I am not an ant thief in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 451, Soldiers approaching the city

Wei County, the headquarters of the Great Army!
Jia Xu and a group of staff marked the information obtained on the battlefield in an extremely huge sand table. This sand table includes the terrain and city camps of Yanzhou, Qingzhou, Xuzhou, and Yuzhou. Army soldier model!
"The latest battle report shows that Huanglong has joined Duan Peng. They defeated Lu Bu's 3 cavalry in Lihu, killing and killing 8000 of them, and our army suffered [-] casualties! Now everyone has marched towards Juyang, and Dingtao will be in the midst of three days at most. Our army is under attack!" Jia Xu said, pointing at the sand table.Then push the soldier models representing Huanglong and Duan Peng to Juyang City!

"General Wang Yong has conquered Wuyan City, and now he is marching towards Rencheng Kingdom. The journey of this army is a little bit longer, and there are still more than [-] miles to attack Changyi. In addition, several cities have to be wiped out. It will take about ten days to reach Changyi! This still requires the Han army not to continue reinforcements."

Xu Wei looked at the sand table and said: "Let Huanglong Pushuihe attack Chengshi City first, and Chengshi City is sandwiched between Dingtao and Changyi, dividing our two armies, it is difficult for them to form a joint force, and it is a threat to our army. , and Huanglong's marching speed is too fast, attacking Chengshi City can just wipe out the periphery of Dingtao and Changyi, and at the same time let Huanglong and the others wait for Wang Yong and the others! After all, Liu Bei has nearly 20 troops in Dingtao and Changyi!"

A staff officer conveyed Xu Wei's order!Although there is no radio in this era, Xu Wei has already popularized Feige Passing Letters throughout Dagan, so this news can still be quickly conveyed to Huanglong and the others!
To be honest, Xu Wei was still a little worried about Huang Long confronting Liu Bei and others.Because even if he saw the generals from Dingtao and Changyi, he was frightened. Four of Liu Bei's five tigers came (Ma Chao is now in Xiliang, which can be regarded as the establishment of a large army), and almost all Jiangdong fierce generals came. Sun Ce is in Changyi, Cao Cao, five sons of good generals, Dian Wei, Xu Chu, Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Cao Hong and so on.

It can be said that most of the famous ministers and fierce generals of Wei, Shu and Wu have become the enemies of the Dagan army. Dozens of generals have come.Faced with such a lineup, how could he let Huanglong face Liu Bei and the others with inferior forces!
And Jia Xu waited for Xu Wei to give the order and continued: "General Yang Feng of the West Road Army has occupied all of Chenliu County, and is now tentatively attacking the two cities of Yuanwu and Yangwu, but there is no progress. Both cities have more than 3 people. The strength of the troops, and more and more reinforcements from Luoyang City, Yuan Shaojun even started to fight back!"

"Fortunately, we wiped out Yuan Shao's 10 troops in Yanzhou in the early stage, and Yuan Shao mobilized the Yuzhou army to support Dingtao. Now the two sides are deadlocked on the border."

Xu Wei said: "Let Yang Feng guard Chenliu County, his main task is to contain the army of Luoyang City, so that it is difficult for them to join Yuan Shao and others in the Central Plains!"

Jia Xu continued: "General Li Gang has not made much progress on the east road. Taishan County has the Taishan Mountains. Now Zang Ba commands an army of 5 to block us from Taishan County, while Xia Houyuan leads an army of 3 to station in Licheng. Our army is blocking Qingzhou, and General Li Gang asked for naval support to attack Qingzhou from the Yellow River! General Li Gang believes that Qingzhou has been surrounded by us on both sides, and Cao Cao's strength is relatively weak. Now the coalition forces of the princes are contained by us in the Central Plains. Annihilate Cao Cao's army first, and cut off an arm of the coalition of princes!"

Xu Wei said: "Refused to accept, let Li Gang do a good job of restraining Qingzhou if we can't take it down. Our first task now is to defeat the Han army in Yanzhou!"

Then Xu Wei said to Zhang Baiqi: "Tomorrow I will lead an army of 10 across the Yellow River to support Huanglong and the others. You will be in the headquarters and have the power to ensure the safety of the food and grass on the front line. This will directly affect whether we can conquer Dingtao and Changzhou. Yi defeated Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, the three biggest princes of the Han Dynasty!"

"If there is no accident, the two armies of Huanglong and Wang Yong will reach the front line of Dingtao and Changyi within 10 days. Adding my 40 troops, the entire Central Plains will have [-] troops. Such a huge army consumes food, grass and weapons. The number is very large. Food, grass and supplies are very important, and this is even related to the victory or defeat of our main army in the Central Plains!"

