Everyone looked carefully at the sand table, and sure enough, they found this terrain. Pen&Fun&Pavilion www.biquge.info(hua.). Visit:.. With Huoyun Mountain as the center, the terrain is high and low and spreads around, and Fuhugang is located on this slope!

This time, Long San was a little puzzled, looked at Shi Wuce and said, "Military Division, what impact does this terrain have on our war?"

"Of course it has an impact, and it's a big impact!" At this moment, not only the military advisor, but even Tong Xiaofeng saw it, looked at everyone excitedly, and said in his mouth: "From high to low, how to fight and how to win!"

Shi Wuce's wooden stick pointed at Fuhugang, looked at everyone and said: "Taking Fuhugang, we are tantamount to seizing the commanding heights, whether it is to place trebuchets or other long-range attack weapons, our landing point will be much farther than the defenders! More importantly, they dare not use a large amount of fire oil or other liquid weapons, because the consequence of doing so is that in the end, all the liquid will flow into their own side!"

A smile of surprise appeared on everyone's faces, and Xiaobao kept nodding. Everything has advantages and disadvantages, and the two cities support each other, although they can improve their combat effectiveness and form a joint defensive front that wins more with less, but they also become passive because of this, once one city is breached, the other city is also like something in the bag!

Coupled with the special terrain of Fuhugang, the terrain that was originally favorable to Cheongju has become a situation of trapping itself and passive, which is also unexpected by the urban defense of Cheongju and Fuhugang!

With this breakthrough, the rest is easy to fight, how to attack, how to break the defense, the army has accumulated a lot of valuable experience when attacking the five towns in the southwest, so it is easy to arrange, which army should do what it should do.

While discussing, there was a rush of running sound outside, and before I reached the 'door', someone shouted: "I am a scout in Qingzhou, and I have something important to tell the marshal!"

The fairy sheep frowned, and shouted at the tent 'door': "Let him in!"

The curtain was lifted, and a dusty soldier ran in, knelt on the ground, and said to the fairy sheep: "Marshal, General Mo Ping of the Tiger Courage Army, who entered Qingzhou Cheng in the morning, has been beheaded by the Qingzhou guard Langtu and hung on the 'gate' of the southern city to show the public!"

"Ahh

In this way, the Die Hard Army and the Yin Army have already completely broken up! And Mo Zhan's plan to rebel has also been declared aborted! Since there is no way to fight without blood, then it can only fight with knives and guns, but fortunately, after studying the tactics just now, it will soon come in handy!

The question now is, what will the Die Hard do? Is Langtu's move a heroic act or an act of foolishness? What attitude does Yu Chengze, the prefect of Cheongju, have to deal with this matter? These are the conditions that must be understood in order to attack Cheongju!

A large number of scouts were sent out, not only to report on Cheongju City, but also to collect the intelligence of Fuhugang and the Tiger Courage Army, and report it every half an hour!

"Report! The Tigers have sent a thousand-strong team to the south 'gate' of Cheongju City!"

"Report! The Die Hard battalion has sounded the rallying order, and tens of thousands of people have been lined up outside the battalion!"

"Report! On the city wall of Qingzhou, the soldiers are lined up, and 5,000 archers are waiting for them!"

One by one information continued to enter the Xuanjun camp, Xiaobao sat on the handsome chair, looking at the generals standing on both sides of the sand table, his face sinking like water.

Since he had 'handed over' the power to Xianyang, he was relieved to obey Xianyang's arrangement, and unless he saw a major change in the battle situation, he would not hinder Xianyang's command.

The fairy sheep stood beside Xiaobao, keeping his head down and thinking. The soldiers in front of the sand table all looked anxiously at Xiaobao, then at the fairy sheep, and then at the sand table, scratching their ears and cheeks, like a group of monkeys whose tails had been chopped off.

"Order!" Xianyang suddenly shouted, and when several generals heard it, they hurriedly stood solemnly, but they were all happy and looking forward to it, and they were finally going to fight!

Xianyang looked at the dragon horn and said: "Three hours later, the Qilin Corps will launch an attack on Fuhugang, and the others will prepare for battle, and within three hours, the troops will not move!"

Everyone's eyes widened, they were indeed going to fight, but it was three hours later, and they didn't make any preparations at all, so they went directly to Fuhugang to start a battle, how was this battle fought?

But whoever dared not listen to the marshal's order, all the generals responded: "Yes!" and turned around and walked out of the big tent.

When everyone walked out, Xiao Baocai smiled and said: "Within an hour, the Die Hard Army will take action against Qingzhou City, according to common sense, if our Xuan army attacks Fuhugang at this time, it can make the two towns clumsy, it is difficult to support each other, and the smallest sacrifice is exchanged for the greatest victory, why does the marshal have to wait until three hours later?"

Xianyang looked at Xiaobao and said, "Because I am only the marshal of the Xuan Army, but the emperor is the emperor of the world!"

Xiaobao raised his eyebrows, and his eyes were 'revealed' with a puzzled look. But he didn't speak, he knew that the fairy sheep would explain it to him.

Xian Yang sighed, looked at Xiao Bao and said: "Emperor Zun thinks that the attack at that time is the best, because the dispatch of troops at that time can minimize the casualties of the Xuan Army and the Tiger Courage Army, so that no matter how strong the city defense is, it is facing an enemy who knows its roots, and the city is just around the corner!"

Xiaobao nodded, this is his consideration, although it is an inevitable siege battle, but what can be artificially controlled is the number of casualties, and when you can reduce the sacrifice, don't ignore life!

