The more difficult the situation is, the more difficult it is for a coach to mess up.
If the coach is messed up, then there will be no need to fight this battle.
Li Ke also realized his mistake and acted according to Zhuge Ying's instructions.
He first sent an urgent message to the coaches in the east and north, instructing them to immediately return reinforcements.
Later, he transferred men from the garrison everywhere to come to Yizhou City to assist in the defense.
People in Shu are not so bad.
After all, they had not encountered any enemy troops and could move wherever they wanted.
But can the troops and horses on the eastern and northern fronts be moved so easily?
The soldiers and horses under Gao Zhixing and Liu Qi are not vegetarians.
Of course, both parties started their own actions as soon as they received the order.
But the final outcome, without exception, ended in failure.
At this moment, the sword gate is closed.
Shang Yunxian could no longer maintain his calm and calm attitude.
He had ordered people to attack the Liangzhou army's front for two days, but they could not even get close to the enemy's camp.
It was only then that they realized how ferocious the Liangzhou Army's firepower was.
The shells of the Zhenguan Cannon seemed to be free of charge. As long as they were fired, the banging and banging would not stop.
Moreover, the Liangzhou Army's use of artillery was far superior to that of the Shu Army.
They knew how many shells the artillery fired before they needed to rest.
He also knows how to arrange his artillery to create the greatest advantage for his side.
Of course, the most important thing is that they have more guns and more shells.
Although Li Chengqian had taken away 300 artillery pieces, there were more than 100 cannons on their front.
What is even more terrifying is the logistics of the Liangzhou Army.
Logically speaking, in a location like Shu, it is extremely difficult to transport supplies.
However, the logistics of the Liangzhou Army were as if they could not be exhausted, and there was never a deficit from beginning to end.
What's more, in recent days, even the Liangzhou army troops attacking the city in front of Jianmen Pass have begun to deploy troops. The artillery is ready.
From the beginning, there were only a dozen cannons to prevent the Shu army from breaking out from the north, but now there are more than a hundred cannons.
Everyone can see that as long as their logistics and equipment are all arranged properly, they will immediately launch a two-line pincer attack on Jianmen Pass.
In this way, regardless of whether Jianmen Pass can be breached, Jianmen Pass will eventually become a ruin.
And the soldiers in and under Jianmen Pass are bound to be wiped out in a hail of artillery fire.
As a result, the Shu army would have no chance of fighting.
After all, fighting is not only a competition for equipment, but also a competition for soldiers.
Whoever has more soldiers and who can fight will have a firm advantage.
And looking at Shang Yunxian, he was heartbroken and worried.
Chen Fukuan on the side slowly said: "If not, I will try again tonight."
"No need."
"We can't capture it during the day, and it's the same at night."
Shang Yunxian sighed and said with a wry smile: "In this battle, we are really in a desperate situation."
"And in my opinion, it won't be long before the Liangzhou Army will launch a general attack on us."
"Now, our task is to recharge our batteries and defend Jianmen Pass."
"At the very least, we cannot let the enemy's large forces pass."
He has now changed from being confident at the beginning to being pessimistic.
He doesn't think about anything else now, he just wants to defend Jianmen Pass and not let the large force of the Liangzhou Army on the northern front pass.
If they were let go, then this battle would not have to be fought.
But sometimes, the war is what they say?
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
While the two were talking, a huge explosion suddenly came from the north.
hear
At this sound, the expressions of the two people suddenly tightened.
Afterwards, the two men rushed out of the central military tent and looked towards the north city wall.
I saw that the gate tower of Jianmen Pass had been blown down by artillery shells.
The soldiers were hurriedly rescuing the injured who were buried under the rubble.
No need to ask or think, this must be the enemy troops on the northern front starting to attack the city.
And that's exactly what happened.
I saw that in the north of Jianmen Pass, the Liangzhou Army had formed a neat battle formation, and under the command of Feng Guangyao, they were advancing in the direction of Jianmen Pass.
The reason why the Liangzhou Army on the northern front did not attack the city before.
First, they have to wait for logistical supplies.
Because when Li Chengqian left, he took away almost all the artillery and sky fire thunder in the general.
As a result, they had no offensive power at all, and they could only wait for Li Tingxue to transport new cannons and shells from behind.
Second, Feng Guangyao has been studying ways to attack Jianmen Pass these days.
The reason why Jianmen Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack is mainly due to the terrain.
First of all, it is difficult to launch an offensive from the bottom up, and the soldiers will easily lose their strength halfway through the charge.
Moreover, it is easier for the enemy to defend in such terrain. Just throwing a few rolling logs and rocks can cause the Liangzhou Army to suffer heavy losses.
The second problem is the narrowness of the valley entrances on both sides.
The Hesitation Pass is narrow, with less than fifty meters in the middle, only enough for thirty or fifty people to walk abreast.
This kind of military formation is like a target for artillery.
Liu Qi had also experimented before. His own soldiers were covered by the opponent's artillery fire and had no place to hide.
Therefore, using people to pile up is definitely not a good way to destroy the city.
What's more, Feng Guangyao would not be stupid enough to adopt such a tactic.
This time, he also considered it carefully.
Finally, they decided on a strategy to attack Jianmen Pass just like Li Chengqian had attacked Jiaohe City. >
Saturation attack.
This is the tactic that the Liangzhou Army is most familiar with and uses the most.
No matter which enemy they are dealing with, their tactics are enough to scare the enemy.
What's more, Liu Qi had tested the firepower points for them in advance.
If it is not used this time, it would be a shame for those comrades who sacrificed their lives to test the firepower point.
After pushing the Zhenguan Cannon to the fire point set by Liu Qi outside Jianmen Pass, Feng Guangyao gave the order to fire without hesitation.
The biggest difference between the Liangzhou Army and the Shu Army is that every general in the Liangzhou Army has the right to make decisions.
If there is an enemy provocation at the border, a small school can lead a team to attack without asking anyone for instructions.
But the Shu army is not like that.
Their behavior is relatively traditional, and every step is taken in accordance with strict military regulations.
Moreover, their general was a traditional military general like Shang Yunxian, so he naturally had to follow military orders.
No matter what happens, they will report it first.
However, this time the Liangzhou Army arrived too quickly.
When the sentries on the top of the city discovered the opponent, they wanted to come back and report that the Liangzhou Army had advanced to the expected firepower point.
Ever since, the scene just happened.
The news of the enemy's attack on the city has not yet reached the ears of the general.
Our own city gate tower was destroyed by the opponent's artillery fire.
But Shang Yunxian also reacted very quickly.
He immediately ordered his artillerymen: "Put up all the cannons and fight back. Counterattack immediately!"
His orders were conveyed quickly, and they were at the top of the city in an instant.
And the artillery fire of the Shu army finally rang out inside Jianmen Pass.
For a time, in the small canyon of Jianmen, the sound of artillery fire was continuous and continuous.
Rolling smoke and dust rose into the sky, and there were screams and wails of soldiers from both sides everywhere...
