Chapter 377: The end of the war opens
The 300,000 troops in Jingzhou were advancing on both sides of the river and land, heading towards Linyuan. Among them, 200,000 troops headed straight for Linyuan City. From a high point, the crowd was dense, just like the tide.
"General Zhang Yun, my 200,000 army suddenly came to an end. Wen Pin's expression must be very exciting."
In Liu Pan's opinion, Wen Pin was a rebel general in Jingzhou. He was in a very happy mood to defeat Wen Pin.
"General Liu Pan, Wen Pin is very good at defending. Although we have 200,000 troops, we should not be careless."
Seeing that Liu Pan was a little restless, Zhang Yun immediately reminded that Jingzhou had failed in the previous few attacks. This time, Zhang Yun was very cautious.
"Zhang Yun, are you afraid of Wenpin?"
Liu Pan was a little unhappy. Zhang Yun's words just now were clearly showing the ambition of others.
"General Liu Pan, pay attention to your words!"
Liu Pan called out his name directly based on his identity, and Zhang Yun also had a temper. His eyes narrowed. Seeing that Zhang Yun was angry, Liu Pan directly turned his head to the side without any intention of bowing his head.
"Hehe" Zhang Yun suddenly laughed, attracting Liu Pan's attention. He then said: "Since General Liu Pan thinks Wen Pin is easy to deal with, do you have the courage to launch an offensive against Linyuan City first?"
"What's not to dare?"
Youdao means that people will not lose. Liu Pan won’t be able to breathe when he doesn’t steam buns, so he agreed casually.
"Okay, General Liu Pan really has the style of a general, Zhang Yun admires it!"
Zhang Yun smiled, not sure if he was really happy or gloating.
When Wenpin was in Jingzhou, he was at the level of a famous general. Although Zhang Yun brought 200,000 people, he dared not say that he would definitely break through the city defended by Wenpin.
First of all, Wen Pin has extremely high attainments in defending the city and has his own unique strategic vision and on-site command ability.
Secondly, the Xuanwu Legion of the Wuling Army is a rare elite force. With Wen Pin's deliberate training, it has become very good at fighting defensive battles.
Third, Wuling County is the rise of Wu Shun, and I don’t know how many methods I left here. The strong attack on Linyuan is definitely a scene of corpses and seas of blood.
Dongfang Qiang, Wen Pin, Guan Hai, and the three stood side by side. They were quietly waiting for the upcoming battle at the head of Linyuan City.
"All the soldiers obey orders, take their place, and prepare to kill the enemy!"
In the distance, the Jingzhou army had already emerged, and Dongfangqiang immediately issued a guard order.
The Zhuge giant crossbow on the city has been installed and is temporarily controlled by the soldiers of the Zhuque Legion. On an open space in the city, two rows of catapults stand, behind them are piled up with mountains of stone bullets. Next to it is burning hot turbulence.
With the order of Dongfang Qiang, the generals of Jingzhou who were sieging the city were baptized by the fire bomb as soon as possible.
On the head of Linyuan City, there were only the flags of Wen Pin and Guan Hai. In order to hide their strength, the Vermilion Bird Legion did not show the military flag, and the Dongfang Qiang general flag was not shown.
Seeing that the city was tightly defended, but only the flag of the Xuanwu Legion, Zhang Yun immediately strengthened his confidence, as he was a little worried.
"General Liu Pan, this first battle is a hard work."
Zhang Yun issued an order to Liu Pan as soon as an arrow from Linyuan City. The first time he tentatively attacked the city, Liu Pan took action.
"General Zhang Yun, just look at it!"
After saying that, Liu Pan faced Linyuan City and shouted loudly: "Listen to the people in the city, open the city and surrender immediately! Otherwise, after the city is broken, there will be no one left behind!"
This shout was nothing wrong, but Zhang Yun could touch his forehead when he heard it. The Wuling Army did not have the "record" of surrendering in the city, and Liu Pan's hard-working performance was in vain.
Sure enough, Linyuan City's response came. An arrow flew from the top of the city and shot straight towards Liu Pan. Unfortunately, the force was exhausted in the end and fell on the ground three steps away from Liu Pan.
"Soldiers, kill me! Those who wait for the city wall first will be promoted to the third level! Reward a hundred golds!"
