Chapter 385: Battle of Yangcheng

On the other side, the battle of Yingzhou Mansion has also entered a critical moment.

After stabilizing Changzhou, Dongli Ying led an army of nearly 50,000 disciples to Yangcheng. The reinforcement of the 20,000 subordinate troops brought more weapons, equipment and supplies.

They have enough chances to take Yingzhou Mansion in one fell swoop, as long as they capture Yingzhou Mansion, Jiang Chao's children will open up the road to the sea.

At that time, the development of the children's army will be greatly improved.

Whether it is to let Gute return to China or for its own development, Yingzhou Mansion Jiangchao must be taken.

He needs a site with access to the sea to lay the foundation for the future, and Yingzhou Mansion is also the best choice.

On the way to Yangcheng, Dongli Ying arranged a combat readiness deployment.

Of the 50,000 subordinate troops, 20,000 were divided into reinforcements and 20,000 were used to attack Yangcheng. The remaining 10,000 attacked Sioux City in a surprise attack.

He wants to take Yingzhou in the shortest possible time, and the war will drag on for a long time, which is not good for the army. It will also consume more.

Although the children's army is now a big family, it is not the time to lose the family.

As for the cities that were captured later, they had already let the talents sent by the backing villages take over.

For the takeover of the subordinate army, the people of Yingzhou are very welcome, and those who are not welcome are those landlords.

After all, the children's army wants to fight local tyrants and divide the land.

Of course, the army is relatively mild, and you cooperate with the money to give up the land, and it will not touch you at all.

But if you are obsessed. Then I'm sorry. Forcibly beat the local tyrants.

Jiang Chao is also relatively conservative about fighting local tyrants, and he can take land, but he can't kill people at will.

For the rich and unkind. Labor education is possible,

It really aroused the anger of the people, of course, the only way to kill the people was to be angry. Jiang Chao knew that if he was too radical in dealing with those landlords, he was afraid that it would cause turmoil.

Even if he occupies the hearts of the people, he will give those local tyrants some hope and force them to be anxious, and it will be very troublesome at that time. Boiling frogs in warm water is the perfect strategy.

I believe that in a few months, Yingzhou will be completely under the control of the Zidi Army. After all, the people at the bottom are the most powerful force.

Here, when Dongli Eagle came to Yangcheng, he still surrounded three and let one go, and he was not in a hurry to attack the city. But it also put on a posture of attacking the city at any time.

Seeing this scene, the lord of Yangcheng was so frightened that he hurriedly sent someone to Sioux City for help. At the same time, the Changzhou Lord General in Yangcheng looked at the soldiers outside the city, and there was a sense of despair in his eyes.

However, he said to the lord of Yangcheng: "Brother Lu, you must send people to guard the three city gates, and you must not let the army take advantage of the opportunity, they just captured the three city gates, and my Changzhou City was lost." ”

When he fled to Yangcheng, the general of Changzhou had already told the other party about the destruction of Changzhou City. To this end, the Lord of Yang City also made corresponding arrangements.

They arranged heavy troops in front of the city gate, and even arranged nearly 100 troops outside the city gate.

Even if the children have hot air balloons that can make the children fall outside the city gate, if the children want to blow up the city gate with explosives, they must first defeat the hundred soldiers at the city gate.

Otherwise, they would not have had the opportunity to plant explosives at all. Moreover, on the city walls, there were also heavy troops arranged there. As soon as the Balloon of the Legion Army is there, the heavy soldiers in front of their walls will shoot arrows at the people in the Balloon.

Even if the arrows are useless against the hot air balloon, they can still cause damage to the people on the hot air balloon. Don't give them any chance to blow up the walls.

For such an arrangement, the face of the Yang City Lord was full of pride. He shook his head at the Changzhou Lord, and said with disdain on his face:

"Don't worry, as long as the Zijun dares to come, I will definitely let him come back. If they want to break down the gates, it is simply impossible to ...... This time, together with the forces of Sioux City, I will leave all the children here. ”

With the words of the Yang City Lord, the Changzhou Lord's heart was full of disdain and ridicule.

This guy seems to be a, why did he behave so flustered when the army besieged the city just now, and let people ask for help without thinking about it.

said that he asked his family to come over to help eliminate the children's army, but it is estimated that this guy is afraid of the city and wants to let his family help.

But the general of Changzhou would not say it, but looked at the soldiers guarding the city gate below, and there was a worry in his eyes.

With these people, can they really withstand the attack of the children's army! Such an arrangement seems foolproof, but the general of Changzhou always feels that he has no bottom in his heart.

At the same time, the lord of Sioux City heard the letter from the lord of Yang asking for help. There was a hesitation in his eyes. It's not that he doesn't want to support.

It's really that the combat power of the Zidi Army is too terrifying, and he doesn't know if it's useful for him to support.

However, if he doesn't support it, Yang Cheng is afraid that he won't be able to hold out for long. After all, Changzhou City was broken after not holding out for a few days. At that time, it seemed that it took less than half a day for the army to break through the city.

Once Yangcheng is broken, the only thing left is Sioux City. Thinking of this, the lord of Su City did not hesitate any longer, he dispatched nearly seventy percent of Su City's troops and rushed to Yangcheng with all his might.

Before leaving, he was even thinking in his heart that this time, he might be able to take this opportunity to wipe out the Yangcheng generals' army before and after.

Therefore, he personally led the army and set off!

On the other side, Yangcheng, Dongli Ying looked at the city in front of him, with a thoughtful look in his eyes, and he also saw the layout on the other side.

Under the city gates everywhere, there are almost 100 troops waiting, and if the people of the special combat team are allowed to forcibly assault, I am afraid that they may not be able to take the city gates.

After all, a hot air balloon can only carry a few people, and if there are too many people, I am afraid that there will be problems.

But the people who were brought over by the hot air balloon alone were not enough to see at all, even if the soldiers of the special combat team could block ten with one, but there were not more than a dozen people on the other side. It's a hundred.

It seems that if they want to take the city, they will have to find another way. However, Dongli Eagle is not in a hurry.

Because, now is not the time to take the city, he wants to give hope to those Yingzhou troops in the city. Otherwise, how can he send reinforcements!?

On the other side, Nan Mingzheng waited at the place where the rescue of Sioux City must pass, and he divided his 20,000 troops into four parts. In addition to the two armies on the left and right, there was also a part that went directly to the rear.

This army was ready to volley the troops that had come to support Sioux City.

As for the 10,000 people, he went to Sioux City under the leadership of Dong Liren, but he did not rush over, although he was marching in a hurry all the way, but he was also calculating the time.

He didn't want to force the army of Su Cheng to come back to help, so he ruined the reinforcement battle on the side of the Southern Ming Expedition.
