Chapter 297 New-style siege

Feng Zhou returned to the camp all the way, feeling very energetic and reprimanding the Fang chieftain. He had just shocked the Wei army in Luoyang, but began to inspect the Mangshan military camp again. At this time, he put out all the emperor's guard of honor, opened the way with a yellow ax and a red dragon flag.

, Qingyou Banner, Taichang Banner and other Emperor's Parade Banners followed closely behind, and the rest of the imperial guards with swords, axes, axes, axes, knives, spears, etc. guarded both sides.

Feng Zhou changed into his regular clothes, wore a dragon robe, red socks, a winged crown on his head, and a golden armor. He rode on a white horse. Everywhere he passed, there were shouts of "Long Live the Mountain". One hundred thousand Han troops were extremely excited and shouted loudly.

, it really made the sound reach into the night sky and shocked the whole world.

The Han army camp was suddenly filled with joy. Feng Zhou had always been simple and rarely engaged in such scenes, but his divine power was in the hearts of every Han soldier. He had been away for four or five days, but he had already captured King Rencheng of the Wei Dynasty and defeated the opponent for five days.

Wan Qiangjun is really majestic.

Among the Han army, they had great respect for the invincible commander Feng Zhou. Although they were still trapped in the isolated city at this time, their morale was greatly boosted by the emperor's visit to the camp. Many veterans were beaming with joy and spoke to the new recruits.

He pointed his fingers and explained Fengzhou's majestic events back then. He could not help but exaggerate a bit in his words, which made all the recruits dumbfounded and amazed.

Waiting for the order to seal the boat, there will be extra meals and wine in the camp today. Each camp is erupting with thunderous cheers and shouting "Long Live Long Live". In contrast, the city is gloomy and mist, and morale has been greatly depressed. Although Sima Yi has great talent and strategy, and tries every means to appease him, the general situation

In this case, we can only do nothing.

It can be said that Feng Zhou showed off his power under Luoyang City and did not attack the city, but the morale of the troops in Luoyang City was already in chaos.

Some time ago, General Sima Yi said that the Emperor of the Shu Han Dynasty rushed to Hulao Pass with only a thousand soldiers and horses, and he must have gone there and never returned. Who would have thought that he would destroy 50,000 enemies in one battle, and almost all the troops in Hebei Province would be defeated?

Already.

It only took Cao Cao more than 20 years to unify the north. Even if Ji, You, Qing and other places work hard to develop, how many people will they have? There are only two to three million, how many young people can be extracted from these people?

It can be said that except for Luoyang, Yecheng and Wancheng, the Wei Dynasty has almost no soldiers to fight.

Therefore, Feng Zhou's mere appearance demoralized the Wei army, and allowed the generals of the Wei army to see the powerful combat power of the Han army.

Besides, the Shu Han had occupied Yongliang in Jingyi and were in great momentum. Even if they held back 100,000 Han troops, they still had hundreds of thousands of troops in the rear, and the same was true in Jingzhou. And the Wei army had already exerted all its strength.

It was only with the help of the fortified city that they were able to hold back one-third of their strength.

The Han Dynasty has ruled the world for four hundred years, and the orthodox concept of the Han Dynasty has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Emperor Liu Chan of the Shu Han Dynasty inherited his father's legacy. Like Emperor Guangwu, he was the great-great-grandson of Emperor Xiaojing. Now he is marching into Luoyang to rebuild the Yan Han Dynasty. It can be said that he is righteous and confident.

The name is justifiable, but the Wei army who occupied Luoyang looked more like rebellious officials and traitors.

Not only that, Emperor Liu Chan of the Shu Han Dynasty was even more powerful in martial arts, unmatched by anyone.

How could the generals in Luoyang not know who would belong to the world in the future? As a result, the Wei army, which was still clinging to the city on the surface, had its morale in chaos, and many generals planned to surrender at any time while preserving their strength.

Seeing that the Wei Dynasty, which had only been established for less than a few years, was just like the new dynasty back then, the building was about to collapse. It was inevitable that the middle and lower-level generals would have various changes in their thoughts.



Although Feng Zhou was aware of the changes in thinking in Luoyang City, he would not rashly use the surrenderers to attack the city.

After all, the opponent's guard is Sima Yi.

Who knows whether it was a true surrender or a ruse, Feng Zhou was preparing to attack the city in his own way.

This approach is very immoral.

In the past, he did not have many prisoners in his hands, and he was reluctant to harm ordinary people. Now he has 30,000 Wei army prisoners in his hands, all of them young and strong. Of course, he cannot let them eat and drink for free.

