453. To fight is to slaughter

If Zhou Yu was still in Moling County at this time, maybe Zhou Yu would still dare to fight.

Pouring out the troops in the city and having a decisive battle with Zhu Wei's army, at least destroying those siege equipment, you can dispel the oppressive nature of Zhu Wei's army's siege and regain the counterpower of the archers on the city wall.

It's a pity that Han Dang doesn't dare now, these troops in his hands are killed out of the city, that is, they are sent to death in vain.

Of course, even if Zhou Yu was really still in Moling County, Wang Yuyan was sure that he could stop Zhou Yu's new army soldiers before he arranged the five thousand sword and shield men in Moling County.

Wang Yuyan only cared about the loss of attacking the city and climbing the city, but she was not afraid of fighting with Zhou Yu's new army recruits outside the city.

If Zhou Yu was still in this Moling County, even if Zhou Yu sent more than 10,000 untrained recruits to break into the Bagua Tortoise Shell Formation composed of 5,000 swords and shields, it would only be a vain death.

It can be said that this time Wang Yuyan decided to attack the city to try, but she also prepared a perfect strategy, and she was not afraid of a decisive battle with Zhou Yu outside this Moling County.

Although Wang Yuyan had set the tactical policy of consuming food before, it didn't mean that she really didn't dare to fight a tough battle, she could fight when it was time to fight.

But the reality is just as Wang Yuyan guessed, Zhou Yu was not in Moling County, so Han Dang did not dare to go out of the city to rescue, so the remnants of the defenders who were killed and fled outside the city were soon surrounded and suppressed by Chen Heng and Yu Yu's soldiers, and gradually began to surrender, and they basically abandoned their weapons and were escorted aside.

Such a scene also made the defenders above Moling County look at it, and their morale couldn't help but weaken a little.

This kind of scene of watching their comrades being surrounded and captured by the enemy will be unwilling, but now they are unwilling but helpless, the result is that they are hesitant and worried in their hearts, afraid that they will eventually be surrounded and captured by Zhu Wei's army like these comrades outside the city.

How can you fight such a battle!

Han Dang also sensed the fluctuation in morale on the city gate, so he hurriedly ordered that as long as everyone kept watch for another day, he would take them to evacuate safely tomorrow, and he would reward them heavily at that time.

As a battlefield veteran, Han Dang was finally able to grasp the minds of these soldiers, so under his orders, the defenders in Moling County seemed to have regained some morale.

It was already two or three o'clock in the afternoon, as long as the city could be held until dark, as long as Zhu Wei's army would not be crazy enough to attack overnight, then it might not be a problem to hold until tomorrow.

After all, they are still protected by the tall city walls of Moling County, even if the siege arrow carts of the Zhu Wei army outside the city give them some threats, but under the protection of the shield, they can still resist the feather arrows.

However, all this is just wishful thinking on the part of the defenders of Moling County.

At this moment, Wang Yuyan has seen through the reality in Moling County, and naturally she will no longer be delayed by the troops left by Zhou Yu, so with her military order, she has just defeated the defenders of the two military villages outside the city, and Chen Heng and Yu Susuo, who are in high morale, temporarily retreat to the side to rest and wait for the battle.

And more than a dozen cave house cars pushed to the moat in front of Moling County, and began to fill in the moat to prepare for the follow-up siege, obviously Wang Yuyan has decided to take Moling County in a vain battle, and will never waste any more time.

Of course, if Zhou Yu has really retreated from Moling County, maybe the Tai Shici sent by Wang Yuyan before can also gain something.

When Wang Yuyan sent troops from the Niuzhu camp, she already had a general strategic plan.

Therefore, when she transferred Tai Shi Ci from the waterway to between Moling and Danyang, she gave Tai Shi Ci an order to wait for an opportunity to attack the east gate of Moling County, or to ambush Sun Ce's army retreating from Moling County between Moling and Danyang.

Of course, this specific opportunity needs to be grasped by Tai Shi Ci himself, Wang Yuyan also gave Tai Shi Ci a face-to-face lecture, and instructed Tai Shi Ci to consider some opportunities, and naturally asked him to cut off the contact between Moling and Danyang, and then pay attention to the situation in Danyang, and send the news that the reinforcements have arrived in Danyang.

Obviously, at that time, Wang Yuyan had already considered the possibility that Zhou Yu would withdraw his troops from Moling County due to lack of food, but he didn't expect Zhou Yu to retreat so quickly.

Now Wang Yuyan just doesn't know what Tai Shici can do, although Tai Shici has Wang Yuyan's military orders here, but how Tai Shici will carry out the military orders still depends on Tai Shici's own military quality and ability.

Therefore, Wang Yuyan can't delay too long on the side of Moling County now, as long as she breaks through Moling County, no matter whether Tai Shici stops Zhou Yu's retreat or not, she can also face the situation after Zhou Yu's retreat in time.

Wang Yuyan has already seen through the reality of Moling County, and Zhou Yu's troops left behind will definitely not be too much, so with the strength of her subordinates, and then considering the combat effectiveness of Zhou Yu's remaining soldiers, Wang Yuyan is naturally not worried that there may be too many casualties and consumption in attacking Moling County.

In this way, as the cave house car quickly filled in a section of the moat outside Moling County, it began to retreat to the rear.

Under the command of Wang Yuyan, Chen Heng and Yu Su, who had been resting for nearly half an hour, quickly rushed to Moling County with their soldiers and ladders for the siege of the city.

With the archers on the siege cart to cover, the strength of the defenses they will encounter during the siege will also be reduced considerably.

The defenders on the city walls must be protected with shields before they can defend the city with bows and arrows, falling rocks, rolling logs and other means of defending the city, but there will definitely be many flaws in the panic, so these defenders are not killed and wounded by the archers on the siege carts outside the city.

Once the defenders on the city wall are killed or wounded, the effect of defending the city will definitely be discounted, and it will be easier for the besieging Zhu guards to rush up the city wall.

However, the siege battle was still brutal.

Although there was the cover of the archers on the siege arrow cart, the six or seven thousand siege soldiers commanded by Chen Heng and Yu Yu quickly suffered more than 1,000 casualties in the process of climbing the city wall, which was unprecedented in the attack on the two defenders' villages outside the city.

But under Wang Yuyan's strong order, Chen Heng and Yu Su did not dare to slack off, but kept urging their soldiers to climb the city and attack the city.

"Rush! Kill! ”

"Ahh

"Boom......"

"Bang... Whoa......"

All kinds of rushing and killing sounds, screams, and the sound of the ladder frame being blown up kept intermingling in the siege battle, making the sun in the sky seem to fall slowly to the west side as if it was a little unbearable.

Seeing that the time was a little biased towards the evening, and the efficiency of the siege in front was not high, Wang Yuyan sent people to prepare to use the secret weapon of Zhu Wei's army, firecracker grenades......
