While Lu Meng and others stood on the top of the city and pointed at the Huai Army camp, Wang Jing also led a group of civil and military personnel out of the camp and came to a hill close to Changshu City to observe the situation.
The city of Changshu is strong, and although it has little reputation in history, in terms of area and strength, it is comparable to Shouchun, which was previously attacked by the Huai army.
The reason why Shouchun City was breached was because there were no top experts in the city.
A mere Zhuge Dan showed up with a ninth-level warrior, and he couldn't even be defeated without a ninth-level warrior.
But a city with a ninth-level commander and a city without a ninth-level commander are definitely not the same thing.
Wang Jing's insight talent was upgraded to spiritual eyes.
Observation and insight skills are improved to a higher level.
At this time, in his eyes, above the distant Changshu City, there was a faint barrier that could not be seen by ordinary people. The entire city gave people a sense of immovable solidity.
"The Sun family in Jiangdong is said to have the art of war passed down by Sun Wu in their family. The city of Changshu is shrouded in military formations. It seems that the rumors are indeed true!"
Wang Jing admired slightly.
Sun Wu's Art of War has the four forces of wind, forest and volcano. It talks about the essence of an army that is as fast as the wind, as slow as a forest, as aggressive as fire, and as motionless as a mountain. The four-character mantra of wind, forest and volcano is also regarded by many generals and celebrities in the world. Reasonable.
In the world of China, the art of war passed down by the Sun family in Jiangdong has evolved into the four formations of Fenglinhuoshan.
Among them, what Sun Jian is best at using is the fire formation! He trained his elite troops in fire formations. When fighting the enemy head-on, the invasion was like fire and unstoppable. He can fight hard by hitting hard and charging hard.
But the strength of flame lies in bursting, not in lasting.
What he is not good at is encountering sudden attacks, making it impossible for the army to deploy, and he is not good at protracted battles. This is Sun Jian's weakness.
What Sun Ce is good at is wind formation. It is as fast as wind and as powerful as thunder. The method of leading troops is similar to Xiang Yu's, but compared to Xiang Yu's unrivaled domineering and bravery, he is still two levels below.
Sun Quan was not as talented as his father and brother, and he only used the four military formations passed down from his family to train special troops to relieve the troops. And in some important cities, the city was built using the method of military formation to consolidate the defense.
"Yes, this Changshu City is said to be blessed with the Sun family's secret immovable thick earth formation. However, any general above the seventh level who understands the power of heaven and earth will be greatly weakened when attacking the city..."
Gao Xi said slowly from the side.
This is top-secret news from Soochow. In order to find out this news, the secret agents of the Military Intelligence Department sacrificed a lot.
"There is only one Lu Meng in the city. How can a mere military formation be capable? Your Majesty, the last general has received the order to attack this city first. Changshu, Suzhou is a woman with her clothes open. Why don't you just let us ravage you?" ?”
Shi Wansui took the initiative to ask for help.
"General Shi, why should we be anxious? If we attack by force, our army will suffer heavy losses... How to deal with it depends on the king's decision!"
Xie Hui said softly.
Shi Wansui opened his eyes slightly and wanted to refute, but when he heard the last words of the other party, he immediately closed his mouth and just snorted coldly.
Among the Huai army, except for a few people such as King Huai and Fu Youde, Shi Wansui has never been afraid of anyone. Xie Hui is just a civil servant, so what if he holds a high position in the central government?
For someone like Xie Hui, who had a dark history of being a minister of Liu Yu's Tuogu family but eventually killing the monarch's son and dethroning the emperor, he was destined to be unable to hold a position in the Huai Army.
This is not a matter of Wang Jing's trust or distrust, but that all ministers who have the three cardinal principles and five permanent principles will be subconsciously wary of him.
Long live his life, as long as he continues to make meritorious deeds, he will become a general in the army in the future, and even be able to lead an army alone to fight in all directions...
Wang Jing's eyes swept over everyone and said: "I lead hundreds of thousands of troops to Changshu, how can I just sit back and watch the soldiers of Soochow defend the city? Long live Shi, since you took the initiative to ask for help, I will give you this opportunity!"
