Chapter Seventy-Seven: Dissipation

Zhao Tuo struggled all night, but still didn't put his ideas into action.

He was going to observe Su Jiao's personality again.

In case the other party is going to put on small shoes for himself, then asking for instructions without permission is likely to send the handle up.

On the second day, the Qin army launched another attack on Jicheng.

Its offensive was violent, and a large number of Qin soldiers pushed siege equipment such as ladders and building cars, and kept climbing the city to fight.

But the Yan people were also united, fighting desperately with the Qin army at the head of the city, one died, and the other immediately took over.

When the country was destroyed, the Yan people in the city were all soldiers.

The two sides fought each other in close quarters, and the corpses kept falling from the city, and the red blood water flowed down the walls, rendering the four walls of Jicheng into a scarlet.

The corpses were also piled up at the city gate, and the Yan army relied on a breath of blood to keep the Qin people out of Jicheng.

For seven consecutive days, the Qin army paid a lot of casualties, whether it was the main attack on the southern city wall, or the other three city walls of the feint, but did not achieve any results.

"If this continues, even if our army takes Jicheng, it will suffer heavy casualties. Those Yan people want to rely on the city wall to let the blood of my Qin people drain here! ”

In the tent, General Xin Sheng arched his hand and said: "General, the last general, please suspend the siege of the city, and let the soldiers repair one or two." This can also make the Yan people in the city relax their vigilance, and if they are unprepared, our army will attack the city quickly, or they may be able to hit him by surprise. ”

General Wang Jian sat on the couch, he squinted, only nodded slightly at Xin Sheng's words, and did not open his mouth to judge.

Sure enough, the other young general in the tent couldn't bear it anymore and said, "General." The last general thought that General Xin's remarks were inconsiderate and undesirable. ”

"Oh? Where is the general's words out of consideration, Li Xin, you should make your words clear. ”

Xin Sheng's eyelids jumped, and Li Xin, who has always been radical, actually said that he had failed to consider, which was really fresh.

Li Xin bowed his hand slightly and said, "General Xin just said that our army should stop attacking the city and rest the soldiers. But in this way, the Yan people will also get rest, and when they see that our army is no longer attacking the city, they will think that they have the upper hand. The morale of the Yan people in the city will definitely rise, and they will no longer be afraid of our Qin army before. In this way, the next time you want to attack the city, you will face the Yan people with even higher morale. ”

"Moreover, General Xin thinks that we can use this to make the defenders of the city relax their vigilance, so as to achieve the effect of attacking them unprepared."

"This is a fallacy, let me ask if the Yan Kingdom has reached the time when the country is about to die, how can we relax our vigilance and give a chance to sneak attack because we no longer attack the city. On the contrary, after they have rested, they will be more vigilant in defending the city, and will never give our army a chance. ”

Xin Sheng rolled his eyes, but he also had to admit that Li Xin's words had some truth, and he asked, "Then what is General Li's opinion?" ”

Li Xin raised his head and said: "In the opinion of the last general, our army can slow down the offensive, but it must not stop the siege. ”

"But let the east and north battalions attack today. Tomorrow, let the west and south battalions attack the city, and so on, alternate attacks, not only can my soldiers get rest, but also make the Yan army in the city in a state of exhaustion at all times. ”

"The direction of our army's attack is different every day, and the Yan people cannot judge where our army will attack from, so they can only defend the four city walls with all their might. If there is a flaw in the city wall somewhere, our army can go up and break the city with one blow! ”

Li Xin is tall and straight, and he speaks loudly at the moment, and he looks even more radiant and eye-catching.

"What a General Lee."

Wang Jian stroked his palms and smiled, looking at the heroic Li Xin, with a touch of remembrance in his eyes.

Once upon a time, he was so high-spirited.

It's just that the years are urging people to grow old and smooth out all his edges and corners.

"According to General Li's policy, the whole army was ordered to act according to this method of warfare."

"Yui."

The generals were ordered to retire.

Li Xinyi held his head high and walked out proudly.

Although he sometimes likes to rush and kill, he has also read military books since he was a child, and he is definitely not bad at the battle French army.

On the second day, the Qin army acted according to the strategy, attacking only from two directions, changing every day and unpredictable.

