It's all abstract destiny, you're one emperor through the ages

Chapter 199 What does it mean to take a break?
Qi Yanqiu is a general with great learning ability.

He followed Qiyan Jinhan to fight the bald department, and he learned [-]% to [-]% of Qiyan Jinhan's military methods.

He was beaten up by Yue Shaoqian, but he also learned a little bit of Yue Shaoqian's ability to defend the city.

Therefore, begging for beauty and begging for defending the city can be regarded as quite experienced.

Moreover, the soldiers under his command are not a single county soldier, but also a large number of elites who have come down from the Yongliang battlefield.

In addition, Hu people are naturally brave and good at fighting, so they are not easy to deal with.

Under the command of Qi Yanqiu, this group of old soldiers gradually stabilized their defense and guarded the city in an orderly manner.

Although Leshun climbed the city wall occasionally, the siege was not that easy after all.

It is not possible to capture the city in a day or two.

Of course Liu Ke was not in a hurry.

Fake sickness and paddle with Yue Shaoqian, and train other generals by the way.

Anyway, it doesn't matter how good your begging ability is, or how your soldiers are.

The disadvantage is always here.

As long as Shi Zhouhecong does not support him, he will be able to win the city sooner or later.

After five days.

One of them ran to Qi Yanqiu with his clothes covered in blood, and said:
"General, it's not good, the Han army at the south gate has launched a general attack on the city, and it's almost impossible to hold on there!"

"This Liu Zhier!"

Qi Yanqiu slapped the top of the city with a slap, the skin was almost worn out.

Although Liu Ke didn't even come to the city in person this time, it didn't prevent Qi Yan from asking him to vent.

If the emperor hadn't personally conscripted with illness, where would the morale of these Han soldiers be like a rainbow?

Mentioning this illness, Qi Yan begs his teeth itching with hatred.

Sickness is sickness, no sickness means no sickness, rest for a while, what does it mean?
Your condition is still intermittent, right?

But I have to say, I was really taken aback by begging Yan.

Let's say that Liu Pheasant is really sick. He has been sick for a long time and never died.

Let's say it's a fake illness, but I didn't make it myself.

It's not begging for beauty and exaggeration.

Judging from the achievements of Emperor Han over the years, as long as he takes the chessboard first, Wuling County is estimated to be broken in a few days.

Maybe you can drive the donkey cart to the top of the city.

Begging for a while, thinking about it, I have no idea, so I have to put it down for the time being and deal with the matter in front of me.

If in the hands of several generals of the Han army, they can't defend the city, don't even think about Liu Zhi'er.

"The soldiers and horses on the top of the city cannot be withdrawn, let the aristocratic families in the city show some sincerity, and they must stand up to me!"

"Yes!"

"what!"

There were screams from Qi Yanqiu's side.

It turned out that the bed crossbow on the earth hill outside the city played an extremely domineering role.

The bed crossbow first appeared in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. It was launched by a winch and had a long range, but its accuracy was not good. Generally, large-scale salvo tactics were adopted.

It was not until Dahan that it began to be popularized on a large scale.

The current bed crossbow in the Han army is a new type of bed crossbow manufactured by Geng Sanji through the boat crossbow catching kuns and accumulating data and experience.

Although there is no epoch-making development, the lethality is still extremely terrifying.

Moreover, the uneven rhythm made the battlefield even more chaotic.

Some Donghu soldiers who were not used to the sound were extremely unaccustomed and flustered.

The only disadvantage may be that the consumption is relatively large.

The wear and tear of the bed crossbow and the consumption of special crossbow arrows are all money.

Fortunately, there have always been family merchant ships who came back from Luzon and brought batch after batch of good things.

"How to fight!"

If the shot was a stream arrow, Qi Yanqiu could use his martial arts skills to chop it flying with a single blow.

But if it's a crossbow arrow.
It is not certain who is flying.

Qi Yanqiu wanted to avoid the crossbow arrows, but the soldiers of the Han army who were controlling the strings were not stupid, they all stared at him.

But begging for beauty is not easy to hide in the city.

As a result, it was a bit embarrassing.

"what!"

The accuracy of the bed crossbow is not enough, but it can't stand the real arrogance of the Han army now.

A thick arrow was shot at Qi Yanchou, even if there were personal guards holding up their shields to resist, Qi Yanchou was under tremendous force, staggered and fell to the ground.

"It's not good, the general has been hit by an arrow!"

"General, General!"

The surrounding soldiers all turned pale with fright when they saw Qi Yanqiu fall to the ground.

Liu Ke originally just came out for a walk, yawned to let the wind go, and told the soldiers by the way that the emperor was just sick, not dead.

Unexpectedly, I happened to see the scene of Qi Yan begging to fall to the ground.

Although he has other plans, it is not bad to just win Wuling County.

He immediately changed his tone, speaking with a pure Donghu accent of Shi Zhouhebu, and said loudly:

"Begging for beauty is begging for death, begging for beauty is begging for death!"

