Ge Rong naturally knew at this time what Shentu Zhen was thinking, and it was also a headache for him!
This kid is indeed a good hand in charging into battle, but even if he is too crazy, he can easily fall into the enemy's plan.
Last time, he fell into the trap of Han general Xiao Hui and almost couldn't come back. Unexpectedly, up to now, he still hasn't got rid of this habit of underestimating the enemy.
Seeing that Shentu Town took the initiative to ask for a battle, Ge Rong was also a little moved, but after thinking about it for a while, he still smiled and said: "There is no rush for now. Let's send an envoy to lobby first. It would be better if we can succeed. Even if it fails,
It won’t have any impact.”
Ge Rong's thinking was simple. If he could succeed in lobbying by chance, he would be able to defeat the enemy without fighting. Even if he couldn't, it would only be a waste of words.
"This... then let's do what you want, Commander Qu." Shentu Zhen retreated helplessly. He still preferred to kill directly.
However, what Ge Rong really didn't expect was that the envoy he sent was shot dead by Han general Xu Feng with an arrow as soon as he arrived at the gate of Zhuoxian County before he could identify himself.
"Ge Rong, there are only heroes who died in battle in Zhuoxian County, and there are no bears who have surrendered. No one will surrender to you." After Xu Feng shot the Yellow Turban messenger, he immediately returned the long bow in his hand to the soldier next to him.
Then he shouted loudly to the Yellow Turban camp.
Hearing Xu Feng's words, Ge Rong felt like his lungs were exploding with anger. He clenched his fists, with thick anger flashing in his eyes. Then he gritted his teeth and said: "What a Xu Feng. As the saying goes, two armies cannot fight together."
I killed the envoy, but I didn’t expect the Han army to be so unruly."
"Your Yellow Turban Army is just a traitor. There is no need to pay attention to morality in dealing with you." Xu Feng sneered, his eyes full of disdain.
"General Xu, you..." Zhang Ren wanted to see Xu Feng kill the Yellow Turban messenger with an arrow, but he didn't know his intention.
He was worried that he would want to surrender because of the overwhelming power of the Yellow Turban Army, so he shot the Yellow Turban Army envoy with one arrow in order to completely cut off his thoughts.
Zhang Renyuan did not expose Xu Feng's little thoughts and had no intention of blaming him. After all, this was a sign of his loyalty to Wang Yu.
At this time, Xu Feng might have been afraid of Zhang Renyuan and thought too much, so he immediately explained: "General Zhang, this Ge Rong is not an ordinary reckless man. Since several generals were defeated one after another, Zhuojun's peripheral defenses were lost, so
It can be seen that this person has both civil and military skills."
"If we let him take the initiative, it will be detrimental to our army."
"I believe you, you just don't trust me!" Listening to Xu Feng's serious nonsense, Zhang Renyuan complained secretly in his heart, but he didn't feel any dissatisfaction in his heart.
After all, Xu Feng's move was also to avoid some problems in the future.
…………
"General Shentu, I ordered you to go and challenge him, kill several of his Han generals, and give a good blow to the morale of the Han army." Since persuading surrender had no effect, Ge Rong no longer had other unrealistic illusions and decisively eliminated
Sent General Shentu Zhen to challenge.
"Han troops in the city, listen to me. I am the Yellow Turban General Shentu Town. Who dares to come and fight me to the death..."
However, before Shentu Town could even say the word "war", Li Diannan, Xu Feng, Zhang Fei and others on the city wall ordered their men to wait with arrows. What greeted Shentu Town was a burst of arrow attacks.
If Shentu Zhen hadn't been very agile in his movements and very strong in martial arts, blocking and dodging at the same time, he might have left a few arrows on his body this time.
"Commander Qu, this Han army guard general in Zhuoxian County is really..."
After finally escaping from the gate of hell, Shentu Town was immediately so angry that he could not speak. He hesitated for a long time and finally choked out one sentence: "You don't have martial ethics."
"Well, since the Han army wants to huddle in the city and wait for Daijun's reinforcements to arrive, then our army should attack the city directly and let him know that even if the reinforcements can come out, they will be gone by then." Ge Rong
He said coldly, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
A smart person like Ge Rong could naturally guess that the Han army had such confidence to compete with the Yellow Turban Army, and it was the supporting army from Guangyang County.
It has to be said that the Liaodong Army's combat effectiveness is indeed powerful. It has fought against the Jurchens and Goguryeo many times on the battlefield, but this does not mean that the Yellow Turban army that stopped them has a weak combat effectiveness.
