Sword guarding Chang'an

Chapter 91 Attack Chicheng in one go!

half a month.

The [-] elite soldiers had already set out.

During this half month, Li Jianbai also ordered people to rush to manufacture a large number of hang gliders and hot air balloons, and also personally prepared several sets of zip line devices.

People in the Ministry of Industry have already practiced hang gliding and hot air balloons, and they don't need Li Jianbai's guidance or supervision, but the pulley device is extremely difficult.

"Zipline" is also called "speed skating", "downhill", "trapeze" and so on.It was first used in mountain self-rescue and military assault operations.

The zipline is mainly composed of reinforced concrete foundation, upper station and lower station door structure bracket, spreader (including pulley and sling, of which the pulley is divided into two-wheel and four-wheel, and with speed limit and without speed limit, etc.), buffer device , protective device, spreader recovery device, bearing cable, traction cable and other components.

Li Jianbai knew in his heart that the pulley is the best.

Unfortunately, the condition of the pulley is too complicated, because the pulley is a small wheel with grooves around it, which can rotate around the axis.

It consists of a disc with grooves that can rotate around the central axis and flexible cables (rope, tape, steel cable, chain, etc.) that span the disc.

With the current conditions of the Ministry of Industry, it is impossible to make a pulley at all, so Li Jianbai chose the zipline.

Better than nothing.

After another half a month of marching, finally, the frontline battlefield is ahead.

What is the battlefield?
Corpses, cut-off troops, blazing fires, rotting corpses, blood and dry black-red, terrified people.

It was Li Jianbai's first time on the battlefield, he felt a little apprehensive, and only then did he feel how beautiful peace is.

this moment.

Li Jianbai couldn't help asking himself, is it really right to go to war against the Huns?
In the original blue sky, there were white clouds, flying birds, freedom and yearning.

But now, the air belongs only to fire and gunpowder smoke, and outside the trenches only belongs to fear and death.

The soldiers held the barrel of the gun tightly, as if holding a life-saving straw.The sound of fighting continued, and many people leaped up with spears and spears in their hands.

Then, there was a fierce fight and screams.

One soldier after another spilled blood on the battlefield.

Li Jianbai turned his head to look back at the way he came, and knew in his heart that he could not go back, if he died in battle, maybe the corpse could go back.

Only by destroying the enemy in front of us and rescuing the [-] soldiers of the Tang State can we return in triumph.

"The iron clothes are broken on the battlefield of hundreds of battles, and the south of the city has been heavily surrounded." Wang Meng couldn't help but sighed.

"General Wang, do you have any news about my Tang soldiers, what is the situation of the besieged Tang soldiers?"

Wang Meng nodded, came to Li Jianbai's side, and told the latest situation again.

"Your Highness Sixth, since the fourth prince was trapped in the hinterland of the Xiongnu Dynasty, the three major military generals joined forces to rescue the fourth prince, but the fourth prince still died tragically in the Hun Dynasty, and the three major generals joined forces angrily and swept across the territory of the Xiongnu Dynasty, planning to pacify the Xiongnu in one fell swoop. The heavy armored cavalry of the Wuhu attacked and cut off the food and grass of the [-] army, causing the [-] army to be trapped in a city pass of the Hun Dynasty."

"Three generals, one was seriously injured, one died in battle, and only one fought his way out of the siege and returned to Tang to report."

Li Jianbai nodded. Although he knew the general situation, he didn't understand it carefully.

"What about the latest situation?"

Wang Meng continued: "Now, one hundred thousand troops are trapped in a city gate called Chicheng. Now the Xiongnu and Huns join forces to surround Chicheng, cut off the water source, and also cut off food and grass. Now The Wuhu and the Xiongnu just want to besiege and not attack, and if they don’t want to abolish every soldier, they will trap me to death, a man of the Tang Dynasty!"

"I see. Then let's go to rescue the [-] troops. Is there an idea of ​​the best route." Li Jianbai took out a map and asked.

"Your Highness Sixth, that Chicheng is a desperate place, and the fourth prince died tragically there, that is, they used the corpse of the fourth prince to lure the three generals into the trap."

Li Jianbai nodded, he already knew it in his heart, it seems that Wang Meng is not just reckless.

"Does the Sixth Highness have a plan? According to the latest Feige letter, the soldiers in Chicheng will not last long. Many soldiers are hungry, and the horses have been slaughtered to satisfy their hunger."

What is the concept of slaughtering war horses to satisfy hunger?
If it is not a last resort, it is impossible to slaughter the war horse, which means that the food is exhausted, the water source is exhausted, and even the bark and grass roots are gone.

10 people, some died in battle, some died of serious injuries, they are not afraid of these at all!
But if you starve to death, everyone will have endless fear in the face of hunger, because hunger takes your life bit by bit.

How terrible it is to starve to death alive.

This is more terrifying and frightening than dying on the battlefield.

"How many Tang soldiers are there in Chicheng?" Li Jianbai asked seriously.

"Back, back to His Highness Sixth." Wang Meng, a commander in chief, couldn't help hesitating at this moment: "There are less than three to fifty thousand..."

Hearing this number, Li Jianbai's entire face turned pale. Only [-] to [-] of the [-] elite soldiers were left, and the other [-] to [-] were not killed in battle. What a terrible and sad thing for Tang Bing!

"Xiongnu, Wuhu, you are so ruthless!!" Li Jianbai gritted his teeth!

Li Jianbai, who had unlimited killing intent, gave the order directly.

"The whole army is hurrying to the front line tonight and resting overnight. When the sun rises tomorrow, it's time for us to attack!"

"Your Highness Sixth, you can't be so hasty." Wang Meng was worried because there had been no news from Chicheng for several days.

Because the carrier pigeons have been shot and killed. After all, the carrier pigeons will be shot and killed by Wuhu's archers when they fly out of Chicheng. Only one or two can escape each time. If things go on like this, the carrier pigeons will be used less and less.

Or even more frighteningly, the homing pigeons might starve to death too! !
"I'm not rash, but Tang Bing in Chicheng can't wait, we can't waste a second!" Li Jianbai said through gritted teeth.

"But Your Highness Sixth, do you have a plan?"

"Attack directly! Wang Meng, you are one of the best military generals in the Tang Dynasty, and you are known as the number one fierce general. Let Wuhu and the Xiongnu experience it today!!"

When Wang Meng heard Li Jianbai's words, his heart was full of blood.

And Li Jianbai also saw Wang Meng's hesitation, snorted, calmed down the anger in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, I have an arrangement, ten hot air balloons are enough to deliver a full meal to Tang Bing in Chicheng. Send a batch of arrow feathers..."

Correct!
Airdrop directly!

Knives, guns, swords, maybe there is no shortage of Tang soldiers inside, but there is absolutely no arrow feathers, because they have been guarding Chicheng for many days, and the arrow feathers have long been used up.

Arrow feathers are sharp weapons!
And before the attack, you need a full meal!
Arrow feathers and full food are not important, what is important is to let them know that Tang Guo has not given up on them!

Let them regain their faith in fighting again!

With internal and external cooperation, Wang Meng, as the coach, personally tyrannized and cleared the way, and ten hot air balloons were air-dropped. In one go, the Chicheng crisis was directly resolved. It is not a problem at all!
