Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 2 Chapter 379: Qin Jun cavalry and Cheng Zhi

Shouchun, Chengtou.

Liu Yu was wearing a leather armor and stood at the head of the city. He didn't wear a helmet or a bun. He only wore a hair band. The wind blew his wild and disorderly hair. undoubtedly.

Murong Nan held his arm and stood beside him, with a tick in the corner of his mouth: "Liu Yu, when did you learn the suit of our Hu people? Do you feel so free?"

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Don't use the question to play, the armor is already uncomfortable when you are on the body, of course, how to get along, but you are good with this method. Use a hair band to restrain your hair, you don't have to worry about your hair being scattered . "

Murong Nan smiled smugly: "It's nothing difficult to think about. If you don't wear a helmet, it's the same? Forget it, not to mention this. Yesterday, the army of Qin army came, and now it is stationed outside the city. What do you think? "

Liu Yu looked up outside the city in the distance. Twenty miles away, it was already a piece of the company. The black soldiers of the Qin army ran back and forth like ants, and on many hills outside the city, there were trees. The ground fell, and countless large carts were transporting these trees to the camp. Without looking at it, I knew that the siege equipment made of these trees might be used in siege battles in the past two days.

Liu Yu hooked the corner of his mouth and said in a straight voice: "This Qin army seems to have forty or fifty thousand people. Although it is a mixture of step riding and stepping, the layout of the camp is very good. The main camp can't see it. In the neighboring camp, there are tight links, deep trenches and high barriers, which can not only respond to each other but also stand alone. It seems that it is no less than the big camp of our Beifu Army. "

Murong Nan smiled slightly, reaching for the camp opposite: "See? Except for the military flag of Qin Jun, what is the flying flag?"

Liu Yu's heart moved, looking far away, and saw more than a dozen flags embroidered with the word "liang", fluttering in the wind behind the camp, he murmured: "Commander Qin's surname is Liang? Is that the way? Jingzhou Tingshi Liangcheng? "

Murong Nan nodded his head and said sincerely: "I came to you just for this matter. I just received a letter from the protagonist's flying eagle. Liang Cheng had led his army to leave Xiangyang ten days ago and joined the Lianghuai battlefield. In time, it is almost time to arrive, but ... "

Speaking of which, Murong Nan frowned slightly: "It looks like he was just the first cavalry arrived, and the infantry of the brigade is still behind."

Liu Yu said softly, "Why do you see it? I think most of them are walking infantry. You see, how can those who are logging be cavalry?"

Murong Nan shook his head: "No, they are not infantry. You see, Liu Yu, their legs are all splayed, and they all wobble when they walk on the road. Only people who are on horseback all the time. "

Liu Yu's heart moved and looked at the Qin army camp. Sure enough, as Murongnan said, these Qin troops, despite pushing the cart and carrying the wood, seemed to be floating under the floor, with eight legs in their legs and walking posture It's all weird. Liu Yu nodded: "If the cavalry arrived first and then dismounted as an infantry, then it is understandable why Liang Chengneng came so fast, and Shou Chun did not fall behind. They came from the north and they should detour Huaibei. Can only be reached in about fifteen days. "

Murong Nan nodded: "So Liang Cheng first came by cavalry, it is to grab a time, Liu Yu, now they come first, and they have two or three days to prepare siege equipment, if you want to withdraw, now You still have time."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "Why do you want to withdraw? Murong brothers, I have said many times. We must stick to Shouchun and take time for this great war. They only came with cavalry, lack of infantry, and lack of siege ability. Our chance. If you leave the city to retreat at this time, it will be difficult to evacuate. "

Murong Nan gritted his teeth: "I have two hundred cavalry here. We can go back to Guangling on horseback. As for Xu Yuanxi, just ask for more blessings. You can take off your military uniforms and pretend to be civilians. Discipline is not enough to kill civilians. "

Liu Yu's smile gradually dissipated, Shen said: "Brother Murong, I don't like to listen to your words. As a soldier, when I meet the enemy, I dare not fight, even if there is a strong city, I just want to escape. That is a shame! "

Murong Nan shook his head: "You have to retreat when you want to retreat, Liu Yu, I said, we have weak meat and strong food on the grassland, no one can be strong forever, and we can't fight heroes when we bow our heads. The cavalry corps goes first, that is, to grab Shouchun. They will attack the city at all costs. It is really difficult for us to rely on these troops alone. "

Liu Yu shook his head, and his eyes flashed coldly: "They only have cavalry and lack siege equipment. Shouchun City has been rushing to repair the city's fortifications for several days, and the civilians in the city have also been ordered to defend the city and die in turn. They are all locals, and Baocheng is the Baojia. I believe that even if there are more Qin troops, we can keep it. "

Murong Nan said coldly: "A lone city, with no reinforcements outside and a lack of troops inside, cannot be defended. Liu Yu, you said that Hu Bin's reinforcements had already started five days ago, but why haven't they arrived yet? Only I'm afraid someone will black you. "

Liu Yu shook his head: "General Hu is now stationed at Kipstone, but within a hundred miles of it, he can respond at any time. Why do you think so?"

Murong Nan sighed: "Because of the current situation, it is too much like the battle of Xiangyang. Huan Chong is also leading the army to rescue, but a hundred miles away from the city, seeing the Qin army is powerful, dare not attack, and watched Xiangyang fall. I The protagonist has experienced this battle, so I am really worried that history will repeat itself ~ www.ltnovel.com ~ Liu Yu smiled and said, "Do you really believe that Xuanshuai will leave us behind?" "

Murong Nan's expression became very dignified, staring closely at Liu Yu, saying one by one: "Liu Yu, are you really so sure that Hu Bin was sent by Xuan Shuai?"

Liu Yu froze for a moment, wondering: "General Hu was ordered by Xuanshuai and led his army to come to the rescue. Isn't this a personal report you received?"

Murong Nan said with a sneer: "Xuan Shuai ordered him to attack, but Hu Bin's command was not the sequence of the Beifu army, but the horse of the guards in the capital, under the leadership of Mao Mu. Will he help the Shouchun with all his strength? Not confident. "

Liu Yu shook his head: "The Beifu Army now needs to fight for the time to raise grain and grass. We need to stand here for about a month. Hu Bin must also be well aware of this. If Shou Chun is lost, his troops may also be eaten. It ’s not difficult to understand the principle of helping others is to help yourself. "

Murong Nan gritted his teeth: "Even with Hu Binken's support, do these sergeants in the city live with the civilian husband? They are not the warriors of your tiger army, Liu Yu, can't you see the fear in their eyes?"