After all, the ones responsible for blocking are Ming Yuzhen, who has a certain ability to lead the army, and Deng Mao, a half-step heavenly man who has learned the art of war. The Liaodong Army, which only has an army of 20,000, wants to break through the encirclement.
Easy thing.
"Go down with the order and prepare to attack the city." Looking at the Zhuoxian County in front of him, Ge Rong immediately pulled out the sword from his waist and gave the order to prepare for the attack.
"No." Shentu Town, Liu Haitian and other generals responded.
Although there is only one county left in Zhuojun today, the defense system of this remaining county is very strong. In addition, there are Chang Yizhi who is good at defense and Zhang Renyuan who is brave and resourceful.
Even if there are only about 10,000 to 20,000 defenders in the city, it is not easy to break through it in a short time. It is for this reason that Ge Rong will personally command the troops to attack the city.
…………
[Ding dong, Ge Rong’s skill ‘Guang’an’ is activated;
Guang'an: Ge Rong's unique era name skill;
Effect 1,...]
Under the personal command of Ge Rong, generals such as Shentu Zhen, Pang Wan, Guan Ying, and Zou Bo assisted in the siege. The morale of the 50,000 Yellow Turban soldiers responsible for the siege instantly increased greatly.
At this time, the Yellow Turban Army was like black clouds pressing down on the city. Their powerful and surging momentum wanted to directly crush Zhuoxian in front of them.
"Surrounding three and missing one, it's another old trick." Zhang Renyuan said coldly, his eyes full of disdain. However, even Zhang Renyuan had to admit that although this method is very old-fashioned, it is very effective.
.
The term "encircling three and missing one" comes from the Guigu sect of various schools of thought, and his official term is "encircling the division must be que", which is the eight rules for using troops to fight listed by Sun Wu in "The Art of War: Military Struggle".
One of the principles.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! However, because the saying "Besiege three and lack one" is relatively easy to understand, many defenders of the city call it this way when facing this tactic!
According to the understanding of the Guigu School, besieging three buildings is a psychological tactic. Specifically, it means that when attacking a city, the city must not be surrounded to death, because if the enemy is deeply encircled and has nowhere to run,
If you see no way to survive, you will definitely fight to the death.
For this reason, the Guigu Sect has a wise saying: "If you want to make the opponent despair, you must first give him hope. This is called a besieging force."
Zhang Renyuan had long thought that Ge Rong would adopt such a strategy, so after Ge Rong immediately used it, he did not have any surprises and immediately made countermeasures.
He personally led the army to guard the east gate, while Chang Yizhi and Guo Yong guarded the south gate and north gate respectively. As for the west gate where there was no attack by the Yellow Turban Army, Zhang Renyuan asked Hu Ji to lead 1,500 people to guard it.
What if Ge Rong suddenly ordered someone to attack Ximen while the Han army was not paying attention?
[Ding dong, Zhang Renyuan’s skill ‘Bronze Wall’ is activated;
Copper Wall: A wall made of copper, unbreakable. Different people hold different effects. If you are on the same battlefield with the holder of the 'Iron Wall' skill and are in the same camp, you can trigger the combined skill 'Copper Wall'.
;
Effect 1: When leading the army in a defensive war, its own command level 3, force level 4, the morale, combat power, speed, fighting spirit and other comprehensive qualities of the entire army will be greatly improved;
Effect 2: When the entire army suffers more than half of its casualties, its own commander will gain an extra 1, and the entire army will gain 1 additional force; (Note: This effect can also be activated when in desperate situations)
Effect 3: When commanding all battles except city defense battles, one's own commander level 2, one's own force level 3, and the overall qualities of the entire army such as morale, combat power, and fighting spirit are partially improved;
Effect 4: When conducting an offensive battle, there is a certain probability of success. It can penetrate the enemy's defense loopholes and reduce its command attribute by one point. If the opponent's basic command is lower than your own, it can be reduced 100%;]
In the original history, in the first year of Jinglong in the Tang Dynasty, Zhang Renyuan was the general manager of Shuofang Road. He led a large army to resist the Turks. In the following year, he built the central, western and eastern surrender cities in the north of the Yellow River, expanded the land to the north for more than 300 miles, and set up beacons.
Wait for 1,800 positions to defend against the Turks.
After that, the Turks did not dare to invade south easily, Shuo Fang was safe and peaceful, the number of troops in the town was reduced by tens of thousands, and military expenditures were saved by hundreds of millions every year.
