Chapter 37: The Bloody Battle of the Manifestation of the Sun
With the rising sun, a new day has finally arrived. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
However, for the sun at this time, the early morning time does not represent vitality, on the contrary, it can bring more disaster.
Woo!!!!
A long horn broke the silence in an instant, standing on the city wall of Xianyang as high as dozens of zhang and looking around, in the field of vision, the flag fluttered, the murderous aura was pervasive, and a team of elite warriors in full armor sonorously and forcefully trampled the earth that had not recovered from yesterday's ravage.
Three consecutive days and nights of non-stop attack, just last night, the two sides had a tacit understanding of Mingjin to withdraw troops, but everyone could smell it, this was just the calm before the most violent came.
The city wall that has grown for hundreds of miles is no longer as majestic as it used to be, and many places have become ruins and broken walls in the smoke and fire, crumbling and crumbling, making people wonder if they can withstand the next tragic attack.
Gongzijun, who arrived in the middle of the night, was accompanied by several generals at this time, waited for the highest castle tower, and looked solemnly at the enemy troops lined up outside the city, ready to attack.
"Childe, I'm afraid that Xianyang will be difficult to survive today, in the opinion of the last general, let's make plans as soon as possible, otherwise, if we are trapped in death, everything will be over." A rather tall and mighty general couldn't care about the black face on his face that was roasted by gunsmoke, and couldn't help but persuade Gongzi Jun.
Gongzi Jun glanced at the other party seemingly casually, but he saw the slightly trembling legs under his tall body very slightly.
Three days and nights of tragic attacks have obviously frightened the general's courage, and if it weren't for Gongzi Jun's personal arrival, I am afraid that he would have escaped from the battle.
Gongzi Jun recognized this person, his name was Duan Feihong. Among the military attachés who served him, he had a good reputation and was quite brave.
Because of this, this person was entrusted with an important task by Gongzi Jun and assumed the main general of the Xianyang Defense Battle.
However, from the bottom of his heart, Gongzi Jun was not particularly satisfied with this choice, and even made a compromise due to pressure from all sides.
Duan Feihong is brave, but he is too arrogant and domineering, relying on the 50,000 private troops he brought when he surrendered, I don't know how many benefits he asked for from Gongzi Jun.
Official position, given. Military funding, give. He was even given the privilege of appointing low-level officers at a convenient pace.
Childe Jun has given so much, but what has he got?
Relying on the thick walls of the city, Xianyang, only lasted for three days, and it was already on fire everywhere and was in danger. But now, this person has the fear of retreating without a fight.
All kinds of performances, how can Gongzi Jun be satisfied.
"General Duan, but you're scared?" Gongzi Jun endured his anger and sneered.
"Huh?" Duan Feihong was able to get to his current position, not just by virtue of his bravery, his city government was also not lacking, how could he not hear the meaning of accountability in Gongzi's words.
It's just that what if you hear it?
In front of face and life, Duan Feihong didn't feel that there was anything to hesitate.
He came to serve Gongzi Jun for glory and wealth, but he didn't come to work hard.
"Childe, I don't know what you mean by this. Since the end of the army, he has never known what to fear. However, what is going on now is not a personal fight in the rivers and lakes, but a war. Not to mention that victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, as the commander, the last general can't watch all these 100,000 soldiers fold in this Xianyang City. ”
Gongzi Jun can't look down on Duan Feihong, and on the other hand, Duan Feihong can never afford Gongzi Jun.
In his opinion, Gongzi Jun was born in the emperor's family, and he relied on his identity to have today's situation. As for its talents? Hmph, think about his obscurity before, you can imagine it.
A gentleman who relied on his life experience and opportunism to ascend to the throne actually tried in vain to sit on the highest throne of Chu State, which was really wishful thinking.
It is precisely because of this contempt in his heart that Duan Feihong's attitude is very tough.
The gist of what I said just now is obvious, if I want to beat you, Lao Tzu will not accompany you, what can you do?
"Where are the overseers?" Gongzi Jun suddenly turned his head away and said coldly to the generals behind him.
"Mo will be Hui, I've seen Childe." A middle-aged, thin man who looked like a scholar more than a soldier hurriedly stepped forward and saluted.
