Chapter 222 is going to be desperate
The next day, Lu Yuan led the army and left the Dangyang camp.
And at the moment when he led the army to leave, tens of thousands of troops in the camp were also mobilized, and the people from the two countries of Nanhai and Ninghai were driven out and attacked Danyang City in front of them.
According to the previous agreement, before Lu Yuan's side launched a surprise attack, the big camp would create enough movement here to attract the attention of the Zhou people and create opportunities for him.
At this point, that's it.
When Yan Wangqiu asked Lu Yuan, was this battle good or not?
Lu Yuan's reply at that time was that if he wanted to win the decisive battle in Jiangbei, he would have to die more than 100,000 people.
Now this reply has been fulfilled.
If you want to attract the attention of the Zhou people and give them the illusion that the main force is here, you can't create this kind of atmosphere at all if you don't launch round after round of strong attacks.
And on the battlefield, there is a siege war. Each round of Meng's attack is basically equal to countless corpses.
200,000 people in Ninghai and Nanhai, I am afraid that this time I am really going to leave more than 100,000 corpses under this Dangyang City.
But no one cares about that.
The imperial court doesn't care, Lu Yuan doesn't care, and even the lords of the two countries don't care either.
The only people who will care about it may be those low-level people who have to carry weapons in the cold winter, brave arrows and stones, and scream and rush to the city.
But the voices of these people are destined not to be heard.
So everything is a reincarnation.
But one thing is clear, that is, the sacrifices of these people have indeed attracted the attention of the Zhou people, making them focus on the Danyang battlefield here.
Thus for the other side, more or less neglected.
……
The army was on its way to Gui Ninh.
Smoke and dust are billowing all the way, flags cover the sky, and the movement can be described as huge.
The departure of an army of 100,000 people is completely impossible to cover their whereabouts.
And Lu Yuan never thought of covering it up.
Because he knows that he can't hide it, but he can't let the Zhou people pay attention to his side, what should he do?
Answer, let the other side make more noise and attract the attention of the Zhou people.
This is also the meaning of the existence of the Dangyang battlefield.
Now it seems that this strategy has been quite successful.
Lu Yuan's army set out from the Dangyang camp and came all the way to Guining Mansion, passing through Anyuan and Xingshan counties on the way, but did not encounter the Zhou people sending troops to stop them.
So after conquering these two subordinate counties of Guining Province, he successfully arrived under the city of Guining Province.
At this point, Guining Mansion City had obviously been prepared for this surging army.
Not only the general of the right pillar of the Zhou people, the 50,000 troops commanded by Lianyun were here, but the 20,000 people who were forcibly recruited from the local area also gathered in Fucheng to help defend the palace.
The Zhou people had a total of 70,000 troops, including Gui Lian Yun himself, which constituted the defense force of the entire Guining Mansion.
Under the city.
While arranging for the manpower to set up camp, Lu Yuan led Lan Caier and Yang Jing to climb the high platform that had just been erected, and watched the arrangement of the soldiers and horses in Guining Mansion City.
The 70,000 troops of the Zhou people naturally could not all be stationed in the capital city, and there were not so many people living in the city.
And the lonely city cannot be defended.
The best strategy for defending a city is often to be horns with each other, and there is help from outside the city.
Therefore, in addition to leaving troops to guard the city, the Zhou people also built four large camps outside the city, which were placed on the southeast, northwest, and west sides of the city as an outer barrier.
The city serves as a central hub, supporting all parts of the city at all times.
I have to say that such an arrangement is indeed very exquisite, and it can give full play to the strength of the Zhou people.
After all, there was only one Innate Grandmaster in the city, and it was impossible to completely take care of all of them at once.
Set up four camps outside the city, with the city as the core, then the right pillar of the Zhou people, the general of the country, will be able to sit in the city.
Then, where there was a problem in the camp on all sides, where there was an attack by the Innate Grandmaster, he could rush to the aid and resist.
Such a defensive strategy is naturally exquisite.
When facing the enemy with only one Innate Grandmaster, he can perfectly block the opponent. Even if the enemy has two innate grandmasters, fighting hard, it is not impossible to stop them.
But if the enemy has three innate grandmasters, this kind of arrangement will be a bit sloppy.
Not everyone is from Wu'an Hou Bai Mengyang, with the help of the power of the soldiers, he can exert the strength of the innate second realm, and he can forcibly stop three or four innate grandmasters of the same level.
