Chapter 472 Steady Attack and Quick Victory
Chapter 472 Steady Attack and Quick Victory
The next day, Shi Tianze began to attack Diaoyu City.
His style of play is different from Wang Dechen.
Wang Dechen fought fiercely and urgently. He had always been trying to find a way to break through the gate of Diaoyu City, in order to break through one place and break through.
Shi Tianze was steady and slow, tending to destroy the defense of Diaoyu City, trying to destroy the morale of the defenders, and burning the food and grass in the city.
His main attack direction is Zhenximen, which has the slowest terrain.
The soldiers of the Mongolian army no longer tried their best to move the ladder up the steep mountain road, but started building and digging the mountain road on the mountainside.
It's not like fighting a war, but like building a city.
But the casualties were not less than before.The artillery stones of the Song army kept falling down, and the Mongolian army suffered no casualties. The wooden planks laid on the rocks were often smashed, and people screamed and fell down the mountain ridge from time to time.
Shi Tianze ordered people to pile up stones to build a fortress to prevent the Song army from firing stones.Send the elite to go up the mountain at night, pour corpse oil, and ignite the vegetation under the city wall.
If the Song army could not put out the fire with sand in time, and the rock wall would be scorching hot, the Mongolian army would bring up buckets of water and pour them down like hardworking ants.
The heated rock finally cracked when it met water.
This is the method of "accumulating firewood and burning rock".
Shi Tianze not only burned the city walls, but also used this method to dig mountain roads.
In more than ten days, the Mongolian army finally dug out a flat land on the mountainside that could accommodate more than a thousand people, and began to pile up soil to build a fortress further ahead.
Like a foolish old man moving a mountain, tens of thousands of people are slowly approaching Diaoyu City step by step.
Shi Tianze seems to want to set up the cannon carriage to a place where it can be thrown to Diaoyu City.Not only can it kill the Song army with cannon stones, but it can also throw fireballs and burn the food and grass in the city...
But the casualties were too heavy, and the advance was slow.
Meng Ge has begun to send people to urge.
On October [-]th, Shi Tianze hurried to the Shizishan Camp.
Just after entering the big tent, the commander of the cowardly Xue army named "Gu La" had already stepped forward and spoke directly.
"The army on the middle road to attack Jinghu Lake has set out for more than two months, and Da Khan can no longer wait at the bottom of the Diaoyu City. Is it really necessary to attack for another ten years by building roads like this?"
The reason why Gu La said this is because the Song army dropped two large fish weighing more than 30 kilograms and more than [-] sheets of bread from the Diaoyu City a while ago.
And leave a letter saying, "If you attack for another ten years, you will not get it."
Many Mongolian generals were angry and anxious because of this, and subconsciously feared that they would stay in Sichuan and Sichuan for a long time.
There was already an impatient atmosphere in the army, and it was obvious that Shi Tianze's style of play could not be tolerated.
Shi Tianze also felt helpless about this, but fortunately he already had a plan in mind.
"Please report carefully. Building a road to attack the west gate is just an offensive on the surface."
He stepped forward in two steps, walked in front of the map and pointed.
"Khan, please look here, the minister has ordered someone to dig a secret passage quietly... Diaoyu City will be taken down, and the war will only be in the middle of the month."

fishing city.
Li Xia has been defending the city with Zhang Jue recently, benefiting a lot.
Zhang Jue's use of troops and Yi Shiying have many things in common, both are clear punishments and rewards, and treat soldiers generously.But Yi Shiying is more rigid in fighting, while Zhang Jue is more flexible.
Zhang Jue was good at using axes, and organized a team of ax troops.Whenever a city gate was in emergency, he would lead an army of axes to kill it, often rushing to the front.
When he commanded the battle, he was calm and composed, which made Li Xia think he was like Zhuge Liang.But once there is a crisis on the battlefield, he will be furious again, charge into the battle, and suddenly become Zhang Fei...
In short, this man has wisdom and courage.And he has great courage, he is really not afraid of death.
The deputy general is like this, and the chief general Wang Jian is probably of the same type.
After the Mongolian army retreated that day, Zhang Jue, who had just split a Mongolian pawn who had attacked the city into two pieces with an ax not long ago, regained his gentle appearance.
He quite liked talking about wars with Li Xia, and seemed to have the idea of handing over Diaoyu City to Li Xia's guards in the future.
"It seems that the war will continue for a long time. I am prepared to defend the city for a long time, which is the advantage of a long battle; but if the Mongolian army advances enough to shoot artillery in the city, it will be a disadvantage of a long battle."
"There are indeed advantages and disadvantages." Li Xia said: "But I don't think it may be a long battle. Brother Meng probably won't accept Shi Tianze's slow attack on the city."
“How come you see?”
"Brother Meng has been besieging the city for more than five months. He is sweating profusely. The longer he drags on, the more he will lose his dignity. It's like a strong man fighting a child but being unable to win for a long time."
Zhang Jue nodded, with a pensive look in his eyes, and said, "But as long as I don't reveal my flaws, Shi Tianze can't win quickly."
