Chapter 849 Secret Art
May.
Song Gongbao, the general who conquered the South, led his troops to the outside of Lishui County.
On the official road, there are continuous camps, and eighteen company battalions have been erected, faintly forming horns with the county town.
Song Gongbao and Wu Xingtan came back on horseback, a little worried: "The Liang thief is preparing to form a stronghold. It is really an odd number! According to common sense, it has not been long since a battle has just been fought, and the soldiers are not tired. Don't you have any complaints?"
Wu Xing replied: "According to the detailed information...the opposite is the fake Prime Minister Liang, with 5,000 soldiers and horses...not very easy to fight."
In city defense battles, it is common for thousands of people to persist for months or even years under the siege of tens of thousands of troops.
"map!"
Song Gongbao unfolded the map, took a closer look, and frowned: "The terrain of Lishui County is dangerous, with the dangers of mountains and rivers, the benefits of great rivers... easy to defend and difficult to attack, the other side also built a large number of cottages, echoing each other, if we don't pull them out one by one, we will Fang can't feel at ease when he attacks the city. Can you make a detour?"
"There are no other official roads nearby. If you go through the jungle, you can only pass through a small area if you go over the mountains and mountains. You must also discard food, grass and luggage, and kill yourself."
Wu Xing said cautiously: "Private Gao intends to send two divisions to detour to attack Jiangzhou Fucheng...but the Fucheng City is high and deep, with 7,000 Liang troops and 20,000 soldiers, it is not so easy to fight, and... I Fang Jun ordered to take the official route of Lishui County!"
Speaking of which, even a military division would have a headache.
Military orders are like mountains!
Privy Councilor Gao has already decided on a strategy in the rear, so there is much less room for maneuver in the front, and they can only attack Lishui County by force!
"Are you attacking?"
Song Gongbao sighed: "I'm sorry brothers..."
But he knew in his heart that the court was deliberately trying to consume him, and he had to cooperate.
Still the same sentence, the rebels recruiting security must remove their claws and claws, and the court cannot be threatened, otherwise disasters and fortunes will happen.
Moreover, there is a large army in the rear, the king wants the minister to die, and the minister has to die!
If you die in battle, you are still a loyal minister of the court, and you have a posthumous title. If you dare to rebel, you are a traitor!
Who asked them to recruit in the first place?
Wu Xing coughed twice. Since recruiting security, he has exhausted all his efforts and lost his shape, but he still couldn't recover anything.
At this time, he took out a white towel, wiped the blood spilling from the corner of his mouth, thought hard for a while, and said: "There are many kinds of attack methods... Our side has many people, and the other side has few people. There can be hundreds of people in a village at most. Most of the villages were surrounded but not attacked, only one by force, if the other party dares to rescue, I will lead the troops to attack it! Liang Jun has just experienced a big battle, and his military spirit may not be able to use it... This is also an opportunity for us, we can try to recruit him!"
"In this way, all the villages will be pulled out one by one, and finally the county can be attacked!"
"Although the county seat of Lishui County is not high, it is five feet tall, so it is very difficult to win..." Song Gongbao felt a little headache.
"If you want your brothers to be less injured, there is a way, which is to be a little bit shady."
Wu Xing gritted his teeth and said.
"Oh?" Song Gongbao was in a trance, and even thought that he had returned to the cottage. No matter what difficulties he encountered at that time, this military adviser could always give a good plan to turn the crisis into safety: "The plan will be safe?"
"Drive the people away, and attack the city with ants!" Wu Xing paused every word, and said, "There must be locals in the Lishui County defenders, and they will use their parents, wives and children to attack the city. Who can fight hard?"
"Even if there is no riot, you can still use the common people to consume the arrows, shovels, hot oil and other weapons in the city!"
Song Gongbao shuddered all over, and looked at the military division in shock.
Of course he knew that this strategy was feasible, but it was just too poisonous!
Even if Lishui County is conquered, there may be future troubles in the future.
As soon as Wu Xing said the words, he felt a little regretful, and waved his feather fan: "This is just my humble opinion..."
"Let me think, let me think..."
Song Gongbao waved his hand to make Wu Xing retreat, while he left the camp to inspect the barracks.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but he always feels that these old brothers' spirits, which were a little bit sluggish due to the continuous battle, are suddenly lifted!
Even Song Gongbao felt that his energy was much stronger, as if he had returned to the heyday of Xiaohuangshanzhai!
...
Chongming Road.
On a high platform.
Candles were burning, incense sticks were curling up, and the bright yellow tablecloths were filled with three sacrifices.
The great master had disheveled hair, held a mahogany sword, and was fighting step by step. Suddenly, when the tip of the sword was lifted, a piece of bright yellow talisman paper ignited spontaneously without wind. He picked it up with the tip of the sword, like a tree of fire and silver flowers, and finally directed Fang: "Go!"
