The only problem with Pinghu Camp is to deal with these 8,000 prisoners of war in this way.

Having said that, in the battle of Baisha Tsui, the Pinghu Camp was indeed fighting fiercely. A team that had never fought in actual combat was able to wipe out the number of enemy troops that were on par with the Pinghu Camp in one fell swoop in one fell swoop. The battle was quite beautiful, and 8,000 prisoners of war were captured alive.

Under ordinary circumstances, the number of enemy troops captured and the number of enemy troops killed and injured is roughly equal. In other words, it is already a very good record to be able to capture about half of the enemy troops on the battlefield.

Unexpectedly, this ambush battle in Pinghu Camp could capture more than 80% of the Shu army. Such a high proportion of prisoners of war is rare.

This result also led to the Pinghu Camp's inability to withdraw from the battlefield in time, and so many prisoners of war became a burden.

Wang Jun immediately thought of a way to transport all the 8,000 prisoners of war to Jiangling. In this way, Pinghu Camp would have no worries or tricky things and could devote himself to the battle of Xiling City.

So Wang Jun sent warships over overnight to pick up prisoners of war from the Shu army, completely freeing Pinghu Camp.

However, it takes some time to transport prisoners of war. Pinghu Camp only has the opportunity to go to Xiling City after sending all the prisoners of war away. The current Wei army's siege operation still depends on Pingjiang Camp.

During the daytime siege, Pingjiang Camp's performance was already outstanding enough. For the first actual battle of Pingjiang Camp, the first battle was a tough tough bone, and it was also a test for them.

Although Pingjiang Camp failed to take Xiling City, Wang Jun was obviously not in a hurry. The siege battle was not easy to fight, and it was not realistic to expect Pingjiang Camp to take Xiling City in only half a day.

But Wang Jun was full of confidence in the subsequent attack. Pingjiang Camp performed well and was not bad. But the one that really posed a threat to the Shu army was the stone-catted battleship.

The catapult car used in the catapult battleship is not the catapult car commonly used by the Wei army infantry, but a chain catapult car with high attack frequency and small bomb load. Usually such catapult car has limited destructive power to the city wall. Although the Wei army's infantry is equipped, it is rarely used in actual combat, especially in siege operations.

So this time, Wang Jun was determined to use the stone-cattered battleship to undertake the siege mission. In fact, Wang Jun was not very confident. When the navy was fighting, the stone-cattered battleship shone brightly and made great contributions to the Wei Navy defeating the Wu Navy.

But naval forces fighting and siege fighting are completely different. When naval forces fight, the opponent faced by the castle car is the Wu army warship. The small-number stone bomb can also produce devastating effects, not to mention that battleships can also use more devastating weapons - fierce oil fire bombs.

However, when fighting in the siege, the battleships faced an extremely strong city wall. At this time, the small number one stone bomb was almost powerless to destroy the defense system of the city wall. It was completely impossible for the Wei army to rely on a catapult to directly smash the city wall of Xiling City.

Therefore, in this siege battle, Cao Liang had long determined the attack method based on the attack of the navy and marines and the attack of the battleships as the auxiliary force. This time, the catapult cart was used as an auxiliary force to launch an attack.

However, even if it is assisted, the catapult will become the key factor in whether the Wei army can take Xiling this time. After all, simply relying on the Pingjiang Camp to use the Ant Support to attack the city is not possible in a short time.

Ant Attack City can be said to be the most powerful siege among various siege methods. Without the strength of the defenders, it is impossible to achieve Ant Attack City without the strength of several times the defense.

Under ordinary circumstances, ants siege is often an attack method that only when the siege party occupies obvious forces, it will launch an attack method. It uses the human sea tactics, regardless of the cost of casualties, and it must be able to overwhelm the defending army in terms of momentum, so that it will have the opportunity to attack the city and capture the village.

This time, the Wei army could mobilize only 20,000 naval and marines, among which Pinghu Camp had to block Ning Sui's reinforcements, so that the Shu army's reinforcements could not have the chance to return to Xiling.

This is crucial. If Ning Sui's reserve team returns to Xiling, then Xiling's defensive forces will inevitably be greatly enhanced. For the Wei army, will the siege of the city be greatly increased? Therefore, this tactic commonly used by the Wei army to siege the city and attack the aid must be continued to be carried forward.

Siege the city and attack aid seem to be an ordinary method, but it can have a great impact on the psychology of the Xiling defenders. When the Wei army launches a fierce attack on Xiling City, the defenders will find it difficult to compete with each other, so they will naturally place all their hopes on the reinforcements.

If reinforcements can arrive at Xiling in time, not only can Xiling City double its defensive force by leveling and open space, but it will also be a great improvement and encouragement to the morale of the entire Xiling City defenders, and will strengthen their defensive will.

On the other hand, if reinforcements are blocked and cannot arrive in Xiling for rescue, then it will be a heavy blow to the Xiling defenders. If they cannot wait for reinforcements, the morale of the defenders will become sluggish. Faced with the fierce attack of the Wei army, they will be a little helpless when fighting.

Therefore, for the Wei army, blocking aid is a major event. Even if the troops are tight, some of them must be drawn to participate in the battle against aid.

The Pinghu Camp was arranged to Baishazui to block Ningsui, and the only one who stayed in Xiling to attack the city was left, with more than 10,000 people, which was exactly the same as the number of troops guarding Xiling by the Shu army.

When the troops of both sides are equal, the difficulty of siege is naturally infinite. Under ordinary circumstances, the Wei army has almost no hope of taking Xiling City.

But the Wei army also has a killer weapon, which is the chain of stone casting cars. Although the stone bombs thrown by the chain of stone casting cars cannot collapse the city wall, it can cause a fatal blow to the city defense facilities and the defending army, especially the fierce oil fire bombs, which will become a secret weapon for the Wei army to attack Xiling this time.

In order to achieve the goal of conquering Xiling, the Wei army had made detailed arrangements and arrangements before launching the attack, and prepared a large number of fierce oil fire bombs and stone bombs. The number of fierce oil fire bombs alone reached twice the number of water battle in Pengze Lake, which shows how much Cao Liang attaches importance to the battle in Xiling.

In actual combat, the series of catapults did live up to expectations. Wang Jun adopted a flexible and changeable attack tactic, which made the Shu army unable to find the north. Not only did it lose a lot of troops, but the Shu army was also exhausted for most of the day. The city defense of the entire Xiling City also became dangerous and the situation was not optimistic.
