Chapter 420: Inner Blossoming
As a top giant city, Gwangjong City has a permanent population of tens of millions, and it covers a very large area. The city is also divided into two parts: the outer city and the inner city.
What Lu Zhi was committed to breaking through before was the outer city wall, which was the outermost and strongest barrier of Guangzong City. After that, there was an inner city wall. However, although the wall is just as tall and strong, its symbolism is much greater than its actual significance. In the siege warfare of the past dynasties, there are few people who can continue to resist the inner city after the outer city has been occupied by the enemy.
The outer part of the city is generally for ordinary residents, and the inner city is the residence of the powerful, wealthy businessmen, and high-level technical personnel. Some of the core buildings are also located in the inner city.
As the core of the city, the city lord's mansion is in the most central part of the inner city, and it is heavily guarded all year round, and the guard is extremely tight. In wartime, the city lord's mansion is the most important defense target, and the garrison force can be imagined.
"There will be something I don't understand in the end, and I ask Lu Gong to solve my doubts!"
"Speak!" Facing Lu Bu's doubts, Lu Zhi waved his hand and said directly.
"Since Captain Lu's digging army is so sharp, why don't you dig directly into the city lord's mansion, so that it will be easy to end the battle?"
As soon as Lu Bu's words fell, Lu Kun's face immediately turned red, and he wanted to argue with Lu Bu, but Lu Zhi smiled and waved his hand to calm him down.
"Haha, Feng Xian doesn't know, the giant city is not trivial, any one of them is the foundation of the Han Dynasty, and its effect is naturally far from being comparable to ordinary cities.
All the city lord's mansions at the level of giant cities have the function of automatic early warning, with the city lord's mansion as the center, within a range of five miles, any attempt to endanger the city will trigger the alarm of the heart of the city. In addition, the defense methods of the City Lord's Mansion are also comparable to those in ordinary areas, and even with Captain Lu's digging army, it is impossible to dig the tunnels under the City Lord's Mansion silently. ”
"With Lu Shi's meaning, we want to launch an attack five miles away from the City Lord's Mansion, and then capture the City Lord's Mansion?"
Liu Bei frowned, got up and asked in a condensed voice.
"Not five miles, but ten!" Lu Zhi's face also became solemn, and he explained: "Just in case, our tunnel is only dug ten miles away from the Guangzong City Lord's Mansion, and we don't dare to venture any further. ”
"How many soldiers can we dispatch?"
"Five thousand!" Lu Zhi turned his gaze to Shang Ji, stretched out his right hand and shook it, "In order to ensure that the operation will not be discovered, we can only dispatch five thousand soldiers at most!" In addition, due to the limitations of the tunnels and the terrain, we had to use foot soldiers. ”
For a while, everyone was silent, and with 5,000 people, they went to raid the city lord's mansion in the sea of people, even if everyone here were brave and daring, but they were also empty.
"This is our army's only chance to break through the enemy army and recover Guangzong!"
Seeing that everyone was silent, Lu Zhi emphasized another point.
"This battle, the last general is willing to go!"
After being silent for a while, Shang Ji was the first to speak.
Seeing Shang Ji speak, Lu Bu, who had been paying attention to his movements, grinned, and said to Lu Zhi: "Bu is also willing to go!" ”
"Hahaha, Master Lu has an order, how can the students not obey? Prepare for battle! Liu Bei smiled heroically and said to Lu Zhi Langsheng.
Gongsun Chan hesitated for a moment, and said the same: "Praise and please fight!" ”
"The last general is brave, and I hope that the brigadier general Lu Gongen will participate in the war!" Geng Wu's blood was boiling with excitement from several people, and he suddenly stood up and shouted loudly.
