Chapter 551 Wu Jun's plan is really not that simple

A few days later, the sound of killing in Wuchang City shook the sky, and the Wu army troops came one after another, gathering into a spectacular scene. Rows of arrow rains like locusts poured out onto the city. However, the soldiers of the Eyue Army were not showing any weakness. The crossbows in groups made a creaking sound of being pulled, and then they shot out a dense rain of arrows, attacking the Wu army under the city.

Ding Hui climbed up to the city gate tower and supervised the battle himself. He found that the Wu army's siege array was equipped with dozens of stone throwers, bombing heavy rock bombs at the top of the city. After being hit by stone bombs on the city wall, a stream of yellow smoke suddenly rolled up. Although there were several cracks, it was not enough to smash the city walls into pieces.

After all, the E Yue Army was adjacent to the Wu Kingdom, and its capital was Wuchang, which was the core important place of the vassal states. The city walls were made of extremely strong earth paint and reinforced with bricks and tiles. The solid city gates were enough to withstand the bombardment of ordinary siege equipment. Unless the enemy's offensive was protracted, it would be difficult to shake this famous city that was located at the intersection of the Yangtze River and the Han River.

If the Wu army really wanted to attack Wuchang, how long would they plan to capture Chengguan? After all, Ding Hui and E Yue Junerlang were not decorations. Then Yang Xingmi thought this battle would last? How many months would it take? Half a year? Or more than a year?

However, the army led by His Majesty, and even his neighbors and colleagues Yajun, will be able to reach Wuchang within ten days. If Yang Xingmi could have lured His Majesty to come, even if his navy is good at fighting, he really thought that fighting land war would be better than our dynasty?

Therefore, Ding Hui vaguely felt that the plan of Wu State would not be to rush to conquer the Eyue Army's vassal states, and it was as simple as deciding with his own forces under the city of Wuchang. He looked out of the city and saw Wu Navy ships shuttled back and forth on the river in the distance. The soldiers who landed on the shore seemed to be rectifying the various tools used to attack the city. In addition, although the infantry that was forcing the city to reach a certain scale, Ding Hui roughly estimated that the number of people in the naval army that Wu State killed in Wuchang was only about 30,000.

Ding Hui also thought that it would be better to go out of the city to fight, trying to kill the enemy troops that had landed in front of the city first, and to drive the remaining defeated generals back to the moored Zhoushi ship to escape, so as to kill the mighty state of Wu.

However, the Eyue Zhenya Army was indeed suppressed by the Wu Kingdom in the water battle. Although Ding Hui was born in Shouchun, the water battle was not his master's ability... In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, the navy army of his troops did not guard various ports and water camps, which also allowed the Wu army's Zhou army to easily seize a large number of ships. Ding Hui could not find out in time how many Wu army troops were lurking in the nearby waters, and waited for him to leave the city to fight, intending to encircle and kill him.

So we must be careful... Since about ten days, all the robes will be killed in Wuchang one after another. When the Wu army attacked, I will defend the enemy. I must not fall into the enemy's tricks. Just guard the city with peace of mind. In short, I cannot give them any opportunity to take advantage of... Waiting for our reinforcements...

Ding Hui then patrolled the city of Wuchang steadily, and the soldiers of the E Yue army guarding the city gate also stepped up to resist the offensive launched by the Wu army. The Wu army seemed to have room for a while, and the war lasted for about an hour. Although the Wu army, as the attacking side, the soldiers suffered more losses than the E Yue army guarding Wuchang, the casualties were not very heavy, so he led his troops to retreat until the next day, as usual, he launched an attack on the Wuchang city wall again...

Until the ninth day, several centipede clutch ships rushed through the river and rushed towards Wu Guozhou, who gathered in the waters near Wuchang.

