Chapter 538 Intimidation(1/2)
"Have you taken the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to Ruyin?" Gao Shun looked at the map in his hand and asked Gao Shun next to him.
"Yes!" Gao Shun nodded and said yes.
"The lord wants to take Ruyin from a long distance raid?"
"kindness!"
"You are too slow to get trapped in the camp, so the lord asked you to stay and wait for the large army in the rear?"
"kindness"
"Have you investigated this Yingshang City? How many soldiers are there?" Gao Shun asked again.
"Look!" Gao Shun took out a piece of paper. The notes made by Gao Shun were written on them, which contained some details of Yingshang. The height of the city and the width of the moat had been included.
"Say more words and you will die!" Zhang Hu couldn't stand it anymore. He hugged Zhang Liao and said that he was uncomfortable and took his leave first.
"Old Gao, Lao Gao?" Zhang Liao shook his head with a wry smile. Fortunately, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun have been working for so many years and can still adapt.
"Catch Yingshang City, the large army is stationed!" Gao Shun finally said more than two words.
Zhang Liao also had this idea when he took Yingshang, but he only had to fight. Most of his hands were heavily armored cavalry and it was difficult to directly attack the city. The trapped camp was also a heavy armored infantry battle, and the siege battle was also insufficient.
"Take Yingshang to attack the heart!" Gao Shun said to Zhang Liao.
"Attack the heart?" Zhang Liao could hear Gao Shun's words and felt aroused in his heart, "How can he attack the heart?"
"Think about it yourself!"
"Puff!" Ge Jun couldn't stand it anymore, and he also said discomfort to Zhang Liao and left.
Gao Shun is indeed not suitable for commanding the army. He is only suitable for being a general and training troops. You just need to tell Gao Shun how to fight. You should do other strategies and other things by yourself.
"Report! Report to Deputy Commander. There is a general outside the camp who asks for his visit!"
...
Early the next morning, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's army left the camp and headed towards Yingshang.
There are many flags in Yingshang, and Yingshang City is now no longer as before. Because Yingshang City has been ravaged by Liu Mang's army, the original defending general was Mi Zhu's younger brother Mi Fang. Mi Fang would rather die than surrender at the beginning. Liu Mang forced Yingshang to take over by force. At that stop, the crossbow almost knocked Yingshang down.
"Old Gao, look at Yingshang, it's really a strong city!" Zhang Liao looked at Yingshang City. Yingshang land was based on the Yingshui River, and Yuzhou was once a wealthy place. Even people like Liu Pi could make a fortune in Yuzhou because of the foundation of Yuzhou. If it were put before, Zhang Liao didn't even think about it and waited for the large army to come and fight. At least he had to fill the moat first, and then use the heads to pile up and pull it up.
But Yingchuan is now ruined.
"Old Gao, do you want to use the trap camp to fight?!" Zhang Liao wanted to tease Gao Shun.
Looking at the city walls of Yingshang, there was a towering moat. Who bombarded Liu Mang with a crossbow to attack the city? The moat was not completely filled. If he rushed over, he would definitely be a lot of casualties.
Gao Shun didn't even think about it but just two words: "Don't do it!"
"Old Gao, do you want to disobey?" Zhang Liao looked at Gao Shun with a smile. Yesterday, Gao Shun left him, the deputy commander, outside the camp, to rest on his own. Even if he knew he had come, he ignored him at all, so Zhang Liao naturally wanted to take revenge.
I was thinking of playing with Gao Shun, but I didn’t know that Gao Shun raised his head and gave Zhang Liao a blank look, “Are you stupid, attacking the city? I’m not stupid! Don’t go!”
Zhang Liao's smile that was playing with Gao Shun suddenly became stiff. It was indeed like a fool forcibly siege, but you can't be so straightforward. Zhang Liao just wanted to joke with Gao Shun and make you Gao Shun lower your head. But Gao Shun ignored Zhang Liao at all, you were just stupid!
It's really a cold man. Zhang Liao could only smile awkwardly. He said this was a joke with you and then he passed by first.
"Zhang Hu, come forward and shout!" Yingshang City can only attack the heart but not forcefully.
"Yes!" Zhang Hu nodded and ran to the city of Yingshang. He was suffocated to death by Gao Shun in the camp these days, and now he can finally let go of his voice and shout.
"Listen to the bastards in the city, your grandfather Zhang Hu is here, and those who know the truth will immediately open the city gate, otherwise you will definitely not keep your family when you break the city!" Zhang Hu's voice was loud enough. After this voice, the city wall was in a constant stir.
