Imperial Power Of Han Dynasty

Chapter 938

Although Gan Ning, Ding Feng, Zhu Huan and other generals ascended to the city to fight, the morale of the Xiliang Army has rebounded. However, in the Jiangdong Army, Xu Sheng and Ling Tong still led the Jiangdong Army to continue fighting. The Liang army is still dying and wounding.

Gao Chong stared at the deadlock above the city, frowning, and refused to relax. The battle above the city was not as smooth as expected. Although the Xiliang Army is superior in number, the morale of the Jiangdong Army is very high. Under the leadership of many brave generals, it resists the Xiliang Army, which makes the Xiliang Army continue to lose troops and replace generals, and Gao Chong is heartbroken.

Sun Tzu once said that siege is the next best thing, because siege is just to replace the city with the lives of soldiers. This is something that any clever commander can avoid as much as possible.

"Mingjin retreat!" Gao Chong said solemnly.

"The chief governor has ordered, Mingjin retreat!"

when!

Hearing the sound of gold ringing in his own formation, Gan Ning shook Taishi Cixu and shouted: "Retreat, don't fight with the enemy's forces, hurry down!"

Having said that, Gan Ning himself did not retreat but instead advanced, a tyrant sword attacked Tai Shici with a fiercer attitude. Gan Ning was a master of art, so he asked the soldiers to retreat first. Instead, he fought with Taishi Ci to fight for the soldiers.

Hearing the sound of Mingjin, Xiliang soldiers were already in a bitter battle. They were relieved and retreated from the ladder. Ding Feng, Zhu Huan and others also retreated after fighting with Jiangdong Army.

"Hey, Taishi Ci, I have had enough fun, so I retreat first, you and I will fight again in Japan!"

Gan Ning laughed, turned and left.

"Don't go if you are a good guy!" Tai Shi Ci shouted.

Gan Ning chuckled, ignoring Taishi Ci's words, ran back towards the ladder, grabbed the ladder, and then leaped back.

I saw that a whole ladder fell straight down, seeing Gan Ning hit the ground, but in the midst of this moment, Gan Ning suddenly shouted and kicked on the ladder, with the help of a counter shock The force, rolled a few times on the ground, but was unscathed.

The Xiliang army that had attacked the city retreated like a tide, and at the same time brought the dead and wounded Xiliang army from under the city to the camp.

"Today, more than a thousand people were killed and more than two thousand injured, but it is expected that the casualties of the Jiangdong Army in Chengtou should also be in the thousands."

Military Chinese Documents Report.

Gao Chong couldn't help frowning and said: "What, it's just a mere day, and thousands of people have been killed in battle. It's unreasonable!"

Although the siege is doomed to many casualties, the so-called double attack, ten encirclement. According to Sun Tzu's theory, there must be more than ten times the number of soldiers and horses to besiege the city, but a thousand soldiers were killed in one day, which is really scary.

"The enemy's fighting spirit is very strong, but in the eyes of the general, our army has to speed up the attack!"

Gan Ning said coldly: "The enemy's strength is much less than ours. Our army can afford it, but the enemy can't afford it. It is better for our army to step up the attack on the city one after another without giving the enemy time to breathe. There are more and more military casualties, as long as it reaches half, this city can be taken!"

Gan Ning is notoriously cruel. A family boy fled to Lu Meng's mansion to ask for asylum because he was afraid that Gan Ning would kill him. As a result, Gan Ning carried a knife to Lu Meng's house, and Lu Meng protected the boy from killing him. As a result, Gan Ning killed the boy as soon as he turned around.

Even the general governor did not listen to what he said, which shows how cruel Gan Ning is.

"General Gan's words are indeed reasonable, but this is too harmful to the soldiers." Zhu Huan sighed.

Ding Feng followed Gan Ning. He didn’t learn anything else, but he was cruel, but he learned a lot: "I think Big Brother Xingba makes sense. There are few enemy soldiers and we have many people. We just want to take advantage of our advantages and defeat them in one go. enemy!"

Gao Chong frowned: "Forget it, don't attack the city for now, order the whole army to dig ditches outside Binxian city to trap the enemy."

Gao Chong is more compassionate, and he doesn't want to just waste his army like this, which is really distressing.

As a result, the Xiliang Army gave up the siege of the city in the next few days, instead digging ditches outside the city, cutting off the enemy's food passage, and preventing the enemy from attacking the city.

After the Xiliang Army stopped siege of the city, Jiangdong Army did not move for a while, and the two armies remained motionless.

But after waiting for eight days, an uninvited guest arrived in the Xiliang army camp.

"In the next Tan Yin, meet the chief governor."

A man dressed as a small servant bowed his hand to Gao Chong.

"It's okay, I don't know what you are doing to see the Governor?" Gao Chong said lightly.

"Hehe, I came here to help the general governor get this Bin County." Tan Yin said hehe.

"Oh? How do you help this governor get Bin County?" Gao Chong frowned.

Tan Yin said diligently: "Our Tan family is a big family in Binxian. There are five hundred private soldiers in the family. If the general governor is willing to give us a little benefit, he is willing to open the city gate for the governor."

"Oh?" Gao Chong became interested when he heard the words: "Let's talk about it, what benefits do you Tan family want."

"If the Governor of Gaodu is willing to conquer Kebin County, it will be enough to give us an official and a half. The Tan family does not ask for the county magistrate, just give it to a county chief." Tan Yin said greedily.

"Um..." Gao Chong nodded after hesitated for a moment, "Well, please report back to the head of the Tan family for the governor, as long as the Tan family can open the city gate and help me take the city, let alone the county, the county It's nothing to order."

Tan Yin is overjoyed: "Thank you, the Governor, I believe the Patriarch will do his best to help the Governor win the city!"

"In that case, I went back, how about three days later?"

"Great."

After the two parties agreed on the date, Tan Yin was sent out of the barracks and returned to the city.

As soon as Tan Yin's front foot left, Zhu Huan leaned forward and said solemnly: "The Governor, do you really believe that this man named Tan will open the city gate?"

Gao Chong shook his head: "Of course it's impossible. Tan Yin has many doubts. The last time our army used the city's internal response to conquer Linxiang City, I believe Zhou Yu will definitely guard against it this time. How could Tan Yin go out? ?"

Zhu Huan suddenly realized: "The chief governor also promised him, does he want to use the trick?"

Gao Chong smiled slightly: "No, I'm doing a two-pronged approach. Three days later, I will send troops to try out. If Tan Yin is really dedicated to the city, he will go in with one stamina. If it is cheating, the Governor has made arrangements."

Hearing this, Zhu Huan couldn't help but curiously said: "Dare to ask what arrangements the chief governor has?"

Gao Chong said with confidence: "The superintendent has long ordered the soldiers to dig tunnels from the ground. When the time comes, the pillars supporting the tunnels will be burned in one fell swoop. The city will inevitably fall, and our army will attack in one fell swoop.
