Taihang and Wangwu Mountains, seven hundred li square and ten thousand miles high, are in the south of Jizhou and north of Heyang. Please search () to see the most complete! fastest updated novel

After Ji Qin led a public army composed of thousands of Xintian people to bypass the foothills of Wangwu Mountain, the mountain became more and more uneven, the road gradually narrowed, the rolling hills occupied the sky, a road full of thorns and shrubs, wolves, foxes The sheep intestine path where he lives winds forward.

This is the important channel of Taihang Mountain: Zundao. The end of the axle, the road of the road, means that this road can only allow one road (car) to pass. So the team pulled back and forth for miles, like a long snake crawling through the mountains.

In normal times, this kind of road is extremely difficult to walk, not to mention the rainy season at the end of June?

Ji Qin started from Xintian ten days ago, and climbed the **** from the bottom of the Qinhe Valley to the top of Taihang. Coupled with the sparse rain, the soldiers felt that moss was growing on their bodies, and they only hoped for a dry place to rest for a few days.

However, their first destination has finally arrived, and that is the stone fortress that spans the peaks: Zunguan.

Guancheng is located on the ancient pass road of the left high mountain and the right deep valley. The terrain is dangerous. Although there are only a thousand people left behind, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

This place belongs to the Han family, but in the eyes of Ji Qin, although the six ministers are shaped like six kingdoms, they are all courtiers of Jinhou. It is not difficult to pass the customs clearance.

However, what Ji Qin never expected was that when he took his personal guards to climb to the pass, he was closed.

"Doctor Ji, you should send a letter first," they were able to drive up the mountain pass after the soldiers pushed them. , "In that case, we can send someone to **** us. The safety of the mountain road is not as good as before. Although you are carrying so many people, why do you want to?"

Duan Gui looked behind Ji Qin. Because of the narrow pass, his army stayed halfway up the mountain and saw the flags and flags in the distance.

Ji Qin didn't have so many demands. He just hoped that the Han family would open the door quickly and let him lead the troops to "convey the meaning of the monarch" to the Zhao family.

However, Duan Ji smiled and refused.

Ji Qin was furious: "Bold Han's retainer! Open your eyes. Look at this flag, look at this scepter and axe. I came here with your ruler's order. Could it be that the Han family intends to disobey and betray Jin?" "

Duan Gui laughed and said, "Doctor Ji is serious, I'm only a small retainer, how dare I have such courage. It's unfortunate to say that it has been raining heavily these days, and the road after the pass has been washed away by floods and rock flows. I'm afraid the doctor won't be able to get through it, so it's better to go back the same way. How about going through the Fukou Road outside Mengmen Pass by borrowing the way from the Zhao family?"

Ji Qin was furious. He was originally the party of the Bank of China, but now he has taken refuge with the ruling Zhi Bo. Although he has not made it public, Ji Qin already knows that Zhi Bo secretly changed his previous attitude. Ready to contain Zhao's power, how could he borrow from the eldest son? What's more, according to the latest news, after the Zhao clan swept Hanoi, they actually sent someone to take Fan Wei, the captured doctor, to defraud the Mengmen gate. For Zhi Qin, a party member of Zhi and Bank of China. That's a dead end...

He raised his head and shouted and threatened: "I am on the mission of the monarch, and I am going to Hanoi to mediate the chaos between the Zhao clan and Erqing. You actually stopped me. This is the crime of annihilating the family!"

Duan Ji was unmoved.

In fact, when the Zhi clan was almost fighting in the east, they sent someone to intervene in the name of the Marquis of Jin to stop it. Zhao Wuxi had expected it. After conquering Fan and the Communist Party, he specially negotiated with Han Hu, and he wanted to send a reliable retainer to guard the main road, the Yangchangban and other places. Try to block the passage of troops from the west until August.

Although Duan Gui obeyed his orders, Zhao Wuxi's bold attitude and aggressive actions shocked him. The Zhao family has the final say, whether it is the Marquis of Jin or the ruling party, it doesn't matter!

Looking at the 5,000 people from Qin Qin who were stationed halfway up the mountain, Duan Gui could only pray for a few more rains to prevent them from attacking brazenly. His mission is not to let these people pass the border and attack the interior of Zhao Hanhe, because the soldiers and personnel there have been recruited to attack Chaoge...

Duan Gui had never experienced the battlefields of Qinshui, Fan, and Gong, and naturally he couldn't make an intuitive judgment. He just thought that Han Hu's move was a bit risky based on common sense.

He murmured: "The gentleman is still too young and too loyal, because he was broken on the battlefield and caused Zhao Qing to be injured, he has always felt guilty, and was willing to accompany Zhao Wuxi to do this kind of ignorance. Sovereign orders and governance. As a result, Zhao Han has greatly offended Xintian. If the governance supports Fan and Zhongxing, and the main culprit is determined, the Han family may not be able to get rid of the relationship... The survival of the clan depends on the honor and disgrace. Zhao's body, is this really good? I don't know, what happened to the war on Chaoge's side?"

With Duan Gui's smart mind, he couldn't think of any quick solutions for Zhao Wuxi. Looking at the world, there was never any quick way to attack a city, let alone breaking the city in July, even if it was delayed until winter, It's possible to put it off until next year!