The soldiers manipulating the bed crossbow on the dirt hill cheered excitedly.

Several generals tried their best to attack the city, but they failed to climb the city wall.

But they can shoot the enemy general with a bed crossbow.

It's up to them!
However, the excited atmosphere was quickly broken by a soldier's suspicious voice.

All the soldiers looked over one after another.

I saw that Qi Yanqiu stood up again and did not fall down.

"What are you doing, it's just a bed crossbow!"

"This general was killed from the mountain of blood and corpses of the Qiyan tribe. Not to mention the bed crossbow, even Liu Zhier's chessboard may not be able to hurt it!"

"What's the fuss about!"

Qi Yanqiu got up from the ground, patted the dust off his body, and shouted at the soldiers:
"Still not going to line up?!"

A group of soldiers, seeing begging Yan begging for nothing.

They silently restrained their noisy emotions, regrouped their fighting spirit, and returned to their respective positions one after another.

"General, how are you?"

A member came to Qi Yanqiu's side and couldn't help asking.

".fine."

Qi Yanqiu was silent for a while, looking at the powerless right arm.

He missed the arrow, and the crossbow arrow did not penetrate the large shield.

But the arm is broken.

He whispered to the lieutenant general:
"Don't spread it, I will rest for two days first."

"You and the generals in the army are in charge of supervising the soldiers guarding the city. When the general recovers from his injuries, he will go to the top of the city."

"General."

Qi Yanqiu waved her intact left arm:
"Ben will naturally not just lie on the couch like that."

"There are not many soldiers in the city, and I will leave on the grounds of recruiting young men to defend the city."

The deputy general looked at Qi Yanqiu's right arm, which could not be lifted at all, sighed, and said:
"That's the only way..."

"Report!!!"

Begging Yan and begging for words, before he got down the city wall, a soldier ran in and reported:

"General, that Le Shun climbed first again, and Hou Junyan also sent two thousand more troops to attack. The brothers are about to be overwhelmed!"

"Damn it!"

Begging to hear the words, he almost raised his right arm, almost creating a medical miracle.

Time flies, and another eight days have passed.

Blood flowed like a river under the city of Wuling County.

In the past eight days, the Han army attacked the city during the day, and at night they used catapults, bed crossbows, charging carts, and all kinds of fancy siege equipment to attack the fortifications of Wuling County City.

More than 3000 soldiers have been lost in the city of Wuling County.

As the attacking party, the Han army also suffered nearly 5000 casualties.

The head of the city of Wuling County was bombarded by catapults and was dilapidated, and several large holes appeared in the wall.

This made Qi Yanqiu feel like the Han army was using them for leveling.

During the day, I was training those recruits.

At night, it is to train the soldiers to skillfully use the siege equipment.

As for pensions and equipment loss?
I heard that Luzon sent another batch of loans.

Begging Yanqiu really can't figure it out.

The big man is obviously borrowing money, so why is he collecting the annual tribute from the younger brother like an old man?
And now Qi Yanqiu's fracture is more serious.

He didn't have time to go down to the top of the city to rest, so he could only defend the city regardless of his injuries, relying almost entirely on perseverance.

But the perseverance of begging for face is really good.

I firmly believe that Shi Zhouhecong will not give up Wuling County in vain, and will definitely come to help.

Because the Han army was not without casualties.

Judging from the casualty ratio of this siege, as long as there is no field battle, the Han army is not so difficult to stop.

A total of only [-] to [-] Han troops, even if they continue to replenish troops later, or mobilize county soldiers from various places to make up the number, it is still not too much.

After repeated consumption, it may not be possible to capture Jingnan.

Qi Yanqiu glanced at the Han army that was still attacking fiercely, then at the direction of Changsha County, and murmured:

"Siege is not something that you can conquer if you can fight."
-
"How's the situation in Wuling County?"

Shi Zhou Hecong sat on the main seat, and a spy from Wuling County stood below him.

The spy cupped his hands and said:

"General, the Han army is now storming Wuling County. Although the Emperor Han did not go to battle in person, many strong generals of the Han army are leading the army and attacking from the four gates together."

"Not only the earth hills were built, but also various siege equipment."

"The defenders have no chance to breathe. If it continues like this, I'm afraid that Wuling County will not be able to keep it!"

Meng Feng got up and said:
"The Han army only dispatched Ma Kuo and Li Jingji to lead the attack on Guiyang and Lingling counties."

"The army of Wuling County is gathered, and there are many generals. Liu Zhi'er and Yue Shaoqian are still on the front line of Wuling County even if they are sick."

"It shows that the main target of the Han army is Wuling County."

"Once Wuling County is lost, Changsha County will be in crisis, and Changsha County will be in danger, and Jingnan will be lost."

"The general should send troops quickly to rescue Wuling County!"

"No."

