Chapter 212 Tonight! (Two chapters in one!)
woohoo...
The sound of the horn is desolate and distant. A large number of Zheng Guojun soldiers lined up under the fortified city. They were all dressed in plain clothes. The white waves are surging, the waves are rolling non-stop, going forward indomitably, never returning to the west.
Under the banner of the Chinese army, the guards were holding halberds and guards, and the marching chief Cao Pian was wearing armor and hanging a knife. He stood proudly on the chariot, looking at the city of Yingyin County, with a solemn face full of dignity. color.
Judging from the banners, it is obvious that the Soviet army occupying Yingyin City is quite large, relying on the county town to defend it, it seems that it will not be conquered in a short time.
"Cao Shuai, when shall we march?" At that time, a burly, middle-aged general with a full beard walked forward with steady and strong steps, and asked with his fists clasped.
"Wait a little longer." Cao Pian took a deep breath and asked, "Wuyang, is there any movement from Ningping Second County?"
The middle-aged general said in a deep voice: "The letter was sent by a fast horse yesterday, and it was rushed for six hundred miles. It is estimated that the message will be received tomorrow."
Cao Pian's complexion was complicated, and his eyes were still worried.
Calculating the time silently in his heart, he looked at the soldiers of Zheng Guo with a white banner in front of him, with a gleam of wisdom in his eyes, and thought: "The mourning soldiers are often unstoppable, and three days is the limit. Once they attack the county for a long time, the waiting No matter how irreparable the collapse is! The timing of the reinforcements from Wuyang and Ningping counties is very important."
The so-called one effort, then decline, three exhaustion... Even if it is a mourning soldier, it cannot be held for three days. Once this spirit is relieved, even if Sun Wu is resurrected, he will surely be unable to recover.
In particular, Zheng Guojun didn't bring much rations.
Cao Pian pondered for a moment, then drew out the sword at his waist, Qingshuang's sword pointed at Yingyin County City, and shouted loudly: "Beat the drums, attack the city!"
With the command of the army, the banners waved, and Zheng Guo's army, which had been suppressed for a long time, roared away like a tiger coming out of the fence.
Looking down from a high altitude, one can see waves of khaki waves crashing fiercely towards the city of Yingyin County.
Charging carts, ladders, Zheng Jun up and down, without giving up life and death, fighting bravely to be the first, braving arrows, stones, and arrows to attack the county.
Whizzing……
Arrows shot down like locusts, Zheng Jun let out a scream, and then the killing sound continued, piercing the sky.
Rolling wood and rocks fell from the top of the city, and attacked Zheng Guo's soldiers who were climbing the wall.
On the top of the city, the old general Chun Yushuo, with his arms stretched out, shot and killed the brave general Zheng Jun who was fighting for the first place, with a face as cold as iron, he shouted loudly to the generals beside him: "Generals, these Zheng Jun's offensive is fierce, as long as we block the first wave of offensive, the latter will become weaker and weaker!"
Not far away, under Peng Jiyi's guard, Su Zhao raised his eyes and looked down at Zheng Jun lying in a pool of blood. His eyes were calm and completely unmoved.
Suddenly, as if thinking of something, he turned his head and asked, "Old General Chunyu, are you ready for what Gu asked you to prepare earlier?"
At this time, Chunyu Shuo had put down his bow and arrow, and after listening to inquiries, a strange expression appeared on his face, and said: "According to the wishes of the princes, some family members of Yingyin County soldiers who served Zheng Jun have been selected."
"Wait to stop the Zheng army's offensive, and use the heart attack strategy at lunchtime." Su Zhao hung the sword at his waist, held the crenellation of the city wall with his hand, and looked at the Zheng Guo army soldiers below, even though there were arrows flying by. , and is also isolated from the outside by the body-protecting qi formed by the whole body.
Su Zhao's strategy is not complicated to say the least, Zheng's original 11 army, in addition to the [-] imperial guards from Xinzheng, there are still some county soldiers from the five northern counties.
As for the 4000 army in front of us, there are [-] people belonging to Yingyin County soldiers, and their families are in Yingyin City.
Su Zhao was thinking about how to break Zheng Jun's plan of mourning soldiers yesterday, and he had a flash of inspiration, thinking why not let the family members of these county soldiers call the names of the soldiers at the top of the city.
As long as the morale of the three or four thousand soldiers in Yingyin County fluctuates, it may cause a chain reaction, and the intention of mourning the [-] troops that has been so hard to gather will disappear!
Of course, taking ten thousand steps back, even if part of the Zheng army's will to resist is disintegrated, the casualties of the Soviet army will be greatly reduced.
After all, compared to the great cause of the Zheng State, which can recruit [-] soldiers at any time, the Su State is small and the people are few, and the compensation for the casualties of the soldiers is a huge burden on the wealth. It can reduce some casualties, and this strategy can be used necessary.
On this side, Zheng Jun was aroused to die. It can be said that regardless of casualties, the offensive became more and more fierce. As time passed, there were ferocious and ferocious generals of Zheng Jun, holding steel knives, climbing up the county wall, He fought with the Soviet army bloodied all over his body.
