Chapter 22 The siege is ready to go
With the passage of time, Taishi Ci's emotional life is getting better and better, and the smell of gunpowder between the Qinwang's rebelling alliance and the Xiliang Legion, which is guarding the city, is also getting stronger and stronger.
The allied army camp in the south of Chang'an City, in the account of the Chinese military camp. Chunyu Qiongzheng, a general under Yuan Shao's command, and Lv Bu discussed the siege of the city. The day after tomorrow is the time to attack the city, and Lv Bu, the commander of the Chengnan Alliance Army, has no movement at all. In this way, Wenhou Lv Bu doesn't care, and Zhonglang will be a little scared. In case Yuan Shao is convicted of delaying the military opportunity in the future, he can't afford the charge of beheading and sitting on the three clans.
Wenhou Lv Bu listened to Chun Yuqiong's report while having fun with the two beautiful women in his arms. At this time, Lv Bu was more than 30 years old, but the traces of the years did not exist on him at all. He still looked young in his 20s: sword eyebrows and stars, his nose was hanging like gallbladder, his rosy lips were very sexy, and his skin color was as shiny as jade. Standard handsome guy.
A beautiful woman fed him wine, and a beautiful woman fed him delicious food. His hands wandered around the beautiful woman like a spirit snake. In the happy place, the two beautiful women laughed coquettishly.
Zhonglang general Chunyu Qiong, cavalry captain Zhang Liao, Zang Ba, Wei Xu, Song Xian and other generals knelt on two sides.
Zhonglang showed his opinions with Chunyu Qiong's scalp. After a long time, Lv Bu responded lazily and said, "General Chunyu Qiong, don't worry. If Yuan Shao, the leader of the alliance, blames it, everything will be supported by me..."
Chunyu Qiong clenched her lips and was silent. At this time, Zhang Liao, the captain who was kneeling opposite him, arched his hand and said, "General Chunyu Qiong, as we all know, our iron cavalry is only suitable for field and position warfare, not for siege warfare. Although your Yizhou army has equipment ladders, cloud carts and rushing vehicles to attack the city, the number of our allied forces is limited. Under such circumstances, the rashly attack the city and the losses are immeasurable... General Chunyu Qiong, don't worry, if Wen Hou sits in the south of the city and flies out a mosquito from the city, we can eliminate it!"
Zhang Liao's words were very polite, which eased Chunyu Qiong's anxious mood a lot. Zang Ba, the riding capital, was a little emotional and shouted impatiently, "Attack the city? General Chunyu Qiong, don't open your eyes and look. The other party has at least 20,000 soldiers guarding the city. In this way, we don't have 100,000 soldiers. How can we attack the city? It's almost enough to die... General Chunyu Qiong, you can eat as much as you have a belly. Don't be greedy. Anyway, the main direction of the coalition's siege is Dongcheng and Beicheng, and we just play a role..."
As if he was thinking about it, Chun Yuqiong's face suddenly darkened. Lv Bu's eyes flashed, and then he stared at Chunyuqiong and said, "General Chunyuqiong, don't worry, as long as the Xiliang generals and soldiers defending the city are divided to support other gates, I will definitely lead 60,000 alliance troops to attack the city! Hey hey..."
Only by Lv Bu's attention, Chunyu Qiong felt that his body was imprisoned. If this is a war, I don't even have the strength to fight back at all. Lv Bu's martial arts skills are really unfathomable... Chunyu Qiong nodded to Lv Bu in panic and agreed with Lv Bu's combat intention.
In fact, Lv Bu, who is good at talking on the surface, is very high-profile and domineering. The entrance of his camp is only 200 meters away from the suspension bridge of the moat. In such a camp, it is impossible for the enemy in the city to break through the siege. There is no other reason. Lv Bu's martial arts skills are unparalleled in the world. He is the first in one-on-one and invincible in the group battle.
As long as it is a positional battle, even if there are thousands of troops and horses, Lv Bu is like entering no man's land. The number one in the world, ten thousand enemies, is not a boast, but Lv Bu has gained a reputation for decades. This is: if you are a high chess player, you are not afraid of more people; if you are a better player, you are afraid that there are fewer people.
Of course, Lv Bu misses the camp and Gao Shun. However, Gao Shunhe has been missing for more than a year, and his whereabouts are still unknown.
Gao Shun has a righteous temperament and is used to being outspoken. He is often hated by his colleagues because his words make Lv Bu unhappy. Only the rider Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have a good relationship and are like brothers. In Lv Bu's camp, only Zhang Liao is Gao Shun's only friend.
Therefore, except for Lv Bu, he will occasionally miss Gao Shun, and Zhang Liao also misses Gao Shun from the bottom of his heart. Gao Shun's temperament, Gao Shun's way of governing the army and his life are all Zhang Liao's models and good teachers and friends.
The southern troops of the Alliance Army are not going to attack the city, and the Ma Teng side in the west of the city is not going to attack the city because there are only 30,000 people. There are 60,000 people in Lv Bu in the south of the city who do not attack the city, and there are less than 30,000 horses in the west of the city. Why should they attack the city? What do you take to attack the city?
As long as you can ensure that the traitor Li Wei and Guo Yan can't escape from his own defense area! This is the core idea of Ma Teng's march. Under the guidance of this idea, Ma Teng placed a horse that lasted for three miles by the moat of the West Gate. The Rejection Horse Array was said to be a fan to block the escape route of the enemy army in the city, and the Rejection Ma array was irregularly sprinkled with iron and thisburs.
