Eight Hills in the Eastern Jin Dynasty

Vol 4 Chapter 3163: Talking about offensive and defensive roads

   Liu Yu sighed softly: "I have never forgotten the tragedy of the city head two days ago. In order to win, we sacrificed Zhang Gang's old mother. This incident made me feel ashamed."

Wang Miaoyin shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Jinu, you can't think like this. Zhang Gang is an enemy after all, and her mother is also implicated by him. If you pity every enemy's innocent family, then Don’t you have to be fearful on the battlefield, and you can’t kill the enemy? Just like the people in this Guanggu city, just like these women..."

As she said, she stretched out her hand to point to those Xianbei women who were still dragging rice bags with difficulty and struggling to walk to the edge of the city wall: "These women are dead men, and only orphans and old people are left. This is how they will be released from the city. The people who moved rice, their current miserable situation was caused by us. We killed their men and trapped them in this lonely city. Do you want to apologize to them and feel ashamed?"

Liu Yu gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice: "No, as long as it is a war, there will be casualties, there will be such a tragedy, so that such a tragedy will never happen again. What we can do is quickly and thoroughly. To end the division of the earth, end the war, and restore peace to the people of the world, so some necessary sacrifices are also needed."

Liu Yu's eyes were shining, but his expression became extremely determined. He continued: "Even with Alan and her for many years, we have finally come to this point, even if it is tomorrow’s siege, face to face with her. I won’t be merciful when I fight in the ground."

   Liu Muzhi sighed softly and said, "Jinu, why do these Xianbei people fill the trench outside the city? Is it just to prevent the epidemic?"

Liu Yu was a little surprised. He looked at the open space that was filled in front and said, "Is there any other reason? There are many corpses and stumps in these trenches that cannot be removed. The root of the epidemic is like we want to bury all the soldiers who died in battle. The enemy's filling in the trenches is also used to prevent the epidemic."

Liu Muzhi thoughtfully said: "With the brutality of that black robe, for so many days before, regardless of the life and death of the people in the city, whether it is an epidemic or a lack of food, this time, we have become benevolent through the return of the corpse, you Don’t you think it’s weird?"

Wang Miaoyin's eyes widened: "However, the flatter the outside of the city is, the more favorable it is for the attacker, so that we can approach the city wall unimpeded. Those trenches were originally used to stop our attack speed. At the time of the siege, there were still antlers on the outside, the horses were rejected, and the iron brier was sprinkled on the ground. During the assault, we shot the organs and crossbows at the head of the city, and the casualties were heavy. Aren’t these all lessons? How could they do it for a bit? The corpse remaining in the ditch, just give up such a barrier?"

Liu Muzhi looked at Liu Yu: "That's why I find it strange to send slaves. Since we besieged the city, the Nanyan army has not been out of the city for a field battle. Last time we broke the Yan army in Linqu, but we did not eliminate all of them. Armored Cavalry, this time they closed the city without fighting. Is it possible that at a critical time, the armored Cavalry will slam out of the city and attack our siege troops?"

Liu Yu’s eyes were shining, and he shook his head. “It’s still impossible. The power of this armor lies in a full-scale assault. The impact of one or two horses, or dozens of horses, is not very useful. If it is a city wall, there are two thousand horses. The above war horses form a horizontal formation, assault across the board, it can be a miraculous effect, but how can they kill the cavalry directly when attacking the city? The gate is not wide, and the two thousand horses filed from the middle. It takes more than half an hour to enter, and our attacking forces cannot give them such a chance to line up."

  Wang Miaoyin’s show flow: "Then can they fight out from the city gate and line up to meet us before our army attacks the city?"

   Liu Yu smiled and said: "This back-to-city formation is a big taboo for soldiers. We are now blocking the outside of the city with a long enclosure. Even if they are arrayed, it is impossible for them to have enough space to break through the long enclosure."

"On the other hand, if we ride out of the city with tens of thousands of steps, even if our army does not take advantage of them to attack when they are out of the city, but waits for them to line up. This is less than five miles, crowded and crowded, and we use slings to attack the city. Carts and ballistas can carry out a one-sided slaughter of their army at this position, and they don't even have room for turning."

"If tens of thousands of horses rush out, it will only be useful unless it is a strong attack on our big camp, or if we have to find a high ground to set up a camp before we stand a siege, one city and one battalion will be the horns of each other. This is only useful. Now In this case, going out of the city is a suicide!"

Liu Muzhi smiled self-deprecatingly: "Perhaps, I'm so worried, maybe, it's just that these Xianbei people have to rush to haul up the food for the women outside the city. They were all transported into the city, and then the trenches were filled in to speed up the speed. After all, the corpses outside the city have been collected anyway, and these trenches have little effect."

   Liu Yu sighed: "Has Zhang Gang explained all the layout of the city head? Will they change their positions or dismantle those organs and killers during these three days?"

Liu Muzhi said: “It’s unlikely. When Zhang Gang designed these institutions, he designed them according to the size of the towers. UU reading www.uukanshu.com has many towers and sculls, which are specially designed to block the crossbows. If you change the location of the mechanism, such as the machine, the stone car, etc., it will not be easy to use. Moreover, in order to pursue the launch speed and reduce the shock force, many of these mechanisms are fixed at the head of the city, and it is very difficult to carry them. Even if it is demolished, there is no other place for resettlement. In my opinion, more than 80% of the agencies are unable to move."

   Liu Yu nodded: "It's so good, then can our siege weapons destroy these structures at the head of the city?"

Liu Muzhi smiled and said: "Some of the equipment Zhang Gang supervised us a few days ago. He deliberately changed the elasticity of the elastic rubber bands to keep a hand. If we use those trebuchets, we will not be able to hit the tower accurately. In the end, he used his true skills. Almost every trebuchet was adjusted personally. By tomorrow, it should be able to be adjusted. All siege equipment can directly attack the positions of those city head organs, or fire. Attacking, or using huge stones, I have formulated a sufficient plan, and within a day or two, I will be able to destroy all the defenses on the city’s head."

Liu Yu smiled slightly: "It seems that this kind of technology is the basis for our victory in this battle. We have a framework to win over 100,000 soldiers, fat man, please work harder, and hurry up and do the last before the siege. Check it out."

   Before his words fell, he only heard the sound of horseshoes, and Liu Zhong's voice appeared behind him: "Marshal, there is an emergency in the camp, please come back quickly!"