It can be said that Zhang Renyuan is not only good at defensive battles, but also not weak at all in offensive battles, so he awakened the defensive skill of Copper Wall.
[Ding dong, Zhang Renyuan’s skill ‘Bronze Wall’ effect 1 is activated. When leading the army in a defensive battle, his own command level is 3, and his force level is 4;
The current commander has increased to 98, the current force has increased to 93, and the overall morale, combat power, speed, fighting spirit and other comprehensive qualities of the entire army have been greatly improved;]
Faced with such a strong opponent as Ge Rong, Zhang Renyuan naturally did not dare to be careless and used all his firepower as soon as he made a move.
Chang Yizhi, who was stationed at the south gate, also chose to go all out.
[Ding dong, Chang Yi’s skill ‘Iron Wall’ effect 1 is activated, and during the city defense battle, his own command level 3, force level 4, the morale of the whole army, fighting spirit, combat power... and other comprehensive qualities will be greatly improved;
Chang Yizhi, commander: 94, force: 96 (1);
Equipment: Iron point steel gun 1;
The current commander level has increased to 97, and the force level has increased to 101;]
When Wang Yu arrived in Zhuojun, after summoning Chang Yizhi into the world, he guessed from his records in history that he had skills such as Bronze Wall or Iron Wall.
Therefore, he attaches great importance to Chang Yizhi, and it is precisely because of this that Chang Yizhi's career path has been so smooth, and now, the seeds Wang Yu planted a year ago can finally bear fruit today.
Copper Wall and Iron Wall: A copper wall and an iron wall are unbreakable. The owner of the 'Copper Wall' skill must be present at the same time as the general who has the 'Iron Wall' skill, and the defensive skills are activated one after another. This combination can be activated. People with different combinations must hold
Some combinations have different effects;
Effect 1: When fighting as a defensive party, as long as either one of the holders of the Copper Wall and Iron Wall skills is the main general, the main general will have a command of 3, the subordinates will have a commander of 2, and the force of the entire army will be 1. If the two are just subordinate generals,
If you defend the city, your general's command will be randomly increased by 1~2 points;
Effect 2: If one of the two is the leader, the greater the casualties of one's side, the greater the increase in combat power. When the casualties of the entire army reach 30%, the force of the entire army will be 1. When the casualties of the entire army exceed half, the entire army will
The military force of the soldiers is 1;
Effect 3: When acting as a defender, as long as one of the two is the main general, he can protect the soldiers and generals in the city, and will no longer be affected by any negative skills. If he goes into battle as a subordinate general, he can only protect the generals defending the city, and will not be affected by any negative skills.
Opponent's negative effects are halved;
Effect 4: During the city defense battle, the opponent's copper wall or iron wall skills can be sealed. If the enemy's copper wall or iron wall skills are used, and the attributes of the owner's general are one level higher than the highest one, they cannot be sealed.
Completely sealed, its amplifying effect can only be activated by halving;]
These two people are both good at defense. Now, under the powerful combination, the effect achieved is simply unimaginable.
Even if these two defensive skills are used alone, they are already powerful enough in defensive battles. Now, under Wang Yu's deliberate arrangement, they have formed a combination skill 'Copper Wall and Iron Wall', and its effect is
Even more terrifying.
If either one of the two takes the role of the defensive leader, he can get a three-point command increase. If it is just this, it is barely acceptable. What's more terrible is that the other person can also get a two-point command increase.
In addition, even if these two are not the main generals of the defending side, as long as they are on the battlefield and serve as a member of the defending side, they can still increase the commanding attribute of their own main general.
It's just that this amplification effect is not as powerful as the amplification itself.
Not only that, if any one of them worries about the general guarding the city, he can protect the entire army from any negative skill effects.
Even if you are fighting as a general, you can protect your own generals and halve the negative skill effects from your opponents. It is simply a versatile combo.
Especially, when more than half of our own army suffered casualties, their original skills increased the force of the entire army by a terrifying five points.
Among the skills that have appeared so far, except for Wang Chong's Iron Wall skill, when his soldiers suffer heavy casualties, they can increase the strength of the entire army by up to five points, but this has a big limitation, that is, it can only be activated once a year.
However, the combo skill of Iron Wall has no such restrictions, and the effect of this combo skill is 4, which is even more abnormal to the point of being outrageous.
That is, in a city defense battle, if the opponent has the copper wall or iron wall skill, as long as the opponent's strength does not exceed that of the defending general, he can successfully seal it.
Even if it exceeds the limit, its amplification effect can still be halved and sealed.
