Xiangyang City is located on the south bank of the upper reaches of the Han River, the city was built in the Western Han Dynasty, surrounded by water on three sides, one side is against the mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info Xiongxiong is based on the upper reaches of the Han River and has a long history. It has always been valued by soldiers of all generations, and it is a place where soldiers must fight.

At this time, Song Yu's army besieged the city, and saw that the city wall was towering, and it seemed to go straight into the clouds, and on the city wall, it was covered with dense battlements, about thousands.

And the six gates are closed, the moat flows quietly, and the widest part has more than 70 zhang, this distance is the general catapult, and it is difficult to throw the boulder on the head of Xiangyang City.

The city is high and the river is wide, the defense system is perfect, and the city of Xiangyang at this time is the Xiongguan of the world!! and it has the saying of "hitting Xiangyang with iron" and "the first city of Daqian".

Rao is a general under Song Yu has experienced a hundred battles, and now when he sees the big city of Xiangyang, he gasps: "Such a majestic city, how many soldiers' blood can fill the !!"

In ancient times when the cannon was not invented, Jiancheng was an invincible fortress, and in the history of Fang Ming's previous life, Xiangyang once held back the Mongol army for six or seven years, causing the Mongols who swept through Europe and Asia to suffer heavy losses.

And now, the same problem is also in front of Song Yu.

"We will sweep away the surrounding prefectures and counties, and we don't see Xiangyang sending troops to support, it seems that this time Shi Longjie and Longcheng are determined to defend it!!"

Facing the world's first male city, Song Yu looked indifferent and said to the person beside him.

"Shi Longjie is extremely strict with his troops, and his military law is harsh, he is newly defeated at this time, if he divides his troops again, the soldiers will flee, and now he is trapped in a lonely city, but he can be condensed!"

The middle-aged Confucian beside him replied respectfully.

This person is Ning Ruochen, who was funded by Fang Ming before and came to defect to Song Yu, and experienced several deaths and deaths on the way.

It's also his fate. Song Yu happened to send troops to Jingzhou, and he ran into it here, otherwise, let him go all the way to Wuzhou, and if he couldn't say it, he would die in a foreign country.

Ning Ruochen knew the law well. is even more temperamental, Song Yu is not stingy to promote, although he is still a loose official from the ninth grade, he can often accompany the national prince, and he is extremely noble.

"Ruochen's words are very good! Xiangyang City is high and the river is wide, if it is attacked. Without time-consuming and trouble-consuming, our army will suffer heavy losses!"

The previous Song Yu army was hit hard, and now although it is regrouped, it is compared to before. It's still worse, and if the casualties are too large, I'm afraid there will also be mutiny.

"If Shi Longjie knew about our plan, I'm afraid he would vomit blood!" Song Yu said with a smile, at this time, the surrounding prefectures and counties of Xiangyang were emptied, and the army besieged Xiangyang, and the victory or defeat was already decided.

"The lord is clever, and his intrigue is in vain. Ren Shi Longjie wants to break his head, and he is not the opponent of the lord!" Shen Wenbin said.

On the other side, Ning Ruochen was a little confused. But he also knew that what the lord and Shen Wenbin said was a big plan for Xiangyang, not something he could hear now, so he immediately bowed and retired.

At the head of Xiangyang City, Shi Longjie and Longcheng stood side by side, looking at Song Yu's army, their faces were a little ugly.

"I thought. The previous night attack also inflicted heavy losses on the Wu army. It won't take until at least next year to recover, and I don't want to think about it now. You can send out an army of 100,000, this is really terrifying and terrifying!" Long Cheng muttered, looking at Shi Longjie again.

"You say, if the Wu army still uses the previous golden armor soldiers, how long can I resist?" As he spoke, although he tried his best to cover it up, Long Cheng's voice was still trembling slightly, and it seemed that the previous golden armor soldiers left a deep impression on him.

"Don't worry! That thing is indispensable, and it will never be used again!" Shi Longjie assured.

He had done this kind of thing before, although the scale was smaller than Song Yu, but he directly charged the battle with the ghost army, not as good as Song Yu, and there were still soldiers, separated by a layer of flesh.

In this way, he was seriously injured and almost had to suffer a round of heavenly punishment!!

With oneself and others, the city god on Song Yu's side must be the same.

"That's good! That's good......" Long Cheng's face looked much better.

"Hmph! !! the gallless rats" Shi Longjie scolded in his heart, but his face was not revealed, "We are waiting to collect the young and strong people nearby, reorganize the soldiers, and also have an army of 70,000, relying on the Xiangyang natural insurance, it may not be impossible to win!!

"This general naturally knows that the time is not early, and the general will go down to arrange defenses! Farewell!!" Long Cheng waved his hand, ignoring Shi Longjie's somewhat ugly face, and left with his fists clenched.

In his opinion, Shi Longjie was a thief! How could he compare to him as a legitimate court official? However, Shi Longjie was strong and the number of troops was still above him, and as soon as he entered Xiangyang, he was almost compared to him, how could he bear it?

If it weren't for the fact that the two of them had Taishang Dao in the middle and Song Yu, a common enemy, they finally endured it under the pressure of the army, otherwise, they would have to have an infighting!!

"Damn it!!" Shi Longjie looked at Long Cheng's back, and his eyes flashed with coldness.

......

In the blink of an eye, on the second day, Song Yu's army lined up, with a clear banner, and the order was forbidden, forming several phalanxes to surround the six gates of Xiangyang.

