Black smoke billowed from the head of Panyu City, Duan Shao, Hu Luguang, Gao Jishi, and Wu Mingche came to the front line to supervise the battle, and they were each responsible for a city wall.

Specific problems, specific analysis, the so-called siege of three queyi, is just to leave a way back for the enemy, but now almost all parts of Lingnan have fallen, Nanchen only has Panyu City, where can Chen Baxian retreat.

Chen Ba first made up his mind to hold on to the city and hand over the retreat to the enemy, that is, he was sure that the northern soldiers could not withstand the high temperature in the summer in Lingnan, and there would be an epidemic of epidemics.

Gao Cheng simply let the four generals under his command compete with each other to see who can break the city first.

Not to mention Wu Mingche, since the fight against Gao's Jianyi, Duan Shao, Hu Luguang, and Gao Jishi have been competing in secret.

Especially after Gao Cheng took power, everyone knew that these three people, as the initial Wuwen and Sanwu team of King Xiaogao, were the first in the Japanese army, and they must be one of the three, and even the older generation of generals had to avoid their edge.

Under Gao Cheng, there was only one Murong Shaozong who had been the commander of the party, except for the three of them.

There has always been a competitive relationship between the three of them, but there has never been a chance for them to compete fairly like this siege of Panyu.

The so-called intimacy is different, Duan Shao, Hu Luguang, and Gao Ji's status, Wu Mingche is beyond reach.

As a newcomer, he didn't want to get involved in this competition.

robbed the limelight, maybe he would have to be jealous of the three of them, Gao Cheng and Duan Shao and others have been friends since childhood, of course they know that the three of them are not narrow-minded people, but Wu Mingche is not clear-minded.

Or Gao Cheng was worried about him going, and at the same time encouraged, no matter whose command was the first to break the city, that is, for the first merit of this battle, the king will be crowned with food, and the king will be given the king.

With the temptation of the prince, Wu Mingche didn't care about the relationship between his colleagues, naturally like Duan Shao and the others, he went to the front line to supervise the battle, day and night.

Fortunately, Panyu is said to be the capital of Nanchen, but it is not a strong city, after all, Nanchen has only been established for a short time, Panyu is the scale of the state city, or the state city of Lingnan, in the eyes of the northern soldiers who are accustomed to Jinyang, Luoyang and other heroic cities, it is not an insurmountable existence.

While Gao Cheng was besieging Panyu from all sides, he was also preparing to flood the city.

In the past, he seldom considered attacking the city with water, intersecting with digging tunnels and building earth mountains, and the damage of water attack was too great, and it was not only the people in the city who were affected.

But now there is no time to pile up dirt mountains, dig tunnels and deal with the Panyu defenders, and as the date of summer approaches day by day, Gao Cheng can't take care of much.

In view of this, Gao Cheng had to order Duan Shao and the other four to suspend the siege and turn to prepare for the water attack.

At this time, it was the Xijiang River, that is, the flood period of the Pearl River, seeing that Gao Cheng's intention to take water attack was becoming more and more obvious, and the Panyu city wall was not strong, Chen Baxian was anxious.

He had the intention of sending soldiers out of the city to destroy, but the Qi army was heavily guarded, and there were cavalry soldiers roaming outside the city, so there was no chance to get close to the dam.

Because Gao Cheng sent a large number of sentinels to monitor the four gates of Panyu, working in shifts day and night, Chen Baxian couldn't even find the opportunity to go out of the city and attack at night.

Seeing the water level rising, knowing that if he continued to trap Panyu, he would only feed the fish and turtles, Chen Baxian decided to fight hard.

In the ninth year of Zhaode, on March 28, Chen Baxian led the army out of the city to set up a battle, wanting to fight a decisive battle with the Qi army.

Gao Cheng couldn't ask for this, he was surrounded by elite soldiers and strong generals, how could he be afraid of Chen Baxian's less than 100,000 people with more than 200,000 foot riders.

But the decisive battle of commanding more than 200,000 troops, even Gao Cheng was the first time, the original battle of Xitong Pass was operated by Gao Huan, and Gao Cheng played more of the role of a military advisor.

Gao Cheng took the Gao Ji style department as the vanguard, Wu Mingche as the reserve, and Hu Luguang commanded 30,000 cavalry soldiers, living on the two wings.

For the sake of safety, Duan Shao assisted himself and lived in the middle army, and the Chinese army was composed of Duan Shao's troops and Hu Luguang's foot soldiers.

In this battle, Gao Cheng did not include Xian Ying's soldiers in the battle sequence, but ordered them to stay in the camp and guard the baggage.

Of course, with Gao Cheng's suspicious character, there must be a secret sentry outside the camp to monitor the movements of the soldiers under Xian Ying's command.

】

The reserve army of more than 40,000 soldiers under Wu Mingche was to prevent the rebellion of the soldiers, and Gao Cheng did not think that the decisive battle with Chen Baxian needed to use the reserve army.

His confidence didn't come out of nowhere, but was built up from battle to battle.

It's just that it is said that Duan Shaofu left Gao Cheng, but Xiao Gao Wang has actually handed over the command of this decisive battle to him.

Gao Cheng is self-aware, resourceful and flexible, Duan Shao may not be better than himself, but he is bound to be inferior to Duan Shao when he marches and arranges the battle, and between the two decisive battles.

King Xiao Gao had been following Murong Shaozong to learn the art of war for a period of time, which could not be compared to Duan Shao's study of military books.

Gao Cheng has never really commanded the decisive battle of the large army, and Duan Shao is also the new daughter-in-law on the sedan chair, the first time, the tension in his heart is self-evident.

Duan Shao knew that after Gao Cheng's years of hard work, with the mass foundation of the Northern Qi regime, even if he was defeated in this battle, he would not shake the foundation of his rule, and even if there was not much chaos, Chen Ba would not be able to eat so many prisoners first.

But he also understands that if he really loses, he will never have a second chance to be ashamed.

After calming his breath as much as possible, after symbolically asking Gao Cheng, Duan Shao gave orders one after another.

On the high platform, the flags were unfurled, and the drums were thunderous.

Under the cover of the cavalry on both wings, the front army of Gao Ji style marched towards the Chen Ba first army formation.

The first to decide the winner was the battle between the cavalry of the two sides, and in front of the 30,000 cavalry of the Northern Qi Dynasty, a small number of cavalry of the Southern Chen were crushed into powder.

Of course, Chen Baxian knew the impact of the Northern Qi cavalry, and if he dared to go out of the city for a decisive battle, he must have been prepared, that is, to imitate the ancients and defend with a chariot formation.

Hu Luguang led the cavalry to gallop and circled around Chen Ba's first army, but he never found a breakthrough, so he had to open the road for Gao Jishi, and killed the enemy with a bow from a distance.

All fear comes from lack of firepower, and in Gao Cheng's opinion, such a long-range attack method as bow loss is the firepower in his eyes.

Gao Cheng's emphasis on long-range attacks does not need to be repeated, when he was still a prince, he only had 30,000 Gyeonggi soldiers under his command, and he had the idea of firing ten thousand arrows at once.

Therefore, once in power, in addition to the special bow troops, the Northern Qi cavalry were equipped with horse bows.

The salvo doesn't need to be on target, the big guy pulls the bow in one direction.

Under Hu Lvguang's order, 30,000 cavalry soldiers have collected their sabers, or abandoned their riding guns, took off the horse bow on their shoulders, and the arrows pointed directly at the Chen army's military formation.