Caught off guard, Yingyin County felt like it was on the verge of collapse.
At this moment, only an hour has passed since Zheng Jun launched the siege.
Seeing this scene, Su Zhao secretly frowned.
It has to be said that the [-] county soldiers expanded with a forbidden army as the backbone lack actual combat. In terms of toughness, they are still much inferior to the Zheng Guo forbidden army who survived a hundred battles.
"Get out of the way, come and beat the drum!"
At this moment, Su Zhao saw the cowhide drum erected on the top of the city, and his heart moved. He stepped forward to push back the big-armed, shirtless drummer, and took the drumstick.
As the king of a country, the situation is of course not to the point of fighting with swords, but beating drums to boost the morale of the army is undoubtedly the best.
"Dong dong!"
Holding the drumstick, Su Zhao pierced the majestic primordial energy of the peak innate martial artist, and beat the cowhide drum. The sound of the drum was immediately high-spirited and aggressive, and almost instantly rang throughout the city, covering up the sound of Zheng Jun's fighting.
There are quite a few generals who used to serve in the imperial army, but now they are in the army formation, and when they turned their heads and saw that it was Suhou who was beating the drum, they were all shocked for no reason.
The body of Marquis Su's daughter is still willing to risk arrows and stones to beat drums for the army, how much should I cherish this body!
Such thoughts flooded the Soviet general's mind almost instantly.
The morale of the Soviet army was greatly boosted. They either armed with knives or spears, or formed a halberd formation, risking their lives, rushed towards a group of Zheng Guo soldiers who had just gained a foothold, and gradually drove the Zheng army who had climbed to the top of the city.
Afterwards, the two sides fought, starting from the morning and ending at noon, Zheng Jun called for gold to withdraw his troops, like the tide, and slowly retreated from the offensive.
Su Zhao also put down the drumstick lightly, leaned on the wall, and looked down at Zheng Jun below with a silent expression. There was no expression of joy or anger, and no one knew what the king of Su was thinking.
But the young prince, with stern eyes and heroic looks, is motionless at this moment, like a towering monument, while the "Su" banner behind him is buzzing, every movement and stillness is shocking.
And among the mountains and forests several miles away, the disciples of the Xianzong Xuanmen who were watching the battle from a distance were equally shocked when they saw this scene.
"The heroic demeanor of the Suhou generation is really heartbreaking." Xu Qiuming said with emotion.
Qin Bingxiao's bright eyes under Chunshan's black eyebrows also had a gleam of splendor, and said: "There is indeed the wind of a hero."
At this moment, in the Lingtai, there is a thin book of spiritual thoughts, which will add the comments about Su Zhao again.
In the distance, the demon Luo Zhen and his party, Linghu Shao said in a cold voice: "Su Zheng's national war, it seems that the victory and defeat have been decided, this Marquis Su, it is not in vain for me to bet on the three blood orchid grasses of Su country."
Luo Zhendao: "Using the weak to defeat the strong and intercept a ray of life, this Su Jun is not a simple person even if he is not a prince and has entered the immortal way."
"These masters have the power of life and death. When will there be any simple people?" Yu Xishuang chuckled, and a strange color surged in her seductive beautiful eyes.
Just when the disciples of Xuanzong's demon sect were sighing with emotion, the head of Yingyin city——
At this moment, a group of men and women came up in darkness, including old people, women in thorn hairpin cloth skirts, and even young children with pigtails, looking around timidly.
"What is this Marquis Su doing?" Seeing this scene, Lu Shouzhen asked with a frown, and muttered to himself: "The two countries are fighting each other, what do you send a group of women and children to the city?"
Xu Qiuming also looked puzzled.
Lu Shouzhen thought for a moment, and suddenly a light flashed in his heart, and he said in surprise: "This Marquis Su, does it mean that he wants to use Yingyin's people as hostages, and make Zheng Guo's army throw a mouse?"
Jian Jia curled her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "You are so cruel."
"The master of the hero is often cold-blooded and cruel." Qin Bingxiao's eyes moved slightly, and he sighed faintly.
Compared with such a weak and indifferent monarch, she still hopes that this Tianyuan Kyushu, which has suffered from turmoil, can produce a benevolent monarch.
Xu Qiuming said: "It doesn't look like it to me, maybe there are other plans?"
This Qingwei disciple, in contact with Su Zhao, is almost going to become Su Zhao's fanboy, but at this moment, he really doesn't believe that Su Zhao will do violent things.
Luo Zhen and his party on the other side also had various speculations, but they were nothing more than ruthless.
However, at this moment, there was a scream from above the city——
"Two cows!"
"Third brother, I am your father."
"Husband..."
"father……"
Calls from old people, gentle people, or sweet people gathered on the top of the city to create a hustle and bustle, like a family recognition meeting.
A disciple of Xuanzong's demon sect, watching this scene from a distance, Qin Bingxiao couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, feeling that it was ridiculous.
