Chapter 763 Despicable tactics
Under the city of Lihua Mountain.
As the Taigu moved, three long spears stood up high like a forest.
A messenger on the horse road galloped past on his horse and shouted loudly: "Let's go with a long spear."
"oh."
The temporary peasants who were waiting on the ground stood up one after another, lined up in line under the command of the heads of each group, and began to move forward. Next to the gate, the logistics general Honda Toshi was standing there on a war horse, and behind him were the logistics peasants who were carrying the military rations bag by bag on the back of the pack horse and the small lotus cart.
Under the stone wall of the huge rocks in Lihua Mountain City, a flag group composed of messengers walked in front with the black eagle flag of the Luo family. At this time, the other flag groups had just left the Dashou Gate of Lihua Mountain City.
After the flag group, the sound of ding armor colliding passed. The soldiers of the regular footmen wore array hats and were dressed in imperial deeds that had been transformed by the Luo Family Workshop. They wore straw sandals and trotted all the way with long spears on their shoulders. They followed behind the flag group and ran out from the gate. The brightly colored black eagle flag fingers of the Luo Family were swinging in the wind, and from a distance they looked like black flames in their eyes.
Masara sat high on the back of the Southern Barbarian Horse "Lightning", wearing the iconic Luo Family Armor. His Nanman head pole was often held by the Xiao surname of the army, and the longbow was taken by Shimazu Yoshihiro, who followed him in turn. At the moment, he was slowly descending along the horse path in the city. Yamamoto Kazusuke, Hidao and other retainers were one or half behind him, following behind. Around him were the cloaks, and behind him was the samurai team.
"Kansuke, is there any new progress in the matter of sending an envoy to the eastern part of Chumaekikuo?"
Hearing Masaru Masaru, Kazusuke Yamamoto jumped off his horse with the help of several of his retainers and followed Masaru Masaru. He said respectfully: "Master, the Qiuyue family has agreed to advance and retreat with me. I believe they have already acted according to the plan agreed with me before. The Aso family is still hesitating, but if they learn that Tao Long was rebelled and Yoshitaka Ouchi was killed, they will definitely make a choice. Only the Zhanbu Suo of Xu Feishan Castle refused to win over the family, but considering that the person who came to persuade his wife, his younger brother, Lord Lu Ci, did not report to his family's sect."
"Hmph!" Zhengliang immediately snorted after hearing this, and used a horse whip to hit the air with a false impact. Yan said, "Since he is stubborn, don't give him a chance. This time he went out to build the eastern part of the Qian Kingdom, he would first flatten the Zhanbu family."
"Oh." Yamamoto Kazusuke agreed to retreat.
"Lord," said another military advisor Kakuma Ishisong, who was accompanying the army, rode a horse to approach Masayora and said. "Xu Feishan Castle is the gateway to the hinterland of the Sonsho House from the west, and the fortress is very strong."
Zhengliang nodded when he heard this. Xu Fei Mountain City, on both sides are the towering and steep Xu Fei Mountain and Tsuma Miami Mountain. Both of these high mountains belong to a section of the Sanjun Mountain Mountain Range extending to the northern coastal area. After years of management by the Zong Xiang family, its city walls are not only high, but also a city fortress of Erwan. The geographical location just happened to be stuck in the critical position of the western part of the Chuqian Kingdom to enter the eastern part of the East. It was like a gate, embedded in the northern end of the Sanjun Mountain Range that divides the Chuqian Kingdom into the east and west areas. In history, due to the special geographical location of Xu Fei Mountain City and its easy defense and difficult attack, the Zong Xiang family later moved Jucheng from Baishan City to here.
If Zhengliang's army was blocked by Xu Feishan City, then he had to divert the route along the seaside to the north island and advance to the direction of the island, which was once the location of the Zongxiang family's naval base. Now it was already a piece of burnt ruins. After arriving there, he would use the navy to transport the Luo family's military power to the Zongxiang family's coastal territory on the other side of the forest. However, another Luo family's army had already landed on that side. Now he was just going to join in the fun. And once this army left, the military power in Xu Fei city could support other places, and even take advantage of the emptiness in the western part of the Chuqian Kingdom to enter the Luo family's territory. So no matter what, Zhengliang's army would have to attack Xu Feishan City forcibly.
