Chapter 46 Suppressing the rebellion

PS: The second update is here. I hope you will support me and give me some red tickets and favorites~~~~~~Thank you~~~~~~~

Fusu led 20,000 troops along the way, and finally arrived at Yangzhou County. Along the way, the army was not attacked by any small groups of enemies, and arrived at the destination safely. However, Fusu felt in his heart

There is no bottom line. After all, this is the first time that he has led troops to attack on his own initiative. Looking at the fighting spirit of the soldiers behind him, Fusu feels that the burden on his shoulders is very heavy. He not only has to quell this rebellion, but also to fight against the enemy.

Put down the rebellion with minimal casualties on one's own side.

Zhou Xing followed him. Seeing his nervous expression, he guessed what he was thinking, so he comforted him: "Prince, don't worry, we are all elite this time. They can all be equal to ten. We will be able to successfully defeat those traitors."

The army destroyed them."

Fusu nodded to him and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine. Tell the army to move quickly and set up camp outside Yangwuwu before dark." After receiving the order, the leading soldiers hurriedly conveyed the order.

, the speed of the army immediately increased. Because they had successfully taken down Beidi County and defended Shang County in the front, the soldiers were quite convinced of Fusu's command, and their morale was rare and high.

Sure enough, the whole army arrived at Wuli in Liyang before dark. Fusu, Zhou, and Zhang decided to find an open place with a mountain to camp. The mountain behind was just a small hill, but this was enough for them.

The army has something to rely on.

After settling down, Fusu ordered a cavalryman to shoot a letter of persuasion to surrender into the city through powerful arrows. After all, it was better not to fight if possible.

As soon as the arrow entered this small town, someone took it and delivered it to Ji Guiming. After reading the letter, Ji Guiming was a little worried. He handed the letter to a middle-aged man and said: "I didn't expect Fusu to be so...

I will lead the troops in person soon, does Mr. Zhao have any plans to retreat from the enemy?"

This Mr. Zhao is the brother of Zhao Hu who died in the battle in Shangjun City. His name is Zhao Biao. Now he doesn't know the situation in Shangjun. He thought that everything was as Zhao Heng and himself expected. He successfully transferred the tiger away from the mountain. He confidently

Yi smiled and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry. As long as you hold on, the Qin soldiers will retreat in a few days. When the time comes, we will send troops to cover up the enemy, and we will definitely win a complete victory."

After hearing Zhao Biao's words, Ji Guiming became more confident, so he ordered: "The whole army just needs to hold on and don't go out to fight the Qin soldiers."

"It seems that this puppet is really on the right side." Seeing Ji Guiming being so obedient, Zhao Biao couldn't help but feel proud. In fact, no one knows whether Ji Guiming is a descendant of the royal family of the Yan Kingdom, but now that he is

, then he naturally became the nominal leader of this rebel army composed of hard laborers in the north.

Fusu led Jin to wait outside Yangzhou City for two days, but found no intention of surrender by the other party. He knew that the other party was determined to fight with him, so he issued an order to attack the city.

The prepared ladders began to be moved to the front of the formation. Fusu personally boarded the chariot, pointed the long sword in his hand at the top of Yangzhou City, and shouted loudly: "All the soldiers in the army listen to the order, the front army attacks

Frontally, attack both sides of the city wall from the left and right wings, attack!"

The five thousand men and horses in front rushed forward like a whirlwind, while the soldiers and horses on the left and right also circled around the weakly defended sides of the city wall. This strategy was also based on Fusu's consideration that his own men and horses were not more than others, and he could not fight with the enemy.

I came up with it after a head-on confrontation. If all the troops were mobilized for a frontal attack, the purpose of the enemy's defense would be clear. However, now a three-sided attack prevents the enemy's preparations on the city from being fully utilized for a while.

But compared to the defenders, the losses suffered by the attackers were obvious. They were condescending and kept pounding stones down. The first wave of attacks was quickly repulsed. Then Fusu discovered that

He realized that the enemy had a big weakness, that is, the opponent had very few bows and crossbows. After learning this, Fusu immediately changed his strategy. He ordered the front army to continue attacking with great momentum, attracting a large amount of the opponent's defensive force, and leaving

The men on both wings came back to get their crossbows. They wanted to use their crossbows on both sides to consume the opponent's defenders from a long distance.

This strategy was successful at first. The frontal attack not only attracted the heavy defensive weapons such as stone stones, but also unexpectedly attracted the attention of the enemy's few archers, which allowed the people on both wings to attack from a long distance.

He easily and safely shot and killed dozens of enemies defending the city.

Seeing that the strategy on both wings was successful, Fusu immediately ordered the troops on the left to rush to the right. After the two sides merged, they launched a fierce offensive on the right side of the city wall, and the ladder that was originally on the front was also quickly transported to the right side.

