This is equivalent to the most primitive and simple infantry and artillery coordination. When the soldiers were pushing the carts and cloud towers, and were about to approach the city wall, the trebuchets stopped shooting, and then the bed slaves also stopped shooting. At this time, he said
The building has already reached the city wall, and the building cart is about to reach the city wall.
At this time, countless arrows were suddenly shot from the city. These arrows were all shot by bed slaves, and the arrows were all rockets. The wooden targets of these arrows were the trebuchets.
The arrows were shot out, and several of those trebuchets were destroyed at once, and then countless enemy troops suddenly appeared on the city wall. These enemy troops used something like a big fork with one end covered with iron to hit them.
The cloud towers were pushed down, and at the same time countless archers appeared on the city wall. These archers kept shooting arrows downwards, and then rolled wood and stones, hitting them straight down. The soldiers who participated in the siege this time
, fell off the ladder one by one, and even several trucks were destroyed.
Upon seeing this situation, the first group of soldiers who attacked the city immediately retreated, and then the second group rushed forward. They also pushed the cloud tower and the cart, but their speed was not very fast.
The bed slaves of the Holy Alliance Alliance started shooting at one time to suppress the opponent's bed slaves.
The first attack was still unsuccessful. The people in the city seemed to be very knowledgeable about defending the city. Although they attacked several times, they were unsuccessful.
It's time to stop being in a hurry and attack the city. The more anxious you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes. Once you make a mistake, it will give the enemy an opportunity.
The day's battle passed quickly. The coalition launched five attacks that day, but none of them were successful. The five attacks resulted in the loss of nearly 2,000 men, fifty-seven bed slaves, and sixty-five trebuchets.
, twenty-four carriages, seventy-eight ladders, more than five thousand arrows, and nearly four hundred stone bullets.
Such results were expected by Nian Yijiu and the others. In the evening, Nian Yijiu called everyone for a meeting. When everyone gathered at the Chinese army tent, Nian Yijiu looked at everyone and said: "Today
Everyone has seen the situation of the siege. Let’s talk about it. How is the situation of the siege today?”
When Nian Yijiu said this, everyone couldn't help but look at each other. In their opinion, today's attack on the city was quite satisfactory. Although there was nothing outstanding and no mistakes were made. What did Nian Yijiu mean by asking this? Could it be that he was right?
Are you dissatisfied with today's siege?
Nian Yijiu looked at them and said in a deep voice: "Today's siege battle can only be regarded as quite satisfactory. There is nothing outstanding about it. The tactics are average and the siege army is average. However, there is still one advantage, that is, you can watch
Going out of the city, the city has made very thorough preparations. They should have some facilities to prevent trebuchets and arrows in the city, so the losses of their personnel in today's battle were not very big, and the city
The defensive equipment inside is very complete, which shows that they are also very well prepared. It may not be that easy to capture Nanhua Gate in a short time."
When everyone heard what Nian Yijiu said, they all let out a sigh of relief. It turned out that Nian Yijiu was going to say this, and they could accept it. After all, the main purpose of today's attack on the city was also because of this. The first time you attack the city, you
It is impossible to capture the city, so the first day of siege is usually to see what is going on in the city and the morale of the defenders in the city. In other aspects, there is really no way to ask for it.
too much.
Nian Yijiu glanced at everyone and said: "Tomorrow we will continue to test for a day. The attack cannot be stopped. We must see if the enemy has any backup plans. But an attack like today will definitely not be tried."
, so I plan to strengthen the attack tomorrow. Each offensive echelon has a strength of five thousand. If there are casualties and retreat in less than a day, five thousand people will be punished. We must test the bottom line of the city defenders. At the same time, tomorrow each
The Wukong-level masters in the city-state should be prepared and ready to support at any time, because the other side may send Wukong-level masters to join the battle."
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard what Nian Yijiu said. You must know that even if the elite army loses one-fifth of its strength in a battle, it has reached the limit of what this army can bear. If the losses continue,
The army might collapse.
And the order of Nian 19 turned out to be that if five thousand people retreated with less than one thousand losses, those five thousand people would be punished. This was too strict, and I am afraid that not many armies could do it.
At the same time, such an order would greatly increase the casualties of the army. For a moment, the generals in the tent became silent one by one, and the whole tent became audible.
Nian Yijiu is not completely stupid. On the contrary, his ability to observe faces is absolutely top-notch. So when he saw the reactions of these people, he knew that they were against it. Nian Yijiu immediately said: "I know
This will increase everyone's losses, but there is nothing we can do about it. If we don't force out all their cards, our losses will only be greater in the future."
Everyone still didn't speak. Nian Yijiu looked at the generals and felt a surge of anger in his heart. Only now did he realize how difficult it was to be the leader of the alliance. After such a small loss, these people already had their opinions.