And in front of the army, dozens of siege vehicles were ready to go, murderous.

"Are you going to attack the city?" At this time, Long Cheng and Shi Longjie also didn't care about the infighting, and came to the city together to look.

"Listen, my lord Wu Guogong, have mercy on you, and give you the last chance to surrender, don't mistake yourself!!!

As usual, send out rangers to persuade them to surrender.

"Hmph, what kind of creatures are in misery, all of them are here to scare me and so on!" Long Cheng sneered, "Rebel and thief, you still want to surrender?"

An arrow shot out at the head of Xiangyang City, landing far away, this is the meaning of not falling, the officer who shouted shook his head when he saw this, and also transferred the horse's head back to the camp.

"You go down!" sent away the embarrassed officer, but Song Yu didn't feel it, and sending someone to surrender was just a routine matter, he never imagined that he could take Xiangyang so easily.

"Ordered the catapult to try a round of !! first," Song Yu passed on the military order.

"Prepare !! aim !! launch !!"

The officer in charge of the catapult issued an order, and a wave of boulders, whistling and dignified, crossed the sky and flew towards the city wall of Xiangyang.

When the "bang!!" boulder was still a few feet away from the city wall, it ran out of kinetic energy and fell into the moat, making a bone sound and causing a huge splash.

"Haha! Xiangyang has the first moat in the world, and although Wu Jun's catapult is powerful, it can't reach the head of the city!!" Long Cheng said with a laugh.

"The power of the trebuchet is still too small!" Song Yu looked at the head of Xiangyang City, but he showed a look that was really like this.

Song Yu's investment in the Ministry of Industry is extremely high, and the craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry are also constantly striving for perfection and making high-quality products, but this catapult is limited by the process and is still somewhat insufficient.

"In my previous life, I heard that the Mongolian Huihui cannon could hit the head of Xiangyang City, and the Mongolian army broke the city with this, but unfortunately the deity didn't remember the structure diagram at all!" Song Yu was a little pity.

The previous catapult was already the most advanced weapon of the Wu army, and it was impossible to throw boulders on the city wall, according to common sense, in this way, it was only filled with human lives!! it was dragged down alive!!

Maybe the boulder could be changed to be lighter, but it won't be lethal to the city wall.

"This duke's army is newly built, this time it is to improve the morale of the army with a big victory, if there are heavy casualties, what is the use?"

There are 70,000 defenders in Xiangyang City, although most of them are new pawns, but they are more than enough to defend the city, and with 100,000 troops, they can't be captured at all.

"The matter has come to this point, and the only way to use that plan is to use it! Even if it is said to be brutal by later generations, it is impossible to take care of it!"

Song Yu's face was calm and resolute, he had already made up his mind, took out a token from his arms, and handed it to Shen Wenbin: "Order, transfer the Flame Mansion of this father!!"

"No!" Shen Wenbin took the token tremblingly, his face pale, as if he had seen some terrifying scene.

Shi Longjie, Longcheng and others in the city saw Song Yu's army transferred, and a person from a mansion pushed a huge catapult up.

The soldiers of this mansion were dressed in red uniforms, with the banner of fire as the number, and there were hundreds of catapults all over the province!!

"So many catapults???" Long Cheng's face changed color slightly.

"What are you afraid of? This trebuchet is smaller than before, at most it will throw some gravel, and it won't even break the battlements!" Shi Longjie snorted coldly.

"Fire Bomb Preparation !!"

The generals of the Agni Mansion got Song Yu's will and issued an order!!

Each team has a special man, and the black oil bombs that are strictly guarded are taken out and placed in the grooves of the trebuchet.

"Aim! Ignition!! !!"

Hundreds of trebuchets were launched in unison, roaring in all directions, and hundreds of oil bombs pierced the sky and landed on the head of Xiangyang City.

The "Bang !!" oil bomb exploded on the ground, setting off a sea of fire, enveloping the soldiers, and the male and male burned!!

"Is this a fire oil bomb!! Song Yu is crazy, where did he get so much oil???" Long Cheng muttered to himself with his eyes distracted.

"What are you doing in a daze? The oil bomb will float when it encounters water, quickly take sand and stones and other things to extinguish it!!" On the other side, Shi Longjie had extraordinary experience in the end, and hurriedly passed down the order.

"Oil is precious, at most a few rounds, what's the use except to burn some soldiers?" Shi Longjie muttered to himself.

"Aim! Ignition!! !!"

Another order was given, and hundreds of oil bombs fell from the sky again, turning the head of Xiangyang City into a sea of fire.

"Oil bombs are much lighter than boulders, and even smaller catapults can throw them into Xiangyang!!"

Ignoring the somewhat discolored faces of the generals around him, Song Yu said with a light smile.

"Aim! Ignition !! !!" In just an instant, the oil truck fired ten rounds and thousands of oil bombs, almost covering the entire head of Xiangyang City, bringing up majestic flames, and the heat wave rolled, almost burning the clouds in the sky!

"So much!! so many oil !!" Shi Longjie's face was hideous, and he still couldn't believe it.

"Pass the order, the army is heavily defended, and the enemy does not run out of the gate!!"

Song Yu issued an order: "Don't stop the Agni Mansion, continue to vote for this duke!!"

With the order, endless oil bombs were sent to the front line, and then thrown into Xiangyang by catapults, burning majestic flames, and the screams of the soldiers were endless, and even the soldiers of Wu could smell the smell of barbecue!! (to be continued)