Ziyu and other real people stopped to watch.
At this time, one by one opened their spiritual eyes, and they all saw a real dragon in a trance!
This real dragon's antlers, snake body, fish tail... The most important thing is that it has reverse scales. Although it looks weak at this time, it roars like a flash of light.
In the midst of the dragon chant, an invisible sword light rose from the capital, swept across the Kyushu, and headed south!
One sword light chills the nineteen continents!
"This is the luck secret technique that I have passed down from generation to generation..."
"I hope Grandmaster can succeed!"
"Although Dasong is in decline, he is still a true dragon. It is impossible for Daliang not to be restrained!"
The four real people looked at this scene with anticipation.
The next moment, they each used secret techniques, or water mirrors, or copper mirrors, and they all saw a wonderful scene!
In the south, in the black and red ocean, a black-backed carp quietly emerged!
Immediately afterwards, a sword light fell from the sky, and the carp was hit hard!
"Liang Guolong is weak and can't stop it at all..."
Master Ziyu smiled and nodded: "This is common sense..."
Master Ziyin frowned, "The king of Liang is powerful in the southeast, how can he be a carp?"
While several real people were contemplating, the grand master on the stage drew his sword and stood there, also silent for a long time.
"Grandmaster, how is it?"
The four real people waited for a while, and finally couldn't bear it anymore, and asked one after another.
"It was quite smooth, and it even seemed to be helped by heaven..."
Even though the great master said so, there was no trace of joy on his face: "It's just that although I suppressed Liang Wang's dragon aura, his military aura was not affected at all...and in the Southern Liang Wang's luck, I can't find the Qi of Xu Lingzi... ...seemed to be hidden."
Immortal Zi Lei was shocked: "This...then we are taking such a risk and using the secret technique of luck, is it useless in the end?"
If it is true, it must be a blood loss!
"It's not that..." The great master's expression was a bit secretive: "Xu Lingzi is not affected, but King Liang and other courtiers are not necessarily, it is always beneficial to us..."
...
Go back in time a moment.
Liang Palace.
When the great master did it, a sword light came across Kyushu to kill!
Xiao Liang, who was reading a book, suddenly changed his expression, and spurted out a mouthful of blood!
"Kings?!"
The surrounding maids and eunuchs were shocked.
"What? Your Majesty suddenly vomited blood and was unconscious?"
Cao Man, who had just come back, heard the news and couldn't help frowning: "Why did this happen? Can someone read it?"
"The medical officer looked at it, but they couldn't do anything. They just said that the king is fine!"
The little official who came to report the letter was a little panicked, and even a little uneasy.
Seeing this look, Cao Man couldn't help scolding him: "What are you afraid of? The prime minister is still here, so the sky won't collapse!"
While he was in trouble, another person from outside came to report: "Daoist Du Longzi, please see me!"
"please!"
Cao Man hurriedly said, and saw Du Longzi coming in briskly all the way, regardless of his manners: "The big thing is not good...someone cast a spell and suppressed King Liang's dragon spirit!"
"oh?"
Cao Man immediately thought of the matter of King Liang vomiting blood and fainted, and asked again: "Is there a way to solve it?"
Du Longzi suddenly had bitterness on his face: "There is no way for the old man to be inexperienced... But this suppression cannot last long, after all, the essence is that the real dragon of Dasong came to suppress the life of the dragon of King Liang... If the battle ahead can be won, the strength of both sides will naturally decline. It can be lifted."
But there was still one thing in his mind that he didn't say.
‘It’s not easy for King Liang’s Dragon Qi to be suppressed, after all, he’s not in charge... The key is that the great talents in the system may be shaken by people’s hearts! '
After all, the secret art of luck is only an auxiliary, but in the context of the imperial court's 500,000 troops attacking, it is very fatal.
"Before the prime minister leads the troops away, let Tang Xun and I guard the city and guard against the enemy's sneak attack... As long as the army is not chaotic, seven thousand soldiers guarding a city will surely last until the prime minister returns! Please help me!" Cao Man The words were extremely sincere, and even gave birth to the will to die.
Du Longzi was stunned, and immediately said: "Don't worry about this... The old man's military spirit is at its peak, and he hasn't wavered at all!"
Taixue.
Taichong and Taihe just finished class, looking at Taiyin: "The teacher said, after this war, our Taishang Dao will have a huge development, at least we will dominate the entire south... At that time, we will be promoted one by one. Entering the center, oops... that's the official of Shang Shu and Lord Shi Lang, can we do it?"
Taiyin rolled her eyes: "It's okay to be too strong, Taihe, you need to lose weight, otherwise how can you have a body?"
During the conversation of the three Taoist boys, it seemed that they had already regarded the whole south as their own, and had no feeling about the half a million imperial army.
Not far away, Fan Jin heard the conversation of these Taoist boys, and suddenly smiled to himself. His originally uneasy mood became much calmer in an instant...
above the city wall.
