Chapter 41: Giving and Not Giving

Seeing the bow and arrow shot out, it temporarily caused some damage to the Tubo people.

However, Sinuoluo had already prepared for a long time. He didn't know what ambush was in the city, but there must be ambush, so he did various defense work. Immediately, a soldier raised his shield to cover his comrades' dead corners entering the window of the house. But another bow and arrow shot over the window opposite.

This time, some plans were formulated in advance, while others were discussed by Xiao Song and Wang Junchuo in the later period.

Shan County is the arrangement of Shan County, and that cannot be copied, and Sinuoluo is much more cunning than Ke Zanre. However, Feng Changqing's bunker group cannot be copied. If there is no terrain, at least a flat ocean in the city will lose many advantages. Just like Li Wei easily broke the bunker tactic. This cannot be done in Dahua County. Because after entering the street fighting, it means that the city wall is lost. This is the highest strategic location.

As long as Tubo soldiers climbed to the top of the city and smashed them down with stones, they would smash any fort. They would first smash the surrounding bunkers, and then use the cover of the stones to seal the holes with bows and arrows, and then all the second and third rows of bunkers were destroyed.

So some of the current arrangements were made very early.

In the early stage, it was a house, but it was absolutely impossible to be like Mukeling bunkers, nor did it have its solidity. It was just a brick, spread flat, and then applied with cement mortar. After all, it was like a flat-topped house in later generations. Otherwise, it would be built like a bunker like a bunker, although the entire Dahua County town was not large, the project volume would not be acceptable.

Moreover, not every house is like this, but the main houses in the middle are cement brick wall flat-top structures. However, each house, except for the main street, is connected to each other. This is for the sake of authenticity below. Otherwise, the Tubo people could use a large number of soldiers to dig the street into deep trenches and cut the tunnels.

This problem is not big. Once the thousands of soldiers left in the city are cut off, they will have no way to retreat.

In this way, the houses are not as strong as the fortress, but the victory is due to the large number. Besides, they are not planning to defend for ten or eight years. After all, after the Lanzhou Battle, the troops will be released, and the counterattack will be launched. The time is not short, nor is it long, ten days is enough. Moreover, Guo Yuanzhen did not intend to leave Wang Hua for a long time.

The later stage is the arrangement of troops.

The two discussed that if Tianxuan's army was separated from the militia, the combat effectiveness of the Tianxuan's army would be exerted. But in this way, the militia would become a chicken's strait. This was not a chicken's strait. Wang Hua left more than 29,000 militias. Although the combat effectiveness was a little weaker, if they were really made a chicken's strait, it would not be very happy if the commander had been.

The result of the two of them was to disrupt the Tianxuan army and disperse them among the militias, allowing them to drive and guide the militias. And because of the growth of this battle, the Blood Camp will have many more regular soldiers who can be used to send the field. This is also very important. No matter how the battle ends, the Blood Camp will suffer a lot of casualties.

But in this way, the form of combat can only become defense, and cannot take the initiative.

After using up all the defensive weapons, Xiao Song, who personally directed the battle in Dahua County, immediately changed the combat mode and entered the second stage. He handed over the city and turned it into street fighting, and it was a very sinister street fighting, and then cooperated with tunnel fighting.

Seeing this situation, Sinuoluo also entered the city under the cover of the soldier's shield.

Some people are worried about it, mainly because they are not easy to deal with the situation in front of you. If there is a pack of explosives, put it in the corner of the wall and blow up the city walls, it is useless. If there is a small house, it is still accurate to blow up one or two. Or if there is a grenade and throw it into the window, any problem will be solved.

It must be important.

Sinuoluo was a little in a dilemma. Now it does not mean that the army was captured by Dahua County. Only when the army retreated and the Blood Camp closed the city gate, it still belonged to the Blood Camp. If all the blood camp soldiers in the city were killed, the losses would not be small. But if they were not killed, they would continue to look for the next target. As the army deepened and arrived at the city of Guzhou, these troops were nailed behind them. If the Blood Camp launched a counterattack and lost to the enemy, and with these troops staring at them, they might end up with Ke Zanre.

Of course, although he was slightly disappointed when he saw that there were not many supplies when he went into the city, he did not expect this batch of supplies very much.

The biggest strategic goal now is not materials, but to attract part of the main force of the Blood Camp to Heguao and the other prefectures at the lowest cost. It will provide assistance to Zong Chuke.

After thinking for a long time, I finally decided to use the most brutal method.

After smashing, smashing stones from the top of the city, the houses next to the city wall soon turned into ruins. But there were only a few rows of houses next to the city wall, and the houses in the middle of the city were still helpless. However, seeing the piles of stones inspired Sinuolu. The soldiers hid behind the stones, blocked the windows with bows and arrows, and then shield soldiers covered the soldiers and smashed the houses with hammers.

