"What? Reinforcements haven't arrived yet? ”

The lord of Songzhou City was surprised to receive the report of his own soldiers, how long has it been, Songzhou has been surrounded by water, the Tang army's daily offensive is unabated, and several times he has attacked the city, fortunately, he arrived in time and pressed back, and in the past half a month, his losses have been huge, and the residents of the city have been acting as soldiers on the wall, but the 50,000 reinforcements have not yet arrived, according to the distance, it should have arrived five days ago, and the same doubts are also in Duan Zhixuan's Chinese army camp, The scouts he sent to monitor the movement of reinforcements did not find the other party's reinforcements, all of which seemed so weird, but for Duan Zhixuan, this was a good thing, at least he still had time to attack Songzhou City, although he had not yet attacked it, but he judged that it was not far from breaking the city. What they didn't know was that ten days ago, in the same place, almost at the same time, the human trafficker Xue Rengui wiped out the remaining 30,000 reinforcements, Lu Dongzan's 50,000 reinforcements were killed more than 30,000 and more than 10,000 captured, of course, all of them were sold by Xue Rengui as slaves.

"Report, Li Yong, the captain of the scum battalion, has something to report."

"Li Yong? How did he get here? Let him in. ”

Li Yong's identity, Duan Zhixuan and Niu Jinda know, this time it is the meaning of the saint to let him come, it is nothing more than to gild him, so that he can be promoted later, after all, he is the future son-in-law of the saint, but before they set off, they were specially called to their home by Li Jing, and told them that if the war is difficult, they can ask Li Yong, maybe there is a strange trick, but both of them are veteran generals in the army, how can they look at a teenage hairy boy, so they have not taken this matter to heart, Later, Songzhou City could not be broken for a long time, so he forgot about him, but he took the initiative to find it, which made them very puzzled, but for the sake of the saint and Li Jing's face, Duan Zhixuan still met this Li Yong and saw what he wanted to say.

"See the General."

"Get up."

"General Xie."

Li Yong gave Duan Zhixuan a military salute of kneeling on one knee, after all, this is still his biggest, and he is his subordinate, this salute is still good.

"I don't know what happened when Captain Li came to find Ben?"

Duan Zhixuan frowned when he looked at Li Yong's appearance, because Li Yong was too young, as he thought in his heart, are you a hairy boy worthy of talking in front of me? If you don't find a good father-in-law, you don't even have the qualifications to be a big soldier, Li Yong also saw that Duan Zhixuan was unhappy with him in his eyes, but he didn't mind, because he had long known that Xue Rengui had eliminated the reinforcements that supported Songzhou, and now for Duan Zhixuan, he has been relieved of his worries, but he has nothing to say in his heart when he looks at this kind of refueling tactic every day, that is, to fill it with human lives, not to mention the low efficiency, he can break the city of Songzhou, he really can't hold it back today, so he took the initiative to find him, Because he really didn't want to see so many innocent soldiers sent to their deaths again.

"General, forgive the boy for being rude, I know that I am a humble official, and if you want to punish me, I can't help it, but I still have to say some things, is the general still ready to use this tactic of sending people to attack the city?"

"Wow~" All the generals present were in an uproar, looking at this young man incredulously, but Duan Zhixuan asked him as if he was not angry.

"Then I don't know what Captain Li's good plan is?"

Although Duan Zhixuan was not angry on his face, he was already angry in his heart, thinking that if he was not a saint, Lao Tzu would have pulled you out and cut you down, who do you think you are? But Li Yong's next words made him completely furious.

"Hehe~ You are the main general, you ask a captain, don't you think you are joking?"

Okay, you kid is here to entertain Lao Tzu, Duan Zhixuan instantly turned into a Super Saiyan, and slapped his palm heavily on the table.

"Bold, you are a small lieutenant, you ignore the superiors, you have no good strategy but you are wasting the general's time, what should you be guilty of?"

Li Yong seemed to ignore the angry Duan Zhixuan and said directly.

