Chapter 655: Snowstorm and Cold Blade (7)

The periphery has been cleared, and naturally the next step is Dubo Village, the core of the Eastern Conquest Army on the east coast. Unlike other small villages, Dubo Village is more like a city, with more than a thousand Eastern Conquest Army troops stationed inside. The combat effectiveness of soldiers is naturally not comparable to that of small villages that can only station more than a hundred people. When Moyan Duo looked at the village that was several times larger and much higher than before, he felt his head hurt again. , Damn the Eastern Expeditionary Army, can't they just show off their chariots and horses, and fight with clear swords and guns?

After clearing out more than a dozen forts on the periphery, Moyan Duo's men died in battle more than a thousand people. If you include those who were injured and lost combat effectiveness, the number was more than two thousand, which was already one-fifth of the troops under his command. Although He was not a son of his tribe, but Mo Yandu still felt heartbroken.

If we want to conquer Dubo Village, how many men will have to fall here?

Li Yi died. Another Yan general named He Tianju who came to take over Li Yi to assist Moyandu in attacking the city faced Moyandu's interrogation and shook his head in embarrassment, "General Moyanduo, there is a saying in the art of war, five Surround an enemy twice as hard, attack it ten times as much, but even so, you still have to pay a huge price. In sieges, if you are not willing to grind your opponent to death or there are internal problems within the opponent, there will always be lives to pay for it. I know Chen Bin, the garrison general of Dubo Village. Although he is only a subordinate general, he has real abilities. If he had not come from a humble background and had no chance of promotion, he would be qualified to be the commander of an army. With such a person General, you have no other choice but to trade your life with him."

Mo Yandu said angrily: "If I need to exchange my life for my life, what else do I need from you? Just tell me directly, is there any way to reduce the losses of our army and win victory at the minimum cost?"

"No!" He Tianju answered very readily.

"If we need brute force to attack the city, what's the benefit of your coming or not?" Gu Jili snorted coldly.

"I'm here to reduce your casualties as much as possible. General Gujili, if you are in charge. Maybe even if you risk the lives of all the soldiers here, you won't be able to capture Dubo Village. I'll come, or just You need to pay about three times the number of enemies to win Du Bo." Zhou Tianju sneered: "This is where my value lies."

Gu Jili hesitated for a moment, but considering that attacking cities and fortresses was indeed not his strong point, he was speechless by He Tianju, but he had nothing to say, and said with a red face: "Since General He knows this Chen Bin, maybe he can go into the city to persuade him. This Chen Bin surrendered. This man was a prisoner before and cooperated with our clan in farming. He seems to be a cooperative person. "

Zhou Tianju's face changed, "Does General Gu Jili want me to die? You have forgotten how Li Yi died. They hate us more than they hate you. If I go, the only chance to survive is... Just surrender to him immediately and help him defend the city, otherwise you will see my head on the city."

"alright,

Don't argue, you are colleagues, and we are on the verge of a war. We should work together. Mo Yandu stopped the cynicism between the two men and said, "Wait a moment. Your Majesty has sent another 20,000 infantry to General Yan Qi." By then, we will be able to allocate several thousand people here to attack the city, so let these people go first. I cannot allow warriors on horseback to scale the walls. "Recalling the battle in the first few days, Moyan couldn't help but fight a cold war. More than a hundred defenders killed 500 of his own. Fortunately, the other villages were not as strong as that village, otherwise , before he reaches Dubo Village, he will have to show his immunity card. "General He, you have to conduct a good survey of Dubo Village in the past few days. I remember that Li Yi only tested it once and found the village. Weaknesses. "

He Tianju smiled bitterly, "General Moyanduo, no disrespect to General Li Yi, Dubo Village is different. Not to mention the size of the two villages cannot be compared at all. The commanders of the two villages alone, based on their experience, It's a world of difference. Even if there are weaknesses in Dubo Village, they will be well covered up. I don't even need to look at them to know that there is the strongest firepower and the fiercest fighting. That's where the cover of Dubo Village is. Where the door is. Dubo Village is so big, they can effectively hide their weaknesses."

Even so, Mo Yandu still carried the auspiciousness of his bones. He Tianju and the others left the camp and went to Dubo Village to see the target they were about to attack.

"What are those things that stand tall on the city wall?" Mo Yandu asked, pointing to the huge door panels on the city wall.

He Tianju only took one glance and knew the purpose of this thing, "General Moyanduo, that is specially used to deal with the soldiers attacking the city. You can think about it. When our soldiers set up the ladder and climb up, When the door panels with spikes are knocked down, what kind of scene will it be like? "

After thinking about the scene at that time, Mo Yandu couldn't help but shudder, "You Central Plains people have too many conspiracies and tricks. Just by working hard on these things, you will never be able to defeat us on the frontal battlefield. "

He Tianju remained silent, embarrassed. Is he from Yan? No, he has betrayed Dayan. Is he from Donghu? I'm afraid not. Even Mo Yandu, who has always been respectful to him, just said the word you unconsciously. Not to mention Gu Jili, who has always disliked him.

