Turbulent Times Chapter 1437: Nie Xiaoyu is here
Wang Junlin brought Nie Xiaoyu and two hundred soldiers from Snake Island to the Far East Army Camp in Boling City.
In the camp of the Chinese army, Wang Junlin met with Yuchi Jingde, the leader of the Tiger Camp, Wang Bodang, the leader of the Xiongwu Camp, and Zhang Tiangang, the captain of the Special Forces, and began to discuss intensely.
The three generals saw that Wang Junlin's expression was as usual, his tone was gentle, and he didn't intend to blame him, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the other two counties in Hebei have been captured, the officials carefully selected by Du Ruhui and Liu Ziming have also arrived at these two counties. The county began to do things after the war, but Boling County was not only unable to take it for a long time, but now the number of reinforcements from the powerful clans continued to increase, and there were already 140,000 people inside and outside the city.
Although the strength of the enemy is half that of the opponent, the ratio of the strength of the other two counties, the Whirlwind Battalion led by Luo Shixin and the Iron Spear Battalion led by Lu Han, is also the same.
So Yuchi Jingde, Wang Bodang, and Zhang Tiangang were apprehensive at first, worried that Wang Junlin would blame them, but after they voluntarily knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty, Wang Junlin not only did not blame them at all, but even lightly said a few words Then the matter was exposed.
After listening to the three people's brief description of the current situation in the siege of Boling County, Wang Junlin was not too worried, and said inexplicably: "Li Jing, the defender of the city, is very skilled in military strategy. They are masters in both field battles and city defense. The city has enough troops, food and grass, and the Cui family is not stingy with rewards, so the morale of the defenders is very good. The most important thing is that the enemy has obviously had a deep understanding of our gunpowder weapons. Research, and the countermeasures are quite effective.”
When they heard this, they all nodded their heads in agreement.
Wang Junlin glanced at the crowd, smiled slightly, and said: "However, you don't have to worry, I have already figured out how to break the city, and I can break the city in three days at the latest."
Hearing the words, everyone cheered up. They are all experts with rich battle experience and leading the battle. They have lost a lot these days.
Facing the watertight defense of Boling County City, if they have tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under their command, and they have enough time, after a month or two they still have the confidence to break through Boling County City. There are many, but the problem is that this does not meet the combat requirements of the Far East Army, and now the enemy army is inside and outside the city.
Twice as much, this is the Far East Army. If it is replaced by other troops, it will either be defeated or retreat.
So, in this case, if others say such big words, they will definitely sneer. But his prince is synonymous with miracles.
Over the years, the miracles created by Wang Junlin were all considered impossible by the world beforehand. Every amazing deed is all done under impossible circumstances to surprise the whole world.
So, Wang Junlin said that the city would be broken in three days at the latest. Although the three were surprised, they couldn't help but disbelieve it.
Thinking like this, the three of them were so curious about Wang Junlin's method of breaking the city that they were dying, but Wang Junlin didn't say anything for a while, and the three of them couldn't ask, so they could only look at Wang Junlin eagerly and waited. He said the way to break the city.
Wang Junlin saw the three looks in his eyes, and couldn't help thinking that with his current status and prestige in the hearts of the world, he could easily convince almost everyone without doing anything at all. That's the benefit of status and fame.
When Wang Junlin thought of this, his expression became serious, and everyone's hearts trembled. Then Wang Junlin said: "Starting tomorrow, the defenders in the east city will withdraw and concentrate on attacking three sides."
"Open one side?"
"That's right, let's go around the city three times, and the water will not get through. Are you going to force the defenders to resist to the death? If you open the city, no matter if it's the defenders or the people in the city, if they have a glimmer of life, they will never be like this again." Such resoluteness, even if they know it is a trick, their belief in death will be shaken. In addition, the enemy has brought a lot of reinforcements, and they will find a way to let some of the troops enter the city. We must create opportunities for some of the opponent's reinforcements to enter the city reasonably. And these people entering the city will be the key to breaking the city."
The three of them looked at each other, with some guesses in their hearts, but more doubts.
"My lord, what shall we do next?" Wang Bodang hesitated for a moment and asked respectfully.
Wang Junlin glanced at the three of them, and said, "From now on, you just follow my orders."
The three of them dared not disobey, and respectfully said yes without hesitation.

………
On the second day, the Far Eastern Army suspended the siege and let go of the west
City, gather the army, and redeploy the camp.
Then, Wang Junlin ordered them to rely on long-range attack weapons such as bed crossbows and catapults to suppress the firepower at the top of the city, and the armies on three sides began to rebuild the camp.
Construction started in front of the Far East Barracks, and Nie Xiaoyu personally presided over it.
A camp is not just a place to rest and sleep. A well-designed camp can not only prevent enemy attacks, but can even serve as a barrier to counterattack and defend when the attack fails. A well-built fortification system is difficult to break through , just like the not very precipitous Boling County City in front of him, but it has a strong defense like a copper wall and an iron wall.
It's just that this move made Yuchi Jingde, Wang Bodang, and Zhang Tiangang feel puzzled. Because if they had made long-term preparations to attack the city, then naturally it would not be wrong to reinforce the camp, but Wang Junlin clearly told them last night that they would break the city within three days... Why?
But doubts are doubts, the three of them naturally dare not disobey Wang Junlin's order, not to mention that Nie Xiaoyu is in charge of the specific deployment. He is Nie Xiaoyu's short-term training student, and he knows the horror, mystery, and weirdness of this beautiful teacher.
The first trench with a width of nearly five feet, the second and third trenches with a width of three feet. There are sharpened wooden stakes slanted outside.
An archery tower was built every twenty-five steps on the berm, and the first two trenches were cut down by people The relevant experts of the government pointed out that there are many killing organs scattered all over the place, and they talked about the attack at night. Even if it is in broad daylight, it will not take a day's effort to eradicate these obstacles under the enemy's arrow rain, unless you enter and exit through the passageway with a width of four feet. Otherwise, the small raiding army will be completely useless. Only a few archers need to be guarded, and the soldiers in the camp can rest in peace.
Nie Xiaoyu also ordered the Far Eastern Army to go to the upper reaches of the moat to cut off the water source and divert the water to flow elsewhere. Although there is running water in the city, once the water in the moat with a width of fifteen feet and a depth of more than two feet dries up and fills in some sections of the river, all kinds of water will be lost. The giant siege equipment can be directly mounted on the city wall, and at the same time, the water in the moat is gone, and it is easy to dig tunnels.
