First Minister of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 285: Chang Yuchun's post-war summary

Chang Yuchun is a top-level warrior, but just being brave and invincible is not enough to be famous in the world. Because those who only know how to fight and rush, will definitely not survive a few battles, and even if they are lucky, it is difficult to rise to a high position.

There is a clear record in history that Chang Yuchun used Lu Gong to break the city. Obviously, this is a brave and resourceful person. Of course, ordinary people pay more attention to Chang Yuchun's fierceness, which is reasonable, after all, he is really powerful.

But when he needs to use his brains, Chang Yuchun is also not bad.

He pressed the long knife in his hand and watched as the wall of the car was connected, the catapult entered the fighting position, but there was no movement in the city, with his eyes closed and waiting for the hammer, Chang Yuchun couldn't help shaking his head.

Is there any reason why you can't stand it?

Anyway, send a few people to harass me, so that I can see your details!

Seeing that there was no movement in the city, Chang Yuchun felt a little uneasy.

This man in the city is either a prodigy who uses soldiers and is more powerful than himself, or a fat pig with no use, who only knows how to be beaten... No, he is not even as good as a pig. After all, the wisdom of a pig can still give you a bite!

"How much ability is there, you will know soon!"

"Let it go!" Chang Yuchun decisively ordered, and the trebuchets of the Zhu family began to show their power.

To tell the truth, this kind of battle is very boring. It is nothing more than the constant firing of stone bullets here, projectiles weighing 150 pounds, constantly drawing beautiful arcs, smashing into the city wall, or smashing into the city. Occasionally, some people crossed the city wall and fell inside, but only a small number. .

The city wall in front of you is made of rammed earth and covered with masonry structure. In the current situation, it is already a fairly solid city.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Zhen has the capital to close his eyes and ask for a hammer.

But the town soon noticed the anomaly.

Zhu Jiajun's trebuchet is powerful, and every time it falls on the city wall, it will bring a violent shaking feeling, as if the earth under his feet is turned upside down.

It doesn't matter, many of the blue bricks covered outside were cracked or even dropped.

The city tower was also smashed in half by a stone bomb, and the walls were broken, so it was terrible.

Lu Zhen was terrified. Obviously, the catapults of the Zhu family's army were more powerful than the return cannons of the Yuan army. If it goes on like this, the Jiangyin City Wall will definitely not be able to hold it.

What exactly?

Shouldn't it be time to ask King Cheng for tactical guidance?

While Lu Zhen was hesitating, suddenly Zhu Jiajun's trebuchet stopped.

The soldiers in charge of the observation hurriedly reported to Lu Zhen that the Zhu family's army dispatched siege troops and killed them.

Lv Zhen was startled, and quickly ordered the soldiers hiding under the city wall to hurry up to the city. These people received orders, some who rushed to the city, and some who carried bows and crossbows, ready to attack the Zhu family's army.

However, when they rushed up, they found a surprising scene. The Zhu family army did not attack the city at all, but launched many unicycles from the Zhu family army.

These wheelbarrows are tied with sacks, bamboo baskets, filled with stones and sand.

The soldiers of the Zhu Family Army rushed to the moat at the fastest speed. After pushing the car in, they quickly turned around and ran away.

A wheelbarrow filled with gravel works very well. It only takes a dozen or so to fill up a large area.

The subsequent soldiers also carried the poles, filled the vacant places with bags of sand, and then quickly retreated. After just one round, it filled a quarter of the moat.

Zhu Jiajun's tactics were finally revealed.

Using the trebuchet as a cover, slammed the city head, and quickly filled the moat by taking advantage of the chance that most of the defenders avoided the trebuchet.

This kind of tactic is definitely not magical, and even a little simple. But it was just so simple, that Lu Zhen was helpless.

First of all, he couldn't solve the trebuchets of Zhu's army, and secondly, he couldn't let the soldiers run into the city to shoot Zhu's army under the threat of stone bullets.

In short, there will definitely be such a little time difference.

And what Chang Yuchun is looking at is this time difference. If there is a way, he wants to go. If there is no way, he will be honest and let me get closer to the city.

Lu Zhen was really helpless, repeating this process all day. It's not that Lu Zhen didn't struggle. For example, he asked the soldiers to prepare some bows and crossbows on the city, so they didn't have to pull them off. When Zhu's army's trebuchet stopped, they immediately went up, picked it up, and shot it violently.

But what surprised Lu Zhen was that the Zhu family army not only had stone bullets, but also gunpowder packs and even fierce kerosene.

These things, mixed with stone bullets, slammed into the city, not only did a fire start on the city wall, but because the gunpowder pack was light in weight and had a long range, it could even cross the city wall and fall into the city, explode and set off a fire.

Lu Zhen was made to lose her temper, so she had to arrange for a waterwheel to be on alert at any time.

Just like that, the moat has been mostly filled.

Looking at this trend, it is not far from completely filling the moat.

Lu Zhen was terrified. He felt that things were not so simple. If it was just an ordinary siege, there was no need to fill the road so wide.

Moreover, the use of a wheelbarrow, the roadbed is very strong, and large-scale siege equipment, such as goose carts, crash carts, shield carts, etc., can approach the city wall.

Then there was the terrifying hand-to-hand combat. Back then, in Gaoyou City, they suffered a lot.

Someone must be sent out to destroy the road paved by the Zhu Family Army.

Back then, he had led troops out of the city, and there was no problem.

