Chapter 1142: Besieged Ulju

"The water has finally receded!"

Sun Lei looked at the Yellow River that was gradually subsiding and sighed, the Yellow River is divided into east and north, the east is not the main river, now the summer flood has passed, the autumn flood is still early, and the river water going south is gradually decreasing.

"Your Majesty, the enemy in Hedong has retreated to the territory of Western Xia, and Wanyanchang in Ulzhou is still defending to the death."

Xiao Jiasui reports.

"Well, let Lin Chong hurry up and break Ulzhou as soon as possible!"

Sun Lei nodded and said, it's time to fight for so long.

"Lu Shumi is now stationed in Weizhou, and he is confronting the Song army."

Xiao Jiasui spoke again.

"Any news from Tokyo?"

Sun Lei nodded, it was not yet the time to cross the river and attack Tokyo.

"The war situation in various places has been reported to Tokyo, and according to the news from the time shift, Tokyo has just stabilized again, and it is estimated that as soon as the flood recedes and the city gates are opened, the people in the city will flee in large numbers."

Xiao Jiasui replied.

"Well, by then, Tokyo will be an empty city!"

Sun Lei said with a smile, although the flood siege did not really inundate Tokyo, but hundreds of miles outside Tokyo were affected, and the displaced people were all accepted by the country, and now there are few people in a hundred miles outside Tokyo, and when the residents in Tokyo run, Tokyo will be self-defeating.

"Those people in Tokyo are smart but they are mistaken by smartness!"

Xiao Jiasui said with a smile, Tong Guan acquiesced to Du Chong digging the Yellow River, Liangshan did not suffer any losses, Tokyo did suffer heavy losses, and now the people in the city are afraid that they do not know the situation outside the city.

……

Ulju City.

"Artillery forward!"

Lin Chong gave an order, and the artillery was pushed forward, and the artillery fire instantly covered Ulzhou City.

"Shoot back!"

Wan Yanchang yelled, they also had equipment, and the stone thrower also began to fight back.

There are quite a few trebuchets in the city, although the range is not as good as that of artillery, but it can make up for it with condescending.

"The walls have been cut by one layer, and the enemy is still resisting!"

Yuan Lang looked at the Ulzhou City in front of him and frowned, this time the enemy's resistance was more resolute than before.

"It's okay, the logistics have brought in some gunpowder, which is enough to raze this Ulju city to the ground!"

Gongsun Sheng said with a smile, Ulzhou is backed by mountains, and the city is built on the mountain, and the degree of danger is not inferior to that of the fortress, if it is attacked, the casualties must be not small.

"When will it be fought, this city is made of mountains and stones!"

Li Kui muttered, Ulzhou City is hard enough, it has been bombarded for several days, and the result is only the head of the city.

"Tie Niu, don't seventy or eighty thousand people have to eat and drink in the city?"

Li Yi said with a smile, since it is a siege, you can't be in a hurry, the city is strong enough, but people have to eat grains, not iron.

"The enemy withdrew to Ulzhou in a hurry, and there will not be a lot of grain and grass in the city, and the more fierce we fight, the greater the enemy's consumption of grain and grass."

Lin Chong said with a smile, the consumption of grain and grass is regular, and the consumption of war is far higher than usual, they are consuming the enemy.

"Why don't I take someone to touch it at night?"

He said.

"This used to be too risky!"

Yuan Lang frowned.

"It's definitely not okay to go head-on, but it's different if you walk from the back mountain, even if you can't touch the city, you can threaten Ulju City!"

He pointed to the reckless mountains in the distance and said.

"Back Mountain? There are a lot of enemies in the city, I'm afraid it won't be of much use! ”

Lin Chong frowned and said, it is indeed a good way to attack from the back mountain, but this kind of rugged mountain road can't walk many people, and if there are fewer people who go, it won't have any effect, and the enemy only needs a counterattack to solve the sneak attack.

