Chapter 716

Fuyu City is a big city with a circumference of more than ten miles.

It is also a half-mountain city. He leans against the mountains of Fuyuchuan and faces the open Songliao Plain. It is precisely because of the characteristics of this mountain city that the city is large, but there are loopholes in defense.

This flaw is the West City Wall, which is the city wall facing the plain.

The terrain in front of Xicheng is flat and very open. Although it can lead rivers to become moats, in the northeast, in autumn, some rivers will be exhausted and waterless, and will freeze again in winter and spring, so the moats are not practical.

For this reason, Fuyu City did not introduce rivers as moats, but dug a very deep and wide trench. A sharp wooden stake was planted in the trench, and a wall of sheep and horses that was close to people was specially built on the trench on the shore of the city wall.

Only one bridge was left on the moat, and a bridgehead was built, and the bridge was built into a suspension bridge, which could be hung at any time.

Because the southern wall was on the plain and was not dangerous enough, the Goguryeo people only opened one door to the south, and a urn was built outside the city gate to protect the city gate.

An enemy tower arrow tower was built on the city wall.

In the past, this Fuyu City was on the Songnen Plain, and it was a towering city. The Khitans, Xiren, Shiwei, and Mohe and other tribes could only sigh at the city. It was too difficult for the light cavalry of the nomadic tribe to break through this city.

But at this time, for the soldiers of the Zhongwu Army such as Luo Shixin, Fuyu City was a dead city.

Under Luo Cheng's continuous arrangement, there were only 30,000 troops alone in Fuyu City, and half of them were scattered among more than forty other mountain fortresses of large and small. They are now divided and intercepted by the Sui army and dare not leave the city.

There were only more than 15,000 defenders in Fuyu City. Even if they were temporarily mobilized to defend the city, for the Zhongwu Army, which had powerful siege equipment, it was still a piece of meat placed on the chopping board.

"The general has made sufficient preparations for us and cleared all obstacles. Now, we have an absolute advantage, so everyone will win this city in one go and then return to the army to win. Don't waste time here. After taking the city, I will ask for me!"

Shi Xin rode a horse and stood only five miles below Fuyu City, and the generals took the order and left.

"Teacher, what is the chance of our army winning? How long does it take to take Fuyu City?" Shi Xin asked Li Jing next to him.

Li Jing smiled and said, "If nothing unexpected happens, you can win it in about three days."

"Can it be so fast?"

"I saw that the Goguryeo people were frightened and their morale was low, especially this city, which had neither the risk of the new city nor the number of soldiers in Liaodong. Such a city was OK to deal with the Hu people from northern Liao, but we were prepared this time."

When the Sui army attacked Liaodong City, it could not be captured for a long time. One of the key points was that they came from afar and had insufficient preparations for military equipment. Therefore, Luo Yi captured Wuluo Li City, and later the emperor captured Liaodong City, and Li Yuan captured Xincheng. They were all attacked by Duoyuliang Avenue.

Although Yuliang Avenue is also a method of siege, it is too backward after all. It is far less efficient than equipment like Lin Chong and Yun Ladder to attack the city.

Of course, what is more important is the morale of the military.

Now that Fuyu City has become an isolated city, the morale of the army is seriously depressed. In contrast, the Zhongwu Army is strong in soldiers and horses and equipment, so everyone is naturally full of morale.

Li Jing stood there, watching the troops spread out to the city.

Everything is done step by step, nothing to be exciting.

This battle was even a bit dull for Li Jing.

It is said that victory is a thousand miles away. In fact, an excellent general will do his homework before the battle and try to maximize his advantage. Only when he has enough advantages will he launch an attack, and generally, he will not fail again.

After all, there are very few who can defeat the more with few and weak with strong.

An excellent general, there is no need to take risks.

Unless the situation is very unfavorable and the situation is unfavorable, there is no need to do so.

Just like this battle, Luo Cheng was planning and preparing a few years ago.

Finally, Luo Cheng has enough advantages and then successfully deceived Yuan Taizuo strategically. Therefore, the Zhongwu Army can have such a great advantage under Fuyu City.

Originally, the Zhongwu Army and the Yuan clan were comparable in Liaodong. Luo Cheng's Zhongwu Army had stronger combat effectiveness, but the Yuan clan defended at home and had a large number of dangerous mountain cities.

But Yuan's loss is strategic.

He gave Luo Cheng a few years to prepare, which was the most deadly.

When Luo Cheng finally launched an attack a few years later, he was in a panic, but the original situation of the 55th Five-Year Plan has now become Luo Cheng's one-sided advantage.

"Ship Luo is a strategic expert and handsome!"

Li Jing sighed sincerely, this is the victory thousands of miles away.

Although Luo Cheng was not there, he was actually in charge of this battle.

On the battlefield.

The light cavalry of the tribe had already begun to rush. They were running unscrupulously under the city, showing their riding and shooting skills with some pride, running near the city, and then shooting arrows at the city.

After shooting the arrow, he roared and turned around.

The extremely high speed made the Goguryeo people in the city scream and fell down, but there was no way to deal with them.

Behind some, the infantry of the Zhongwu Army had already carried shields and bows and arrows slowly advanced. They lined up in neat arrays, whether they were spearmen or swordsmen, they were now easily carrying their bows in their hands.

It's really not too easy to face an enemy who can only be beaten but not fight back.

The trench filler followed closely behind.

There are hundreds of trench filling vehicles.

"Do you think Yuan Jiantu will go out of the city to fight?" Shi Xin asked.

"I guess it won't." Li Jing said. He judged it based on Yuan Jiantu's recent reactions. If he was Yuan Jiantu and found that the Sui army was going to attack, he would abandon some small mountain cities as soon as possible, and then concentrate his troops to guard several large mountain cities, and at the same time, he would strengthen the walls and clear the fields. But Yuan Jiantu did nothing, as if he was just sitting there waiting to die. How dare such a person go out of the city to fight?

The facts were as Li Jing expected.

The Sui army advanced slowly, but there was no response in the city.

The auxiliary soldiers of Zhongwu Army easily mounted the trench filling trucks. On the long trench, eight trench filling trucks formed a twelve-meter-wide passage.

Then, before rushing to the chariot, the ladder chariot passed easily.

Then, the catapult cart and the siege crossbow passed.

When the catapult cart and siege crossbow were in place, the first huge rock was roared and hit the wall of Fuyu, and the earth was shaken, and no one in the city came out of the city to fight.

One by one, huge rocks were constantly throwing towards Fuyu City, with crossbow guns as thick as eggs between them.

Then, the Sui infantry who arrived at the city suppressed the city with the rain of arrows.

Then the Lin Chong chariot and ladder chariot arrived at the city, and many leather curtain chariots and wooden pointed donkeys protected a large number of sword players to arrive at the city.

At this time, the Goguryeo people in the city began to fight back to death, but it was too late.

Under the cover of powerful catapults, siege crossbows, and infantry arrow formations, the Goguryeo people couldn't even protrude their heads. They put down the overpass and landed them directly on the top of the city.

Hundreds of ladder trucks have also begun to set up sub-stairs in the city.

The sword players of the Zhongwu Army all yelled like chicken blood and began to seize the city.

Before rushing to the car, each of the sword players held a shield in front of the left hand and a horizontal sword in his right hand. He roared and stepped across the overpass and rushed past. They jumped into the city one by one, like a magic weapon falling from the sky.

far away.

Li Jing bowed to Luo Shixin.

"Congratulations to General, Fuyu City has taken it down for only half a day!"

"Kill the chicken with a savage."