Zhang Baiqi said, "Right now, people from all over Jizhou are quickly transporting grain, grass, and supplies to the Central Plains. However, my subordinates feel that the ruling party should send some officials to Yanzhou to organize the people in Yanzhou. This will reduce the pressure on the people in Jizhou! Now We have occupied more than half of Yanzhou, there should be tens of millions of people in these places, and given the current situation in Yanzhou, recruiting these people now is to help them survive!"

This year's Yanzhou not only suffered from drought, but also suffered from military disasters. Hundreds of thousands of troops galloped in Yanzhou.

Although Jizhou has a lot of young and strong, but this time it provided 20 troops and nearly a million civilians. Now there are really not many young and strong in Jizhou. Zhang Baiqi is also worried that too many young and strong recruits will affect Jizhou's grain harvest. !

Xu Wei nodded and said: "You find a way to transfer a group of officials from Jizhou to Yanzhou, organize the people in Yanzhou, and guarantee our logistics!"

After arranging the logistics affairs, Xu Wei crossed the Yellow River from Weijun with 10 troops, and the army marched towards Dingtao!

Yanzhou Dongping Kingdom, Dongpinglu, and the army after Wang Yong surrounded Pinglu on three sides!After that, the artillery bombarded for half an hour, and after the city was bombarded with pits, the three-way army stormed Dongpinglu with artillery, and Dongpinglu, which had only 3000 defenders, was conquered within half an hour!

Seeing that the city could no longer be defended, Han Meng retreated all the way from the south gate with the defeated soldiers, but just as he withdrew into the city, he was chased and killed by Duan Yun's iron cavalry. Thousands of soldiers in his hands fled dead, and Han Meng himself He was even chased and hacked to death by Duan Yun!

After Dongpinglu was captured, only Ningyang in the entire Dongping Kingdom had not yet been conquered. Wang Yong immediately ordered Duan Yun to send 1 cavalry to conquer the three counties of Rencheng, Kangfu, and Fanxian in Rencheng Kingdom!The remaining cavalry was divided into two groups by Wang Yongbing, attacking Jinxiang in Shanyang County on the one hand, and attacking Juye in Shanyang County on the other.

Wang Yong already knew through the intelligence system of the Dagan Army that Huanglong and the others had conquered Juyang and Chengyang, and now they are only a few hundred miles away from Dingtao. Relatively speaking, he is not only five or six miles away from the original target Changyi City It was a hundred miles away, and there were still many cities blocking him, so he divided Duan Yun's cavalry into three groups, and wanted Duan Yun and the others to quickly clear away the obstacles between attacking Changyi!
The current Yanzhou made Wang Yong irritated by this point. Each city and Wubao had not many soldiers, but they were extremely strong. Without gunpowder, it would be difficult to conquer without enough troops.

But it can't be left alone, these fortresses and cities will affect the safety of the army's food roads, and because these cities delay Wang Yong's marching speed, Huanglong and the others only need to deal with the forts and castles within the range of two counties at most. , and Wang Yong needs to penetrate the five counties in order to reach Changyi, which is almost across the entire Yanzhou. All his routes are in prosperous areas with many cities and people, so the cities that need to be attacked There are many more than Huanglong and the others!
Sanyang County, Changyi is successful!
Guan Yu led some personal guards out of Changyicheng, looking at the northern sky!Although the sky was clear, Guan Yu could feel that the sky was filled with red flames in the north!

Several groups of people from Juye, Jinxiang and other places have come to ask for help, all of them are asking Guan Yu for help!But Guan Yu refused to accept all these requests for help!

"Marquis of Guan Jun, why don't we take the initiative to attack the Dagan army who passed by in Dongping? That Wang Yong is arrogant and arrogant. He dared to divide his troops into three groups in the face of our [-] army. We should take this opportunity to take the initiative to annihilate Wang Yong. Two groups of people! Let them know that I am not easy to be bullied by a big man," Sun Ce suggested to Guan Yu.

Wang Yong is also too rampant, knowing that their 8 troops are stationed in Changyi City, he dared to take the initiative to divide the troops. This is simply not looking at them!

Guan Yu stroked his beard and said helplessly: "We only have 1000 cavalry, and we will definitely not be the opponent of the Dagan army in a field war. If we send out a large army now, we will give up the strong city of Changyi and face the strengths of the Dagan army. Not the work of a wise man!"

In the whole of Yanzhou, there are not many strong cities like Changyi, especially the moat in front of Changyi is the Sishui River. It has a long range, but to be honest, it is not as powerful or lethal as the Feilei Cannon. With the strong city walls of Changyi, Guan Yu is not worried about the artillery, but the Feilei Cannon!
After all, a cannonball weighing more than ten catties of gunpowder, and no one survived within 10 steps, which made the bravery of these generals completely useless.

