The Rise of the Song People of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 464 Yiqu Steals a Teacher
On the city wall of Qiao County, Yang Ye is in front, Dong Xi is at the side, and there are a group of Yang family boys behind him, such as Yang Pu, Yang Xun, Yang Gui, and Yang Gui.

"Yang Linggong, the enemy army has only [-] troops, why don't we go out of the city to meet them?"

"In the Yuan Dynasty (Dong Xizi Yuan Dynasty), the main force of Yuan Shao was attacking Suiyang, and [-] troops were allocated to attack Qiao County to test our army's defense line. come.

Our elite army is actually only [-], and our strength is still insufficient. There is no dangerous place from Suiyang to Qiaoxian, and there is no danger to meet the enemy in a field battle.

Leaking fatigue, Yuan Shao's main force will definitely turn to attack Qiao County, so if he sticks to the city, he will not be able to shake Qiao County with just 2 horses. "

Dong Xi thought about it, and Yuan Shao suffered a defeat (the one when Du Gao was burned), but his family has a great cause and still has 1 troops. It is better not to take risks when he has only [-] troops.

The next day, Yuan Shaojun's craftsmen were stepping up to make catapults, punching carts and other siege weapons. These were learned by Jiang Yiqu and used now. Today, he went to the battle to fill the moat.

Jiang Yiqu's ability to steal soldiers is first-rate, so he ordered the shield soldiers to guard the front, and then let the sandbags on their backs be thrown down the moat.

When Yang Ye saw that the shield soldiers greatly reduced the damage of the archers, he felt that the enemy general had some skills and was not easy to deal with. Yang Ye didn't know how powerful Jiang Yiqu was at stealing his troops.

A few days later, Jiang Yiqu took out Han Qiong's set again and again, for example, the trebuchets appeared one after another. On both sides far away from the barracks, I am afraid that Yang Ye also has the canned fire oil and graphite (charcoal).

"Brothers, kill!", "Kill!", "Kill!"

After setting up a set of catapults, Jiang Yiqu ordered the siege to begin, and the Chongche and Lugong chariots were pushed to the front. However, these two vehicles did not make much, and most of the manpower was given to Jiang Yiqu to make catapults.

"Lieutenant Gunner, aim at the opponent's catapult and strike back! The bow and crossbow battalion is ready! Let the arrows go! Fire and oil are ready!"

Yang Ye's orders were carried out in an orderly manner, and the catapult began to fight back!
As Yang Ye issued orders one by one, the first to move was naturally the catapult. Huge stone projectiles flew out and accurately hit Jiang Yiqu's catapult.

The sight of flying rocks all over the sky confirmed Jiang Yiqu's worries. Like Suiyang, Qiao County also has such sharp weapons as catapults, and there are even more sharp weapons such as flying arrows all over the sky.

When Jiang Yiqu secretly guessed, it didn't take long for the first Lu public car to be ignited by raging fire, and the soldiers who were pushing it turned into burning men.

Jiang Yiqu watched his catapult truck being smashed and Lu Gong's car burned. At this time, he admired the veteran Han Qiong for fighting against such a fortified city!

The siege of Qiao County was almost a replica of the siege of Suiyang. The veteran Yang Ye defended in an orderly manner, and his adequate defensive preparations made Jiang Yiqu, Ma Yan, Zhang Yi, and Su You feel that only [-] soldiers wanted to take Qiao County. It's just a dream.

However, military orders must not be disobeyed. Yuan Shao's order was to capture Qiao County, so he couldn't retreat after just a trial, right?

The four of them discussed for a long time that this defense like an iron barrel, let alone a 2-man Yuan Shao main force, might not be able to win.

In the end, it was Jiang Yiqu who came up with his own method: "I am waiting to build a large number of catapults, but to learn from the old general Han Qiong's lesson, they cannot be placed in a centralized place. They need to be scattered in every corner, and at the same time, they must be far away from the barracks to prevent enemy fire."

But so Ma Yan asked a question: "General Yiqu, if you don't send troops to guard the catapult, what should the enemy do if they go out of the city to attack?"

Jiang Yiqu's eyes lit up at Ma Yan's words, and he slapped the table fiercely: "What we want is for the enemy to leave the city! This way, there will be a chance to wipe out the defenders in Qiao County in a field battle, and then there will be a chance to take Qiao County down!"

From then on, Jiang Yiqu didn't spend his troops to send people to attack the city, but all the troops built a series of catapults, and even placed them in very conspicuous positions in order to attract Yang Ye to leave the city.

Jiang Yiqu's method really annoyed Yang Ye very much. Although the catapult can be used to attack, the speed of destruction is not as fast as that of manufacturing. Even the new type of catapult is aimed at by human eyes, and it doesn't seem like there are any radars in later generations. Tracking system, thermal navigation system can assist aiming.

All things can change from quantitative to qualitative. Even if Yuan Shaojun's catapults lag behind, the hit rate will naturally rise slowly after the number base comes up, wooden buildings are smashed and collapsed, and many boulders are smashed above the city wall.

Qiao County is not a government office like Suiyang, and the strength of the city is still different. In addition, Yang Ye is not as good at defense as Du Gao. The power of the city wall depends on the hardness of the city to resist, or it depends on Yuan Shaojun's accuracy.

"Father, it's not good to go on like this. The city wall has cracked in many places. I'm afraid the city wall won't be able to hold on in the long run!"

"Why don't you use Du Shuai (Du Gao)'s way to burn it with heavy fire?"

"Fourth brother, I'm afraid it won't work. I saw the distribution of the enemy's trebuchets. If they are very scattered, we are afraid that we will attack with fire. Obviously, I have learned the lesson from Du Shuai last time."

Yang Pu, the third son of Old Linggong, was asking Yang Ye, surrounded by several younger sons, Yang Xun, Yang Gui, Yang Gui, and the deputy general Dong Xi, and a man wearing a scholar's robe but full of blood all over his body. Power, Yang Ye's two youngest sons are not here, because they are too young to go to the battlefield in the prefect's mansion.

Yang Pu is the younger brother of Yang Yanzhao and Yang Zaixing. Now he has reached the second-rate level in martial arts at eighteen. He is a good seed, but his personality is a bit reckless, unlike Yang Yanzhao and Yang Zaixing's calmness.

At this time, there were so many catapult attacks that Yang Pu asked his father Yang Ye eagerly. At the same time, Dong Xi also expressed urgency.

It was Yang Ye's fourth son, Yang Xun, who proposed Huo Gong, while Yang Ye's fifth son, Yang Gui, opposed Huo Gong. Both of them are twins at seventeen this year, and they are very clever.

"Brother Wenhu, is there a good plan for both wisdom and courage? Teach someone?"

The fourth son's idea of ​​attacking Yang Ye with fire was actually very emotional, but the fifth son was right, and he randomly asked about the big man in scholar's robe.

"Yes, yes! Master must have a clever plan!"

Yang Gui, who didn't speak, spoke at this time. The youngest boy present was only sixteen, but his martial arts talent was the best among the minors. He was not inferior to Yang Zaixing back then. Originally, Yang Ye didn't want to bring him by his side, but Lu Heng Those boys who were raised had been taken to the battlefield since they were ten years old. Yang Ye thought about it and took this boy with him.

But Yang Gui's name is actually Master Wenpao, obviously this Wenpao has a close relationship with the Yang family!