Zhou Guogui Lianyun in the city, as far as Lu Yuan knew, was just an ordinary innate grandmaster, and it had only been more than ten years since he achieved innate achievement.
When it comes to combat power, they are not necessarily much stronger than Lan Caier and Yang Jing.
Compared to the immortal and martial arts double cultivation himself, that is far worse.
Therefore, after seeing Gui Lianyun's defensive arrangement, Lu Yuan looked back at the two next to him, and said with a smile: "Gui Lianyun wants to follow the example of Wu Anhou and guard the lonely city alone.
However, he forgot that he was a mediocre person, how could he be comparable to Wu'an Hou?
This time, he set up four villages outside the city to block our army.
The king told him to see what it means to block the car with a mantis arm, and he can't do it. ”
Speaking of this, Lu Yuan's expression was solemn, and he turned his head to Yang Jing next to him and said, "Marquis Wu Xuan, later you will lead the headquarters to attack the thief Xizhai and lead him out." ”
Hearing that he was sent to take the lead, Yang Jing didn't say much, but nodded solemnly: "The last general will obey the order." ”
Lu Yuan bowed his head, then turned his head to look at Lan Cai'er, and said, "Queen, you will have 20,000 soldiers in a while, and attack the thief Nanzhai." ”
Lan Cai'er nodded slightly: "The concubine obeys orders." ”
Lu Yuan continued to look at his own disciple Zhou Qing next to him and said, "Qing'er, you also command 20,000 soldiers and horses to attack the thief Dongzhai. ”
Zhou Qing came out and said: "The minister receives the order." ”
After doing many of the above instructions, Lu Yuan looked at several of his right-hand men and said with a smile: "Later, this king will personally lead the troops to attack the thief Beizhai." I want to see, Guilian Yunli Sizhai blocked me, this king attacked from all sides, and attacked Mengbang, can he stop it? ”
When the three people next to them heard this, they all laughed.
Yang Jing even said: "This time, I will wait for the three innate grandmasters to shoot together, even if Lianyun is capable, he will not be able to rescue him."
And the rest of the Zhou people, without his help, faced with our innate masters, they were all local chickens and dogs.
Maybe tonight, I'll be able to go into the city and sleep. ”
This Marquis Wu Xuan is very optimistic about whether he can conquer Guining Mansion City.
In fact, there really should be optimism.
Why did Bai Mengyang think that the only person who could complete his strange plan and intersperse hundreds of miles behind the Zhou people and finally approach the city of Xiangyang was Lu Yuan?
This is not only because the soldiers and horses under Lu Yuan's command meet the requirements for the execution of this miracle. is even more because in Lu Yuan's army, there are two innate grandmasters, him and Lan Caier.
If you count Yang Jing, who came to support, there are even three people.
There are three innate grandmasters in the army all the way, and in the face of the enemy, the innate grandmaster is only Gui Lianyun from Guining Mansion City.
With a three-fold gap in top-level combat power and a two-fold gap in troops, this is almost a crushing advantage, and it is not possible to complete the miracle plan.
Then Lu Yuan and the others can also wash as soon as possible, go back to the countryside to farm, and don't mix in this world.
This work of dominating the world is not so easy to mix and does not tolerate waste.
Hearing Yang Jing's words, Lu Yuan couldn't help laughing: "If you want to sleep in the city tonight, then you will have to show your real skills later." Kill two more Zhou thieves and go into the city, so you can do it. ”
When Zhou Qing heard this, he immediately said: "The minister will be effective." ”
Lan Cai'er also followed: "The concubine body is too." ”
Looking at their appearance, they are also the same as Yang Jing, they have no doubts about breaking through Guining Mansion City, they are all very relaxed.
Seeing that the morale was available, Lu Yuan took advantage of the situation and ordered a large army to attack the city.
Then 100,000 soldiers and horses, in addition to leaving 20,000 people to build camps and guard materials, the remaining 80,000 people were divided into four, each led by Lu Yuan and others, towards the four camps outside the Zhou city, and attacked them.
……
On the wide field, the war drums rumbled, the Xuanlong banner of Dayue was unfurled, and a large number of soldiers were pouring towards the camp like a tide.
Yang Jing sat on the chariot, led his 20,000 troops, and in accordance with Lu Yuan's order, he took the lead at this time, preparing to launch the first wave of offensive against the Zhou people.
In the camp in the west of the city, the Zhou people quickly discovered this, and then a warning sound, which quickly woke up the defenders of Innei.
