Eastern Jin Invincible Iron Army

Chapter 237 The Big Bang
Whether attacking a city with fire or water, it requires very large limitations.Usually, water attacking a city must be built in a low-lying place, but at the beginning of the city's construction, this factor is usually taken into account, so the possibility of water attacking is almost straightforward.Only by storing water can there be a chance to flood the city.

In ancient times, the amount of this kind of project was very large, and it was often not possible to do it in a short time.Due to the lack of supplies, the cost of fire attack is also very high.It is very difficult to hit the city correctly, and it is usually the direction of digging and attacking the city.There are two forms of digging and attacking the city. One is digging tunnels to cross the city wall and enter the city.The other is to dig under the foundation of the city wall, first support the excavated part with wooden boards, and then set fire to the brackets. Once the foundation is loosened, the city wall will collapse.The siege troops can swarm up into the gap to expand the victory.

After listening to Fu Yan's introduction, Murong Kai asked again: "General Fu, what method do you think the enemy used to dig and attack the city this time?"

"This... For the time being, it's hard to say!" Fu Yan shook his head and said: "The hills are boiled and tamped with glutinous rice juice. This kind of solid, thick and tall city, if you want to dig a gap in the city wall, it will take tens of thousands of dollars. It is impossible for people to work at the same time, of course Gao Jingzong has no shortage of such manpower at this time, but he is definitely not worthy of tens of thousands of shovels."

In this era, iron was extremely precious, and the iron of tens of thousands of shovels was enough to arm [-] to [-] infantry.If Gao Jingzong had the iron and steel resources to arm [-] soldiers, he would never equip them with shovels. Even if [-] lives were lost, this mound would change hands!

In fact, Gao Jingzong's idea is very simple, that is, dig a big hole at the root of the city wall, put gunpowder in it, and then detonate it.Of course, this tactic definitely didn’t exist in this time and space. In the original time and space, it was only invented when the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom army attacked Nanjing.If Fu Yan can see through this strategy, it will be a real strange thing.

Fu Yan prepared a countermeasure for the Beifu army to dig into the city. He had people arrange hundreds of large tanks in his city, and then ordered people to monitor the progress of the Beifu army's excavation day and night.If the Beifu army was going to dig into the city, he would have people prepare kerosene and dry firewood at the entrance of the cave. If he wanted to dig the foundation of the city wall, he would prepare to launch a counterattack early the next morning to destroy the speed of the Beifu army's digging.Looking forward to the arrival of reinforcements.

Gao Jingzong didn't pay too much attention to Yan's response.He issued the right to appoint military personnel in the entire army, separated from chief officials at all levels, and formed an effective supervision system.Afterwards, Gao Jingzong lay down on the sand table and observed the map.

From time to time, Beifu army scouts came in and out, reporting detailed information on the battlefield.

"Report to the governor, it has now been found out that the Yan army is in Linqiu City and is actively preparing for battle. It seems that they plan to defend Linqiu City to the death!"

"Reporting to the governor, according to the news we intercepted from Yan Guo's envoy, Yan Guo's reinforcements to Luoyang were mainly led by the Taishi and the leading general Mu Yugen, who led [-] forbidden troops, and the rebellious general Shi Cheng was auxiliary. More than [-] people."

"Captain,
Gao Jingzong was not surprised. No matter how much the Yan State court didn't value him, after Murong De's defeat, he probably regarded himself as an important opponent at this time.Gao Jingzong looked at the sand table and asked Tian Luo: "How far is the Yan State's reinforcements, and how many troops are there?"

Tian Luo said: "It will take at most five to six days for the Yan army to reach here, but according to the information, no matter the Yan army's reinforcements, the commander-in-chief Mu Yugen is very good at planning, especially good at using schemes. "

"In the face of absolute strength, any strategy is futile!" Gao Jingzong said: "Gunpowder gave the Han people a chance. A chance to defeat barbarism with civilization."

