Chapter 478: Encirclement or Rammed Earth Blockade? Chang'anjun is deliberately delaying time!
Although Ying Chengcheng has long been worried that he is facing the dilemma of being in a yellow robe.
But the doormen's thirst for profit and Mrs. Han's determination still exceeded Ying Chengcheng's expectations.
When Mrs. Han stepped into Xianyang City with the feeling of seeing death as home, Ying Chengcheng, who was unaware, jumped off the flying boat and laughed loudly: "General Meng! ”
"Don't come unharmed!"
Meng Wu turned over and dismounted, bowed, and said ashamedly: "I failed to meet the order of the king, and I bothered Chang'an Jun to lead the army to reinforce." ”
"Ben General, ashamed!"
Ying Cheng said with a warm smile: "I, Great Qin, am not good at attacking cities, and General Meng's headquarters only has 40,000 people, so it is not easy to always pose a threat to Handan City, so there is no need to be too harsh on yourself." ”
"This time, I will lead 110,000 soldiers and horses to arrive, and with the strength of your and my two soldiers and horses, I want to come to this Inner Yellow City and break it in a few days!"
The Qin army's siege capabilities were relatively weak.
In order to avoid losses, Daqin was also trying his best to suppress the generals' desire to attack the city and guide the generals to seek field opportunities.
For the same general, if he can be promoted to the rank of 2,000 in the field, he will need to earn 8,000 in the siege war.
This did allow Great Qin to reduce the losses of the siege as much as possible, but it also caused a vicious circle in which the Qin army became more and more bad at attacking the city.
Meng Wu said seriously: "It must be so!" ”
"The general has been ordered by the king, and he should lead our army to be merged under the command of Chang'anjun, and the last general is also the deputy general of Chang'anjun, and he will obey the commander's dispatch!"
Ying Chengcheng solemnly bowed his hand: "In this way, there will be General Laomeng." ”
"General Meng, this is a fake of the prince of Qi, the commander of the Qi army, and the deputy general of our army."
Qi knew the proportions and did not ask for the formation of a coalition army, but directly incorporated the Qi army under the command of the Qin army.
But Ying Chengcheng also had to understand the rules, so he gave Tian Jiao the title of deputy general.
However, Tian Jiao knows very well that what he has is just a name, and all he can do is fight for one or two when Ying Chengcheng uses the Qi army as cannon fodder, and he does not have the power that a deputy general should have, let alone the ability of Meng Wu.
Therefore, Tian Jiao politely gave his hand first: "The second son and son of King Qi Xiang are fake, meet Vice General Meng!" ”
"When you are in the army, you can just call your position."
"Ben generals rarely go on expeditions, and the army is far inferior to the deputy general."
"Please, Vice Admiral Meng, for more guidance when he has time!"
If it weren't for Ying Chengcheng by his side, Tian Jiao would have given a generous gift.
Meng Wu kept a distance from Tian Jiao, and politely returned the salute: "Meet Vice General Tian, Vice General Tian is polite." ”
After a brief salute, Ying Chengcheng ordered: "Hexagram husband, lead the robes to the camp with the deputy general of Meng, and set up camp." ”
"Adjutant General Meng, Admiral Tian, talk while walking."
Throwing the miscellaneous matters to the generals under his command, Ying Cheng turned over and walked side by side with Meng Wu, and asked in a solemn voice: "What is the current situation in Huangcheng?" ”
Meng Wu shook his head: "It's not optimistic. ”
"The Zhao army has been stationed in the Inner Yellow City for a long time with 10,000 defenders to withstand the advance of our army."
"In addition, thousands of troops were stationed in Yanghu City, 26 miles west of Neihuang, and Jianpu City, 60 miles southwest, respectively, and Neihuang were horns and arms to each other, and even made the sailors repeatedly raid our army by means of the surrounding rivers and quickly turn to war."
"If it weren't for the last general's strategy at the end of the year to annihilate the Zhao Army's water division, our army would not have been able to hold on to the present!"
"Our army now has only 31,692 soldiers left to fight, and the enemy still has more than 17,000 troops."