"When did I say I had no choice? It's just that I can't help but stand up with your tactics, just your way of playing, even if you break through Songzhou City, how many people are left? We are still facing Lu Dongzan's counterattack, when the time comes, will you have enough troops? ”

Duan Zhixuan was choked by Li Yong's words and couldn't speak, because what he said was right, this kind of refueling tactic is something that all generals are unwilling to use, even if you capture the other party, but you have suffered heavy losses, although now I don't know why Tubo's reinforcements have not arrived for a long time, but just like Li Yong said, he broke through Songzhou City, can the troops in his hands withstand the counterattack of Tubo? No one can tell him this answer, because he can't predict it himself, seeing Li Yong's appearance, he feels as if he really underestimated this kid, is Li Jing right? What Duan Zhixuan thought in his heart, Li Yong didn't know, Li Yong just took out a piece of paper from his arms.

"This is my improved stone throwing drawing, there are craftsmen in the army, it should not be difficult to make it, the power of this catapult should be able to smash Songzhou City, in addition, I have a suggestion, at that time, the general will attack Songzhou City with a catapult, and secretly ambush a team outside the city, as long as the city gate is smashed open, this team will rush into the city, to buy time for the army attacking behind, as for how to ambush this team and use that team, I want to use my scum battalion, we have experience in this area, as for the catapult and my suggestion, the general thinks it is feasible, I'll arrange it, and if it doesn't work, I just don't say it, I just want more soldiers to go back alive to see their relatives. ”

After listening to Li Yong's words, the audience was silent, Duan Zhixuan looked at the drawings in Li Yong's hand, and kept thinking about whether to believe him? In the end, he still chose to gamble, even if he failed, there was nothing to lose.

"Okay, I'll take a gamble with you, just according to your wishes, if you break through Songzhou, Ben will give you the first credit."

"That's it, give two days, and the general will definitely be satisfied when the time comes."

Li Yong turned around and left the camp with the drawings, and gave an order to the craftsmen in the army to make catapults according to the drawings.

"A few masters, from now on, how many planes can be driven out by the day after tomorrow?"

"This catapult is easy to make, and there are a lot of materials, so it can probably drive out twenty seats."

"That's it, masters, if you need anything, I'll send someone to help you."

After Li Yong arranged for them to have 200 soldiers, he said goodbye to the craftsmen, and then Li Yong arranged for 1,000 soldiers to collect the boulders, and finally he returned to his scum camp.

"The collection of the scum camp~"

The soldiers of the scum battalion who have been trained for several months have become accustomed to such a gathering, looking at these seven hundred and fifty soldiers, it turned out that they were tall, short, fat and thin, and now they are still the same, but they are no longer fat and thin, and they have long been each with a strong atmosphere, Li Yong nodded with satisfaction and said.

"Today I took over a task from the general, that is, the day after tomorrow, we will be a death squad, attack Songzhou City to buy time for the brother troops behind, when the time comes, including me, some of you will die, and even we may die, if you don't want to participate in this operation, you can quit now, I Li Yong will definitely not embarrass you, but I have a word to ask you, why do we call the scum battalion? Are you really scumbags? ”

"It's not ~ it's not ~ "

"Okay, since you're not scumbags, do any of you quit?"

"No~No~"

"Are you afraid of death?"

"Don't be afraid~Don't be afraid~Kill~"

The mood and morale of the scum camp were suddenly aroused by Li Yong, and Duan Zhixuan and Niu Jinda, who saw this scene in the distance, were also taken aback.

"I can't imagine that this kid really has a set, I think we underestimate him."

"Yes, the handsome man sees people with a vision that you and I can't compare."

Li Yong asked Li Tiezhu to take the people of the scum camp to sneak out of the camp late at night, and began to dig a trench outside Songzhou City 400 meters away from the city gate, and Li Yong instructed those sergeants in the camp how to use the catapult, under several experiments, there was no problem with the catapult made, and those sergeants also understood how to use it, in fact, the structure of the catapult is very simple, it is nothing more than using the principle of levers to throw the boulder out, The angle problem can't be on the counterweight problem at the other end, as long as you grope a few times, you can find a direction, Li Yong will simply explain to them, after all, it also involves parabolic things, how can he explain it clearly, the scum camp dug a trench all night, before dawn will dig out the trench with a black cloth, and then cover it with mud, so that people can't notice it, everything is tense and arranged, Li Yong in the middle of the night on the second day, The heavily armed scum battalion took advantage of the night to sneak into the trench dug last night, and then did a good job of covering up and waiting for tomorrow's attack, everyone was nervous and couldn't sleep all night, in the early morning, they could hear the sound of the Tubo people in the city beginning to assemble, and Duan Zhixuan led his army to begin to assemble, the defenders of Songzhou City nervously watched the Tang army camp in the distance began to assemble, knowing that they were going to attack the city again today, the Tubo lord was even more anxious, and the reserves of food and weapons in the city were still very sufficient, But there are not enough people, although those residents have been caught up by him to defend the city wall, but the residents are residents, how can they compare to real soldiers, and the damned reinforcements don't know where to go, it's like disappearing from the world.