There were still casualties. There were shield soldiers outside, and there were shield soldiers inside. While defending, they shot the Tubo people on the opposite side with arrows, and at the same time extended a hook and sickle to hook the Tubo shield soldiers. However, due to the unfamiliarity, the militia inside the house also suffered minor casualties from time to time.

But if you don’t just be beaten, there will be casualties among the Tubo people, but the casualties can still be within the tolerance range of Sinuoluo.

After two days of hard work, the entire Dahua County town was almost turned into a pile of ruins, leaving only two small houses in the middle standing alone.

Sinuoluo sent people to shout, saying that he would surrender and not kill him.

Until now, there are only soldiers who died in the Blood Camp, and there are no soldiers who surrendered. If there are soldiers of the Blood Camp surrender, it will be very meaningful. But it is quiet inside.

Sinuoluo was also helpless and ordered his men to start resting. Many open spaces were freed in the city, and outside the range of bows and arrows in the city, Sinuoluo began to order soldiers to enter the city to station. But he ordered the soldiers to be vigilant. There was a tunnel in the city, which had long been discovered by Sinuoluo. However, no matter what the tunnel was, they could only destroy all the houses, and there was no use. As long as they appeared, there was no place to hide, and there was only one who was killed.

Sinuoluo would not foolishly get into the tunnel and start a fierce battle with the Blood Camp in the unfamiliar underground realm.

In fact, the command of Sinuoluo almost splashing water also made Xiao Song feel a little disappointed. Many of the moves that had been prepared were useless under Sinuoluo's stable command.

It was indeed a strong enemy, no wonder Wang Hua repeatedly reminded him to be careful of this person, and Xiao Song thought to himself.

It is necessary to enter the city to camp to prevent the Blood Battalion from closing the city gate overnight. However, the camp checked all the ground and sent people to take turns to be on duty. Faced with such a tight defense, Xiao Song was forced to stop any plans.

After resting for a night, Sinuoluo broke again, but this time the situation changed again, and the two houses were still quiet.

Where is the enemy?

After the house was smashed, no figure was found, which made Sinuoluo a little unwilling to accept it, so he found the tunnel entrance and attacked with fire and water, but there was no reaction inside.

Sinuoluo also thought of an authentic tunnel leading to the outside of the city, but outside the city he sent someone to search carefully. He asked the soldiers to check all suspicious places and patrol the area within a few miles, for fear that the Blood Camp would use the tunnel to escape. With such a lot of effort, it would be a bit worthless if he did not kill thousands of Blood Camp soldiers.

But now that the enemy is not found, Sinuoluo is a little confused and is not relieved. If he escapes, he will run away, for fear that they are still under the ground.

After hesitating for a while, in order to find out the truth, he dug a circle of deep trenches outside the city. It took him another day and finally found several tunnels leading out of the city. They dug them very deeply, and even outside the city, they were connected together. After using fire and water, they sent people to investigate. In the end, it took a long time to find the main tunnel, which leads to the outside, but not on land, but into a small river. The entrance of the channel is the river water, under the river, and then use the river water to escape to the other side. Can you think of it?

Sinuoluo cursed a few times and led his army to block these tunnels with his army, then went north and joined forces with his general A Fuzan.

Instead of siegeing the city immediately, he first dug a circle outside the city and found several tunnels again. Sinuoluo cursed her mother a few times, and then in anger, he directly attracted water from the moat and poured it in. Then he siege the city.

Although the two armies merged, Guangwei County also increased its strength because Xiao Song's troops joined.

After three days of hard attack, he suffered serious casualties and captured Guangwei County again.

After entering the city, it is exactly the same as Dahua County.

Sinuoluo jumped straight into a hurry, but had no choice but to use the method of Dahua County again. In the evening, he saw that there were not many houses left and the soldiers did not rest, so he continued to smash the house. The counterattack was terminated and the house fell down. He continued to use fire and attack with water. In Sinuoluo's thoughts, all the tunnels leading out of the city were blocked this time, and it was seen where you escape.

The result was still no response.

Xinuoluo's energy was so painful that he didn't believe in evil, and he burned and flooded again, but still had no reaction.

What was the problem? When he got outside the city, he intercepted the moat and drained the water. A very smart man immediately thought of the problem. The above tunnel is fake, and the real tunnel is still deeper below.

However, this time the Blood Camp suffered a lot. Because Sinuoluo led the moat water into it. Although there were some moisture-proof measures inside, the Bijian was below the ground and some water was poured in. Many places were all submerged, so he had to hold his breath and grop in the water and move forward.

