The person who interrupted was none other than Shu Mo. Shu Mo has always lived in a state of flattery to those with a higher status than him, and a pretentious attitude towards those with a lower status than him. But his brain is not
Stupid, it should be said that he is relatively smart. Therefore, in normal times, he also knows that in the eyes of others, he is actually looked down upon.
The master Shu Mo met, Wu Shigong, was relatively strong. For Shu Mo, who had a relatively weak personality, he was actually quite content with hiding behind Wu Shigong. He didn't need to use his own brains, and everything just needed to be done.
In this kind of life where just listening to Oh Se Gong’s words is enough.
But these days, Qin Liangyu has seconded Shu Mo to serve as a siege consultant. Moreover, Qin Liangyu also attaches great importance to Shu Mo and basically obeys Shu Mo's ideas for siege.
Shu Mo's two plans to attack the city were actually unsuccessful. But even so, Qin Liangyu was still kind to Shu Mo and did not criticize Shu Mo in any way. This made Shu Mo a little touched.
And now Qin Liangyu is eager to attack the city again after the white-pole soldiers suffered heavy losses. But everyone around her can also see that Qin Liangyu's behavior is actually a little anxious. But no one dares to persuade her, or maybe she is the only one who dares to persuade her.
His son Ma Xianglin dared to persuade him, but was beaten and scolded by Qin Liangyu.
At this time, I don't know what happened. Maybe there was a hint of a scholar's intention to die for his confidant, so Shu Mo opened his mouth to stop Ma Xianglin from attacking the city again. But after Shu Mo said what he said, he saw Qin Liangyu looking at him with phoenix eyes.
He felt regret again in his heart, and he didn't know where the feeling of dying for his confidant had drifted away.
But since the words had been spoken and could not be taken back, Shu Mo had no choice but to continue: "General Qin! This is how I see it. Not to mention the morale of the soldiers, the Tatar city alone has
How many thousands of enemies and swarms are there? We don’t even know. If we attack the city like this, the casualties will definitely be huge."
Seeing Qin Liangyu's frown getting tighter, Shumo quickly continued: "Actually, according to my opinion, it's only been a while now. After the soldiers have had lunch and regained their energy, we can repair the rush car.
, we still have a chance to capture Luanzhou City today. But from a small perspective, we still have one weapon that is useless for attacking the city."
"Oh?" Qin Liangyu's expression softened. To be honest, just now, if Shu Mo, an outsider, had not blocked the way, the angry Qin Liangyu would not have listened to other people's advice at all. Shu Mo had no effect on his siege suggestions.
On the contrary, Qin Liangyu actually admired Shu Mo's suggestions. Therefore, when she heard that Shu Mo had a method of attacking the city, she immediately became interested.
Qin Liangyu immediately asked: "What sharp weapon is it?"
"Artillery!" Shumo replied immediately. But this answer made Qin Liangyu frown again.
The largest artillery piece Wu Shigong lent to Qin Liangyu was only a three-pounder. It could not damage the city wall at all, let alone collapse the city wall. And there was another problem: the artillery of the Ming Dynasty at that time was not able to
Adjusting the high and low firing angle of the artillery means that Wu Shigong's artillery cannot hit the top of the city wall at all. Therefore, no artillery was used in the siege just now.
Seeing Qin Liangyu's doubts, Shu Mo continued: "If the artillery is placed on the cart like this, it will definitely not be able to hit the top of the city wall. However, we can take the artillery off the cart and make a mound on the ground.
Place the artillery diagonally on the mound so that the artillery can hit the top of the city wall."
Shumo then reminded: "But in this case, the accuracy of the artillery cannot be guaranteed. It is inevitable that there will be some accidental damage, so I have to ask General Qin to bear with me."
After hearing this, Qin Liangyu turned to Ma Xianglin. Later, Ma Xianglin would lead the white-pole soldiers to attack the city, and Ma Xianglin would have to bear the risk.
Ma Xianglin opened his mouth and said nonchalantly: "On the battlefield, it is normal to go through fire and water. Some dangers are nothing. However, you must let the artilleryman aim more accurately."
Shumo laughed a few times after hearing this. He continued: "Also, this rush car also pushed back one. If it can be repaired, it can also play a role in the siege later. Also,
The younger one thinks the ladder should be divided into two groups, front and back..."
Qin Liangyu and the surrounding military attachés listened carefully to Shu Mo's plan. They had to admit that Shu Mo's plan was quite well thought out. And this was not just a reflection of Shu Mo's talent in attacking and defending cities. This was
This is mainly due to the fact that Wu Shigong asked the officers to conduct a large number of city attack and defense drills at that time, which gave officers like Shu Mo a lot of experience in city attack and defense.
After Shu Mo finished explaining his plan, Qin Liangyu immediately decided to follow Shu Mo's siege plan. After arranging the military attaches to let the white pole soldiers have lunch quickly, Qin Liangyu gave the chief craftsman of the white pole soldiers to
Called over.