"If it weren't for the arrival of reinforcements from the commander, the last general would have decided to camp and hold on."
only listened to Meng Wu's story, and Ying Chengcheng had a headache for Meng Wu.
Although the number of troops under Meng Wu's command seemed to be larger, 40,000 soldiers and horses could not form an absolute superiority over 20,000 enemy troops in a siege battle, let alone face three cities at the same time.
The defenders of the three cities can maneuver and help each other at any time, and do the strategy of the wolves and tigers.
Whenever Meng Wu tried to fight back, he would only end up crashing into the strong city walls!
It is no wonder that Mengwu has been fighting for a long time.
If you are an ordinary general here, don't say that you will take the opportunity to annihilate the Zhao Army's naval division, I am afraid that you will not be able to hold on to it at all, and you will be defeated and lost now!
But this is not the most troublesome thing, Ying Chengyun frowned and said: "This is only the defense line east of Huanshui. ”
"Even if our army captures the Inner Huang Zhucheng and crosses the Huanshui River to the west, it still needs to face a defensive line composed of the four cities of Fei, Lieren, Pei and Ge Yin!"
"After breaking through this line of defense, we can trap Handan City!"
At this moment, Ying Chengcheng really felt what is called one of the birthplaces of Chinese civilization.
Xihe City, the summer capital, and Yincheng, the commercial capital, are all near this place, which makes this place the center of China for a long time, and also makes the density of the city here terrifying.
It is only a short 200-mile road from Inner Huangcheng to Handan City.
But there are seven strategically important fortified cities that stand in front of this road!
Meng Wu's face was a little soothed: "The battle situation is not so bad. ”
"Although there are still cities such as Feicheng after the Huan River, Zhao State does not have so many soldiers to defend the city."
"According to the candidates, two days after the commander left Qi, King Zhao began to recruit troops, but the income was not abundant."
"As of four days ago, King Zhao only recruited more than 10,000 soldiers and horses, including the defenders around Handan and the guards of Handan City, and King Zhao could not reinforce more than 40,000 troops."
The state of Qin, which had gone through the Great War, was emptied.
But the situation in Zhao was even worse than in Qin.
A fiasco in Changping has made Zhao Guoqingzhuang very few, and the subsequent many fierce battles with Qin have caused Zhao Guoqingzhuang to suffer a lot.
Unless Li Musuo's department is recalled, King Zhao will not be able to take out more troops to resist Ying Cheng!
Ying Chengcheng asked thoughtfully: "What does Vice General Meng think should be done in this battle?" ”
Meng Wu immediately spoke: "Today, the commander has borrowed 100,000 Qi troops, and the last general will join forces with the commander, with a total strength of more than 140,000 troops." ”
"The tide of battle has also changed!"
"The last general thinks that when 100,000 heavy troops storm Neihuangcheng, and then ambush 40,000 soldiers and horses on the road that must be passed."
"Siege the city, but also send reinforcements!"
Since the arrival of the military report that Ying Chengcheng led an army of 110,000 to help, Meng Wu has been thinking about a strategy to break the enemy.
But after thinking about it, Meng Wu found that he didn't need to think about it so much.
That's it!
There are many troops, and they are so arrogant!
But Ying Chengcheng shook his head: "The Qi army is weak and morale is not good. ”
"Although our army has as many as 140,000 troops, it is vast but not precise."
"Deputy General Meng should know the battle situation of the Battle of Echeng, and our Qi army is only slightly better than the Chu Zhao'an army."
"If our army uses the Qi army as the main army to attack Neihuang, it will be difficult to overcome it quickly."
"And the wide but not precise soldiers have obvious shortcomings, and they cannot be called according to the regular army."
"In the event of a surprise attack or night attack by the enemy, our army may bomb the camp at any time!"
Tian Fake's smile froze.
I'm a weak soldier, I'm really sorry for you!
But no matter how weak my soldiers are, they won't be on par with bandits!