Fortunately, after several days of fighting, the soldiers became resolute and retreated to Guzhou, but many soldiers drank a lot of water, and several soldiers were a little panicked because they didn't know the nature of the water. Fortunately, some comrades immediately helped him out and rescued him.

In fact, so far, Xiao Song has achieved his strategic goals ahead of schedule, and has won precious time at the lowest price. It is even better than expected.

Even Wang Junchuo was not useful. The goal of this battle was to delay time. In order to achieve this goal, Wang Hua sacrificed Dahua County, Guangwei County again, and even the Huangshui River in the west were ready to sacrifice. Then he used the tall walls of Guzhou and Hezhou to make the last step of delaying.

No matter what, these two states and cities cannot give in.

Not only these two states, but also Lanzhou, cannot give in.

But after this battle, Wang Hua was named the God of War, and Wang Hua himself felt guilty. The facts were also felt guilty. At least he did not dare to take the three thousand iron cavalry to run to Mochu's nest and rush around, invincible. However, when he selected soldiers under his current command, he could definitely pick out soldiers with stronger combat power than the three thousand led by Li Jing.

However, his use of space and time made all the generals feel worshipful.

Of course, worship cannot be copied. Which commander has so many wise and brave warriors to carry out his precise plans in the future?

The troops in Lanzhou City were not many, as Zong Chuke guessed. Only two thousand regular troops were drawn, and the other troops were sent to Pingdingchuan, so that Jiang Zhuo had to give a thunder blow to 50,000 troops.

In order to increase the defense strength of Lanzhou City, Wang Hua had to temporarily recruit five thousand people from the city to assist in defending the city.

If they don't expect them to attack, if they really want to attack, Wang Hua's use of elite soldiers and generals has become a habit, and it may not be used well inertial thinking. But it is enough to defend the city.

Lanzhou is a city with a long history and has undergone many changes. Not only is its name changing, but the ruins of the city also changing. It was named Jincheng at the beginning because gold was emitted when building the city. But the origin of the Jincheng statement is not because of this. It refers to its sturdiness, easy defense and difficult attack, and it is obtained based on the allusion of Jincheng Soup.

Later, the regime was easily lost, and the name city was also changing. But no matter how it changed, it was leaning against the Yellow River and Langao Mountain in the south. Therefore, its position as a fortress that is easy to defend and difficult to attack has not changed.

Wang Hua held the city with an absolute disadvantage in terms of number of people and even in terms of quality. However, he leaned against the tall and dangerous city walls and organized a counterattack. Moreover, Wang Hua was famous, and he personally directed it, which undoubtedly boosted morale.

Zong Chuke was attacking wildly, and he was defending wildly on the top of the city.

Although soldiers eventually climbed the city wall from time to time, they quickly let Wang Hua and hundreds of Tianshu soldiers who were flexible and mobile, quickly shot them to death.

The battle was going on fiercely, and the city wall was filled with rolling stones thrown from the top of the city, as well as various arrows, poured boiling oil, and more corpses. But there were still dense soldiers holding shields, pushing cloud ladders, or carrying wooden ladders, and forcing the city walls.

There were also many soldiers or people on the top of the city walls killed by powerful crossbows shot up from under the city walls. Now they could not even pull out the gap to lift the corpse down. The soldiers were busy fighting, and the blood on their bodies and the blood on the dead bodies made the city covered with a strong smell of blood.

The deaths of many people on the city's front have filled the relatives of the people in the city with a sad atmosphere. Finally, all the old, young, women and children have joined the war, and they have not participated in the war. They braved the crossbows shot from outside the city to help the soldiers transport various supplies to the city. Or assisted the soldiers to boil the vegetable oil and dump the outside of the city. Or they brought down their houses, moved the stones out, and moved them to the city.

The people's participation in the war once again shocked and inspired the fierceness of the soldiers on the city wall.

No matter what kind of attacks Zong Chuke launches, Lanzhou City will stand like a giant, forever standing.

The battle continued fiercely. The madness of Lanzhou City now gave Zong Chuke a headache, but he knew that this was his only opportunity. If the Blood Camp drew the army back after the war in Dingchuan ended, Lanzhou would never want to take it down. Moreover, after losing 50,000 troops, his strength was greatly damaged and his soldiers fell sharply, which might turn the war pattern in the opposite direction.

Seeing that he was repelled from his attack again, he rolled up his sleeves regardless of his image and came to the front of the formation and shouted: "Damn it, they are all a bunch of soft eggs."

This sentence hurts self-esteem. The soldiers have tried their best to fight until now. However, the defense on the top of the city is very crazy, and with the tall walls, they have no choice.

Some soldiers thought hatefully: Softy, let you take the shield and go up the ladder to try it! Ensure that you can pee your pants immediately.

