Chapter 1520 Gan Ning refuses to fight
"Huh! Huh! Huh..."
"Bang!Bang!Bang..."
“…”
Under the county town of Juan County, more than 10 heavy trenchers mechanically threw out big whistling stones and smashed them into the city tower at the south gate of the city, making waves of collisions, stirring up pieces of gravel.
After the heavy catapult, a large number of Mohist crossbow tools were placed there. Although they did not attack, they were still like a group of beasts with their mouths open and their fangs leaked. As a backup method, they could choose people to kill them at any time.
In the distance of the south gate city wall, a general wore soft silk tassels on his head, bright silver halberds on his shoulders and backs, and a carved dragon-painted thrush bow hanging around him. He hung his body with colorful python robes. His body was as bright as a silk silk. His body was light armor and most of them were golden, which only protected the key parts of the upper and lower parts.
This person is Gan Ning, the general of Jinfan. He has a different preference for clothing, especially his glorious and colorful equipment. This is why he and his subordinates became the "Jinfan Thieves".
It would be fine if Gan Ning dressed up this time, but the most important thing is that he also wore large dark sunglasses, which made people laugh a little. This style felt a bit inconsistent, at least it felt like this when Yang Rui saw it before.
Yang Rui has also discovered a rule, which seems to be fulfilled in reality. Several NPC characters like sunglasses. The girl with big sunglasses in the past - Diao Chan and Gan Ning, who are in front of him, all belong to this ranks. However, one likes to wear sunglasses offline, and the other is like this, both offline and online.
Of course, there are also people who like real-world clothes, among which Cai Yan, Wei Xiuer and others belong to this ranks, especially Cai Yan also likes professional suits, which makes Yang Rui stunned by this woman who has always been well-read and gentle and virtuous.
However, this kind of props produced in the game do not have special attributes, and there will be no bonuses in attacks, defenses, etc., and it is just good-looking.
"Report to the general that the envoy sent from Ximen in Juan County was sent to challenge the general in front of the formation, so please tell us."
During the continuous attacks of heavy catapults, a consignee soldier stepped forward to report to Gan Ning.
"No!"
Gan Ning pushed his sunglasses and replied simply, sitting at the horse almost moving.
Before, when Gan Ning and his subordinates had just arrived at the city, an envoy had sent in Juan County to reconcile with Gan Ning, so he was naturally rejected by Gan Ning.
Now that the other party saw that it was too soft, he changed to a single-handed fight in front of the formation. If he wanted to resolve the crisis in front of him at the smallest cost, this little thought could not escape Gan Ning's eyes.
It is worth mentioning that refusing to fight one-on-one in front of the formation will generally cause morale to decline, unless it is completely advantageous and there is no need to fight one-on-one. For example, Yang Rui's Gan Ning Army is like this.
The total number of troops in Ganning was more than 50,000, which was naturally advantageous compared to the 20,000 to 30,000 defenders in Juan County. And they were in the process of siege with advantage. Even if Ganning chose to refuse to fight the side in a single battle, it would not affect morale.
And even if Gan Ning challenged and won, will the Cao army defending troops in Juan County give up resisting? The answer is obviously impossible, at most one or several generals will be lost.
In fact, according to Gan Ning's previous temperament, he might have confiscated the guys, but before he was assigned to command the troops, Yang Rui had explained that the capture of Juan County should be a labor-saving method, only for the purpose of seizing the city, without caring about deserters or the like.
The deserters were naturally handed over to the vanguard mobile cavalry department to deal with. Yu Jin's 100,000 cavalry were not vegetarians, which means that what Gan Ning needed to do was to drive out the Cao Cao guards in the county town of Juan County.
Therefore, after Ganning arrived at the county town of Juan County, he only had the army outside the south gate and did not disperse more troops at other gates. The purpose was to "open the net on three sides" and give the Cao army the chance to escape.
"Huh! Huh! Huh..."
"Bang!Bang!Bang..."
“…”
After half an hour, the heavy trencher was still continuously throwing huge rocks, and the South City Gate Tower in Juan County had been cut off and pulled most of it. It is estimated that the entire South City Gate could be pushed down in a while, and the Ganning tribes could swagger into the city.
Cao's army in Juan County also began to panic at this moment. According to the investigation of the flying pet unit led by Ganning, Cao's army in the city was moving towards the other three gates and was preparing to evacuate.
The detailed grasp of military information also allowed Gan Ning to sit firmly on Diaoyutai and do some slow dispatch. After Cao Cao's troops in Juan County gave up the city, they still had to take advantage of the victory to pursue it.
Soon, Cao Cao's troops "break out" from the other three gates of Juan County. As soon as they left the gate, they fled everywhere. They did not attack the troops on the south gate as Gan Ning expected.
The people in Juan County were deserted and the building was empty. Gan Ning quickly commanded the troops to enter the city and occupied the key areas of the city. After a short rest, they divided their troops to pursue them for a while.
During this period, the results were almost destined not to be much, but at this time Yu Jin's vanguard cavalry department had already fought with Cao Cao's defeated army. The number of cavalry departments with the advantageous number of cavalry departments was against the defeated soldiers who were mainly infantry, and the result was naturally conceivable.
This is because Cao Cao's troops chose to escape from the beginning, otherwise Yu Jin's troops could have wiped out them completely. Even if the defenders of Juan County could escape the periphery of Yu Jin's troops, they were only a few of them.
"Report to the King of Donghai, General Zhang Liao and Zhang Wenyuan, who led his vanguard cavalry to break into Zhongmu County, which was not strictly garrisoned. After a brief fight, he had already taken down the entire Zhongmu County...."
The first battle report Yang Rui received was not obtained by the Gan Ning tribe, but by the Zhang Liao vanguard cavalry department.
After hearing the news from Yusukan Bingwei, Yang Rui stood up and from the very beginning, Yang Rui ordered the three vanguard troops to be responsible for interweaving and cutting, destroying the vitality of Cao's army and blocking the circulation of various materials within its territory, rather than siegeing the city.
Unexpectedly, news of Zhang Liao capturing Zhongmu County came so soon. Yang Rui was really surprised when he heard this.
However, Yang Rui quickly sat back. Zhang Liao was a general with both bravery and commander skills. If it were not necessary, he would naturally not siege the city rashly against his intentions.
"Did General Zhang Liao say why he attacked the city?"