"Pass my order, anyone who is willing to go out to fight in the city will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver! In addition, in addition... the official is promoted to three levels!"

Under the reward, there must be a brave man.

Sure enough, three hundred warriors were selected from the city.

Carrying a bowl of wine, Lu Zhen said to the crowd, "Brothers, at the beginning, I was ordered by King Cheng to go out of the city and kill the Yuan army, which is what I am today. You... work hard!"

Lu Zhen drank a bowl of wine with the big guy and left in a hurry.

Three hundred people, wrapped in leather armor and armed with sharp knives, descended from the city wall... They moved very lightly, for fear of disturbing the Zhu family's army. After coming down, wading across the moat, ready to start.

But at this moment, suddenly there was a vast expanse of white things, and when it was about thirty steps away, these things screamed!

It's a flock of geese!

It turned out that Zhu Jiajun drove the geese to the filled area after dusk, and let them act as guards.

When he heard the goose croak, Wang Bi jumped up in his armor, carrying a long sword, and rushed out.

The soldiers in charge of guarding quickly threw themselves into the fighting position. The bows, crossbows, and gunpowder packs all attacked in the direction of the goose. Before the three hundred warriors who attacked had time to react, they were beaten by their parents and screamed. The bodies were scattered and miserable.

As for the Zhu Family Army, there were only more than 20 geese that were wounded and sacrificed in the battle. Wang Bi said that we suffered heavy losses!

After the sneak attack failed, Lu Zhen was also stunned for a long time... What happened? When I was in Gaoyou, I tried Bailing's method, but why didn't it work?

These people are far worse than them.

When the sky brightened and the siege battle resumed, the soldiers in the city suddenly discovered that the passage that the Zhu Family Army had paved out was wider and farther, not only that, but there was also a layer of wood on it!

It turned out that the Zhu family's army resolutely filled the moat by chasing and killing the sneak attack soldiers and horses last night.

Today, a flat road leading directly to Jiangyin City Wall has come out.

Lu Zhen's heart skipped a beat, and when he looked behind the wall of Zhu Jiajun's car, he suddenly swayed and almost fell!

It turned out that Zhu Jiajun also moved in several behemoths at night and listed them in front of him.

Judging from its 30-foot-long volume alone, it is undoubtedly Lu Gongche!

Alright, one night, it was another night of ambushing the soldiers and horses in the city, filling the moat, and transporting the Lu public car.

Chang Yuchun had a smug smile on his face. Thanks to the fact that the city sent troops to attack, he was able to take advantage of the chaos, otherwise, where would he be silent!

Therefore, Lu Zhen is bent on dying.

In this case, the city is broken today!

"Give me all the gunpowder packs, hit me hard!"

The trebuchets really did their best, and they were going to change the protagonist soon. They seized all the time and performed hard.

The city was full of fire and smoke.

Under the violent explosion, bricks flew all over the sky.

The defenders in the city were already terrified and heartbroken.

Before the trebuchet was over, the three Lu buses were pushed out.

More than 20 feet tall, 30 feet tall, hundreds of soldiers, and hundreds of oxen... together constitute the most massive siege weapon.

Lu Zhen's heart was broken, and she hurriedly ordered, "Use the bow and crossbow, shoot! On the rocket!"

He shouted desperately, and the defenders did follow their orders, but Lu Gongche of the Zhu Family Army was not so easy to deal with.

Not to mention, it was covered with five layers of cowhide. On the outside of the cowhide, thick mud was brushed, and there was also an iron plate. The bow and crossbow could not shoot through, and the rocket could not be ignited.

Looking at other methods, it doesn't seem to work.

You can only watch... these behemoths, UU reading www.uukanshu.com approaching the city wall, maybe the city will be broken in the next second.

Lu Zhen finally gritted her teeth and seemed to remember that he was one of the eighteen poles back then. It is not so easy to capture Jiangyin in my hands!

Lu Zhen mustered up his courage, pulled out his weapon, held it high in the air, raised his arms and shouted, hoarse, greeting his subordinates, and rushed forward to meet the Zhu Family Army!

Just as Lu Gong's car hit the city head, the front door opened, and the soldiers inside rushed out and collided with Lu Zhen. Several soldiers were injured in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, the subsequent soldiers resolutely filled their positions, and the two sides launched a fierce competition around the city head. Lu Zhen fought hard, gasping for breath. He gradually felt the fire in his chest, the knife in his hand became heavier and heavier, and his body became weaker and weaker.

Suddenly an armored soldier rushed in front of him, he hurriedly slashed a knife, but the person on the opposite side did not dodge or dodge, using the same posture, at the same time, he returned the knife, the weapon collided, and the sparks shot in all directions, Lu Zhen took a few steps back. .

On the opposite side, Zhu Jiajun's eyes were shining, as if he saw the prey, he rushed forward again. This man's ferocity made Lu Zhen quite horrified, as if he had seen himself in the past... Lu Zhen was afraid, and kept retreating, while Wang Bi led his subordinates to the city successfully, and then expanded the victory, occupied the city wall, and opened the city gate.

"I haven't shot yet, you are finished!"

Chang Yuchun was quite disappointed, and then he suddenly remembered a terrible thing. Zhu Jiajun needed to write a summary of the battle. How did he win this battle?

"Except for an unsuccessful sneak attack, the defenders never took the initiative to charge, and every time they put on the air of being beaten. The slowness of the action and the inactivity of the action were beyond my expectations..."
