Great Sui Dynasty

"Both the East Daying Camp and the West Daying Camp left 2 troops under the leadership of the deputy generals. You lead the rest of the troops to gather here and concentrate your strength on attacking the city with all your might. Break through the surface and break the defense of Jiangdu City!" Yang Hao gave an order Said.The siege can only choose one to attack, their strength is less than that of Jiangdu, if they disperse and attack the city in an all-round way, the war will be dragged on indefinitely, so the overall strength is stronger than that of the defenders If so, only concentrated attacks can be adopted.

"Yes!" Zhang Xutuo, Qin Shubao and others responded with bows. They were still worried that it would not be easy for the 5 people in their hands to attack the city wall. Converging the army, although all the generals are together, the opportunity to fight needs to be won, but as a commander, it is even more impossible to fight. After all, you have to control the overall situation, just like King Qi can't personally lead troops to attack the city.

After breakfast, nearly 20 troops converged in the North Camp. Looking at the majestic and high-moralized army, Yang Hao and the generals were filled with excitement. Who would have imagined that he was an ordinary person (Yang Hao's previous life Even a small soldier), unexpectedly able to become the commander-in-chief of this army.

"There is no moat in the north of Jiangdu, and the road is smooth, which saves the great difficulty of filling the river." Yang Hao looked at the Jiangdu city without a moat guard in front of him, like a stripped white sheep, waiting for the wolf. 's arrivalAfter all, Jiangdu faces the Yangtze River in the south, so it would not take much effort to dig a moat, and the moat dug must be deep and wide.Perhaps it was because Jiangdu was not valued before Yang Guang became a fan, and before the opening of the Grand Canal, Jiangdu was far less prosperous than it is now, and it is precisely because of this that there is no need to dig a moat. After the opening of the Grand Canal, the national power of the Sui Dynasty had reached its peak, and it was never thought that Jiangdu would become a battlefield one day, and all these unknown reasons brought great convenience to Yang Hao's siege of the city.

"My lord, it is Yuwen Chengji who is guarding the north city gate. This person is not simple." Cheng Yaojin rode his horse and walked to Yang Hao's side and said, after the battle with Yuwen Chengji, Cheng Yaojin seemed to be more calm Now, I know how to value my opponent.

"Yes, Yuwen Chengji is good, but we are stronger. This king said that we should pay attention to every opponent, but now it is a large army fighting. This king will teach you one more thing. You must despise the enemy strategically and pay attention to it tactically. Enemy! No matter how strong the enemy is, it always has its weaknesses. You must have the courage to move forward!" Knowing that it is good to value the enemy, but you can't let the enemy be intimidated. Enemies are also human, and people will have weaknesses. Only with the confidence to defeat the enemy can victory be possible.

"Yes!" Cheng Yaojin, Qin Shubao, Luo Shixin, and Su Dingfang all nodded solemnly. Almost all the military theories they accepted in the army came from Yang Hao, or from Li Jing's realistic interpretation of Yang Hao's military theory, so They will carefully remember every sentence of military theory that Yang Hao said contains reason.However, Zhang Xutuo did not receive much influence from Yang Hao's military theory. After all, Zhang Xutuo was a newcomer, and Zhang Xutuo was a famous general who had been famous for more than ten years. It might be a little bit for such a person to accept a new theory entirely It's difficult, but it doesn't hinder his understanding of Yang Hao's words.But Li Jing is different. He has never been a military strategist, but only studied military theory. He slowly moved towards the direction of a military strategist until he was pulled into Qingzhou by Yang Hao. For military strategists.

"General Zhang!" Yang Hao shouted to Zhang Xutuo, who was far away from him, who was meditating. Zhang Xutuo didn't approach Yang Hao like Luo Shixin and others, because they were young men who were brought out by Yang Hao. Get closer.

"The last general is here!" Hearing Yang Hao's voice, Zhang Xutuo patted his horse to Yang Hao's side, cupped his fists and waited for Yang Hao's order.

"You lead the troops of the headquarters to dig the soil nearby with sacks. The king asked you to build a mound as high as the city next to Jiangdu City. Can you do it?!" Although there is no procedure for filling the river, but Yang Hao didn't intend to start the siege directly, he didn't have a lot of siege equipment in time, and with Jiangdu City's Gundam, even having ladders and siege vehicles would not be of much use, but without these The equipment that can directly attack the city, don't they have brains?Why are Mongolian cavalry so powerful?Why do you have to go down every city?Is it relying on infantry to attack the city?Of course not, when it comes to siege, this is the shortcoming of the nomads, but they are able to attack the city because their cavalry played an important role.

In fact, Cao Cao used to pile up soil to attack the city during the Battle of Guandu, but the efficiency was much lower and it was difficult to work. However, it is different to use cavalry to pile up soil. Causes a lot of damage, which ensures the efficiency of mounding.Of course, in addition to piling up soil, you can also build a siege. The battle of Luoyang between Li Shimin and Wang Shichong is a typical example. There are many examples of these sieges in Yang Hao's mind. Although they cannot be copied perfectly, the principle is still known. of.

Although the few carts brought by Yang Hao are more effective, Jiangdu City has tens of 10 defenders after all. If you attack, you will face a huge counterattack. If you go wrong, you will lose a lot. If you dare to guarantee that you can completely destroy the opponent in one battle, then you have to slowly wear down the morale and resistance of the opponent. Fighting a war is also a psychological warfare.

"Yes! The subordinates will guarantee it with the head of the item!" Zhang Xutuo woke up instantly after being puzzled, and looked at Yang Hao with admiration in his eyes. Who said that cavalry can only charge forward on the plains, but now it is in the hands of this prince. But it can attack the city, and it is the kind of existence that can definitely attack the city wall.

"Okay, then the first task of siege will be handed over to you first." Yang Hao is very satisfied. As expected of Zhang Xutuo, he can react as soon as he mentions it. If it weren't for someone who knows cavalry battles well It is impossible to turn around at once. The city wall of Jiangdu is so high that there is no problem for two horses to pass side by side in the aisle of the city. Once the cavalry enters the city, it is absolutely invincible.

"Dingfang, you are with General Zhang, and learn from General Zhang!" Yang Hao arranged for Su Dingfang to follow Zhang Xutuo to perform tasks together. Su Dingfang does not lack experience, but lacks systematic learning and prestige. After all, Zhang Xutuo is an old man. And Su Dingfang was just at the time when he was full of blood, and his appearance just made a conclusion for the cavalry commander in Yang Hao's heart. Luo Shixin was undoubtedly the most fierce man under his command, but he was not suitable for commanding the cavalry that Yang Hao had preset. , although Su Dingfang ranks low in martial arts, he is full of blood and is very suitable for commanding cavalry. What is a tiger and wolf cavalry?How can you rule without blood?

"Qin Qiong, you command the trebuchets to interfere with the defenders on the city, and pile up soil for General Zhang to reduce obstruction! Luo Shixin! Cheng Yaojin! The two of you lead the remaining cavalry to cruise around, pay attention to the movements of the defenders, and if the situation changes or Support or support!"

"Now, let's start!" Yang Hao drew out his long sword and pointed it at Jiangdu City!
