"Withdraw troops? Where to retreat? At this time, how can you withdraw troops at will? Xizhou has just been established, this Dawan Wusun has just been defeated, Kangju and Dayue have just offended, at this time we withdrew, did Dawan Wusun let it go back again, did Xizhou become the former Western Regions again, so why did we spend so much effort this time? Wei Yan unceremoniously regarded Dawan as if he had been destroyed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"I told you that I was just speculating, what are you in a hurry. At the moment, it is useless for us to think too much, and when we look back and see the teacher, it will be clear. It's better to think about how to take down the fortified city in front of you as quickly as possible. ”
"Alas, damn it, I originally wanted to save this grenade, but now it's okay, this battle is estimated to consume a lot. Damn, let's go, I can't bear to let the child fight the wolf, it's cheap to be like these rabbit cubs. ”
Wei Yan was very unhappy and scolded.
According to the original battle plan, there was no such thing as the large-scale use of grenades. There is only one grenade for each new soldier as standard, and there are only two for the flying army, and they are only used at critical times. The grenade is no better than the crossbow arrow, after the crossbow arrow is shot, it can also be recycled, and the grenade is one less to throw one, and the supply is difficult. At present, there are only production bases in Chengdu and Hanzhong, and if you want to replenish them, you must transport them all the way from Yizhou. The production base in Liangzhou is still under construction, and it will not be able to supply the large-scale demand in the Western Regions in the short term.
Now there is no way, if you want to capture Guishan City as soon as possible, you can only break the city violently. Nowadays, in order to pursue combat results, there is no longer so much to care about.
After a hurried breakfast, everything was ready to stop.
Hour and minute.
The Han army attacked from four directions in Guishan City at the same time.
There were already watchmen in the city, and the Han army began to toss early in the morning, before dawn, which had already alarmed the defenders of the city. Hurriedly reported to the commander of the city defenders. The main general who defended the city went to the city to take a look, damn it, what kind of wind is the Han army pumping, what is it that is tossing blindly early in the morning, do you still want to attack the city. Attacking the city on such a cold morning, the Han army is crazy, and sprinkling water into ice at this time, whether it is with a ladder or a battering ram, it is not a good way. However, the defenders of the city still didn't dare to be careless, watching the Han army below still rise from the cooking flue, and the defenders in the city had no choice but to pull everyone up, let the room start boiling water and cooking, and prepare to keep pace with the Han army.
You cook, I cook; You use rice, and I use rice; You rest, I rest; You will attack the city, and I will not let you attack it.
Dawan's soldiers, in history, can make the Han army during the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty twice drink and hate the fortified city, and they can't attack for dozens of days, so they naturally have two brushes.
Siege warfare is never the best option.
That's why people built cities to ward off attacks from outside.
In the case of equal strength, the battle loss ratio of 2:1 or even 3:1 is tolerable when attacking and defending the city. Many siege battles are often difficult to overcome with countless casualties, and no matter how many lives they pile up, they are useless.
Therefore, there was nothing to be ashamed of when the Han army failed to attack the city. After all, it is an expeditionary operation, one lacks siege equipment, the second is short of military supplies, food and grass supplies, and the third is a long-distance operation, and the military and the people do not belong to it.
The defenders in Guishan City had already prepared a large number of materials for the Han army to defend the city, such as stones, fire oil, bows and arrows, etc., waiting for the Han army to come and send them to death.
Hour and minute.
The Han army was fully equipped, lined up, and began to attack the city.
The defenders had also had breakfast, and they climbed the city wall, drew their bows and arrows, and prepared to defend the city.
"Crossbowmen, suppress the defenders on both sides of the city gate with dense firepower!"
Wei Yan gave an order, and the new army stepped forward one after another, walked to the place where the crossbow arrows were arrowed, and then began to pour crossbow arrows intensively on the city, completely changing the style of cherishing crossbow arrows in the past, and the arrows were like water splashing, suppressing the defenders on both sides of the city gate, and they couldn't show their heads at all, let alone fight back.
"Bombardier prepare, go!"
Another order was given, and I saw two horses rushing out from behind, and the knights on the horses each held a bundle of grenades in their arms, the back cover of the grenade had been unscrewed, and all the leads were carefully tied together.
The two horses rushed forward, and the defenders beside the city saw it very well and shouted loudly, but the defenders in the vicinity were completely suppressed, and even if they could occasionally shoot an arrow desperately, they often did not have the right head; The defenders in the distance have a limited range of bows and arrows, and even if they are just enough, they have no strength, and they cannot be effective at all.
In the blink of an eye, the two horses rushed to the vicinity of the city gate, only to see the two shouting: "Ready, throw!" Then he threw two bundles of grenades into the gate of the city, and the two horses, one on the left and one on the right, separated along the base of the wall.
When the people in the city saw this, they hurried from behind the battlements to shoot arrows.
That is, in an instant, there was a loud bang, the entire city wall trembled, and the defenders of the city not only had their ears buzzing, but their bodies were shaken, and many people were shocked to the ground.
Immediately afterwards, the Han army trumpet whimpered, and then saw that the Han army had swarmed like a tide.
Everyone was surprised, and when they looked at it again, the smoke had not yet dispersed, and the Han army had already rushed into the city.
The gates of the city were blown away.
"Rush down and kill the enemy, kill them all!" Finally, a guard reacted and yelled loudly.
As soon as the roar fell, boom, boom, boom, one after another explosions came, there were explosions at the east, west, north and south, four huge pillars of smoke rose, and then there was the overwhelming shouting of the Han army.
The four gates fell one after another.
In less than a quarter of an hour, all four gates of the outer city fell.
All blown up.
The Dawan defenders in the city were all stunned.
On the one hand, it was shocked by the sound of the explosion, and on the other hand, what was happening in front of me was too shocking to accept.
The impregnable Guishan City was breached in a blink of an eye, and it was only a few minutes?
However, the Han army that flocked into the city did not care so much, and the sound of swishing crossbow arrows blew like the wind, and soon swept away the defenders on the outer city walls. Immediately afterwards, the old trick was repeated, boom boom four explosions, the inner city gate opened, and Guishan City completely fell.
On the inner side of the city, many defenders had not had time to reach the city before the Han army rushed in.
The people in the city had no idea that the Han army would break through the inner and outer gates so quickly, and in such a brutal way, in a way that they could not imagine at all.
"Anyone who bears a weapon will be shot!"
The Han army rushed forward, shouting as they cleared all suspicious objects in sight.
In the second year of Jian'an of the Han Dynasty, winter, wax moon, and the eighth day of the first month.
Liu Zhang led the army westward, and within one day, he broke through the two cities of Chigu and Guishan, and destroyed Dawan and Wusun. The princes were shaken, and the nations were terrified, and they sent an endless stream of people to ask for sin. Liu Zhang's testament: None are allowed! (To be continued.) )
