In the Yan army's big tent, Murong Jun's face was very bad, the attack on the first day was not smooth, the soldiers of the Great Yan Kingdom paid a lot of casualties, but they did not get the results they deserved, and the morale of the troops participating in the battle declined, for this reason, Murong Jun's heart was naturally very anxious.

"This king really didn't expect that the resistance of the Buyeo people was so stubborn, this is really a bit abnormal, could it be that the combat power of the warriors of my Great Yan Kingdom has decreased?" Murong Jun opened his mouth and said.

"Your Majesty, the soldiers and horses of Buyeo are close to half of our army, and they rely on the city wall to confront our army, occupying a great advantage, and it is inevitable that our army will suffer setbacks, but as long as our army sums up the experience of defeat, the next battle will definitely be victorious." A Yan courtier said.

"Yes! Your Majesty, my Great Yan Kingdom will definitely be able to break through the Fuyu Royal City. Another courtier said.

Murong Jun looked at Murong Ke and said, "Fourth brother thinks that with the current state of resistance of the Fuyu people, can my Great Yan Kingdom capture the Fuyu Royal City before the Jin army reinforces it." ”

Murong Ke thought for a moment, and said: "Second brother, the younger brother is at least ninety percent sure that he can break through the Fuyu Royal City in the next two days." ”

"However, today's casualties are indeed a bit large!" Murong Jun said with some dissatisfaction, this battle was commanded by Murong Ke, and it was also Murong Jun's responsibility to suffer heavy casualties.

Murong Ke smiled and said: "Second brother, the casualties of our army today are relatively large, because the younger brother does not understand the defensive methods of the Buyeo people, so he can only take the method of continuous testing to attack the Fuyu royal city, and the casualties are naturally relatively large. ”

"Oh, I see, so, I'm relieved. Let the soldiers rest for a day, recuperate their spirits, and launch a more fierce attack on the Fuyu Royal City tomorrow. Murong Jun Zhengse ordered.

"Yes, second brother. I know what to do. Murong Ke nodded in response.

King Buyeo asked his 20,000 horses to be on duty at night to prevent the Yan army from attacking the royal city at night, but the 20,000 army waited all night and did not find the shadow of the Yan army. It can be said that I waited all night in vain.

However, early in the morning of the second day, more than 200,000 troops of Yan Kingdom came to Fuyu City again, and this time, Yan Guo transferred more siege equipment, and the siege formation also changed a lot.

After a period of attack, the Buyeo soldiers and horses defending the city suffered heavy losses, while the casualties of the Yan State were relatively small, and the situation became more and more favorable to the attacking Yan army.

Watching the Yan army become more and more dominant. Murong Jun was very excited and asked his army to continue the attack in order to break through the Buyeo Royal City.

Compared with Murong Jun's excitement, the face of the King of Buyeo began to become ugly, the number of soldiers and horses of the Yan Kingdom was more than twice that of Buyeo, but at this moment the casualties were less than those of the Buyeo soldiers and horses, which made him a little unable to sit still, if this continues, the Buyeo soldiers and horses will become more and more weak, and the Buyeo Royal City is also very likely to be lost.

King Buyeo looked at several of his courtiers. Puzzled, he said: "In yesterday's decisive offensive and defensive battle, the casualties of the Yan army were twice as many as our army, but today they are only half of our army, why did things suddenly turn around." What the hell is going on, who of you knows? ”

"Great King, today the army of Yan Kingdom has added a lot of siege equipment, and its strength has naturally increased a lot, but our army has 20,000 soldiers who have not rested at night, so the combat power will naturally decline. Under the advantages of the other, the army of Yan naturally occupies a considerable advantage, while our army is in a relatively weak position. A Buyeo courtier explained.

When the king of Fuyu heard this, he was naturally very angry, Yan Guo added some siege equipment, and the strength was not significantly enhanced, it was impossible to cause such a huge reversal, and let 20,000 soldiers and horses be on guard at night, it was also to prevent just in case, and it was his own idea, the courtiers analyzed it like this, wouldn't they blame him.

"These are not reasons at all, this king thinks that it is the pride of the enemy that you and the soldiers have underestimated after yesterday's victory, and this is the fundamental reason for the huge casualties of our army." King Buyeo said loudly.

When the courtiers saw that the king of Buyeo was angry, they all bowed their heads and did not speak, so as not to cause the king of Buyeo to be even more angry.

"Great King, the siege of the Yan army is becoming more and more fierce, and the current situation is already precarious, if this situation continues, the royal city may not be able to hold out until the Jin army arrives." A Buyeo courtier said worriedly.

