Chapter 1398 The coercion of the two generals
Chen Leng and Meng Chang'an came up from behind. The soldiers were cleaning the battlefield and breaking through the second beam. They were only two arrows away from the mountain city. However, this section of the slope was very large, the road was not wide, the mountain city was strong, and the city defense was fierce.
"How about it?"
Chen Leng looked at Xie Jiuzhuan and asked.
"Highly trained, good combat power, but lack discipline and poor fighting spirit."
Xie Jiuzhuan said: "Their fighting style is similar to that of war soldiers. It can be seen that they are trained according to the war soldiers mode, but their abilities are uneven. After learning the appearance of the Daning war soldiers, they cannot learn the essence. They actually don't know that the essence of the Daning war soldiers tactics is faith."
Chen Leng nodded.
Xie Jiuzhang continued: "The combat power is generally stronger than ordinary water bandits. They know how to cooperate, and the training time must be quite short, but it is not difficult for people to fight, but it is difficult to fight the terrain."
Xie Jiuzhang pointed upwards: "From here to the mountain city, at most, there are hundreds of people who have expanded. They have repaired the city wall. Although we brought a ladder, the terrain of this expansion is really narrow and the ladder is not very useful. If we can only attack the city gate, if they block the city gate again, it will be even more difficult to kill it."
His voice was a little low, because he was worried that the soldiers would hear the words and affect their morale.
Chen Leng nodded: "Look carefully first."
He stepped forward and Meng Changan followed.
Xie Jiuzhuan said to himself: "These water bandits in Dakaishan are really lucky, and the two generals came here in person."
Chen Ran passed by him and said with a smile: "So they should be very satisfied. This is worth bragging."
Among the new generation of generals in Daning, even the people think that the one who can beat the most is Chen Leng and the other is Meng Chang'an. Chen Leng has never lost, and Meng Chang'an has never lost. Now they are both here. Although it is a coincidence, they are really a little excited.
If it is normal to attack this size of water bandits, why should we use the general to take action? It is still two?
Chen Leng didn't seem to worry about the feather arrows that would be put down on the city wall at all. He walked along the high slope to a place where there was no place for the city wall, and raised his eyes and looked up.
The water bandits on the mountain city did not shoot arrows easily for a while. There were only a few people coming up, and they couldn't figure out what the use of these people coming up.
The leader of the water bandit, Guo Ting, was also looking at Chen Leng and the others with a thousand eyes. The two men who looked not very old were extraordinary. The generals who led the team to attack before were still following the two men. This shows that the other party's identity was even more extraordinary. The most important thing is that the two men had not been followed by others when they were almost approaching.
"Who are those two?"
A water bandit looked at Chen Leng and Meng Chang'an and felt a little unhappy.
"They just walked over here, aren't you afraid of death?"
Guo Ting said: "It should be a big shot, I want to take a closer look at our defense."
After saying that, he put Qianliyan aside, took a hard bow in his hand, and aimed at Chen Leng: "No matter who he is, if you don't take us seriously, let them know what the price of arrogance is."
As soon as this sentence was finished, the bowstring was released, and the iron feather arrow shot out with a whoosh. The arrow flew straight out of the city wall like a stream of light. After the arrow was shot out, Guo Ting had already foresawed the appearance of the man being shot to death by himself. At this distance, with his archery skills and the heavy edge of his iron feather arrow, no one could avoid it.
In fact, Chen Leng seemed to be unaware of it, still holding a thousand eyes to watch, and the person who was watching the archer was watching.
"It's a six, maybe a seven, but there can't be more."
He said to himself.
The arrow arrived in an instant and came to Chen Leng with the sound of breaking through the air.
Bang.
Meng Changan, who was standing beside Shen Leng, reached out to snatch it up.
When the arrow was pulled aside.
It seemed that the arrow seemed so helpless. After turning a few circles, it fell to the ground. The arrow fell to the ground and felt a sense of helpless sadness.
When Guo Ting, who was on the city wall, saw this scene, subconsciously opened his mouth wide. He said that he did not believe that the iron feather arrow that he shot out could penetrate the war soldiers' shield was pulled away by that man casually and did not respect his arrow at all.
The arrow was pulled off by Meng Changan, and his chin was almost dropped.
Guo Ting said to himself: "This is impossible."
He immediately grabbed two iron feather arrows in his hand and quickly released an arrow towards Chen Leng. The first arrow had just left the bowstring, and the second arrow had already been put on and pulled it all over again. With a buzzing sound, the second arrow also flew out.
Two arrows in a row are almost connected to the end.
Chen Leng raised his eyes and was still looking at the defense of the mountain city. While looking, he said, "There are no heavy defensive weapons on the city wall, and there is not a single bed crossbow. Their number of arrows should be limited, so it will not be too difficult to break through the mountain city."
While speaking, the first arrow flew in front of him. Meng Changan reached out and grabbed it in front of him, grabbed it, and then swept it with the clenched arrow, sweeping away the second arrow.
He said while taking action: "The shield formation formed by infantry shields is close to the city wall. Although the team cannot be expanded much, the defensive forces that the water bandits can deploy are the same. The strength we can use is only as strong as we can, and they are not as strong as ours."
The two of them continued to look at the terrain while talking, and the two arrows seemed to make no sense.
Guo Ting's face had become ugly. He looked down at the bow in his hand, and then looked at the two people outside.
"How is this possible?"
He stood there for a while, then opened his throat and shouted at the underworld: "Who are you!"