Liu Pan was angry. The arrow that fell to the ground was a naked face at him. He made people surrender, but he didn't expect that the person was unwilling to pay attention to him and even shot an arrow at him.
"Kill~"
Under Liu Pan's command, 20,000 people besieged the city from three sides and attacked at the same time!
When Dongfang Qiang saw the Jingzhou army attacking, he was expected to be a test. Therefore, he did not use hidden power and only ordered the use of bows and arrows to suppress it. Rolling stones, wood and tincture oil prevented the soldiers of Jingzhou from approaching the city wall.
Both sides fought step by step, and neither of them used stronger power.
However, the Jingzhou army came to attack the city, and tried every means to test the limits of the Xuanwu Legion. Zhang Yun continued to send troops to join the siege sequence in the rear.
Feeling the increasing defensive pressure, Wen Pin couldn't help looking at Dongfang Qiang.
"General Eastern, have the enemy troops used Zhuge Bird Crossbow several times more than me?"
Wen Pin couldn't bear to lose too much from his Xuanwu Legion, so he asked Dongfang Qiang. As long as Zhuge Jubird was launched, he could immediately force the Jingzhou Army to retreat this attack!
"General Wen, hold on for a while. Zhang Yun's catapult cart and other large siege equipment have not yet been on the field, so the killing weapon must not be exposed in advance."
Dongfang Qiang said calmly that after experiencing the reconstruction of the legion, he knew very well that the losses of the Xuanwu Legion were completely within acceptable limits.
Dongfang Qiang's intention was very clear. Before the Jingzhou army launched a general attack, the secret weapons would not be used. As long as they were used, Zhang Yun would have a way to deal with the next attack.
Without Dongfang Qiang's consent, Wen Pin could only command the soldiers of the Xuanwu Legion to defend. With unity, Liu Pan finally failed to touch the city wall, left behind thousands of corpses, and chose to retreat.
A fierce and tentative battle ended like this!
The Jingzhou army retreated thirty miles to set up camps, and the tents of the 200,000 military camps continued for several miles. The scene was extremely spectacular.
According to a forest in Jingzhou Camp, Shi Zhongyu, the chief general of the Canglang Legion, was cat-chested here. Next to him was his deputy general Shamoke and more than a dozen smart soldiers.
"Young Master, Jingzhou Camp has a tight defense and no chance."
Shamoke watched for a long time and found that Zhang Yun arranged the camping matter very reasonably, but he did not give them a chance to attack the camp.
If the camp is forcibly attacked, the Canglang Legion will be trapped inside, and the gain will not be worth the loss!
"I'll call me general after I've said it!"
Shi Zhongyu corrected Shamoko's name again. Then he said, "The lord often said that opportunities were created by oneself, not given by the enemy. The enemy camp was well-organized and should not be forced. Come and have a look at it in the evening."
After saying that, he led the people out of the forest.
Dongfangqiang arranged for the Canglang Legion to fight guerrilla warfare, but did not give them a task. In this war, they were the most proactive and freest. As long as they had the chance, they could go!
However, Shi Zhongyu knew that he had to go out only when he wanted to be safe or if he had a great victory.
They are wolf from the forest and they need to find opportunities!
...
"General Zhang Yun, why didn't he send a catapult cart and a well railing? Do you think you can break the city by relying on a ladder?"
Liu Pan was very angry in Zhang Yunshuai's tent. He suffered a lot of losses in the battle just now. Although Zhang Yun kept sending people to join, he did not really make a big effort.
The catapult cart and the well railing of the rear army were useless. Liu Pan was very angry. He thought Zhang Yun was making jokes about his soldiers.
"General Liu Pan, don't be anxious. In the battle today, it can be seen that the Xuanwu Legion did not use all its strength. If there is only the Xuanwu Legion in Linyuan City, it will be almost the same. I will send heavy weapons to attack the city tomorrow!"
The angry Liu Pan did not make Zhang Yun give in, and he still made tactical arrangements according to his own ideas.
Under the attack of the catapult cart and the well railing, the Xuanwu Legion could not stop it. The suppression of the number of people in Jingzhou cannot be easily offset.
Zhang Yun's vision is very beautiful. If Linyuan City is really as he expected, then tomorrow's city will be destroyed, it will be inevitable.