King Fuyu frowned and thought for a moment, and said: "Pass the order, let all the young and middle-aged people in the city go to the city to help defend it, we must hold the royal city, and we must not let the Yan army break through." ”

"Yes, my lord, my subordinates understand." The courtiers of Fuyu took the order and left.

Obviously, at this moment, the situation has reached an extremely dangerous point, in order to defend the Buyeo King City, the Buyeo King did not hesitate to use all the manpower and material resources in the city, after all, once the city is broken, everything will be lost, so what is there to pity?

In order to break through the Buyeo royal city as soon as possible, the besieging army of the Yan State launched an attack from three directions, leaving only one direction for the Buyeo army to escape, in order to break the city as soon as possible.

Under a series of attacks, the Buyeo soldiers defending the city suffered extremely heavy losses, and the Buyeo royal city was already in danger, as if it could be breached at any time, but under the orders of the Buyeo king, all the young and middle-aged people in the city joined in the responsibility of defending the city, and for this reason, the situation was quickly stabilized.

In the evening, the Yan army returned again, but this time, the expressions of the Yan soldiers were obviously better than yesterday, because their casualties on this day were smaller than the Buyeo army defending the city, although they failed to break through the Buyeo royal city, but they caused great damage to the Buyeo army, and caused heavy losses to the Buyeo soldiers and horses.

The only thing that made the soldiers of Yan State angry was that a large number of young and middle-aged people in Buyeo Wangcheng had all joined the ranks of defending the city, if it weren't for that, Buyeo Wangcheng would have been breached by them, which could not but be said to be a pity.

"Your Majesty, on this day, our army fought extremely happily, and taught the Buyeo army a good lesson, if it weren't for the sudden emergence of a large number of Buyeo people on the city, the Buyeo royal city would have been broken by our army." A Yan general walked into the big tent and said excitedly.

Murong Jun nodded, and said with a straight face: "Today's situation, this king has seen it, the performance of the soldiers is indeed very commendable, you can rest assured, after the capture of the Fuyu Royal City, half of the wealth in the city will be rewarded to the soldiers." ”

"Thank you, the king." The soldiers of the Yan Army clasped their fists and thanked him.

Murong Jun looked at Murong Ke and said, "Tomorrow is the last day, and we must break through the Fuyu Royal City." Otherwise, the situation becomes complicated when Jin reinforcements arrive. ”

"Second brother direction, before dusk tomorrow. The younger brother will definitely be able to take the royal city of Buyeo. Murong Ke said confidently.

"Report, Wang, the forward scout sent back the news that the soldiers and horses of Wang Meng's army of the Jin army had already set off, but they only walked half a day's journey in one day. At this time, there were still about two days to go from here, and at the current speed of the Jin army, it would take another four days to arrive. At this moment, the news came from the Jin army's Wang Meng's department.

Murong Jun and all the generals under his command were stunned when they heard this, and the Jin army's march to the Fuyu King City was enough to prove that the Buyeo King and the Jin army were indeed in collusion, but. The Jin army deliberately slowed down half of its marching speed, but they were very surprised, what did the Jin army want to do so slowly?

"Your Majesty, the Jin Army's Wang Meng's troops deliberately marched slowly, it must be in order to let the soldiers and horses of Fuyu and my Dayan Kingdom work hard to lose their strength, so that they can reap the benefits of the fisherman." A courtier of the Yan Kingdom frowned and analyzed.

"Yes, Your Majesty. This must be the case, and we can't find a better reason than that. Another Yan State courtier said.

Murong Jun nodded, and said with a straight face: "What you said is right. It is indeed possible that this is the case, but this is also a good thing for my Great Yan Kingdom, the slow march of the Jin army provides more time for my Great Yan Kingdom to break through the Fuyu Royal City, so. This king doesn't have to worry about whether he can break through the Buyeo Royal City tomorrow, of course, the fourth brother can't slack off because of this, and he still has to continue to attack the Buyeo Royal City with all his might. ”

"What the second brother said is that the younger brother understands." Murong Ke responded.

In the Fuyu royal city, the king of Buyeo looked very anxious in his heart, this day's attack and defense of the city, Fuyu nearly 100,000 troops suffered heavy casualties, at least half of the soldiers and horses lost their combat effectiveness, and the remaining half also had a lot of wounded, and there was a decline in combat effectiveness, if he did not urgently mobilize the young and middle-aged people in the city to help defend the city, the royal city may have been breached.

