Chapter 1256 A good show(1/2)
At this time, the silence in Liang Jun's camp had been completely broken.
The regular troops of the former army are quickly gathering to suppress the civilians, and the east and west armies are outflanking them.
The Chinese army quickly dispatched and was on guard in front of Wuyou City.
Various battle orders were passed around at a gallop.
Liang Jun's camp was very large. After all, there were too many troops. It was no exaggeration to say that it spanned several miles from east to west, north to south.
It's just a regular army, and it can be mobilized without any chaos.
Fan Cang, the general of the town's border army, was arranging to assemble the army and was ordered to prevent the enemy from attacking out of the city.
Our own side can think of it, how can the enemy not think of it?
At the same time, some soldiers quickly rushed to the north camp to warn them.
Liang's army was divided into two, guarding the north and south of Wuyou City, completely surrounding it.
However, if the enemy troops want to leave the city to attack, they will only come out from the south gate. After all, the turmoil occurred in the south camp.
In preparation for war, the soldiers were all sleeping in their armor, and they gathered and reorganized very quickly.
Fan Cang first organized a force of 100,000 troops and was about to arrive in front of the city when Zhu Zhen's order arrived.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has given an order. General Fan does not need to lead his troops to Wuyou City first. He must stay where he is and wait for orders."
"What?"
Hearing this order, Fan Cang was a little confused.
This obviously conflicts with His Majesty's will.
Moreover, there was a civilian riot in our own military camp. Shouldn't we be prepared for the enemy to leave the city and attack at this time?
"Is this definitely an order from His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"yes!"
"General Fan, His Royal Highness intends to let the enemy troops leave the city and then annihilate them. If we react too quickly and pull the army to the city in advance, the enemy may not leave the city..."
Ling Bing's explanation made Fan Cang suddenly realize.
This is really an opportunity.
Wuyou City has a strong and thick wall that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
If not, why would they use this strategy of driving people away and attacking the city?
His Highness also knows how to seize opportunities.
"Understood."
Fan Cang said: "I will be here on standby at any time!"
"By the way, His Highness has sent orders to the Tianxiong Army, right?"
"Um."
"good!"
Fan Cang nodded secretly.
If it can really happen, then this riot among the people will be a good thing...
At the same time.
Li Chengliang, the left deputy general of the Zhenbian Army, also received orders from Zhu Zhen.
He rushed to the front army and immediately commanded the mobilization of troops to suppress the civilian rebellion.
This time the scale is not small and has become quite impressive.
If there are hundreds or thousands of people, any problems can be dealt with quickly.
These are tens of thousands of people, even if they are doing nothing, it would be a dark place here, not to mention they are very fast now.
If it is not handled in time, big problems may occur.
Li Chengliang's method of containment is also very simple, that is, to kill to stop killing. Now that the civilians have become red-eyed, they can no longer persuade them, so they can only use this method.
The civilian husband was in the middle of the front camp, directly facing Wuyou City, which was convenient for him to attack the city every day.
The advantage is that there are regular troops stationed on both sides of the camp, and the encirclement can prevent the unrest from expanding.
It's just that the incident happened suddenly and the scale of the incident was so large that they were very passive.
In the early days, all the soldiers on top were killed. Counting the warlords, there should have been thousands of casualties.
What a disaster!
Li Chengliang knew in his heart that the evil consequences were all caused by His Highness the Crown Prince.
Too harsh on civilians.
However, His Highness the Crown Prince has always been like this. He is considered a direct descendant and knows a lot about Zhu Zhen.
Just like that incident back then, it was clearly his fault, but the result was that His Highness got a bad rap.
Later, there was no compensation, and he still lived in the imperial mausoleum.
Now he can still recall the scene when His Highness faced the enemy alone...
Shaking away the messy thoughts, Li Chengliang gave orders one after another.
The initial suddenness had passed, and he had commanded the army to surround the civilians on all sides. The soldiers at the forefront had erected a shield wall to surround them all.
The civilians only have simple weapons, unlike the regular army which has a variety of military coordination, which reflects the gap.
The shield hand holds it in front, leaving a gap between the shield and the shield. The pikeman sticks out the spear head from the gap and kills all those who attack.
The peasants had only a sense of motivation and little structure. Once they were surrounded, they would be pushed back and forth and crowded, making it difficult to achieve anything.
Seeing that the siege was formed, Li Chengliang breathed a sigh of relief. Even if the civilians could break through the first layer of defense, there would be a second layer of shield soldiers to completely surround them.
At this time, the archers at the rear can shoot arrows inward and kill many people.
But he has been unable to issue this order.
I don’t know how many people have died now. Do we really want to kill them all?
They are also innocent!
The sentimental Li Chengliang was very hesitant.
He was thinking about whether to ask His Majesty for instructions.
At this time, Zhu Zhen's order arrived.
"His Royal Highness has an order that you do not need to suppress excessively. You can slow down slightly and extend the duration of the riot."
The soldiers relayed Zhu Zhen's orders word for word, which made Li Chengliang look confused.
He could understand every word, but he couldn't understand them all together.
No need to suppress too much, maybe slow down a little?
What kind of order is this?
"What does this mean?"
"That's what it means."
"That's what His Highness means."
Ling Bing added another sentence.
"I am asking what your Highness's original intention is!"
Li Chengliang resisted the urge to curse.
He was asking for orders, but the soldier was playing tongue twisters with him.
"His Royal Highness wants to take this opportunity to attract the enemy troops out of the city to attack, but he is afraid that if we suppress it quickly, the enemy troops will be unable to come out..."
"Can't you explain this clearly?"
Li Chengliang reacted immediately.
It's just to make the enemy see this place more chaotic.
Your Highness wants to use this as bait to attract enemy troops out of the city.
But this is difficult to do.
We need to control, but we cannot control it forcefully.
Isn't this embarrassing?
Now that the encirclement has finally been formed, if we relax it, won't all the previous efforts be in vain?
What's more, if you relax a little, the civilians will take advantage of it, which will cause casualties to the soldiers!
In other words, the lives of soldiers are used as bait!
To be continued...
