Chapter 146 Anyi City Breakdown
Outside Anyi City, the left-wing troops led by Cheng Lian and the right-wing troops led by Liang Yan were disintegrated by Hu Cai and Han Siam who guarded the city gates in both attacks.

However, these two attacks were feints, and the actual consumption and loss were not large.

As for the headquarters troops led by Zhu Jun and the vanguard troops led by Zhang Liao, they did not launch an attack within these ten days.

In Zhu Jun's camp, Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian and Liang Yan all came after receiving the military order.

"Baibo thieves are turtles. It's been 20 days and they're still nesting in the city. If they continue to consume like this, our army will have to retreat due to lack of food." Liang Yan said in a deep voice.

At that time, Zhu Jun assured the court that it would only take one month to take down the Baibo bandits, so he only prepared one month's food. Although there was still some food in the other five counties to be conquered, it was delayed for a few days at most.

"Sneakily transfer more than half of the siege equipment to Zhang Liao's vanguard. I will use the east gate as the breakthrough point for this siege." Zhu Jun commanded.

After 20 days of several sieges, although the Baibo bandits in the city were not forced out, the vanguard led by Zhang Liao was useless but already had a preliminary impression in the enemy's mind.

During the ten days of the siege, Zhang Liao's forward troops had already retreated several miles and were ready to defend. This made the defenders at the east gate laugh a little, because they had no intention of attacking Zhang Liao's forward troops at all.

In fact, this is normal. After all, although Li Le, the guard of the east gate, looks down on Zhang Liao's forward troops, it would be a foolish act to let him go out to attack Zhang Liao's forward troops. After all, with the help of the city, his combat ability is the strongest. .

The guards above are somewhat cautious, but the defenses of the guards below have weakened. Military operations always only look at merit, strong is strong, weak is weak, how can there be so many things.

Zhang Liao's forward troops led by Zhang Liao's record of attacking the city and several defensive retreats were already extremely cowardly behaviors in the hearts of the defenders. Although Li Le wanted to keep the defenders on alert, Zhang Liao's troops With the delay in attacking and the repeated concessions, the vigilance of the soldiers defending the city has long been lost.

"Cheng Lian, Liang Yan, I'll give you three days. Take advantage of the darkness and transfer 500 people from each team to Zhang Liao's vanguard. At the same time, don't stop feinting." Zhu Jun handed the military order to Cheng Lian and Liang Yan. Yan.

"Zhang Liao, you continue to stand still. In this battle, whether you can conquer the city of Anyi depends entirely on you. I will also lead an army to attack the city to cover you and prevent Yang Feng's troops from going back to rescue." Zhu Jun held The military order was passed to Zhang Liao.

"Five days later, when the cock crows, I will personally lead an army to attack the west wall of Anyi City. Cheng Lian and Liang Yan, you need to cooperate with me in a feint attack. After a quarter of an hour, Zhang Liao, you will launch a general attack. In this battle, take down Anyi City, do you have confidence?" Zhu Jun stood up and said, pointing to Anyi City on the map.

"General, we have confidence." Zhang Liao, Cheng Lian, and Liang Yan also stood up and bowed.

"Okay, let's go down."

After the three resigned, Zhu Jun walked slowly in the barracks, and he remembered that he used this trick when attacking Han Zhong in Wancheng.

However, the difference from before was that Zhu Jun led the attack that time, and Zhang Liao led the attack this time. Although Zhang Liao is a young man, after such a long time, he also fell in love with this young man.

Zhang Liao is brave and resourceful, and he also obeys orders.Most importantly, this young man has a unique understanding of military operations.

Zhu Jun originally gave Zhang Liao the military order to attack the defenders at the east gate, and Zhang Liao's army chose to retreat, but Zhang Liao felt that although the enemy looked down on Zhang Liao's army, it was impossible to lure out of the city, so Zhang Liao suggested that the troops should take the initiative to defend The form recedes day by day.

Zhu Jun finally chose to believe Zhang Liao's suggestion after careful consideration. Sure enough, the enemy did not dare to leave the city. The vigilance of soldiers.

Along the way, Zhang Liao's performance was really excellent, which is why Zhu Jun dared to entrust Zhang Liao with such an important task.

Li Le, the guard on the east wall of Anyi City, is currently patrolling the wall. He is looking at Zhang Liao's camp, which is about five miles away from Anyi City. Even standing on the city wall, he can't see Zhang Liao's camp clearly. situation within.

