"My lord has an order. The Seventh Army of the Pioneer Army is acting on their own initiative. They must board the Sishuiguan Tower today!" the soldier who sent the order loudly said.
"I know, you go down." Tang Yi said.
"Here!"
Without changing his posture, Tang Yi remained as he had just stood up, and slowly closed his eyes, wondering what he was thinking.
After a long time, when she opened her eyes again, some of the doubts in her eyes had disappeared, and only peace remained.
She didn't know Sun Jian's plan, nor what happened at the Central Military Command Station and the Pioneer Army camp last night, but she generally understood what Sun Jian wanted to do.
She didn't think that the fueling tactics so far were Sun Jian's inevitable choice. She just didn't bother to care or ask.
If she knew about the conversation between Sun Jian and Sun Ce last night, then she would probably have a deeper understanding of Sun Jian's thoughts.
But even if she understood, she probably wouldn't care that much.
Some things are obvious even if you don't think about them intentionally.
For example, although Sun Ce was more attentive to him, Sun Jian, a wily and powerful man, had obviously never believed in him.
The four veteran generals of Han Dang Zu Mao, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, and Sun Jian were in the center. Sun Ce and she were on both sides of the army.
The military formation of Tang Yi's group is close to the Yellow River and even closer to Bingzhou Zhao Yun's group. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that Sun Jian must have discovered something. Since the two sides are now considered implicit allies, this move can be regarded as both an adult's beauty and beware.
And by keeping his son so far away from himself, he not only wanted to prevent the "unknown origin" of the left general Liu Bei from secretly instigating Liu Xun to make small moves, but he also wanted to keep Sun Ce away from him.
If you can’t control it, then break it up?
There was one thing that disappointed Qi Zhen, but she didn't feel any guilt in her heart.
She knew that Qi Zhen wanted to make herself like Liang Sicheng, who was submissive and submissive under Sun Jian. It would be best if she could completely gain Sun Jian's trust and even influence Sun Jian's decision-making, paving the way for Qi Zhen to unify the Three Kingdoms.
However, she doesn't have that kind of temperament, or in other words, her way of doing things is to have her own way, but this makes Sun Ce, a half-year-old boy, have such thoughts, which is really unexpected for her.
"Somebody come!"
Tang Yi shouted outside.
"exist!"
"Everywhere in the military camp is ordered to start attacking according to the command of the Chinese army. Today's attack on the city has changed from two to four. They must scale the city wall within half a day. Anyone who disobeys the order will be executed." Tang Yi issued the order softly.
"General..."
"No need to say more, I have made up my mind. If you don't know how to fight, just replace him." Tang Yi seemed to know what the other party wanted to say, but said in a deep voice before the other party could speak.
"...Here!"
This is a very interesting command.
The military order issued by Sun Jian to Yuan Shao was limited to two days. After returning to the camp, what he and Sun Ce said was that the siege armies maintained the same attack posture as last night and acted expeditiously.
The order that was sent to all armies early in the morning, in addition to the four words "acting cheaply", also added that they must climb the tower within one day.
But when we got to Tangyi, one day turned into half a day.
This is the case with everything. When superiors issue orders to subordinates, they leave behind deadlines. But deadlines often mean there is no way out. When subordinates issue orders to subordinates, they have to give themselves
Leave room for change.
Up to the specific execution level, under the current scene, it is those ordinary siege soldiers and grassroots generals. They must try every means to launch the most violent attack on Sishui Pass without risking their lives. Only then can it be possible Complete the siege mission within the time limit.
This is the inevitable reason for the so-called layer-by-layer coding.
At Mao hour, outside Sishui Pass, the thunderous war drums and shouts of death rang out again.
Although it had been expected, the deputy general who defended the city still did not expect that the offensive of the opponent's vanguard army suddenly became so fierce.
Seven siege armies, more than twenty siege ladders, within an arrow on this road paved with blood and corpses, took less than half the time of yesterday to attack the city of Sishui Pass!
This speed is indeed too terrifying. The main reason is that the soldiers guarding the gate can't imagine why they can still maintain such a high attack posture today even though they have repelled so many attempts by the opponent to climb the city yesterday night. Is it possible that these Don't people feel tired?
Among the seven siege armies, the only thing that had changed compared to yesterday was that the army in the middle route unexpectedly took out their giant siege hammers. What made the defenders feel even more awe-inspiring was the northernmost route.
Oh my God! Are those people crazy?
The northernmost side of Bishui Pass, an important pass, is built against the mountain. The angle between the city wall and the mountain is almost 90 degrees. Logically speaking, it is already the limit to allow two approaches to attack the city. Just two of the ladders were already the limit. It was destined that it would be impossible to allow the attacking generals to spread out their formation and "calmly" climb the city.