"What should I do if the Yangzhou army is here?" There was constant turmoil on the city wall. There were not many defenders in Yingshang, and the total number was only more than 5,000. Yingshang City was so big. The current Yingshang prefect is still an unknown person. However, he could read a little, and then he was chosen by Liu Bei as the prefect.
"Don't panic, don't panic! We have the Yingshang City Wall and the moat, and this city will not be broken for a while!" The Yingshang defender general spoke to stabilize the morale of the army.
The general's words made the tense atmosphere at the scene heavier. What does it mean that it will not be broken for a while? It will be broken sooner or later.
"Stay on guard and wait for help, stay for help! Uncle Liu will definitely come back to save us!" Yingshang Prefect was angry. If he was not Liu Bei, he would be the most a teacher. Being a prefect is simply a fool. But because Liu Bei had taken the position of this prefect, he was still very grateful to Liu Bei, the prefect of Yingshang. If Yingshang City was destroyed, where would he be the prefect!
How could there be reinforcements? These people are still clear about their minds. Their lords are defeated again and again, and now they are unable to protect themselves, but they still want to deceive themselves. After all, as long as the city is still there, they still have a glimmer of life. If the city is lost, it will be slaughtered. Although they only have 5,000 defenders now, there are tens of thousands of people in the city, and they can still encourage the people to come to defend the city.
"That's right, you can't surrender. Haven't you seen An Fengjin look like?" The man from Yingshang Prefect shouted loudly.
Anfengjin? Anfengjin is not far from Yingshang. The fire in Anfengjin can even be seen in Yingshang. There are deserters in Anfengjin fleeing to Yingshang. These people told the tragic incident of Anfengjin to the defenders of Yingshang with tears in their noses and tears.
When it comes to Anfengjin, the defenders on the city wall have identified it. They are all people in this city. What if the city is broken and Yingshang has also become Anfengjin?
"Listen to the defenders in the city, give you a stick of incense stick of time, and a stick of incense stick of time will not come down again. Don't blame you for sending troops to attack for so long." Zhang Hu roared loudly from the side.
"Ge Jun, go too!" Zhang Liao looked at the faces of the Yingshang defenders on the city wall, knowing that these people wanted to defend the enemy. This was not in line with his Zhang Liao's idea, so he said to Ge Jun next to him, Ge Jun nodded and rushed forward.
"General Zhang, General Zhang. Do not persuade him to surrender, do not persuade him to surrender!" Ge Jun walked up and shouted at Zhang Hu.
"Ge Jun, why are you here?" Zhang Hu looked at Ge Jun and asked in confusion.
"I came here to make the general not persuade the surrender." Ge Jun said to Zhang Hu.
"Don't persuade him to surrender?" Zhang Hu was stunned for a moment. It was Zhang Liao who sent him to persuade him to surrender. Why has it changed now? However, when he saw Ge Jun's eyes, Zhang Hu still understood.
"Yes. You can't persuade the surrender! If you persuade the surrender, how can you get the wealth in this city?" Ge Jun shouted.
"Treasure?" The defenders on the Yingshang City Wall were a little confused.
"Caibao, this treasure is not only in the prefect's mansion and the military camp, but also in the homes of those people." Ge Jun's voice became louder again.
"Okay, okay, I know, I know, you see, these Yangzhou troops are not kind-hearted. They want to go to our Yingshang to burn, kill, rob and abuse. How can we surrender and make fish on the chopping board?" The prefect of Yingshang was a little angry. "We want to live and die with Yingshang, and we can't let them harm our people!" He shouted. Yingshang City suddenly looked at it with the enemy.
"The people's hearts can be used to be used to be used to be used to!" The prefect of Yingshang was very happy. The Yangzhou army could not have allowed the people of Yingshang to help him, so he could not defend him no matter how hard he was defended. However, if he received the support of the people, it would be different. The people in the city guard the city together, with the height of the Yingshang city, he could at least hold on for a long time.
"General Zhang Hu. You must know that our lord, Your Highness, the King of Shu, is kind-hearted and treats the people. That's a good thing, especially for the people under your rule. Look, the tax is only charged three levels!" Ge Jun continued to shout.
"Three layers?" The defenders on the city wall were a little silenced. You should know that in Yuzhou, Liu Bei would receive 50% of them. Even so, everyone was grateful. Some of the other princes reached 70% or 80%, but in Yangzhou, there were only 30% or 30%.
"30% taxes are paid, lord, this is to benefit the people!" Zhang Hu was also flattering Liu Mang.
"Who said no!" Ge Jun and Zhang Hu sang a double act. "Our lord, everything else is good, but there is one thing, that is, it takes care of the people too much. Not only the people of Yangzhou, but also the people of this great Han!"
