Chapter 396: Stingy
When Pingcheng heard the news that the reinforcements had been killed and the entire army was annihilated, there was an uproar. The captives that Fazheng sent back boasted about the power of Zhentianlei, as if there was someone in the Guanzhong army who could control thunder. The guard of Pingcheng was in awe.
Under Fazheng's order, Ma Chao did not immediately attack the city. Zhang Xiu brought people over the next day. Under Fazheng's arrangement, he entered the camp during the day and left at night, giving the impression that this was the main battlefield.
On the fifth day, Fazheng sent people to persuade them to surrender, the reinforcements were defeated, and the enemy army was increasing. In addition, Fazheng offered good conditions, and the general of Pingcheng finally decided to surrender in Kaesong.
The 2,000 defenders of Pingcheng were surrendered without a single battle.
Xiaozhi, what should we do with these surrendered soldiers? Ma Chao looked worried at those surrendered soldiers. These surrendered soldiers must not be used on the frontal battlefield.
Fazheng selected two prudent generals from the army to serve as the Pingcheng generals, and transferred the Pingcheng surrendered generals to his side as the army's staff. The main general should refrain from provoking these troops to surrender and manage the army properly.
In this way, the generals of the descending army will be replaced, and the new generals in the army will be selected by the Guanzhong army. Not to mention that they are completely devoted to Guanzhong, but if they return to Yuan Jun, they will be considered rebels as far as Yuan Jun is concerned. It might be useful to assist the main general in running the army, not to mention how useful it would be, but at least on the premise of undefeated here, he would not mess around casually.
In this way, wouldn't our army's rear be guarded by these people? Ma Chao was a little worried. When he thought that the rear was guarded by surrendered troops, he felt that the food road might be cut off at any time.
The general wants to fight quickly, this method is the best. Fazheng didn't kill those surrendered generals, who knows if the surrendered army in the city has their confidantes, even if they want to kill them, they have to find a way to kill them after they leave Pingcheng.
Is it a quick fix?
Ma Chao nodded. With the method of Fazheng, there is no need to worry about the captives for the time being. This time, Zhang Xiu and Fazheng are in charge of the rear, and Ma Chao is in charge of fighting.
During this period of getting along, Fazheng can tell that the son-in-law of the lord is extremely capable, and the most important thing is that he is quite calm. On the frontal battlefield, he does not need to worry too much. On the contrary, he has to fight with Zhang Xiu at any time. Communicate so that problems can be responded to in a timely manner. In addition, if Ma Chao needs support, there is also a replacement here.
Ma Chao made up 3,000 soldiers and horses. In this expedition, in addition to the 3,000 elite cavalry, he also brought his clan brother Ma Dai to accompany the army. Ben Gaoliu City.
The soldiers and horses sent to support Pingcheng were defeated and returned, and the soldiers of Pingcheng surrendered directly. This made the high officials very angry, but after losing two battles in a row, nearly half of the 10,000 soldiers and horses in his hands were gone. How could he dare to go out of the city to fight again? ?
Ma Chao led his troops straight to the foot of Gaoliu City, looking at Gaoliu City with its gates tightly closed, Yuan Jun's soldiers were waiting in full force on the city wall, it seemed that they couldn't get any bargain.
Brother, the bandits don't want to go out of the city, so how do we fight this battle? Ma Dai frowned slightly after seeing the city's defenses. They were all cavalry, and it was not easy to attack the city.
Go and get a Thunder God Crossbow. Naturally, Ma Chao knew that it was impossible for the cavalry to attack the city, and the opponent was on guard again. After hesitating for a moment, he asked someone to fetch a Thunder God Crossbow.
Although I have used it before, I don't know how effective it is in siege. My stingy father-in-law only equipped himself with a hundred Thunder God crossbows, and only a thousand Thunder God arrows. If the effect is mediocre, he would rather find another way broken city.
Soon, a Thor crossbow was delivered to Ma Chao, and someone handed him a Thor arrow. Ma Chao wound the Thor arrow, ignited the fuse, and pulled the machine towards the direction of the city without careful aiming.
But seeing the Thunder God arrow flying out wobbly, it has lost its sight, which is why Ma Chao didn't aim. This thing is quite powerful, but the aim... depends on God's will.
In mid-air, Thor's arrow flew thirty steps away, and seemed to have exhausted all its strength. Just as the defenders were laughing, a burst of fire suddenly shot out from Thor's arrow, and then the Thor's arrow suddenly accelerated, appearing on the top of the city almost instantly superior.
Boom~
In a cluster of flames, the Thunder God arrow exploded the moment it shot into the parapet, half of the parapet broke and fell down with a crash, and the defenders behind the parapet were directly crushed to death by the parapet.
There was no sound on the city wall for a while. Although only one person was killed by this arrow, the power of Thor's arrow was horrifying.
Ma Chao had already seen the power of Thor's arrow. Looking at the blown half of the female wall, he felt a little confident in his heart. He immediately looked at Ma Dai and said, A group of nine, take turns to shoot an arrow towards the city gate!
There are not many Thunder God arrows, and Ma Chao is preparing to use them when he meets Yuan Jun's main force. It is not easy to use a hundred arrows now.
Here! Ma Dai agreed, and immediately ordered the others to remove the Thunder God crossbow and assemble the Thor arrows. They were divided into eleven groups of nine people, and they took turns shooting arrows towards the city gate.