Li Le kicked the guarding soldiers holding the halberds. He was a little annoyed. This is already the No. 20 soldiers he kicked today. None of these soldiers were in the state of defending the city, and the halberds in their hands were shaking. wobbly.

The guarding soldiers looked at Li Le, and suddenly cheered up, straightened their bodies again, and the halberd in their hands stopped shaking. Li Le nodded in satisfaction, and continued to patrol.

After Li Le walked a hundred meters away, the city defender pulled his body up again, and the halberd in his hand began to shake again, complaining in his heart that the opposite side was just a group of cowards.

This kind of emotion has already spread in the military camp on the east wall. Even with Li Le's stop, it still has no effect. After all, this group of people has been defending for more than 20 days, and as a result, the army on the opposite side has no attack at all. Instead, they are still worried about their attack. This kind of cowardly behavior is the most shameful for soldiers in the army.

Of course, when discussing in private, the guarding soldiers can try their best to mock the besieging soldiers on the opposite side, but once they stand on the wall, they can only force themselves to cheer up, but their expressions are quite different from when they first defended the city Far.

Li Le couldn't do anything about it. He himself fought against Zhang Liao's army before, and he actually felt that the combat effectiveness of Zhang Liao's army was very average. These days, although he patrolled the city wall every day, that was all. .

Anyway, if Zhang Liao's army didn't attack, Li Le would save himself trouble. He wished that Zhang Liao's army would retreat a few miles. In this case, he didn't even want to do patrolling.

Three days passed quickly, and Cheng Lian and Liang Yan's two armies, each with 500 soldiers, had arrived at Zhang Liao's army, and more than half of the army's siege equipment had also arrived at Zhang Liao's army. middle.

In the past few days, Zhang Liao is making the final task arrangement, and he is waiting for the cock crowing two days later, which will be the opportunity to avenge his shame.

From the first day when he arrived outside Anyi City, Zhang Liao began to feign defeat, and then he led his army here, and he retreated many times. If it weren't for the high quality of the imperial army and Zhang Liao's strong commanding ability, I am afraid that this team would have died sooner or later. Morale is gone.

Even so, the morale of this unit has dropped a lot, but with the reinforcements of the left and right wing troops, the morale of this unit has finally risen a little.

Five days later, when the cock crowed, Yang Feng was still half awake in his sleep, but a personal guard hurriedly ran outside the army tent, muttering loudly, "General, it's not good, Zhu Jun led the army to attack the city." .”

"What?" Yang Feng stood up from the bed at once, put on his clothes quickly, and walked out of the military tent without even fastening his clothes due to his haste.

Along the way, the personal guard informed Yang Feng of all the situation on the front line.

Since Zhu Jun chose to attack the city when the cock crowed, many soldiers had not fully woken up and needed to be woken up one by one at this moment, but Yang Feng had no choice but to come to the city wall and start commanding.

"Where's Xu Huang?" After Yang Feng stabilized, he began to ask.

"General Xu is leading a thousand soldiers in the city." The guard replied.

"Tell him to come here quickly. My place is very dangerous now and I need support." Yang Feng waved his hand and asked the guards to pass the order.

Immediately afterwards, the other generals under Yang Feng had already rushed over from the military tent, followed by their soldiers.

The offensive of Zhu Jun's army is not indifferent. The guards on the city wall are all elite soldiers of Yang Feng. Otherwise, they can take them all with just a surprise attack. Even so, Zhu Jun's army has attacked the city wall several times. The situation was very tense.

The situation at the east wall was similar to that at the north and south walls. Almost at the same time that Zhu Jun launched the attack, Cheng Lian and Liang Yan also led their troops to attack.

Different from the feint attack a few days ago, this time the attack was real. Both Hu Cai and Han Xian felt that it was difficult at once. They also sent their personal guards to Xu Huang's army and asked Xu Huang's army to come to rescue.

The first to arrive at Xu Huang's army was Hu Cai's personal guard, because he was facing the right-wing troops led by Liang Yan, and the attack was the most violent, and his defense was really ugly.

After Xu Huang received the order from Hu Cai's personal guards, he led the soldiers to the south gate without stopping. After Yang Feng and Han Xian's personal guards arrived at Xu Huang's garrison, they naturally rushed to nothing.