At this time, many Zheng Guo soldiers who were sitting on the ground in the distance, drinking cold water and eating dry food raised their heads and looked at the top of the city, confused. However, it didn't take long. There was a commotion.
Obviously, the county soldiers from Yingyin County heard the voices of their family members on the top of the city, and they were all very anxious.
This scene naturally attracted the attention of Cao Pian, the commander of the army under the banner of the Chinese army.
"This is a strategy to mess with our army's morale!"
"Beat the drum, quickly suppress this cry! Beat the drum quickly! Quick!"
Cao Pian judged the danger of this strategy almost instantly, and quickly ordered the general guarding the army to beat the drum.
"Dong dong..."
The sound of the drums was earth-shattering, covering up the shouts above the city at once.
However, the soldiers of Yingyin County in the southeast corner were finally affected by this, and many of them showed confusion on their faces. Fortunately, there were not many of them, and they had not yet reached the point where the morale of the army was floating.
"This Lord Zheng really has the ability to adapt to the situation."
Su Zhao watched this scene, frowning secretly.
Being ordered to be in the midst of a defeated army, to be ordered in a time of crisis, it really feels like turning the tide and helping the building to collapse.
The Gu carving on the side said: "Su Hou, the name of the general of the Zheng army is Cao Pian, who was originally the marching chief book next to Pang Guan."
Su Zhao nodded and said, "It's a character."
In fact, it also reminded Su Zhao that a big country like Zheng Guo is full of talents, and maybe there will be someone like Tian Dan.
"Your Majesty, Yingyin City is low after all. If Zheng's army is attacking fiercely, and there are reinforcements from the north, our army will definitely not be able to defend it for a long time." Chun Yushuo said.
Su Zhao said: "Guzi knows."
Dan Que said: "Zheng Guo sent many envoys, and even the Daoist Jindan of the Haoyang School rushed to send messages. Zheng Jun's attack on Yingyin could not be blocked."
In ancient military warfare, the two sides confront each other, and there is one of the most typical characteristics - the fog of war.
But with the development of communication technology, the fog is gradually thinning.
For example, the news of Zheng Jun's return after a major defeat has gradually spread to the entire Yuzhou and even the entire Tianyuan after some Xianzong disciples communicated with each other.
In other words, it was almost a certainty that Zheng Guo's army would come to rescue the defeated Pangguan army.
"So, if it doesn't work out, there is a danger of losing [-] troops here?" Su Zhao's eyes flickered coldly.
This is the uncomfortable part of the war between a big country and a small country. A small country cannot make a wrong move. If one is not careful, the chips won in the early stage may be taken away by the big country later.
"If it's not necessary, I really don't want to use the water god talisman to use the water power..."
Su Zhao thought about it.
Looking at the posture of Zheng Guo's army, as long as they last for more than a day and attack his lone army back and forth, it is possible to turn defeat into victory.
"Let's go out of the city to attack Zheng Jun tonight."
Su Zhao's eyes were deep, and he repeatedly weighed the pros and cons in his heart.
After noon, the [-] army attacked the city again. Compared with the morning, the swift and violent attack was not reduced at all, and the shouts of killing were earth-shattering.
Cao Pian also used his weak body to beat drums to boost the morale of the army, although he was slightly inferior to the princes of Su.
The constant stream of Zheng Jun rushed towards the county town as if he was dying.
The Soviet army wavered several times, but fortunately Chunyu Shuo sent his own soldiers to support him at any time. In the evening, the Zheng army still failed to capture Yingyin and retreated slowly again.
At this moment, corpses overlapped at the top of the city, and blood was dripping on the city wall. Perhaps as night fell, groups of vultures descended, pecking at the corpses between the broken knives and guns and the scorched flags.
"How about the battle damage?"
At the county guard's yamen, Su Zhao looked indifferent, and asked the middle-aged civil servants below.
"Return to Your Majesty, during the day, our army suffered [-] casualties, and Zheng Jun left roughly [-] corpses." The middle-aged official said with his hands clasped.
Su Zhao frowned, and said: "If it's a mourning soldier, I'll wait for the city to guard, and then I will exchange one for two."
It should be noted that the ancient city defenders had a huge advantage.
Of course, Su Zhao considered that the Soviet army had just occupied Yingyin for a long time, and many defensive equipment were insufficient. In addition, the quality of the soldiers was slightly inferior to that of the Zheng army, and the Zheng army came with the intention of defeating the city. In short, various reasons intertwined Together, this leads to this astonishing exchange ratio.
"Your Majesty, one day at most, Zheng Guo's reinforcements, who have been traveling day and night, will lead their troops to come, and our army will be trapped in Yingyin..." Chunyu Shuo reminded.
But Chunyu Shuo didn't have any good strategy at the moment, because the [-] troops had already surrounded Yingyin, and even if he wanted to leave, it would not be easy.
Su Zhao nodded, and said, "I'm determined to defeat Zheng Jun tonight!"
"Tonight?"
"Just tonight!"