The first row tried to shoot the crossbow arrows at the city gate as much as possible. When the arrows were about to exhaust themselves in the air, they suddenly accelerated, some pierced the city wall, and some hit the city gate. The target was the city gate, but only two arrows actually hit the city gate, and one of them even floated to the city wall. The defenders on the city wall were afraid to look up.
Boom boom boom~
For a while, near the city gate, the city wall around the city gate was riddled with holes. Standing on the city wall, one could clearly feel the shaking of the city wall, as if the city wall was about to collapse in the next moment.
It's a pity that after eleven rounds, they failed to break the city gate, which was also expected by Ma Chao. The Thunder God Crossbow was originally used by the two armies in front of the battle. The best way to break the city should be the Vulcan Cannon, but it's a pity that they couldn't bring it.
Quick, go and blow up the city gate! Seeing the smoke and dust from the bombing outside the city wall, it was difficult to see for a while, and the soldiers who had already prepared to detonate the thunder followed Ma Chao's order, and rushed out quickly to the city gate , stuff the detonating mines into the gaps in the city gates or directly into the pits blasted by Thor's arrows to ignite, and then quickly back away.
Boom boom boom~
After finally the smoke and dust cleared, seeing enemy troops approaching from under the city wall, Gao Gan was about to order to shoot arrows, when suddenly there was another series of explosions, and the whole city wall shook again.
But this time, the explosion was very concentrated, and the city wall shook even more violently. Gao Gan leaned against the city tower and squatted down to stabilize his figure, but he saw traces of cracks visible to the naked eye on the bluestone under his feet, and there were many more. The place collapsed.
Although Gaoliu City is the prefecture of Daijun, it is covered with a layer of stone bricks and rammed earth inside. When encountering this kind of explosion, even if it is not directly hit, the shock generated by the dozens of detonating mines being detonated at the same time It can still collapse some weak spots.
However, what was even worse was that as the strong vibration disappeared, a dull sound made Gao Gan's heart feel a little chilly.
Crack~squeak~boom~
General, something is wrong, the city gate has collapsed!
The sound of panic from the soldiers came faintly from below the city. The city gate was blasted violently, and the entire city gate was directly blown away from the city wall. With a dull sound, the city gate collapsed.
What the hell is that! ?
Quickly go down to the city to form an army, and never let the enemy enter the city!
Gao Gan gritted his teeth and cursed angrily, and then quickly ran down the city with his gun in hand. This was definitely the fastest defense battle ever broken, and it was also the most aggrieved defense battle. None of the attacking party died. Not only the city gate was broken, but several people died.
This ratio of casualties is completely reversed, and more importantly, the city where he was stationed by 5,000 people was now considered to be breached by the enemy with 3,000 cavalry without damage. He can definitely be called the most disgraced general in the world!
Whether it is to block the attack of the Guanzhong Army or to restore his reputation, the high-ranking officials must stop Ma Chao. In street fighting, cavalry is no match for infantry!
Bo Zhan, you take two thousand horses into the city and try to avoid the fire! Ma Chao looked at Ma Dai and said, his three thousand elite riders were all wearing rattan armor, once caught fire, they would surely die.
Here! Ma Dai agreed, and two thousand soldiers quickly dismounted, armed with rattan shields, and followed Ma Dai into the city.
As soon as he entered the city, there was a rain of arrows in front of him. Ma Dai retreated quickly, and two soldiers stood in front of Ma Dai holding rattan shields. Unscathed.
Immediately afterwards, the Guanzhong soldiers quickly raised their crossbows to fight back.
Yuan Jun's wooden shield is obviously not as good as the Guanzhong Army's rattan shield, and Yuan Jun doesn't all have armor. Compared with the Guanzhong elites wearing rattan armor, the armor alone is much worse.
The two sides fired at each other with continuous crossbows, and the elite of Guanzhong remained unscathed, but Yuan Jun suffered heavy casualties and was gradually suppressed.
Gao Gan looked at this scene a little hard to accept, even if the opponent was wearing iron armor, it was impossible to be unscathed, but only the rattan armor and rattan shield could block the continuous crossbow shooting.
Looking at the enemy army that was gradually pressing up, Gao Gan knew that he lost this battle, not because of his incompetence, but because the weapons in the opponent's hands were too terrifying, and the rattan armor was just invulnerable, but the whole army had it.
The heavy casualties are not terrible, what is terrible is that the opponent has not suffered any casualties until now. The root cause of the complete collapse of morale is the sense of desperation that no one can hurt the opponent even if they try everything.
Gao Gan withdrew, he was not afraid of death, but he couldn't do this kind of meaningless death, and the defenders in the city who had the same idea as him, they quickly retreated to the east of the city, opened the city gate, and fled in embarrassment. So far, Gaoliu City has also been breached, which also means that the main force of Yuan Jun in the entire Dai County was destroyed by Ma Chao.
This time, Ma Chao did not pursue, and quickly collected the weapons of the surrendered soldiers in the city, and then gathered the army to set up a list to calm the people.
After these years of training in benevolence and morality, the Guanzhong Army has deeply rooted in the concept of not keeping people's property. Coupled with the strict supervision of Ma Chao and Ma Dai, there was no killing of people after breaking the city, and the people did not do much when they saw this. Resisting, after Ma Chao stabilized the situation in the city, he quickly ordered someone to inform Fazheng to take over the city. He was going to continue to pursue and find Yuan Jun's main force in Youzhou to destroy...
