Chapter 271 Arrangement

In this exam, Luo Ji may have just asked casually, but Zhou Yi suddenly became serious, and after thinking for a while, he slowly said, "Leader, this subordinate thinks that this siege battle, the other party's goal should be There are two."

"Continue." Luo Ji had a noncommittal expression on his face.

In this regard, Zhou Yi is still quite calm, after all, he is still a centurion and a person who has been on the battlefield, so there is still some calmness, "The first purpose should be to test the deployment and deployment of Songhe City's troops. The strength of the defending forces, Songhe City is an important hub connecting the Iron Triangle, if it can be directly attacked, it is naturally the best, if it cannot be attacked, confirming the information first is also conducive to the subsequent siege battle."

Having said this, Zhou Yi took a breath and spoke again, "The second purpose should be to prevent us from easily capturing Songshan City. After the adjustment, he can directly send troops to Shangyuan City. This is obviously not what Zhou Dongnan wants to see. Therefore, the purpose of his doing this is to tell us that his army is already overwhelmed. If we dare to send troops to attack Songshan City , that Songhe City will inevitably be captured by him, and he wants to contain us in this way."

After speaking, Zhou Yi's gaze fell on Luo Ji's face, as if seeking approval, or something else...

And Luo Ji, who felt the sight, tilted his head, "What else?"

"Anything else?" Zhou Yi's expression was stunned for a moment, but Luo Ji's expression and tone made him clearly realize that his thinking was not thorough enough, and Zhou Yi couldn't help but fall into thought again when he thought of this.

Seeing this, Luo Ji chuckled lightly, then let him think slowly, not because Zhou Yi was stupid, but because he hadn't broken away from his previous identity and situation.

There is an old saying, if you are not in your position, do not seek your government, Zhou Yi was originally a small soldier, and the highest military rank has been promoted to a centurion. However, no matter whether it is a small soldier or a centurion, according to his original situation , There is no room for him to intervene in matters such as marching, fighting, and tactical layout. Over time, naturally, he will not think about these things anymore.

What Luo Ji is doing now is to ask him to think about it. Those who are in the middle of a war and sitting in command positions need to look at the overall situation. However, Zhou Yi's analysis just now is limited to the current situation in front of him. War, Luo Ji wanted him to think further.

Zhou Yi's talent was there. Under the guidance of Luo Ji, he thought about it for a while, and the whole person quickly responded, "Songshan City? Is Zhou Dongnan moving troops to Songshan City?!"

"Nine times out of ten." Luo Ji replied calmly.

"But, but it will take at least five days, and if it is a large-scale deployment, it will probably take longer!"

"So didn't he send troops to buy time for Songshan City? And the battle is not small..." As he spoke, Luo Ji narrowed his eyes and saw two towering towers in the enemy's army in the distance. The tower appeared in their sight.

Zhou Yi was shocked when he saw this scene, "That is, the siege tower!?"

Also as siege equipment, siege towers are much more expensive than siege vehicles, and are more time-consuming and labor-intensive to manufacture. The height of each siege tower needs to be basically the same as the city wall, and then a large number of soldiers will hide there. Inside the tower, when the soldiers outside push the siege tower to the front of the enemy city wall, the soldiers hiding in the tower will rush out and capture the city wall in one breath.

At the same time, the two siege towers were obviously one of Zhou Dongdong's trump cards, and this time, in order to frighten Luo Ji, they took them out directly.

And it doesn't stop there. Taking a closer look, Luo Ji also found that there was also a special unit carrying cloud ladders, the kind of soldiers who rushed outside the city walls and then built ladders to climb up. The advantages of cloud ladders are obviously that Inexpensive, it is one of the devices that win by quantity. After all, a large-scale device like a siege tower can know how expensive it is just by looking at it.

I have to say that, after going back and forth, the threat index of the opponent's siege troops really went up all the way. Luo Ji, who was standing on the wall, felt a lot of pressure, and at the same time, he felt the old bronze rank player. heritage.

"Did you see this battle? Zhou Dongnan didn't plan to give me the spare energy to attack Songshan City, let alone a mountain city with rugged terrain and difficult to walk. In such a terrain, whether the siege equipment can be pushed up is a problem. The problem, in other words, if you want to capture Songshan Castle, maybe you can only rely on the strength to fight."

"Under this premise, if the other party is dedicated to defending the city wall and we want to attack it, it is estimated that the strength of the troops stationed in Dongjing City is very high, not to mention that the troops of Dongjing City can't be fully transferred, and we have to stay. Five hundred troops should be stationed in the city. In this case, unless I transfer the troops of Songhe City, but you have seen the situation here in Songhe City. , you should know what it means, right?"

Zhou Yi certainly knew what that meant. Once Songhe City was recaptured, those who only occupied Eastern Realm City would be instantly attacked by both Songhe City and Songshan City! The situation can get very bad all of a sudden.

"However, if we don't capture Songshan City before the other side's reinforcements arrive, and then when the reinforcements arrive, Songshan City's troops will take the initiative to attack, and we in Songhe City will still be attacked by the front and rear of the troops on both sides!"

"Not bad." Luo Ji nodded in agreement, then changed the subject, "So, he is waiting for reinforcements, and I am also waiting for reinforcements."

It was only the vanguard troops led by Guo Jia and Guo Zhen who rushed to Dongjing City before, and his large troops were still behind...

While talking, the siege troops outside the city had already sounded the horn of attack. Looking at the crossbows launched by the enemy's army, Luo Ji raised his hand and signaled the crossbowmen to start manipulating the three crossbows he had placed on the city wall. Bow and crossbow snipe the opponent.

It was a tentative outpost battle, but Luo Ji fought very seriously and pressed every step of the way, because he knew very well that once he showed weakness, the opponent would almost all attack the city with all his strength. After all, there are two The siege tower is there. With the siege equipment such as bed crossbows, ladders, and siege vehicles, the strength of this siege force is still quite strong. Coupled with the strength of the force, according to his current defense force, he really fights with all his strength. Get up, it is estimated that it is hanging.

So at this time, you can't show weakness, you have to play strong, so that the opponent can't figure out your reality, and then you can scare the opponent back, but now is not the time.
