Chapter 301 Li Huan's Strategy

Outside the city, two miles away, there is the large tent of the Chinese army in Jiaozhi.

Li Huangao was sitting on a special golden lacquered animal head couch, using a sword as a crutch to prop up his body, with a gloomy expression.

"6 people attacked the city, losing nearly 3000 people. Not only did they fail to take Licheng, but they also rescued more than 4000 prisoners under their noses."

Li Huan looked around at the generals under his tent, and cursed in a cold voice, "A bunch of trash."

"Puff~"

There were [-] generals in the army tent, all of them were under the humerus of Li Huan's tent. Hearing Li Huan's scolding, they all knelt down on the ground with their heads hidden.

"My lord calm down, I implore my lord to give me another chance."

"Give you another chance?"

Li Huan sneered, and immediately roared: "This king led you and others, wearing leather armor and holding long knives, to face the elite Song army who was fully armed, and the battle loss was only more than 3000 people. You and others led the army to attack Li City. The soldiers wore the infantry armor captured by the elite soldiers of the Song Army, and they fought against the group of savages in the city. Not only did they fail to take Licheng, but they ruined my [-] good men.

A bunch of trash, how dare I ask this king to give you another chance? "

Among the generals kneeling under the tent, there was a bearded general who said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, it's not that we are unwilling to fight hard, but the thieves rebuilt the city wall of Li City. Ordnance such as the crossbow gun for climbing the city is completely useless."

Li Huan casually grabbed a piece of paperweight from the table in front of him, and threw it on the bearded general.

The bearded general, afraid of Li Huan's majesty, let the paperweight hit him on the forehead.

A blood puddle appeared immediately, and the blood instantly covered his face, but he still didn't dare to move.

Li Huan sneered: "Don't make excuses for your stupidity, this king hates others to make excuses for your stupidity."

Li Huan glanced at the generals, and said coldly: "Do you have a good strategy for attacking the city?"

The generals were taken aback for a moment, looked at each other, and shook their heads sadly.

"Pig brain..."

Li Huan cursed, stared at the generals, and said: "You guys can't think of a good strategy to attack the city, but this king has come up with a way for you."

The generals raised their heads and looked at Li Huan in surprise.

Li Huan was very satisfied with the reaction of his subordinates, and he only heard him say: "The thieves in the city rebuilt the city wall and attacked the city head-on, so there will inevitably be many casualties. Have you ever thought about digging a tunnel to get there?"

"typical?"

The generals looked at each other, and their eyes lit up.

Someone applauded and said: "My lord is brilliant, such a clever plan, why didn't my subordinates think of it?"

Someone echoed: "Your Majesty's plan is very clever. If you can cooperate with the feint attack and cover the soldiers digging the tunnel, you will be able to sneak attack them without anyone noticing and capture Li City in one fell swoop."

Someone else echoed, "It is indeed a clever plan. The general thought that we could send troops to dig tunnels from the four gates at the same time. The remaining troops feigned an attack at the south gate to attract the attention of the enemy. When the time comes to dig through the tunnels at the four gates, we will be able to The thieves in the city will be surrounded and wiped out in one fell swoop."

Li Huan stroked his beard and nodded in satisfaction. He came up with a strategy, and his generals made up for all the flaws of the strategy. It was not too stupid at all.

"Since you have understood this king's strategy, then act accordingly."

"My lord..."

The bearded general raised his hand to wipe the blood on his eyelids, and said in a deep voice, "I think you can't feint..."

Halfway through speaking, Li Huan's complexion darkened, and he scolded him.

"You are the stupidest of the eighteen generals under this king's tent. If you don't see that you are still a little brave, this king is nothing more than your official title. Get out of this king!"

"My lord!"

"Oh!"

"roll!"

Another paperweight fell on the bearded general, he swallowed the words in his mouth, hugged the injured place, and silently exited the camp.

In fact, he just wanted to say that feigning an attack may not be able to win people's trust, and that a real attack should be used to confuse the thieves in the city.

Unfortunately, Li Huan didn't want to listen to his opinion.

After confirming the siege plan, Li Huan immediately arranged manpower.

Those left in his camp were all smart people, and everyone competed for a comfortable position. In the end, the drudgery of leading troops to feign an attack fell on the bearded general.

Under the city of Licheng, soldiers sent out by the warring parties to gather up the corpses. After cleaning the battlefield, the Jiaozhi soldiers began to attack the city again.

On the city wall of Licheng, the soldiers of the Song army, who had washed up and had enough food and drink, joined the battlefield.

There is such a new force to join, to cooperate with the 4000 people of Huangquan's Quanzi Battalion, nearly 8000 people, commanding and leading the people to fight.

Yang Yansi was full of confidence.

The Jiaozhi soldiers attacked the city for the second time, and the scale of sending troops was much smaller than the first time, only more than 2 people.

Using more than 2 people to fight against more than 6 people in the battle city seems to be a little underestimating the enemy.

More than 5 people attacked the city just now, but none of them captured it. Now it is replaced by more than 2 people. Is there something tricky?
Yang Yansi frowned, staring carefully at the Jiaozhi soldiers rushing under the city.

When the Jiaozhi soldiers were about 100 meters below the city.

He ordered the crossbowmen to release arrows collectively.

The rain of arrows fell, reaping the lives of the Jiaozhi soldiers rushing to the front row.

"Stand up a shield!"

The bearded general charged in the front row, and when he saw the arrows raining down on the top of the city, he yelled.

The eight-sided shield on one side was quickly put on the head by the Jiaozhi soldiers.

The eight-sided shields equipped by the Imperial Guards of the Song Dynasty are all made of refined iron, and have extremely strong defensive power.

The arrows on the top of the city can't shoot through the defense of the shield at all.

The Jiaozhi soldiers quickly rushed to the city with their shields, blocking the rain of arrows.

A series of ladders were erected, and each Cochin soldier struggled to climb up.

Seeing these Jiaozhi soldiers struggling to kill, three points more ferocious than the previous siege, Yang Yansi's doubts were mostly removed.

"Probably the elite of the Cochin soldiers..."

Yang Yansi muttered, and continued to direct the battle.

With the restraint of the soldiers of the Song Army and the soldiers of the Quanzi Battalion, the slang people on the top of the city did not panic as before, nor did they let the Cochin soldiers climb up the city wall to fight.

Pots of boiling golden juice were poured down, and the Jiaozhi soldiers who climbed halfway up the city wall fell down like dumplings.

Rolling logs, rocks, rockets, iron hedgehogs, etc...

The endless defensive weapons fell, and the Jiaozhi soldiers had no chance to climb to the top of the city.

After all, the number of Jiaozhi soldiers is too small. Facing the more than 6 enemy troops on the top of the city, they are not opponents at all.

Among the countries around Song Dynasty, defensive warfare is definitely what Song Dynasty is best at.

The soldiers of the Song Army on the top of the city were also elites selected from various places.

In addition, they harbored resentment and deep hatred towards the Jiaozhi soldiers in their hearts.

They used almost everything against the Jiaozhi soldiers who attacked the city.

They led other slang like wolves and tigers to fight, and the Jiaozhi soldiers could not attack the city, so they had to withdraw their troops.
