Chapter 2827 The Emperor Escaped
The middle-aged emperor was furious and immediately ordered: "Closing the city firmly for us, we will kill all these troublemakers!"
"No one of them dares to threaten our country!"
"Yes, the emperor!"
Then the emperor brought someone to a close, and the eyes were gone.
The middle-aged Ministry of Revenue manager breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, three people interrupted, which attracted the emperor's attention and allowed him to escape his life.
When I got home, I gave the three people a stick of incense.
Then the middle-aged emperor's army of 120,000 sent 50,000 people to surround the city.
Another 70,000 people were stationed on different main roads.
The army cannot be stationed together.
First of all, it is water source and camp problem.
Secondly, once someone is attacked, it will lead to chaos and gather together, chain chaos will occur and there will be no soldiers to save.
This is the most basic military common sense.
Although division of troops is a taboo in military strategists, they often have to divide troops. If they are concentrated together, the harm will be greater.
The emperor looked at the city in the distance and had no intention of sending people to persuade him to surrender, so he directly ordered an attack.
But what surprised him was that the city that he thought was destroyed in one go made his Beijing camp extremely uncomfortable.
The city has various defenses on the shelves, with golden juice fragrant for ten miles and traps everywhere.
If you want to log and make siege equipment, the nearby dry land has long died, and it has been cut down as fuel, and the mountains are all bald.
They could only use the simple ladder they carried with the army to attack the city.
This difficulty can be imagined?
On normal siege, we will cut down trees nearby and make various well-protected complex siege equipment.
Siege hammers, earthen buildings, well railings, siege cars...
Soldiers can directly hit the height of the city wall and go directly to the city wall from the building.
The emergence of these siege equipment would force the people in the city to send troops out to destroy them.
It would be very difficult if you don't send troops and want to smash it with rockets and stones.
Then the two sides can reach a certain balance.
Of course, the people in the city still have an advantage.
That is, the person who goes to the city wall through this kind of siege equipment is just one point, at most a few points.
After all, these equipment are complex in production and numerous materials, which takes a long time to make it, so it is impossible to make a lot of them in one go.
And now there are not even these devices.
The middle-aged emperor thought that these bandits had low morale, and when he saw the emperor's flag, he would flee.
So the other party actually used stones and gold juice to destroy his elite soldiers one by one!
You must know that these soldiers are all elite soldiers who have been trained for many years.
In contrast, their opponents, those thieves, were still farmers a few months ago.
Relying on the advantage of the city wall, one elite soldiers after another were killed!
Of course, the soldiers were also shooting from bottom to top with bows and arrows to protect their companions.
There are many protective arrow devices on the city wall, which makes it possible for only very elite archers to accurately shoot and kill bandits.
In this way, the exchange ratio becomes ugly.
You should know that there are at least tens of thousands of bandits in the city.
With the city defense, morale declines very slowly.
If two thousand people were killed or injured in the wild, these people should collapse.
But because of the city walls and the city, it is difficult for these people to collapse.
The main reason is that the city wall has a visual blocking effect - there is no way to see how much death there is here elsewhere, so people can be replenished from the city continuously.
This is also the reason why many seemingly ordinary cities, but not many professional soldiers, can stand under the army for several months.
For example, the county town that has been in charge for more than 80 days.
At this time, the middle-aged emperor never expected that his own way of retreat had actually been cut off.
At this time, the four people had already issued a command via radio.
Let the rebel teams scattered everywhere attack from all sides and cut off the long supply line of the emperor's chafed team.
The supply line for middle-aged emperors today mainly comes from provinces that are not affected by disasters.
They used a big cart to pull the long road and finally gathered at the emperor's camp.
Just like an ant moving, transporting it slowly and for a long time from several places to save money.
However, these transportation lines were intercepted in various ways almost at the same time.
This is something that the middle-aged emperor never encountered in previous wars.
When the report came from behind and the grain roads of various provinces were intercepted, the emperor was stunned.
He didn't understand what tactic the other party was using.
In his traditional idea, the two sides fought together.
When two sides fight, one side fights the other, the place where the other side must be rescued.
One side is defending, the other side is attacking.
Of course there are many things to strangle the other party’s food route to death.
