Chapter 621: The Siege

Jingxian changed hands, Dongshui County attacked and defended, and then Chenghui Prefecture 5,000 troops went out to fight, but most of them were captured, and now they are even counterattacked to the bottom of the city.

In the view of Feng Ji of Tan Wangfu, there is nothing bad about these things, once Tan Wangfu completely gains a foothold in Tanzhou, then it is inevitable to attack Chenghuizhou, under such a premise, the current Chenghui is naturally more chaotic and better, the more troops are consumed, and it will be easier for Tanwangfu to take Chenghuizhou.

Especially when she knew that Chenghui Prefecture sent 5,000 troops to be destroyed, and Zhuzhu County immediately sent 4,000 troops to counterattack, Feng Ji was even more eager for them to fight more, because this means that the places of Chenghui Prefecture and five counties add up to more than 10,000 troops, although they belong to several forces, but once Tanwangfu sends troops, all of them must be wiped out.

The main thing is that Feng Ji has little confidence in the newly recruited new army of Tan Wangfu, because of the special moment, each palace has considerable power, and Tanzhou does not have a great general's mansion, and the second is not as strong as Xiao Ji's wife.

However, marching and fighting is the business of the martial arts, the so-called prime minister under the horse, the general on the horse, how can it be so easy, this is Tanzhou, except for the rebellion in the past few years, there has been no war for many years, the literati themselves look down on the martial arts, and Tanzhou has no demand for the martial arts, where are there any talents.

Zhou Shaoyu held a poetry conference in Fucheng at the beginning, which can be regarded as a grand event. As soon as Zhou Shaoyu left, the Tan Wangfu also learned a good way, but it was held for martial artists, so it was definitely not enough to talk about the degree of excitement, at most, it was to go to see the freshness and despise martial arts.

However, the result was quite disappointing, and the first place in the final martial arts test was actually a tall and big dealer rough man, with a lot of strength, but he didn't know a move at all, and his head was a little woody, not to mention the art of war after the test, even if he wrote a name, he wouldn't be able to write a name, and he was purely illiterate, and Rao was so he still accepted it, and it was good to train him to be a guard.

As for the first in the art of war, the results are also disappointing, in short, this time the propaganda was not less, as much as possible to let people know and then participate, but the result was not to recruit a satisfactory talent at all.

The huge Tanzhou, if you really want to say, there must be talents in this area, but there is no way to attract them. As for the military attache that Tanzhou itself already has, Feng Ji said hehe, it can be seen from the previous two defeats of the rebellion that except for Qiu Mingyuan, who has gone to the north, there are really few people who have any ability.

The first time the rebellion was suppressed, the elite of the city was exhausted, and the result? It was also at that time that the five thousand elites in Tanzhou Capital City were almost consumed. And the second time, that is, the moment when Zhou Shaoyu made it, it turned out that there was no major rebellion, it was nothing more than a group of bandits, and the result was good, and the killing of good people was boiling, and in the end it turned back!

Although it didn't cause any serious consequences, this process is really speechless. At present, the training of the army is also a short general, so he will make do with it first.

Feng Ji didn't know how to train, but she just went to see it from time to time, but she could see that the progress was really satisfying. Compared with the slow progress of the Tan Wangfu, the people of Chenghui are non-stop, everyone knows that the veterans who have been on the battlefield for a long time are definitely not a little stronger than the recruits, and Mo said that the Tan Wangfu does not have a numerical advantage now, not to mention that the quality cannot keep up.

In such a situation, even if Feng Ji has a plan and has ideas about Chenghuizhou, she is powerless.

"Sure enough, I still want to make it simple." Feng Ji smiled helplessly and self-deprecatingly, thinking that when she was in Beijing, she felt that there was nothing more tiring than this, but after she came to Tanzhou, she realized that those who had been were just pediatrics.

No matter what Feng Ji thinks, Zhou Shaoyu, who is far away in Chenghuizhou, is indeed besieging the capital city of Chenghuizhou, and as for the county seat next to it, it has already been taken on the road.

Attacking the city does not mean coming to the outside of the city to list a phalanx and then rushing upward, even the Turks, who are seriously lacking siege equipment, know how to suppress it with bows and arrows. Not to mention the defenders in the city, for Zhou Shaoyu, it is really not less.

Zhou Shaoyu sent a total of 4,000 troops, but he recruited a large number of young people, came to the city to surround it on all sides, set up camps outside the city, and immediately began to dig horizontal ditches and set up fences, in order to prevent sneak attacks and raids to break through and the like.

On the other side, Wan Qiaoqiao led the craftsmen to start working non-stop and began to build catapults.

Because of the relationship between taking Jingxian County, although the number of people sent is large, it is barely enough to equip the army, but the relatively uniform clothes are distributed to other young people, making the illusion that there are strong soldiers on either side. Of course, an additional thousand people are hidden in order to be ready for emergencies.

In the city, when the three families saw this posture, where did they dare to move, since so many people attacked the city, then there was no need to ask? The 5,000 people sent out must be all finished, and the 5,000 people are gone, not to mention the more than 3,000 people in the city? Guard, the three families smiled bitterly, and then tried their best to recruit as many strong men as possible to go to the city, as for the means, it was nothing more than coercion and temptation.

According to common sense, the siege of the city should be based on the siege of three que, but this also depends on the specific situation, and the current Chenghui Prefecture capital city is not very suitable.

Fucheng is the nest of the three families, entrenched here for decades, built a huge family business, not to say abandon and abandon, may not be willing to break through, after all, it is not yet to be completely desperate, if it is good to defend the city, but if it is to escape, those soldiers may not be willing to follow along, and the people in the city, it is impossible to really belong to it, and it is not a foreign invasion, and the city will be slaughtered at every turn.

Moreover, once so many people break through, Zhou Shaoyu doesn't have the confidence to stop them all, in fact, it's not a big problem to escape, these people can't afford to make any big waves, but the problem can't stand up to them, they have already guessed that this Chenghui is already a monopoly, once the news spreads, then it will not be far from the encirclement and suppression of the Xingwu Army, why bother, Zhou Shaoyu did not plan to fight with the Xingwu Army in Chenghuizhou.

Chenghui is too backward, and it is not good to develop and develop people's livelihood when there is that time.

Fucheng is not out, Zhou Shaoyu is not in a hurry to attack, while letting several teams of people take turns to shout, the content is nothing more than preferential treatment, will not slaughter the city, will not loot Yunyun, and then wait for the catapult to speed up the construction, since there is this thing, why waste human lives to attack.