Ma Teng and Chun Yuqiong glanced at each other, got up helplessly and said, "Teng (Qiong) also asks for battle!" ”
"Hahaha!" Lu Zhi laughed loudly, and a rare flush appeared on his overworked face, "Okay, good!" You are all the pillars of the country! Rest assured, with a guarantee of personality, you will not be treated badly! ”
"Serve the country, dare not speak for profit. However, the last general had the courage to recommend himself as the commander of the surprise attack army, and asked Lu Gong for permission! ”
Shang Ji stepped forward and said in a loud voice.
"General Shang is wise and brave, everyone expects it, this request is approved by the old man!" After a little thought, Lu Zhi agreed to Shang Ji's request.
In terms of official positions, Shang Ji is second only to Lu Zhi, and his record in the round is slightly inferior to Lu Zhi, and his reputation is even more prosperous, and he is the first military general to ask for battle, so it is naturally more suitable to serve as the commander.
The rest of the people reacted indifferently, Lu Bu, Liu Bei and others had similar experiences and cooperated quite happily, so naturally they would not object, Ma Teng and Geng Wu belonged to newcomers, and they were defenseless when they first came, so they naturally did not dare to fight. Shang Ji got the identity of the commander so easily, this time he is the commander of the Eight Classics, not the leader of the grass platform team before!
"This is the old man's nephew, and he is also my personal commander Lu Song, and he will be responsible for assisting you in completing this battle plan." As he spoke, Lu Zhi pointed to a big man behind him and introduced it to everyone.
"The last general, Lu Song, has seen all the generals!" Lu Song took two steps forward and bowed.
Everyone also returned the salute.
"Due to space constraints, after careful consideration, the general decided to send the elite soldiers of the infantry battalion of the fifth school of the Northern Army to fight."
When everyone heard this, they suddenly felt a burst of energy, the Fifth Colonel of the Northern Army and the Northern Army sounded like the same thing, but everyone here knew how knowledgeable they were, and they knew how big the difference was between the two!
The Fifth School of the Northern Army is a high-level special army, which is divided into cavalry battalions, cavalry battalions, and Changshui battalions, infantry battalions of heavy infantry, and special marksmen battalions.
The number of non-commissioned officers of the five colonels is not large, even the largest infantry battalion is only 20,000 people, but each of them is a carefully selected elite, and any non-commissioned officer is enough to serve as a middle-level officer in the ordinary army.
The Five Colonels of the Northern Army and the Sanhe Jingcai were the most important pillars of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and to some extent, it can even be said that their status is still above the Yulinwei who is dedicated to defending the Beijing Division.
"In this battle, the elite of the five schools came out, and the flag was won!"
Geng Wu was still a little worried, but when he heard that it was the fifth colonel of the Northern Army who was dispatched, he immediately put his mind at ease and said confidently.
"This battle needs to go deep into the hinterland of the enemy, the wolves look around, although the soldiers of the five schools are fine, they are not invincible, and they will be damaged if they are surrounded by elite yellow turban immortals, Wen Wei must not be careless!" Lu Zhi's face sank, and he reprimanded in a low voice.
"The last general will know his mistakes, remember the teachings of Lu Gong!" Geng Wu hurriedly put away his smug expression and bowed his head to admit his mistake.
Lu Zhi nodded and said, "For the time being, everyone will go back to the camp, arrange the things in the camp, and then come back." Early tomorrow morning, I will arrange for the army to launch a full-scale attack on Gwangjong City, and try to contain as many enemy forces as possible for you.
Once you successfully break through the Castle Lord's Mansion and destroy the Heart of the City, choose to occupy it immediately. As long as you hold out for two quarters of an hour, you can use the privilege of the Heart of the City to destroy the walls. ”
As he spoke, Lu Zhi's face was full of murderous intent: "The moth thief has no city wall as a barrier, and he must not be the opponent of our army, and when the time comes, we will attack inside and outside, which is enough to annihilate the enemy army in one go!" You will all be the heroes of the Han Dynasty, and it is no longer a problem to seal your wife and son! ”
"Wan Sheng!"
Everyone was also enthusiastic when they heard it, and they couldn't wait to rush into the city and kill them now.
