Chapter Ninety-Four: Three Days Have Passed (Four More Requests to Follow!) Don't raise it! )

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, three days have passed.

In the past three days, Lu Meng, who surrounded the public security, has not been idle.

He ordered the tens of thousands of men he brought with him to build camps and build all kinds of siege equipment during these three days.

This time Lü Meng attacked Jingzhou, and the soldiers in his hands, plus the people he carried, added up to nearly 200,000 people.

This is also thanks to the convenience of the Yangtze River waterway to transport grain and grass.

Otherwise, in Jiangdong alone, the number of people needed to transport the grain and grass consumed daily by 100,000 troops would have to reach more than 100,000.

And this huge logistical pressure is enough to pull Jiangdong into the abyss of war.

The Yangtze River is really the mother river of Jiangdong.

In order to take Jingzhou without fail, Sun Quan exhausted all the national strength of Jiangdong in order to support Lü Meng to fight this all-over battle.

The battle of public security is like the Battle of Changping during the Warring States Period.

Under the exhaustion of the national strength of the whole country, if Sun Quan can successfully win the public security and then sweep Jingzhou, then his strength will be qualitatively improved.

But if his 100,000 army is under the public security city, it will be like the entire Zhao army was wiped out during the Battle of Changping.

Not to mention how Sun Quan should resist Cao Cao and Liu Bei's attacks from now on, I am afraid that Sun Quan will not even be able to handle the Shanyue barbarians in Jiangdong at that time.

In order to take Jingzhou, Sun Quan finally took out the courage to shoot the tiger in person, and used all his courage to make a big gamble.

And Sun Quan's kind of dedication is putting pressure on Lu Meng on the front line all the time.

Although this kind of pressure is invisible, it will gradually overwhelm Lu Meng over time.

Like all kings throughout the ages, when Sun Quan put all his hopes and all the future of Jiangdong on Lu Meng, Sun Quan also desperately hoped that Lu Meng would make some achievements to show him.

Maybe it's not that Sun Quan doesn't trust Lü Meng, but those Jiangdong families who have almost done their best for this battle, they are worried about their homeland, and they need Lü Meng on the front line to make some achievements as soon as possible, so that they can feel at ease.

Sun Tzu has a saying in the Art of War: Repair the turret, with equipment, three months and then become, and the distance from the eas, and then three months.

Among them, those who are far away from the Tsui are piled up high and go forward, so as to attach their cities also,

Whether it is repairing the turret or the distance, it is a common siege method in this era, but at the same time, it is a long-term siege method.

But fortunately, with the Yangtze River, the mother river of Jiangdong, Lü Meng could continuously transport Jiangdong's siege equipment to the front line through the power of water transportation.

This is also the real reason why Lü Meng will order 100,000 Jiangdong troops to wait for three days.

Just yesterday, many large siege equipment had been transported to the military camp that Lu Meng had just built.

Looking at the many large-scale siege equipment that Sun Quan had brought for him, Lu Meng's heart was full of confidence.

Therefore, just this morning, Lü Meng officially gave the order to attack the city.

Because the east of the city was the main direction of the Jiangdong army, the morning was used as the time point for the siege.

In this way, when the sun rises in the east, the defenders of Jingzhou facing the Jiangdong army will undoubtedly defend the city in the face of the sun, which will greatly affect their sight.

Lu Meng and several lieutenant generals in the army stood on top of the nest car that had been set up, observing the scene in the public security city from a high position.

The nest car is a kind of vehicle used by ancient generals to climb high to observe the enemy's situation.

The high hanging tower on its car is like a bird's nest, so it is called the nest car.

The bottom of the nest car is equipped with wheels that can be pushed.

Two long pillars were erected on the cart with solid wood, and a roller shaft (pulley) was set at the top of the pillar, and a small board house was tied to the roller with ropes.

There are 12 lookout holes on all sides of the slab house, and the outside is covered with raw cowhide to prevent the enemy from destroying it with arrows.