"But Xianyang can only start from the perspective of protecting the Xuan Army, the Tiger Courage Army is not our person after all!" Xianyang looked at Xiaobao with a solemn face and said: "The Qingzhou guards do this, in addition to the possibility of hiding a backhand, there is also a greater purpose, that is, to show their determination! They have sworn to live and die with Qingzhou and will never be surrendered! So this battle will not be so easy and smooth! Three hours later, the sky' The color is already dark, whether it is the defenders of Qingzhou or the defenders of Fuhugang, they are all sleepy and lacking, the magic weapon to be used has been used, and the combat consumption is almost over, and we will be able to successfully break the city if we attack it unprepared!"

Listening to the words of the fairy sheep, Xiaobao also sighed. From the perspective of the Marshal of the Xuan Army, Xianyang's consideration was understandable! He was concerned about how to reduce the casualties of the Xuan Army and obtain greater benefits, and as for the danger that the Tiger Courage Army would face, it was not in his consideration!

After three hours, the siege of the Tigers should have come to an end, and the arrival of darkness made it easier for the Xuan army to hide its figures, so that the enemy could not distinguish the focus of the siege and the deployment of troops. What's more, attacking the city at night can make the enemy's archers lose their aiming role and can only 'shoot' at the bottom!

This is the reason why Xiao Bao is relieved to 'hand' over the entire Xuan army to Xianyang, because he is indeed competent! And if Xiao Bao is replaced to command the battle, he may cause greater casualties because of his own soft-heartedness!

"Well done!" Xiaobao nodded to the fairy sheep, the battle has to be fought like this, it is beneficial to the Xuan army, and if you shouldn't 'worry', don't 'worry', after all, this tiger army declared war on Qingzhou, part of the reason is a family matter, Mo Zhan is to avenge his younger brother!

In addition to the big tent of the Chinese army, Xiaobao called Chihong Liuyun and rushed to the battlefield of Cheongju. Although the Xuan army has not participated in it for the time being, but this battle of Qingzhou still has to be seen with their own eyes, the Xuan army has sent a large number of scouts to keep an eye on this battle, and report it to the Yuan Xiang military division in real time, because the situation encountered by the Tiger Courage Army is what the Xuan army may encounter!

It's a pity that except for Huoyun Mountain and Tianyu Mountain, there is no height in the Cheongju area, but these two mountains are too far away from the city to watch the battle.

Therefore, Xiaobao can only watch from a distance first, occasionally hovering over the battlefield, watching the crowds below, Xiaobao sighs!

This is Cheongju Castle. On the top of the 'gate' of the city wall, the general who defended the city, Langtu, was wearing armor, looking at the swarming Tiger Warriors with his hands behind his back, his face was expressionless, and behind him, four or five commanders also stood motionless with their heads held high.

Not far to their left, there was a mast with a human head hanging from it, it was Mo Zhan's younger brother Mo Ping!

Under the city walls, the drawbridge has been raised, and there is no water under the moat, but there is a thick layer of hay, which is mixed with the strong smell of fire oil!

In the distance, the yellow sand was rolling in, and the 80,000 vanguard troops of the Tiger's Courage Army had already arrived, and the leader was General Mo Zhan!

Xiaobao couldn't have imagined that without the presence of King Shujing, Mo Zhan was already the general of the Tiger Courage Army, commanding the whole army to fight, but now he was acting as the general of the vanguard army, and he didn't know whether to say that he was brave or reckless!

It seems that Mo Zhan and Mo Ping have a deep brotherly relationship, and as soon as his younger brother died, the grief-stricken Mo Zhan personally came to avenge his younger brother!

It's just that what Xiaobao didn't expect was that although there were only more than 20,000 people in the Yin army defending the city, there were more than 50,000 people defending the city, because more than half of the people were Qingzhou people!

In order to prevent the enemy from slaughtering the city after breaking the city, the soldiers and civilians in the border areas generally used the strategy of defending the city with all their troops.

Stationed with the Yin army, the young men distributed weapons, the middle-aged 'women' set up arrow towers, arranged wolf tooth rackets, and transported all kinds of weapons!

There was also a group of old and weak children who had done nothing, squatting in the corners of the city walls, looking at their feet with a dull face. Xiaobao couldn't see their identities, and felt that the existence of these people was a little out of place with the tense preparations above!

Now the defenders of Fuhugang have not moved, and it is estimated that they are also afraid that the Tiger's Courage Army will divide into two ways, even if it is not the Tiger's Courage, the Xuanjun will also look at them with fierce eyes, so that they dare not move!

The Tiger Courage Army soon came, 80,000 iron cavalry troops that originally dealt with Hu Xiaoren, all of them were under the city at this moment, across the moat, and the wasteland outside the city was arrayed, from the sky, the black 'color' soldiers below were in order, first assembled, and then separated according to their respective types and weapons, spreading from the south city 'gate' to the west city 'gate' near the 'gate'!

Looking at his brother's corpse upstairs at the city gate, Mo Zhan's eyes were split, he pulled out his sword at his waist, and was about to rush up, but was stopped by the deputy general next to him!

80,000 people have finished arraying, surrounding the 'gate' of the south city and the 'gate' of the west city, although they have not yet attacked, but the invisible pressure has shrouded everyone's hearts, even those officers and soldiers defending the city have already felt it, their hands are clenched with weapons, and their palms are already sweating!
