Chapter 1235 Fast Advancement
Although Tang San wasted a lot of time on the march, when his army had arrived at his destination and was on the verge of the fortress, he immediately took a new attack. Tangshan's approach was to continue attacking the two small fortresses and the fortress body at the same time.
The person responsible for attacking the main body of the fortress was Yang Jie's vanguard army. In addition, he sent two generals to lead their respective troops to attack two small fortresses.
The other men did not make any other moves, but remained alert and were ready to join the battlefield at any time to launch an attack on the Arnold army.
It seems that although Tangshan has requested the alliance to provide medium- and long-term material support, it has not given up on its consideration of solving Arnold's problem as soon as possible. He asked the alliance for more material resources, which may be just a preparation and a back-up for Tangshan.
For example, with Tang San's strategy, if he can really beat the fortress in one fell swoop, he should not continue, that would be the best result. If it doesn't work, he will continue to siege here and make plans for medium- and long-term battles.
The team of troops was very careful when fighting. At this time, Arnold was indeed as Tangshan expected, standing on the fortress tower. Of course, Arnold didn't know that Tang San was treating himself as the most important opponent to defeat himself. He was observing, but in fact he was mainly observing the size of the Tang San army.
Compared with the 10,000 troops in Tangshan now, Ross's 10,000 troops are only three times more in number, but this gives people a completely different sense.
Due to his low military capabilities and being undermined by the general in his hands, Ross seemed so stupid that his division of troops was blocked.
Moreover, he was very dull during the battle, and in the end it was because he was unable to seize the opportunity, so even if he wanted to escape, it became impossible.
Now if it were Tangshan's leaders, the entire team showed a feeling of being prepared in everything. Although it was only twice as many people, it felt like it was crowded with a huge number.
This is mainly because Tangshan organized the team and organized it very well, so its senses are different from those of Ross, and their respective states look very different.
Moreover, this attack was very different from when Ross attacked, where his warriors were under his charge by three generals, and he himself was just a bystander and stood by.
Tangshan is different now, Tangshan directly participated in the team transfer
The soldiers are sent to command the battle, and the generals under their command are just a specific executor. The entire strategic and tactical arrangement can be said to be operated by Tangshan in one hand.
The forward Yang Jie ordered the captains of the hundred-man team to lead their soldiers to charge towards the fortress. According to the general siege rules, few people who need to charge during siege are slowly approaching the city wall. However, there is a problem here. Yang Jie found that Arnold and the so-called No. 1 location, this fortress, was not an isolated city, but there were two independent small fortresses on both sides of the fortress.
In other words, under such circumstances, due to the two small fortresses, Yang Jie and the others were infinitely widened, so they had to take the form of charge to quickly reach the fortress. It can be said that this section of the road has completely become a life-and-death road.
Countless arrows were shot from the fortress, and one Alliance soldiers after another were shot down on the road, and the guards above the fortress were also very smart. They did not use any other weapons, but were covered by arrow rain. This was mainly due to the low cost and wide coverage of shots. And most importantly, there were a large reserve of arrows in the fortress.
Yang Jie's men suffered a lot of losses during this charge. Of course, the result was not wonderful, and it also annoyed him. Yang Jie is a veteran on the battlefield and knew that charges could not arrange the formation too densely, so his team was a relatively loose formation.
However, because the Arnold army above the fortress can be said to have sealed the road very well, under such circumstances, Yang Jie's soldiers were blocked while charging and could not rush to the fortress.
In fact, the biggest obstacle in this is because the attack distance is too far. Fortunately, Yang Jie suffered heavy losses in the maze before he arrived here, so he only has more than 1,000 people now. He must at least be more cautious in using it. The progressive team type and charge have always been divided into small units.
So although the opponent's arrow rain covers and shoots are quite powerful, from this point of view, it has a lot of obstacles to Yang Jie's army, but not many soldiers who really kill him.
Tangshan is also a strange military commander. He is not without enough troops, but he refuses to supplement Yang Jie. Yang Jie has no way to break Tang San's approach.
Moreover, because of Tangshan's approach, it also weakened the attack power. Yang Jie had some complaints about Tangshan's arrangements before, thinking that since Tangshan, you want to take it.
A team like me will be the first to attack the army, but I know that Yang Jie's team is relatively small, but I don't arrange for supplements. It is really unfair to ask him to lead his remaining more than 1,000 troops to attack the enemy.
Under such circumstances, Yang Jie was more cautious in using his troops in order to protect his strength. The result was that the wounds and casualties he suffered in the end were actually less than what he operated under normal circumstances.
However, as the commander of this war, he doesn't really value this. What he mainly cares about is how much effect the charge has achieved. For many people, such an attack formation can be regarded as a coincidence.
Seeing the rain of arrows on the city wall leaking, Yang Jie pondered for a moment and shouted to the subordinates, "Scatter the team completely, and hold this wooden board as a unit, and charge forward at a speed."
The so-called wooden board is the large and simple shield they made with the cut down trees to block the other party's rain of arrows and cover the team's progress.
In this forest, there are the most trees, and they can be said to have everything, and they have experience in logging, so soon, many simple shields made of trees were all erected.
Sure enough, after this, the rain of arrows shot from the fortress began to be blocked. Yang Jie's army finally arrived at the corner of the city wall with difficulty and began to think about how to attack the city.
Yang Jie was ahead, and everything was going smoothly. Although it was difficult for the army to withstand the rain of arrows after using the simple shields made, the loss was not particularly great, and finally arrived at the foot of the fortress wall. Most of the soldiers were excited and thought that the city was broken in front of them.
But Tangshan, who was watching the battle behind, frowned. Although he was not particularly clear about some of the details of Ross' siege, he should still know the general situation.
Yang Jie's march this time was obviously too relaxed. Although there may only be a few thousand people above the fortress, no matter how, these thousands of people rely on the geographical environment of the fortress and the materials stored there, it is unlikely that they could be attacked under the city wall by Yang Jie's more than 1,000 men. As the saying goes, something abnormal will happen. There is only one possibility now, that is, the other party deliberately put Yang Jie and the others at the foot of the city wall.
