Great Sui Dynasty

After tens of thousands of people fought hard to fill the river for two hours, Yu Wenshu's army finally paved a siege road 20 meters wide and tens of meters long. For this, they also paid heavy casualties of nearly 5000 troops.This was the case when Yang Xuangan ordered the defenders to save their bows and arrows. If the offensive of ten thousand arrows fired at the beginning was maintained until Yuwenshu's army filled the river, at least tens of thousands of lives could be harvested.It wasn't that Yang Xuangan didn't want to maintain that kind of attack, because once Yu Wenshu's army had filled the river, the siege battle would just begin.It’s just that although Hongnong Palace is not short of food and grass, the equipment for defending the city is seriously insufficient. Although Yang Guangzheng transferred most of the equipment from Gaoli, the most important thing is to serve as a palace with plenty of soldiers and food. Rebellion, the difficulty of suppressing it can be imagined.So in order to save the defense equipment, Yang Xuangan had to watch helplessly as the moat was filled up little by little.

"General, the last general is fortunate enough to pave a way for the army." Yang Zhiji replied to Yu Wenshu after seeing that the task was completed.

"Very well, the county lord has worked hard, go back to camp and rest, and leave the rest to me." It turned out that Yang Zhiji was the son of Yang Zheng, the younger brother of Yang Jian, Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty. Holding a heavy army, Yu Wenshu asked him to fill the river in order to weaken the power of the Sui Dynasty.

"Then I wish the General a victory and take down the traitor Yang Xuangan as soon as possible!" Yang Zhiji is the one who wants to put down Yang Xuangan's rebellion as soon as possible. The method, who asked Yu Wenshu to lead the military, without his order, who would dare to go to war without authorization?Moreover, although he himself is a nobleman of the royal family, he is only a small eunuch in terms of official position, far inferior to Yu Wenshu's General Zuowei. In terms of title, he is the Duke of the state, and he himself is the Duke of the county, which is not of the same level at all. Yes, it's okay if Yuwenshu is not favored, but the current Yuwen family is the absolute number one favorite family, and there is nothing to do but to act according to people's faces.

"Send the order, the first echelon begins to attack the city." Yu Wenshu finally started to mobilize his own army. Although he knew that the first wave of siege would not achieve any results, what Yu Wenshu wanted was only the offensive and momentum to use To boost the morale of his own side, he didn't believe that the soldiers and horses in each county could have any kind of momentum.

"All the catapults are dispatched, hit me hard, and they will smash a gap in the wall of Hongnong Palace." Following Yu Wenshu's order, ten catapults were rolled out from behind the camp, and the huge The catapult is far from comparable to the catapult made by Wang Bo's bandit army. This is an authentic domestic product, and the equipment that can only be equipped by the Central Army. When the 20 army saw this siege weapon, their morale was immediately boosted. If there were catapults to suppress Yang Xuangan's archers, their casualties would be much less, and they might be able to attack the city in one fell swoop.

Of course, some people were not happy. Yang Zhiji's face was very dark. If Yu Wenshu had brought out the catapult to help suppress the archers, the casualties of the river filling in several counties would have been greatly reduced.Yang Zhiji clenched his fists tightly, but the anger in his heart had no place to vent, "Yu Wenshu must have done it on purpose. He deliberately weakened our strength. No matter what the purpose is, he can't tolerate it. Brother Huang, open your eyes and see, your favorite!" What kind of people are they!"

"Hold on! Give me the freedom to fight back, be careful of the enemy's stones!" Yang Xuangan defended the city extremely hard, the attack below the city was fierce, and he was threatened by flying stones on his head, not to mention how depressed he was. If there was no threat of catapults, Yang Xuangan would dare to be 20% I am sure, even if Yu Wenshu has 10 more troops, he will not be able to attack his Hongnong Palace guarded by [-] people. After all, more than three times the army can besiege the city, five times more can attack the city, and ten times more can completely capture a defense. Completely insisted, of course, the premise of all this is that the attacking side does not have heavy siege equipment. Now that Yu Wenshu has a catapult, everything is hard to say. No wonder he only concentrated on attacking one.

"My lord, the situation is very unfavorable to us, do you want the support from other sects?!" Zhao Huaiyi suggested.

"No need, no matter how many people come, it's useless, no matter how many people there are, they still dare not stick their heads out." Yang Xuangan rejected this proposal.

"Pay attention, don't poke your head out, just throw the rolling stone against the city wall." Yang Xuangan could only use this unreasonable method to stop the enemy's attack on the city.

"Why haven't Faxuan and Li Shangshu arrived?!" Yang Xuangan dodged a stone and shouted at the guards beside him.

"Jungong and Li Shangshu are under the city, and they are about to come up." A guard replied, so many stones fell from the sky, you let them come up to seek death.

"My lord, what's the situation?" Li Mi hurried to find Yang Xuangan on the city wall and asked hurriedly.

"It's not optimistic. The main reason is that the threat of the catapult is too great. The soldiers can't probe at all and can only be beaten passively." Yang Xuangan said helplessly.

"Oh!" Li Mi replied, and carefully poked his head out to take a look, only to see dozens of trebuchets on the other side of the moat continuously throwing stones.

"My lord, they don't have many catapults, and this round of catapults should be over soon. After all, catapults cannot operate for a long time. It will take at least a quarter of an hour before this round of catapults is over. We have a moment clock time to repel the enemy's siege." Li Mi said.

"Oh, okay, tell the soldiers to stick to it. The enemy's trebuchets are about to stop. It's time for us to fight back." Especially Yang Xuangan also knew that the trebuchets couldn't work for a long time, but the scene was too chaotic and he was anxious. Chaos, so I didn't realize it for a while, but after Li Mi said this, he calmed down again.

"Father, that's great. You see, Yang Xuangan can't lift his head up because of the pressure. Our soldiers are about to climb the city wall." Yuwen Shiji said excitedly.

"Hey~" But Yu Wenshu sighed at this time.

"Why is father sighing? Our soldiers are about to attack the city wall. We should be happy. Do you want to command the army to attack the city together?" Yuwen Shiji was very happy when he saw that his soldiers were about to climb the enemy's city wall.

"This time the offensive can only end here. The catapults can't work for a long time. If it weren't for the long distance, I would definitely bring more catapults for my father. Then it is possible to defeat this strong city in one battle. What a pity~" Yu Wen The sigh mentioned above is not only a sigh for not being able to seize the great opportunity, but also a sigh for the lack of understanding of military affairs by Yuwen scholars and his own Yuwen family. When he really went to the battlefield to judge, he was sighing for the future of Yuwen's family.

"General, Yu Wenshu has begun to attack the city, with an army of 30 to [-], that scene is quite spectacular." A spy came back and reported the news to Li Jing.

"The fight has finally started, we have been nesting here for a few days, presumably the hearts of all the soldiers are itching, so let's join in the fun.

"Take care Yang Lang, be careful in everything, swords have no eyes, Mingyue is waiting for you to come back." Yang Hao bid farewell to Yinmingyue when he learned that Yu Wenshu had begun to attack the city.

"I know, when I come back, after calming down Yang Xuangan, I will definitely come back and marry Mingyue into the door!" Just getting together and about to part, Yang Hao really has the urge to want a beauty instead of a country, but think about his previous efforts , or embark on the journey again cruelly, but how long will it take to meet the bright moon this time?