In addition, Wang Jian ordered the suspicious soldiers to play the war drums in the direction of not attacking to confuse the defenders.

Even beating drums at night and sending a small group of suspicious soldiers to make a feint, the disturbed Yan army could not rest.

Such a combination of virtual and real, virtual and real, really made the Yan army defending the city frightened every day, tired of running for their lives, and could not distinguish whether the Qin army was the main attack or a feint, whether it was a real attack or a fake attack.

After half a month, the swallows in the city were like frightened birds, exhausted.

"Although the strategy is effective, the defense of this Jicheng is too strong, and the resistance of the Yan people is also quite tenacious, and it will take a while to capture it."

Li Xin stood on a high hill and looked at the siege scene in the distance.

Today, the eastern and western battalions were the main attackers, and the southern and northern battalions also sounded the war drums at the same time.

Although the momentum was great, the Yan people still firmly resisted the Qin soldiers by relying on the advantages of city defense, so that they could not advance an inch.

Li Xin shook his head, he naturally hoped in his heart that his battalion could break through the city and win the first success.

However, the Yan people in the city are facing the danger of losing their country, and they grit their teeth and resist desperately, even if the Qin army uses tactics to fatigue the enemy, it can still only be used as a support, and it cannot achieve the goal of winning with one blow, and can only be slowly consumed.

"If only there was a good way to break the city."

Li Xin sighed.

Among the short soldiers beside him, there was a young hundred generals who heard the sigh of the main general, his mouth opened, and finally closed.

Death to those who overstep the point and ask for it.

This military law is rigidly pressed between Zhao Tuo and Li Xin.

Unless Li Xin took the initiative to ask him, Zhao Tuo would never be able to skip the level to ask for instructions and admonishments, and could only report to him layer by layer.

This is the law of martial arts.

There are no rules, there are no rules.

Once he violates the law, I am afraid that before he can tell the whole story, the military judge will severely punish him in accordance with military law.

"Ask me, ask me!"

Zhao Tuo called in his heart, but Li Xin didn't ask him in the end.

As the sun set over the western mountains, the besieging Qin army retreated again.

The soldiers also guarded the return of the Lord to the Great Tent.

After Zhao Tuo completed his duty, he also returned to his camp.

"Tuo, have you been thinking about it lately?"

Shima waited there, looking at Zhao Tuo with both eyes.

Zhao Tuo smiled bitterly, he has been very entangled recently.

Whether it is according to the original history or the current battle situation, Jicheng will be captured by the Qin army sooner or later. At that time, Zhao Tuo, as a short soldier, may only be able to accumulate some achievements, and will not be able to get the promotion of the title, and miss this war of annihilation in vain.

You must know that in today's world, the six kingdoms of Shandong have been wiped out, the state of Qi finally surrendered, and the state of Wei is mainly attacked by Wang Ben's army, and it is not their turn.

Therefore, Zhao Tuo wanted to take advantage of the battle of reunification to climb, and there were only two major battles of Yan and Fa Chu, and there was not much time left for him.

The Battle of Jicheng is an opportunity to sacrifice the weapon of the counterweight trebuchet to quickly conquer Jicheng, which may bring rewards.

Zhao Tuo observed Su Jiao during this time and found that this person acted quite fairly, and did not deliberately make things difficult for him because of prejudices. So I have the heart to give advice, but I haven't made up my mind to gamble yet.

Roughly understood what Zhao Tuo meant, Shima stretched out his hand to straighten the crown on Zhao Tuo's head, and said, "Since you have the intention of making suggestions, let's give it a try." ”

"When the eldest husband is alive, if he has scruples left and right, how can his heart be smooth. If you are punished, it is a big deal to offset it with a knighthood, why let yourself be depressed all day long and lose your heroism. ”

Zhao Tuo was stunned for a moment, and after he understood, he laughed out loud: "You are right, the husband acts, everything is from the heart." In the past few days, I have been angry with my little family, and my scruples have come and gone, but I have stunned people. In this world, how can there be anyone who does not take risks, even if he is punished, he also has a title to attest to his crimes, I am afraid that he is a bird! ”

As soon as he was told by the company, the depression in Zhao Tuo's heart dissipated suddenly, and he suddenly felt refreshed and open-minded.

He smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I will go to the five hundred lords......"