"Enemy attack!"
"The Yue people are coming."
"Prepare for the rolling of stones, prepare for the archers, and when those thieves get close, throw them at me and shoot them hard."
"Let all the people in the camp get up for me, and prepare to go to the top of the village."
"The horse team is ready, and when the enemy is repulsed, give me an attack and cover the thieves."
The Zhou guards guarding the Xicheng camp, after receiving the communication, went to the gate of the village as soon as possible, and then ordered one after another from his mouth.
Those Zhou people were also elite, and not long after receiving the order, a group of warriors arrived at the wall.
And under the wall, one array after another quickly gathered, ready to rush up at any time and replace their comrades.
In just half an hour, the tens of thousands of defenders in the camp had already moved completely.
Even not only here, in the city, the landlord will return to Lianyun, but also got the news of the Yue people attacking the city at the first time.
"Those Yue soldiers and horses appeared in Xicheng, and the banner of the leading generals is a Yang character?"
Gui Lianyun listened to the herald finish talking about the situation over there, and his brows couldn't help frowning: "Is the main direction of Vietnam's attack Xicheng?" There is also the Yangzi banner, surnamed Yang, and the boss, could it be Yang Jing, the Marquis of Wuxuan, who is from the Yue people? ”
This is Lu Yuan's handsome army heading west, for the sake of concealment, he did not display the flag on the surface, but just asked Yang Jing to release his handsome flag.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the commander of the 100,000 army traveling westward this time is undoubtedly Yang Jing.
At this time, when he heard that Yang Jing's handsome flag appeared in Xicheng, he returned to Lianyun's heart, and he instantly lifted it.
An innate grandmaster, if he is left alone, he only relies on the 10,000 defenders on the side of the Xicheng camp, which will not stop the other party.
Thinking of this, Gui Lianyun immediately said to the herald who came to deliver the message: "You go back and tell Wei Yan and let him pay attention to check if Yang Jing did it himself."
If so, let him not carry it hard, let people enter the camp first, and surround him with a large army.
I'll come to the aid with my army later. ”
For the sake of stability, Gui Lianyun still did not rush to the Xicheng camp immediately, but planned to wait and see.
The soldiers are deceitful, who knows if this is a strategy to attack the east and west.
If you rush to Xicheng and ignore the other directions. So that the Yue people find an opportunity to enter the city, it will be too late to regret it.
"Yes."
The herald received the order, saluted, and then hurried away, and returned to the camp to resume his life.
After sending off the heralds, Gui Lianyun also quickly took action, gathered 5,000 soldiers and horses in the city, all of them were armored and swords, ready to attack and rescue at any time.
And just as the city was moving, a bloody massacre was quietly staged on the side of the Xicheng camp.
……
The field outside the Xicheng camp is not very wide.
Yang Jing led the army for a while, and soon approached the area of a hundred steps in front of the camp.
Then it took a moment to clean up the troops, so that the originally somewhat scattered formation was reorganized.
"Siege!"
Seeing that the army was ready, Yang Jing didn't hesitate at all, let the guards around him drive the chariot, and rushed towards the enemy camp.
Behind him, thousands of armored warriors also moved in an instant, and the siege equipment did not resist one by one, at most they took a ladder and rushed over.
Seeing this reckless attitude, the Zhou defenders in Xicheng suddenly changed their expressions, and some of the veterans began to show horror when they looked at the chariot that rushed first.
As the elite of the Zhou people, many veterans fought in the south and the north, but they have seen and heard many scenes of innate grandmasters killing all sides and taking the lives of soldiers like mowing grass
At this time, the Zhou people attacked the camp, but they didn't bring any equipment.
Even rushing to the front is still a chariot that symbolizes greater than the reality, and the chariot seems to be the commander of the Yue people.
A coach takes the lead in the charge, what it means, veterans with a little knowledge, are already clear in their hearts.
It's not.
Seeing that the chariot was getting closer and closer to the door, some clever veterans had already retreated and wanted to flee for their lives.
But before they could find an opportunity and take action under the watchful eye of the officers, Yang Jing had already rushed to the front of the camp.
"Shoot! Shoot him! ”
"Throw me a stone, the one who stoned me to death!"
On the wall of the camp gate, the Zhou officer guarding the gate looked at the approaching chariot and suddenly roared angrily.
The surrounding soldiers immediately moved.
Only a buzzing sound was heard, the bowstring fluttered, and then hundreds of arrows were missed, and they rushed towards the rushing chariots.
