Chapter 614 Chapter 614: Ping Sibao County (Sixteen) [Operation No. 15]
By taking advantage of digestion, Shen Tang and a group of civil and military soldiers gathered around the bonfire emitting residual heat to roughly determine the spirit of the attacking army formation. Shen Tang suddenly sighed with emotion: "Speaking of which, this is the first time to fight a city siege, and you must be cautious in dealing with it."
As far as she knows, siege warfare is the hardest part of war.
It often takes several times the enemy's strength to take it down. It is not uncommon to encounter a tortoise-like tough bone, and it is not uncommon to be unable to attack for several months.
The first thing the siege side faces is not the enemy in the city, but the solid city wall and the complete defensive military built with the city wall as the core. The moat, the city gate, the outer city, and the inner city must be broken through step by step to advance the front line. But, can it be that easy?
Not easy at all.
If such a huge city can be conquered by the enemy so easily, why would they spend a lot of money to build it?
The defense of the city can withstand four times the strength of the defending city!
The wall is either built of rammed earth or built of boulders. The defense ability is amazing. Light weapons such as bows and arrows are not very effective. fight back.
Once the battle started, the city defenders would block the passages of the city gates with stones to prevent the enemy from breaking through with siege logs and force the opponent to climb the city wall with ladders. In this way, you can occupy a high place and pour down boiling golden juice, stones with fire, rolling logs...
Even if the city wall falls and the enemy rushes into the city, there is still a chance to turn defeat into victory through street fighting. However, this theory is not completely applicable in the world after the arrival of the thief star, because the value of personal force is magnified, and there are many ruthless people who tear down the city walls with their bare hands.
The city of Linshan County is not as tall and majestic as Xiaocheng, and the difficulty of attacking is relatively small, but it is only relatively speaking...
Gu Chi could see that Shen Tang was not calm under his calm appearance.
Talking and laughing freely: "My lord, don't panic."
Shen Tang has no experience, it's fine.
She has a lot of experience in these old fritters.
If it doesn’t work, just follow the process, and be familiar with it.
"Okay, I don't panic."
This side is calm and relaxed.
Qiu Cheng is sitting on pins and needles.
The enemy is right in front of us, but when and how they will attack, our own side has no idea. Who can rest assured that unknown threats are just around the corner? Qiu Cheng even asked Shen Tang's movements three times in a quarter of an hour.
However, Shen Tang didn't move his nest.
finally-
"Report - the enemy's change!"
Qiu Cheng suddenly became more energetic, and his ears stretched out.
"Huh, it's just in time!"
Everyone also thought: 【It's finally here! 】
Yes, Shen Tang's soldiers and horses finally moved. This news seemed to have wings and spread everywhere in the first place. The horn of war preparation sounded, and the defenders of the city wall were ready to go. Even the most sneaky old fritters dared not continue to fish in troubled waters.
While hurriedly putting on the equipment, he shook the lazy robes together: "Wake up, wake up, everyone!"
"what is wrong?"
"What's the matter? Are you deaf and can't hear?"
Before he had time to elaborate, he held his weapon and crawled to his post. The people who woke up also heard the order and got up in a hurry.
These are just the humble scenes at the bottom.
The big shots on the city wall who lashed out at Fang Qiu had no time to take care of them.
Qiu Cheng and the others looked at the "black horizon" composed of people in the distance, approaching them like a rising tide. The horseshoes are neat and uniform, and the tremor produced can be felt on the city wall. Qiu Cheng was silent for a long time, and let out a foul breath.
"Such a rush can still get together and not disperse..."
"Sure enough, we underestimated Shen Youli."
Qiu Cheng does not regret robbing Shen Tang.
When the army approached the city, Qiu Cheng winked at the generals around him. The latter comprehended, sank into his dantian, held a spear in his hand and pointed downwards, and said solemnly: "Who is down there? Why did you offend me in Linshan? Why don't you retreat quickly to save your life!"
These words are sonorous and powerful.
His voice was a bit of natural righteousness, awe-inspiring and righteous, people who didn't know really thought they were the victims.
"Hehe, which mad dog is barking?"
Not long after, a mule-riding general came out from the formation below, dressed in red and silver armor, with a straight body and a youthful voice.
This person laughed.
The voice is not loud, but it can easily spread throughout the two armies.
It can be seen that the opponent has a deep foundation.
However, the opponent's words are more profound.
"A group of thieves stole things from your ancestors and did shameless things in Nanyu County. Now you are pretending to be your uncle's pure white lotus before the battle between the two armies? Why don't you go to the assembly line to install enough money at once? The salary is meager, but it’s better than a poor family living in a cesspit! Spraying manure without wiping your mouth, you have to show off everywhere, isn’t it disgusting?”
Shen Tang is not used to people, and his mouth is full of greetings with high content of Huben and feces, and at the end he didn't forget to bring their lord Qiu Cheng along. Threatened in front of the two armies: "Sensible, now push out Qiu Wenyan, who has his neck clean!"
"Leave him a whole body while you're in a good mood!"
As soon as these words came out, Xun Zhen, who was stroking his beard comfortably, pulled off a beard. This made him feel so distressed, he tried to put the beard back on, but after poking it twice, he had to give up. Looking at the back of the lord, he whispered to Jiang Sheng: "Your lord, are you angry?"
Although some of the content is incomprehensible, judging from the intelligible part, I know that the remaining words are not pleasant.
Jiang Sheng said: "About that..."
Salute Shen Tang again: "My lord was not like this in the past."
Xun Zhen deeply agreed: "It is true."
What does the protagonist look like on weekdays?
Be courteous, gentle and refined.
Humble corporal, dismiss Zhi Youming.
In terms of government affairs, he is even more diligent and conscientious, only occasionally revealing the playfulness and liveliness unique to this age.
Anyway—
The two agreed to think of someone tacitly.
【Fortunately, he didn’t come this time...】
Shen Tang pulled out five scribes this time, with a luxurious lineup.
Kang Shi led the mobile team, and by the way, served as teachers for Yu Zilinfeng and a few young people, accumulating a lot of experience. The main forces of the three armies are Jiang Sheng, Xun Zhen, Liao Jia and Gu Chi. Others stayed behind, stationed in counties and towns within the jurisdiction of the county to prevent surprise attacks.
Originally, he was planning to take Qishan out, and Shen Tang was also used to Qishan accompanying the army, but since the relationship between the first three and him was not so harmonious, they would bicker every now and then, and the three of them would even bring their own "shielding Qiyuanliang" when chatting. Enchantment—Shen Tang, as the protagonist, can't force the relationship between several people to be sweet even if his subordinates don't show any real anger...
After thinking about it again and again, let Chu Yao, Qi Shan, and Ning Yan stay behind as housekeepers, leaving one spot for Gu Chi to take the top spot.
In fact, it is convenient to take Gu Chi to go out, and if he catches a big fish later, it is convenient to interrogate with him.
Gu Chi curled his lips when he heard the two whispering.
My lord is so angry?
She was clearly revealing her true nature.
The things just now are just the tip of the iceberg of her cursing vocabulary. If she really opens her mouth to scold people, the output is no less powerful than a storm. How can she be so gentle? Even so, the people on the city wall were overwhelmed by her vulgarity.
_(:з」∠)_
Already booked, the second operation in the morning, hehe.
God bless, the operation went well.
ps: Liao Jia forgot about a bug, patch it