, if this really encounters a more difficult battle, how will these people react? Will they be directly frightened?
But Nian Yijiu didn't dare to get angry at those people. He knew very well how he became the leader of the alliance. If he really got angry at those people, he might not be able to take the position of leader.
An Jing, those people can push him to the position of alliance leader, and they can also pull him down from the position of alliance leader.
So Nian Yijiu could only suppress the anger in his heart, and continued: "Everyone, if we can't take down Nanhua Gate as soon as possible, then we will fall into passivity. Do you think that this time the attack will be in vain?
Let’s not talk about losing troops and generals, is it still a waste of money and food? If you don’t want to, then we will attack fiercely tomorrow and force the opponent to show their trump cards. Only in this way can we come up with better ways to deal with it and destroy the opponent.
.”
Nian Yijiu's words really had some effect. Except for Nian Yijiu, those sitting here are generally generals from other city-states. The city lords of other city-states did not participate in this war. After all, they are from the same city.
Unlike Nian Yijiu, who wants to use this war to consolidate his position as leader, they will naturally not show up.
It is precisely because these people are not city lords, but just generals of various city-states, that the words of Nian 19 have an effect. If they really can't even take down Nanhua Gate this time, they will lose their troops and generals, and waste a lot of money and food.
, if they finally return to their city-state in despair, they will definitely be punished by the city lord of their city-state. No one wants to be punished, so they can only attack. As long as they capture the Nanhua Gate and destroy the Nanhua City-state, they will be able to win.
He returned to his city-state like a vigilante.
Nian 191 saw that the expressions on their faces were a little relaxed, and then he said: "And don't forget, the one thousand people lost in each attack are not from a city-state. What else do you have?"
So worried.”
Upon hearing what Nian Yijiu said, the generals couldn't help but be stunned, and then they immediately realized, yes, every attack was not an army of a city-state, but an army composed of people drawn from the armies of several city-states.
Echelon, calculated in this way, the loss of a thousand people cannot be all from their city-state, but the number of casualties divided among several city-states. So what is there to worry about? The loss is only a few hundred people at most. This
They can still afford to lose someone.
When they thought of this, they no longer objected to Nian Yijiu's words. Everyone said in unison: "I am willing to listen to the leader's order."
Nian Yijiu looked at them. Although he was smiling, there was a trace of impatience and hatred in his eyes. He was really unhappy. One attack could only cost a thousand people, but he was still asked to explain for so long.
Only then did these people agree that it was too hateful, it was really too hateful.
Afterwards, Nian Yijiu assigned matters to several offensive echelons, and then everyone went back. Shi Zhui and the others were just like the previous few days, sitting there and saying nothing during the entire meeting.
After returning to their camp, Shi Zhui and the others arrived at the big tent. Shi Ye looked at Shi Zhui and said, "General Shi, do you think today's plan on the 19th of the year is feasible? Is it a plan to attack by force?"
Shi Chui nodded and said: "As of now, it seems that this plan is feasible. To try out the trump card in the city, this matter must be done sooner or later. However, I feel that Nian Yijiu is still a little anxious. He should be like this today
Attack for a few days, and then suddenly strengthen the attack. Only in this way can you test the city's trump card, and attack by force the next day. At this time, the city has sufficient supplies, the morale of the army is also high, and the enemy's physical strength has not been consumed much.
Attacking forcefully at this time is not the best choice, but it is not considered Huai's choice either. Just leave him alone. It has nothing to do with us anyway. Let's listen to what the people who conducted the reconnaissance today have to say."
Then Shi Chui called back the people who went out for reconnaissance today and asked them how the results of today's reconnaissance were. Not surprisingly, today's reconnaissance results were not very great. Zhuhua Mountain is really steep. I think
It is not that easy to go over the mountain.
However, Shi Zhui didn't care. If it was really so easy to find a place to climb over the mountain, then Zhuhua Mountain would not become the border line. Shi Zhui gave those people orders and asked them to take a piece of
The portable teleportation array will go out for reconnaissance tomorrow. From now on, there is no need to return to the camp to report every day. All you need to do is send him a letter at night to make sure they are okay.
After those people left, Shi Zhui looked at Shi Ye and the others and said, "If we are not allowed to leave the camp to practice on New Year's Day, then we will not leave the camp and practice in the camp, and don't make too big a fuss."
Although we are not afraid of the Lunar New Year, there is no need to conflict with him on this kind of matter. Everyone should keep a low profile these days."
Several people responded. They were now following Shi Zhui's lead, and they also discovered that there was nothing wrong with Shi Zhui's command. Naturally, they didn't say anything, and they all listened to Shi Zhui's words. (To be continued...
