The battle at Tanziling was extremely fierce. Although the Cao family's private army resisted tenaciously, under the strength of the Northern Army, they were still beaten backwards. One defense circle after another was broken, and Xing Shu who was trapped in Jiangling was not without

After thinking about going to rescue, he once sent another strongest army under his command, the Wang family's private army, but as soon as the Wang family left the city, he encountered Jamukha's cavalry. If it were just cavalry, the Wang family army would still have confidence in fighting.

But when they saw the Modao team appearing in the distance, this confidence was quickly defeated, and the Wang family army quickly retreated to Jiangling City.

When he learned that the Modao team appeared outside Jiangling City, Xing Shu had no choice but to sigh to the sky. The Modao Army, the former weapon of the Dayue, has now survived, and has surrendered to Yun Zhao, the army of the Northern Expedition.

He could only watch Cao Ning support him with all his might. Just like Cao Ning, Xing Shu at this time, except for looking forward to sending reinforcements from Tongzhou as soon as possible, there was no good way to resolve this dilemma.

The Northern Army was fighting against Tanziling, but in Jiangling, they did not let Xing Shu be idle. On the third day after the battle against Tanziling, the attack on Jiangling also began.

The moat is the first difficulty that the Northern Army needs to overcome. Huo Zhenting and Zhou Guangyi are both veterans on the battlefield. They are a regular professional and have extremely rich experience in siege and defending the city. In the era of Wang Haogu's brief description, the two were already

The general is now. Faced with such a city, the two of them quickly came up with a solution.

On the north wall of Jiangling, a huge siege car was slowly pushed to the moat. In the surprised gaze of the defenders on the city, the huge siege car was pushed directly into the moat with the rumbling sound, siege car was directly pushed into the moat.

The bottom of the car was tightly tied to sandbags filled with sand and stone. After falling into the water, the siege car would not be taken away by the water. The siege car of the Zhengbei Army was simple to construct and easy to make, but to put it bluntly, it was huge.

The log is a pillar, and a base is added below. The base is equipped with wheels. The middle is empty. A wooden platform is above the top. There are railings around it. When siege, a demon-subduing crossbow or a thunderbolt fire can be installed on it.

, it can also carry dozens of soldiers, depending on the height of the city, and this kind of siege car can also be high or low. After being pushed into the water, the water flows away from the hollow below, which can maximize the protection of siege car

The influence of water flow can stay in place.

Seeing all this, Wang Bin, the garrison commander of the Wang family army in the north, suddenly became anxious. If the Northern Army was allowed to do this, it would not take long before they would build a platform to cross the river on the water.

"Come here, use the thunderbolt cannon. There is a rock to smash it for me!" With a command, the thunderbolt cannon under the city, and the rolling stones fell like rain, smashing the siege cart in the water.

Seeing all this, Zhou Guangyi and Huo Zhenting laughed, "Smash it, smash it, come more violently!"

The stone bomb fell, and the siege car's platform was shattered at the first time, but when these stone bombs ate the platform and fell into the water, they were unable to destroy the other facilities of the siege car.

Falling into the water, it sank directly, instead, the wreckage of these siege cars settled in place more steadily, and more and more rolling stones fell down. In just a short time, there were more accumulations in Hanoi.

Some.

Seeing this result, Wang Bin was a little stunned. No attacks were left on the city. Amid the smuggling laughter of Huo Zhenting and Zhou Guangyi, one siege car after another was pushed into the moat, and the river was still there.

There is a river crossing bridge over hundreds of meters above the river surface.

Wang Bin took a deep breath. You always have to cross the river. Even if there is a bridge to cross the river, so what? This section of the road is still Shura’s way.

With the bridge deck crossing the river, I thought the Northern Army would launch an attack immediately, but beyond Wang Bin's expectations, the infantry of the Northern Army still did not move, but instead launched more siege cars.

These siege cars arrived at the edge of the moat and stopped immediately. The siege cars were not much the same as before. The middle was no longer empty, but were nailed to death by dense logs. Dozens of attacking vehicles

The city car stands there, connecting from beginning to end. Its height is not much different from Jiangling City, which is separated by a river.

"Attack, smash these siege cars to me!" Wang Bin issued an order again, but this time the attack on the city encountered a fierce counterattack. After these siege cars, the Northern Army gathered a large number of siege troops.

The thunderbolt cannons, these thunderbolt cannons with extremely fast firing speed quickly completely suppressed the thunderbolt cannons above the city. Wherever the thunderbolt cannons flew out of the city, would be retaliated like a storm, and then,

The thunderbolt cannons on the city were destroyed one after another, and Wang Bin's face became increasingly ugly. The city inside and outside the city was not of the same level as the long-range strike. If this continues, the thunderbolt cannons in the city will be quickly defeated by the opponent.

Completely destroyed, but he had to grit his teeth and continue shooting. The Northern Army wanted to use the height of these siege cars to suppress the city. Under the cover of these siege cars, the opponent's infantry would be as good as possible.

Reduce casualties.

Xing Shu hurried to Beicheng and stood beside Wang Bin. His brows frowned tightly, "It's not that simple, it's not that simple." He murmured.

"General Xing, what did you say?" Wang Bin did not hear clearly what Xing Shu was saying amid the loud roar of the thunder cannon.

