Chapter 5900 Taking the bait
Chapter 5903 Taking the bait
“No matter how ferocious their traitors are, they will still lose this battle.” He Anyi smiled and said, “If If we can't persuade them to surrender, we can attack by force once our new weapons arrive."
< br>"Is it the bronze artillery shipped from the Beijing Science and Technology Garden?" Jiang Wulang knew the inside story, but he only knew a rough idea. It is said that the power of this bronze artillery has been greatly improved based on the original artillery. Originally, it could only be used New ships on the sea, and now that their power has increased, they can be used to attack cities.
I just heard that it is still under development and I don’t know when it will be completed.
"Yes, I just got the news a few days ago that a batch of artillery was secretly transported from the capital via water transport. There are five artillery pieces in total. There are enough gunpowder and shells. It may not be impossible to attack the city gate directly."
He Anyi Continued: "As long as the artillery goes smoothly Once they are brought here, we don’t have to think hard about any strategy. After blasting the city gates with artillery, we will chase them all the way and make it difficult for the puppet emperor Qin Hanqing to fly.”
“Well, let’s go back and prepare. Well, send someone to persuade him to surrender first." Jiang Wulang nodded.
At this time, after receiving the news, all the generals were very excited, and their original fear of Fang Yangcheng, a strong city, was completely dissipated.
He turned his horse back to the camp, and when night came, He Anyi and Jiang Wulang were both in the camp, looking at the defense map of Fangyang City.
"An Yi, during the day, you revealed the secret in front of many soldiers. Are there any traitors or traitors in our army?" Jiang Wulang raised his head and asked.
“It’s not a traitor, it’s a traitor Chazi who has infiltrated into our army. In recent years, our National Guard Army has recruited many good family members from near Tongtian River, among whom there are traitor Chazi lurking. , I deliberately revealed the secret this time to let them expose themselves." He Anyi stretched out his palm and closed it with his fingers, everything was under his control.
"Since you knew there was a Chazi, why didn't you capture it early?" Jiang Wulang asked.
"Keeping it is of great use. It can be used to confuse the enemy at critical times." He Anyi smiled slightly.
"You can do whatever you want, I don't care about that anyway." Jiang Wulang only led the troops to fight. Many affairs in the army were handled by He Anyi, and he didn't care.
When Luo Fengtang was in the army, He Anyi was already handling it.
After Luo Fengtang returned home and intended to hand over his military power, He Anyi's authority increased even more.
Jiang Wulang is Luo Fengtang’s literary courage, and He Anyi is Luo Fengtang’s literary courage.
With He Anyi here, the Protectorate Army belongs to Luo Fengtang, and no one can take it away.
After some time, a soldier from outside hurriedly entered the camp. He knelt down on one knee and clasped his fists with his hands and said, "Tell General He that the fish has been baited and the news has been passed on."
< br>
"Very good. Don't act rashly to alert the enemy. You can just monitor in secret." A smile appeared on He Anyi's face.
"Yes, I obey." The soldier responded immediately.
......
At this time, Fangyang City was completely in ruins.
The streets were closed with gates everywhere, and no one could be seen except the soldiers. The people who could run had already fled Fang Yang when the war in Jinzhou was not going well.
Those who had made plans earlier knew that Fang Yang was not safe the moment the nearby city was breached and chose to leave.
When the autumn wind blows, the fallen leaves swirl and fall to the ground. The piles of fallen leaves in the corners make it even more desolate. At this time, in Fangyang City, Fei Xingwei followed Qin and Hanqing to inspect the city defense.
"Your Majesty, our Fang Yang city defense weapons are very reliable, and we are well prepared with gold juice and fierce fire oil. We just need to be prepared for everyone to dig holes in the ground to surprise us. Under the corners of each city wall The urns are also ready, it can be said to be foolproof," Fei Xingwei said with a flattering smile.
Qin Hanqing looked at the many weapons for defending the city on top of the city and had to sigh that the minds of these people were just different.
The Han people spent all their time learning how to ride horses and archery, while these people all spent their time defending the city.
Add a base to the bed crossbow, and it can swing up, down, left and right, or even use a runner to greatly increase the rate of fire.
He remembered the embarrassment of being almost shot by Fuzi's crossbow at the top of the city.
There are many such crossbow weapons in Fang Yangcheng's arsenal. Qin and Han Qing looked down upon them before, but when facing the Han cavalry, these things were all a joke!
But now that I think about it, a commander who is not too dim can really make these things work.
"It's easy to talk, Fang Yang can hold it, you have done a great job for Xingwei, I will definitely recommend your contribution to His Majesty." Qin Hanqing patted the pot on the top of the city and said with a smile.
The pot on the top of the city was used to boil water, but the water was not used for drinking. It was used to pour water and burn the enemy soldiers when the Qi army attacked the city.
When Fei Xingwei heard this, his face lit up with joy, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the art of war says: Ten is to encircle an enemy, five is to attack, double is to fight, and the enemy can be divided. If you have less, you can defend it; if you don't, you can avoid it. Our Han army has more than 150,000 troops in Fangyang. He Jiang. Is it possible that Wu Lang has 1.5 million?"
"As far as I know, it is similar to ours, so there is no need to worry too much about Fang Yang City being destroyed."
" How was Lin Ancheng destroyed?" Qin Hanqing said with a sneer.
Qin Bangchao was guarding Lin'an City. Although he was disobedient and went out of the city to see the Qi army's armaments, he was still following the route of holding firm and clearing the country.
What’s the result? Hasn't it been taken down yet?
Fei Xingwei’s mouth twitched when he heard this!
He got angry when he said this. He was responsible for the defense of Lin'an City. He also knew that the city wall was in disrepair and had an unstable foundation when it was built.
And he told Qin Bangchao many times that he wanted to strengthen the city wall, but Qin Bangchao didn't take it to heart at all and neither gave him money nor people. How could he strengthen it?
But now everyone blames Fei Xingwei for the destruction of Lin'an City, thinking that he did not defend well!
And there is no way to explain this grievance. Who asked Qin Bangchao to be named Qin, and he was just a Qi man!
"Your Majesty is a sensible person, Qin Bangchao and them are too stubborn." Fei Xingwei defended in a low voice.
Qin Hanqing laughed loudly when he heard this and looked at Fei Xingwei. He patted Fei Xingwei repeatedly and said, "This time the city defense will be given to you. As long as you can defend it until early winter, you can wait until you return to Anyi." The government will definitely give you a reward based on your merits!”
This is not too much to ask. In early winter, it will be four months, about one hundred and twenty-two days, and it will be the time for heavy snow.
The weather in the north has been generally cold in the past two years, and the days when the river freezes are more than ten days earlier than before.
"Then it's up to you." Fei Xingwei nodded and bowed quickly. Now Qin and Hanqing had left all the matters of defending the city to him. He didn't care about anything and only inspected regularly.