In such a formation, as long as the enemy in the city dares to rush out, Ma Teng only needs to arrange four battalions of archers to easily solve the problem. There is no need to send cavalry to disperse the enemy's camp.
The situation in the south and west of the city, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan in the north of the city, and Cao Cao and Yuan Shu in the east of the city know everything. In fact, Cao Cao, Yuan Shao and others did not expect Lv Bu in the south of the city and Ma Teng in the west of the city to exert much power. As long as they can contain the enemy, they will be grateful.
Of course, Cao Cao, Gongsun Zan and Yuan Shao also knew that it was better to attack the city together, but the three of them did not mention this strategy tacitly. As a result, the eight immortals crossed the sea and showed their magical power.
A wise man can see the potential conspiracy by looking at the arrangement of the Confederate Army. The development of such a situation depends on who can save how much strength after the siege? This is really: it's a mule and a horse coming out for a walk. Is it a silver-like spearhead or an iron pestle? It's useless to talk about it. You will know it at a try.
The deployment and siege methods of the coalition camp were seen by Li Wei and Guo Yan, who defended the city, and were happy. They agreed that as long as they survived the winter and stayed up to the spring and summer, the allied army would return without success. After all, food and fodder and strategic materials are the dead end of the Allies. What's more, there are remnants of the Yellow Turban Army everywhere. What if they are rekindled? What's more, Liu Yan from Yizhou and Liu Biao from Jingzhou have not sent out a single soldier. What if they take the opportunity to expand their power?
In a word, the allied forces seem to be powerful and unstoppable on the surface. In fact, they also have fatal hidden dangers, which exist in every link.
Every night, Li Wei patrols the city wall defense surrounded by generals. He stands in the watchtower and looks at the enemy camp north of the moat. Unexpectedly, he still has an aesthetic mentality and interest: the stars in the sky, and on the ground, the lights in the enemy's camp are also falling like stars.
When Li Yu saw a pile of strategic materials such as rolling wood, stone, wax, oil and fire cans placed beside the aisle of the city wall, and looked at the thick and towering wall, he was extremely relaxed and happy: as long as the coalition army failed again, it is estimated that there would be no local forces in 20 years. The ability to attack the Xiliang Legion. This battle is a battle of waiting for work with ease, and a battle that will never be in the future.
Of course, as the commander-in-chief of the army, Li Yu is bound to pass on the confidence of victory to the generals in words. He pointed to the camp of the allied forces and said to the crowd with enthusiasm: "Guys, as long as we can successfully resist the first three attacks of the enemy, the victory will tilt towards us... In the face of our abundance. Prepare, in the face of the unbroken record of the ancient city for hundreds of years, the enemy will eventually return with a loss! ...Even if we exchange one for ten and fight to the end, we will swore to coexist with Chang'an City!"
Before Li Yu's words fell to the ground, he would finally shake his arms and shout: Fight to the end and vow to coexist with Chang'an! The voices of dozens of people were swallowed up by the night wind, but the loud shouts of thousands of people followed, drumming in the night wind, spreading spectacularly far, far...
The next morning, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan, dressed in uniform, walked up to the high platform surrounded by guards. Gaotai is located outside the coalition camp, which was built by 20,000 migrant workers after digging and transporting soil for half a month. The earth-made platform is 30 meters long, and the base is wide and slightly narrow. The front is like a cliff, followed by a gentle slope with a length of tens of meters.
The gentle slope is enough for ten people to walk side by side. Yuan Shao and Cao Gong and Sun Zan walked side by side on the indigenous high platform, with a panoramic view of the wall of Chang'an City six miles away. In their sight, the buildings to the north of Chang'an City can be seen at a glance, and the depths of the city are gradually blurred.
On the wall of Chang'an, there is a flag on each arrow pile. The colorful flags fluttering in the wind have a covering effect. It can hide the guards and confuse the sight of the enemy archers.
Next to each flag stood a fierce Xiliang soldier, and their eyes were always watching the movement of the Confederate camp like eagles. Behind the Xiliang soldiers, every 30 meters, there is a stone throwing machine operated by ten people. Every 20 meters is equipped with pots, water urns and sand. Every 4 meters, it stores the swallow-tailed torch, iron horns, fork poles and hook rods, halberd, connecting jaws, axes, vertebrae, and some stones and thistles.
The generals above the lieutenant level have various triangular flags pinned around their waists to raise the flags in case of insufficient personnel or weapons. The wolf said that they need the support of the death squad, the dog said that they need the support of the brigade, the eagle said that they need to supplement long-range weapons, the black indicates that they need to supplement fighting weapons, and the red flag indicates that they need firefighting equipment. White indicates the need for rolling stones and so on.
The aisle of the city wall is full of rolling wood, gravel and other defensive materials, and the transportation team composed of strong people is a group of five people and ten people standing next to the defense materials. Always ready to fight.
A patrol of 50 Xiliang soldiers walked back and forth on the 3,000-meter wall aisle. There are at least ten such patrols on the wall aisles eight meters wide and about thirty miles long. They are in sharp contrast to the quiet soldiers. They are like moving chariots, and the soldiers standing quietly are like sculptures.
The wall of Chang'an City is towering and strong, which is unbreakable, and the fighting spirit and belief of Xiliang soldiers and victory are even more unshakable.
Looking at Chang'an City from afar, Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan have a strong desire to break through and conquer it, but this requires a process and someone to sacrifice...
