Chapter 790: Chai Sang is in emergency and Lu Fans clever plan
The arrows on the city wall still fall every once in a while.
Quan Cong still held on to hope in his heart, thinking of using arrow rain to defeat the more than ten thousand Shanyue soldiers.
But the performance of the Shanyue soldiers next was far beyond Quan Cong's expectations.
Facing the rain of arrows unleashed by the Wu army, more than ten thousand Yue soldiers could not say that they were no longer afraid.
But at least now, they have no thoughts of retreating.
With the continuous sound of drums behind them and the loud shouts of more than a hundred warriors, the more than ten thousand soldiers on the mountain had only one thought in their minds at this moment:
"Admiral Tiance is watching them!"
Under the influence of this thought, Wan Yushan's Vietnamese soldiers hid behind Cuan Nian, pushing Jian Pi in front of them step by step towards Chaisang City.
Since Mi Yang obtained Ma Jun's service, Mi Yang gave Ma Jun an important task - to use his intelligence and wisdom to transform the various weapons of the Han army.
In his early years in Cao Wei, Ma Jun was famous for his ingenuity, but what the world didn't know was that Ma Jun didn't like studying agricultural equipment very much. What he was really obsessed with was military equipment!
Mi Yang's order can be said to be exactly what Ma Jun wants.
Ma Jun, who felt that he could express his ambition, spent a lot of effort since last year to transform various military weapons for Mi Yang.
As one of the most commonly used siege weapons in the world, it was naturally the focus of Ma Jun's transformation.
Under Ma Jun's transformation, the anemone used by the Han army underwent great changes.
The original cenri was like a large four-wheeled vehicle, which could accommodate several to ten people.
Under Ma Jun's modification, the internal space of the new anemone became larger, and in addition to transporting soldiers, it could also transport a large amount of soil.
Ma Jun transformed more than this.
The back eaves of the banquette were intentionally widened by Ma Jun, who also fixed rawhide on the back eaves.
The purpose of Ma Jun's modification was to allow the soldiers transporting the troops to hide under the rear eaves, greatly reducing the risk of the soldiers being killed by arrows.
When Ma Jun pulled the newly renovated cranium in front of Mi Yang, Mi Yang realized the excellence of the new cranium and ordered the military craftsmen to vigorously manufacture it.
Since it is a new type of anemone ordered by Mi Yang to be manufactured, then when this new type of anemone is manufactured, it will only be prioritized for deployment in the Tiance Army.
As of yesterday, no one in the world knew the power of this new type of anemone.
Until today.
Quan Cong watched as hundreds of large-scale sedans were pushed forward step by step. As many Shanyue soldiers hid behind the squadrons, the damage done to the Shanyue soldiers by their own arrow rain was rapidly decreasing visibly to the naked eye.
Quan Cong has also been in charge of soldiers for many years, and he could see the power of those hundreds of strange-styled cruising vehicles at a glance.
It turned out that Mi Yang had prepared a secret weapon a long time ago, and he did not simply want Wan Yushan's Vietnamese soldiers to come and die.
But what's the use of realizing this now?
Even if Quan Cong could discover something, how could the many Shanyue soldiers hiding behind Ren Ran not know about it?
When they discovered that Wu Jun's arrow rain could hardly cause serious damage to them, their fighting spirit to advance became even higher.
The weapon has always been in their hands.
But sharp weapons can only play their greatest role in the hands of warriors.
Otherwise, no matter how good the weapon is, it is just like a pile of scrap metal.
After hearing Dong Yun's report that hundreds of Corvettes were getting closer and closer to the moat outside Chaisang City, Mi Yang, who was playing drums, smiled for the first time today.
His painstaking efforts were not in vain.
Thinking of this, Mi Yang gradually increased the strength in her hands, and the drum sound coming from the tall building became louder and louder.
The quiet change in the situation made Mi Yang feel happy, but for Quan Cong, it was undoubtedly bad news.
It cannot be said that our own arrow rain offensive has no effect at all.
On the way forward of more than ten thousand Shanyue soldiers, many Shanyue soldiers were hit by stray arrows and fell to the ground.
But even so, the progress of hundreds of vehicles was not greatly affected.
Quan Cong could only watch helplessly as hundreds of trucks loaded with soil were pushed to the moat.
After hundreds of sedans stopped at the moat, the one at the front began to topple over at the next moment.
A lot of soil fell into the water, causing a lot of splashes.
Looking at the dense spray of water on the moat, Quan Cong felt short of breath.
The moat of Chaisang City is not too small.
But long before that, Mi Yang had ordered people to cut off the source of the moat outside the city.
This means that the moat has become stagnant water.
Even though the amount of soil dumped by the Han army this time was not a lot, if the Han army continued to dump soil when the moat turned into stagnant water, how long would it take for the moat to become a smooth road?
After the moat, there is the gate of Chaisang City!
Filling in the moat was a common siege move in the world, and it was within Quan Cong's expectation.
But what Quan Cong didn't expect was that under Mi Yang's series of arrangements, the threat of arrow rain attacks commonly used by city defenders was almost minimized.
Seeing that more than ten thousand Vietnamese soldiers were showing signs of retreating after dumping the first batch of soil.
Looking at the more than ten thousand Shanyue soldiers, a new round of formations began to appear. Quan Cong knew that he could no longer sit back and watch the Han army act unscrupulously.
