Prosperous Tang Blood Blade

Chapter 261 Liu Wuzhou's Confidence
Chapter 64 Liu Wuzhou's Confidence

When the man was angry, blood spattered five steps, when the emperor was angry, millions of corpses lay down.

Chen Ying was furious, all the soldiers of Dingyuan Army and Lingwu Army went up to fight desperately.In fact, not only the Lingwu Army and Dingyuan Army, but also the Shuozhou Army composed of young and strong Shuozhou people, they also had to go up and fight hard at this time.

Xu Yiming quietly walked beside Xu Caifu, frowned and said, "General Chen is too much of a joke!"

"Child's play!" Xu Caifu gave Xu Yiming a hard look and said, "If you don't keep secrets, you will lose your ministers, and if your ministers don't keep secrets, you will lose your body. From now on, you have to control your mouth. Misfortune comes from your mouth. Don't you forget?" ?"

Xu Yiming said eagerly: "My child knows!"

Xu Caifu's face was a bit ugly, he also couldn't figure out why Chen Ying launched an attack at this time, there were nearly [-] Shuozhou athletes, and he didn't know how many of them would survive.

Yanmen Pass is a famous fortified and dangerous pass in the world, not only Xu Caifu thinks so, even Liu Wuzhou thinks so.Standing in the gate tower of Yanmenguan City, condescending, it is easy to see that the Tang army is preparing to attack.

Twelve tall counterweight trebuchets, pulled by dozens of strong cattle, slowly approached Yanmenguan City, thousands of crossbowmen were nearby to cover, and thousands of light cavalry were watching on both sides.

To defend a city, you must use offense instead of defense.Passively beaten, this city wall will always be attacked.When it could be seen that the cavalrymen of the Lingwu Army in the armor of the Tang army were almost all Turkic, Liu Wuzhou really gave up the idea of ​​attacking the city. The cavalry under his command were not enough to look at in front of the Turkic people.If you go out of the city to attack the Tang army's trebuchet troops, there is no chance of success.

"Your Majesty, our army is timid after seeing so many enemies, and the army's morale is faintly unstable." A young general with a face like purple jade bowed to Liu Wuzhou and said: "We must go out of the city and fight for a while to reverse the disadvantage!"

This young player is called Wang Chongwei.He was originally the son of Wang Xingben, the general who guarded Yao Junsu in the east of the Sui Dynasty.Yao Junsu stood firm in Hedong County against Tang Dynasty, but was finally killed by Wang Xingben, and Hedong County fell into the hands of Tang army.Liu Wuzhou went south, and Wang Xingben attached himself to Liu Wuzhou.Wang Chongwei was actually the hostage Wang Xingben sent to Liu Wuzhou.

As a proton, Wang Chongwei didn't have the slightest awareness of being a proton. Instead, he thought this was an opportunity.By Liu Wuzhou's side, there is naturally a chance to be promoted and make a fortune.When Tang Jun did not launch an attack, Wang Chongwei took the lead in proposing to attack first, and it would be best to destroy Tang Jun's trebuchet in one fell swoop.

Liu Wuzhou refused to let him go, and said calmly: "No, there must be traps outside the pass!"

Wang Chongwei is also a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers, so he smiled disapprovingly: "So what if there are traps. We can't stop fighting just because we are afraid of them! Defending the city must be attacked. The soldiers of the Tianxing Army are mostly recruits, and their hearts are not stable. I'm afraid that if I don't give them a little encouragement, they will lose without a fight."

"To defend the city is to attack." Liu Wuzhou looked at Wang Chongwei and said with a smile: "But the attack also depends on the timing. Encouragement is necessary, but now is not the time."

Liu Wuzhou looked at Chen Ying's reckless attack and guessed secretly.At this time, Fan Junzhang should have guessed it right. Chen Ying dispatched a surprise army to attack Shenchi. There should not be many troops. In order to avoid being wiped out by his army, he rushed to attack Yanmen Pass. The purpose was to put pressure on him and force him Unable to divide troops to attack Shenchi.

Liu Wuzhou thought of this, and said with a leisurely smile: "Son Chen Ying, why don't you accept such a big gift with a smile? It's really unreasonable."

In fact, Chen Ying didn't lose his mind, he just wanted to see if he could move the Yanmen Pass with a counterweight trebuchet.Of course, the Hedong battlefield is now in chaos, and the main directions are divided into six places, namely under Loufanguan, Ashina Simo's troops and Yu Guni's north-south attack on Zhang Lun.Zhang Huaiwei and Xu Jingzong from Shenchi County resisted Fan Junzhang's onslaught.At the same time, Yu Chigong and Xunxiang under Wei Zeguan surrounded Li Xiuning's troops, and Ma Sanbao led a gang of mobs to try to break the siege of Yuchigong and Xunxiang and rescue Li Xiuning.