After the general's school reported that a navy military academy boarded the warship where Liu Cun was and rushed to him quickly, and immediately reported:

"I reported to recruit envoys, and Zhang Guiba, and Zhang Guihou would arrive at the city of Wuchang in less than three or two hours; Huainan army would use firewood again, and in about one or two days, it would enter the boundary of Ezhou; and the king of the Huainian army marched to Qizhou (later affiliated with Qichun County, Hubei Province) and then to Huangzhou, it would also enter the territory of the Eyue Army under the jurisdiction of the Eyue Army... The total number of enemy troops in these three routes was about 50,000 or 60,000, and they would be deployed to Wuchang to help the Eyue Army attack our naval and army.

As for Emperor Li Tianqu of Wei, although he could not find out where the army led by him had arrived. According to previous expectations, if he led the three armies to the south, he would enter the territory under the Eyue Army within five days!"

"Li Tianqu, who was trying to join forces with King Li Keyong of Jin to defeat Zhu Wen, and then turn around to deal with our army... Therefore, he ordered the Wei State Eyue, Huaixi, Huainan, and Xusi to take the defensive power first, and take the horns of each other to support each other to fight against our army.

Hum! His plan was overwhelming, and the various units of our Wu Navy and Army raided all prefectures in Jiangbei to test the reactions of the vassal states in the Wei State. This time, he made a fierce attack on the Wuchang city of the Eyue Army, and the neighboring vassal states really allocated military power, and they also intended to fight our army to the death as soon as possible on land."

Liu Cun said in a deep voice, suddenly he grew taller. When he looked at the outline of Wuchang City in the distance again, a ferocious smile appeared on his face:

"According to the commander of Li Du, the four towns in the north helped each other, and they were afraid that our army would concentrate its forces to specialize in one place and to feint attack a city wall. As long as those vassal states had to dispatch troops to guard against them. As long as they were moved, they would definitely reveal flaws.

After sending the order, the troops who attacked Wuchang returned to Zhoushi. Our army withdrew from Ezhou, and there was no need to fight with Li Tianqu, Xu Si, Huainan and other vassal vassal yamen... If the enemy wants to mobilize, it will delay the situation of delaying Russia for a few days. However, in these few days, the king and the commander of the capital will immediately lead troops to attack. I believe that the three places are now deployed to the vassal yamen to support Wuchang, and the enemy has also been ambushed by our army..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Under the jurisdiction of Qizhou, a low mountainous area in the north was covered with mountains and mountains. The canyon was deep, and suddenly, fire lights rose up. As the fire grew, the flames soared into the sky. The canyon became a piece. Under the moxibustion of the fire, a large number of soldiers also let out heart-wrenching howls!

"What's going on? Why did the Wu army set up an ambush, but why did he never find any noise before??"

The Tooth General Wangtan, who belonged to the Huaixi Army's vassal state, saw the surrounding roads burning, and a large number of soldiers were swallowed up by the flames, becoming burning firemen, and could only run and wail... His face was frightened and he kept shouting loudly.

Originally, Wang Tan was ordered by the Jiedushi Tian Fujun to set up defenses and observe the vassal states of the Eyue Army, paying attention to the movements of the Wu army. Since the Huainan army was used again, the Xu Si army Zhang Guiba, Zhang Guihou brothers and other generals took action, and the Ya army led by him was the side division of the road. If it was Wei and Wu, the Wu side, launched a battle in the Eyue Army, Wang Tan's responsibility was only to assist in fighting. According to the progress of the war, after all, it was necessary to guard the Huainan Anrenyi who was under the control of the territory of Huainan. Whether Tian Fu in Huainxi would also personally lead the main force of the Ya army and then devote himself to this war.

However, before he reached his destination, Wang Tan was shocked to have stepped into the ambush of the enemy. What made him even more unbelievable was that the Wu army seemed to appear out of thin air and could not be noticed in advance!

Wang Tan didn't know that according to his original fate, after following Tian Fu and betrayed Yang Xingmi together, he encountered enemy generals in the fight against rebellion in Wu. He set fire to the fire, which caused his subordinates to suffer invincible losses... Although he and Tian Fu successfully turned to Li Tianqu, they are now the original historical trajectory. They ran into the nemesis of Wu and killed him again...
