120,000 Jin troops gathered here and surrounded the 30,000 soldiers and horses in the city.
Nanyang has 50,000 soldiers and horses. Nanxiang, Zhixian and Ye County are more important. Each has a few thousand soldiers and horses. The remaining counties have only a few hundred or a few hundred soldiers. Therefore, at this moment, Wancheng only has over 30,000 soldiers left.
There are people and horses.
The news from Zhu Yuanzhang and Liu Xiu is indeed good. The Jin army has indeed increased its troops again based on the previous 150,000 infantry and cavalry.
Yongzhou had 100,000 troops, Bai Qi personally led 50,000 troops to guard Guanzhong, and Feng Yi led the remaining 50,000 troops along Wuguan into Nanyang. Afterwards, Feng Yi led 10,000 troops to Nanxiang to guard against Bashu, and the remaining 40,000 troops
The soldiers and horses joined up with Yue Fei.
In other words, the Jin army this time mobilized 50,000 troops from Yongzhou, 50,000 troops from Lantian Camp, 50,000 troops from Guangcheng Camp, and 50,000 Qiang troops, for a total of 200,000 troops.
In fact, 50,000 soldiers and horses from Mengtian in Hezhou have begun to move to Yongzhou. As long as the battle in Jingbei is still needed, they can be deployed on the battlefield as soon as possible.
At this time, Chang Yuchun had already cleaned up the counties in the west of Nanyang, and Wu Qi had completed more than half of the tasks in the counties in the east of Nanyang.
In fact, this is not a troublesome job. Only a small number of people dare to resist to the end. Most county magistrates choose to open the door and ask for surrender, putting their own lives first.
These people are just small county magistrates, with limited status among Liu Xiu's influence, and accordingly, their loyalty is also quite limited.
"Deng Yu, Nanyang has been completely surrounded by our generals, and its fall is a foregone conclusion. If you surrender, you can still find a way out for the soldiers in the city. If you resist to the end, you will die without a place to die! Deng Yu
, it is related to the lives of soldiers and civilians in this city, I would advise you to think carefully!" Yue Fei shouted sharply at the foot of Nanyang City.
The artillery doctrine of the Jin army has become popular. In the past few days, thousands of catapults have been bombarding day and night, almost destroying the city of Nanyang. According to this look, Nanyang is indeed insisting on
It won't be long.
No matter how strong the city wall is, it cannot withstand the bombardment of thousands of catapults for several days.
After many days of feint attacks, today Yue Fei was about to make a serious attack.
"Yue Pengju, don't mention it. If you have the ability, just break the city!" Deng Yu, who was wearing general armor, said without hesitation.
Deng Yu, who was one of Liu Xiuche's die-hard loyalists, how could he be shaken by Yue Fei's words in just a few words? Yue Fei, his eloquence has not reached that level yet.
"Brothers, now that the enemy is approaching the city with fierce force, we should all fight to the death to repay the Lord's kindness and the people's support. Anyone who shrinks from the battle will be killed without mercy." Deng Yu drew his sword and raised it high, turning to face him.
The generals and soldiers said impassionedly.
"Ding, Deng Yu's horned wooden dragon skill is activated.
Effect 2: When located in the Kanto region, the commander's intelligence will be extra +1.
Effect three: when located in the Kansai region, effect one becomes invalid and the commander-in-chief is -1.
Effect 4: When you are on the same battlefield as someone with the Azure Dragon skill, your entire four-dimensional body will be temporarily +1."
Well, with this skill, no wonder he achieved brilliant achievements in the early stage and almost reached the peak of his life. But when he arrived in Guanzhong, he started to stretch his hips, and arranged a fierce fight between the two housekeepers, and lost his reputation as a person of knowledge. And the northwest region.
The warlords faced off against each other and were beaten to the point where they were unable to resist.
"Ding, the current Deng Yujiao Wood Jiao skill effect one and two are activated, commander +2, intelligence +3, basic commander 96, basic intelligence 96, commander increased to 98, intelligence increased to 99."
"Kill the enemy bravely and defend the city to the death."
"Kill the enemy bravely and defend the city to the death."
"Kill the enemy bravely and defend the city to the death."
A group of generals headed by Wenzhong responded quickly, and everyone has a herd mentality. If one takes the lead, the atmosphere of everyone else will be mobilized.
"Hahaha, that's well said. As long as everyone works together and fights bravely, there is no need to worry about being defeated by the enemy!" Deng Yu roared with high spirits.
Yue Fei looked at the city tower and sighed helplessly. Most famous generals dislike fighting siege battles the most. On the one hand, the scope of operations is much smaller. On the other hand, as the siege party,
It is bound to cost a lot of casualties.
But Yue Fei returned to his original firm and serious expression in an instant, drew out his sword and said, "Attack the city."
Yue Fei's time is also very tight. Zhu Yuanzhang's 100,000 troops have already sent troops to Jiangxia. At the same time, Liu Che's movement has also been reported to the Floating House. Although Liu Che's march is not as convenient as Zhu Yuanzhang's, it won't take long, I'm afraid.
We can also reach Nanjun!
Now, Yue Fei used Fancheng to the south to fight against Xiangyang, and borrowed 50,000 Qiang cavalry to hold off Liu Xiu. He wanted to seize the time to pull out the nail in Wancheng with all his strength, and then mobilize his troops to fight with Liu Xiu, Zhu Yuanzhang, and Liu Che.
The coalition forces of the three princes fought against each other.
Moreover, the vast majority of Nanyang's soldiers were the only remaining veterans of hundreds of battles in Jingbei. After finishing this group of people, most of Liu Xiu's remaining troops were definitely worse in terms of combat effectiveness than these people.
The upper half is even a grade.
The trebuchet team lined up in front of the formation. The soldiers quickly lifted the stones onto the launcher, and then moved them hard. The stones fell from the sky like meteorites and hit the city tower and the city one after another. I saw crackling sounds coming from the houses above and below.
, holes were smashed out one after another.
"Huang Feihu, take your troops and advance slowly, prepare to lead the army to attack the city!" Yue Fei waved to Huang Feihu.
Although the catapult is now being launched, it is almost impossible for Huang Feihu's men to be accidentally injured by their own catapult before they advance to a certain distance.
With Huang Feihu slowly advancing forward, the Chu army on Wancheng had to guard the city wall and be ready at any time. In this way, Yue Fei's catapult could kill the opponent with maximum efficiency.
Deng Yu rubbed the corners of his bluish mouth, managed to calm down and ordered the soldiers below, "Fight back, fight back quickly!"
It was very unfortunate just now that a huge boulder hit not far from Deng Yu, and a small stone was thrown up and hit the corner of Deng Yu's mouth, causing Deng Yu to grin with pain.
"Disperse, disperse quickly!" Seeing that the enemy's catapults had also opened fire, Huang Feihu immediately ordered to the soldiers around him.
The Chu Army's catapults should now be called Thunderbolt Chariots. After some modifications by Liu Ye, they have surpassed the Jin Army's catapults in both range and power. Fortunately, the quality is not enough.
Even in numbers, the Jin army still had an absolute advantage in firepower.
By the way, not even Huang Feihu dared to catch the stones of this catapult. Even if he caught the stones once or twice, it would be enough, but if it happened too many times, this thing would not be able to hurt it. If it was hit once, it would be seriously injured even if it was not dead.