Qin Liangyu asked: "How long will it take to repair the dash car?"
The leader of the craftsmen quickly replied: "It will take two hours to get back to the commander."
"It's too long. I'll give you an hour. You don't have to completely repair the car, as long as the car can be used."
At this time, Qin Liangyu's siege today was not going well, but the Hou Jin Army in Luanzhou City was also very uncomfortable. In the morning siege, the white pole soldiers killed and injured more than 400 people, and the Hou Jin Army also
About 250 people were killed or wounded.
What made Namutai, the commander-in-chief of the Later Jin Army, even more sad was that among the 250 people killed or wounded by the Later Jin Army, more than 100 were flag soldiers with blue flags, and there were nearly 50 white-armored soldiers.
Died in battle.
Now in Luanzhou City, there are only three thousand enemies and a dozen swarms left. According to Namutai's estimation, these weapons can at most withstand an Ming army siege.
Therefore, Namutai quietly summoned Turge and Tanggudai to his side and told them to be ready at all times in case Luanzhou City was broken, to assemble the Jin army in time and escape from the north city gate.
Qin Liangyu was waiting for the ram to be repaired, but at this moment, a spy suddenly ran up on horseback from a distance. The spy came to Qin Liangyu, got off his horse, knelt down and reported: "Commander, the Tatar reinforcements are more than 700
People have already arrived about ten miles away from us in the east."
After listening to the spy's report, Qin Liangyu immediately ordered to the soldiers around him: "Go to Wu Qianhu quickly and tell him to hold off the Tatar reinforcements until the sun sets. If he lets a Tatar come over,
, let him commit suicide and be loyal. Don’t stain the sword of Shang Fang given by the late emperor.”
The soldier immediately let go of his horse's hooves and galloped away in the direction of Wu Shigong's army.
In fact, before the soldiers arrived at Wu Shigong's place, Wu Shigong had already encountered the three Niulu Houjin troops led by Baduli.
Before the spy reported it to Qin Liangyu, when the spy passed by Wu Shigong's blocking army, he had already told Wu Shigong that more than 700 cavalry reinforcements from the Hou Jin Army had arrived. Wu Shigong immediately asked the soldiers who were sitting on the ground to rest.
Stand up, get into formation, and prepare to fight.
All the soldiers were very nervous. However, because they were arrayed on the spot, the formation was very neat. Soon, from far to near, Baduli's reinforcements had arrived, and they were also in front of Wu Shigong's formation.
Three or four hundred paces away, the horse stopped. The two sides just faced off.
Badu Li suddenly stood up on the saddle and made an acrobatic movement. He covered his eyebrows with his hands and squinted his eyes to carefully observe the formation of Wu Shigong's army. As he watched, Badu Li felt that it was very difficult.
Wu Shigong's troops were arranged neatly, and there was a wooden fence in front of the formation.
Badu Li has been on the battlefield for a long time and knows that there are no bells and whistles in the army. Since the Ming army in front can line up so neatly, their usual training level must be very high, and their combat effectiveness will not be much worse.
It was not possible for Badu Li to bypass the Ming army in front of him and directly attack the Ming army attacking Luanzhou City. Because if he did this, not to mention that the terrain here was not open, and Badu Li would not have enough space to bypass it.
The Ming army in front of them.
Let’s just say that Badu Li can lead the Hou Jin army to go around. When Badu Li leads the reinforcements and the Hou Jin army in Luanzhou City to attack Qin Liangyu’s army, Wu Shigong’s army will also turn back and attack Badu Li’s support.
military.
At that time, it will be nothing more than a melee. No matter what the battle situation is, it will be a lose-lose result. The losses of the Hou Jin Army will definitely be insignificant, and the flag soldiers with the blue flag will also suffer heavy casualties. Because the troops led by Baduli
This support army is composed of flag soldiers with blue flags.
More importantly, the main purpose of why Beile Lord Amin sent Baduli's reinforcements was to allow Baduli to assist the Jin army after Luanzhou City retreated when Luanzhou City could not be saved. It was also to cover Amin.
They retreated from Yongping City with the looted property and population. In other words, the main purpose was to preserve the strength of Xianglan Banner. Therefore, the approach of bypassing the Ming army in front of them was not in line with Baduli's support army.
combat purpose.
Wu Shigong didn't know what Baduli was thinking at this time, and he was very nervous. Wu Shigong had already received the order from the soldiers sent by Qin Liangyu, and knew that Qin Liangyu wanted him to drag the Houjin army in front of him until night. So.
, Wu Shigong is now particularly afraid that the post-Jin army in front of him will bypass his own army.
But what makes Wu Shigong strange is that after the arrival of the Hou Jin army in front of him, he did not make any move and just kept confronting him. Wu Shigong was looking forward to in his heart: "The two sides will just keep confronting each other like this."