Meng Wu said with a smile: "Rest assured, the boss has a little experience in training." ”
"Although the Qi army is weak, it is due to a lack of training and rewards."
"When attacking Neihuang, the last general will also train the Qi army at the same time."
"Fighting while training, training with battle, as long as the food and grass are sufficient and the battle is tiring, after three months, although this army cannot become a strong army, it can at least be worthy of a war."
When it comes to military training, Mengwu is professional.
Give Meng Wu three months, and he is confident that he will train this Qi army into a combatable soldier like the Yan army and the Han army!
Tian Jiao's eyes lit up suddenly, and he couldn't wait to promise: "Vice General Meng and rest assured!" ”
"This will send a message to Linzi and ask my king to increase grain and grass."
"The reward is comparable to that of the skilled fighters of the past, and all the rewards are borne by me!"
"This general will also give the king, and the king will take out the land to reward the meritorious generals, and go all out to help the deputy general!"
No matter how much money and food you pay, or even if you wipe out the 100,000 soldiers and horses, as long as you can learn the skills of Mongolian martial arts training, then the Qi country will make money!
Meng Wu's eyes flashed, and his smile became a little closer: "There is a lot of food and grass consumed during military training!" ”
Meng Wu was excited about the grain and grass that was about to be bagged.
Ying Chengcheng frowned slightly: "Three months, too long!" ”
"It takes a long time to pull out the city and get close to Handan."
"Ben won't be able to wait that long!"
According to Meng Wu's plan, it would take at least four or five months for the Qin army to reach Handan City.
Four or five months is not a long time compared to a war.
But Ying Chengcheng will not forget why he came.
He doesn't want victory, he just wants to force Li Mu to come back!
Mengwu's military strategy is certainly safe, but it is not suitable for this battle!
Meng Wucheng pleaded: "Dare to ask the coach if there is a good plan?" ”
After Ying Chengcheng muttered for a long time, he spoke slowly: "I thought that there was a feasible strategy for besieging the city!" ”
took out the Kunyu map from his arms, unfolded it in front of Meng Wu, and asked in a deep voice: "According to the Kunyu map, except for the Thorn Pu City, the rivers near the Inner Huang and other cities are not big rivers?" ”
Meng Wu replied while thinking: "Yes! ”
"The last general just went to Thorn Pu City last month."
"Although the city of Thorn Pu is adjacent to Huanshui, but with the diversion of the Huan River, the city of Thorn Pu has been five miles away from the Huanshui, and now the city of Thorn Pu is digging ditches and ditches, leading the water of the Huan River as a moat."
"So the city of Thorn Pu is not a big river."
Ying Cheng smiled happily: "Very good! ”
"In this case, the general intends to order General Meng's headquarters to block the gates of the three cities of Neihuang and not allow them to leave the city."
"Then order the Qi army to carry the soil, and cut off all the rivers that flow into these three cities."
"At the same time, ram the city with earth, and trap all the soldiers and horses of the three cities in the inner Huang to death in the city."
Meng Wu couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "This strategy will consume a lot of physical strength of our soldiers, and it will also make our army lose some of its combat strength and be in danger." ”
"But Ben didn't think it would have much effect."
"In the past 20 years, the Inner Huang Zhucheng has been the first barrier on the southeast side of Zhao State, and these three cities have hoarded a lot of grain and grass."
"If we do the strategy of trapping the enemy, I am afraid it will take at least a year to exhaust the grain and grass of these three cities."
"But it's ...... a year" Meng Wu hesitated for a while before he said slowly: "Xianyang is in danger!" ”
As he spoke, Meng Wu looked at Ying Chengcheng's gaze with some hesitation.
Meng Wu had already received an order from Ying Zheng, knowing that once Ying Zheng died, Ying Cheng would be able to inherit the throne.
Now hearing Ying Chengcheng's military strategy, Meng Wu inevitably had a thought in his heart.
Say that it takes a long time for this general to take a little?
But Chang Anjun's military strategy will take much longer!
Chang Anjun is afraid that he is not deliberately delaying time, so as to reasonably sit back and watch the king die!
