Chapter 142 Soldiers Approaching Ningxia City
After Zhang Yun dealt with the tribe of Litu, he bloodied several small tribes that helped Litu.
Of course, for those tribes who showed favor to Da Ming, Zhang Yun gave considerable preferential treatment.
Not only did they give them cattle and sheep, but they also gave them grazing in a place with abundant water and grass.
"General, isn't it a bit of favoritism for you to do this?" Aguduo said coldly.
He thought of Zhang Yun's thunderous methods against his tribe, and then looked at the methods of these tribes, and suddenly felt unbalanced in his heart.
"It's good that I give you a way to live, and if you dare to make noise, believe it or not, I'll kill you." Zhang Yun heard the words of this Mongolian chick, his face turned cold, and he threatened.
Ah Guduo has suffered this grievance, but Zhang Yun is currently holding their lives in her hands, and she can't have a seizure.
I had to turn my face away aggrieved, and tears flashed in my eyes.
When Zhang Yun saw her like this, he suddenly felt funny, and said secretly in his heart: "Isn't all this your father's fault?" How do you make it look like I'm an abuser? ”
After Zhang Yang appeased the tribe that showed favor to Da Ming for a while, he put down his cruel words: "If anyone provokes a war, the tribe of the rabbit will end." “
Everyone denied it again and again, saying that they didn't dare.
Seeing this, Zhang Yang nodded with satisfaction, and then moved his gaze in the direction of Ningxia City.
Ningxia City.
At this time, Li Rusong led a large army to surround Ningxia City, and after making preparations, he wanted to attack the city.
Li Rusong made the final strategic deployment: "Dong Qikui listens to the order, tomorrow you will take 30,000 people to attack the north gate." ”
"Liu Chengsi listened to the order, tomorrow you will lead 50,000 people to attack the south gate.
"Niu Bingzhong obeys the order, tomorrow you will lead 50,000 people to attack the east gate."
"The last general commands," the three of them replied in unison.
"What about me" Ma Gui saw that Li Rusong had not assigned him a task for a long time, and asked hurriedly.
Li Rusong chuckled and said, "General Ma will be a reserve with me tomorrow, ready to support at any time." ”
After hearing this, Ma Gui nodded with satisfaction.
Li Rusong left a west gate for the rebels, which was to give hope to the opposite side, and the soldier Sun Tzu Youyun said: "The siege of the division must be que." ”
Surrounding three ques, the gate of that que is the real dead end.
Li Rusong's Liaodong iron cavalry had long been in ambush not far from the west gate, and they would kill the rebels when they left the city, and if the cavalry encountered the thief army in the field, it would be considered a massacre.
Ye Mengxiong heard Li Rusong's arrangement, and nodded again and again.
After that, after the generals discussed some specific details, they adopted Li Rusong's battle plan.
"Okay, tomorrow morning, let's do it."
"I wish you all the best of luck in your success." Ye Mengxiong said with a smile.
"Thank you, Governor."
Early the next morning, after breakfast, the imperial army rushed towards Ningxia City.
Bibai stood on top of the city, looking at the dense Ming army under the city, and his body couldn't help but tremble.
He was scared, he was really scared.
For the first time, a look of fear appeared on his face, and he lost some confidence in whether he could hold Ningxia City.
Seeing the strange appearance of the soldiers on the side, Bi Bai had to cheer up.
He can't break now, and if he loses all his confidence, the soldier will definitely be discouraged.
As soon as he thought of this, he changed his expression and pretended to be confident.
also squeezed out a smile from time to time and joked with the generals around him.
Suddenly, the atmosphere of the entire rebel army was relieved.
Seeing this, Li Rusong didn't talk nonsense with him, and sent someone forward to shout: "Worship, you surrender or not"
"Bring the arrows."
Bibai took out his arrow and aimed it at the creep, shooting straight away.
"Whoosh" There was a cracking sound in the air, and the arrow had already reached the soldier, who hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and then escaped.
Seeing that Bibai was so stubborn, Li Rusong's face turned cold, and he shouted loudly: "Siege." ”
Before Bibai had time to be happy, he saw the heralds of the Ming army under the city, after getting the general's order, they rode horses and galloped in the neatly arranged military formation, and in less than 10 minutes, the Ming army was divided into four parts.
With the memory of the siege horn, the Ming army rushed towards Ningxia City with a cloud ladder.
"Shoot the arrows!" Worship shouted.
Suddenly, arrows rained down, shooting densely towards the Ming army, and the Ming army suddenly fell.
"Rush." The Ming army did not flinch, brandishing a long knife and climbed up the ladder.
Seeing that there was no way out, the rebels had no choice but to fight.
Therefore, he also took out the strength to fight with the Ming army.
"Ahh A Ming soldier was hit on the head by a rolling stone, fell off the ladder, and let out a scream, and then there was no sound.
