Rebirth of the First Emperor
Chapter 262: The Farmer Defends the City
After Ying Zheng made up his mind, everything became much easier to handle. Everyone performed their duties, and all the food, grass and equipment were ready.
The strong men began to take over the defense affairs of the city. Bu Liuqing volunteered to stay and defend the city, and the head catcher Ning Tianya also stayed to defend the city, led by Shu Shu.
Eight hundred city guards, three hundred rangers, and three hundred clan troops, a total of 1,400 people, rushed to Yixin in a mighty manner. The fifty cavalry were roaming around as rangers to detect intelligence, and were also responsible for getting rid of people on the road.
of local spies and blocked messages.
So when I woke up along the way, although the Huxiang Army was huge, Yixin was not prepared at all. Ying Zheng led the troops and walked all the way without encountering any obstacles on the way. It was really easy.
Yixin discovered that the Huxiang Army was about to approach the city. At that time, the Huxiang Army was less than ten miles away from Yixin's high wall. Once at this place, Yingzheng no longer wanted to hide anymore.
.
The army is coming from afar, and the siege equipment, grain, grass and ordnance, and these baggage items are factors that cannot be hidden. And now, Yixin is only a few miles away. If the army suddenly arrives, I am afraid that the Tianshi Sect army in the city is not ready yet.
Just in time to catch him off guard.
Yixin Tianshijiao's army only has about a thousand people. When Ma Qingliang was here, he once considered expanding the army to two thousand people to contain Huxiang. However, it was a pity that this plan was interrupted by Ying Zheng before it was implemented. It was precisely because of this
In this way, Ying Zheng will save himself a lot of trouble.
"The army continues to advance. The city guard is the main force in the siege, encircling the north alone. The ranger troops assist and swim in the south. The clan troops follow the county and attack from the east. The cavalry swims around to prevent the enemy from calling for help. Attack the city.
The equipment is distributed according to the number of people, and once it is in place, the city can be attacked without waiting for the order from the Chinese army."
When Ying Zheng led his army to less than three miles away from Yixin, he began to make arrangements and issue orders. However, although this order was very safe, Luo Yang, Jia Weifu and others still felt it was a bit strange, just because of the tone of Ying Zheng's order.
It was very casual and seemed not to take the siege of the city seriously.
"Could it be that your Excellency has nothing else to arrange before this?"
Luo Yang and Jia Weifu secretly thought that even Ax Gate Military Advisor Xu Wei was quite puzzled. After racking their brains, they came to the conclusion that Ying Zheng had internal support in the city. That was why he seemed careless.
It’s a complete performance with everything in mind!
Just as Ying Zheng thought, the enemy troops in Yixin City were not prepared at all. When the Huxiang Army arrived, the defenders in the city slowly moved into position. Not to mention the lack of weapons and armor, their steps were hurried.
When the soldiers saw the men and horses under the city, they smiled easily, and then chatted and laughed with the copper rod next to them, without seeming to care.
Under the city, even the largest team of the Huxiang Army only has 800 people. The other two groups have 300 people. Three hundred people are about the same number as the defenders on the city wall. With this small number of people, with the high wall,
, no wonder the defenders didn't take them seriously, there was no pressure at all.
I don't know if it was the soldiers of the Tianshi Sect who thought this way, but even the guards on the city wall were like this. They all looked coldly at the Huxiang Army who was slowly approaching below, with no disapproval in their hearts.
The elite of the Celestial Master Sect were the first Shadow Thorns to be formed, but their scale was limited by the scope of influence. The scale of the Celestial Master Sect's Shadow Thorns in each county was not very large. The only large-scale Shadow Thorns were eliminated by Ying Zheng.
Dropped.
Regarding the current Tianshi Sect, Ying Zheng can only describe it as a rabble. Apart from that, Ying Zheng can no longer find other adjectives.
Without the restraint of Ma Qingliang, the people in power in the counties of the Tianshi Sect obviously had strange ambitions. They abandoned their military affairs and became more eager to fight for power and profit. These people were all keen on the position of Commander Xiaoqu of Taihe County.
In the Battle of Huxiang, Xiaoqushuai and the protective generals were all gone. In this way, a power vacuum was created among the upper echelons of Taihe County. The emergence of Xiaoqushuai in Taihe County could only come from various sources.
The chief officials of the county are selected from other counties or transferred from other counties. However, since this is Taihe County, the possibility of promotion from the local area is still much higher.
So spurred by this idea, many people began to think about it. When Ma Qingliang was there, there were no archers in the Tianshi Sect. Now that they are gone, there are still no archers, although the time interval in between is quite short.
, but Ying Zheng’s intelligence shows that so far, the leaders of the Tianshi Sect in the counties of Taihe County have not yet had the intention to form an archer unit, and they have not even thought about it.
People who are conservative in their thinking and only know how to fight for power and profit. What is such an army if not a rabble?
From the bottom of his heart, Ying Zheng looked down on this group of people, but when it came time to actually contact him, Ying Zheng was still shocked by the stupidity of this group of people. The Huxiang Army actually put up the ladder on the city wall without any obstruction.
Go on, should this be done at such a stage?
At this time, Ying Zheng suddenly felt that his previous arrangement was a bit redundant. Yixin Tianshijiao was stupid and stupid. It would be insulting to use his resourcefulness with such a person. It really made people feel that his resourcefulness had no limit.
"Send the order and the army will attack the city with all its strength. Since the opponent is stupid, then he should be stupid to death, like a pig."
Ying Zheng rode on his horse and looked at the scene on the battlefield coldly. He did not join the battlefield to fight. He was accompanied by a group of scouts and a hundred rangers, which counted as holding back the battle.
Directly in front, two hundred rangers climbed up the ladder. The Tianshijiao sergeants finally reacted at this time, but they picked up their weapons one by one and took a step back. They actually wanted to wait for the Huxiang Army to climb up.
Come up and have a decisive battle.
Ying Zheng couldn't help laughing when he saw the behavior of the Celestial Master's defenders on the city wall. He almost laughed out loud. The people above were so funny.
However, in the end, the Huxiang Army still failed to climb the wall smoothly. These Tianshijiao soldiers were stupid, but it did not mean that all the people in the Tianshijiao were like this. Soon there were messengers who came to tell the city gate officials.
After some words, the sergeants from the Tianshi Sect stupidly rushed up and a large number of people planned to push the Huxiang Army's ladder down the city wall.
Doing these things at this time would be a bit of a last resort, but it only served as a slight obstruction. The Huxiang Army only paused on the ladder for a moment before continuing to charge upward.
The Tianshijiao sergeant was actually in a hurry at this time. After that, under the order of the city gate officer, a group of gun-carrying sergeants rushed out and stabbed down with their long spears, but the effect was very little because of the marksmanship of these people.
The accuracy is quite poor.
At this time, Ying Zheng finally knew another thing, that is, these so-called Tianshi Jiao sergeants were basically a group of farmers, one level worse than the strong men temporarily recruited by Huxiang.