...

As early as mid-to-late June, more than half a month after Fan Ji's shooting of the Gongcheng, the Zhao-Han coalition forces had finished resting and attacked the Chaoge City.

Chaoge is located in the yin of Qishui. As the former capital of Yin and Shang, it was once "most defenseless", with an inner city but no outer Guo, and no city wall was built. It is because of this that King Wu of Zhou was able to bring the elites of Zhou people to Muye. After defeating the Yin people in the First World War, they continued to advance, destroying the Dayi merchants in one day, and destroying the 600-year-old Sheji.

When the Wu Geng Rebellion was settled and Wei Kangshu was entrusted to this place, he learned his lesson and built the outer guo outside the inner city. Of course, given the technical level at that time, it was actually a Tuweizi that was one or two or three feet tall. When the people went south, Chaoge was captured without much effort.

It was not until a hundred years ago that this place fell into the hands of the Fan family that Chaoge was really operated. It was reinforced and expanded many times, making it a strong city for the Fan family to the east of Taihang, and it was also the family base.

So when Zhao Wuxi led the army to arrive, under the setting sun, he saw this scene:

This city is large in scale, surrounded by 10,000 mu of fertile and green fields of millet straw, with the Qishui River as a danger in the east, and the Taihang Mountains as a barrier in the west. Jade seal.

Even Zhao Wuxi, who was determined to conquer this place, couldn't help but praised: "The poem is said to be thousands of miles away from Gebang, and it is true that Weimin stops."

Xiang Lu, a mobile encyclopedia, added as if reciting: "Chao Singers, which means singing the dawn, welcoming the rising sun, prospering and prospering. Some people also say that King Zhou sat on the Chaoge Lutai, singing and dancing in the morning and evening. Vocal music, hence the name Chaoge."

He paused for a while, then said: "But in the eyes of the ministers, today's Chaoge people don't have this kind of grace and enjoyment."

Yes, the trees that used to be a landscape outside Songcheng have been cut down, houses have been burnt down, wells have been filled up, or dead sheep and chickens have been thrown into it for pollution. This big city is now shocked three times a day, and it is ready to stand up to the enemy.

Zhao Wuxi looked behind him. After the battle of Gongcheng, the casualties were reduced. There were still more than 10,000 people in the Zhao and Han armies who could fight again. Wan Dajun. In addition, nearly 10,000 people over the age of 17 were recruited from Wenxian County, Han's territory, and Fan, and they were forced to do hard work without training.

This mighty 30,000 people swept away several satellite towns in Chaoge, then deployed scouts dozens of miles away, and set up a defense line of thousands of people along the Qishui coast. At the end of summer, the Qishui River was turbulent, and Fan's Xiaoyi on the other side did not dare to cross the water to rescue, but he had to be on guard.

Without worries, you can attack the city with all your strength, but this Chaoge City is still very difficult to attack.

From a distance, Chaoge draws clear Qishui as a moat and surrounds it like a jade belt. Part of the outer wall is about 50 feet high, the top is also 50 feet wide, and the base is 70 feet thick! The city wall is more than a thousand feet wide from east to west, and more than two thousand feet long from north to south! It is indeed a fortified city of "thousands of households".

Fortunately, Fan Jishe had already emptied the soldiers from this city and suffered several major defeats. It is estimated that there were only more than 2,000 soldiers who escaped into the city with Xingyin, plus the more than 1,000 guards in the city~www.readwn.com~ and the new recruits from the north bank of Qishui, the total number did not exceed 6,000.

But the trouble is that Chaoge has a large number of accounts, not to mention that there are many people who have escaped from all directions. According to reports from spies, all the old and weak, women and children were driven to the north bank of Qishui so as not to waste food, and men over five feet were detained. As a result, not counting soldiers, there are still 30,000 to 40,000 young people in the city, but anyone who can walk and carry bags will be threatened by Zhao Bing, who likes to slaughter and mobilize them to help. Do the garrison work, pull up the city wall to make up the number.

To sum up, the number of defenders even surpassed those who attacked the city, and the art of war was surrounded by ten, so this battle was not easy to fight.

Zhao Wuxi originally planned to use a trick to lure the defenders out of the city, but Zhong Xingyin and Liu Xiang were both his defeated generals. After learning the lessons of the unfavorable field battle, he actually defended the city and ignored the big gap that Zhao Bing deliberately exposed, so he could only The siege attacked.

30,000 people were indeed not enough to surround such a big city. After setting up camp and encircling the south wall and the southwest and southeast corners of the city, the commander Zhao Wuxi held a military meeting.

He looked at the retainers and said, "It seems that the enemy has made up his mind, thinking that we can't break the city quickly, we have to defend it, two or three sons, do you have a plan to break the city?"

Everyone in the tent fell into contemplation. The two armies faced each other, especially when sieging the city. The strategy is not omnipotent. In the final analysis, strength is the fundamental decision of victory or defeat. Just like the remnants of the Erqing in the city, they are like tortoises with their heads shrinking. No matter the temptation, they just refuse to leave the city. As for hard attack, there are only a few commonly used methods of siege in this era. That's it.

But which one should be used? (To be continued.)