Otherwise, within a few days, tens of thousands of Han troops would march to the city in a real sense.
After realizing the seriousness of this, Quan Cong ordered people to light beacon smoke on the city wall.
The dark smoke was blowing in the wind, and with the clear weather, it was enough for anyone within several miles to see it.
Quan Cong lit the smoke to report to Lu Fan and Lu Dai on the Yangtze River:
Chaisang is in danger, help quickly!
Wolf smoke slowly rose and was soon noticed by Lu Fan who was looking at Chaisang City from afar on the Yangtze River.
After seeing the bursts of smoke, Lu Fan showed a look of shock on his face.
He remembered that the Han army launched an attack on Chaisang City. Not even half a day had passed, but Chaisang City had become critical?
Because this bit of information was beyond common sense, Lu Fan did not act rashly for the time being.
Until the scouts sent by Lu Fan returned and told Lu Fan everything that was happening outside Chaisang City.
After hearing that Mi Yang had adopted a new type of siege weapon, which greatly accelerated the progress of the siege, Lu Fan began to believe Quan Cong's urgent request for help.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Then Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh:
"Mi Yang is really talented!"
Lu Fan knew very well that even if Mi Yang had a new type of anemone, if the more than ten thousand mountain soldiers did not cheer up, then the new type of anemone would not be able to play its role no matter how great it was.
However, the Shanyue soldiers who were originally disorganized suddenly became determined. This was a magical scene to outsiders, but it was not surprising to Lu Fan.
Because Lu Fan knew that a similar thing had happened in history.
When Emperor Guangwu conquered Hebei, he defeated hundreds of thousands of bronze horse troops. Emperor Guangwu wanted to recruit those hundreds of thousands of bronze horse troops, but the hundreds of thousands of bronze horse troops did not trust Emperor Guangwu at first.
Even under the instigation of thoughtful people, hundreds of thousands of bronze horse troops almost surrendered and rebelled again.
After Emperor Guangwu learned about this, in order to win the hearts of hundreds of thousands of Bronze Horse Army, he personally rode a horse with only a few followers to the Bronze Horse Army camp to comfort them one by one, regardless of his own danger.
Because of this heartfelt move, hundreds of thousands of bronze horse soldiers became completely devoted to Liu Xiu overnight.
After that incident, hundreds of thousands of bronze horse troops changed their bandit habits and became brave and capable officers and soldiers.
A scholar dies for a confidant.
Mi Yang's ambition and methods are comparable to that of Emperor Guangwu.
But Lu Fan quickly woke up from his emotions.
The most important thing right now is how to support Chai Sang.
Fortunately, Lu Fan had known that Mi Yang could do things that ordinary people could not do, so he had already prepared for the worst.
After Lu Fan asked the scouts to retreat, he summoned a group of generals.
After Lu Fan informed the generals of the critical situation facing Chai Sang, he said:
"I am determined to lead my troops ashore to rescue Chai Sang."
As soon as Lu Fan said this, many generals showed hesitation on their faces.
One of the generals held up his hands and dissuaded Lu Fan:
"According to reports from scouts, Mi Yang deployed heavy troops in Chaisang Port to prevent our troops from landing.
The Han army has taken precautions, and if our army forces a landing, we may not succeed."
This general spoke what other generals were thinking.
They knew that Chai Sang must be rescued, but they felt that they could not show off their courage for a moment.
After hearing the general's concerns, Lu Fan was not worried.
Lu Fan Fu Xu said:
"If Mi Yang does not deploy heavy troops in Chaisang Port, it will be difficult for our army to land ashore."
Lu Fan's words made many generals confused.
Facing the doubtful looks of the generals, Lu Fan said with a smile:
"Our army has large ships. It would be best if we could disembark from Chaisang Port.
However, our army still has many fast boats, and it is winter, so tidal flats have appeared in some places on the river.
If our army is reduced from a large one to a small one, and uses fast boats to quickly attack the lower reaches. If Mi Yang hears about our army's actions, won't he be frightened and dispatch heavy troops to stop our army?
Most of the Han army was attacking the city, and the only army Mi Yang mobilized was the strong force in Chaisang Port.
And after that powerful force is transferred away, if our army suddenly attacks Chaisang Port, the port will be captured by our army!
Don’t forget, in terms of strength and speed, our army is now superior to the Han army.”
After Lu Fan finished speaking, many generals showed joy on their faces.
Lu Fan is indeed one of the few big bosses left in Wu Shuoguo today, and this strategy sounds really refreshing.
Because they were confident in their own speed of movement on the water, the generals no longer had any objections to Lu Fan's orders.
After the generals left to prepare, Lu Fan did not forget to write a letter and told Lu Dai his plan intact.
We agreed to play duo together, and Lu Fan was not someone who abandoned his teammates.
...
Transported by Kuaizhou, Lu Dai soon received a letter from Lu Fan.
After reading the contents of the letter, Lu Dai snorted and copied a copy directly, and ordered someone to secretly send it outside Chaisang City.
It wasn't that he was ruthless, but it was Lu Fan who failed him first.
Under Lu Dai's secret report, Mi Yang learned of Lu Fan's overall plan before the Wu army launched the attack.
"This Lu Ziheng actually knows some of the essence of mobile warfare?"
But has Lu Fan forgotten that Mi Yang is best at mobile combat?
