Chapter 483 Tuoba Yi Attacks Again
After a gust of wind and electric motor, the group returned to the city. Liu Xingnan couldn't help asking: "General, do you think Tuoba Yi will retreat to Ji, or continue to attack Tianjin?"
Wei Feng said without hesitation: "Tuoba Yi will never go to the King of Wei, nor is he so brave to attack my city. Therefore, tomorrow I will lead the army to Ma Shijin (now Lushun) to avoid it. Although Tuoba Yi wants to leave, he can't just leave by placing a camp. He must pack up his luggage. As long as he has any clues, Tianjin will immediately report to Ma Shijin!
Ma Shijin is about 700 miles away from Tianjin. The fleet is enough to return for two days and one night. After I got ashore, I chased Tuoba Yi with a light cavalry and stopped him. He would definitely hold on and ask for help from Zhongshan. However, Bai Yangze has already arranged the arrangement and ambushed 500 ships. As long as the troops from Hebei cross the river, they will be intercepted by our navy. In the face of the defeat of reinforcements, how long do you think Tuoba Yi can last?
Of course, what I hope most is that he will attack Tianjin, so there is no need to run too far, it will be safer and more confident to stop him. But I don’t know if you noticed it, I always feel that Tuoba Yi doesn’t want to leave.”
"After saying this, I noticed it." Li Zhu nodded, "General, when you mentioned that you were going to retreat, Tuoba Yi showed a little panic expression. It seemed that he really didn't want you to leave. Is there anything else?"
Everyone frowned and recalled Tuoba Yi's expression changes carefully. It seemed a bit abnormal, but they could not guess the reason. After a long time, Liu Xingnan said: "No matter what hidden truths Tuoba Yi have, in short, he is probably going to attack Tianjin. General, you have to be careful and don't show your strengths and let Tuoba Yi see the flaws!"
Wei Feng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will really cross the estuary of the Haihe River before I will go east while I am at night. Unless Tuoba Yi has the ability to go out to sea, he will definitely not be able to understand my whereabouts. Come, let's prepare quickly and leave immediately tomorrow dawn!"
"Abide by the order!" The generals agreed!
......
Early the next morning, under strict guards, Tianjin Beach was busy, and the camps were dismantled in an orderly manner and transported to the dock behind. People, horses, and various materials were also transported on board one after another. They were busy until the afternoon. The tranquility of the beach was restored.
Tuoba Yi was worried that Wei Feng would shoot back and kept huddled in the camp. After ten days, he was sure that Wei Feng had left, and then he used his army to attack the city. This day was June 10th!
Although it was still early in the morning, the sun that had just emerged was already spraying out a terrifying high temperature. The drums were loud in the Wei army camp, and a team of soldiers rushed out. Soon, nearly 50,000 siege teams were assembled, and they were deployed directly in front of the three walls according to the two virtual and one real!
The defenders on the front of the city were also ready for battle, and suddenly a general exclaimed: "General Jiang, what is that?"
There is also a super-large fortress-like siege equipment mixed in ordinary chariots, catapults and ladders. Its height is slightly higher than that of ladders, but its length and width are several times that of ladders. The front side is inlaid with iron plates as a cover. The left and right sides include thick raw cowhide covering the top, which is more than one layer, but three layers! There are about thirty in total, which is obviously targeted arrangement based on the powerful crossbow arrows of the Jin army!
"Hmph!" Jiang Xuan snorted coldly: "No matter what he is, it's just a sturdy thing. What we don't fear most is to attack the city. Even if we occasionally let the Taiwan stick the Taiwan to the city, it's nothing. We'll just be strangled by the mandarin ducks! The general set a deadline for us to hold on for up to half a month, and try to consume Tuoba Yi's vitality. Perhaps after this battle, most of you don't have to shrink into this small city. Hebei is very big!"
The soldiers around all showed excitement. After all, they had been huddled in a small town of five miles in Tianjin for two or three years, and no one could bear it. What's more, once Wei Feng conquered the entire Hebei territory, according to his old method of progressing his merits, as long as there were those who were willing to stay in Hebei, even the most ordinary soldiers could be promoted to the top, and the lower-level officers such as the ranks led some surrendered soldiers. Just as Wei Feng stayed in Jiaoguang, Xiangzhou, a considerable number of soldiers voluntarily took root in the local area, and these people were well placed.
In fact, this is what Wei Feng is happy to see. First, it can promote the flow of people, and second, not everyone can always maintain a strong sense of combat. In addition, some people are no longer as good as before due to injuries and other factors. Therefore, as long as they are not the main force of the elite, Wei Feng will generally allow them to voluntarily be sent to the local area as defenders.
The defenders are relatively relaxed. Many defenders in mainland cities will never marching and fighting again throughout their lives. Their responsibilities are nothing more than routine exercises, maintaining public order, arresting bandits, and rescuing disaster relief. The dangers are not too great, and they are equivalent to disguised retirement.