Shi Zhouhecong waved his hand, Liu Bin reminded him that he would not underestimate the enemy:
"That Liu Zhi'er is full of tricks, and now he is also sick. He probably has some kind of conspiracy. We must guard against it."

Meng Feng gritted his teeth. If the Han army had won before, it would have won, and if Jingnan had lost, he would have lost. He immediately surrendered and enjoyed the food.

But his wife and daughter are all in Shi Zhou Hecong's residence.

He is really passive.

"Could it be possible to just watch and let the Han army take Wuling County?"

"General Meng, don't worry."

Shi Zhou Hecong said with a smile:
"Of course I won't watch Wuling County fall."

"Wuling County has Qi Yan begging for garrison, and Lingling and Guiyang counties will also have soldiers and horses to support them."

"But since the Han army is mainly attacking Wuling County, these are not enough."

"So I decided to send [-] soldiers and horses to take over Wuling County."

"Although [-] soldiers and horses are not many, they are not many."

"Wuling County can be kept, and Changsha County's defense force will not be too weak."

Shi Zhou Hecong paused, and said:
"Meng Feng, you will lead [-] troops to support!"

"I?"

Meng Feng's face changed slightly when he heard the words, and he cupped his hands and said:

"General, there are many famous generals in the Han army."

"Since the general already knows that Liu Zhi'er must be plotting something, then the general is probably not the opponent."

"Also ask the general to send some more troops for me!"

Shi Zhou Hecong glanced at Meng Feng.

Do you want to increase troops?
What if you don't want your wife and daughter anymore, and you directly lead your troops to rebel?
Although these soldiers will not listen to your words and go to rebellion.

But Shi Zhouhecong didn't reveal too much, saying:
"You don't have to confront the Han army head-on, but pretend to be invincible."

"Give the Han army the illusion that they can break through Wuling County and endanger Changsha County."

"in addition."

Shi Zhou Hecong took a serious look at Meng Feng, and said:
"Since you are the internal response of the Han army, you should surrender to the big man now."

"what?"

Meng Feng let out a sudden cry.

After reacting, cold sweat broke out behind him.

This is to let him go to the Han army to serve as an internal response for Donghu!

Shi Zhou Hecong raised his eyelids:
"Why, don't you want to?"

Meng Feng grinned with all his might:
"How come, it is the honor of the last general to serve the general."

Shi Zhouhecong shook his head and smiled easily:

"No, it is your honor to serve the big man."

Soon, Meng Feng arrived in Wuling County with [-] soldiers and horses supporting him.

Begging is very prudent. Although the two had communicated, they were not in a hurry to find an opportunity to let Meng Feng lead his troops into the city.

Instead, let [-] soldiers and horses set up camp outside the city of Wuling County.

Anyway, the Han army is only [-] soldiers and horses. Unless the Han army that attacked Lingling and Guiyang counties returns to join forces, the Donghu people will have an absolute advantage in Wuling County.

It's more than enough to just defend the city.

Because the enemy army came to support, the Han army today only has the troops of Leilan and Barnihan, and they are still conducting a tentative siege.

Di Han, Hou Junyan and Le Shun withdrew to the camp.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, there was a Malay report:

"Your Majesty, Meng Feng has led an army of [-] to support."

"Shi Zhouhecong in Changsha County seems to be ready to move."

Liu Ke's face was pale, and his legs and feet were swinging.

He put down the grilled chicken in his hand, wiped the greasy on his mouth, frowned, and said:
"Cough cough—cough"

"Then our army is at a disadvantage in this Wuling County?"

The one-sided mask on Di Han's face looked extremely stern, and he said:

"Exactly, if you attack by force, the loss will not be too small. The general suggested that you should rely more on siege equipment, these are the ones."

When Hou Junyan heard the words, he interrupted Di Han directly, and said nonchalantly:

"It doesn't matter how much support he comes, if you come 20, you will swallow [-] for your majesty, if you come [-], you will swallow [-] for your majesty, if you come [-]."

"no!"

Liu Ke waved his hand and said:
"Why are you still eating people?"

Yue Shaoqian's acting skills are not good, and he rarely shows up, so it was Xue Jia who spoke next:

"Ahem——after all, the enemy army has come to support, and there are many soldiers and horses."

"I think what General Di said is that if we attack by force, our army must suffer heavy casualties."

"Even if we take down Wuling County, we won't be able to march into Changsha County."

"It's best to be able to contact the secret agents in the city."

"Careful work?"

Hou Junyan was stunned for a moment. If you want to work carefully, you still have to attack until now?

At this moment, a pawn came in and reported:

"Your Majesty, someone sent a letter!"

"Let him in!"

Liu Ke and Xue Jia looked at each other the same way, and both saw the strangeness in each other's eyes.

"The villain has seen His Majesty!"

After a while, a pawn who looked like an Eastern Hu soldier entered the tent.

"Who are you?"

"I am the personal guard of General Meng Feng!"
