Take a plane to the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 250 Attacking Yun County ([-])
"General, my father has been worrying about military affairs for the past few days, and he is in a bad condition! I can't come to apologize to the general in person, please general Haihan!" Li Dingguo was on the top of the wall, facing Zhu Changyuan full of anger, and then said: "My father promised that he will not talk to the general from now on. In a difficult situation, I swear that I will never step into the land of Jingxiang. Why bother to chase after him. Besides, Yunyang Mansion is not as easy to attack as Gucheng. Even if the general is proficient, it is not easy to take down Yunyang in one fell swoop. The world is in chaos today. , Those who are as capable as a general have accumulated a lot of money, so why bother to do such a thing."

After hearing what Li Dingguo had said, Zhu Changyuan smiled.

When I took this guy to fight in the past, I just thought he was a little baby who didn't grow up, but I didn't expect that he could be so eloquent today.

"Hahaha." Zhu Changyuan laughed with a loudspeaker, and said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Today is the day Zhang Xianzhong died. I think General Li is also a man. Why don't you surrender to the imperial court? Under my general's command, you can also be a good man." Director of the exhibition."

Li Dingguo shook his head resolutely, and said: "Father commander treats me with great kindness, the general must not make jokes."

"In this case, let's not talk too much, set the country, and see how I will attack the city." Zhu Changyuan showed an intriguing smile on his face, and continued to speak with a loudspeaker: "I will let you see it today, fish to death! But the net won't break."

Turning his head towards his brothers, he shouted loudly: "Brothers, prepare to attack the city!"

Why do you say it is preparation and siege, not siege.

Because it really took some preparations to attack Yunyang.

Like Gucheng, Yunyang Mansion is backed by the Han River and has abundant water sources. The difference is that it also has a wide moat connected to the Han River, which has caused some trouble for the siege artifact.

To poke the wall with this thing, you have to figure out a way to cross the river first.

The river is very wide, about ten feet or 30 meters. Zhu Changyuan asked people to go down for a try. It was not particularly deep, but it was also as deep as one person.

And even if people can swim over it, rushing cars can't make it through!

There is a way, which is very stupid, which is to fill the moat with soil like when Shenyang was attacked, but Yunyang is located in a canyon, surrounded by rocks, which is the only convenience compared to Shenyang.

"Everyone, move stones, throw stones!" Zhu Changyuan gave an order, and all 5000 subordinates mobilized, picked up stones from nearby and began to throw them from one end of the moat.

Of course, Li Dingguo would not be idle at the top of the city. Seeing that the other side had already started to prepare for the siege, he ordered all the crossbowmen to go up the city wall and shoot at Zhu Changyuan's troops.

However, the bird was useless. First, the distance was a bit long, and the bow and crossbow lost its strength early when it reached the city river. Second, Zhu Changyuan's soldiers were all wearing armor, especially the two hundred heavy armored cavalry, who specially placed stones in front.

Li Dingguo shot a rain of arrows on the armor, and the jingling was useless except for the sound.

In order to save manpower and material resources, Zhu Changyuan's method of building side roads is very simple, and the side roads are only barely usable. Why do you say that, because the stone road is not only uneven, but also very narrow, only two meters wide, half None of them stay in the water without showing their heads.

When the car went down, the entire wheel was submerged, but it didn't matter. Now it's for siege, not for construction. It doesn't matter if the quality is poor, just pass it.

"General! Shooting is useless, what should I do?" The general at the top of the city was afraid of Zhu Changyuan, and his own attack was still useless against the enemy. Although Zhu Changyuan's road was still one-tenth of the useless, he was already scratching his head anxiously.

"Yes, General, what should I do?"

"Don't worry!" Li Dingguo managed to calm down, and said: "Stop shooting, stop shooting first!" After letting everyone stop, he said: "The enemy is about to attack the city, at least half a day or even a day, you go down to the city quickly, and prepare more Some stones, dry firewood, and tung oil, so they can fight back when they attack."

"Yes!" After Li Dingguo finished speaking, thousands of people went down to transport defense supplies.

Zhu Changyuan's troops outside the city were in full swing, and the soldiers on the top of the city were panicked.

There was another person who was even more flustered. He was looking at Tang Bingshuo in the Yunyang mansion with a sad face.

"Marshal, you have to eat something!" Tang Bingshuo pointed to the plate on the table and said, "Marshal, you should eat something."

"Alas!" Zhang Xianzhong shook his head, inserted his fingers into his disheveled hair, and said with a terrible headache, "This Zhu Changyuan, alas! I, Zhang Xianzhong, have been blinded by lard, so why do you want to provoke him? This guy is a dog skin plaster .”

"Dog skin plaster! Dog skin plaster! Dog skin plaster!" Zhang Xianzhong stood up and said while patting the table. He said it three times in one breath, and patted it hard three times. "It's stained, and I can't even tear it off!"

"Think of me, Zhang Xianzhong, as a hero of the generation!" Zhang Xianzhong didn't mean to brag about himself, "It's been nearly ten years across Sichuan, Shaanxi and South China, when did he suffer from such uselessness, even he!" After a pause, he picked up his glass and took a sip of wine, "Even if he, Zuo Liangyu, came, this commander has never been so disgraced."

"200 people, 200 people, broke my commander's [-] army. Hehe, haha!" Zhang Xianzhong beat his chest and stamped his feet like crazy.

"Father!" Liu Wenxiu knelt down on the ground, weeping uncontrollably.

