Seeing that Li Jing still wanted to argue, Niu Hong reached out and patted him: "Things are often not as simple as people seem on the surface. What's more, now we can't make the slightest difference, and we have no way of judging whether Yu Qingze is also like us.
Still have some strength left to wait and attack with reinforcements. Soldiers are not afraid of deceit, so we must be extremely careful."
Li Jing looked at the military formation that began to change in front of him in astonishment, and seemed to understand something.
Indeed, Han Qinhu had reserved a hand to plot against Li Yan, but how could we judge that Yu Qingze had not reserved a plot to plot against Han Qinhu? People's hearts are a tricky thing to figure out, especially on this ever-changing battlefield.
Even if Yu Qingze actually didn't have the strength to think so much, Han Qinhu couldn't gamble on the success or failure of the army.
"Liren, I will leave Qizhou City to you." Han Qinhu said in a deep voice.
"Don't worry." Niu Hong nodded slightly and took over the command of the siege from Han Qinhu. "Order the Thunderbolt Chariot to extend its bombardment forward, and the second team is preparing to charge into the city!"
Han Qinhu turned his head slightly and looked at Li Jing. He believed that his nephew should have reacted. Although Li Jing could definitely be called a young genius, he still lacked the experience related to the world of people and calculations.
"Which side do you want to follow?"
"The child is willing to follow uncle." Li Jing said hurriedly.
Han Qinhu shook his head: "Go and help your Uncle Niu."
Li Jing was startled for a moment, but seeing Han Qinhu's firmness, he could only agree.
Han Qinhu looked at Li Jing's back and shook his head slightly. This child is indeed talented, but it is this kind of intelligence that makes him stand out so easily. It is better for young people to move forward steadily. If you walk too fast, it will be easy.
Fall badly
In particular, although Li Jing is now familiar with many aspects of marching and formation, his basic skills in commanding and fighting are actually not solid. This is mainly because he has never participated in the bloodiest and most cruel battles as a grassroots general.
fighting.
Now Han Qinhu also had to let him see the cruel side of war. Compared with the battles in the wilderness where troops were dispatched and generals competed in strategies and formations, etc., this kind of siege war relied entirely on flesh and blood and perseverance.
Only then can the coldness of war be shown more directly.
Not all strategic goals can be achieved through ingenuity and skill.
Niu Hong was not surprised that Li Jing followed him. It seemed that he had already expected that Han Qinhu would do this. He just said in a deep voice: "Do you want to take a look in front?"
"Think!" Li Jing's original discouragement was immediately washed away by his enthusiasm for the war. He was extremely eager to join the battlefield, shout and attack together with the brothers.
This is what a young man should do!
"Come with me." Niu Hong nodded, "Let's go into the city!"
At this time, after being bombarded by thunderbolt chariots, large and small gaps had appeared on the city wall, and the city gate was swaying under the violent impact of the rushing chariots, and it seemed that it was about to be opened. Soldiers from both sides had already moved along the gaps in the city wall.
Sawing back and forth, layers of corpses were spread among the rubble and broken walls.
Niu Hong rode his horse through the battlefield in front of the city gate that was completely under the control of the Han army. The ladder truck that was ignited in yesterday's battle had burned and only a huge support was left. If you get closer, you can smell the strong smell.
The smell of burning. This smell was not just wood, but also human. Li Jing squinted slightly and could clearly see the corpses between the wood.
Most of these corpses had been burned into charcoal-black skeletons. Their mouths were wide open and their hands were raised high. It was obvious that at the last moment of their lives, they were trying their best to call their companions and escape.
Smelling the smell of barbecue in the air again, Li Jing couldn't help lowering his head and retched twice. Niu Hong reined in his horse and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay." Li Jing reluctantly raised his head.
"Spit it out if you feel uncomfortable. To be honest, when I first went to the battlefield and saw this scene, I was not as good as you." Niu Hong laughed.
An arrow whizzed past him, but Ushihiro didn't care.
There are a lot of stray arrows on the battlefield, and no one knows when they will be shot. This kind of thing is completely based on face, and there is no way to avoid it.
"Let's go!" But Ushi Hong didn't intend to stay here.
The banners of the Han army in front had crossed the gap in the city wall, and several ladder trucks also transported more soldiers to the city wall.
"Boom!" A loud noise came, and the city gate was violently knocked open, and more Han soldiers rushed in along the large passage.
Li Jing looked at the corpses on the ground left behind after the army swept into the city. He had never thought that the battlefield he saw would be like this. Corpses scattered everywhere, scattered swords and guns, it could really be called a mess. He
Subconsciously, he swallowed and said, "How many people will die?"
"To be a general, you must love your soldiers as much as your sons, and you must have a heart of stone." Niu Hong said calmly, "How many people have to die is not the primary issue that a general needs to consider. What he should consider is the result of killing so many people.
Is it worth it?”
Looking up at Qizhou City, Niu Hong laughed: "It's worth it now."
"Report, Yu Qingze has led a team of troops to camp around the government office and is still resisting!"
"Attack!" Niu Hong said coldly, "Don't leave them a chance."
Although Han Qinhu has an advantage in terms of military strength, no one can guarantee that Han Qinhu can defeat Li Yan, so he must first control Qizhou City. Seeing that Qizhou is lost, Li Yan will naturally lose his interest in fighting.
"Let's go and see how many points this Yu Qingze has." Niu Hong decisively led the horse away. But Li Jing, who was still thinking about the scene just now and Niu Hong's seemingly heartless words, heard the horse's hoofbeats.
Only then did Sheng come back to his senses and hurriedly followed.
The war I imagined before was a war for ordinary soldiers. And since I want to grow into a qualified general, and even strive to become a famous general, my vision cannot just focus on ordinary soldiers.
You can't be afraid of sacrifice, but make the sacrifice most worthwhile. This should be what Niu Hong wanted to tell himself just now.
At this time, it was three miles southeast of Qizhou City.
The Han army formed an array along a small river ditch that had dried up. This small river ditch was used for daily watering by people in the Guanzhong Plain. However, due to the long years of war and the displacement of the people, no one diverted water and dredged it, so it naturally became this
Look.
Li Yan came very quickly, and he also went through a long psychological struggle. At first, he wanted to resolutely rescue Qizhou, but because Han Qinhu almost went all the way to Qizhou non-stop, in Li Yan's opinion, Qizhou should support
It will take less than two days, so there is no need for rescue. Instead, it is possible to bring in the troops under your command.
