Gou Jian, who led the first army, although he was apprehensive in his heart, but at the same time he was excited, and there was a sense of pleasure in holding power.

The purpose is very simple, whether it is successful or not, to enjoy the thrill of this power. Therefore, Gou Jian rode a high-headed horse, pointed fingers in the First Army, and directly assigned some disobedient regiment commanders to the front line.

And this brainless move laid the groundwork for Gou Jian's defeat.

After rectifying the First Legion, Gou Jian rode on his horse at this time and shouted at the First Legion below, "Brothers, this battle is very important, if we win it, we all have a light on our faces." ”

"At that time, the glory and wealth will be inexhaustible, but if someone grinds foreign work for me in the process of attacking, or even retreats without a fight, then don't blame the sword in my hand for not recognizing the brothers!"

Then Gou Jian raised his knife and waved, and the army left the garrison camp and went straight to the north.

At this time, the eldest prince in the first acropolis in the north, when the army left the camp, the eldest prince had already received the news, but at this time, there were not many available people in the hands of the eldest prince.

However, fortunately, there are still a lot of soldiers in hand, and they are guarded by the city, so I believe there is no problem.

Gou Jian, with the first legion, traveled for 1 day, and when it was dark, he arrived more than ten miles away from the Acropolis and began to set up camp. Wait for siege equipment and supplies in the back.

However, Gou Jian also knew in his heart that he was a few catties and a few taels, so he didn't take advantage of the darkness to launch an attack as soon as he came up, thinking that after the siege equipment and everything were in place, he would directly launch a wave of surprise attacks and directly take the acropolis.

So Gou Jian was not in a hurry, but the eldest prince was a little anxious at this time, the enemy army had already arrived, and the eldest prince originally wanted to take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold and directly launch a wave of sneak attacks to catch them off guard.

It's just that as soon as the idea of the eldest prince was proposed, it was refuted by several old Jiangs. Several old Jiang thought that the eldest prince did not understand the art of war, and this sudden raid was really a risky move, so they resolutely disagreed with the surprise attack.

So in this way, the eldest prince lost a chance to directly repel Gou Jian, so the eldest prince paid too many soldiers to defend the acropolis.

Compared with the idea that the eldest prince was ready to steal the camp, Gou Jian's heart was too wide, and when the army set up camp, he didn't expect the enemy to come to steal the camp, so when the soldiers built the big tent.

Gou Jian got in, took out the snacks and began to drink.

One of the regiment commanders met with him and thought that he would strengthen the vigilance at night to prevent the enemy from stealing the camp, but this idea was scolded back by Gou Jian.

With Gou Jian's thoughts, the eldest prince was already frightened and overwhelmed when he saw his hundreds of thousands of troops, and he dared to go out of the city to steal the camp, but in view of his good intentions, he just scolded and asked the regiment commander to do what he should do.

There was nothing to say all night, and the eldest prince did not come out to steal the camp, which made Gou Jian even more embarrassed, thinking that the eldest prince was afraid of himself, so he did not dare to go out of the city to steal the camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, at this time, Gou Jian sat lazily in the upper position, his whole body was like no bones, he sat on the chair, and the head of the regiment who came to the meeting was full below.

It's just that less than half of them belong to the capable old leaders, and many old leaders are already qualified to enter this big account.

At this time, Gou Jian looked at the regimental commander he met last night, his mouth was tucked under his ears, and he said coldly, "My grand master, did the enemy come to steal the camp last night?"

This sarcastic voice made the regiment commander who met last night a little unhappy, but he was not happy, so he still stood up and hugged his fists and said, "General Gou Gaojian, I am served." ”

Seeing this, Gou Jian was even more stunned, waved his hand to the head of the regiment who stood up, motioned for him to sit down, and said again, "The eldest prince has now become a lost dog, how can he have the courage to come out and steal the camp!"

"Stealing camps? hahaha... Now it's a joke, a big joke, a dead dog-like existence, what are you afraid of him doing, and when the siege equipment is ready, we will directly attack the city and let the soldiers below rest. ”

"Don't attack the city then, tell me that you are tired and have no strength, since we are going to attack the city, take it down for me in one go, so that the emperor can see, our first army is worthy of its name, have you heard it!"

"It's... Subordinates obey!"

In this way, the first meeting of the Chinese army's big tent ended hastily, and no siege plan was formulated, but everyone was hastily rested and saved up strength.

After going out, the regiment commanders shook their heads, knowing that the siege was not a run, and it was not a dead run that could be exhausted after resting for two days.

And this siege is disciplined, it is necessary to pay attention to strategy, who attacks first, who assists, when the archer releases the arrows, etc., are all exquisite, but this general seems to see the siege too simple.

It's just that no one reminded me of anything, so as not to be scolded, what are you doing to touch that moldy head, so everyone just shook their heads and went into their own big tents to rest.

However, the eldest prince is actively preparing for the war, and several veterans who escaped with the eldest prince, if you want to talk about the shortcomings, that is, the lack of courage, but the experience is sufficient.

So when the eldest prince held a garrison meeting, the eldest prince couldn't interject at all, so he could only sit stupidly on the main seat and listen to several veterans talking endlessly.