"King, as long as our army holds out for one more day, the main force of the Jin army will arrive, and then we can stand on the city wall and watch the army of Yan Kingdom being slaughtered." Seeing that the king of Buyeo was in a bad mood, a courtier comforted him.

King Fuyu sighed and said helplessly: "More than half of our army has suffered casualties, and the attack of the Yan army is getting sharper and sharper, I am afraid that tomorrow's battle, our army will not be able to resist the attack of the Yan army at all, and the fall of the city is only in the mundane." ”

"The king, no, definitely not, there are more than 100,000 people in the city, let them all go to the city to help defend it, so that they can definitely defend the city." The courtier persuaded.

"Let the people of the whole city go to the city to help defend it, even if the army of Yan fails to break through the royal city, my Fuyu's vitality will be exhausted, sad, it's really sad!" King Buyeo said lonely.

"What the king said is, however, our army and the Yan army have been fighting bloody battles for two days, and the casualties on both sides are very huge, and today's people going to the city to help defend have angered the Yan army, but I am afraid that the Yan army will choose to slaughter the city to retaliate after breaking the city! Therefore, no matter what the cost, we must defend the royal city. ”

King Buyeo was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You're still right, the Yan army and I, Buyeo, have a deep hatred, and the day the city is broken is the day when the city is slaughtered, so we must not let Buyeo break through the royal city." ”

Subsequently, the king of Buyeo ordered his courtiers to carry out an emergency mobilization throughout the city, so that all the people who could take up weapons joined the siege of the royal city, and warned them that they could only hope for life if they fought to the death, and that surrender would only lead to slaughter, so as to arouse the enthusiasm of the people for war.

#####

On the road to the Buyeo Royal City, Wang Meng and his 80,000 troops marched slowly, looking extremely comfortable and leisurely, and they were not worried about the imminent fall of the Buyeo Royal City.

After all, what Wang Meng wanted to do most was to let the strength of Buyeo and Yan be severely damaged at the same time, so as to reduce the casualties that the Great Jin army might suffer.

As for the question of whether the Buyeo army will not be able to hold the royal city, Wang Meng is not worried at all, because he is very clear about the strength of the Buyeo and Yan armies, and believes that Buyeo will hold the royal city at all costs under the promise of reinforcements from the Jin army, and the Jin army will suddenly kill from the back of the Yan army when they are about to hold on, so as to completely defeat the exhausted Yan army.

The reason why Wang Meng let his army march slowly is entirely because his army has long been targeted by Yan State scouts, if he marches too fast, Yan State may choose to give up attacking the Buyeo Royal City and flee farther north, so that the plan to annihilate most of the Yan army's living forces in Buyeo will be frustrated, and this is obviously not the situation that Wang Meng wants to see.

Of course, because Wang Meng's army attracted all the scouts of the Yan Kingdom, for this reason, the 100,000 troops under Zhang Hao's command who were ambushed in the valley became an invisible elite army of soldiers.

Wang Meng asked them to go out day and night, take advantage of the daytime to rest, and as soon as it was dark, they immediately set out of camp, take the north path and run as fast as possible in the direction of Buyeo Wangcheng, so as to arrive near Buyeo Wangcheng before the time agreed with Buyeo, and wait for an opportunity to raid the main force of the Yan army from behind and defeat the Yan army in one fell swoop.

As for the secret operations of Zhang Oyster's army, none of the Jin soldiers were clear, only Wang Meng and one of his henchmen knew about it, in order to prevent the news from being leaked.

"General, the fierce battle in the royal city of Fuyu is in full swing, our army should speed up the march, such a slow march, I am afraid that when our army arrives in the royal city, the city has been broken by the army of Yan State." A general who didn't understand Wang Mengliang's hard work opened his mouth and said.

Wang Meng glanced at the general, and said, "The general has his own plans, so you don't have to ask." After speaking, his expression was extremely relaxed.

Seeing this, Han Yong felt that Wang Meng seemed to be hiding something, after all, after getting along for so many days, he still knew something about Wang Meng, whenever Wang Meng's approach seemed very abnormal, it was often when a clever plan appeared, he vaguely felt that at this moment Wang Meng had arranged everything very properly, but they were all kept in the dark.

"Looking at General Wang's expression, you know that you have made up your mind, but the last general really can't see what tricks General Wang is playing! I don't know, can you reveal a thing or two. Han Yong asked with a frown.

Wang Meng grinned, and said, "Since it's a clever plan, you can't say it in advance, otherwise it won't work." ”

Seeing Wang Meng pretending to be mysterious, Han Yong had no choice but to give up. (To be continued.) )