Li Xia nodded, and said, "Wang Dechen can't fight Shi Tianze's steady battle, but Shi Tianze can fight Wang Dechen's surprise attack. I let someone take something, until..."
At this point, someone came and interrupted their discussion.
Zhao An hurried over, cupped his fists and said, "General Wang can get up, I want to see General Li."
Zhang Jue has been busy defending the city recently, and has not gone down to the top of the city for several days. Hearing this, he was a little surprised and asked, "General Wang is healed?"
Zhao An said: "I haven't recovered yet. But the general is impatient, and he has to take care of military affairs after the bleeding stops."
"It's like this again." Zhang Jue shook his head and said, "Feiyu, let's go together."
……
When I arrived outside the general's mansion, I saw a general coming out of it.
This man was wearing armor, tall and strong, with a dark complexion... When he got closer, he realized that it was Luo Wangshan's wife, Aji.
"sister in law?"
Zhang Jue was quite surprised. Looking at Aji's outfit, he couldn't help asking, "This is you?"
Aji tied a white cloth on his forehead and was still mourning for Luo Wangshan.But she also wore a helmet over the white cloth, as if she had inherited Luo Wangshan's duty to protect the villagers.
"General Zhang." She clasped her fists to Zhang Jue, then turned to Li Xia to salute again, and said, "Benefactor."
The sound of "Benevolence" was due to the surprise attack by the Mongolian army that night. If Li Xia hadn't led the reinforcements to arrive, the Diaoyu City defenders could only hold the inner city, and could not take back the Majun village.
At that time, there was another small incident. The clansmen who were carrying Aji and his son and daughter who were fleeing for their lives were hit by a arrow and were unable to enter the inner city in time. It was also because of reinforcements that the two children survived.
Li Xia hurriedly said that he didn't dare to take it, and only said that being able to hold the stockade was the result of bloody battles between the army and the people.
After being grateful, Aji turned to Zhang Jue and said, "The big guys in the village recommended me as the owner of the village, and I will guard the Majun village from now on."
"General Wang agrees?"
"Even if I am a woman, I can still kill the enemy." Aji said, "I killed five Tartars that night!"
Although her tone was sonorous, she was still a little uneasy in front of Zhang Jue.
Today she came out wearing her dead husband's armor and asked Wang Jian to let her lead the township soldiers to defend the city.
Wang Jian did not agree.
Not only because she is a woman, but because Wang Jian and Luo Wangshan have been friends for many years. They cannot watch the widow go to the battlefield after the old friend leaves.
At this time, Zhang Jue only saw that Aji did not answer directly, so he understood Wang Jian's answer.
"Sister-in-law, let's go home to mourn for Brother Luo, and leave the war to the men. As for the choice of the village master..."
"It's not that I want to be, it's that the big guys want me to be the owner of this village."
Aji's husband died, and it was a time of emotional excitement.
But a simple mountain woman couldn't explain the reason clearly, so she could only shout: "Yu Shuai and the two Mr. Ran surrounded Ma Junzhai to Diaoyu City before, saying that it would be more peaceful. Now my man is dead. ...When you and General Wang leave, who will take care of the village?!"
It's a long story. Back then, Yu Jie asked Ran Jing and Ran Pu brothers to build a city and persuaded Ma Junzhai.But Yu Jie had passed away, and brothers Ran Jing and Ran Pu resigned and returned to their hometowns.
After this incident, the villagers in Ma Junzhai no longer trusted the imperial court so much, and all these years have been maintained by the friendship between Luo Wangshan and Wang Jian.
In the current situation, Ma Junzhai is not willing to allow the imperial court to interfere in the selection of their village master, and the Tujia people also have the customs of the Tujia people.
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, General Wang and I will discuss this matter properly." Zhang Jue said, "It's best to move the village into the city, and then we send troops to guard the Qisheng Gate..."
Aji was in a hurry, but he didn't know what to do, so he walked away.Before leaving, he said something to Li Xia instead.
"Engong is free, come to the village, I want to thank you again."
……
In the general's mansion, Wang Jian was pacing slowly.
His injuries have not yet healed, and in the cool weather, his forehead is also covered with beads of sweat. I don't know whether it is heat or pain.
"Junyu and Feiyu are here."
"The general just met the sister-in-law of the Luo family?" Zhang Jue asked.
"That's right." Wang Jian mused, "It's not appropriate to have the Qisheng Gate only defended by the soldiers from the countryside. The troops in some cities are not enough to guard the eight gates."
"That can't let the generation of sister-in-law and daughter-in-law lead the village soldiers to fight."
"Well, the casualties in Ma Junzhai are heavy enough." Wang Jian said, "Fortunately, I have ordered people to blow up the mountain road under Qisheng's gate, and there is no offensive in the northwest. I will consider this matter later."
Zhang Jue nodded.
Qisheng Gate is very dangerous, Wang Dechen's previous night attack failed, and the Mongolian army will not attack again in a short period of time.
The two guards talked about this matter, and then they wanted to talk about the battle situation at Zhenximen.
However, Li Xia suddenly interrupted, talking about the unfinished business at the top of the city just now...
"Why don't you let Mrs. Luo guard the Qisheng Gate?"