Of course, this sentence is only held in my heart and dare not say it. Not only did I dare not say it, but I knew that siege was very dangerous, but I was still holding my head to continue siege. There may be a way out for siege. If you retreat, the 3,000 law enforcement team is not a good meal.

The General Manager Zong was crazy. He took a step back and the law enforcement team's bow and arrow shot the soldier.

The battle continued until the fourth update, and the defenders on the city gradually became sparse. More than half of the two thousand Tianshu Army fell, and more than half of the five thousand people who participated in the battle fell. Even the women, children, young and old who assisted in defending the city were injured or killed by bows and arrows. Wang Hua himself was also injured and cut a wound because he fought with six soldiers who attacked the city.

But the crisis in Lanzhou City was finally resolved.

The battle to pacify Dingchuan came to an end, and four fierce troops cut in staggered pieces and quickly defeated Jiang Zhu's 50,000 troops.

The rest is to expand the results of the battle, continue to pursue and confiscate prisoners.

The terrain of Pingding River was chosen by Wang Hua intentionally. Not far behind is the Yellow River. Although the surface of this section of the Yellow River is flat, there are dark whirlpools, which is a taboo for swimmers. The soldiers who burned the pontoon bridge were all good swimmers selected by Wang Hua from tens of thousands of people, otherwise he would not be assured to let them perform this mission.

Jiang Bui has 50,000 soldiers who can meet this requirement. There are hills on both sides, which are not very tall, but there are many places where there are dead ends, and there are not many soldiers who are familiar with the terrain of this area. There are also very few soldiers who can escape from the hills on both sides.

Either break through the siege towards Kuizi Mountain, Tuoba Tao and his men once again played a role. Seeing this situation, Ge Shuhan knew that they had suffered heavy losses and distributed 500 soldiers to the top of the mountain again, which blocked all the escape routes.

Seeing that the battle could not be broken through, the battle was even more deadly. Under the shouts of the Blood Camp, one or two, and countless soldiers began to raise their hands to surrender.

The battle was basically over before the third update. The rest was to capture deserters, which no longer required many troops. But there was another task. In this battle, the direction of Sanlipo was not known, so the prisoners were ordered to take off their armor, and the soldiers of the Tianshu Army replaced the armor of the Tang Dynasty and ran northeast again.

Guo Qianguan and his Tianquan Army, Liu Tong and his White Tiger Brigade began to escort nearly 30,000 prisoners and drove towards the Yellow River. Li Kailuo and the Zhuque Brigade continued to clean the battlefield or search for escaped Tang soldiers. This took a long time, and it may take a day until tomorrow to capture the vast majority of the escaped Tang soldiers.

When he arrived by the Yellow River, Guo Qianguan blew the trumpet and immediately put down many small wooden boats from the upstream. It was better to say that it was a wooden boat than a raft. This was also prepared long ago. It was placed in the mountains and forests behind Lanzhou. Zong Chuke's scout could not notice it. Hearing the trumpet, the people put down the small wooden boats one by one, holding pieces of wooden boards in their arms, and began to build a floating bridge along the Yellow River.

Zong Chuke watched the floating bridge gradually form, but he had no choice but to say that he did not have a wooden boat in his hand, even if he had it, he would not be able to use the tactics of Wang Hua to go upstream and burn the floating bridge. Can it be burned? Can the ships flow upstream to the river after they are unmanned?

Looking at the bright lights on the other side of the river, countless torches shining brightly under the sun, each of the soldiers in the blood camp was full of fierceness, and tens of thousands of them could not be counted. His subordinates became prisoners, and they all shook their heads without frustration. Zong Chuke was about to be crazy.

He began his last madness, and with a wave of his hand, he pushed almost all the soldiers up.

However, seeing his own victory and reinforcements were about to arrive, although the number of defenders on the city was getting smaller and smaller, their morale was stronger and their defense was even more fierce. Wang Hua saw with his own eyes that a blood camp soldier was hit by three arrows, one of which hit the chest. However, even though he knew his life was not long, he held two soldiers who attacked the city and jumped off the city wall.

The battle lasted for more than an hour again, and the pontoon bridge was finally built. Seeing that Lanzhou City was very dangerous, Guo Qianguan and Liu Tong had already discussed it. The captives did not bring their supplies and war horses, but the Tianquan Army took the lead and rushed to the pontoon bridge.

At this point, Zong Chu's face was ashamed and shouted: "Retreat."

The bodies of nearly 10,000 soldiers were left behind and retreated to the east in panic.

But he didn't know that this was just the first scene of the Lanzhou Battle. The real battle was still behind, and the goal was that all his soldiers would be more than 100,000.