"I'm so angry, Xu Huang, how can I go to reinforce Hu Cai's troops first." Yang Feng cursed, he seemed to have forgotten the order he gave Xu Huang at the beginning, which was to support the four city gates at all times.

"General, wait until the battle is over before punishing Xu Huang." General Yang Fengbian echoed.

At the moment when the three city gates were attacked, Zhang Liao's troops also launched an attack. Like the other three, Zhang Liao launched the most violent attack from the beginning.

This time, Zhang Liao first sent out the left and right wing troops who came to reinforce them. They still maintained complete combat effectiveness. With the help of more than half of the army's siege equipment, Zhang Liao's troops had already attacked the city wall.

At this moment, Li Le was like waking up from a dream, and quickly sent his personal guards to ask Xu Huang's army for support, but unfortunately his personal guards didn't see anything, so he hurried back to report,

"General, General Xu's troops have disappeared." The guard said eagerly.

Due to the underestimation of the soldiers guarding the east city gate, Zhang Liao's siege went very smoothly. At this moment, the former army had completely boarded the east city wall, and the two armies on the city wall were fighting fiercely.

Li Le summoned three personal guards in succession, and gave three military orders to ask them to seek support from the three generals.

Hu Cai and Han Xian needless to say, their number of soldiers was not many, and now they are facing fierce attack from outside the city, how can they lend Li Le their soldiers, so they all resolutely rejected the request of Li Le's personal guards.

As for Yang Feng, he is still angry because of Xu Huang's matter. Regarding Li Le's personal guard's request, he only thinks it is Li Le's exaggeration. fun.

Yang Feng, who was defending the west gate, was frightened by Zhu Jun's attack at first, but later on, he could only feel that Zhu Jun was nothing more than that. It seems that his original fear was completely wrong.

As everyone knows, most of the siege equipment in Zhu Jun's army has been concentrated in Zhang Liao's army. It is impossible for even elite soldiers to take down the city wall without the cooperation of siege equipment.

The personal guards have all returned. Li Le heard three refusal answers, and his heart suddenly turned cold. In his original plan, if other troops are willing to support, he can command his men to continue to resist, at least not to let those troops Soldiers who had already scaled the walls entered the city.

But now Li Le no longer has this idea. Once the enemy attacks the city wall, his soldiers will pay a much higher price than defending the city if he tries to stop him. Since the other three places are unkind, don't blame him for being unrighteous.

Li Le gathered all the soldiers under the city wall and asked them to follow him to find a garrison in the city for defense. As for the guarding soldiers on the city wall, no one cared about their life or death.

The defenders of the city wall without follow-up supplies were quickly defeated by Zhang Liao's army, and then the front troops of Zhang Liao's army opened the city gate. Since then, the east wall of Anyi City has been completely taken down by Zhang Liao's army.

The news that the east city wall was breached quickly spread to the rest of the three armies, and the morale of Hu Cai and Han Xian's soldiers dropped rapidly.

Hu Cai and Han Xian resolutely chose to give up defending the city. They planned to break out of the siege. A gate of Anyi City was broken, which meant that the entire Anyi City was no longer safe. Besides, Li Le, who gave up defending the city first, also occupied the city. The best place to defend, this is obviously done with the idea of ​​letting them die first.

Yang Feng naturally also knew the news, his approach was no different from that of Hu Cai Han Xian, even though he had thousands of elites in his hand, but Yang Feng understood that his so-called elites wanted to fight against the imperial army in the city, then It's like hitting a stone with an egg.

No matter how powerful the elite of the white wave thieves are, they are still white wave thieves. Relying on the city to block the imperial army is their last glory.

"All the generals obey the order, gather all the soldiers that can be called under the city, and follow me to the north city gate to break through." Yang Feng ordered.

"General, what should Xu Huang do?" A general asked suddenly.

"Don't worry about him." Yang Feng said angrily.

Although Yang Feng's troops were all stationed at the west city gate, Zhu Jun's troops were all outside the west city. It was not easy to break out of the siege. Since it was difficult to break out of the west city, he could only choose other gates to break through.

Yang Feng had already thought about the direction of escape from the very beginning, that is where Bingzhou in the north is located, so breaking out from the north city gate was most in line with Yang Feng's expectations.

At this moment, Han Siam, who was guarding the north gate of the city, was also trying to break through. When he saw Yang Feng leading the troops, he finally had a glimmer of hope in his heart. With Yang Feng's large army, it would not be difficult to break out of the encirclement.