Meng Changan was looking down at the iron feather arrow in his hand. After hearing the shout, he raised his head and looked at Guo Ting, pointing at Chen Leng beside him: "He is Chen Leng."
The bandits on the city wall exclaimed in a low voice.
When Yuwen Xiaoce and Chang Yueyu left, they never told them that Chen Leng was coming. They thought that the ones who came here were just soldiers from Chong'an County, or at most soldiers from Yizi Camp.
"Is the Donghai Navy here to attack us?"
A water bandit stammered: "If it was really the East China Sea navy, what should we do?"
Another water bandit said: "If it was really the East China Sea navy, we might be really finished this time."
"Shut up!"
Guo Ting glared at them, then pointed at Meng Changan and shouted: "I want to know who you are!"
Meng Changan replied: "If you know, you will be afraid."
Guo Ting: "Why are you bluffing? Chen Leng is here, who am I afraid of?!"
"I am Meng Chang'an."
These words floated to the city wall. Guo Ting's men subconsciously supported the city wall. Did the other water bandits' faces reach the extreme? One general was not enough. Two generals came?
A general of the East China Sea Navy and a general of the East Xinjiang swordsmanship. Those two guys were slaughtered by ten thousand people.
Guo Ting swallowed with difficulty and smiled hard: "Don't think you can scare me. What if you two are Chen Leng and the other are Meng Chang'an? I feel very honored. You two come and hit me. Should I think I am very powerful?"
Meng Changan ignored him and looked at Chen Leng: "Have you thought about how to fight?"
Chen Leng nodded: "Yes."
Meng Chang'an: "Then let's go."
Chen Leng: "Yeah."
Then the two of them turned around and left.
Guo Ting's angry face changed. The two of them really didn't take him seriously. He immediately pulled out three arrows from the quiver pot and fired three arrows at Chen Leng Meng Chang'an.
But this time Meng Changan did not take action, and Chen Leng did not look back.
The personal soldiers are still there.
A general should have the momentum of a general.
Chen Leng's personal soldiers drew their swords. The three men took steps at the same time, and three swords fell at the same time. There was no communication at all. However, it seemed that they had practiced countless times. Three swords fell and three iron feather arrows were cut off.
Meng Changan had no opinion on those arrows, but was very interested in Chen Leng's personal soldiers.
"good."
He said two words.
Chen coldly glanced at him: "Stop making a decision."
After he walked down, he said to Xie Jiuzhuan: "I have looked carefully. If you want to break through the mountain city, the most important thing is not attack, but suppression. There are crossbows on our warships, but in this case, there is a weapon that is more effective than crossbows."
Xie Jiuzhuan didn't understand: "General, what is it?"
Chen Leng raised his finger and pointed at Meng Changan's mouth: "Must cannon."
Meng Changan glared at him.
Chen sneered: "What General Meng Chang'an was doing just now was a standard tactic of putting pressure on the lonely army. He told the water bandits on the city wall that I was Chen Leng and he was Meng Chang'an. The names of our two people were under great pressure for the water bandits, so I suddenly understood how Tang Pidian broke through the mountain city back then."
When he stood only one arrow from the city wall, he looked at the city wall, and seemed to feel the momentum of General Tang Pidian standing in this position hundreds of years ago watching the city wall.
Later, the young elites in the Preparatory Department of the Daning Ministry of War could not understand because they were indeed real tactical elites, but they had too little combat experience. Without practical experience, they would constrain their thinking. Their tactics would not consider how much pressure a person has on the enemy, and it was the pressure of one person on tens of thousands of people.
Hundreds of years ago, General Tang Pidian stood not far from Shen Leng Station, with only a personal soldier holding him a flag. He stood there like a javelin, and the flag was swaying.
He raised his hand and pointed at the Thirteen Alliance Water Bandits on the city wall and said, "I am Tang Pidian. I will only say once. Those who surrender will not die, but you can join my command. From then on, I treat you like brothers, and share the blessings. I Tang Pidian are ahead of you, and you are behind me. If you do not surrender and resist stubbornly, you should have heard of my Tang Pidian's reputation. I kill not only people, but those who fight against me will have to dig up the ancestral tombs. I have never been a person who cares about disasters but my family will die. My enemies and the whole family will die."
After saying this, he turned around and left, shouting loudly as he walked: "Those who open the city gate will reward a thousand taels of gold, and will be granted a general, and those who bring the heads of the 13th alliance bandits to see me will also reward a thousand taels of gold, and will be granted a thousand taels of gold."
This is unreasonable, just because he is Tang Pidian who will kill all the enemies in every battle, just because he is Tang Pidian who never keeps a living, because he is Tang Pidian who will do what he says, and because he is Tang Pidian who is loyal, the mountain city is so broken.
The thirteenth alliance water bandits were in civil strife because of his words, and soon opened the city gate.
So hundreds of years later, the elites of the Ministry of War Preparation Department came to the conclusion that Tang Pi was against Niu.
Now for the people in the mountain city, they are facing the same situation. Although Chen Leng and Meng Changan did not say that, they are under the pressure.
When the Thirteenth League faced a Tang Pi, they now faced two.
The difference is that the water bandits in the mountain city are not yet elected. This is not a chaotic era, and they will be innocent if they surrender.
There are rules for troubled times, and there are rules for prosperous times.
The reason why Chen Leng and Meng Changan did not say the same thing as Tang Piede back then was because they never negotiated with the water bandits.