"I don't want to attack the city, I just need to carry a few beds and crossbows and burn some of the enemy's food and grass!"

"When I was free at noon just now, I went over there to climb up and observe the city of Ulzhou, and vaguely saw that the north of the city was full of soldiers and ordnance, and the grain and grass were all in the south of the city, which was just close to the mountain!"

He pointed to Ulju City and said.

Because of the bombardment for several days, the entire city of Ulju was shrouded in gunsmoke, looking foggy, at noon today, when the two armies were truce, there happened to be a gust of wind, blowing away the gunsmoke, and the victory happened to see everything.

"That's okay, Brother Jisheng be careful!"

Lin Chong thought for a moment and agreed.

"I can go too! There are many people here, and there is great power! ”

As soon as Li Kui heard that there could be a fight, he immediately became interested and seized the combat mission.

"Tie Niu, the fewer people in this matter, the better! What are you doing with so many people? ”

Gongsun Sheng said with a smile.

"We have strength! It's not hard to carry a bed crossbow! ”

Li Kui raised his arm and showed off his muscles.

Everyone laughed, but immediately they all touched their chins and looked around Li Kui.

"What are you doing? Why are you looking at me? ”

Li Kui was rarely shy, and his hands unconsciously hugged his chest.

"Haha, this iron bull still knows how to be shy"

The crowd burst into laughter again.

"Tie Niu, you are right this time, your brute strength can be regarded as useful!"

Lin Chong smiled and patted Li Kui's shoulder.

"Li Kui, you are trapped in the camp and send out a hundred men to attack with the victory! Your job is to carry the bed crossbow! ”

Lin Chong looked at Li Kui and said with a smile.

"Good, good!"

Li Kui didn't know the seriousness of the matter, he only knew that he could fight, so he applauded loudly.

"You stupid!"

Bao Xu, Li Gon, and Xiang Chong were all so angry that they beat Li Kui, and they cheered people as coolies and diligently, which was really a shame for being trapped in the camp.

Soon, Ji Sheng picked up two hundred sturdy soldiers, and Li Kui's side quickly picked out a hundred sturdy soldiers, and with the equipment, Ji Sheng led people to set off, and he would rush to the rear of Ulzhou City as soon as possible.

"Is that okay?"

Li Kai looked at Li Kui in the distance and waved goodbye with a smirk, shook his head for a while, he always felt that Li Kui was a little unreliable to follow.

"Don't worry, there is no trouble in Tieniu!"

Lin Chong said with a smile, although Li Kui was brutal, he was just able to restrain him.

……

Ulju City.

The Jin army hid behind the bunker and kept counterattacking with stone throwers.

"Dutong, the enemy won't attack!"

Wan Yan Zongwang looked at Wan Yan Chang and said, they were defending Ulzhou City just because they wanted the enemy to attack, and then they took advantage of the location of the city to kill the enemy, but the enemy just bombarded and did not attack the city.

"I don't believe they have so many shells!"

Wan Yanchang gritted his teeth and said, he was gambling, betting that the enemy's shells were running out.

"How much gunpowder do we have here?"

Wan Yan Chang looked at Wan Yan Zongwang and asked.

"Our gunpowder has always been spared, and it can last for two days!"

Wanyan Zongwang opened his mouth and said, their gunpowder consumption is also very large, although it is already very economical, but it is still about to bottom out after all.

"I've run out of gunpowder this time."

Wan Yanchang's face was ugly, and the gunpowder he brought this time was a year's reserve for the entire Jin Kingdom.

"Dutong, it's just some gunpowder, anyway, we have a formula, and we can recreate it as much as we want!"

Wanyan Zongwang spoke.

"The battle must be over in two days! The amount of gunpowder used in these two days must not change, and the enemy must not know that we are running low on gunpowder. ”

Wan Yan Chang reminded Wan Yan Zong Wangdao. (End of chapter)
