Qinglong Three Kingdoms

Chapter 556 The Army Approaches Wan County

Zhou Yu was no doubt a wise military general during the Three Kingdoms period. In his eloquent words, he also planned a battle with Liu Xun's army in advance in this military tent.

Combining the advantages of Zhu Weijun's army formed by different arms, he set up a relatively advantageous tactic according to the terrain outside the Nawan County.

After hearing Zhou Yu's arrangement, the others in the military tent had nothing to add. Lu Su, who had some thoughts in his mind, felt that Zhou Yu had already said everything he could say.

So after Zhou Yu finished speaking, when Zhu Wei looked at Lu Su, Lu Su also said that he had nothing to add, so Zhu Wei looked at Jia Xu again, wondering what the poisonous man had other thoughts.

Jia Xu stroked the short beard on his chin slightly, but smiled lightly, "Gongjin's strategy for tomorrow is quite comprehensive, and I have nothing to add, but I have thought of something else!"

Apparently Jia Xu thought of some little plots and tricks again, so he paused and said, "First, even though it is difficult to attack the city at the north gate of Wan County, our army cannot let Liu Xun go north. The gate is too secure, so our army can move a part of it to the north of Wan County in the direction of the Wanhe River, and use false flags to attract Liu Xun's attention so that he cannot reduce the guards at the north gate!"

"Secondly, in tomorrow's battle, the army outside Liu Xun's city may be defeated in battle, so our army can make preparations. When the other army is defeated, let the dead soldiers pretend to be Liu Xun's soldiers, mix in with the defeated soldiers of the other army, and bring sky thunder bombs into the army. In the camp, if you use thunder and fire to disrupt them, you may be able to make great achievements in one battle!"

"Thirdly, after our army breaks the army outside Liu Xun's city, our army needs to send troops to press against Wan County, so that our army can control the land outside Wan County, so as to prevent Liu Xun's soldiers from conspiring again. Perhaps we can also use this to contact Liu Ye in the city."

"Well, Mr. Jia is really an old-fashioned plan, so he should arrange it like this! Then, let's decide on the specific soldiers to use!"

After Zhu Wei heard it, he also felt that Jia Xu's additions were useful points, so he nodded in agreement, and then the soldiers for tomorrow's specific battle will be arranged. After all, there is only Pang Yan left in Pang Yan's Xiongba camp. The main general and Yi Ji have a long history, and the other lieutenants and assistant generals are either sent out to ambush or perform other tasks.

Although there are still some generals who are not recognized by the Three Kingdoms game system, they cannot compare with generals like Ling Cao and Zhou Tai in terms of ability.

In addition, the generals available in Zhu Wei's Chinese army camp, that is, Huang Gai, can be regarded as the type who can charge into the battle, and the other is Zhou Yu, who can also act as a military general.

Therefore, in some battles, the generals and soldiers below can only rely on their desperate efforts on the battlefield, and with the help of trained combat power, they can break down the enemy's formation.

Fortunately, from now on, it seems that there are no well-known generals on Liu Xun's side. At least Zhu Wei has Huang Gai and Pang Yan, two fierce generals who can charge forward at critical moments and help the army break through the enemy's formation.

In this way, Zhu Wei discussed some specific military arrangements in the military account, and after finalizing the strategy, he sent various military orders to the army.

So at the first time, Lu Su led five thousand Chinese troops and two thousand auxiliary soldiers, and according to Jia Xu's suggestion, he bypassed Wan County to the north gate of Wan County, and finally crossed the Wan River to the north of Wan County. A military stronghold was also set up in the land, which seemed to be able to accommodate more than [-] troops, as if more than [-] troops could threaten the north gate of Wan County at any time.

In fact, this is a bluff and suspicious strategy. Of course, Lu Su's ability can definitely make Liu Xun, who is stationed at the north gate of Wanxian County, dare not ignore the existence of Lu Su's army.

In this way, it would be difficult for Liu Xun to mobilize the soldiers stationed at the north gate to support the war at the south gate at critical times, and at the same time he had to dispatch more troops from the city to garrison the north gate.

Then, as Zhu Wei's auxiliary soldiers built the temporary military camp in the fastest time, Zhu Wei's army also entered the camp.

At this time, the sky had already darkened, and the first day when Zhu Wei's army came to Wan County seemed to pass safely, but everyone knew that this was the last peace before the war.

There was nothing wrong that night, Liu Xun did not send troops to launch a night attack to take advantage of the arrival of Zhu Wei's army for the first time.

So the next day after Zhu Wei's army had a full breakfast, at the hour of Chen, with the rumble of the war drum, many soldiers lined up and marched towards Wan County.

At the front is the former army of the Xiongba Battalion commanded by Pang Yan, consisting of more than 7000 sword shields and more than 3000 crossbow and crossbow archers. The soldiers of the army inevitably formed a wild goose formation as they moved forward, heading towards Wancheng like a big open hand. go ahead.

According to Zhou Yu's previous military tactical arrangement, the Xiongba camp's army would eventually occupy the left and right highlands of the battlefield of the two armies outside Wan County.

Next is Zhu Wei's central military battalion with more than 8000 sword shieldmen, more than 5000 crossbowmen, and more than 3000 white feather battalion guards, including more than 1000 newly transformed white feather cavalry.

Almost 6000 troops formed a square formation, surrounded by swords, shields and hands, crossbowmen in the middle and front, and two thousand Baiyu Battalion infantry guarding the core area where Zhu Wei was. The white feather cavalry followed behind.

Behind them are spear-jabbed tiger carts, siege carts, ballistas, thunderbolt artillery carts, etc., pushed by about [-] auxiliary soldiers, and some carts loaded with special weapons are also mixed in.

In this way, Zhu Wei dispatched an army of nearly [-], and prepared to launch the first offensive against Wan County.

About half an hour later, Zhu Wei's army gradually formed a formation about two miles away from the city wall of Wan County, and Liu Xun in Wan County had already climbed up the city wall, watching Zhu Wei from a distance from the gate tower. The might of the army.

In front of the gate of the city of Wan County, there are two military forts that look like docks, which can be stationed with one or two thousand troops respectively, and further outside are the camps where Liu Xun's [-] troops stationed outside the city.

Seen from the air, the entire Wan County and the camps outside seemed to be in a defensive formation with the word "Zeng", but the two points where the word "Zeng" was originally hidden inside were placed outside the box.

Liu Xun had an army of [-] in his hands, so he didn't feel any fear when he saw Zhu Wei's army slowly approaching like a sea of ​​people on the city wall.

After all, Liu Xun has the advantage of defending the city. Generally speaking, if the attacking party wants to capture the city, it needs at least several times as many troops as the defending party, and that is on the premise that the defending party has insufficient troops.

If the defenders have enough troops, like Liu Xun now has [-] troops, then the defenders can use their strength to greatly extend the time of the battle.

Once such a war is delayed for a month to a few months, the more troops the attacking party has, the more food, grass, and supplies will be consumed. In the end, the attacking party's logistics supplies are often unable to support them, and they can only choose to retreat.

This is also a common state of war in the era of cold weapons. In many cases, it is not that the military cannot win, but that the supply of logistics, food, grass and materials cannot be satisfied.

So when there is still some food and grass left, the only option is to withdraw the army, otherwise once the food and grass are exhausted, the army will soon disintegrate on its own...
