Chapter 1220 Covetousness
Chapter 1220 Greedy
The Qin army's military intelligence is very powerful. In this entire Mengjin War Zone, there is no need to say much about the speed of the Falcon's transmission.
Ai Pingbu.
There are 20,000 Qin troops here, which are advanced from the occupied Xingcheng and continue to move northward. If you conquer the Tangzhong, you will be able to move your whole body. Mengjin's entire western line, the north line, and even the northwest and southwest will fall instantly.
Otherwise, Xiao Yuan would not say that he would conquer the pond, and the overall situation would be settled.
Aiping is in his thirties. Although he is not as good as the eight brave generals, he has fought all the way and participated in many battles.
At this moment, the 20,000 Qin troops were still dozens of miles away from Tangzhong County, but they were under the Dai City.
Daicheng, a very small place, has no strategic significance in the entire Mengjin battle situation.
To put it simply, as long as you take down the pond, that city will be destroyed without attacking.
The issue of strategic location will determine whether a city is bound to compete.
Xiao Yuan's king's order was very clear, and he allowed Aiping to march quickly and could not be delayed. Tangzhong was the top priority.
But when Aiping passed by, he saw the Lingjun battle flag running on the top of the city, he was unwilling to leave just like that. Instead, he ordered the entire army to temporarily repair it, and then called the deputy general and had a simple discussion, preparing to remove Daicheng.
There are only more than a thousand spiritual troops here, and the Spirit King only has some symbolic garrisons here.
It is not difficult for the 20,000 Qin troops to take this place, but the deputy general said: "The king and king order have arrived, so we will order our troops to quickly conquer Tangzhong. If we fight Daicheng now, what should we do if we delay time here?"
"Oh?" Ai Ping waved his hand and said, "You can capture the small Dai City once you walk and pass by, and it will not delay the king's order. Besides, taking down this place will be a reward. Don't you want to make more military achievements?"
"This..." The deputy general hesitated.
As a result, Aiping made a decision directly: "I think I'll do it this way. I quickly conquer Dai City, then enter the pond and take them all. If I win two cities in a row, I will definitely be rewarded by the King."
He is the chief general of this tribe. In addition, when it comes to military achievements, the deputy general was still a little hesitant, but he chose to default.
Ai Ping was greedy for me and wanted to take both, so he began to attack Daicheng.
It would be fine if you can get here quickly without wasting time. Once you can't fight for a long time, it would be like directly disrupting Xiao Yuan's strategic deployment.
Because the pond is now extremely empty, as long as you can advance lightning, under the fierce attack, the reinforcements of the Ling Kingdom will definitely not have time to support it.
But Aiping did not have a big strategic military vision, and he felt that it would be a reward for taking down the city.
As a result, in the battle of Daicheng, 20,000 Qin troops fought for several hours, but still failed to attack the top of the city.
Although this city is small, the defenders in the city are fighting to the death, falling rocks and rolling under the wood, and arrows from both sides are shooting back and forth above their heads, and the attack is extremely fierce.
This was not only far beyond Ai Ping's expectations, but also passed by without realizing it.
At this time, the deputy general was a little unable to help it and said a little worriedly: "General, in the battle of Daicheng, the spiritual army will fight stubbornly. If you continue to fight like this, it will be delayed for a long time."
According to the current situation, it is equivalent to fighting more than half of the battle. If the battle is fought again, the Daicheng defenders will definitely be insufficient and can definitely be taken down.
What's more, the soldiers have been damaged here, how could Ai Ping give up at this time? Hearing the words, he immediately said: "Continue to fight! No matter what, you must conquer Dai City!"
The war continues.
It was not until the Ling Army had insufficient troops that it attacked the city, but at this moment, night had already fallen.
The Qin army was also tired after the fierce battle. If you wanted to marches in a hurry, there were many difficulties in the road at night.
Due to time, Aiping had to force the soldiers to rush on his way.
After the war, the Qin army soldiers did not receive any renovations and rushed all the way.
Finally, a tired army came to the city of Tangzhong.
At this time, the spirit general Yuan Ming was also on the way to support him.
The war broke out quickly. Although the pond was empty, there were some defenders who attacked the tired army. On the first day of the siege, there was no need to say that Aiping was hit head-on.
He immediately changed his strategy and divided the siege into several batches. The first team fought, and then he rested and adjusted, and took turns to fight.
This strategy has significantly restored the Qin army's combat power, but according to normal circumstances, it will take one or two days to hit the pond.
On the morning of the third day, Aiping finally saw the dawn of victory, and the city defense in Tangzhong began to show many shocks, which was in danger.
He was on the front line to command, and he couldn't help but pointing to the sword and shouting: "The spiritual army can't be defended anymore! The soldiers rushed--"
The Qin army was full of morale and was exhausted, but the most fierce attack broke out.
Outside the city gate, looking into the eyes, there were black armored and red tassels holding swords high everywhere, rushing to climb up the ladder.
I thought that this round of charge would break the city, but the situation immediately reversed.
The Lingjun, who was originally unable to defend, suddenly seemed to have changed his personal power, and the defense lines in various places were constantly being added on the city defense.
Reinforcements from Lingguo arrived.
There is no doubt that this wave of offensive was quickly suppressed. Seeing the sudden change in the battle situation, the deputy general of the Qin army immediately found Ai Ping and said bloodily: "General, the situation is wrong. The reinforcements from the Ling Kingdom have arrived."
How could Ai Ping not see it? He had already received military information before. He heard this and gritted his teeth and shouted unwillingly: "Get off the troops first!"
Because the Qin army had been fighting for a long time and was exhausted, fighting at this time would only increase casualties.
The sound of gold sounded, and the siege army evacuated like a tide, leaving behind corpses and arrows on the ground.
Soon, Yuan Ming also stood in the middle of the city. Based on the military situation, he naturally knew who the other party was, so he shouted:
"Aiping! I am here now! How dare you step into the pond!"
"I'd like to advise you to go back wherever you come from! Otherwise, you'll be humiliating yourself!"
"Yuan-Ming!" Ai Ping almost gritted his teeth, his eyes were so angry that he glared at the top of the city.
Seeing him like this, the deputy general hurriedly advised: "There are 30,000 reinforcements in Lingguo. It is not the best way to attack forcefully at this time. General thinks twice..."
"Ah!!!" Ai Ping yelled angrily, but he could only roar unwillingly: "Get away first!"
When they retreated, Yuan Ming did not pursue them rashly, but instead made a strong stand firm and held the pond.
At this time, it was almost impossible for Ai Ping to capture this place with his own troops.
To put it bluntly, the war has been delayed by Daicheng. If he hadn't been greedy for his achievements, he would have arrived in the pond one day earlier and would not have made the entire army become a tired army. Now the head of the city is definitely Qin flag. When Yuan Ming comes, it is impossible to retake this place. The Qin army's follow-up troops will continue to be there.
On the way to evacuate, Aiping felt his mistake in Daicheng and couldn't help but say sadly: "The pond has not been broken, how can I explain to the king..."
