"Newspaper. ”

Outside the city, the Zhao army was in the big tent, and the herald quickly ran to Pang Xuan: "General Qiyu, the three city gates in the northeast and south have been blocked, and the west city gate has now been repelled again fifteen attacks, and I hope the general will decide." ”

"What about the casualties in Rao'an City?" Pang Xuan asked rhetorically about the casualties in Rao'an City.

And the general who acted as the watchtower came out and said: "General Hui, according to the observation of the watchtower, the casualties of the Qi defenders at the city gate are less than one-tenth of our army. ”

Pang Xuan's face suddenly became gloomy, it was now the fifth day of the siege battle, but the Weng City of Rao'an City had not yet been taken, and now it was even more damaged by ten to one.

"Can anyone tell me why the combat effectiveness of my Zhao army has become so unbearable?" Pang Xuan stared at the people in the big tent.

But all the generals present were the generals of the first army, and in the face of Pang Xuan's questioning at this time, they all lowered their heads and did not dare to look at Pang Xuan's angry eyes.

And the military Sima who returned to the big tent of the Chinese army, looked at the anger in the field, and then knew that it was Pang Xuan who was angry because of the battle situation: "General Pang, you can't blame the soldiers for this matter, just now my middle and rear army came back from inspection, but I found that many of the generals of our army who attacked the Sifang City Gate in this attack were wounded by arrows. ”

Finally, the military Sima Zhu took a deep breath and continued with great solemnity: "Finally, now I went to the place where the bodies of the dead were collected and looked, but I found that the generals of the West City Gate of the main battlefield had died more, and now there are almost no centurion commanders left of our former army and the guardian army. ”

"Shhh When everyone heard the words of Jun Sima Zhu, they suddenly gasped.

After all, everyone only paid attention to the battle situation and casualties, and they had never paid close attention to the various commanders and generals under their command, and now they were still at a low point in the ruthlessness of the defenders of Rao'an City.

Pang Xuan's face was even more gloomy at this time, and he turned his head to look at everyone and asked, "Can anyone tell me, what is going on, are the generals of our Zhao State so unbearable?"

"General Pang, before we find out what it is, should we withdraw the various siege troops first, so as not to add unnecessary casualties. Jun Sima said unhappily.

"Mingjin retreats!" Pang Xuan roared at the herald.

"Yes. The herald immediately ran quickly to the tent, and the anger of the whole big tent seemed a little strangely quiet, and now he attacked a Rao'an city, but he didn't take it for five days, and everyone was holding their breath in their hearts.

Rao'an City, West City Gate.

Looking at the formation of the Zhao army, Tian Qi quickly ordered: "Gao Yuanli, you now go and check the defensive strength of various places, replace the wounded soldiers to heal, and replenish the defensive loopholes that died in battle." ”

"Yes. Gao gradually left immediately.

"Katsuchi, you take people to replenish the defensive materials in various places and prepare for the next big battle. Tian Qi turned his head and continued to command.

"Yes. Katsuchi turned and left.

As Tian Qi gave orders one by one, the defense of the entire north city gate was quickly replenished, but looking at the retreat of the city gate, he immediately came to the main city tower from Weng City.

The distance between the main city tower and the Weng city tower is about 20 steps, and the main city tower is more than three zhang higher than the Weng city tower, that is, once the Weng city can not resist, everyone can also retreat to the main city gate to continue to defend and counterattack, and will not cause the enemy to break the city gate, and the army outside the city can drive directly into the situation.

Tai Shi Chi had already retreated to the main city tower, although the main city gate was farther away, but the main city gate was not high, but it could throw arrows farther.

Tian Qi came to Tai Shi Chi's side and said with a hint of relief: "Senior Tai Shi Chi, today we can repel more than a dozen attacks of the Zhao State with such small casualties, you should be the first to take the lead!"

"Young marshal, now that the army of Zhao has suddenly withdrawn, I am afraid that the next time they come to attack, we will not be so easy to shoot the opposing generals. Tai Shi Chi said with a wry smile.

Tian Qi showed a confident smile: "So didn't I come to your senior, did you solve the problem?"