The Ming army under the city did not stop at all, stepped on his corpse, and rushed towards the city one after another.
For a time, the entire city of Ningxia was filled with a huge meat grinder.
In the face of huge battle losses, both sides gritted their teeth and refused to give in.
The sun is getting higher and higher, and under the illumination of the sun, the reddened blood water of the moat of Ningxia City is particularly dazzling.
Li Rusong clenched his fists and watched the progress of the siege deadly.
It has been two hours now, but not even the walls have been touched.
On the one hand, it is of course because the Ningxia city is too tall, and on the other hand, it is also related to the rebels' fearlessness of death.
Li Rusong looked up at the sky, only to feel that the sun was going to blind him.
At this time, it was a summer day and the temperature was already high, so Li Rusong had to say helplessly: "Withdraw the troops, I'm afraid I won't be able to break the city today."
"General Li has an order, withdraw the army!"
"General Li has an order, withdraw the army!"
“......”
More than a dozen heralds rode horses through the siege team, conveying Li Rusong's orders.
The besieging soldiers were relieved to hear the withdrawal of their troops and rushed in the direction of the main camp.
Today, they can be regarded as knowing why this group of rebels can make such a big disturbance, they are indeed not simple.
"I look at Ningxia City, it won't be broken for a while and a half." After Liu Chengsi returned to the camp, he said with a dejected face.
Dong Qikui heard Liu Chengsi's words and took over the conversation: "Yes, my soldiers rushed for two hours and killed thousands of people, and they didn't even touch the city. ”
"What a fucking grievance."
"Don't say a word, don't you think you're tired enough today."
The two of them didn't say anything when they heard this, but their faces were full of worries.
The three of them sat in their tents, each with their own thoughts.
"General Li Bing, Governor Ye." When the three of them saw Li Rusong and Ye Mengxiong walking in, they hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Ladies and gentlemen, what are the losses of your siege?" Li Rusong went straight to the point.
The three of them sighed and did not speak.
Li Rusong had already gotten the answer from their expressions.
Then, he said in a deep voice: "You go back and appease your subordinates, and we will attack again tomorrow." ”
The three of them nodded in agreement, and then walked out of the tent.
After Ye Mengxiong saw a few people leaving, he asked in a deep voice: "Does General Li have a good plan to break the city?"
"Yes, yes, but it's a bit hurtful." Li Rusong's tone revealed a trace of helplessness, and he didn't want to move that mind until the last step.
"Oh? Li Zongbing said to hear it? Ye Mengxiong heard that Li Rusong had a good plan to break the enemy, and asked curiously.
Li Rusong smiled bitterly, then walked to the side of the map and pointed to the Yellow River.
"What?" Ye Mengxiong exclaimed.
He looked at Li Rusong with a shocked face and cast a confirmed look at him.
Li Rusong nodded helplessly.
"The moat of Ningxia City is close to the Yellow River, and if the embankment is dug to break the enemy with the water of the Yellow River, great things can be done."
However, now it is Ye Mengxiong's turn to be uncomfortable, if the Yellow River embankment is dug up, I don't know how many people will be displaced.
A civil official like him cares most about his reputation.
Seeing that he was embarrassed, Li Rusong chuckled and said, "Your Excellency the Governor doesn't have to be so pessimistic, this is the plan I will choose in the end." ”
"It doesn't always work."
Ye Mengxiong nodded, and then after a polite exchange with Li Rusong, he returned to his big tent,
Li Rusong's strategy just now left a deep impression on him, and the matter of digging up the embankment of the Yellow River lingered in his mind for a long time.
Because of his reputation, it was inconvenient for him to speak, so he called Liu Chenghe.
After whispering to him, he asked him to go to find Zhang Whale.
Zhang Whale Camp.
At this time, Zhang Whale was leisurely eating fruit, so uncomfortable.
Seeing Liu Chenghe's arrival, he quipped: "Yo, Mr. Liu has a lot of opportunities, why do you have time to come to our house?" ”
"Why don't you show yourself in front of Governor Ye?"
After hearing this, Liu Chengsi smiled awkwardly.
Since Ye Mengxiong came, he has not been as attentive to Zhang Whale as before.
Therefore, it is normal for Zhang Whale to have some resentment.
Liu Chengsi didn't care about Zhang Whale's sneering, and said with a flattering smile: "Whatever Eun Xiang said, I have always been Eun Xiang's person." ”
Then, he gave Zhang Whale a rainbow fart and blew Zhang Whale into the sky.
"Okay, okay, you can tell me what happened to come to our house." Zhang Whale said impatiently.
After Liu Chengsi walked up to Zhang Whale's ear and whispered, Zhang Whale's face was full of smiles.
"Okay, okay, if you really break the city this time, I'll give you a credit.