"General Ge Jun, but what does this have to do with not persuading surrender!" Zhang Hu asked in confusion.
"Of course it's a big deal!" Ge Jun looked so angry that he was not strong enough. "It's because the lord is so nice to this people that we brothers have no money to make. It's hard to fight a war, so that the brothers can fill their stomachs!" This belly is naturally the waist bag.
"If you persuade me to surrender, will this Yingshang City become the lord's command? Why do we still use it to rob it? How can we rob it? You don't know the lord's military law. You are not allowed to take every needle and thread from the people. If you take it, you will be beheaded."
"Ahhhh!" Zhang Hu was shocked, "What should I do!"
"General Zhang Hu, so we can't persuade us to surrender. We are waiting for us to conquer Yingshang. Haha, this Yingshang is ours. They are enemies, and the people under their rule are naturally enemies. It is natural to steal the enemy. There are really too many white silver in Yingshang, beautiful girls! At that time, we can eat delicious food and drink, and we can sleep with the food. This day is comfortable. If you persuade us to surrender, then the brothers will be versatile. Just take down the silver rewards from Yingshang, how much money can you get? The ones who grab Yingshang and rob him are the chance to make a fortune." Ge Jun looked at Zhang Hu with a grudge.
"What should I do? What should I do?" The city wall became shaken again. Ge Jun was carefully describing how to rob. These Xiliang Iron Cavalry have done a lot of these things. Even if they haven't seen it, they are naturally painted and painted, making everyone on the city wall dangerous.
"I'm crazy. If you want to take down my Yingshang, you have to see if the swords and guns in our hands are willing or not!" The prefect of Yingshang snorted coldly, which made everyone in Yingshang feel a little calmer. Yes. They still have weapons, and Yingshang City is still in their hands. As long as Yingshang City is not broken, what Ge Jun said below is a fool. Thinking of this, the defenders of Yingshang have a deeper heart to fight to the death.
"General Ge Jun, if you don't persuade me to surrender, Yingshang City will have to be piled up with the lives of your brothers. You can't be killed or injured for the money," Zhang Hu said earnestly to Ge Jun.
"Haha, this is why you, Zhang Hu, don't understand it. If you want to read two more military books, you just don't listen to them or you know how to act recklessly. In Yingshang City, don't look at it for several battles, and it's surrounded by moats. In fact, he has many flaws, and it's easy to take him down." Ge Jun looked at Zhang Hu with disgust.
"It's easy to take my Yingshang? Then come! This prefect is waiting for you in the city! See how many people you have to be killed or injured before you can come to the prefect." The prefect of Yingshang was a little disdainful. Although this Yingshang city has been broken once, it has been repaired at least. You can easily take it down with just one word. As the defenders in this city, they are all for a good meal.
"Don't believe it! Do you still remember what the lord said?" Ge Jun said disdainfully.
"What's the matter?"
"Nature is the saying. The most solid fortress in the world is often not breached from outside! But from inside!" Ge Jun was popularizing knowledge for Zhang Hu.
"Inner? Are we in the Yingshang City, General Ge, and we responded internally?" Zhang Hu asked deliberately.
"Insider?" The defenders on the city wall looked at each other.
"Don't be suspicious, how can there be an insider in our city? This is just a trick of the enemy." The prefect of Yingshang comforted the people.
"How could we have an inner support in the city?" Ge Jun was also catering to the prefect of Yingshang.
"So how to break the city!"
"Haha, this method of breaking the city is here!" Ge Jun said, pointing to his mouth.
"mouth?"
"Why do you want to die with your mouth? If your mouth could kill people, we would have died thousands of times long ago!" Yingshang prefect said sarcastically, and laughter continued on the city.
"It's just a mouth, but this mouth is not ours, but theirs." Ge Jun looked at the Yingshang defenders on the city wall with cold eyes.
"Theirs?"
"General Zhang Hu, I ask you, what is this person most inseparable from!"
"It's mothers," Zhang Hu said it without thinking, making everyone smile.
"Made knew that the grains were a bit promising!" Ge Jun laughed and scolded, "What this person cannot do without is the food that opens his mouth!"
"What's the meaning?"
"General Zhang Hu, how much do you want to eat in one meal?"
"A few kilograms of grain!"
"Yes. You are a soldier and you naturally have to eat more, and we can eat. The defenders in this city wall may not have to eat. Their food and grass have not been sent to them yet." As soon as Ge Jun said this, many people on the city wall became restless. It was indeed a long time since they paid food and wages.
"Who was taken away by me?" Zhang Hu asked with his eyes wide open.
After Zhang Hu said this, the Yingshang defenders turned their attention to the garrison general and the Yingshang prefect.