"In three days of continuous fighting, how much did our army lose?" Gongzi Jun didn't look at Yu Hui either, and asked coldly.
"Yu Gongzi, our army is 100,000, and there are three out of ten battles one after another, and the wounded are countless." Although Yu Hui was apprehensive, he still replied honestly.
This kind of military affairs, as a small supervising army, he did not dare to hide it in the slightest.
"Then, how many soldiers are there in this Xianyang City?" Gongzi Jun's body twitched secretly, endured the sharp pain in his heart, and pretended to be calm.
In three days, 30,000 died, and as the party defending the city, if possible, he really wanted to twist that Feihong's head off and ask, how was this battle fought?
"Yes, there should be 50,000 more." Yu Hui replied ambiguously.
"What do you mean by should?" Gongzi Jun's forbearance was suddenly stimulated, if his eyes could kill, then it can be believed that Yu Hui at this time had already been cut by Gongzi Jun with thousands of knives.
"This ...... This is not a secret to the son, because the war is unfavorable, many soldiers have disappeared for no reason in the past two days. Although Yu Hui said it tactfully, Gongzi Jun couldn't hear it.
The so-called disappearance is just a fig leaf to cover your ears and steal the bell, and it is not good to say, deserters have already appeared in Xianyang City.
Internal and external troubles, is the situation more severe than this?
At this time, Gongzijun's heart was full of bitterness, and he was even shaken.
Could it be that he was wrong from the beginning and should not have fought for the throne that did not belong to him in the first place?
Fortunately, this trace of vacillation was quickly swept away from Gongzijun's heart.
There is no regret medicine in the world, and he doesn't regret it.
The most important thing now is how to defend against the enemy, and not to feel sorry for yourself like a woman here.
Boom, boom, boom......
The sound of war drums shook the world.
As the entire earth trembled violently, outside the city walls, the army that had been waiting for a long time was finally launched.
"Lonely King, no matter what calculations you have in your hearts now, now that the enemy is present, if you can't prevent this attack, then everyone is doomed." Gongzi Jun didn't have time to straighten out the military affairs, and almost hoarsely shouted at the generals, "Everyone is in position and ready to meet the enemy." ”
Gongzi Jun is right, at this time, the war has begun, if you want to escape again, then you will only die faster. Only by attacking and retreating the enemy's wave first, can they have time to reserve a way back.
Duan Feihong was not a straw bag, although his heart was full of war-weariness, but in the end he didn't say anything more, and with his order, all the generals present left quickly and ran towards the section of the city wall they were defending.
After a while, Gongzi Jun was left with only the prison army named Yu Hui and several pro-army guards who were born in the sixth rate of the world, and Chu Xuxu, who had already been under the command of the sixth rate of the world, was impressively listed.
"This Yelu Shangqi can sit on the general of the Chu State, and he is really not an incompetent person." Gongzi Jun looked at the enemy array outside the city in an orderly manner, and couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion in his heart.
Chu Xuxu, who was on the side of "Childe ......", couldn't help it, his face was full of worry, and he wanted to speak, but there seemed to be a lot of taboos, and in hesitation, his eyes were fixed on Gongzi Jun's face.
"What? Do you see that? Gongzi Jun smiled self-deprecatingly, but did not stop Chu Xuxu from speaking.
"Just looking at the opposing camp, the Chinese army pressed in a big way, with cavalry as the vanguard on both flanks, followed by sword and axe hands, to protect the archers at the rear, this posture ...... It's going to be a blast. "Chu Xuxu can sit on the leadership of the six rates of the world, not only is he trusted by Gongzijun, not to mention his military talent, but this eyesight is enough to show his wisdom.
"Yes, King Gu has probably taken a look, this time Yelu Shangqi has almost launched an attack of more than 100,000 troops, plus the losses in the previous three days, almost at least sixty percent of the combat power has been used. This scale is very different from the previous few days. It seems that Yelu Shangqi has finally lost the last patience and vows to take down Xianyang in one fell swoop. Childe Jun nodded in agreement.
"That son, let's ......" Chu Xu hesitated a little, obviously what he didn't say later was not good.
"Xuxu, don't say it. For the sake of today's plan, we have no way out, go down and tell the prince of the world to prepare for a death battle. ”