Tang Xun was not distracted at all, and was putting his heart and soul into rectifying the defense: "Although Lishui County is the most convenient way to go from Jinshi City to Jiangzhou Prefecture, we must also guard against the enemy's detours! Fortunately, we have 7,000 people. The state is also a prefectural city, even if it is besieged by tens of thousands of troops, there is no problem in persisting for several years..."
"General."
At this time, Zhang Tie walked over. This man was indeed just like Tie, with dark skin and a stubborn personality.
If you are an official, you must be hated by others, but Tang Xun likes this strict military style very much.
"explain!"
"General Qi, the 20,000 soldiers have all disarmed and used them as strong men to repair the city wall... In addition, there are 20,000 new recruits in our preaching battalion who are undergoing training. According to the prime minister's intention, they are stationed around the city. In case of accidents!"
Zhang Tie bowed.
"Two... twenty thousand recruits?"
Tang Xun's eyes widened: "Why didn't the general know?"
Long live...
If there were 20,000 new recruits before King Liang, why didn't they pull them out to fight King Wu?
Besides, Beisong's 250,000 troops marched south, and the prime minister only brought 5,000 soldiers! If there are 20,000, why not use it in Lishui County?
"This is the prime minister's secret order to hide the soldiers in Sanwang Mountain in case of accidents!"
Zhang Tie's character gave Tang Xun a headache at this moment, and his answer was so watertight, it was as if he hadn't said it.
"Okay... I won't ask any more, just treat it as the prime minister's Taoism."
Tang Xun covered his forehead, and his eyes brightened immediately.
With 27,000 people, guarding a prefectural city, there is a lot of leeway, and the main force is carried by the prime minister, and only needs to deal with the enemy's partial division.
Not only can the city be impregnable, but maybe a few battles of annihilation can be fought?
...
Three days later.
Song Gongbao led an army and surrounded a village.
"Report! We have already surrounded the village!"
A dark-faced man answered loudly.
He is Song Gongbao's most trusted general - Li Xuanfeng!
He is good at wielding a flower steel axe, has the courage to fight lions and tigers, but loves to drink and make troubles, so he can't let him out alone, but he is loyal and willing to obey Song Gongbao's orders unconditionally, even if it means sending him to death!
"Have you been persuaded to surrender?"
Song Gongbao asked.
"The surrender letter has been sent, but there is no response." Wu Xing bowed.
"Hundreds of people are facing tens of thousands of troops, but the military spirit is still so cold and hard?" Song Gongbao took a breath, and immediately waved: "Attack!"
"kill!"
Waves of ex-bandits wearing Dasong military uniforms flocked to the cottage like a tide.
"put!"
On the copycat arrow tower, there are archers who keep shooting arrows, even if their skills are poor, but with this density, they can be shot casually!
"General...we can gather tens of thousands of troops to attack a small village, and we can take it in about a day." Wu Xing laughed.
After all, after their army went south, they also cultivated for a period of time, and now they are gaining vigor!
But at dusk, Wu Xing's expression turned ugly: "What's going on?"
In his eyes, that small cottage is like a rock, no matter how the waves beat, it still stands proudly!
On the contrary, it was my own side, killing up wave after wave, and then retreating wave after wave like an ebb tide.
"Report! The enemy will not surrender!"
A messenger came over covered in blood and knelt down to report.
"Hateful! Li Xuanfeng!" Song Gongbao threw out an army token.
"Brother? I'm here!" Li Xuanfeng held a hatchet and came out to bow.
"The first battle must be won, and it will be won beautifully... You take my soldiers and charge again!"
"yes!"
Li Xuanfeng took the order to go, and led a group of people to mix with the army, and charged into the village at the head of the pack.
The sound of shouting and killing suddenly rose, and then gradually dissipated.
finally……
Li Xuanfeng came back with a bloody head to report: "Brother... the people in the village are all good men, and they all fought to the death without surrendering, even if their limbs were severed... I'll cut off this fellow's head, It took a lot of effort."
"Brother is also injured?" Song Gongbao saw a small arrow wound on Li Xuanfeng's shoulder, and suddenly seemed to be extremely distressed: "Hurry up and find a medical officer for treatment!"
After Li Xuanfeng went down, Wu Xing came over and sighed: "We took down a stronghold, we killed two hundred and twenty-seven enemies, and our own casualties exceeded a thousand..."
This exchange ratio of five to five made Song Gongbao gasp: "This is a secret and needs to be concealed... Where is the enemy army?"
"The rest of the village, as well as Lishui County, sat back and watched this village fall, without sending a single soldier to rescue it."
The feather fan in Wu Xing's hands trembled a little: "Could it be that this village is full of dead men? If so... This is not the Eighteenth Alliance, but the Eighteen Mountains of Knives, who want to cut our flesh! "
