"Come here!" Blinking his eyes twice and looking at Jia Xu's posture at this time, Meng Tian scratched his head with a speechless expression, turned around and walked out, calling his deputy general loudly as he walked.
"General!" The deputy general who had been waiting outside the tent immediately appeared in front of Meng Tian and said respectfully.
"Go and look nearby to see if there are lush woods or easy-to-excavate stone-earth hills!" Meng Tian waved his hand to the lieutenant general to get up, "Oh, that's right! By the way, I ordered someone to find some rounder rocks and send them to the catapult.
Go to the troops and let them adjust the equipment, I will use it at any time!"
"No!" The deputy general nodded, "General, everything you mentioned is ready!"
"What?!" Meng Tian was immediately stunned and picked his ears, "You said everything is ready?"
"That's right!" the deputy general looked at Meng Tian with suspicion and said, "General, the military advisor gave the order five days ago, asking me to take my brothers to prepare the things you mentioned. They are all in the logistics area now.
How about you go and have a look?"
"Let's go!" Meng Tian didn't hesitate and walked directly towards the logistics troops.
When he arrived at the place, he looked at the piles of tree sandbags in front of him and the moderately sized stone bullets in front of the catapult. Only then did Meng Tian understand that Jia Xu had been prepared for it! In this case, how could there be anything else?
What do you mean, just do it!
A fleeting moment passed by, and two days flew by.
An artificially made super-large earth mountain suddenly appeared on the outskirts of Jincheng, facing Jincheng far away across an open space and moat of nearly a hundred feet. During this period, Cheng Gongying naturally did not want Meng Tian to build this earth mountain. After all, fighting is not to prevent the enemy from doing what he wants.
However, the number and ability of Nai He's soldiers and horses were indeed not inferior to those of the Qin elite under Meng Tian's command.
If they were to defend the city, they could still suppress the elite Qin men under Meng Tian's hands with the help of the favorable geographical location and numerous city defense weapons. However, once Cheng Gongying had the idea of leaving the city to destroy the city, not to mention the rest of Meng Tian's troops, only those stationed in the city.
While watching with eager eyes, the three thousand golden fire cavalrymen with overwhelming arrogance gave Cheng Gongying a headache.
After repeatedly trying every means to raid and destroy, but without success, and instead losing thousands of soldiers and horses, Cheng Gongying had no choice but to give up. While watching the increasingly taller mountains of earth and buildings outside the city, he tried his best to
Look for ways to get out of the situation, and at the same time, always check your own defensive measures, check for leaks and fill in the gaps, and take precautions before they happen.
"Wen He, what do you think of this view!" Early in the morning, Meng Tian took Jia Xu, who had been staying in the camp for several days, to the built earth hill, and looked at the Jincheng Tower, which was basically visible at a glance.
, Meng Tian
He laughed and said, "That old boy Cheng Gongying still wanted to stop us, but he didn't even consider his own strength. If he hadn't led his people back into the tortoise shell of Jincheng, we would have torn them into pieces long ago.
Figure it out!”
"Not bad!" Jia Xu secretly rolled his eyes. He was too lazy to talk to Meng Tian, who was not serious when talking to him. He quietly took two steps forward and looked far into the distance, looking at the majestic landscape a hundred feet away.
Jincheng.
It has to be said that as Han Sui's home base for almost ten years, Jincheng can be regarded as one of the most prosperous places in the entire northwest. Even its defense is definitely a first-class fortified city comparable to Chang'an City. It can be said that
It is impregnable. If you really want to attack by force, you may only have a chance to break the city after suffering several times or even dozens of times of damage.
For example, Ma Chao led more than 30,000 Ma family elites to besiege Jincheng for seven days and nights without rest, but was stunned by Cheng Gongying, who only had seven or eight thousand troops at the time, half of which were soldiers of the wealthy families in the city.
They persisted until Han Sui's army came back for reinforcements.
Therefore, when the previous plan was laid out, Jia Xu had never thought about the option of storming. The previous treatment of Meng Tian was indeed mostly a joke. However, the construction of this earth mountain was indeed necessary.
sexual.
"Wen He, the catapults have been set up according to your instructions!" Looking at the thoughtful Jia Xu, Meng Tian walked up to him carelessly, slapped Jia Xu on his round shoulder and asked, "Are you and me now?"
Let me tell you how you plan to capture Jincheng, so I can prepare early!"
"Do you think I have the ability to destroy a general?" After moving his aching shoulder, Jia Xu looked at Meng Tian with a speechless expression, thinking in his heart, "You are obviously as steady as a mountain in front of others, why do you look like this when you talk to me?"
The image of a reckless man. Speaking of which, how did the mighty, calm and determined general when we first met become such a funny person?!"
"Eh! Wen He?" Looking at Jia Xu, who turned around and looked at him strangely, without any reaction for a long time, Meng Tian couldn't help but slap him again and shouted, while silently thinking in his heart, "Wen He's hand feels like this."
It’s getting better and better. I’ll think of a reason to take pictures next time! If it’s too frequent and obvious, I’ll definitely be beaten to death! Why don’t you restrain yourself?!”
"Stop!" After coming back to his senses and looking at Meng Tian's big hand that was slapping down again, Jia Xu shouted quickly, and at the same time jumped to the side at a speed that was far out of line with his size. At the same time, he noticed the flash of joy on Meng Tian's face.
Feeling regretful, he twitched the corner of his mouth, remembered it in his heart, and said calmly, "Let someone vote for it first."
"Okay!" Meng Tian, who was still regretting that he didn't take a picture of Jia Xu, quickly put away the look on his face, responded as if nothing had happened, turned around and shouted, "I'll take aim at everyone who comes! Don't waste it!"
"No!" A group of soldiers who were specifically responsible for the trebuchets responded at the same time. They then adjusted and fiddled with the trebuchets in full accordance with the trebuchet rules handed down to them by Ying Zige. After a long while, they all stopped at the same time.
Coming down, there were two strong men loading bombs standing in front of each trebuchet. One by one, they placed the round stone bullets of moderate size into the loading port of the trebuchet and waited quietly.
"Everything is ready!" When the preparations were complete, a captain came to Meng Tian and asked for instructions, "General, everything is ready, do you want to take action now?"
"Do it!" Although under Ying Zige's order, he has been leading this new type of slinging force for a long time, but this is the first time to actually use it. Even Meng Tian was a little dizzy at the dazzling preparations.
, but in front of his subordinates, Meng Tian was already so steady, resolute, and impressive. When he heard the question, he waved his hand casually and replied in a deep voice.
"Get ready!" After receiving the order, the captain yelled first, then waved his hand boldly and said, "Let go!"