As long as you are hit by a flying thunder cannon, it doesn't matter whether you are an enemy of ten thousand people or a small soldier.

So after he led the army to Changyi, he was appointed by Liu Bei, Yuan Shao and others as the chief general of Changyi, and he began to command the soldiers and the surrounding people to dig deep trenches, build low walls, and expand the moat to a hundred steps away. If you want to find a way to enhance the power of Changyi to resist the flying thunder cannon, but if the cannon shoots more than 1 mile, Guan Yu is powerless!
As for counterattacking Guan Yu, he didn't dare to think about it. There were 5 cavalry on the opposite side, and the field opponents would definitely lose. Now he can only wait in Changyi for Wang Yong to attack.

Sanyang County, Juye City.

Zhang Huo raised his head to the sky and screamed, his whole body was unstoppable, his saber was like thunder, anyone who approached him would be killed by him!Then push the corpse down the wall! "Kill, kill the enemy!"

Encouraged by Zhang Huo's bravery, the morale of the Han army was greatly shaken, and they fought fiercely with the large army who had climbed the city wall, and knocked down the soldiers who had climbed the city wall again.

The hero of the enemy, the enemy of us, Wang Yong said angrily when he saw such a brave general under the city wall: "Blast him to death with a flying thunder cannon!"

Immediately, Sanmen Flying Thunder God was placed 100 steps below Zhang Huocheng!

"Puff puff!"

"Be careful, general!" Zhang Huo protected him!
"Boom boom boom!" But the shock wave of the explosion still instantly blasted them into the air, and Zhang Huo hit the city wall with his whole body. Suddenly, he felt the energy and blood in his body churning, and spit out a mouthful of blood!

"Kill!" The generals and soldiers of the Dagan army roared like thunder below the city, taking advantage of the gap between the attack of the flying thunder cannon, they all quickly climbed up the ladder and tried their best to climb the city wall!
Already had the experience of attacking more than a dozen cities, Wang Yong and the others finally had the intention of combining infantry and artillery.Although it is not too strong now, it can already more than double their efficiency in attacking cities.

Several cities of the Han army were bombed by their artillery, and then soldiers attacked and attacked them in waves.

Artillery bombardment and infantry rush have become Wang Yong's trump card tactics. As long as the defenders in the city are not particularly brave, a wave can usually knock down the morale of the defenders.

Just when the Dagan army was about to climb the city wall, a spear came down and immediately stabbed the soldiers on the ladder. With a long and shrill cry, the Dagan army soldiers fell down the city wall, and corpses piled up on the wall. It is like a mountain, and the blood is like a gurgling stream. There are soldiers of the Han army and soldiers of the Han army!
"Boom, boom, boom" Wang Yong saw the fierce resistance of the Han army, and increased the frequency of the bombardment of the thunder cannons. The sound of the artillery was deafening, and every time it happened, a large number of Han soldiers would surely fall!There will be a huge vacancy within ten steps of the shell, and soldiers in this range will bleed to death from their seven orifices.

The soldiers of the Han army fell down in pieces, and their death conditions were still so horrific. They were finally afraid and never wanted to face such a terrifying enemy, so they discarded their swords one by one and escaped from this hell!
The soldiers of the Dagan Army boarded the city wall one after another after the number of Han soldiers on the city wall decreased, and then formed an army formation to quickly rush to both sides of the city wall to kill!

Zhang Zan was seriously injured, and he watched helplessly as his city was captured by the army!"Our reinforcements are there!" he yelled, before crashing to the ground.

Wang Yong looked at Zhang Zan from under the city wall and said with a smile: "The future is not the era of fierce generals, but the era of artillery!"

At this time, the soldiers on the city wall had already killed the city wall and opened the city gate!

Wang Yong waved his hand and said, "Enter the city wall and let the soldiers of the Han army surrender to us!"

The soldiers of the Dagan Army entered through the city gate, and then kept shouting loudly: "Surrender without killing, surrender without killing!"

The commander of the Han army is dead, and the city walls have been conquered, so after hearing the sound of the whole city surrendering without killing, the soldiers of the Han army found the Dagan army one by one, and then threw away their swords and surrendered to them.

The Juye, the gateway to Sanyang County, was conquered!
As Juye was conquered, the other two armies of the Dagan Army also reported success. Every two days, a city would surely be conquered, and soon there was only one city left in front of them, Changyi!
Huanglong also captured Chengshi City long ago, and led the army to surround Dingtao City.At the same time, he also got in touch with Wang Yong's army.

For Liu Bei and the others, soldiers are already approaching the city.