But one side went around and the other side sent troops to intercept it.
The two sides fought each other on one point and one line.
Now, the seemingly stable rear is surrounded by enemies and is attacked everywhere.
Automatic documents are everywhere.
"The food and grass in XX Province were robbed by the bandits halfway."
"The vegetables in XX Mansion were robbed by the bandits."
There are endless news.
It accounts for almost half of the daily documents.
"Who will tell us what's going on?"
"Why did our prosperity turn into smoke overnight?"
"Is this the prosperity you give us every day?"
In anger, the emperor threw a few young managers who often wrote Qing Ci to death in a sack.
He naturally didn't know that Wen Sheng and the other four had already advanced the war to the point of "surface".
In other words, the emperor still fought at points and on the line.
However, the four of them were already fighting on the "face".
This is what radio does.
On the radio, a large team can be summoned to attack from all sides and coordinate the pace at the same time.
This is equivalent to a chess game. The emperor was restricted by slow communication and could only take one step, but they could take three or four steps at the same time.
The emperor gave the order to go to the capital to respond, which would take half a month.
And the four of them only take a few minutes.
If the emperor dispersed his troops to deal with it, a big problem would arise.
It is easy for him to disperse, so he must have a high trust in his generals.
Because the dispersed generals took more than ten days to deliver the message to him.
He could easily fall into the fog of information.
And it is easy to disperse, but once you want to take it back, it will be difficult.
He has fewer troops here, which can easily become a fatal weakness.
So, he couldn't do this.
If his team was scattered around, it would take more than ten days to communicate alone, and then there would be no way to coordinate the battle.
So the emperor's soldiers can only concentrate on one point and attack along a line.
At the same time, we sent troops to maintain our supply line.
Faced with this situation, the emperor had to order the establishment of grain platforms and fortresses on the supply line to defend against enemy attacks.
At the same time, chafing teams were sent for escorts to minimize long distances.
In this way, the success rate of the opponent's attack can be greatly reduced.
But this set is too slow to implement.
Wen Sheng and the other two continued to use radio on the same surface to harasse the other party’s food channels.
The middle-aged emperor looked at the increasingly serious supply line, but he was not stupid.
A total of 5,000 cavalry were directly sent to transport food and grass.
However, these 5,000 cavalry themselves consume a lot.
And, they soon meet a real opponent.
Some elites appeared.
They began to harass and attack the cavalry in the middle of the night.
In the middle of the night, you can't run a horse casually.
Because in the middle of the night, the horse cannot see if there is a pit on the ground. The harasser can greatly expand the reconnaissance circle by relying on the radio.
They sent a small number of people to hide near the supply line.
As long as the cavalry is found, the large team behind will be notified.
The brigade's people were very insidious. They dug a large number of pits on the ground, less than 30 cm deep.
Then in the middle of the night, relying on radio communication, the cavalry was reconnaissance in front of them and they sent a message to them when they were resting, and they ran to attack the cavalry team.
As soon as the cavalry came to chase, they ran away.
Of course, two legs can't run out of four legs.
But as soon as these cavalry catch up, their horse's hooves will be broken.
As soon as the horse's hooves were broken, the horse was destroyed and the cavalry was thrown out.
It can be said that there is no way to treat them well.
This move is very cruel.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
If it is broad daylight, they can see the trap from afar and stop.
If it is dark, it will not be possible.
This tactic must be based on radio communication.
A small number of people must detect the movements of the cavalry, otherwise they will be surrounded by the cavalry.
Once entangled by cavalry, it will be the end of annihilation of the entire army.
But now there is complete information, so the cavalry can only run away.
These cavalry had no way to attack in the middle of the night, so they could only shrink into a group.
Wait until the daytime, search and deal with these attackers.
So the attackers took the initiative again.
They scattered and hid during the day, gathered in the middle of the night, and then sneaked into attacks and attacked the other party's supply line.
Cavals can only patrol along the supply line.
The supply line cannot be changed at will.
The reason is very simple. It requires a large truck to transport grain and grass, and there are only a few large roads that can be taken by large trucks.
The car cannot be like a human, crossing mountains and ridges at will, and walking around in the wilderness.
Many wild areas are potholes and mud, and they can't move at all.
You must follow the dirt road.
