Chapter 484 Take warm water and boil the frog

This city of Anshi is indeed dangerous. It is located on the top of thousands of mountains, condescending, and guards the intersection of several main roads in the east, west, north, south, and north. More than 6 people have been trained for hundreds of years. Bite it down and want to conquer it in a short time, it's really a man plus a man.

However, Tang Taizong's battle was also caused by Emperor Sui Yang's defeat. He was too conservative in strategy. Although Anshi was the best way to Pyongyang, Goguryeo, across the Yalu River, it was not the only way. Datang had water With [-] troops, go directly to Pyongyang, the capital of Goguryeo, or go more steadily to the sea and land and enter the Black Bone City, which is the later Dandong. Both strategies can be used, but Emperor Taizong of Tang did not adopt them.

This time Wang Hou is not fighting to the east of Lelang County, he is going to the northwest of the Liaodong Plain. You have to keep fighting, otherwise you will avoid the strong city, and the Liaodong families will have a little psychological advantage over him, Qingzhou Wanghou, and look down on him. When the time comes to take over Liaodong, these local tyrants will have to negotiate conditions!

So after Liu Yi was sent away, Wang Hou directly transferred his direct line of troops, the Island City Brigade.

Compared with Liu Yi's Shangmang, the Island City Brigade laid out the attack more calmly. In the past two days, Wang Hou hastened to recruit civilians to cut down trees. After carrying it out, in the astonished eyes of the Yanliao defenders on the top of the city, a row was first placed at the foot of the mountain 100 meters away from the city wall, and then the soldiers advanced against the wooden fence, approached 80 meters, and then plunged into the snowdrift. Put it in a row, and then advance layer by layer.

One afternoon, under the eyes of the defenders, relying on the tortoise marching method, the island city brigade forced the fence outpost to a distance less than 20 meters below the Anshi city.

swoosh~
On the sloping hillside, the fence was inserted into the snowdrift at an angle of nearly 45 degrees. Through the hole cut out in the wood, Jiang Yiqu, who ran to the front line himself, shot another crossbow. The arrow pierced the neck of a staring defender, and with a splash, the defender fell heavily to the top of the wall like a sack.

At this moment, the defenders on Anshi City exploded, and one by one shouted and stretched out their bows and arrows. The arrows rained down like a rain, but most of them shot on the wooden fence with crackling crackles, giving the fence a hard time. As if a layer of reeds had been planted, there was nothing wrong with the island city traveler hiding under the fence.

"Sharpening a knife is not the same as chopping firewood!"

Cheerfully stretching his waist towards the battlefield, Wang Hou tilted his head at Zhuge Ying comfortably.

"go for meal!"

…………

Climbing and attacking the city like ants for three days in a row. After changing the commander, he shot an arrow, but it immediately made Yan Liao at the top of the city feel uncomfortable. In the middle of the night, he took advantage of the darkness and went up and down the wall One by one, the big soil baskets were hoisted down, and the two defenders carried oil jars, willow catkins and other firelighters, and quietly rushed towards the fence erected under the city wall.

But if you want to do bad things, you have thought of going together, carrying oil jars, these death squads from Yanliao have just gone down to the city and haven't walked far, seeing behind those fences, there are actually some dark ones popping up, I don't know how many The black shadow swayed and ran towards the top of the city.

The three souls were so frightened that two souls ran away, and the death squad also turned around and ran away. After a while, the whole city wall was tinkling and clanging, and the gongs sounded, and the torches lit up the mountain city red. The hunters held their bows and arrows as if they were shooting down anxiously. The crackling rain of arrows hit the black shadows with puffing sound, and layers of black shadows fell directly to the ground. Some people seemed to run away, and some The other one rushed forward bravely, roaring and shouting, shaking the entire dark night sky.

Layers of "Qingzhou Army" were shot down to the ground!
The attack lasted for nearly an hour, but this night, the defenders at the top of the city did not dare to sleep, but when the next day dawned, no matter whether it was the big households in Anshi City or the soldiers on the city wall, He couldn't help but get angry and widen his eyes.

What a dense crowd, all rags!The rags were full of arrows, as were the wooden fences. When they got up early in the morning, carrying a big shield, the Qingzhou Army pulled them down one by one comfortably, and collected a big basket in a short while. .

Arrows these days are much more precious than bullets in later generations. In World War II, an average of 330 rounds of bullets killed one person, but the Mongols who fought the world with bows and arrows only carried 75 arrows at most. During the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, they were prepared to deal with the rebellion of princes and kings Liang Guo shot out his arrows in the middle of the fight, and finally had to hang up and shoot back after being sucked in. This night, Anshicheng shot tens of thousands of arrows in vain, and they couldn't help but feel pained.

Then during the daytime war, Wang Hou picked him up again, Wang Xiao, and the scene of Wang Miser was so vivid that he deceived so many arrows, and he did not organize a large-scale attack again. A number of light infantry archers, holding crossbows and sneaking glances at you, saw that the defenders showed their heads, and then shot an arrow, and if they saw no rabbits, they would not shoot eagles.

With such a wretched dismissal, he didn't kill or injure a few people in a day, but it just happened to be like a mosquito swaying around, which was uncomfortable!I can't die if I bite you, but when I think about being sucked blood to get a big bump, being stabbed and scratched for several days, and I feel uncomfortable all over and can't sleep, my teeth itch when I'm angry.

Then in the middle of the night, when the defenders on the top of the city were weakened, suddenly there were dark figures rushing towards the top of the city. There is no strong light these days to collect the flashlight, and the torch can only shine a few meters away , As a last resort, the bow and arrow team composed of those hunters drew their bows and arrows again, and shot them out with a swish, but as always, there was still a hollow sound of shooting on the cloth strips, without the refreshing feeling of shooting through the human body. In half an hour, Anshicheng withdrew his troops.

Changing from Liu Yi's impatient temper before, Wang Hou turned into a slow doctor. During the day, the mosquitoes would bother you, and at night, he would shake a black cloth strip to play tricks. After several days of tossing, the Anshi City defenders were all nervous. up.

It was another big night, once again, the wind was blowing, and in the night, swaying black shadows swayed out like a group of demons dancing wildly, but looking at the dark place below, the Anshi defenders who were in charge of sentry were very big. He yawned loudly, and drooped his head in bewilderment again. The entire city wall was also dark and silent.

Bang~ An arrow was shot out with a very low sound, and it was nailed to the wooden watchtower in Anshicheng. Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen people, like Zhizhuxia, pulled the rope on the back of the arrow, dexterously Climbing down the low city wall.

The sentinel was so sleepy that he didn't even draw his knife. The elite assassins of the Military Statistics and Investigation Bureau who went up directly broke his head and twisted his neck. The two dragged the body into the dark watchtower, leaving one behind. Standing there pretentiously.

After more than [-] people boarded, an assault team tiptoed towards the south gate of Anshi City again!