The house can accommodate several people, and it can be raised several feet by roller cart, and the enemy soldiers in the city can be observed during the siege

And now at the height of Lu Meng, it is just convenient for him to directly see the figure of Mi Yang on the city wall.

Looking at the young general standing by his sword in the city wall, Lu Meng's heart was full of mixed emotions.

If this heroic and decisive Mi Yang was born in his Jiangdong, then he Lu Meng would definitely vigorously cultivate him, so that he could serve Sun Quan alone as soon as possible.

But now that Mi Yang, the Zhilan jade tree, is growing in the courtyard of the Han Dynasty, then he, the Wu general, naturally can't let him thrive.

It's like treating Guan Yu.

Lu Meng himself admires Guan Yu a lot, but the positions of the two sides are different, and there will be a day when they will become enemies.

The nest cart erected high in the enemy camp also attracted the attention of Mi Yang on the city wall.

Because it was blocked by the board house of the nest car, Mi Yang couldn't see a few people in the nest car.

But he knew that Lu Meng must be among them.

However, at this time, Mi Yang did not have time to care about Lu Meng in the nest car, and when Lu Meng gave the order to attack the city, the horn of attack in the Jiangdong army had already sounded.

The north wind beats the drums of war.

With the sound of hundreds of high drums, it sounded in the Jiangdong army formation, and hundreds of huge vehicles were slowly pushed out of the Jiangdong army formation.

It is a large platoon used for siege in ancient wars.

Four-wheeled vehicles, row big wood for it, covered with raw cowhide, can accommodate ten people below, back and forth to transport soil and fill trenches, wood and stone can not be injured, the so-called wooden donkey is also.

Under the cover of Yiyi, the Jiangdong soldiers hiding in it continued to approach the rejecting horses outside the moat of the Public Security City.

Long before the arrival of Lu Meng's army, Miyang, who arrived at the public security city nearly a month early, wantonly repaired the fortifications in the public security city.

One of the fortifications he attached the most importance to was the construction of a large number of antlers to resist horses outside the four walls of the city.

Jiangdong has few cavalry, and Mi Yang built these antlers to resist horses not to guard against cavalry.

His purpose was to slow down the enemy's movement by using the large number of antlers outside the moat to slow down the enemy's movement when the Jiangdong army sent soldiers to fill the moat and build a pontoon bridge over the moat.

In this way, if the Jiangdong army wants to successfully fill the moat outside the public security city, it must first clear these antlers and horses.

But under the guarded city, it is not so easy to clear the antlers and horses outside the moat safely and quickly.

Sure enough, when the Jiangdong soldiers hid behind the Yiyi and pushed the Yixu to the outside of the public security moat, their movement was blocked by the large number of antlers and horses.

And in order to clear this large number of antlers and horses, the Jiangdong soldiers hidden in and behind the slug had to appear.

And as soon as they appeared, Mi Yang, who had been observing the movements of the Jiangdong soldiers, immediately ordered the Jingzhou soldiers on the city wall to release arrows one after another.

Under Mi Yang's order, arrows rained down on the public security city wall for a while.

Mi Yang ordered the arrows to be released, but his main purpose was not to kill and injure those Jiangdong soldiers who were advancing, but to destroy those soldiers.

He ordered the Jingzhou soldiers to release rockets!

The exterior of the stool was wrapped in raw cowhide, which was one of the main means of defending against enemy fire attacks in this era.

But this does not mean that the inside of the scab is also protected by raw cowhide.

When the oil-coated rockets turned into the scythes of death fell on the Koto soldiers who were the forerunners.

Most of the Jiangdong soldiers who wore cloth armor and were not protected by raw cowhide were surrounded by flames.

Fire and water are ruthless, and when these two things fall on you, they can also cause a person's panic the most.

Seeing that a raging fire began to rise on his body, the first reaction of anyone was to try to extinguish the fire on his body.

And those Jiangdong soldiers were afraid of the rockets on the city wall, so most of the hundreds of Jiangdong soldiers chose to hide in the fire extinguishing.