However, I have to say that veterans have the benefits of veterans, and after a few hours of discussion, how to defend has been carefully discussed, which can be described as foolproof.

After the meeting was adjourned, the soldiers of the entire Acropolis began to move, and everyone except those who were on guard on the city wall participated in the transportation of supplies.

Therefore, the thunder stones, rolling wood, fire oil, feather arrows and other material resources used to defend the city were continuously transported from the city defense warehouse to the city wall, waiting for the start of the war.

The defenders of the city here had a busy day, while the besiegers rested for a day in style, and it was not until the evening that the logistics supplies were fully delivered to the front line.

Including dozens of siege ladders and wooden ladders to build cities, as well as stone-throwing vehicles.

Early the next morning, Gou Jian, who had washed up, put on brand new armor, opened the curtain of the big tent, and walked out.

Then the guards were ordered to beat the drums, and the whole army was assembled.

In a moment, the 400,000-strong army was all ready to go, and the siege equipment and other equipment were also ready and placed in front of the army.

At this time, Gou Jian rode the blackened war horse, stood in front of the army, drew his saber, and shouted directly, "Whether you can break the city today or not is up to you, so I hope you don't give me timidity." ”

"I have already made it clear to your Majesty that the regiment that is the first to attack the city wall will be rewarded by everyone, and those who attack the city wall will be promoted to the third rank, and those who are timid will even turn around and flee. ”

"Your Majesty also said, for such a person, it doesn't matter if you kill them directly, I will watch from behind, if that regiment runs slowly, then I'm sorry, don't blame me, the commander of the regiment, for being ruthless. ”

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, everyone also had a day off yesterday, now the drums are sounding and the war is going on!"

With Gou Jian's words, there were 9 carriages behind the large army, and 9 rhino skin drums were set up on them.

The 400,000 army spread out like this, pushing the siege equipment, and walked towards the acropolis step by step.

And when the drums sounded here, the eldest prince was dressed in military uniforms, and several veterans also followed in armor, and walked into the tower on the city wall.

And all the soldiers defending the city have stood on the city wall in batches, and the main attack is the south city gate, and the east and west city gates do not mean that they will not be attacked, so the entire defending soldiers stood all the way over.

One by one, holding weapons, stood there very seriously, looking at the black pressure on the opposite side, and pressed over to this side.

When the sun was high, Gou Jian and his large team of men and horses had advanced to the south gate of the acropolis less than 1 kilometer, and the defenders standing on the city wall could already see the tall siege ladder.

At this time, Gou Jian clamped the belly of the horse, followed a path let by the soldiers, walked in front of the whole team, and walked outside the city gate like this, without speaking, riding a horse and turning in circles.

In this way, not only the soldiers standing on the city wall looked confused, but even the eldest prince and those veterans looked at Gou Jian who was circling in circles below with a confused expression.

Of course, the generals of the First Legion also don't know why, and they don't know what this legion commander is doing there.

At this time, Gou Jianzai muttered, "Paralyzed dead dog, why hasn't anyone asked yet, I'm dizzy." ”

It turned out that Gou Jian carefully followed the emperor's teachings and said that he must call for battle before fighting, and it is best to let the other party open his mouth to ask questions first, so that the opponent's momentum will be shorter, which is conducive to his own siege.

This is called psychological warfare, so Gou Jian implemented the teachings of Emperor Wynn very well, but this action made everyone cry and laugh.

That's why Gou Jian rode a horse and kept going around in circles. And the first to hold back was a gray-bearded veteran, who reached out and grabbed the strong bow in the hand of a soldier next to him, and drew out his feather arrow.

Then he directly bent his bow and aimed at Gou Jian, and shot an arrow at Gou Jian, but it was not aimed at Gou Jian.

I only heard the sound of feather arrows, and flew towards Gou Jian under the city wall.

"Smack..."

With a snap, an arrow was slanted into the ground, and it was less than 1 meter away from the position of the horse's hoof, and the tail of the arrow was still trembling.

This time it can choke Gou Jian, if this is on time, isn't it an arrow to shoot himself to death? Suddenly Gou Jian was frightened into a cold sweat.

It's not good that this veteran walked to the edge of the city wall after shooting the arrow, and shouted at Gou Jian, "Who is here?

Gou Jianqiang endured the urge to urinate, his legs on the saddle shook slightly, and when he heard the question, he had to say, "I am Gou Jian, the new commander of the First Legion, and I asked your lost dog to come out and speak." ”

As soon as these words came out, not only the face of this veteran changed, but the faces of all the soldiers who heard the words changed, including the eldest prince, of course, but the eldest prince's face changed and returned to normal.

Then the eldest prince stopped inking, walked directly to the edge of the city wall, and said to Gou Jian, "I am the lost dog you said, I don't know what General Gou has to say to the emperor?"

It's just that as soon as the eldest prince's words came out, Gou Jian, who was unprepared, was stunned, Gou Jian originally planned that if someone scolded back, Gou Jian would scold him back, presumably with his own scolding skills, no one could be beaten.

If you are angry with a few veterans or something, or make those soldiers defending the city lose their minds, then it would be the best, but the admission of the great prince broke all plans.
