Chapter 362

Ten thousand pieces, don't even think about it!

"Although this thing is good, the reason we were able to win today is all thanks to the lord's tactics!"

Lu Su on the side took a look at the bulletproof glass, and then returned to the main topic!

Using catapults to cooperate with infantry to harvest the battlefield!

They had never seen such a fighting method!

"Although this fighting method is good, it also has shortcomings!"

Guo Jia shook his head and looked at the catapults outside the city!

Those catapults are cumbersome and inconvenient to move!

The reason for building those small Wengcheng was just to avoid harassment by cavalry and archers!

Yuan Gonglu didn't know it the first time, so he suffered a big loss!

Next, it would be difficult to repeat today's victory!

"Don't worry, we still have things we haven't used yet!"

Taking a look at Yuan Gonglu's army, in the battle under the city gate, the troops Yuan Gonglu lost were only twenty thousand!

Next, there is still more fighting to be done on this Xia Qiu City!

Xuzhou, Guangling Commandery, Tangyi County.

"Report, the lord won a great victory in Xia Qiu City, defeating Yuan Gonglu's one hundred thousand troops!"

On the city wall of Tangyi, looking at the battle report from Xia Qiu that had arrived in a hurry, Taishi Ci couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief!

"As expected of the lord, ten thousand against twenty thousand, and he can still defeat Yuan Gonglu!"

Taishi Ci sighed, but his gaze couldn't help but glance at Sun Jian's army outside the city!

This Sun Jian army is really difficult to deal with!

However, fortunately, he only needs to drag the opponent down!

The battle in Xia Qiu City was not only known to Taishi Ci, but Sun Jian on the other side also received the news of Yuan Gonglu's defeat!

"Hehe, an army of two hundred thousand was defeated by Lin Yang's one hundred thousand troops; this Yuan Gonglu is really trash!"

After four generations and three dukes, occupying the Yuzhou region, and leading more than three hundred thousand troops, he still couldn't take down Lin Yang!

Sun Jian really felt sad for Yuan Gonglu!

"My lord, this time in the Battle of Xuzhou, I'm afraid we won't be able to win, the lord should make plans early!"

Zhou Yu was taken away by Lin Yang, and now Zhang Zhao can only barely serve as a strategist!

It's just that he is indeed not very good at planning!

The only thing he could think of was to sit and watch the changes in Jiujiang Commandery!

"If Yuan Gonglu wins, we attack Guangling!"

"If Yuan Gonglu loses, we take Jiujiang Commandery!"

After Zhang Zhao finished his suggestion, Sun Jian on the side also nodded!

He had the same idea!

Now!

Everything depends on who wins and who loses in the Battle of Xia Qiu!

Half a month later, outside Xia Qiu City.

"Kill... kill... kill..."

Accompanied by the shouting of the army fighting, Yuan Gonglu's army was also continuously attacking the catapults in the Wengcheng!

"Those who break the catapults will be rewarded with a hundred gold and promoted three ranks!"

As the battle became white-hot, Yuan Gonglu also encouraged the soldiers, letting his army continuously attack the Wengcheng!

Lin Yang, standing on the city wall, looked at the Yuan army with such an offensive and couldn't help but sigh!

"After all, the development is too slow, and the troops are too few!"

If Lin Yang had two hundred thousand troops at this moment, why would Lin Yang have to defend the city on this Xia Qiu City!

No way!

Ten thousand against twenty thousand, if they went out of the city for a field battle!

Even if Lin Yang had Iron Pagodas, Threaded-Steel Army, etc.!

But the victory or defeat was still an unknown!

When two armies clash, once the number of troops exceeds a certain value!

The role of a single type of soldier will be weakened to the limit!

Even the Jin people of the Song Dynasty, who exerted the Iron Pagodas to the extreme, mostly let the Iron Pagodas charge into the enemy's main camp at critical moments!

Defeating the enemy's main army, thereby causing the enemy army to be in chaos!

Iron Pagodas, hooked horses, destroy the Great Song, shake the world!

These twelve characters state the biggest shortcoming of the Iron Pagodas!

Without the side consumption of the hooked horses and the super high mobility, relying solely on the Iron Pagodas to charge one hundred thousand troops!

It is impossible to achieve that effect!

Lin Yang has no hooked horses!

So he must use this Xia Qiu City before the decisive battle to consume Yuan Gonglu's army as much as possible!

"My lord, if your development speed is slow, what face do other warlords have!"

Guo Jia on the side, hearing Lin Yang's sigh, couldn't help but curl his lips!

Lin Yang rose from the sixth year of Zhongping to the fourth year of Chuping!

In just five years, from a county magistrate to now owning two provinces, with four hundred thousand troops under his command!

With this development speed, he has already caught up with the Yuan Benchu and Yuan Gonglu brothers who have been developing for many years!

Didn't you see Cao Mengde, who had a higher official position than Lin Yang at the beginning!

Now he only has the Yanzhou region, and the troops under his command are not even half of Lin Yang's!

The reason why this Battle of Xuzhou is so difficult now!

It's just that Lin Yang's territory is too large, and the troops are insufficient for a while!

Yangzhou only has four commanderies, and Qingzhou has two commanderies that still need to be garrisoned!

Naturally, the troops in Xuzhou are not enough!

"Alas, Fengxiao, I just want to return a bright world to the world one day earlier!"

During this period, Xia Qiu City was at war, but there were still disaster victims pouring into Xuzhou!

Looking at those disaster victims who were not covered and had no food, Lin Yang also sighed that this chaotic world eats people!

"Broken, I broke the catapult!"

Just as Lin Yang and Guo Jia were sighing, in a Wengcheng below, with the help of ladders, the Yuan army finally broke into the Wengcheng!

A catapult, under the continuous attack of the Yuan army, was completely scrapped!

The Lin Yang soldiers trapped in the Wengcheng, at this moment, all gritted their teeth!

"For the lord, fight to the death and don't retreat, kill!"

The military officer guarding a catapult shouted, and the hundreds of people around him charged straight at the continuous Yuan army!

"Puff... puff... puff..."

For a moment, a small Wengcheng directly turned into a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood!

Looking at the soldiers who fought to the death and were still fighting for the Yuan army, Lin Yang had seen too much life and death, and also sighed in his heart!

He is not a saint; war will eventually kill people!

It's just that the more he sees life and death, the more Lin Yang wants to end this chaotic world!

"My lord, the remaining catapults won't last long!"

The Yuan army eventually had many troops, and after the first failure, the Yuan army also found the explosion to break the Wengcheng during this period!

The catapults in the Wengcheng, although powerful, have limited stone materials!

As long as they disperse, avoid the distance of the catapults, and enter the surroundings of the Wengcheng, the catapults will not be able to hurt them at all!

Relying on this method, the Yuan army broke through all the way, and under the Wengcheng, they had a hand-to-hand battle with Lin Yang's army!

As the battle situation became deadlocked, the catapults in the Wengcheng were also broken bit by bit!
