talkie, as for Ma Degong, Tian Xiong and others who had been sent to other city gates to defend, he and Huang Degong were the ones to take the lead here!
Huang Degong nodded silently, picked up the telescope and observed for a while before he said lightly: "It's time to test the water!" ”
"What do you mean, sir?" Weng Zhiqi was a little puzzled!
"It is estimated that Abatai is also idle, come and try the strength of Jingzhou's city defense, or worry that the snow is heavy, and think about breaking it before the heavy snow closes the city, but now it doesn't matter what he thinks, the soldiers will block, and the herald soldiers will prepare to fight!"
"Yes, sir! Do you want to use a mass killer? Weng Zhiqi suddenly smiled, and the corner of Huang Degong's mouth twitched, "It depends on the situation, I estimate that this time is just to test the water, otherwise he will fight the four city gates together, so there is no need for us to take out the family and give it to him at once!" ”
"Maybe the Tartars thought that there was no need to besiege from all sides, and they could break through Jingzhou City from just here", Weng Zhiqi seemed to be smiling, and Huang Degong snorted coldly: "Dreams are beautiful!" Reality is a slap in the face, didn't my brother say that! ”
Weng Zhiqi laughed: "Little Hou Ye often says that!" ”
There were not many people sent by the Qing army to the project, more than 10,000 people, with prisoners pushing the broken door car, climbing ladder, and many crossbows slowly approaching the north gate, Huang Degong took the telescope and looked at it, his brows furrowed. The Qing army has no artillery, which is good news, but the power of the crossbow is also very terrifying, and it can completely suppress the firepower of the defenders in the city"! Summons, change the blast shield, in groups of three! ”
The so-called explosion-proof shield is a large number of transparent police shields purchased by Rwann from later generations, which are much easier to use than the current shields, with a large protective area, light and effortless, and more importantly, transparent, no blind spots. And the strength of the resistance is high, the bow and arrow under the defense of the city are completely stress-free, even the crossbow may not be able to be broken, of course, it is possible to shoot people away with a shield!
As for the three-person group, this is also a defensive tactic discussed by Lu Wang and Huang Degong, one is responsible for holding a shield at the battlement, one is responsible for shooting with crossbows and bows, and the other is responsible for slashing and killing enemies who ascend the city. Belong to the group joint operation!
In the camp of the Qing army, Abatai did not come out to watch the battle, but drank hot tea comfortably in the big tent and looked at a simple map. He didn't care at all about the siege battle outside, a small city like Jingzhou could be taken at any time, and it didn't matter if he couldn't take it today. Anyway, it was just to test the water, first, to exert psychological pressure on the Ming army in the city, and second, to disrupt their plans. As long as the war starts here, if there are reinforcements coming before and after, it means that he has guessed their tactics correctly, and it happens to be in his full set, you must know that he has sent Buck to be the bait in the south, and there are also 20,000 troops in the north to transfer that man.
Turg was not as easy as Abatai, but climbed the high watchtower and watched with clairvoyance, he always felt that something was wrong in his heart, but he couldn't say it, anyway, he felt uneasy.
The Qing army still used the old tactics, using the front of the captives as cannon fodder, pushing the door-breaking car to the siege ladder to the city, and then the army quickly began to charge and climb the ladder to attack the city!
But! The Ming army still has no soft hands, as long as you are close to the city wall, no matter whether you are a prisoner or a Qing soldier, you will be treated the same as shooting, relying on the bow and arrows, killing a place in an instant, making the Qing army's offensive extremely difficult, and at this time the Qing army also came up with a killer weapon, nearly a hundred crossbow cars fired together, and the thick and long and powerful crossbow instantly suppressed the firepower on the city, creating time for the siege team to enter the city!
However, there is no use, and the Qing army that has just climbed to the battlement mouth is blocked by a transparent shield, and the head of the city is cut off in a trance, which is also the most white-hot bloody blade battle, the two sides come and go, you advance and I retreat, and the killing is called a pleasure! However, the Qing army attacked three times in a row and still returned in vain, and the sky was already dark, and the grass was rushing to withdraw the troops!
