Now that the most dangerous period has passed, even if the Brahgas cannot be defeated, at least many Kushan reinforcements can be killed. In any case, the next step is to make a lot of money. At most, it is just a matter of making more or less.
Naturally, Jia Xu doesn't pay much attention to the progress of Guishang. Li You said that his intelligence may be at the top level, but the scary thing about Li You is that in addition to his intelligence, he also uses his own character and consciousness to exert his intelligence.
They are all top choices. This kind of opponent is difficult to defeat.
"That's right, Yun Zhang reported urgently before that he killed five people in Guishang who had internal Qi separated from their bodies, three frontline generals, and Zilong even killed a world-breaking strongman." Liu Bei heard this and a smile appeared on his face.
, Liu Bei was upset when he received news that Guan Yu was under siege. Unfortunately, he was too anxious to send troops there, so he could only suppress his inner irritability and wait for the news.
"Now the middle and lower reaches of the Ganges have gained a firm footing. Zhong Yuanchang has started to restore people's livelihood after arriving. Unlike the Central Plains, it is possible to cultivate wasteland even in winter." Jia Xu nodded and said, now the Han Dynasty is in Guishang
Most of the main force has been gathered, but even so, it is not possible to say that Kuishang can be defeated in a short time.
"Can Brahasi City be taken?" Liu Bei suddenly asked a stupid question.
After hearing this, Jia Xu was silent for a while and then said, "Unfortunately, the people stationed in Brahshasi City are all good Kushan generals. The city itself is high and dangerous, and Peshawar has begun to mobilize troops after receiving the news.
General, it is unlikely to be taken down in a hurry."
In fact, judging from Jia Xu's experience, as long as they don't make mistakes on the Brahmas side, it will take a long time for the Han Dynasty to conquer it. But fortunately, it is just a city after all and cannot be conquered. You can also surround it and bring reinforcements to take advantage.
.
"It is indeed difficult." Liu Bei sighed and said. He also knew what Jia Xu's answer was. After all, Brahgasi City is not just a Nangui city, but also a garrison point for Beigui. It has a lot to do with Beigui.
His lifeline, and after suffering a loss last time, Niranjan will never be as careless as he was last time.
In fact, it is not only Chang'an who is thinking about this problem, but Guan Yu who is surrounded by Brahmas in Kushan is also having a headache.
Now Guan Yu has confirmed his status as Jialan God, and has also opened the trial of God in the eyes of the Kushan people, and won the primary stage victory. Therefore, Guan Yu will now be the challenger, plus the epic hero.
After Rahul surrounded Brahmas, more and more Nangui people came to seek refuge with Guan Yu.
However, from Li You's point of view, 70% of them are true believers of Guan Yu, and the remaining 30% are speculators.
Li You's attitude towards this is very interesting. I don't mind at all that you are opportunists. There is still a shortage of cannon fodder to attack the city. No matter what kind of guy comes, they will attack the city first. After surviving three days of siege,
Let’s talk about taking refuge.
This cruel method drove away many people who wanted to speculate. However, after all, Guan Yu's name had been tempered by the war and became more powerful, so that there was an endless stream of people coming to seek refuge. Li You was very happy about this.
satisfy.
After all, if he really uses his elite troops to attack the city, Li You won't be able to withstand it. Although Li You is a devil and can withstand losses very high, Li You has a bottom line, which is meaningless losses.
, Li You will not do it.
Like the current ant-invading human sea tactic, there is no point in consuming the elite soldiers. Instead, they have to pay pensions. It is better for the believers and speculators who come to seek refuge. After they die, they will return to Brahma. It can be said that everyone is happy.
"Five arrow towers in Brahmasi were demolished today." Wang Liang came to report to Li Youhui.
"Where's the pile of dirt?" Li You said a little tiredly. Li You was also a little tired from the recent sieges day and night. Of course, the most important thing is that many commonly used siege tactics are useless.
Poisonous smoke, kerosene bombs, bribery, tunnels, water diversion to soak the city wall foundation, all of them are useless. Up to now, Brahshasi City has blocked the city gate with huge rocks. It is obvious that the opponent is not ready to come out at all. This is
It’s very uncomfortable.
Niranjan itself has accumulated a huge amount of food and grass in Brahshas. As for the water source being cut off, I can’t say that water can come out of this place just by digging, but there is almost too much, so we have to rely on dragging.
It seems difficult to drag the opponent to death.
Technical tactics were completely blocked. Even if there were professional diggers who were sure to dig a road into the city, before they even entered the city, the opponent used a special ground listening method to find out the direction, and then used
The trebuchets destroyed the tunnel.
Pity the group of elite diggers who were digging underground. Except for a few who were lucky and highly skilled, they were all on their way.
So far, only frontal force methods are left, and conventional ladders and siege machines are only as effective. It takes a lot of time to win, so that Li You was forced to choose to bulldoze into mountains.