Three days later, Sima Yi was in the city thinking hard about how to defeat the enemy. Suddenly, a message came to report that the Han army was preparing to attack the city.

Sima Yi had no choice but to lead his generals to the north gate and couldn't help but gasp.

On the Han army's position outside the North Gate, 30,000 military prisoners were driven outside Xiamen with whips wielded by the Han army. Each Wei army prisoner had a sack or piece of hemp cloth in his hand, and they were opening their bags under the intimidation of the Han soldiers.

Bu loaded up the soil from Mang Mountain and was driven together again, heading towards Xiamen on the north side of Luoyang City in a chaotic manner. The cries of the 30,000 captives were loud, but the shouts of curses and the sound of whips from the Han army never stopped.

Although they are all Han people, benevolence and righteousness must be avoided in military affairs at this time. As the saying goes, benevolence does not control the army, and righteousness does not manage finances. The attack on Luoyang is the top priority, so naturally we must make good use of these Wei army prisoners.

"Is this driving the Wei people to attack the city?" The generals of the Wei army on top of the city were all dumbfounded. They were caught off guard for a moment. In nervousness, one of the generals hurriedly asked Sima Yi: "General, what should we do? What if Shu

They are driving my Wei people to attack the city, should we let go of our arrows?"

"Shoot the arrow! Why don't you shoot it?" Sima Yi shouted without blinking: "If we are soft-hearted and don't shoot the arrow, then Luoyang City will be doomed!"

"But...but those are my subjects of the Wei Dynasty. I think there should be relatives and friends who are guarding the city!"

Some generals said.

What he said makes sense. The current population of the Wei Dynasty is at most five to six million, and the number of troops inside and outside Luoyang City alone accounts for 120,000 to 30,000, accounting for one-fifth or sixty-sixth of the total population. Among so many people, there must be some

People who know each other.

Sima Yi said angrily: "They are our people, but once Luoyang City is destroyed, not only us and the army and people in the city will be destroyed! None of them can escape! Liu Chan said how to deal with everyone, don't you know?"

"

Liu Chan said he wouldn't let your Sima family go, but he didn't say he wouldn't let us go.

Many generals thought in their minds.

But of course they didn't dare to speak out, so they had no choice but to keep silent and didn't dare to say more.

Sima Yi loudly ordered: "Send the order to the whole army, prepare trebuchets, and prepare bows and arrows. Once someone under the city rushes into the range of the trebuchet of 300 steps, throw it immediately! If you get within the range of 120 steps, shoot the arrow immediately!"

"

The generals of the Wei army agreed together and quickly organized their troops to prepare bows and arrows, trebuchets, and rolling logs and stones.

In full view of the public, 30,000 prisoners of the Wei army were driven away by the whips, swords and guns of the Han army, and slowly walked toward Luoyang City, crying...

"Stop!" Just when these captives were about to despair, the first Wei army prisoner walked against the earth bag and walked to a position 350 steps away from Luoyang City. The Han army general waiting here immediately stopped him from continuing.

Move forward, point at the ground and shout: "Pour the soil here, go back and fill it up again!"

"Just pour the soil here?" The Wei army prisoner felt like he was being pardoned. He could hardly believe his ears. He quickly poured the soil in the sack under his feet and happily ran back to fill it with soil again. The same was true for other Wei army prisoners.

They all transported the soil to a distance of 350 steps from the city wall, dumped the soil, and then turned back to load the soil again. No common people were forced to go within the range of the trebuchet 300 steps from the city wall.

He was shot to death by Luoyang City defenders.

Seeing this scene, the captives who thought they were dead naturally burst into joy. Thinking that they had escaped, they worked hard to move the soil in order to please the Han army. Sima Yi and the Wei army generals were unable to touch the two kilograms on the city wall.

I really don't know what kind of tricks the Han army is up to.

"Liu Chan is going to build a mountain of earth and attack us from a high position!" Sima Yi suddenly realized, and he already knew it in his heart.

The generals have been fighting for many years, and they have learned a lot about leading troops in battles and conquering cities and territories. At this time, they quickly understood.

The Han army was determined to attack from the north.

At this time, the generals of the Han army at all levels also understood the emperor's tactics. After deeply admiring the talents and strategies of the Han emperor, everyone performed their duties and worked even harder.

Three days later, Mang Mountain seemed to be three feet shorter, and outside the Xia Gate of the North City Gate of Luoyang, a three-mile-long earth mountain was aligned, and it was already higher than the Luoyang City Wall.

Before Tushan was completely completed, the Han army's trebuchets and Xiliang crossbowmen had already climbed up Tushan, preparing to attack Luoyang from a high position.
