Chapter 461 (1/2)
Outside Runan city in the north of Yangzhou
The army besieged the city on all sides, bleeding into rivers and sculls. Hundreds of thousands of recruits and veterans of the tiger eating army forcibly attacked the city. All the soldiers in the city defense fought with blood. The siege lasted two days and two nights!
The garrison of Runan city is 100000 strong with plenty of food and grass. Wen Meng, a general of the imperial court who escaped from Yecheng, dispatched the army to defend. The whole Runan city is as solid as gold.
Mu Qing and Gong sunxue descend from the sky in the barracks of the tiger eating army, and walk into the big tent of the Chinese Army during the visits of the soldiers. The whole period in the barracks was not so high, which can be seen at a glance.
”What's the situation now?” MuQing strides into the camp and asks Guan Mingcheng.
Demoralization in the army is a big deal. Morale is extremely important if you want to speed up your troops, fight and attack.
Guan Mingcheng sighed helplessly, took out the statistics of casualties every half day and sent them to MuQing.
”Young master, Runan city has opened a special defensive array. The whole Runan city is shrouded in a special array. All those who are close to Runan city can't show their true Qi. It's the same with the enemy in the city. They can't show their true Qi. It seems that... It seems that it has formed a field. Now it can only be a big army attacking Runan city. ”
Mu Qing sat on the handsome seat, lost in thought.
If Runan city has opened a defensive array, then the strong martial arts can't be the elite of siege. Just use ordinary soldiers to attack Runan City, the loss is too big!
As soon as I came from Yanzhou, the tiger army was in big trouble again. It's really annoying.
Although Gongsun Xue also felt pity for this, bimuqing was easier to adapt. In Bingzhou, I have experienced many wars against the demons, and I am used to it. Since ancient times, it has been inevitable for the army to attack the city by force. Runan city used to be a royal palace thousands of years ago. It's normal to have domain array to guard the city. If you want to overthrow the Tang Dynasty, return peace to all people, and avenge your father, you can't avoid fighting.
There are bound to be casualties in war. We can't always take the strong as the point in every war. Runan city is the bridgehead Fortress into Yangzhou. There will be many such wars in the future.
”So, is there an enemy in the martial arts realm in Runan city?” MuQing unfolds the map of Runan city and asks.
Guan Mingcheng shakes his head, takes out the picture of the tiger army's siege and barracks layout, and gives it to the young master.
Mu Qing carefully reviewed, nodded with satisfaction, whether it is siege or barracks defense, the plan is very perfect. Only this forced siege, casualties are not small.
”Newspaper! General... Ah, report to the commander that the east gate of Runan city has been initially broken through, but there are many traps in the east city, so our army can't rush into the city. ”
The front-line scouts sent letters to report the situation of Runan city. Hesitated just to see the little Lord back, scouts subconsciously want to report the war to Guan Mingcheng.
Mu Qing nodded, Runan city is not easy to conquer, can understand. This city can only be completely won if it breaks into the city and breaks the array.
”Well, the east gate only needs to be occupied. Divide forces to attack other gates, and strive to win the outer city of Runan city in the shortest time. What's more, who is the commander-in-chief in Runan? ”
Get up again, MuQing saw the mother and Guan Linglong into the barracks, dare not sit down.
Guan Mingcheng suddenly showed a slightly ironic smile and said, ”Hui Shaozhu, the commander of Runan City, is just a man who is greedy for pleasure. I'm afraid he is still warm and fragrant. He thinks his Runan city is indestructible! His name is Li Maolong. He is Li Qian's nephew. When the capital of the Tang Dynasty was established, he intended to take Runan city as the imperial capital. Later, after the capital was established in Chang'an, Li Qian conferred Li Maolong the title of leader of Runan city. ”
”But later, Li Qian was not at ease with Li Meilong, so he let him live in the palace of Chang'an city. He said that his name was the capital of the emperor, leading Runan from afar. When our army started, Li Zhang sent Li Maolong back to Runan city. Young master, the east gate has been conquered, and the south gate is fast. ” Gan Wenlie, bleeding all over, stood outside the camp and added.
MuQing waves for him to come in, but Gan Wenlie stops and thinks that he is covered with blood and should not enter the big account of the Chinese army at the time of discussion.
After all, this is the rule of the tiger eating army. MuQing didn't say any more and let Gan Wenlie stand outside.
”General Gan fought hard in the front line. When Runan city was conquered, he should be rewarded for his merits.” Mu Qing smiles and says without stint.
Gan Wenlie smiles. In fact, he doesn't like the reward very much. He takes it as his duty to attack the city and pull out the stronghold.
Li Jin also laughs and shakes his head. He has heard of Li Meilong, who is really a hedonist.
”You all step back, Xueer and Linglong stay.” Li Jin slightly squinted and said.
Guan Mingcheng and other generals did not dare to neglect him. They looked at the young master and asked him. After getting permission, they quietly withdrew from the Chinese army.
Seeing all the irrelevant people leave, Li Jin walks up to his son and gently presses his shoulder.
”Don't be impulsive when it comes to Runan city. It's easy to defend but hard to attack. Don't be in a hurry for a while. Moreover, the master of Runan city is not as simple as you think. Li's master is a master of Sanpin realm. The reason why Li Zhang was so relieved of Yangzhou was because of Li's master. And now the army's forced siege is bound to cause serious casualties. The only way to solve this problem is to let the powerful military division enter the city and destroy the eyes of the array. ”
”It's a conspiracy. It's an obvious trap.” Gongsun Xue couldn't help but suddenly opened her mouth and said with a smile.
Just finished, Gongsun Xue blushed and lowered her head in embarrassment.