Faced with the invasion of the Dongzhuqian Kingdom region that the Luo family was about to carry out, Shang An, the Zhan tribe in Xu Fei City, had already made sufficient preparations. He had mobilized comprehensive troops in his territory and recruited men over 15 and under 50 years old, gathering more than 500 people. In addition, the 500 people who originally supported the Da'an family, now there are more than 1,000 people. He has made plans to fight the cage city.
You should know that although Xu Fei City is not a big city, it is built on a steep mountain, which is very easy to defend and difficult to attack. Before, it had reserved enough food and grass in the city, as well as iron cannons, so the soldiers and soldiers in the city were at peace. Even if the Luo family army attacked with all their strength, the Zhan tribe Shang'an had the confidence to defend and gave the Luo family army enough to kill.
But what made Zhanbu Shangan wonder was that after arriving at the city of Xu Feishan City, the Luo family was not in a hurry to attack. Instead, they slowly built a large camp under the city, and were ready to slowly fight a protracted battle with the defenders in the city.
"Sir Shang'an of Zhan's family, what do you think of the military power of the Luo family?" As the chief defender of the Da'ei family stationed in Xu Fei City, Xiangyue Zexiao immediately asked Zhan's family Shang'an after seeing the strange behavior of the Luo family's army.
"Hmph, did Lord Xiangyue see it? There is a golden family patterned eagle main flag in the other party's military formation? It is the unique main flag of the Fat Eagle Luo's family, and the cunning Fat Eagle is under the city?" Zhanbu Shangan said immediately.
"This?" Xiangyue Zexiao, who was standing on the top of the city, looked in the direction pointed by Shangan of the Zhan tribe, and indeed saw a large flag shining with golden colors in the sunshine in the army of the Luo family. The golden eagle above was shining in the sunshine.
"Hmph, the Eagle in Feiqian is just like this. Master Zhanbu, look, after you go down, the Luo family army coming to attack the city is not enough for a thousand people. With such a force, why is it an opponent of the city with more than one thousand people guarding?" Looking at the golden banner of the Luo family, Xiangyue Zexiao felt that the Luo family was demonstrating to them no matter how they looked at it, so she said immediately.
"Mr. Xiangyue, don't underestimate that cunning eagle. The other party has always been tricky, but no matter what the other party is, as long as we stick to the city fortress and cannot defend it, then we can naturally stop the other party's trick." Feeling that Xiangyue Zexiao was a little despised the Luo family's army's forces, and Shang An, who had already known the combat power of the Luo family's army, immediately reminded. Anyway, this time he was determined to hide in the city and could not defend it. With the cliffs on both sides of Xu Feishan City, the Luo family's army was unable to siege them, so he could only attack from the west, as long as he could not defend it, the Luo family could not do anything to him.
In the following days, the Luo family did not attack Xu Feishan City. Instead, they rested during the day and adopted harassment tactics at night. Although Shang An of Zhanbu had long known about the Luo family's tactics, after personally experiencing them, he realized its despicableness.
Whenever there were constant sounds of shouting and drumming outside the city at night, Zhan Jun Shangan had to send more soldiers guarding the city to the city wall. After a while, the soldiers were exhausted. Later, Zhan Jun Shangan thought of a way to deal with it, which was to divide the soldiers into several groups, and then take turns to guard the city wall when the Luo family came to attack the city, while the rest continued to rest. But this method was limited. After all, the main part of these soldiers was the general leader. When they were harassed at night, even if it was not their turn to go to the battlefield, they were still frightened and unable to rest safely, resulting in still being exhausted by harassment. If this continued, even if the Luo family army outside came in, these soldiers guarding the city would mutiny.
Just ignore the harassment of the Luo family and don’t send anyone to reinforce the city? What if the Luo family really changes from harassment to siege? You should know that although the walls of Xu Feicheng are tall, the other party also have long ladders that can be climbed. Then the city will be captured soon, and Xu Feicheng will be in danger. A simple harassment tactic of the Luo family will immediately become helpless in the city.