This is a policy that is extremely supported by the whole army, especially the low-level soldiers. After all, not everyone has ambitions, nor is everyone fierce in nature. If you fight for a few years, then have a stable meal and still have a market for a market.
If one group goes down, one group will inevitably come up. The army is always updating its personnel. It can not only transport fresh blood and discover new talents, but also avoid the rigid system and maintain appropriate competition, so that the army is always full of vitality!
Jiang Xuan had a lot of letters here, and similarly, Tuoba Yi was also more confident. Looking at the huge creature slowly moving forward, Tuoba Yi nodded and said, "It is no problem to block the crossbow arrows and stone bombs of the Jin army this time. Unfortunately, this thing was too difficult to build. Our army has only nearly a hundred aircraft in total. General Changsun, if it is released together, can you attack the other party's city?"
Changsun Fei thought, "I thought it would be better to test it first. After all, although the craftsmen were so amazing that they siege towers, no one had seen the effect. Moreover, General Wei has left. King Wei, you don't have to make a contribution to one battle. By the way, when it comes to General Wei, my subordinates want to ask, should the Hebei army gathered in Zhongshan be sent back to the cities?"
Tuoba Yi thought for a while and waved his hand and said, "Let it go for now. Gu Chen feels that Tianjin may not be able to break easily. This way, when ten days later, when the soldiers on both sides are exhausted, summoning the Hebei army to attack, which may have a miraculous effect!"
"Wang Wei Yingming!" Changsun Fei couldn't help but lit up!
Tuoba Yi smiled and stroked his beard and turned his eyes forward.
The battle ahead broke out soon after. From the perspective of Tuoba Yi standing on the arrow tower, he could clearly see ladders, rushing cars, and trespasses were destroyed by fierce fire at the top of the city, and countless soldiers were killed by arrows, but he didn't care about these. He cared about the thirty siege tower cars!
These big guys acted slowly, and each of them required hundreds of people to burrow in the car to push them, which made people secretly anxious. There was no way. If they were big, they had to sacrifice flexibility, but their strength did not disappoint Tuoba Yi. The giant arrows and stone bombs bombarded each other. Although some could not resist the collapse on the spot, they could not reach the city safely as if they were as fast as the ladder rusher. Tuoba Yi counted carefully and only four siege tower cars were destroyed on the side of the city wall he was facing!
As the main attacker, twenty aircraft were arranged!
Tuoba Yi also saw that as the distance approached, the soldiers in the siege tower car began to shoot arrows at the top of the city!
Although dozens of arrows are not very effective, no matter what, this is also a good start!
"King Wei, look, you're attacking the city!" Changsun Fei suddenly shouted in a trembling voice!
"Okay!" Tuoba Yi hit hard with both fists, his face full of excitement!
Although two more collapsed, Tuoba Yi ignored it. His eyes were all focused on the top of the city and the other fourteen that were about to be attached to the top of the city. Seeing a soldier flying up, his heart also raised tightly!
There were obvious shouts of killing in the small areas on the top of the city. The stone bullets, giant arrows and the crossbow arrows that were as dense as locusts were almost stopped. At this moment, it was not only Tuoba Yi, but everyone on the arrow tower opened their eyes to the maximum without blinking!
But what disappointed them was that not long after, the shouts of killing gradually stopped, and the firepower on the city was pouring out again!
"Oh~~" Tuoba Yi sighed and said, "There are too few people attacking, otherwise this would not have been the case."
Changsun Fei said without rushing, "King Wei, this is just a tentative attack. He did not originally have the intention to defeat it in one battle. Now the siege tower car has obviously achieved results. Next time, the rest will be concentrated and used to specialize in a city wall. How can the Jin army defend it? However, at this time, my subordinates asked King Wei to order the retreat and take a rest for a few days to attack again!"
Tuoba Yi nodded and shouted: "Ming Jin!"
"Bang bang bang bang~~" The sound of the gongs sounded, and the Wei army retreated like a tide. The big guys who were inconvenient to take them away were thrown under the city. After counting, nearly 5,000 people were killed in this battle, but it was far from beyond Tuoba Yi's psychological limit. In order to capture Tianjin, Tuoba Yi was ready to reduce his staff by half!
Five days later, a large number of troops were gathered in front of the Wei army again, and more than 60 siege tower vehicles were slowly approaching among various siege equipment. Unlike the previous time, there were a large number of siege infantry, some pushing shields, some holding shields, and some carrying stairs together, showing off their performances in one battle!
Jiang Xuan's expression was a little calm and he snorted coldly: "I didn't expect Tuoba Yi to be so anxious. The general's original half-month period seems to be ahead of schedule. People come, go to Ma Shijin to report the message quickly, and then say that Tuoba Yi launched the general attack!"
"As for order!" Several soldiers hurried away. Soon, a fast ship pulled his sails and sailed away from the dock.
Chapter completed!