"What can the old man do, it's okay for me to shoot and kill, let me do other things, I'm afraid I can only do it with you, the young marshal. Tai Shi Chi prevaricated.

Immediately stopped going around the corner, Tian Qi solemnly looked at Tai Shi Chi and said: "No matter how the army of Zhao State changes outside the city, it is impossible for the heralds to use people to run to give orders, so the heralds must ride horses to give orders." The other is the issue of generals, no matter how they change, the generals who command the soldiers under their command will definitely act with their respective soldiers, so you don't need to go to the so-called generals, you just look at who gives orders, you just shoot whom. ”

Tai Shi Chi instantly understood that it was the existence of generals who paid too much attention to wearing armor and wearing battle robes before.

Therefore, no matter how Zhao Guo changes, only by shooting the enemy army who takes the lead can still have the effect of killing the generals.

Subsequently. Tian Qi explained a lot to Tai Shi Chi, and other marksmen also gave a lot of instructions, although the number of times he Tian Qi led his troops to fight could be counted with his fingers, but he only remembered the word 'human heart'.

......

Outside the city of Rao'an, the army camp of Zhao Guozhong.

Under the order of the commander Pang Xuan, the spies of Zhao State were dispatched to investigate the various situations in Rao'an City, and finally gathered all the situations in the Chinese army's big tent.

Pang Xuan stared at the generals: "Everyone said, now there are an unknown number of marksmen in the city of An, and they are killing the generals of my Zhao State, I don't know if everyone has any solution?"

The soldiers were also confused, and it was okay for them to attack and kill the enemy, but they were at a loss to deal with the marksmen hidden in Rao'an City.

And seeing that all the soldiers were silent, Pang Xuan also knew that it would be absolutely difficult to find the sharpshooter hidden in the middle from the archers on the city tower, and the guards of Rao'an City would also hide the marksman.

Before he could speak, the commander behind everyone stood up and said, "General Qiyu, why don't we also gather the soldiers with superb archery skills to shoot the city guards and generals on the city tower." ”

Among them, looking at the commander who stood up, the Chinese people immediately showed a trace of disappointment.

How could he not have thought of such a method, the marksman on the castle tower was so easy to deal with, and the opponent would shoot far away in a condescending situation.

So they wanted to use archery to shoot at the marksman on the city tower, no matter what the result was, they still suffered a loss, and everyone who thought of the result was disappointed Yaoyaotou refused.

Of course, Pang Xuan also knew this idea, but when he saw that someone stood up and put forward some opinions, indicating that he was also thinking about a strategy against the enemy, he didn't open his mouth to refute it, and then waved his hand to let the other party sit down.

"Actually, I have a plan!" Suddenly, Jun Sima said lightly.

When everyone's attention was attracted, the bamboo shoots continued: "The sharpshooters in Rao'an City shot our generals, nothing more than recognizing the armor on the generals, as long as they shoot people with armor that is different from other ordinary soldiers, so I only need to replace the armor of the centurions and commanders under my command, then I can disturb the sight of the marksmen on the city tower." ”

"Bamboo Sima, I'm afraid this is not appropriate. A commander stood up, analyzed the pros and cons, and said: "Even if the centurions and commanders under our command change their armor, then when they command the soldiers, their positions and identities as generals will be exposed. ”

The bamboo shoots smiled confidently: "If you observe the situation from the watchtower in the rear, and finally pass the order to the sound of war drums." And when the commanders and centurions in the siege heard the order to the sound of war drums, they informed the guards around them of the order, and ordered the soldiers under their command with the guards around them?"

"This..."The people in the big tent of the Chinese army immediately lowered their heads and pondered, quickly considering the pros and cons,

Let Pang Xuan look at the people in the camp, knowing that although he was the commander of the troops this time, the generals of the commanders were people from various factions, and now they slowly stood up after seeing that everyone had no opinions.

After glancing at everyone: "All the generals listened to the order, gathered the marksmen and archers in the army under their command, and made every effort to suppress the marksmen on the tower of Rao'an City, and the rest of the people acted according to the orders of the military horses." ”

"No. ”