However, these arrows missed, and only then did they fly to the left and right of the chariot, but they saw a white lotus flower more than ten zhang large blooming inside the chariot, wrapped in layers of petals, and instantly blocked the fallen arrows.
No matter how many arrows rain outside, but under the protection of the white lotus, there is no chariot.
In the blink of an eye, the chariot had rushed to the entrance of the camp.
When the soldiers of the Zhou people on the wall saw this, they wanted to lift the gold juice of the rolling wood and pour it under the wall.
But before they could throw out the things in their hands, they saw that the white lotus flower that had originally wrapped the chariot bloomed in an instant.
I saw the white lotus flickering, and countless water droplets splashed, hitting all around.
The water droplets seemed to have a thousand pounds, and countless walls and soldiers touched by the water droplets immediately turned into powder as soon as they touched it.
A roar sounded, and under the rolling of smoke and dust, the gate of the Zhou people's Xizhai had disappeared, and a gap of more than ten zhang wide appeared in the original place.
And the more than 100 defenders at the gate were buried under the dust, and the corpses were all over the field, and they were in a mess.
"Kill!"
Breaking through the gate of the camp with one blow, Yang Jing looked at the panicked Zhou people around him, couldn't help laughing, and then drove the chariot and rushed towards a place with more Zhou people in front.
Seeing this god-killing coming, the array of Zhou people was obviously in turmoil.
But under the pressure of military law, even if they knew that they were dead, these soldiers did not break up directly, but continued to hold on with a face of death.
Yang Jing didn't care about this.
It's better if these weeks don't retreat.
When he rushes closer, he can kill more, and it won't take much effort anyway.
Seeing the chariot galloping, Yang Jing plunged headlong into the array, and then the white lotus bloomed, bringing up a burst of blood mist.
In the midst of countless screams, this array of Zhou people finally collapsed.
At the same time, the thousands of armor soldiers who came with Yang Jing actually poured into the camp along the gap he opened.
Fight with those Zhou soldiers who are shaken.
Judging from the current situation, if there are no more reinforcements, it is only a matter of time before the camp here is breached.
"The commander of the Yue siege is an innate grandmaster, go and ask the general to come to help!"
In the camp, Wei Yan hid in the midst of the ten thousand armies, looking at Yang Jing, who was killing in all directions, his eyes suddenly split, and he shouted at the guards around him.
When the guard heard this, he also looked flustered and left in a hurry.
In a few moments, the news reached the city.
Gui Lianyun, who had been waiting for a long time, heard the report and immediately stood up: "Sure enough, it's that Yang Jing." The soldiers listened to the order and went to Xicheng with me to rescue General Wei. ”
In an instant, the five thousand elites who had already been prepared followed Guilianyun towards Xicheng.
The military situation was like fire, but after a short while, they rushed to the gate of the West City.
However, at this time, I saw that in the south of the city, another horse flew in a hurry.
"Report to the general, there was a Vietnamese army in the south of the city, led by a woman, who used poison gas without authorization, and with a wave of her hand, she took the lives of hundreds of people.
General Zheng guessed that this should be Lan Cai'er, the demon girl of the Five Poisons Sect.
This is the innate grandmaster, and it is difficult to resist the big village in the south of the city, so please ask the general to rescue quickly. ”
The cavalryman was lying on the ground, his voice trembling a little, and his expression was in a hurry, obviously frightened by the innate demon girl in his mouth.
"Lan Cai'er?"
When Gui Lianyun heard the news, his eyes suddenly darkened, but he knew in his heart that he had encountered the worst situation.
The Yue people came not from one innate master, but two.
"I'm going to fight hard."
Gui Lianyun had this realization in his heart, then turned his head to look at the cavalryman, and said viciously: "You tell Zheng Chuang, even if you are desperate, you have to stop that Lan Cai'er for me for half an hour."
In half an hour, I will deal with the enemy in the west city and rush to the south of the city to deal with the blue color.
Until then, he's going to hold me up no matter what. ”
Whether it is Yang Jing or Lan Cai'er, they are all new grandmasters who have only broken through in the past few years.
Although it has not been long since Gui Lianyun broke through the innate nature, he has been more than ten years longer than the two of them, and his skills are still deeper.
If you do your best, it is not impossible to repel Yang Jing in half an hour.
It's just that if that's the case, you're going to have to fight hard.
Gui Lianyun felt a trace of helplessness and bitterness in his heart.