And the wheels couldn't get through at all.
And it is not possible to rely on people to transport food and grass, because it cannot be transported far away.
The best way to replenish supplies in ancient times was through water transportation.
It's easier to defend on the water.
Because the water surface is wide, it is difficult for thieves to attack sneakily.
Backing the ship, you can defend well.
Therefore, digging a canal has always been an important project.
In this way, the cavalry was exhausted but could not catch the opponent.
It would be useless to catch it once or twice occasionally.
Because those people changed their strategies again, they sent a few horses to keep an eye on the cavalry.
They dodge the cavalry and attack other supply points.
In this way, the middle-aged emperor encountered food and grass difficulties half a month later.
Although at this stage, he sieges the city and sent out chasing troops to attack and sweep the city, which can be said to be invincible.
One rebel army organized by Qingyun Association after another came to rescue the city, but he was defeated.
But his supply line is getting longer and longer, and the food and grass are transported from behind.
And he brought more than 10,000 cavalrymen, and the cavalry could eat 5 people or even 10 people.
Not only do you eat a lot, but you also need to eat well.
Hors don't eat well, but they are not as patient as humans.
The war horses stopped running and they didn't run away if they were beaten to death.
If you want to fight, you must eat beans and eggs.
With these two high-energy nutrition, horses cannot run at all, and they must spend a lot of time looking for grass to eat on their own.
This way, you can't fight.
This day.
The food and supplies official crawled over to report with trembling. "Your Majesty, there are only 10 days left for the food and grass that can be used by the army."
"If more food is not shipped, the supply must be reduced by half."
"What? There are only 10 days left in food and grass? "The middle-aged emperor was shocked.
He never expected that the food and grass reserves would drop so quickly.
You should know that the army is outside, and 10 days will pass in the blink of an eye.
It took half a month to attack a city.
And the other party's harassment was delayed, and a few days passed.
Generally speaking, when a large army is outside, you have to carry food and grass for at least one month to stabilize the morale of the army.
Because of one month's food and grass, it is enough for the army to retreat to safe range.
Able to reach the next food and grass supply point.
This cannot exceed 30 days' journey.
They now only have 10 days of food and grass, and the surrounding area is full of disaster areas, and there is no place to force the supply.
The nearby counties and townships are full of severe drought, and there is no food or grass available at all. "Damn it, where did the thieves get the food and grass?"
The middle-aged emperor was puzzled.
He naturally didn't know that this was all mobilized from the Qingyun Association branches in various places through radio.
And they avoided the main roads of their court and walked on small roads.
The court seems to have strict rule, but in fact it can only rule to the county level.
When you go to the countryside, it is the world of Qingyunhui.
Because Qingyun has magical tools.
The sound that is revealed in the radio is considered an angel by many people.
Even the local clans are confident.
There is no way, the middle-aged emperor is still a shrewd man after all.
He knew that he could only choose to retreat now.
If there is insufficient food and grass, you cannot persist.
Persistence is seeking death.
The whole army was wiped out.
How did Yuan Shao get lost?
Isn’t it just that the food and grass are burned?
How many days could I hold on at that time?
The morale was gone as a result.
However, he ordered another county town to be attacked.
After capturing the county town, the city was massacred.
After doing all this, he saw that his morale was restored, so he led his troops to return.
I replied to the court along the way and said it was a "triumphant".
And at this time.
Wensheng and four others already knew that the emperor was in a state of cutting off food and grass.
They already knew about it via radio.
So, they personally coordinated and 30,000 elite soldiers were ambushed on the middle-aged emperor's way back.
Then, infantry and cavalry were sent to harass the emperor's army in the middle of the night.
Now the 120,000 army has been fighting for many days, and only 90,000 are left.
In fact, there were no casualties and injuries.
Many spread out.
The middle-aged emperor found someone harassed him and immediately knew something was wrong.
He immediately left eighty thousand people, and he took 10,000 cavalry, immediately changed direction and fled northward.
Wensheng and the other two did not chase after him, but steadily caught up with the 80,000 people.
They are entangled all the way and will not fight until the other party runs out of food and collapses on their own.
This is when the captives begin to be captured.
But the emperor escaped.
It has to be said that the founding emperor is different.
