The first battle of Yingzhou Mansion is finally about to start. The 2,000 subordinate troops led by Nan Mingtu did not attack the city directly, but were several miles away from the city, and they bombarded the city.

Such a siege method made the Yingzhou troops in the city full of astonishment, and they couldn't raise their heads with artillery fire. If you attack the city in hand-to-hand combat.

The government army of Yingzhou Mansion believed that they would definitely be able to kill the army by surprise. After all, the siege of the city and the battle of the city. The defenders of the city must have an absolute advantage.

The besiegers are afraid that before they reach the city wall, they will almost let the defenders kill all of them. Another said that there were 2,000 people, even if 20,000 were against the 5,000 defenders, it was estimated that it would not be enough for people to stuff their teeth.

But now the tactics of the Zidi army have directly defeated the 5,000 troops defending the city. They hid in the corners of the city walls, looking at their children from a distance, their eyes full of anger.

"Adjutant General, has the rescue signal been sent?! Did the people sent out rush out...... "In the corner of the city wall, the generals defending the city were a little angry and ruined by the humanity of their subordinates.

"Back to the general, the signal has already been sent, and the soldiers sent out to rescue have all rushed out, and we are now waiting to see these children and soldiers are now swallowed by us!"

"Very good...... Let's just wait...... The army of 30,000 disciples is around, although we only see more than 2,000 in front of us, but those 30,000 must be in ...... If you want to play tactics with Ben General, you are still tender, but we have 70,000, and we will surround you to death......"

With the triumphant voice of the general. The first round of shelling stopped. The generals hurriedly went to check the casualties on the city walls.

After a round of shelling, although everyone hid in time, there were nearly 100 casualties.

The accuracy of the opposing gunners surprised and frightened the soldiers defending the city. Most of these soldiers who died were directly hit by artillery shells.

Even if they hid in the corners of the city wall, the cannonballs were like long eyes, and they fell directly on the place where they were hiding.

How would they have known that the artillerymen were bombing these places. If it weren't for their fortifications, I'm afraid that the casualties caused by the artillery bombardment would be even greater.

The general looked at the corpses of the dead and wounded soldiers, his face was full of anger, and before he could touch the enemy, they had killed more than a hundred people.

If the other party keeps bombarding like this, it is estimated that 5,000 people will not be enough for people to bomb and kill.

However, he felt that the other party's artillery fire capacity could not be so sufficient, otherwise, no matter how strong their city was, it was estimated that it would not be able to withstand such a bombardment.

On the other side, after the first round of bombardment, after forcing the defenders in the city to call for help, Nan Mingtu stopped the bombardment.

As long as the goal is achieved, it will only be a waste of shells if it continues to be bombarded. Although the technology for the production of artillery shells has improved, it cannot withstand too much waste.

On the other side, the troops blocked by the Twelve Roads also entered their respective positions. Among them, a team of 2,000 Yelang warriors led by Beiqiongfang guarded the road to the aid of the strongest city.

Beiqiongfang chose the best place to ambush, surrounded by a V-shape, which looked like a pocket.

He did not put everyone in the ambush position, the front ambushed a thousand people, and the other thousand moved to the rear.

These 1,000 people are used to cut off the back of the reinforcements, as long as these reinforcements are completely packed into this pocket, and then, 2,000 people directly wrap them in dumplings.

It's just that it is a bit difficult to make dumplings for nearly 7,000 people with 2,000 people, but the terrain chosen by the Beiqiong side is the most favorable for positional warfare.

As long as the position is guarded, a situation of closing the door and beating the dog will be formed. Not to mention two thousand against seven thousand, even two thousand against twenty thousand, it is possible to destroy the enemy.

Time passed little by little, and at the beginning of the siege of Nanmingtu, the first city sent a rescue signal, and then went to Dongli Eagle to let those rescue soldiers go. Nearly six hours have passed.

The six nearest cities had already arrived. Sure enough, as Dongli Ying guessed, almost every city was in the nest.

The number of troops from the six cities is more than 30,000, not counting the other six cities that came one after another. Their tactics were only because they felt that only the first city would hold back the children's army, and they would come over to surround the children's army.

Even though the generals of the first city only saw 2,000 people attacking the city, they were not worried that the army would not be there.

In his mind, the subordinate army should be hidden behind, and perhaps most of them may have rushed to the various cities in front, and it is best for the subordinate army to attack the cities.

And those who thought the same way as him were the generals of the cities. They seem to be coming to help, but in fact, they just want to take the opportunity to catch the army off guard.

Let those children who want to sneak attack the cities let them stop them on the way. Then wait for the rest of the army to wipe out the scattered forces of the army on the road.

The general of the Fourth City, who was facing the side of the Northern Qiong side, was leading the army towards the direction of the First City at this time. They marched extremely fast.

"General, are we going to rush to the place where the children must pass before they sneak up on us, and snipe at them! But could the army have already made a detour to our rear!? ”

During the march, an adjutant general looked at the main general beside him.

"Do you think the army has this ability, not to mention that our thirteen cities are watching and helping each other, and the cities are interconnected. Let's just say that this time we are dispatched almost at the same time, and no matter which way the children detour, they will run into our team. At that time, how did you say they escaped from our encirclement! ”

There was a smug look on the Lord's face. He looked ahead with disdain, a look of anticipation in his eyes. As long as you march some more distance, you can reach the best place to ambush the children's army.

At that time, he sent people to understand the enemy's situation, and then made strategic deployments.

It is better for the children to divide their forces to take the cities, and they will ambush and destroy the divided army of the children on the road.

It's just that this possibility is not great, but it does not rule out that there is no such possibility, and he has now prepared a two-handed plan, one is that the subordinate army may send troops to attack their various cities.

There is also a possibility that the children will attack the first city with all their might, and they want to take the first city in the shortest time.

The position he is in now allows him to carry out his first-hand plans. If it really doesn't work, the First City side will be able to hold out for a few days.

At that time, it will be twelve cities, and with 70,000 troops, the 30,000 troops of the Zidi army will be surrounded and annihilated, and the chances of victory will be greater. The disparity in strength is more than twice as great.
