Riding and cutting the imperial pirates of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 203 Disaster on Xiao Qiang
Although he opened his mouth to surrender, it was just following the ancient practice of attacking a city by a large army. Wang Zheng didn't have high expectations in his heart.

After all, when they attacked Zang Kingdom a few days ago, they still encountered extremely tenacious resistance.

Although even so, it was useless, even the first wave of the Tianjun's offensive did not survive, and the damage caused was not too great.

But with the lessons learned from the past, Wang Zheng also gave up.

The state of Zang clearly knew that Langya County had completely fallen.

Under such circumstances, as an isolated city, they still refused to surrender in a desperate situation, which could only prove one thing again.

The signboard of the Yellow Turban bandits is really notorious in this era.

Unless it is really a matter of life and death, those officials, Confucian scholars, and gentry will consider surrendering, and it still needs to be concealed.

Surrender without a fight is almost impossible.

Xuzhou, which is already considered somewhat prestigious, is still like this, but Yuzhou, which currently has no grandeur
just forget it.

Of course, in fact, Wang Zheng knew in his heart that there was actually a way to make the opponent flee and surrender without a fight.

That is to imitate the Mengman alien race of later generations.

When they peeked at the original artifact in the picture, they sacrificed a big killer, which was the massacre of the city.

Slaughtering to the extreme, cruelty to the extreme, can naturally shock people's hearts and disintegrate resistance.

After all, no matter what time it is, those who are not afraid of death, and even have a loyal family, are always a minority.

What's more, it's not too difficult to find a reason to be a traitor.

But massacre.
Wang Zheng shook his head secretly, he couldn't do it.

At the very least, he would not consider doing this unless it was absolutely necessary.

Even though the souls of future generations hidden in the body have already been baptized to the point of being almost ruthless by more than a year of troubled life, Wang Zheng now does not hesitate to kill, and does not mind killing, but deep down in his heart, he cannot take the lives of ordinary people seriously. , as nothing.

can be slaughtered
But if it is just for deterrence, tens of thousands of lives will be sacrificed, Wang Zheng can't get over the hurdle in his heart.

That's it.

With the system in place, just grab it all the way!

That's what he thought when he invaded Zhuang Kingdom.

After shouting, Wang Zheng no longer cared about the reaction of the people of Xiao County, but immediately ordered the whole army to camp and cook.

The so-called half an hour is not so much a time for the other party to consider whether to surrender, but a time for the family to rest.

Xiao County, a county under the jurisdiction of Suzhou City, Anhui Province in the later Celestial Dynasty, is located in the suburbs of Xuzhou, on the southeastern edge of the North China Plain. Much warmer.

Under such a climate, and Wang Zheng and Tianjun are confident that Xiao County can be captured soon, the crude camp was naturally set up extremely quickly.

As time slowly passed, all the generals also greeted them at this time.

Xu Fang first reminded: "General, the food and grass in the army are almost exhausted, and there are only ten days left."

Wang Zheng nodded, looked around at the crowd, and said, "After the children are full, rest for a cup of tea, and immediately attack the city."

"Before sunset, I want the city gates to open wide!"

"promise!"

Since the strategic goal was to point directly at Pengcheng, facing such a strong pass, Wang Zheng chose to make a surprise attack under Mi Heng's suggestion, so naturally he didn't bring too much stored food.

Even the siege equipment, except for a few catapults, was planned long ago. After the capture of Xiao County, which is the closest to Pengcheng, they were rushed to manufacture.

It has been able to support until now, except for a wave of replenishment in the country of Zang, many of them came from some sentries who marched along the road.

For example, the sentry is to send food. Although it is said to be a whistle, it is actually a grab.

Those merchants and the villages and towns along the way can only be said to be unlucky when they encounter the Heavenly Army at this time.

Perhaps apart from the bottom line of not doing meaningless killings, Wang Zheng will only hypocritically talk about innocence, benevolence, righteousness and morality when he has capital.

Glancing under the city, seeing the large group of unknown enemy troops starting to set up camp, the military officers beside the young general became more solemn.

See Weizhi book.

Just looking at such quick but orderly movements, one can know that the strength of these more than ten thousand soldiers and horses is by no means vain.

Several people looked at each other in blank dismay, and a middle-aged military officer finally stepped forward under the urging of his colleagues' eyes.

"Captain Qiao." He asked the young general in a low voice, "What should I do?"

"What should I do?" Captain Qiao glanced at him angrily: "It's nothing more than soldiers coming to block, water to cover!"

"I'm going to discuss it with the county lord, and you should be more vigilant and defend with all your strength."

"Shou?"

Although this answer was expected, it still disappointed everyone on the field, and even some people's faces turned ugly immediately.

The middle-aged man couldn't help but said: "Captain, you and I know the situation in the county."

"Even if all the old, weak, sick and disabled are recruited, there are still less than a thousand soldiers!"

"There are more than ten thousand soldiers and horses on the opposite side, and you can tell at a glance that they are warriors of hundreds of battles. How can you let us defend, and how can we defend?"

"If you can't keep it, then fight to the death with all your strength!" The young man snorted coldly, looked around the crowd, and said in a serious tone, "Duke Yuan treats me very kindly, Qiao Hong will never betray the lord and vote for him!"

Treating you very kindly is not treating me very kindly!

Hearing this, everyone on the field complained secretly, and the atmosphere instantly became strange.

As if he had noticed something, the young man was startled, his gaze slowly circled the audience, his face became more righteous and awe-inspiring.

"Don't worry, gentlemen."

"We have high walls in Xiao County, and our troops are good. According to the location, even if we can't outnumber the enemy, if we stick to it, we should be able to hold out for a few days."

"I'm going to discuss with the county lord right now, and I will immediately send a messenger to ask for help from Lord Inspector!"

While uttering words to appease floating hearts, the young man hurriedly walked down the city.

Seeing the figure of the other party leaving in a hurry, the middle-aged man sighed, and looked down the city again, feeling at a loss for a while.

"Mr. Xun, don't listen to Qiao Hong's nonsense!"

At this time, another military officer walked up to the stunned middle-aged man and reminded him in a low voice: "The opposite is Cao Jun!"

"Cao Jun."

Hearing this, the military officer surnamed Xun was taken aback and looked over.

"That's right." The military officer continued to lower his voice: "I have a grudge with Yuan Gong, and I have a covetous eye on my Yuzhou, and now I have entered my Peiguo even more silently, to my Xiaoxian County, who else can there be besides Yanzhou Mu?"

"Look at the armor of the soldiers and horses in the city. The color of the clothes." The military officer slapped his thigh: "This is the characteristic of the Yanzhou Army."

"It was Cao's army who came to commit the crime," the military officer surnamed Xun asked nonchalantly, "So what?"

"Hey!" Seeing his unresponsiveness, the military officer sighed helplessly, but he didn't dare to make another sound. After thinking about it, he made two mouth shapes.

"Tu..." The military officer surnamed Xun continued to mutter with a puzzled expression on his face, his whole body trembled as soon as he uttered the first word, and he finally came to his senses.

"You mean?"

"That's right." The military officer said anxiously: "Didn't the general in the city say everything just now? We are only given one hour to think about it. If we choose to resist, will I, Xiaoxian, have the same fate as Pengcheng?"

Seeing that the military officer surnamed Xun seemed to be still hesitating, the military officer couldn't bear it anymore, and directly said a sentence of condemnation.

"Mr. Xun, you and I are both from Xiao County, and our families are all in the city."

"But Qiao Hong and the County Lord are not like that!"

These words shocked the military officer surnamed Xun, and his heart, which was wandering at both ends, began to slide quickly in a certain direction.
