Chapter 1664 If you can't fly, you can still escape
Li Cheng, who was looking at Xu Huai with his nose or eyes, heard Chen Xizhen immediately pay attention, and immediately turned around and asked: "Chen Daozi, this group of thieves sent by Xiao Tang is not what you or I expected. They are trying to attack the east waterway." They marched together, intending to attack with force, but in fact they intended to use the underground ditch and waterway in the south to kill the generals and enter the city. The plot was also foiled. Now heavy troops have been deployed here, not only strong bows and crossbows, but also several layers of water gates have been reinforced. , even if they were lucky enough to save their lives and some ships were lucky enough to enter the city, wooden stakes had been driven into the water channel in the city, and the archery towers, gates and battlements were built around the city. This group of thieves would definitely be unable to reach the shore, and they would have to die. In the water. Such an arrangement is airtight, but what's wrong with it? Chen Daozi looked at the offensive of this group of thieves and navy, but what's wrong with it?"
Chen Xizhen's eyes flashed with light, and he stretched out his hand to point down the city and said: "The method of surprise attack is to catch the enemy off guard. If Xiao Tang really wanted to take this place to kill the general and enter the city, he has already discovered that our army has already Make arrangements at the grassroots level, or continue the fierce attack regardless of life, and only try to break through the water gate gate, and then we can succeed. Otherwise, if we wait to strengthen the defense here, if we want to attack through the waterway, we will have no chance of winning. . Or perhaps the thief saw that this plan could not succeed, so he had no choice but to retreat and make further plans.
General Li, look at this wave of thieves and naval forces who have been hit by arrows and crossbows. They are struggling to hold on. It seems that they are not advancing or retreating. They are wasting their lives in vain. They have missed the opportunity and will definitely not be able to achieve anything. Why are they still here? How long will it take you to hang out here? What’s more..."
Chen Xizhen said, his expression was gloomy, his two long eyebrows were frowned tightly, and his eyes became more complicated when he was thinking, and he said: "What's more, Xiao Tang is originally the Xiao family of Zongcheng County, Daming Prefecture. He has many well-known thieves under his command, most of whom are natives here or who have been in Daming Mansion for a long time. The secrets of the city's defense are well known to Xiao Tang's thieves, but He must also be well aware that General Li and other generals from the Daming Prefecture's left-behind department are also here to guard and defend. General Li and I have been at war with Xiao Tang for a long time, how could we not know that he has many tricks? And Xiao Tang, Indeed, he is well versed in defending with the right and attacking with the unexpected. This guy wanted to avoid the weak and use the real, relying on the power of the Wei River to pretend to attack the east gate and cleverly seizing the water gate on the south side... But I always feel that Xiao Tang's use of troops seems to be wrong. You won’t just teach me to wait and see, but you will have other strategies.”
Li Cheng listened to Chen Xizhen's analysis, and his expression became more solemn. But just like Chen Xizhen, he was also vaguely aware that Xiao Tang wanted to seize the strategic location of Daming Mansion, and followed his previous method of leading troops to fight. Of course, the means must also be to set up an interlocking siege strategy. However, Chen Xizhen and Li Cheng still only figured out the enemy's general's plot when the two armies faced each other, and relied on the city's dangers to make plans. , no matter how you guess and predict, you will naturally not be able to see through the layers of arrangements that Xiao Tang made based on his status as a previous time traveler and a rough understanding of the evolution of the current situation...
"this......"
Xu Huai, who had been putting on a showy face when he arrived here with Chen Xizhen, was stunned when he heard this. Although he claimed to be resourceful, he was not like Chen Xizhen before. Both Li and Cheng had fought against Xiao Tang's troops. But he was unwilling to be left alone and seemed to have no idea. Xu Huaisui immediately laughed and said: "Although the traitors in Xiaotang are willing to use tricks, now with Chen Daozi and General Li under the command, the capable and good generals are heavily guarded." Barriers, will the thieves plan to escape? The money, food, clothing, armor, and equipment in Daming Mansion's warehouse are now complete, enough to meet the expenses. In my opinion, the thieves in Liangshan River are not willing to take the city by surprise, so they enter No, retreating is not the case. And we didn’t have a clear plan before? That Xiao Tang disobeyed the Song court’s will and went to Shandong and Hebei to fight. Sure enough, he was a treasonous traitor. Even the Song court would have to investigate sooner or later. , he made a desperate move and had to go north to open up the military prefecture. However, the Daming Prefecture controlled Heshuo and Jifu Eight Prefectures. The city was high and the trenches were deep. How could the thieves be allowed to break through it as easily as before?