Relying on siege machinery is too slow. Not to mention how efficient this method is, at least it is more stable.
"The mountain of earth was half piled, but a large piece was blown away by the enemy's legion attack." Wang Liang sighed and said, after all, the mountain of earth had not been warmed and could not withstand the bombardment of the legion's attack.
"Continue to pile up. Use it if you want to use it for legion attacks. Let the civilians also pile up the earth mountain. It will take as long as it takes. Now we don't care about this little time." Li You heard that there was nothing special about the earth mountain being bombed.
Li You is not in a hurry at all, it just feels like something is rising up little by little, and there is nothing Kuishang can do to stop it.
This operation itself does not have any difficulty. The significance of using it is that the longer it takes, the larger the scale of the mountain will be, and the greater the psychological pressure will be on the Kushan soldiers who watch the mountain being built little by little, especially General Niranjan.
When the city gates were locked and the Kushan soldiers could not even escape, the pressure was even greater.
Of course, Li You thought that Nilanjan did this so that if an unexpected situation occurred and the Han Dynasty suddenly entered the city, Nilanjan could use this method to force the Kushan soldiers to fight to the death.
This idea is good and makes sense, but this method deals with sudden fear. But if you see the danger approaching and cannot run away, you may have the consciousness of fighting to the death at first, but as time goes by,
If the pressure increases, it will really break down.
After sending Wang Liang away, Li You went to find Wang Tao. He needed to talk to Wang Tao.
"How is the situation?" Li You looked at Wang Tao who was playing with the equipment in the back camp and asked indifferently. However, at this moment, Li You's eyes were different from the indifference he had when he looked at Wang Liang before. Instead, he looked at him with a sinister glare.
, Under this harsh light, Wang Tao couldn't help but shudder.
"Now I have completed the conversion of the essence of heaven and earth into electricity, and I have created this thing, which can store a large amount of electricity. I call it a battery." Seeing that Li You did not dare to be perfunctory, Wang Tao quickly began to explain.
.
"Battery?" Li You looked at a large ball of semi-solidified gel and raised his eyebrows, "What's the use of this thing?"
"This thing allows me to access electricity at any time, and it can also store excess electricity. With this thing, my research has taken a big step forward." Wang Tao talked about his professional issues and seemed very excited. Kuaiji
More than a hundred years of research by the Wang family has finally yielded some results.
"Now with this two-kilometer enameled wire and this electromagnet, the information released by me can be received instantly from two kilometers away. If this line can reach 20 kilometers, the message can also be received instantly.
This is my latest invention." Wang Tao began to explain the principle eloquently, and looked at Li You very excitedly and said.
Wang Tao's understanding of electric speed made it clear that any secret method of sound transmission, some eight-hundred-mile express, or any flying pigeon delivering messages would be reduced to rubbish in seconds. As long as the line is long enough, you can do it.
Even in Chang'an, I can instantly receive the news about them in Guishang. Don't worry, our Wang family's research in Kuaiji will not be affected!
As for the technical difficulty, Wang Tao knows it very well. It is very simple. The biggest problem is actually the problem of copper wire. However, the people of the Central Plains seem to have figured out this weird technology of drawing metal before the Spring and Autumn Period. It is not difficult at all, but the length is a bit frustrating.
"What's the use of this?" Li You looked at Wang Tao kindly and asked, what's the use of a distance of two kilometers? Zhang Fei roared, maybe everyone could hear it.
"No, no, no, this is not just a matter of twenty kilometers, it is the same for two hundred kilometers, two thousand kilometers, and twenty thousand kilometers. It will come in an instant." Wang Tao said very excitedly, which stunned Li You. Although
He asked Wang Tao to study how to draw thunder, but Wang Tao didn't finish it. But after Wang Tao figured out this, he couldn't hang Wang Tao on a tree and take care of it.
Just like the Soviet Research Institute, the KGB can use guns to force engineers to design the tanks that Comrade Steel needs. If the tank cannot be completed, it will be a direct thrust. However, the KGB caught Landau who was not working hard and was racing. He did not dare to remove Landau.
, this is a question of value.
Li You is obviously this kind of character. Especially when he found out that Wang Tao had misappropriated the research funds he gave him to do other things and did not care about the thunder thing he wanted, Li You was ready to catch Wang Tao and hang him.
After all, the Wang family in Kuaiji had agreed that as long as Wang Tao didn't work well, Wang Taolei would be punished and compensate Li You.
That's right, the Wang family in Kuaiji sold Wang Tao!
However, even if Li You didn't understand electromagnetism, after confirming that Wang Tao was not joking, he felt that this was a good technology. Even if it could only transmit electrical codes, it was still a very remarkable research.
Especially after Wang Tao showed that he had no idea that the funds were used to study how to induce thunder, the kind old man with a white beard very kindly forgave Wang Tao's misappropriation of funds and warned Wang Tao to study how to induce thunder as soon as possible.