However, Ma Sanbao's attack was powerless, he had no armor, not even a decent weapon, and he didn't have food and grass to consume for a long time, so Yu Chigong and Xun Xiang had the obvious upper hand, and they were able to do a job with ease.In the direction of Huizhou, Song Jingang resisted the Hedong Tang army led by Xu Shiji, but the difference in strength between the two sides was not large. The siege equipment is currently at a stalemate, and of course there is the direction of Haozhou. Liu Wuzhou's army stormed the remnants of the Bingzhou Army led by Taichang Shaoqing and Bingzhou Chief Li Zhongwen, but Li Zhongwen barely protected himself, and the situation was also in jeopardy.

Now the only chance to break the game is in Chen Ying's hands.

As the counterweight trebuchet pulled by Jian Niu slowly approached the city of Yanmen Pass, Liu Wuzhou heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that only a mere twelve appeared below the city.

Twelve stone throwers are naturally no small threat to other cities.But for Yanmen Pass, it is of no importance at all.General cities are mostly built with rammed earth, but Yanmen Pass is built with bluestone strips as bricks and potted with glutinous rice soup.The most important thing is that Yanmen Pass is not a city wall. The defense system of Yanmen Pass is more than [-] miles in depth. There are [-] passes in the [-] miles. For a small city) and eighteen pass walls, if you want to break through Yanmen Pass, you must use human life to fill one pass after another.

According to calculations in this era, it took more than [-] consecutive bombardments with trebuchets to collapse a pass wall. It would take a full year for Chen Ying to completely occupy Yanmen Pass.

Liu Wuzhou was very confident, even if it was a symbolic resistance of every pass wall and every military stronghold for two or three days, it was enough for Fan Junzhang to break through Shenchi County three or four times.

The Tang Army's Shuozhou Army came up. The main force of this army was the young and strong hidden in Shuozhou. It didn't look like an army at this time. They rushed over in a panic, and their momentum was not bad.

Of course, it's just good.

In Liu Wuzhou's eyes, if he hadn't been concerned about the Turkic cavalry in the Tang army outside the city, Liu Wuzhou was very confident that he could use a thousand cavalry to kill the Tang army's [-] troops.

After only observing for less than a quarter of an hour, watching Tang Jun hurriedly set up the heavy shield in front of the Zhuzhai Village in Beiguanchenggou, Yanmen Pass, but began to use sacks filled with soil to build a simple parapet in front of the shield. Liu Wuzhou has already Not interested in watching anymore.

According to this method of attacking Yanmen Pass, Chen Ying would not be able to break through Changsheng Fort (the second of the six forts) within three to five months.Liu Wuzhou looked at the school lieutenant Liu Zhi who was guarding the Gouzhu village and said, "How long can you guard the Gouzhu village?"

Liu Zhi was originally a guard of the Jinyang Palace in the Sui Dynasty. When Li Yuan raised his troops, Liu Zhi, who was the guard of the Jinyang Palace, was loyal to the Sui Dynasty.He took off his armor and returned to the village to serve his parents.Originally, Liu Zhi had nothing to do with the world and wanted to live a peaceful life.However, when Li Yuanji fled, the rout soldiers around him ransacked the village where Liu Zhi was located.

Liu Zhi's parents, wife and children all died tragically under the attack of the rout.However, Liu Zhi had a great fate and was later rescued by Fan Junzhang. After Fan Junzhang knew what happened to Liu Zhi, in order to establish the justice of Li Tang's tyranny and Liu Wuzhou, he appointed Liu Zhi, who had a blood feud with Li Tang, as a lieutenant of Tianxing Military Academy.

However, Liu Wuzhou's Tianxing Kingdom was different from the military system of the Tang Dynasty. Li Tang followed the military system of the Sui Dynasty, but Liu Wuzhou created a military system of his own, with 500 people as a song and a military marquis.Two thousand people form a battalion, and there are school captains in the battalion.Liu Zhi, the school lieutenant, in terms of the number of soldiers and horses of the commander in chief, is actually equal to the number of troops in the middle of the Tang army.

After all, Liu Zhi was from the regular army.Not born in Yeluzi, he is quite strict in speaking and doing things.When Liu Wuzhou asked him, he thought for a while and said, "If there is no support, the troops of the minister's headquarters can resist the Tang army for ten days!"

"It doesn't take ten days, after three days and three nights, abandon the ditch and Zhuzhai." Liu Wuzhou said: "After three days, I will retreat!"

Hearing that Liu Wuzhou only asked him to guard for three days and three nights, Liu Zhi's confidence increased greatly: "I promise to complete the task!"

Liu Wuzhou nodded in satisfaction, and led all his retinues and guards of honor back to the big tent of the Chinese army in Baishi Fort.

Liu Wuzhou didn't know, his self-confidence was too much.

Chen Ying is not an ordinary person, and guessing Chen Ying with the way of thinking of ordinary people is the biggest failure in itself.