Seeing that the right side of the city wall was about to be captured, the enemy suddenly woke up. They were also very fast. They immediately brought countless rocks to smash down. Reinforcements also rushed to prevent Fusu's army from ascending the city.

The bows and crossbows were also adjusted to this side. After two hours of bloody fighting, they still could not capture the not-too-high city wall.

Fusu looked at the tragic battlefield and the opponent's prepared posture. He knew that his goal of capturing Yangzhou in one go would not be achieved, so he withdrew his troops. Seeing that Fusu would no longer attack, Fusu's defenders also

After throwing down some rocks, he stopped attacking.

At this time, the setting sun was shining on the not-too-high city wall of Yangzhou City, and the blood looked even more tragic under the blood-red sunlight.

"How many men and horses did we lose today?" Fusu asked his surroundings as soon as he returned to the camp.

"Only 3,500 of the 5,000 men from the former army returned, and nearly half a man was lost on the left and right wings," said a wartime secretary.

"Hey, I didn't expect that we lost more than four thousand people in just one battle." Fusu sighed.

At this time Zhou Xing walked in. Today's attack on the right was led by him. Now his armor was covered with dust and blood: "Prince, what should we do next? It seems that although the weapons in this city are backward,

Because they are all hard workers building the Great Wall, they are not short of these huge stones. If we continue to attack like this, our army will suffer too many losses."

"That's right, the prince seems to have no other ideas." Zhang Wu happened to walk in and heard Zhou Xing's words.

"I don't know that such an attack would cause too serious casualties to our army. But the problem is that the enemy is huddled in the city, and our army does not have many more people than the enemy. How can we quickly capture the city?"

"Now it would be great if someone could open the city gate for us like the last time we captured Beidi County." Zhang Wu thought of the success of the last surprise attack on Beidi County.

Fusu laughed when he heard this: "Do you think every city can be conquered so easily?" Because of Zhang Wu's words, the dull atmosphere that had been caused by the inability to conquer the city improved a lot.

Zhou Xing continued: "If they are willing to send troops to fight with us, we are sure to defeat them." What he said is also true. With the advanced weapons of the Fusu Army and the combat effectiveness of the soldiers, these soldiers have just become soldiers.

The hard labor is obviously no match for them.

"Yes, if we can lure them out, we can eliminate them, thus emptying the power to defend the city. Then it will be easy for us to capture the city." Fusu also nodded, "But the key is how to lure them out."

Fusu began to walk in the camp: "It seems that we still need to use some tricks."

Early the next morning, Ji Guiming went to the top of the city to inspect, but he saw that Fusu's army was beginning to show some intention of retreating. He looked at Zhao Biao and asked: "Mr. Zhao, do you think...?"

Zhao Biao looked at the Fusu army who was about to retreat, but there were still a few small troops staying behind and said: "It seems that Fusu also understands the art of war. He knows that when he retreats, he will be chased by our army from behind, so he ordered

People are cut off from the queen."

"Then sir, do you think we should go out of the city to pursue him?"

"Chai, now is the time to teach Fusu a big lesson!" Zhao Biao waved his hand, and a messenger came over: "Pass the order, only two thousand men and horses are left in the city to guard, and everyone else will attack.

I will destroy Fusu in one battle."

"Boom!" As the city gate opened, the rebels in the city rushed out with weapons of various types. In their eyes, the army in front of them was their armor, weapons, horses and food. How could they not

What about the excitement?

Seeing the enemy rushing out of the city, Fusu chuckled: "I told you that they would definitely come out of the city to attack when our army retreated."

"Prince, why are you doing this?" Zhang Wu still couldn't figure it out.

"I have long said that the Zhao people are causing trouble in this uprising. They will definitely be taken down by them if they come to the county. Now our retreat has just confirmed their inference. They think I am rushing back to the army to get it."

Shangjun, that's why they want to hunt us down." A sneer appeared on Fusu's lips, "The front army will turn into the rear army, let me attack them head-on, it is best to wipe out all the enemies."

After all, the Fusu Army was a well-trained force. After receiving the order, they turned their guns and faced the enemy at an extremely fast speed before the enemy was even ten feet in front of them.

Once it was a head-on battle, the combat effectiveness of the Fusu Army was fully demonstrated. It only took one round of charging to completely break down the enemy's formation, and what followed became a one-sided massacre. Because as soon as the formation was broken down, coupled with the discovery

The enemy was actually well prepared, and those hard laborers who wanted to take advantage simply ran back. No matter how loud the generals in the army broke their throats, they could not organize a decent counterattack.

At this time, the Fusu Army became the pursuers. The soldiers carried weapons and chased the enemies who turned around and ran wildly. The corpses of the fallen rebels were scattered along the way. They ran all the way to the foot of Yangzhou City, but

Finding that the city gate had been closed, they all shouted for the people above to open the door, but the city defenders did not dare to open the door to let them in, because they were followed closely by the wolf-like and tiger-like Fusu army.