"How?" Abatai didn't raise his head, he spoke softly, and Turg walked into the tent and sat next to the stove in the cold, "Although the resistance is strong, it is not very difficult, it is almost impossible to attack with four gates, gather the main force to attack fiercely, and with one blow, it will be broken!" The Ming army relied only on bows and arrows, and there was no artillery in the city, but according to the soldiers, they had a new type of shield......"
"Report the ......" Just as Turg was speaking, suddenly a Qing soldier rushed into the tent covered in blood, and fell to his knees with a pop, "Lord Buck was captured, and only a thousand people escaped with the blue flag!" ”
"What!" Abatai and Turg were shocked, stood up, walked up to the Qing soldier and picked him up, "Say, what the hell is going on!" ”
The time of a cigarette has passed, the time of a stick of incense has passed, Abatai is still blinded and speechless for a long time, he can't accept this reality, after entering the customs, in addition to fighting with Bai Tengjiao and others, all the way south unimpeded, who knows that after arriving at the river, it seems to be cursed, Xianxian, Fucheng, Jingzhou, the three cities within a hundred miles, they have almost nothing, but they have lost more than 10,000 soldiers! This is even the worst record in the history of the Qing army!
"How so?" In the middle of the sound, Abatai whispered, and for a moment it seemed to be much older, but Turg suddenly had a spirit, "Quickly order Zad to stop going north, don't be careless!" "Zade is in charge of going north to cut Zhou Yuji and others!
"There must be someone behind this, who can tell me who this person is, who can tell me who my opponent is?" Abatai suddenly hissed and shouted, what an irony, he really doesn't know Lu Wang's name at the moment, because Lu Wang's fame only spreads in big cities such as Beijing, Nanjing, Hangzhou, etc., of course, there are indispensable Qing spies in Beijing, but Abatai has been on the way to enter and plunder in the past few months, and he really hasn't heard of this person, otherwise he can guess who the opponent is in an instant!
"This person must be in Jingzhou City", Turg said coldly: "Maybe he has been facing us since the river, ...... along the way" said Turg suddenly felt chills all over his body, if there was really such an invisible opponent who arranged all this, how terrible it would be!
"You mean, the so-called castle protectors in the river are actually pretending to be gods and ghosts, and all of this is a man-made ......" Abatai also reflected at this moment, his mouth was broken, and his expression was terrified!
"Scare us away in the river, and then use Xianxian as a bait to ambush our people, calculated that it will anger us and others, so he dug a pit in Fucheng and waited for us, and now he has lured us here, but it is ridiculous that we also sent a bait to the door for him to eat, this person is interlocking, it is really terrifying!" Turg's expression was gloomy, and Abatai was equally shocked when he heard this!
"In other words, the bait we sent was already in his calculations, otherwise he wouldn't have set up a trap and waited for Buck to throw himself into the net? In this way, the ability of the Ming army's spies is too amazing! Abatai felt like he was in a cold sweat!
Turg suddenly laughed, "Don't you think there's something strange about Lord Belle? ”
"What's strange?" Abatai frowned!
"This man is thoughtful, and from now on, it seems that he has no less than 100,000 troops in his hands, but he never confronts us head-on, even on the night of the battle, he fled immediately after the battle, hasn't Lord Baylor seen his weakness?" Turg sneered!
Abatai's brows furrowed, half loud, and a smile really appeared on his face, "Holding a large army, he has outstanding resourcefulness, but his combat power is insufficient!" Hahaha! Very good! I was going to divide and eat it, and consume my troops little by little! In that case, how can I do what he wants, but it's a pity that I was frightened by him when I was in the river......" said with a long sigh!
"Report! The spies in the north reported that the Ming army had withdrawn! The herald's news made Abatai and Turg frown at the same time, "Withdrawn? Why do I always feel that our every move is under the watchful eye of the Ming army! ”
"Yes! Buck who went south unknowingly entered the encirclement of others, and Zad in the north retreated as soon as he went north, this, this, how did the Ming army do it", Turg was confused, but no one could answer him to this question!
"Summoning Zade back, giving orders, scattering the spies, I will know every move of the Ming army within a radius of fifty miles, but if there is dereliction of duty, I will not be forgiven!" Abatai's words drifted coldly in the Qing army camp!
