Chapter 1012: East Becomes West 5

The drums rumbled, another round of attack began, watching the groups of Qin troops singing war songs in the drums, the Han army on the city tower couldn't help but admire the opponent's will to fight, these days, the Qin army has suffered heavy casualties under the Shannan county, but no matter how many casualties there are, it seems that it can't affect the desire for victory when they attack again. Every time the drums of war sounded, they began to attack again with confidence.

Qian Kezhuang, who had just been lying on the bed crossbow machine like a dead dog, jumped up again as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, bent down and picked up a crossbow arrow from the ground, plugged in the crossbow machine, and then turned the winch with a sigh to twist the crossbow arrow.

"The Qin people raised by the son of a bitch are really not afraid of death!" He hummed loudly, when Liaoning Wei fought with the Donghu people, the Donghu people, who were also known as the strongest army in the world, if they encountered such tragic casualties, they would have long since flapped their horses and left.

"The Qin people are rich and the people are poor, and the room for the people to rise is extremely limited, and military merit is the most convenient channel for them to change their living situation. Shang Kexi looked at the big knife in his hand, there were a lot of cuts on it, he raised his hand and threw the knife away, beckoning the soldier to bring him another 10 A new knife came over.

"Crossbow ready!" Shang Kexi commanded.

"Brothers, aim at the point, one at a time." Qian Kezhuang hissed and roared, the Shannan battalion he led now acts as a crossbowman, carrying out long-range strikes against the enemy, and when the Qin army carries their shots and conducts a battle in the city, it will change to a regular army to fight the enemy. Although these militia reservists are usually engaged in military training, after all, they have never fought and have never seen blood, and if they are allowed to fight in the first place, they are afraid that the losses will be great.

Shang Kexi is very careful when using these reserves, but it is extremely effective, these days, these reserve soldiers have begun to slowly get used to the scene of flesh and blood, and no one will see the dripping blood, flying limbs, turbulent stomach and intestines all over the ground and even vomit bitter bile water, now they can hold steamed buns in one hand without changing their faces and heartbeats, and serve vegetable soup in the other hand, facing the corpses all over the ground and swallowing in a big gulp.

"Shoot!" With a bang, Qian Ke violently pulled the machine, the crossbow arrow shot out, and a Qin army general who was riding on a horse and waving the flag vigorously fell off his horse.

"Middle One!" Qian Kezhuang laughed, and as he shot this arrow, on the city wall, countless feathered arrows flew out like locusts, and rushed straight to the Qin army under the city.

The armor-piercing ability of the Han crossbow arrows was too strong, whether it was a bed crossbow or an arm crossbow, the iron-clad wooden shield held by their soldiers could not compete with it at all, and the arrow almost shattered the shield. Only the kind of big shield that is more than one person tall can block the attack of the Han army's feather arrows.

Although the Qin crossbow is also extremely outstanding in this world, it is obviously inferior to the military industry of the Han State.

"Prepare the grease and set it on fire!" Shang Ke Xidao.

One by one, the shield carts, Meng Chong rushed to the city wall, the ladder clanged, set up the city wall, the soldiers of the Shannan battalion quickly retreated, from behind them, the soldiers with clay pots in their hands rushed up, and smashed the things in their hands down.

"Rocket!" The Shannan battalion soldiers who had retreated to the rear rushed forward again, only this time there were clusters of small flames burning on the arrows and arrows they shot in their hands.

In the swishing sound, the raging fire rose up, and the flames that ignited could make the Han army in the city feel the heat wave, and how the Qin army under the city felt, naturally I don't need to ask.

When this fire burns, it is difficult to stop, because there are too many corpses piled up under the city, but the smell is too unpleasant, and the smell of meat wafts with the flames, but when I think that this is human flesh, it can't help but make people feel extremely uncomfortable.

The Qin army slowly retreated, but the fire was still burning, and the soldiers in the city dipped their towels and tied them to their faces. Today, it seems that the Qin army will not attack again, this fire is not burned for a while, and it will definitely not be burned. It's a pity that these corpses of the Qin army can never return to their hometown.

In the camp of the Qin army, Wang Xiao's face was anxious, his fingers pressed on the map, and he swiped along a line from time to time. Tried his best to lure Feng Fayong out of Shannan County and annihilate him in one fell swoop, he originally thought that in this way, it would be easy to take Shannan County Town, and the little-known Shang Kexi didn't put it in his eyes at all, but now, this little-known general has firmly blocked him under the city for more than ten days.

"How much longer? How much longer?" He circled around the tent several times like a beast, looking up at the generals in the tent.

"General, according to the news from the Black Ice Platform, the Eastern Field Army of Dai County Helan Xiong has set off, and within ten days, they will leave Dai County."

"Ten days?" Wang Xiao's face gradually turned hideous, "Okay, I'll give you five days now, after five days, you won't be able to take Shannan County, the king wants my head, I will cut off your head first."

"Yes!" The generals bowed down in unison to receive the order.

"Get ready!" Wang Xiao waved his hand irritably.

This time the war against the Han State, the plan drawn up by King Wulie of Qin himself is definitely comparable to the great war ten years ago, which defeated the Xiongnu to the point of no return, one link after another, but if one of the links goes wrong, the whole strategy will end in failure. For this war, King Wulie of Qin did not hesitate to cede the land of Han to the State of Chu, and sent the interests of the State of Qi to the State of Chu, and used four generals, Li Xin, Meng Tian, Wang Xiao, Lu Chao, and King Wulie of Qin was bound to win.

