Chapter 258
The northwest direction of Wuji County is near Maqiao Town.
A cavalry quietly entered Maqiao Town and robbed and fought again, but this time the harvest was very small. Tadun led the cavalry all the way, the closer he got to Wuji County, the smaller the harvest was, because many people had already escaped.
Su Puyan, Nanlou, Wuyan and others had no gains and began to question Tadun.
In fact, Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wuyan are not subordinates of Qiu Liju. They are the little kings of three tribes. They just surrender to Qiu Liju and are willing to obey Qiu Liju's orders, but it does not mean that they will obey wholeheartedly. When their interests are not satisfied, they will immediately turn against Tadun.
When Tadun encountered this situation, he was not panicked and brought the three of them together.
Tadun said slowly with a calm expression: "Three leaders, we have come all the way with our soldiers. The reason why the harvest has decreased is because the people have fled to Wuji County. In the situation of Wuji County, you all have news that Gongsun Zan is attacking for force, but Gongsun Zan did not take it down, and the battle situation has become stalemate."
"If we were to attack Wuji County, do we think we could take Wuji County? Obviously it was impossible to take it, because we didn't even have the equipment to attack the city. The only way was to rob ordinary villages and towns."
"My plan is to avoid Wuji County and continue to go south. The people of Zhongshan Kingdom fled to Wuji County to take refuge, but the people of the counties and counties in the south do not know the situation. If we go down, we will surely rob more property."
"Three, what do you think?"
Tadun smiled at the corner of his mouth, looking confident.
He was sure that these three people would not refuse.
Nanlou, Su Puyan and Wuyan looked at each other, nodded, agreeing with Tadun's proposal. For them, what they value was the benefits of getting hands, and the rest was not taken seriously.
...
The next morning, Gongsun Zan ordered the soldiers to attack again.
After a night of restoring energy, the soldiers under Gongsun Zan recovered their energy and continued to attack Wuji County. Compared with yesterday, Gongsun Zan's soldiers' offensive not only did not weaken, but were even more fierce.
The equipment for siege is coming continuously.
Large rocks were shot out, bombarded the city wall, and dents were broken.
Some big rocks fell on the aisle on the city tower, clanging on the soldiers, directly pressing the soldiers into meat pies.
The Youzhou Army attacked fiercely, and Taishici did not give in at all.
In addition to the soldiers guarding the city, armed people have already participated in the battle. These newly recruited people have held steel knives to participate in the battle. Although the combat power is good, the effect will not be bad after the number is large, and they can stop the Youzhou army from killing.
In addition, Taishici also made certain adjustments to the soldiers of the army.
Gongsun Zan attacked fiercely, and Taishici did not dispatch all the soldiers to resist. Every day, Taishici dispatched different soldiers to resist on the city tower to maximize the combat effectiveness of the soldiers and allow the soldiers to maintain for a longer period of time. With the help of the people, the defense of the city tower was strengthened, and Gongsun Zan, who was paying attention to the battle, also discovered a different place.
According to common sense, the defense becomes weaker the further you go.
Taishici's defense was different, but it was stronger than yesterday, which made Gongsun Zan feel strange.
Zhao Yun stood beside Gongsun Zan on a horse. Seeing the soldiers rushing to fight, a hint of desire appeared in his eyes, hoping to make meritorious service to kill the enemy. He looked at Gongsun Zan and clasped his fists and said, "Lord, please fight!"
Gongsun Zan refused without hesitation without hesitation: "Zilong, you are one of the few brave generals under my command, and you cannot take risks. What if you have a few bad things, wouldn't Baima Yi never have a main general? You are responsible for rushing, not siege the city."
Zhao Yun sighed lightly, feeling quite helpless.
Gongsun Zan knew Zhao Yun's ability, so he asked Zhao Yun to command the White Horse.