"General Wang, if the opponent wants to use the height of these siege cars to suppress them, why did they not arrange the Demon-Subduing Crossbow on the siege cars? The Thunderbolt Fire cannot shoot it, but the Demon-Subduing Crossbow can be fully equipped and can be used against us

A blow was formed. At this time, they had a platform to cross the river. Why did their infantry not launch an attack?" Xing Shuwen said.

"They want to lure us to expose our thunderbolt cannons to destroy." Wang Bin's face looked very bad. If this is the case, then he would have been really fooled. At this time, the thunderbolt cannons on the city had been destroyed a lot, and he

However, there were not many results. A siege car was defeated. Wang Bin saw with his own eyes that the craftsmen of the Northern Expedition Army were just around the corner. He dragged the wreckage back and got together. There was a jingle and an attack.

The city car appeared in front of him again, and new siege cars were constantly being pushed out in the other party's camp.

"What is that?" Xing Shu suddenly pointed at the enemy's position in the distance, where the enemy pushed out another long and strange thing.

After looking closely for a while, Wang Bin shook his head and didn't know. He saw that more and more such things came out from the other party's camp. Soon, after the front of these long things reached the siege car, countless soldiers rushed.

Come out, I hold not a sword or a gun, but a shovel. The soldiers waved the shovel and shoveled up the mud, sand, soil and stones on the ground, throwing the belt on the long shelf, and being shocked by Xing Shu and Wang Bin.

In his eyes, the long belt began to move, and soon the soil was transported from a distance to the siege car and fell down.

Xing Shu's expression changed.

"What are they doing?" Wang Bin asked.

Xing Shu swallowed, "They are building a city!"

“What did you say”

"They are building a city!" Xing Shu suddenly roared.

Hearing Xing Shu's roar, Wang Bin was stunned and his hands were tightly clutching the city wall. Dozens of long belts in the distance were constantly running, and the soil was continuously transported to the siege city.

After the car, their soldiers were so far away that ordinary bows and arrows were hard to reach. There were not many thunderbolt cannons left, and the Demon-Subduing Crossbow had a hit rate of more than 10% above such a long distance.

"We must go out of the city to fight!" Wang Bin said tremblingly: "General Xing, we must go out of the city to fight. If they build the city wall based on siege cars, we will have no advantage."

"They are also waiting for us to go out of the city to fight!" Xing Shu's face twitched, and his muscles kept beating," Wang Bin, on both sides of the battlefield, the Mongolian cavalry must be on high alert. Once we leave the city, they will surround each other,

Cut into our flanks, and not many soldiers who leave the city can come back."

"What should I do? Watch them build the city walls"

"No, we must go out of the city to fight!" Xing Shu's face calmed down a little bit.

"Do you go out of the city and die?"

"Going out can delay their time. If we don't leave the city, we will lose faster!" Xing Shu's eyes began to become firm, "Prepare to go out of the city to fight!"

Wang Bin gritted his teeth and kept silent.

"General Wang, there is nothing to hesitate. We can only delay the time so that we can wait until the arrival of Tongzhou reinforcements and Tongzhou reinforcements arrive, so that we can have hope of perseverance." Xing Shu said sternly: "If you don't want to send a ministry, you will not be willing to send a ministry."

If you go to war, I will go in person.”

Wang Bin's face showed a painful look, "General Xing, I'll send someone!"

"For the sake of the Great Yue and for the sake of your Wang family to continue their glory for a hundred years, there is no regret!" Xing Shu looked at the city. As long as the soldiers who left the city could destroy their strange equipment and knock down their siege cars, it was a

It always takes time for them to rebuild these things."

Under the city, in the distance, Yun Zhao rode on the back of Pili. This time, Dark Clouds and Snow did not follow, and Yun Zhao's banner was not erected. On his side, one left and one right, Zhou Guangyi was riding on the horse.

With Huo Zhenting, Wu Fan stood beside Yun Zhao with his hand pressed his waist knife. It was far away from the battlefield and surrounded by soldiers of the North Army. Wu Fan didn't have to be so nervous.

"It's a death if you come out, and it's a death if you don't come out. Let's see how Xing Shu deals with it!" Yun Zhao said with a smile. "I think this feeling must be very bad."

Zhou Guangyi and Huo Zhenting both laughed.

"Prince, based on my understanding of Xing Shu, this person will definitely go to war. He will not sit still and wait for death."

"Then let's see how the Mongolian cavalry fights!" Yun Zhao smiled and said, "The Meng cavalry has its own set of rules to fight."

The three of them looked relaxed and talked and joked about the possible response methods that Xing Shu might have adopted. In their eyes, it was only a matter of time before this war was fought.

Even if he slowly grinds Xing Shu to death, he can grind Xing Shu to death. Although Xing Shu has tens of thousands of troops in Jiangling City, as long as he leaves the city, how can he be the opponent of the well-trained Conquest Army?

Speaking of which, in Jiangling, what really attracted Yun Zhao to pay attention to was the private soldiers of the Cao family and the Wang family. Yun Zhao had already seen other aristocratic armies in Luzhou.

The suspension bridge at the north gate of Jiangling fell with a loud bang, and the name of Wang was waving. The first choice was hundreds of cavalry to break out of the city. More infantrymen rushed out with the rush, and the Northern Army filled the moat hundreds of meters wide.