But if the final result here is only to annihilate Feng Fayong's 20,000 Shannan soldiers, then the entire grand strategy will be bankrupt.

Ten years ago, Wang Xiao was so high-spirited, in a battle in the Huolan Mountains, he killed tens of thousands of Hun cavalry in one go, and his fierce reputation was blazing all over the world, but today, it was blocked out by the Shannan County City built by the Qin people themselves. Although over the years, Shannan County has long been changed beyond recognition by the Han army, but in Wang Xiao's eyes, this is still the Qin Shannan County Town.

This place, which was once a place of fame for oneself, will it also become a place of one's own failure? Thinking of this, Wang Xiao was even more annoyed in his heart, and he actually flew up and kicked the big case in the tent to the ground.

The guards outside heard that Wang Xiao, who had always been quiet, had lost his temper so much, and he was so frightened that he didn't dare to gasp loudly, for fear of making the angry boss angry with him.

The main target of the Qin people's battle was not Feng Fayong in Shannan County, but the Eastern Field Army of the Han Army led by He Lanxiong.

But now, this goal is on the verge of failure because Shannan County has not been able to take it for a long time.

Wang Xiao's task, the first step is to trap Feng Fayong and capture Shannan County, and in this process, He Lanxiong, who is stationed in Dai County, must hear the news to rescue, and what the Qin people want is that He Lanxiong leads his troops to leave Xiling City, the capital of Dai County.

And in the second step, Wang Xiao's task is to block Helanxiong in Daijun, but at this time, in the plan of King Qin Wulie, Xiling City, the capital of Daijun, should already be in the hands of the Qin army, and Helanxiong will be blocked in Daijun, and he will not be able to advance or retreat. Become a meal on the plate of Qin's army.

But Shannan County can't take it, and every qiē is in vain.

"Father!" As soon as the big tent was lifted, Wang Jian strode in, "I came back with the grain and grass, and this time I recruited 20,000 people from Jiuyuan County to come together."

"Well, it was yesterday along the way?" Wang Xiao asked.

"It's quite smooth," Wang Jian nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said in a low voice: "Father, General Li Xin has already begun to act, the 100,000 army has already passed through Hedong County to attack Dai County, and half of the county soldiers of Dai County were taken away by He Lanxiong, General Li Xin's move, I am afraid that it will be overwhelming, but if we do not block He Lanxiong in Dai County at that time, but let them out of Dai County, they can retreat to the prairie, and even retreat to Jishi City, so that we designed before the war to annihilate the Han Eastern Field Army in one fell swoop, The plan to cut off the height of the arm's length is completely impossible to implement."

"I know." Wang Xiao closed his eyes.

"Father, if you can't fulfill the king's request this time, I'm afraid the king will be really angry." Wang Jian said in a low voice. Father, even if we use human lives, we must pile up to Shannan County, this time I brought 20,000 people......"

"If you want to hurry, you can't reach it, Shannan County has been operated by Feng Fayong for several years, there are enough arrows and crossbows in the city, there are no food and grass, there are tens of thousands of trained foot soldiers who defend the city, we besieged Feng Fayong at the beginning, but Shang Kexi in the city did not send troops to rescue, and has laid the root of the bane for today, Jian'er, you personally supervise, let the 20,000 people cut down trees for me, build siege vehicles, siege vehicles that are level with the city wall, one hundred, one short, and then I will use their corpses to pile up the same height. Tomorrow morning, I'm going to see these siege engines, breaking the city, tomorrow." Wang Xiao stood up, "As you said, even if you use the corpse pile, I also have to take down the Shannan County City."

"Got it, father!" Wang Jian gave a salute, turned and withdrew from the tent.

At the border of Hedong County, Li Xin looked at Zhao Qi in front of him lightly, "Lord Zhao, happy cooperation!" He stretched out his hand and pointed at Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi's eyes flashed with anger, and he glared at Li Xin fiercely, "I don't believe you Qin people."

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it, the important thing is that now our strength can extinguish your Zhao Kingdom at any time. Whether to get out of the way and go with us to fight the Han Kingdom, or to perish immediately, I think Lord Zhao must have a plan in his heart, if my hundreds of thousands of troops of Daqin attack your Zhao State now, do you think Gao Gao will come to save you?" Li Xin said lightly: "Yes, maybe we will still fight you in the future, but the important thing is that now you are still alive, as long as you live, there is hope, the hope of turning defeat into victory, maybe we will have a chance with the Han Kingdom, right?"

The flickering anger in Zhao Qi's eyes dimmed little by little, and he said after a while: "Jing Rufeng is really ruthless, ruthless to us Zhao Guo, and even more ruthless to himself."

Li Xin was silent.

Zhao Qi slowly stretched out his hand and held Li Xin's hand, and the other party's hand was cold. With a slight clasp of his hands, Zhao Qi turned around and looked at Zhao Jun behind him, "Get out of the way!"

Li Xin smiled slightly, turned over his horse, and the Qin army crossed Hedong County, entered the upper valley, crossed the Shanggu County, and went straight to Dai County, I am afraid that the people of Dai County never dreamed that the Qin army would pass through the upper valley that was still controlled by the Zhao army, and attack them directly.