"Wait for the infantry to come. Infantry training is easy, then use them to grind these people to death!" Moyan scratched his head and said. "General He, please think of more solutions in the past few days!"

He Tianju stared at Dubo Village and said, "In the past few days, I would like to ask General Moyandu to order your soldiers to build some snow platforms around Dubo Village. The height should not be lower than Dubo Village, and put crossbows on them." , can shoot up to the city wall, the more these snow platforms, the better. In addition, prepare some thicker and longer bamboos. General Li Yi's method still works. Use these bamboos to shoot stones up, which can destroy the opponent's ice. The wall can also cause difficulties to the defenders. In addition, use the speed of the cavalry to carry bags of snow and start building siege ramps. If several ramps can be built smoothly, then the cavalry can move along. Then ride up these ramps and enter the city."

"Build a ramp?" Mo Yanduo's eyes lit up, "This is indeed a good idea, but the enemy won't just watch us do this, right?"

"Let the cavalry move first and advance slowly from a distance. When the infantry arrives, let them complete the final project. The closer to the city wall, the greater the danger, but as long as a ramp can be built, All the sacrifices are worth it. Once the ramp and the city wall are close, it will be the day when the walled city will be destroyed."

"Those infantry are all slaves and untouchables. It doesn't matter how many they die. There are so many of them anyway. In half a year at most, we can train a new group of people." Gu Jili clapped his hands and smiled and said: "He Tianju, you are worthy of being a Kumamoto. The lieutenant is indeed full of ideas. After listening to these methods of yours, I feel confident in quickly conquering Dubo Village."

He Tianju looked back at the place where they had walked, "Dubo Village will be breached sooner or later. It's just a question of how many casualties there will be. I'm just a little worried. Gao Yuan knew that he was weak on the east coast, but he still chose to attack." He's waiting for us to attack these villages, and he doesn't have many troops under his command. This kind of tactic of giving up life in vain is not something that someone like Gao Yuan would do, right?"

"Are you worried that this is bait?" Mo Yandu understood the meaning of He Tianju's words.

"Yes!" He Tianju nodded and said: "As far as I know, Gao Yuan has a cavalry of several thousand people, and it is obvious that it is impossible for Gao Yuan to put this cavalry in the city as a display. Therefore, Mo Yandu General, you must send more sentry cavalry to make sure this cavalry does not suddenly appear behind us."

"Don't worry! The cavalry who want to attack our Donghu cavalry haven't been born yet!" Mo Yan said with a smile.

Of course, Gao Yuan's cavalry would not be left unused in the city. When Moyanduo began to attack, He Lanyan personally commanded the two cavalry divisions of the First Army and the Second Army, plus the red guards, a total of about five thousand The cavalry left the battlefield far away. They are now a full five hundred miles away from Pioneer City, and they are still staying on the west bank. Now across the river, this cavalry can only become a sandwich pie, and is swallowed by Yan. Qi's army was flanked by Mo Yandu's vanguard cavalry, but Gao Yuan had other considerations about their role. In the early stages of the war, he did not intend to invest this force.

This cavalry will play a decisive role in the final stage of the war.

But this does not mean that Gao Yuan completely turned a blind eye to Dubo Village at this moment. It was not the large-scale eastward expedition army that polished Yan Duo's idea, but several small squads of hundreds of people.

Fu Xiao was lying in the snow pit, and huddled with him was Dong Zhuang, a prisoner of war who signed up with him to join this special brigade. Because of his cooperation on the way from Hejian to Hetao, Dong Zhuang still got the reward. The trust of the Eastern Army, and in this place, the Central Plains people basically have no choice but to rely on the Central Plains people, and this guy's body is really eye-catching.

And Dong Zhuang, after receiving the equipment of the special brigade, was stunned. In addition to a set of soft armor for internal protection, there were also a series of gadgets such as daggers, crossbows, hooks and ropes, all of which were not only A delicate and extremely powerful gadget.

Dong Zhuang was very talented. After getting these things, they mastered all the gadgets within two days, which made Fu Xiao amazed.

Right now, they are lying in a snow pit. The cloaks on their bodies, the hats on their heads, and the gloves on their hands are all white. They lie on the ground. Unless you walk up to them, it is difficult to find them with a pile of snow. What's the difference?

In front of them was an enemy's logistics camp.

"Isn't it better to just set it on fire?" Dong Zhuang looked at Fu Xiao in confusion, "Why do you have to go through so much trouble to get in, just to add some ingredients to their food?"

"You don't understand this!" Fu Xiao laughed sinisterly, "The general we are leading is called Niu Ben. I heard that this guy is from the Overwatch Council. His skills as a sinister are top-notch. This thing, If you add it to food, no matter whether it is a human or a horse, although it will not kill you, it will cause diarrhea. Hey, Dong Zhuang, have you ever seen hundreds of people having diarrhea collectively?" (Unfinished) to be continued,!
