When Gao Jiu heard this, he pondered for a moment.
“How many men and horses are there in our army, and how many more men and horses are there in the Zhao army?”
Wang Yi replied: “Our army can use the men and horses, full of fights, 20,000.” As for Zhao Jun…”
“At least forty thousand!”
Gao Jiu’s fingers tapped lightly on the table.
Twenty thousand versus forty thousand.
Or siege!
Either Wang Chong is crazy, or Zhao Kuo is stupid.
If this can be captured by you, Zhao Kuo will go home directly to feed.
Siege is different from defending a city.
The difficulty of siege is several times greater than that of defending it.
And now the reality is that the siege army is twice as small as the defenders.
If it weren’t for the fact that Zhao Kuo’s guy was killed by Gao Jiu a few times ago, the Qin army would have been completely wiped out.
The walls are about four feet high and surrounded by cliffs.
You can’t climb up, you can only enter through the main gate.
But the problem now is that there are not enough troops, not enough equipment, not enough food and grass.
Not even a war horse is enough.
That is, after storming the city gates, you don’t even have a war horse, how to rush in the first time.
I’m afraid that before the large army behind you arrives, the gate of the city will be closed again.
Trap your vanguard inside a pot end.
If the army led by Wang Yi’s father and son at the beginning, with a strength of 100,000 troops and sufficient food and grass, it would indeed be able to capture it in a month.
But now, the strength of the troops was consumed by Li Xin before they came.
Now there is another Lu Buwei, the two and five boys, dragging their feet behind.
Give nothing.
It is even more difficult to capture the city and win.
Wang Yi and Wang Ben both turned their eyes to Gao Jiu and waited for him to speak.
Gao Jiu asked again, “How many war horses are there?” ”
Wang Yi looked at Wang Bian, and Wang Ban replied: “Five thousand horses, but…”
“But what?”
Wang Ben sighed and said, “However, these five thousand horses, only less than two thousand horses can really come in handy. The remaining three thousand horses all have varying degrees of attrition. ”
Gao Jiu frowned, five thousand rides, only two thousand horses can be used, I’m afraid it is not enough.
Not enough speed, not enough quantity.
Two thousand horses rushed into the forty thousand people, and he was a person with great skills, and he couldn’t turn over the waves inside.
If there are no soldiers, there are no war horses and war horses.
In two days, I am afraid that there will be no food and grass.
At present, for the Qin army, this is not intended to be a situation of inevitable defeat.
“Your 100,000-strong army, how come there are only 2,000 war horses left to use?”
Gao Jiu asked puzzled.
That is, to kill the war horse and eat it, it is impossible to consume it so quickly, right?
“Don’t hide from the senior adjutant, every time you fight, the war horse is a great loss. One is casualties on the battlefield, and the other is because of the geographical environment. ”
“It would be better to fight in the plains, but now you are fighting in the mountains, and the hooves of the ground war horses are extremely worn. We don’t have a war horse that can be replaced now, so there are only about two thousand horses that can really be used. ”
“Coupled with the long knife that fell to the ground, as long as the war horse stepped on it, this horse is basically equivalent to waste.”
When Wang Ben said this, Gao Jiu understood the reason for the loss of war horses.
Only part of the people died in battle, and what really made these war horses lose their combat effectiveness was the wear and tear of horses’ hooves.
A war horse that damages its hooves on the battlefield is equivalent to a toothless tiger.
Not as good as a donkey.
Gao Jiu’s eyes suddenly lit up, stood up and said, “What about the war horse? Take me to see it. ”
Wang Yi Wang Ben didn’t know what he was going to see the war horse do, but now he could only put the hope of siege on this heavenly divine soldier.
The two got up at the same time and brought him to lead the horses in the barracks.
The war horses of the Qin Kingdom were all selected from a hundred miles.
There are also many types of war horses.
Warhorses of different physiques are suitable for fighting in different situations.
Long-distance attacks require a smaller body, a thick body, and strong limbs.
Such horses have good endurance and consume less.
The charge requires a tall horse with slender limbs and strong muscles.
Such explosive power is strong, and it is easy to break through the enemy’s camp.
To siege the city, naturally such a war horse is needed.
Gao Jiu watched one by one in the stable, raising the hooves of one war horse after another to observe.
After looking at nearly a hundred horses in a row, he suddenly realized and patted the dirt on his hands.
Wang Yi saw his suddenly cheerful appearance, and Wang Ben looked at each other.
“Vice Admiral, what can you see?”
Gao Jiu looked at the eager Wang Yi and smiled: “I have a way to temporarily solve the wear and tear of the war horse, but I still need some things, and I will talk to General Wang about this later.” Now let’s talk about the siege of the city, how to make the city gate open itself from the inside. ”
Wang Yi was stunned for a moment, and once wondered if he had heard wrong.
Let the gates open themselves from the inside?
This…… Unless it’s Zhao Kuo, that kid is crazy!