However, what is unexpected is that the commander of the roadside army did not know what he was thinking. In addition to the two groups of siege soldiers, he actually added two more groups!
But even if these two soldiers rush to Sishui Pass, what can they do? Hasn't he become a target for the officers and soldiers defending the city?
What these two siege armies did was once again shocking. They actually started... climbing the mountain!
On the north side of the city wall is the mountain. In addition to facing the almost vertical rock climbing test when climbing up the mountain, the process of climbing is unobstructed, like slow-moving arrows hanging on the mountain wall. target!
Isn't this just sending death?
The mountain wall is very steep. Many soldiers came here and looked at the mountain wall with despair in their hearts.
Then they started climbing with this despair.
People kept falling from the mountain wall.
It can range from breaking a leg to falling to death on the spot.
This is using human life to find the best upward route.
Finally, after paying the price of countless soldier deaths and injuries, the two soldiers who used to climb the mountain finally found two decent climbing roads.
The test that everyone needs to face is the mountain wind and arrows that don't know where they come from.
If you don't control your center of gravity well, or your mind is affected by the arrow, you will often fall if your hand shakes.
In less than an hour, the number of soldiers in the roadside army led by Tang Yi had reached a terrifying two thousand!
There are still two hours left before the deadline for Yu Yi to issue the order.
When Sun Jian received the battle reports from other Sixth Route Army formations, his hands trembled imperceptibly.
The siege armies led by other generals attacked the city according to the planned plan. Nothing special happened. Only Tang Yi was really terrible.
The enemy's battle losses, our battle losses, tactical objectives
mark.
This item of our battle losses made his rock-solid heart tremble slightly.
In one hour, there were more than two thousand people. You must know that due to the influence of the terrain, the number of officers and soldiers sent to attack the city was limited, and so many people could be injured or killed. How did she do it?
"Here comes someone!" Sun Jian shouted loudly.
"exist!"
"Go to General Tang's side and see clearly the fighting situation there, and then come back and report to me." Sun Jian said slowly.
"Here!"
"Report!" Another soldier came to report.
"Come in."
"Report to General Sun that the 50,000-strong army supported by various princes has been assembled outside our military camp!"
Sun Jian pondered for a moment and then ordered: "Assign Yuan Shao's 10,000 soldiers to General Tang, and the rest will support the other six groups in equal amounts. The generals of each group will make their own arrangements without having to report back."
"Here!"
…
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
This is not the sound of a war drum, but whenever this sound sounds, it is more shocking than any other sound.
This is true both for the defending army and the siege army.
This sound sounded extremely regularly.
The siege soldiers must pull the heavy pendulum to a sufficient distance. The pencil-head-like protrusion at the front of the pendulum can have the greatest impact on the city gate.
Yes, this is the sound of a battering ram.
After a great sacrifice, the battering ram was finally transported to the place where it should be used.
The soldiers on the tower obviously needed to pay extra attention to this big guy who might be able to change the direction of the battle, so the corpses under the tower were piled up like a mountain. Most of the boulders and scalding hot oil were transported here, and they swarmed below. The crowd was attacking indiscriminately.
However, once the battering ram enters the city gate, the only way, apart from the thickness and durability of the gate, is to rely on the soldiers defending the city to withstand it from inside the gate.
The seven troops who climbed the city were just a way for Sun Jian to consume his troops.
There don't seem to be many soldiers here. If we really expect the siege ram to knock on the gate of Sishui Pass, it will take an extremely long time.
Therefore, the deputy general who defended the city never paid much attention.
It is precisely here that Sun Jian cares most about, and it is here that he wants to win.
If it doesn't break open after a hundred hits, hit it two hundred times. If it doesn't break open after two hundred hits, hit it a thousand times. Compared with the soldiers who climbed the city and died in vain, the results here are not quick, but once you succeed, there will be a smooth road ahead!
What a man, Sun Wentai, for the sake of less than a thousand soldiers and a siege ram, he actually let an army of more than 100,000 people conduct a feint attack!
Another hour passed.
There are four hours left before the end of today's siege, and only one hour left before Tang Yi's order to ascend the tower.
"Report!" The reporting soldier came to Sun Jian's camp with unconcealable excitement in his voice.
"What's the matter?" Sun Jian raised his head and asked.
"My lord, General Tang has attacked the city all the way and is now fighting the enemy on the city!"
"What! Seriously?!" Sun Jian stood up in shock, the shock on his face actually overshadowed the joy.
"General Tang reported back, please ask the other armies to increase their siege efforts to relieve the pressure on General Tang's troops!"
Sun Jian fell into deep thought at this time.
