Chapter 540 540
Two weeks after Kuang Zhang's army entered the land of Fujian.
Kuang Zhang's army has besieged Jiangle for a week, but there is no trace of breaking the city, and Wuxin has already done a good job, using the geographical advantage of Jiangle City to fight Kuang Zhang to the end.
There are fifteen small cottages and ten places under the banner of Jiangle, which is a relatively large city in Fujian, and it is surrounded by mountains, blocking the road for Kuangzhang to enter the core Fucheng of Fujian.
If Kuang Zhang wants to attack Fucheng, this Jiangle is a place that must be breached, but after Kuang Zhang stormed it for a week, there was no sign of shaking the city.
And Wuxin also drank tea here calmly, before he came to Jiangle, he transported most of the grain and grass in Fujian here, and there was no problem with Kuang Zhang to consume a year and a half here.
And Wuxin is already ready to spend a year and a half with Kuang Zhang here, he doesn't plan to attack, if Kuang Zhang doesn't attack, he will watch wherever he is, and he will defend when he attacks.
However, after a week, Kuang Zhang attacked the city and lost nearly 10,000 people, while Wuxin only lost more than 800 people.
It can be seen how great Jiangle's geographical advantage is, Kuang Zhang did not order the attack, he sat in the middle of the camp, melancholy.
Because it was surrounded by mountains on all sides, Kuang Zhang's samurai legion could not give full play to its greatest advantage at all, and Kuang Zhang did not send a samurai legion to battle.
Kuang Zhang couldn't think of any good way for a while, and the people inside were not short of food and grass, and the siege of the single existence was meaningless, and it was not very realistic to cross Jiangle.
Because the land of Fujian is basically mountainous, it is not realistic for the barren plague to scold him for wanting to climb the mountain to the back of Jiangle with a large army.
Even if you are afraid of the rear of Jiangle, you will definitely shed a lot of blood in vain, and you may lose more people than you will lose in the siege.
Therefore, there are only two roads in front of Kuang Zhang, one way, which is a strong attack, a reckless strong attack, until the breakthrough of Jiangle.
If Jiangle is lost, the Yue Kingdom will basically collapse, but if the Yue is defended, the Yue Kingdom will have the possibility of survival, and for Kuang Zhang's second way, that is, Zhou Baotong will fight from the coast of Jiaheli to Fucheng.
However, by sea transportation, Zhou Baotong's troops were not very sufficient, although it was easier to attack Fucheng from the coast of Jiaheli, but the strength was a problem.
Moreover, Wugang sent an army of 100,000, Cui Feng took command to fight against Zhou Baotong, and Zhou Baotong did not attack yet, so he turned to defense, using his army of less than 30,000 to resist Wugang's 100,000 army.
Although Zhou Baotong had been dispatching troops from Xuzhou to help him defend together, he did not let the people on the seashore prevent the militia and civilian ships from entering the sea to fight Zhou Baotong's transport ships.
The superiority in numbers at sea is not an advantage, because as soon as the ship sinks, the entire crew will die.
The fishermen of the Yue Kingdom used civilian boats to snipe the transport ships of the Qi State, and the effect was very good, causing the Qi State to suffer heavy losses.
There were also three naval battles in between, and although they were all won by the Qi army, after the victory of the naval battle, the fishermen would still prevent the civilian boats from sniping the transport ships.
After all, the Vietnamese people are not looking for your warship to fight, but to fight your transport, and they are not ramming your transport, after all, they are small boats, you are big ships, you can't hit them, they use fire attack methods.
And at the time of the attack, they still committed suicide attacks, which made the Qi people very helpless.
Zhou Baotong, who was helpless, could only let the transport ships attack various coasts under the protection of the warships.
The forces of the Qi State were scattered on various coasts, but the number of people on each coast was not large, and the Yue State could effectively resist.
And because of the dispersion of troops on various coasts, Zhou Baotong's Jiaheli coast could not gather a large army.
Facing Cui Feng's 100,000 army, Zhou Baotong was full of pressure, and he could only hope that those Xuzhou legions with strongholds could slowly move towards him.
The Qi army on each coast is about 1,000 people, only Jiaheli has reached 10,000 people, and some coasts even have only 100 people.
This kind of basic battle of 100 people became local prisoners in the last two or three days, and the kind of people who gathered 1,000 people and could fight each other for one or two rounds, although they could fight, it was very difficult to advance.
It can be said that the defense of Yue this time is the strength of the whole country, and it is defending against Qi, otherwise Qi would not be so difficult to capture.
Of course, the reason why the Yue people can be so united is mainly because of the blessing of the Chu State, after the Chu State sent the eight nobles of Fujian to Fujian, they bullied the Yue people and made the Yue people miserable.
Now that Wuwei has come, they have liberated them, although some of the eight nobles are the nobles of Fujian, but they no longer dare to hurt the Yue people, and the Yue people do not want to become slaves of the country, and they are being oppressed as much as they were back then, so they are very obedient to the dispatch of Wuwei.
In this war, the strategy of the Qi army was good, and they attacked back and forth, but after the implementation, it completely exceeded their expectations, they did not expect that the resistance of the Yue people would be so fierce, and Kuang Zhang did not expect that they would stay outside Jiangle City and could not take a step forward.
Jiang Ai looked at Kuang Zhang and said, "I have a plan, I can quickly break Jiangle!" ”
Kuang Zhang was stunned for a moment, then looked at Jiang Ai and said, "What strategy?" ”
"Poison in the water, poison in the water!" Jiang Ai said to Kuang Zhang.
Kuang Zhang was stunned: "Poisoning? ”
Poisoning has not happened in this troubled world, but once poisoned, it was pointed out by tens of thousands of people, because poisoning may kill the entire city.
"We don't have much time, if we wait until the war between Chu and other countries is over, Yue will definitely use diplomatic means to deal with our Qi country, and if we withdraw our troops, King Huan will definitely blame us!" Jiang Ai looked at Kuang Zhang and said.
"Poisoning is what everyone is referring to, but so what? As long as we can win, it would be great, not to mention, at this time, all the countries are fighting against the Chu State, and no one will care about our poisoning! Jiang Ai looked at Kuang Zhang and said.
"There are our secret guards in the city, let them poison all the wells inside, and we will also put poison in the moat!" Jiang Ai said to Kuang Zhang.
"Until then, we're going to store water for a week, and we're going to send it from somewhere else!" Jiang Ai said to Kuang Zhang.
Kuang Zhang was silent for a while and said, "Okay, then I'll obey General Jiang Ai!" ”
Kuang Zhang doesn't have a very good way, because this will be a strong city, relying on the method of attacking to the death, it has no effect, and can only use some other methods.
Although Jiang Ai's method is shameless and despicable, then again, there is no despicability in war, only victory!
Jiang Ai nodded: "Since General Kuang Zhang agreed to my method, then General Kuang Zhang will wait for the good news of our victory!" ”
Kuang Zhang nodded, muttering in his heart, women are really a terrible species.
Women are more vicious than men.