"Look, General, what is that?"

He looked up at the Tang army's formation, and the mountain-like things were pushed out of the Tang army's camp, and he couldn't help but panic in his heart, because the Tang army's weapons and equipment were better than theirs, and all kinds of siege methods were even more varied, which was the reason for his serious losses.

"Is it time to test fire?"

"General, it's all ready."

"Then start the test firing."

Twenty towering catapults began to load boulders, and the test firing was also taught to them by Li Yong, because only after one test firing can they know what the angle and distance to adjust are, and the catapult loaded with the boulders is ready to go, Duan Zhixuan shouted loudly.

"Put~"

"Buzz~Buzz~" After the catapults loaded with boulders let go of the restraint rope, huge stones flew to Songzhou City in a parabola, Li Yong, who was hiding in the trench, was praying, don't let him meow here, the heavens seemed to hear his prayers, not a single boulder smashed into him, but all flew into Songzhou City, the Tubo defenders of Songzhou City were instantly frightened by the flying boulders, and the houses in the city were smashed by the boulders, Duan Zhixuan and everyone saw that the giant catapult was so powerful, and the morale was greatly boosted.

"Adjust the weights and stone those dog beeps."

The adjusted catapult began the second round of launches, this time it accurately smashed on the Songzhou city wall, and the soldiers who couldn't dodge were directly smashed into pulp, and the tall and strong city wall made a loud bang when it was thrown by the boulders again and again, which made Duan Zhixuan and the others very happy.

"Smash, give it to Lao Tzu, smash these bastards, and the ones in the back, hurry up and get stones."

Although the strong city wall of Songzhou City was not smashed, but a boulder accurately hit the city gate, the heavy city gate was carried into the city by the boulder, and the soldiers guarding the city gate were also stoned to death, seeing that the city gate was smashed open, Li Yong and his scum battalion soldiers who were hiding in the trench opened the cover, pulled out their long knives and rushed towards the city gate, seeing that Li Yong had already started to act with his scum battalion, he immediately launched an order to the army to attack the whole army, and the Tang army that had been holding back for so many days poured into Songzhou City like a flood, The Tubo soldiers hiding in the city wall saw that Li Yong's scum camp below was approaching the city gate, and hurriedly came out to shoot arrows at the scum and threw stones and fire oil, one after another The soldiers of the scum battalion rushed forward fearlessly, even if they were shot by a sharp sword, they endured the pain and continued to rush, even if they were ignited by the fire oil, they would die under the city gate, and the courage of the scum camp not to be afraid of death made the army coming from behind see it.

"Kill~Avenge the brothers of the scum camp~"

"Kill~"

"Catapult, fuck me and smash it to death, smash this group of bastards~"

Duan Zhixuan saw Li Yong and his scum battalion fall under the attack of the enemy one after another, his eyes were red, and he ordered angrily, those soldiers who carried the boulders accelerated the speed of handling, and the throwing speed of the catapult also accelerated, and the Tubo soldiers who attacked on the smashed city wall could not come forward, Li Yong and his scum battalion also took advantage of this gap to rush into the city gate, and strangled together with the Tubo soldiers who blocked them, and the chasing army in the rear desperately accelerated to rush to the city gate, due to the distance, when they rushed to the city gate, Li Yong and his scum camp are not much left, the living people are covered with blood and wounds, and even the dead soldiers are holding the Tubo soldiers before they die, some of them have a few spears stuck in their bodies and die without putting down the long knives in their hands, and the Tang army who saw all this was like a mad beast, strangling the Tubo soldiers who were still preparing to attack the injured scum soldiers, and Niu Jinda even cut a centurion into two pieces with a knife.

"Kill, avenge the dead scum camp brothers, kill all these Tubo dogs~"

After Li Yong hacked to death a Tubo soldier in front of him, he gasped and watched the army rush into Songzhou City, so far Songzhou City was broken, Li Yong looked at the dead scum camp soldiers, and roared loudly.

"Brothers, do you see that? Songzhou City is broken, we succeeded~"
