Chapter 1574 suicide by throwing in a well
The Qingzhou army only lasted for three days. On the fourth day, they really couldn't hold on. The Bingzhou army launched continuous attacks, leaving them with no time to sleep all night. Often, as soon as they lay down, they heard an emergency assembly order. It turned out that the Bingzhou army came to attack the city at night. They had to drag their tired bodies to climb up to the city to defend.
But in fact, this was just a harassment plan by the Bingzhou army. It only sent a small group of troops to take advantage of the night, forged momentum and pretend to be a large-scale attack, which made the Qingzhou army unable to sleep at night.
The Qingzhou Army, which had already experienced a hard battle during the day, couldn't sleep well at night. Even if they understood that this was the trouble of the Bingzhou Army, they had to cheer up and deal with it. If the Bingzhou Army made a false come true, it would be a real thing, and it would really be a big deal to send troops to attack. The Qingzhou Army was negligent in preventing it, wouldn't it be bad?
The story of the wolf coming is not just a scare of children, it is applicable to anyone. Of course, Sima Yong would not make such a low-level mistake. Therefore, whenever the Bingzhou Army launched an attack at night, he would always send troops to fight. But in the end, the Bingzhou Army did not really launch an attack, but it made the Qingzhou Army exhausted.
After three consecutive days of struggle, the Qingzhou army was almost exhausted. They traveled back and forth between the city every day, and even they could not count how many trips they had run. Everyone was so tired that their legs were filled with lead, and they couldn't even move their legs.
How can such a state of combat resist the strong attack of the Bingzhou army? During the battle, they were like sleepwalking. Many people even lost their bodies and fell directly from the city.
Because at this time, the stone bomb attack of the Bingzhou Army had almost destroyed all the battlements on the city wall, and the entire city was reduced to a flat ground. Many Qingzhou soldiers thought they could lean on the battlements on the city wall, but they fell down and fell to death on the spot.
People who don’t know the situation will mistakenly think that the Qingzhou soldiers are incompetent and will jump into the city to commit suicide. In fact, they are just dizzy and lost, and they accidentally fell down, but eventually they evolved into their pessimism and disappointment about the battle situation and seeking short-sightedness.
Deng Ai also always pays attention to the status of the Qingzhou Army. Deng Ai uses fatigue tactics intent to use this method to drag down the Qingzhou Army. Although Sima Yong is the son of Sima Fu and has a very high reputation, he has not fought any battles and is still much worse in terms of combat experience. Deng Ai's fighting style is a bit apathetic and difficult to reach the elegant hall, but it is very suitable for Sima Yong, who has only read the military strategy and has little experience in the battlefield.
In the past three days, the Bingzhou Army launched an nuisance attack almost every at least an hour. The scale was large and small, the offensive was strong and weak, the real and true, the true and false, which made Sima Yong unable to understand at all, but he had to deal with it with it with all his strength, which was exactly what Deng Ai thought.
At the same time, the Bingzhou army was fully rested and every time they went to battle, they were small troops. Most of the Bingzhou army waited for work and maintained strong physical strength and energy. They could launch a comprehensive general attack with just a command from Deng Ai.
When Deng Ai saw that the Qingzhou army on the city was exhausted, he thought that the time for the general attack was ripe, so he sent an order to launch a comprehensive general attack before he could.
The afternoon is the time of Wei, and this period is almost the most likely time for people to get sleepy. At this time, the general attack is expected to be still confused. The Bingzhou army can take advantage of the situation and take down Linzi City in one fell swoop.
Within the first two hours of the general attack, Deng Ai deliberately lowered the frequency of the Bingzhou army's attack, making the Qingzhou army mistakenly believe that the Bingzhou army's offensive slowed down and it was unsustainable. Many Qingzhou soldiers were so tired that they lay directly under the city wall and slept loudly. I am afraid that even the sound of war drums in their ears would not necessarily wake them up.
The Bingzhou Army ended the attack in a routine manner. It thought it would be a quiet and boring stage of attack, but suddenly, the Bingzhou Army was like a flood breaking through the dam, with a tsunami and a rushing momentum that was overwhelming and overwhelming, surging towards Linzi City.
Countless ladders were built up, and the walls of the city wall were densely laid. At this time, the upper half of Linzi City had been almost destroyed by a catapult. From a distance, Linzi City seemed to be half shorter than before, which made the ladders raised by the Bingzhou Army much higher than the top of the city.
Countless Bingzhou troops were holding shields and holding ring-headed swords, climbing up hard. The huge city wall was instantly flooded by the crowd of Bingzhou troops.
The Qingzhou army, who woke up from her dream, began to beat drums to warn, but although the exhausted Qingzhou soldiers heard the order to assemble, they were slow to move and could not keep up with the pace of combat. When the first wave of Bingzhou troops attacked the city, many Qingzhou soldiers did not even have time to climb up the city wall.
In this way, a gap was opened on the head of Linzi City. As more and more Bingzhou troops rushed to the head of the city, the loss of Linzi City had become inevitable, and no one could stop it.
When the city was broken, Sima Yong was resting in the mansion. The struggle day and night also made Sima Yong exhausted. While the Bingzhou Army was not in a strong attack, Sima Yong was about to take a nap. Otherwise, if he would continue like this, he would have tormented himself to death before the Bingzhou Army captured the city.
But when Sima Yong had just fallen asleep, he heard a burst of shouts coming from the city wall. The sound was as loud as thunder and the drums were loud. Sima Yong was awakened again. Just when he was about to send someone to check the situation, he heard the news that the city gate was lost.
Sima Yong was stunned when he heard this. Although the Bingzhou army's siege in the past few days brought endless pressure to them, Sima Yong felt that he could resist it. After all, there were still tens of thousands of troops in the city. Even if the city wall was broken, at least there were still people to pile up. As long as you grit your teeth and hold on for a while, it should be better.
But unexpectedly, after just taking a nap, Linzi City was lost. Sima Yong was completely panicked. The city wall was his only reliance. Once the city wall was broken, the Bingzhou army would enter the city with great force and no force could resist.
It's over, everything is over. At this moment, there is already a mess in Linzi City, with endless shouts of killing. You can hear the sudden sound of horse hooves flying towards this side. Sima Yong didn't want to be a prisoner or be a prisoner under Cao Liang. He looked at the well in the middle of the courtyard and jumped down without hesitation.