"This gunpowder, is it really so magical?" Tian Luo had never seen the power of gunpowder, so he naturally didn't think of gunpowder, Gao Jingzong's magic weapon at the bottom of the box, but was a little suspicious.

Gao Jingzong clapped his hands on the case: "In fact, it will prove that what the governor said is true, and please wait and see!"

In November and April, at the right time, with the sound of rumbling war drums, the Beifu Army began to form formations outside Linqiu City.The Beifu army is dominated by spearmen and spearmen, followed by crossbowmen and sword and shield soldiers.With the brigade as the combat unit, the combat sequence is carried out in sequence according to the brigade, regiment, Zhechong Mansion, and Zhonglang General Mansion.

The Beifu Army is a strange and enviable army. First of all, this army has a uniform uniform.Although Gao Jingzong no longer had a uniform standard military uniform in his hands, when he was in Sui County, he took a local method and made the uniforms of all the soldiers in the army black.

Gao Jingzong seems to have a paranoid preference for uniform uniforms. All the soldiers in the army count as one, and all wear black tight-fitting military uniforms.Because of Gao Jingzong's hobby, Chen Sima had an unusual headache. A total of 30 troops almost snapped up all the black cloth in the Eastern Jin Dynasty market, and even the price of black dye increased by [-]%.

The second is Gao Jingzong's raising soldiers, which is not a sheep-herding management at all. Every day, all soldiers are open-minded and can supply food.This is a very rare phenomenon among the separatist forces and the armies of the northern and southern courts.

As the Beifu troops arrived one by one, Fu Yan, who was standing on the city wall, breathed a sigh of relief.Because he stood high on the city wall and saw far away, he didn't find the siege equipment such as the cloud ladder, flying ladder, nest cart, rush cart, trebuchet, bed crossbow and other siege equipment in the Beifu army.

Seeing this scene, Fu Yan said with a smile: "Gao Jingzong's kid is really ridiculous. He thought he could scare the shit out of this general with an army of tens of thousands? You underestimate the heroes of the world."

Fu Yan cupped his hands and bowed in the direction of Ye City, and then said: "Although Yan is not talented, he knows that a good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good minister chooses a master to serve. Yan Shi Dayan and the salary of the two emperors, how can they do things that are not as good as beasts?" .”

Gao Jingzong asked coldly: "Are you all ready?"

Wei Dafu said: "Three thousand catties of gunpowder have been deployed."

"Very good, very good!" Gao Jingzong said, "How much time is left before the ultimatum?"

Tian Luo looked at the hourglass next to him and said, "There is still half a stick of incense time!"

"Alas!" Gao Jingzong said: "There are some people who don't shed tears when they see the coffin. They pass on the orders of the governor, but they don't have the orders of the governor. If they are not of my race, they will be killed if they don't surrender!"

"The governor has an order, if you are not of my race, you will be killed if you don't surrender!"

"The governor has an order, if you are not of my race, you will be killed if you don't surrender!"

"The governor has an order, if you are not of my race, you will be killed if you don't surrender!"

……

Tens of thousands of Beifu army soldiers roared in unison, and the sky changed color.

At this moment, a soldier under the city wall of the southern city listened attentively to the orders from outside.At this moment, the sound of a thick drum fell heavily, and the soldier hurriedly ignited the fire rope, and there was a clear "hissing" sound, like a poisonous snake swallowing a snake letter.

The soldier of the Beifu army who was ordered to light the fire hurriedly climbed up the cave with his hands and feet. In about a dozen breaths of time, a strong vibration came from the ground, and the loud roar was so strong And swiftly, with a distance of a hundred steps, the sound waves swept past, and almost everyone's ear drums emitted a terrifying hum at the same time. The next moment, everything between the heaven and the earth changed, and there was no longer any sound in the world. , as silent as a ghost.

　I'm very tired, I'll go to bed first, and I'll make up for it tomorrow.