The Liangshan thieves were restrained here. At that time, the nobles of the Jin Dynasty would command several groups of sharp troops to block the rear of the thieves. The disciples would not be able to respond to each other. The Song court must have had a long-standing rift with Xiao Tang, and Xiao Tang took advantage of the situation.
With the rampant violence, how could he still be stranded in Hebei with the main force of his troops? How could the several places of prosperity on Jingdong Road be kept for a long time? It is certainly reasonable for Chen Daozi to worry about the future, but in my opinion, it is not
There is no need to worry too much, Daming Mansion has high walls and deep chasms, and is heavily fortified. Not only is Wanyan Talan the noble man, but also commanding heavy troops to guard it. Xiao Tang had no choice but to attack the city by force, and he still doesn’t know how many thieves and soldiers will be lost.
After Chen Daozi and General Li have made arrangements, how can the thieves sneak into the city? Unless those guys have the magical power to fly into the sky and escape from the earth!"
When Chen Xizhen heard what Xu Huaijian said, he just forced a smile and nodded slightly, but he still couldn't help but secretly said: Just as Xu Hulin (Xu Huaicuiniao, whose pseudonym is Hulin) said, Xiao Tang is finally still
The army has arrived at Daming Mansion, and the culprit is our mortal enemy. How can we show any signs of neglect? We have done everything we should do...how can I feel so uneasy?
............................
According to what Xu Huai said, although the fierce generals and soldiers of the various tribes led by Xiao Tang did not have the magical power to fly into the city with two wings, they still had the ability to escape from the ground.
In an ordinary military state city, the surrounding area outside the city gates is mostly plains and wilderness. Once a large-scale army and horses approach, the sergeants guarding the city can quickly detect the warning when patrolling. However, the outer city of Daming Mansion stretches for 40 years.
There are two city gates in Duoli, east and south, adjacent to the guard and two rivers. However, the area in the southwest is not a vast plain, but a long and narrow hilly area. Under the lush shade of trees, there is also a team
The soldiers and horses of the team shuttled and sneaked. According to the terrain here, if a large-scale army and horses were led rashly to attack the city suddenly, not only would the watchtowers in the city be able to look around, but it would also inevitably arouse the vigilance of the defenders in the city. The gathered siege troops
Even horses could not climb over the towering city wall, which was more than four battles high.
However, the groups of rebel soldiers that advanced one after another, with their men and horses wrapped around their hooves, only shuttled and sneaked under the tree shades for a while, but one after another they seemed to disappear out of thin air, and their figures suddenly disappeared into a remote area covered by the tree shades.
.....
About half an hour later, in a remote area of the old city in the southwest corner of Damingfu City, where several shrines and Taoist temples were located, an area seemed to make a faint sound of mechanical action, and stacks of haystacks suddenly fell and rolled to the ground.
In one piece, the land below and the surrounding land mixed into one color of sand, gravel, and mud, and flowed in all directions. A dark blue wooden board was suddenly opened, and immediately several soldiers rushed to escape from the passage previously covered by the underground floor.
Born.
As more and more rebel soldiers emerged from the underground tunnels, the leader had already whispered and ordered his soldiers to disperse to warn sentries in all directions. Until Sun An, General Shan Shiqi also jumped out of the tunnel.
, just as Wu Zi waved his hand to brush off the dust covering his body, the leader of the Wu Rui Army immediately came to report: "The two brothers, the brothers who were looking at me in front, together with brother Li Zongzheng and the men led by him, were doing things in the city earlier.
, the brothers who looked at several underground tunnels met to respond. The Tatar traitors in the city did not notice that something was fishy here. Now, several soldiers and horses who sneaked into the city rose up together and seized the city gate. They could kill that person.