"I will give you one hundred thousand soldiers and horses. Once the siege equipment such as trebuchets, columbians, ramming ladders and arrow towers are completed, we will begin the siege as soon as possible!"
"Another order to transfer Wen Qin, Wen Yang, Zhou Panlong, and Zhou Fengshu to be at Shi Wansui's disposal for the time being!"
Shi Wansui quickly stood up and prostrated on the ground, "Your Majesty, don't worry, if you can't defeat Changshu, please behead someone!"
Wang Jing laughed, waved his hand and said: "It doesn't have to be like this. Gu's requirements are not high. It would be best if we can capture Changshu. If we can't break the city in a short time, we must keep the enemy troops inside the city and not dare to go out."
"This is the bottom line for being lonely!"
Even if Shi Wansui is a ninth-level warrior, coupled with Wen Qin, Wen Yang, and Zhou Panlong and his son, it will be difficult to break through the city in a short period of time. Wen Qin, his son, and Zhou Panlong's father and son have not yet broken through to the ninth level.
In Changshu City, Lu Meng also had several eighth-level generals under his command.
The two sides can only say that they are evenly matched.
But Lü Meng had a strong city in hand, so he naturally had an advantage.
As Xie Hui said, if the Huai army attacks the city at this time, the losses will not be small. If they attack the city with 100,000 soldiers and horses. The chance of breaking the city is less than 30%.
"The king has told the soldiers and horses of Soochow not to leave the city...could it be that he wants to encircle the area for reinforcements?"
Gao Xi frowned slightly and asked.
Wang Jing said: "No, what Gu means is that we continue to divide our troops and take the initiative to attack other cities in Soochow!"
Gao Xi and Xie Hui looked at each other.
Both of them were top smart people, but when they heard Wang Jing's words, they were so shocked that they didn't react.
There is a difference between encircling a point for reinforcements and dividing the troops to attack.
On the other hand, Chen Qingzhi, who had been silent for a long time, looked slightly moved, as if he understood what Wang Jing meant.
"Do you know where the foundation of Soochow lies?"
Wang Jing showed a smile on his face.
Gao Xi said: "Back to the king, the foundation of Soochow is naturally the Sun family and various wealthy families..."
Having said this, Gao Xi suddenly understood Wang Jing's true intention.
"Yes, there are two foundations of Soochow, namely the Sun family and the powerful families. Now most of the Sun family's Sun Jian's troops and navy have been annihilated. Sun Ce's troops are restrained and unable to go north. The remaining part of the force is in Changshu City. …”
"However, most of the Sun family's strength has been lost. Although the strength of the powerful families in Soochow has been lost, it has not been damaged. If they send out their own troops, together they can be equivalent to an army of 300,000 people!"
"Our army cannot give them a chance to unite. Taking advantage of the turmoil in Soochow, we will use part of our troops to guard Changshu, and divide our troops to attack the powerful families entrenched in various places. Take advantage of their unpreparedness and quickly destroy them!"
"Without the family soldiers of the wealthy family, Soochow has collapsed and is no longer a match for Gu..."
Wang Jing said his plan.
Xie Hui hesitated to speak. He wanted to say that not all the wealthy families under the command of Soochow were enemies of the Huai Army. Most of them even secretly had the intention of defecting to the Huai Army.
If we divide our troops to attack the Wubao city of those wealthy families, wouldn't we be able to shut out those wealthy families who want to defect?
The power of aristocratic families is not small.
It is obvious that the power that can be used for one's own use, but forcefully treated as an enemy, is something that a wise man will not take!
certainly.
Xie Hui thinks so because he himself is a member of a wealthy family. The outlook on life and values cultivated since childhood are destined to be different from ordinary people.
Gao Xi and Chen Qingzhi knew that Wang Jing's move was to regard the powerful families under Soochow as enemies... The Huai army was different from the Sun family of Soochow.
The Sun family can rule the world together with aristocratic families, but in the Huai Army, there is no place for a so-called aristocratic family.