"Get up, Wenxiu." Zhang Xianzhong's eyes flickered, and he said, "We haven't reached the end of the mountain. Now that Yang Sichang is raising troops to the north, the land of Shu is empty. Since we can't provoke Zhu Changyuan in the land of Jingxiang, why don't we go straight to Xichuan and walk in Xuande's way?" Old things?"

"Marshal is wise!" Master Tang praised first, then respectfully lifted up a bowl of meat porridge, and said, "No matter what, Marshal must take care of himself, so that he will have the capital to turn himself around in the future."

Zhang Xianzhong took it and drank it all, picked up a hot towel and wiped his face, and said, "Did Zhu Changyuan attack the city outside?"

"Not yet, but the river is being filled!" Liu Wenxiu said.

"How long can Yun Yang last?" Zhang Xianzhong asked.

"Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief." Liu Wenxiu stood up from the ground and said, "My son has torn down all the gate towers on the four sides of Yunyang City, and the gates have been soaked in stinky water day and night, and a one-foot-deep pond has been opened under the city And pour it into the river, even if Zhu Changyuan uses fire to attack this time, it will be difficult to be effective."

"En!" Zhang Xianzhong came up with this idea, so after hearing this, he felt a little relieved.

"Also." Liu Wenxiu continued: "This time Zhu Changyuan brought no more than [-] soldiers to attack the city, and our Yunyang Mansion has a full [-] soldiers. , and don’t try to bite the hard bone of Yun County.”

That's right, Zhang Xianzhong nodded: Yun County's defenses are not as tall as Gucheng's, and it's impossible to break through with one attack.

Just as Zhang Xianzhong was relieved, he suddenly thought of another thing, and asked with a frown, "Do you know what method Zhu Changyuan used to capture Shenyang Wei?"

Where is Shenyang Weishi? That is Huang Taiji's lair, the capital of the Qing Dynasty, and the location of Shengjing.

However, it was also captured overnight by Zhu Changyuan. Zhang Xianzhong just felt that the defense of Yunyang City was strong, but suddenly he felt a little guilty.

"I don't know!" Liu Wenxiu replied.

"Should it be fire attacking the city gate?" Master guessed.

Zhang Xianzhong suddenly lost his composure, his eyes were flickering, he gritted his teeth and said: "Zhu Changyuan, this person cannot be guessed by common sense, we must be fully prepared."

Turning his head suddenly, he looked at Master Tang Bingshuo and said with heartache: "Into Sichuan, as long as I enter Sichuan, I don't need everything here. Master, please help me plan how to enter Xichuan at the fastest speed. I don't want to be with you for a while. Zhu Changyuan stays together."

"Okay!" Tang Bingshuo agreed.

+ + + + + + + +
Outside the city, Zhu Changyuan spent a whole afternoon and asked the soldiers to work overtime until nine o'clock in the evening to complete the entire sidewalk and build a narrow road on the moat that was only for siege vehicles to pass through.

"Attack!" Zhu Changyuan gave an order, took out a loudspeaker and shouted: "Brothers, it's time for dinner in Yunyang Mansion."

Under the traction of locomotives and the push of manpower, ten siege artifacts slowly crossed the waterway and finally landed on the opposite side of the moat. Then, under the terrified eyes of Li Dingguo and everyone else, the artifacts withstood the city wall.

"What is this?" Li Dingguo was shocked. When he saw this black thing just now, he thought it was Zhu Changyuan's vehicle for transporting supplies. Now he saw that the soldiers on the opposite side were using it to attack the city. He couldn't help but feel a little anxious. They all broke out in cold sweat.

"Not good!" He shouted and ordered the soldiers: "Quick, quick! Throw a stone, smash it, smash me to pieces."

The soldiers on the city reacted at this time, and quickly picked up the stones and threw them down. However, although there were many stones, the effect was limited after all.

Because the stones brought up by the soldiers from the city just now were all small, and there were no particularly large stones. Unlike Shenyang, which has large stones in stock, these stones hit the thick steel plate like a scratch. It can be said that it has no effect.

"Tung oil, pour tung oil on me and burn them!"

It is useless to pour tung oil down, because there is too little tung oil, and if you throw it down, it will not light at all.

Just when Li Dingguo was in shock, suddenly there was a sound of "beep beep beep beep beep beep beep" from the city. He didn't know what it was, but Zhu Changyuan smiled slightly.

Naturally, the air compressor started and the jackhammer began to dig the city wall.

Yunyang is surrounded by mountains and there are many stones, so when building the city, a lot of stones were mixed in the sand. It was more difficult to dig with a pickaxe than Shenyang City, but the stones were not too big, and they were nothing more than buckling them down.

There are a total of 20 soldiers working inside. Every time two people go up to work, the rest are responsible for sending the cleaned soil outside by car. The work is very easy. The only bad thing is that it is dusty and difficult to breathe.

For this reason, Zhu Changyuan also bought two sets of masks for each of them in a humane manner, and 20 people took turns digging, so naturally it didn't seem so uncomfortable.

One hour, two hours.

three hours later.

The city wall was opened, and the ten gaps were like the mouths of giant beasts, black holes.

"Okay!" After the city was opened, Zhu Changyuan immediately got the news through the walkie-talkie, waved at the cavalry behind him, first led the cavalry into the city, and then, a few minutes later, all the soldiers at the top of the city ran away without a trace It was not until Polu led 5000 troops into the city.