However, Gongsun Zan does not need a person with high prestige and fruitful results to command Baima Yicong, because he will feel threatened. As long as Zhao Yun's achievements have always been mediocre, Gongsun Zan can be assured to let Zhao Yun command Baima Yicong.
The day's battle ended, and countless casualties were killed or injured on both sides.
Taishi Ci counted the dead and injured soldiers, and after a while, Taishi Ci was so sad that she felt sorry for her. During the day, more than 800 people died, and more than 1,400 people were injured, and their combat effectiveness was seriously damaged. Such a situation could not last long. After dinner, Taishi Ci stood on the city tower with a cold expression.
This battle is not easy!
But I don’t know when the lord will come?
Taishici was stunned on the city tower, and Gongsun Zan was in a gloomy face and was very unhappy in the Youzhou Army camp outside the city. He was in a very bad mood. Looking at the civil servants and military generals under his command, Gongsun Zan said, "The attack is not good at the moment, what are your ideas?"
Officials shut up, not knowing what to say?
Zhao Yun sat in the last seat, opened his mouth but did not speak.
"I am raising you on weekdays, but at the critical moment, you are all mute. Humph, a bunch of food..." A cold snorted, showing that Gongsun Zan was very dissatisfied.
"Brother, I will win this battle!"
On the left side of the camp, a middle-aged man with a thin figure wearing a Bagua Taoist robe and looking fairy-like appearance said.
This man's name is Liu Weitai, he is Gongsun Zan's sworn brother and a divinationist.
Liu Bei had the Taoyuan three-part alliance, and Gongsun Zan was not inferior, so he came to the Youzhou four-part alliance. Gongsun Zan was the well-deserved boss, the second was the charlatan Liu Weitai, the third was Li Yizi, who sold silk cloth, and the fourth was a businessman Le Hedang. The four of them had a close relationship. When they led troops to fight, Gongsun Zan all brought four of them.
As soon as Liu Weitai spoke, Gongsun Zan became interested and asked hurriedly: "Why did your second brother say this?"
Gongsun Zan was very convinced of Liu Weitai's divination. Every time Gongsun Zan asked Liu Weitai, the final result was fulfilled, so when Liu Weitai spoke, Gongsun Zan was very happy.
Liu Weitai said: "Brother, I observe the celestial phenomena at night, and then personally divination. I infer that there were twists and turns in the process of this battle, but in the end, my brother will win. This time I attack Jizhou, my brother will definitely lay a foundation."
In an instant, a smile appeared on Gongsun Zan's face.
Zhao Yun's mouth twitched, and a hint of disdain appeared in his eyes, not believing Liu Weitai's words. However, Zhao Yun could not refute Liu Weitai. Liu Weitai's position in Gongsun Zan's heart was extraordinary. He stood up to oppose it was not interesting to me.
Gongsun Zan felt better and said, "This battle is related to my Gongsun Zan's great cause, and the attack on Wuji County is in a stalemate. Do you have any suggestions? Use my brain and think about it carefully."
"Lord, there will be a plan at the end, and you can take down Wuji County." Tian Kai stood up and said with his fists.
Gongsun Zan hurriedly said, "Speak quickly, speak quickly!"
Tian Kai looked serious and said slowly: "Today, the two armies were fighting, and I found that the defense of Wuji County was slightly strengthened and the troops were more powerful. I asked the attacking soldiers and learned that the people in the city had participated in the war. The people participated in the war. I could boldly speculate that Taishici had exhausted his troops and had reached the end of his life."
Speaking of this, Tian Kai said confidently: "I suggest changing the strategy of attacking Wuji County, from surrounding the four sides to surrounding three missing one, and then shooting feather arrows into the city, and the words "submitted ones will not be killed" should be tied to the bow and arrow, so that the people know that we have given a way out and that the people have the intention to survive. If the people who help Taishi Ci lose their fighting spirit, Taishi Ci will definitely be defeated."
"Okay, good plan!"
Gongsun Zan stroked his hands and nodded repeatedly, looking very excited.
