Chapter 170
Offense is the best defense?
Jiang Ning quite agrees with this point of view!
Without saying much, he nodded.
Xu Wenqing answered: "What Yang Xiang said is not unreasonable, but as far as I know, the Northern Desert Wolf Army is best at fighting on the plains. On the plains, they are like divine soldiers descended from heaven. Wherever they pass, not even a blade of grass grows.
, I don’t think it’s appropriate to take the initiative to attack!”
"This is equivalent to handing your neck to your opponent!"
"What do you think?"
"That makes sense..." Others nodded in agreement.
"I think we still have to hold on to the city against the Northern Desert Wolf Army!" Xu Wenqing mentioned again, frowning and thinking.
"I also think we have to defend the city!" Zhang Sanjia responded.
"agree!"
All, express your views on this war, the key points are clear.
Yang Hui was not angry when her point of view was refuted, but instead had a smile on her face.
This is the current court of the Wu Dynasty. Everyone works together and gets along very harmoniously.
"If you want to attack, you still have to wait until you retreat in the Northern Desert!"
"yes!"
"The combat power they have without retreating is very terrifying!"
Expressing opinions.
Jiang Ning listened and nodded thoughtfully, "Everything you say makes sense. Well, immediately remove 150,000 soldiers and horses from the three major camps in the southeast and west to support the northern city!"
Some time ago, each battalion had recruited about 100,000 soldiers and horses, so the current Wu Dynasty army also has 500,000 troops.
"The troops and horses have not moved yet, but the food and grass go first. Zhang Sanjia, immediately raise the rations for the army of 150,000 people!"
Jiang Ning ordered.
"Yes...Your Majesty!"
No matter which dynasty or generation we are in, whenever we fight a war, we fight for the economy.
What is being attacked is the domestic political system.
Today's Wu Dynasty people, after a series of reforms in Jiangning, are very warlike.
One by one, they wished they could rush forward and kill the enemy to make achievements.
Because the whole country agrees with the war!
Even if they don't eat or drink, they still have to donate rations to support...
Under Jiang Ning's rule, the people of the Wu Dynasty had an unprecedented surge in their feelings for their family and country!
Therefore, even if the war breaks out again, there is nothing to fear!
Just one word, fight!
So, an army of 150,000 troops marched towards the northern city...
At the same time, on the Beijing City side, a hundred thousand troops from the Northern Desert besieged the city. The military formations were solemn and solemn, giving people a dangerous situation of the sky collapsing and the earth collapsing.
There was an unprecedented sense of oppression in all directions.
Xiao Zhanming on the tower, holding a long sword in his hand, was ready to fight.
But this time, the Northern Desert Wolf Army did not take the initiative to attack the city on a large scale.
This makes Xiao Zhanming somewhat puzzled...
Not long after, some of the pioneers around Batu, under his order, rode forward.
"Listen, people of the Wu Dynasty, nearly half a million troops have been assembled in the Northern Desert. The purpose is to crush you. Before our general loses his temper, it is best to leave the city and surrender!"
"In this way, I can leave some intact bodies for you. I hope you won't be shameless!"
"That's right, do you want to keep shrinking and being a coward?"
"Ha ha…"
"People from the Wu Dynasty are just like a turtle with a shrunken head?"
These pioneers, you and I are scolding each other with every word.
The Wu Dynasty soldiers on the tower were instantly filled with anger.
Shi Gandang spat, "These bastards are cursing here instead of attacking. It's so damn hard to see them alive. General, please give me your order and I'll cut off their heads!"
Very angry.
Xiao Zhanming had no expression on his face and said calmly, "If you launch an attack now, wouldn't you just fall into their trap?"
"It's not necessary to provoke the general!"
Shi Gan said: "I feel really unhappy about being scolded!"
Xiao Zhanming said calmly: "The Northern Desert Wolf Army is good at plain battles, and siege has always been their weakness. We can't take advantage of them!"
"The worst thing is, let the soldiers scold you back!"
When Shi Gandang heard the sound, he was also stunned, thinking that what Xiao Zhanming said made sense.
Just like that, a bizarre scolding battle began!
"Damn it, Ni Ma, if you have the guts, come over!"
"Guys who give birth to children without buttholes, how dare they come in front of us and point fingers?"
"Do you really not know how to write the word "death"?"
"Look at what you are like, go die now, what the hell!"
"..."
War of words.
People on both sides greeted each other's ancestors.
Batu was a little speechless after hearing this.
"Return to the general, the people of Wu Dynasty are unmoved!"
People from the Pioneer Battalion came to report.
Batu spat in displeasure, "Keep scolding me, grandma, what the hell!"
Neither party took the initiative to attack, just scolding each other back and forth.
It lasted for three days!
Xiao Zhanming could bear it, but Batu was also shocked. He had no choice but to symbolically attack the city.
Give the impression of starting an attack.
Originally, according to the agreed tactics, he was only responsible for acting.
There is no need to start a large-scale war, which will cause terrible casualties.
Northern Desert Wolf Army, Pioneer Battalion, siege...
Xiao Zhanming murmured: "Has it started yet?"
"Order all soldiers to defend the city..."
Just like that, a dense rain of arrows fell crazily from the sky.
Sweeping out a power of gold and stone.
In an instant, a piece of the Northern Desert Wolf Army fell to the ground... That's what siege warfare is like, using bones to build ladders.
The other side is the Tobu Capital side.
Toya has laid out a plan to attack the western border of Tobu.
The western territory we are attacking now once belonged to Tobu. If we want to calculate, we should be fighting within Tobu territory!
She ordered several of her brothers to lead the army, divide their forces and attack, heading to the western border of the Wu Dynasty!
Hezhou is the western border of Wu Dynasty. It used to belong to Dongwu!
In this way, Tobu Capital City became the base camp of the Desert Wolf Army. Fifty thousand people were left to prevent Soochow from sneak attacks. The remaining 150,000 people were deployed across the entire front and advanced in batches.
Checkpoints will be set up every fifty miles, and camps will be set up twenty miles away from Hezhou, near water sources, and fortifications will be built to prevent the Wu Dynasty army from counterattacking.
This time, Toya did not rush forward, but advanced step by step!
Moreover, they are still marching under the cover of night.
When the siege began, the Wu Chao army had not yet reacted, and a siege battle had begun!
The one who attacked the city overnight was Toya's eldest brother, Prince Talda!
Mountain City is the first city in the east of Hezhou. This city was built on the mountain, so it got such a name. Of course, it is not some cliff...
Wu Hemo was still sleeping when he was awakened by the sudden sound of fighting.
When I opened my eyes, I didn't have time to put on my armor, so I rushed to the tower and saw a dark, dense crowd of people.
Seeing this, he was also shocked.
"what happened?"
Chapter completed!
