Chapter 189: Trebuchet

The entire Ye country, like a running machine, was dispatched all over the country.

And Zhao Kuan also took advantage of this time to replace a group of generals who did not listen to his orders, and he had enough reasons to replace these people at this moment.

The first army and the second army of Ye State, the two main armies of Ye State, with a total of 200,000 people, went to the Yeqi border, and the third and fourth army corps went to the southwest of Ye State and the northeast of Ye State respectively, so as to guard against the Later Song Dynasty and the Later Jin Dynasty.

Zhao Kuan has already made his attitude clear by doing so, the situation in the northwest will be reshuffled at this moment, and Ye Guo will not have any allies from this moment on.

As long as you dare to come, Ye Guo will dare to accompany you to the end.

The Northwest Army also drove all its main forces out of the northwest under Chu Yujia's order and went straight to the Qianshu battlefield.

The people of the world are enemies of me, and I will kill all the people of the world to establish his authority, this is the military order issued by Chu Yujia to the Northwest Army.

The Chasing Wind Battalion took the lead in entering the territory of Qianshu, and after joining Chu Yujia and others, Chu Yujia ordered that the Chasing Wind Battalion bypass the Eagle County, which now has a flying snow battalion in it, and directly attack Henan County in the south of Qianshu, and after receiving the order, Yang Renqi took the order and left.

Qianli Battalion was the last Northwest Army to enter Qianshu, and the reason why Qianli Battalion came so late was because this time Meng Feihang entrusted Qianli Battalion to bring a surprise to Chu Yujia.

Meng Feihang knew what Chu Yujia thought, and he also knew that it was time to gamble on all his net worth, and 10,000 of the 20,000 recruits who were still training were sent by Meng Feihang to enter the territory of Qianshu with the Qianli Battalion.

And these are actually not the main ones, the most important thing is that this time the Qianli Camp brought Chu Yujia the results of Meng Feihang and Xuan Qi's efforts in the past six months.

A regiment of 3,000 dead soldiers, known as the horizontal knife battalion, as the name suggests, each soldier is equipped with an extremely sharp horizontal knife, and each soldier in this team is an elite soldier carefully selected from the army.

Although it is an infantry army, it is not inferior in momentum at all, and the light cavalry that makes the Northwest Army famous all over the world.

In addition to this, there were two hundred improved trebuchets, one hundred army crossbows, and one hundred city crossbows.

The arrival of these trebuchets and city-breaking crossbows, to a certain extent, has given the Northwest Army the capital to attack the city.

In the past, when the Northwest Army fought, it was either to encircle the points and send reinforcements, or to sweep away those villages that had no city defense, and the city could only use the method of siege.

Now the city that the former Shu side really controls in the hands of Chu Yujia is only one Wanjiang City, and at that time, it was also because the lord of Wanjiang City was Xiang Gao and underestimated the enemy, which led to the annihilation of the army on the front line, and Chu Yujia took advantage of the situation to attack the city.

This time, with these siege equipment, Chu Yujia did not hesitate, and immediately aimed at the county seat of Pingfu County, Longzhen Mansion.

The geographical location of Longzhen Mansion is not unimportant, as long as Longzhen Mansion is taken, it is convenient to establish a stronghold here, and it is only eight hundred miles away from the former Shu capital city of Qingzhou, and the light cavalry can reach the city of Qingzhou for a day and a night, at this distance, once the Northwest Army establishes a stronghold in Longzhen Mansion, then the former Shu capital city will be shrouded by its own iron cavalry at any time.

Whenever I want to hit him, I will hit him.

Chu Yujia raised his hand and patted it on the map of Longzhen Mansion and said, "Send troops immediately and attack Longzhen Mansion!"

With Chu Yujia's order, 15,000 soldiers of the Qianli Battalion, with 2,500 Mo sword heavy armor cavalry and 3,000 horizontal sword soldiers, marched towards Longzhen Mansion together, and half a day later, they marched ten miles outside Longzhen Mansion.

Now that Qianshu has been frightened by the Northwest Army, no one dares to lead troops out of the city to face the Northwest Army face-to-face like Xiang Gao did before, and most of them are cowering in the city.

After all, although the cavalry of the Northwest Army is sharp, I have never heard that the Northwest Army is also sharp in siege, and the Northwest Army does not fight siege warfare, so it is the best choice in the turtle retreat city.

It's just that this time, the 30,000 former Shu troops guarding Longzhen Mansion would never have thought that the Northwest Army would give up its usual style and choose to attack this time.

After arriving at the city, Chu Yujia gave the order to go down, and the whole army rested for an hour before launching the siege.

How important Longzhen Mansion is is not only known by Chu Yujia, but also by others, the former Shu general Shen Xingye is stationed here, and there are 30,000 former Shu soldiers under his command, and there are 10,000 people in the city who can participate in the offensive and defensive battles.

Shen Xingye is not incompetent, and he still has some ability in leading the army.

At this time, when he saw the Northwest Army approaching the city, he didn't see much panic, because the number of the Northwest Army was too small.

After all, it is necessary to attack a city only if there are three times the number of people, which means that the number of people on the besieging side can only be carried out if the number of people on the defending side is three times the number of the defending side, and it is not possible to attack or not.

Now just looking at it, the Northwest Army is only 20,000 when it is full, and the defenders on their own side are 30,000, and it is impossible for them to fight if anyone thinks about it.

It's just that he thinks so, but the soldiers below don't think so.

Now the style of the Northwest Army has spread all over Qianshu, slaughtering cities and villages at every turn, which is far beyond their impression of the Ye Army, and they don't know what their final outcome will be once the war starts.

It was also when the former Shu soldiers and civilians in the city were observing the situation outside the city, and the Northwest Army had already begun to prepare to attack the city.

After hearing the report, Shen Xingye also hurriedly ordered the deployment of city defense equipment such as rolling wood and stones to the city wall.

But what Shen Xingye didn't expect was that the Northwest Army did not directly attack the city in a battle formation, but withdrew from the square wooden boxes.

Seeing this, Shen Xingye couldn't help but be stunned, turned his head and asked a deputy general beside him, "What are these things?"

The deputy general watched carefully for a while, but his face was also puzzled, and he arched his hand and said, "The last general doesn't know." ”

I don't know now, but they will know soon.

The offensive of the Northwest Army had already begun, Chu Yujia looked at the head of the city, and then raised his spear and pointed straight ahead, shouting: "Order the slingering troops, smash it hard for me." ”

Following his order, the herald immediately gave the order to attack in the direction of the slinger troops, holding the command flag.

After receiving the order, the centurion of the slinger began to command, and as the soldiers were busy, two hundred trebuchets were ready to go.

"Put!"

"Buzz ......"

With the shouts of the commander, stones several circles larger than the basin flew into the sky together.

That scene, even Chu Yujia felt shocked when he saw it.

This Meng Feihang is really not ordinary.

Now Chu Yujia really had to wonder how he thought of these strange things......

The boulder flew into the sky, and the next one slammed into the city and its ......

Hundreds of large rocks poured down like a shower, and the city was smashed into dust.

Before many of the former Shu soldiers could react, they smashed the stones head-on, smashing blood in all directions.

In an instant, the wails of the wounded and the dying filled the city of Longzhen......
