Chapter 1335 Not a nightmare is better than a nightmare

After Wang Jun arrived at the south gate of Yecheng, he did not rush to launch an attack, but led his army to hide about a mile away from the city.

However, at this time, Changshui Camp was ready to attack the city, and all the ladders and crossbows used for siege were ready to stop. Even Wang Jun had already thought about the way to wading through the moat.

The moat in Yecheng is both wide and deep, filled with water, and is even dozens of feet wide. If the Bingzhou Army uses landfill, it will definitely not work in a short time. As soon as a large-scale river-filling operation is launched, the defenders on the city will inevitably notice it, and the sneak attack will fail.

After thinking about it, Wang Jun thought about it and thought of a good idea. He sent some soldiers with good water quality to jump into the moat and carry the ladder on his shoulders. Then the soldiers who siege the city could step through these ladders across the moat. One ladder was not long enough, and several ladders could be connected, similar to building a pontoon bridge on the river surface, but the base of this pontoon bridge was the shoulders of a person.

Soldiers who jump into the river will inevitably bear a huge amount of weight. After all, all the troops must pass through their shoulders. Wang Jun not only has to choose good water properties, but also very strong soldiers, so that this human-powered pontoon bridge can have endurance.

However, even if everything is ready, Changshui Camp still needs to wait. After waiting for the attack from the Right Guard Camp to attract the attention of most of the defenders, they will launch an attack.

Fortunately, the dark night provided them with great cover, allowing Changshui Camp to approach only about one mile from Yecheng, and it was not easy to be discovered by the defenders. The entire army remained silent and quietly waited for news to come from the north.

Since Liu Jing was a feint attack, he would definitely not have to hide his tracks like Changshui Camp, but instead launched an attack in a bright and bright manner.

Faced with the moat of the same width, Liu Jing adopted a simpler and more direct approach. Before the army launched an attack, Liu Jing sent dozens of soldiers from Bingzhou Army to swim quietly across the moat.

The moat in Yecheng is drawn from the water of the Zhang River, surrounding Yecheng, but flowing into the Zhang River. Compared with the moat in ordinary cities, the moat in Yecheng is still water, and the moat in Yecheng is more rapid. However, for these dozens of swimming experts who are familiar with water, these moats that are dozens of feet wide are not too big, and they quickly climbed to the other side.

The target of these soldiers' sneak attack was the suspension bridge at the city gate. During the day, Sima soldiers came to guard the suspension bridge near the suspension bridge, but at night, all the soldiers at the city gate would retreat to the city, and the suspension bridge would become unattended.

If the two sides were fighting, the defending party would take the lead in demolishing or destroying the suspension bridge to prevent it from being used by the enemy. However, the defending army did not expect that Bingzhou would come to attack the city, so they had no chance to demolish the suspension bridge in advance.

Liu Jing had no time to fill the river, nor did he choose the same method as Wang Jun. Instead, he directly grabbed the suspension bridge and made it a tool for the Bingzhou Army.

Liu Jing was responsible for a feint attack, so he was not worried that the Sima army would be discovered in advance. Moreover, for Liu Jing, the more the noise he made, the more Sima army would be able to come to the north city gate to pave a way for the attack of Changshui Camp.

Sure enough, when the ropes of the suspension bridge were cut off and the suspension bridge fell down, the loud noise woke the defenders on the top of the city.

"There is an enemy attack!" The shouts of shouts on the top of the city were one after another, and many Sima soldiers who were still sleeping were awakened. They entered the battle position in panic. In the darkness, they couldn't figure out how many enemy troops were coming, and the city was in chaos.

Originally, after the old Jizhou army was transferred, the defense of Yecheng was completely undertaken by the new army. Although these new army had been trained for more than two years, for an army that had only been trained but had no practical experience, it was impossible to not panic once the real battle came.

Especially now that the third update has just passed, these soldiers were sleeping soundly, but suddenly the war came to them. Only when there was no panic would there be ghosts.

Sima Yichang also received the news of the enemy's attack at the first time. When he heard the news, Sima Yichang was not awake. He felt like he had a nightmare. His subordinates repeatedly urged him, and Sima Yichang finally came to his senses. It turned out that this was not a nightmare!

But being attacked by the enemy is not a nightmare, but better than a nightmare. Sima Yi didn't have to think about it anymore, and quickly put on his armor and rushed to the north city gate.

At this time, the Right Guard Camp had already arrived at the city of Yecheng through the suspension bridge and launched an attack. Ladders were erected, and the Bingzhou army was climbing hard and fighting fiercely with the defending army.

The arrival of Sima Yiqiang greatly encouraged Sima's army, and the chaotic scene finally improved. Sima Yiqiang quickly ordered all the troops guarding the city to climb the city and resolutely defeat the Bingzhou army that was siegeing the city.

Where did such a Bingzhou army emerge? Sima Yiqiang was puzzled. Logically speaking, the main force of the Bingzhou army was basically in the northern part of Jizhou, confronting Sima's army, and suddenly went south to attack Yecheng four or five hundred miles away. The speed was inexplicably astonishing.

If Sima Yichang arrived in Yecheng, he might not have felt that it was too strange. After all, the cavalry was fighting in a large and fast manner, so it would not be surprising that they raided Yecheng.

But from the current situation, the Bingzhou army sieges are clearly infantry units, and the cavalry units are not equipped with siege equipment and do not have the ability to siege cities. At present, the Bingzhou army is also well-known, with all the equipment for siege cities. There is no doubt that this siege army is one of the six major Bingzhou camps.

But how did this Bingzhou army cross a vast area of ​​500 miles without being discovered? Sima Yichang really couldn't know.

A sudden light flashed in his mind, and the army suddenly emerged. Could it be that they came from Shangdang and the path they were taking was Yukouxing?

However, there was a defender of the Jizhou Army in the Fukou area. They occupied the risk of mountain danger. It was impossible for the Bingzhou Army to break through such a dangerous camp so quietly.

Sima Yizheng asked the troops stationed in Fukou to report on the situation of Fukou in three days. Tomorrow is the third day, and until now there is no news from Fukou.

No information is not a good phenomenon. It is very likely that this camp has been conquered by the Bingzhou army, so the Bingzhou army appeared under the city of Yecheng.
