When the sky was bright, Shang Kexi woke up from his sleep behind a battlement, and he slept on the wall at night. Stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, turned his head to look into the distance through the gap between the battlements, couldn't help but widen his eyes, and rubbed it vigorously to confirm that he was not mistaken, in front of the Qin army camp not far away, under the slightly exposed fish belly white in the sky, what he saw was a dense array of huge siege vehicles that could not be seen at a glance, and each of these siege vehicles was almost as high as the city wall of Shannan County.

Hell, overnight, how did the Qin people build so many siege engines. Shang Kexi thought in shock, and looked a little farther up the mountain, where the trees that were originally lush and green were now mottled.

His face became grim, and the Qin people were about to start a crazy blow.

Wang Xiao stood in front of the huge siege vehicles, very satisfied with his son's attack this night, these siege vehicles compared to the general siege vehicles, made relatively large changes, although the work is rough, some even the branches and leaves of the trees are smooth and shaved clean, but extremely strong, huge iron nails will nail the thick and thin tree poles of the sea bowl together, the front of the siege vehicles, a piece of large iron shields one person high, providing the greatest protection for the siege vehicles, on the top two floors of the siege vehicles, placed several bed crossbows, It can be suppressed by firing at the enemy on the city wall, and more importantly, the √≦ is that the rear of the siege vehicle is no longer a ladder, but a long ramp dragged diagonally, so that the soldiers can directly rush to the highest level of the siege vehicle along this ramp when attacking, and then directly impact the opponent's city wall, and no longer need to climb up along the ladder, in terms of time, the saving is not a star and a half, and time, at that moment is naturally the most fatal, you can climb the city wall as fast as possible, This will give the attacker the shortest reaction time, and when everyone is at the same level, the two sides are almost on the same level.

"Okay, that's good, take down Shannan County and give you a head attack." Wang Xiao stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"Father, son asks for the first wave of attacks." Wang Jian said loudly.

"No need, you worked hard all night last night, let's take a good rest today, go to sleep, and when you wake up, we will probably be standing on top of Shannan County!" Wang Xiao is obviously in a good mood. Looking at the smoke rising from the camp everywhere, "After breakfast, the attack will begin, today, we must take Shannan County."

On the top of Shannan County, all the people in the city were silently preparing for the next bitter battle, and the sacks filled with soil were carried to the city wall and formed a high wall, and the enemy made so many and such tall siege vehicles, for the city, raising the city wall was the easiest and most effective.

In the past ten days, the Qin army outside the city has suffered heavy losses, but the city is by no means comfortable, Shang Kexi's 10,000 soldiers plus the reserve soldiers of the Shannan battalion, he has lost more than 3,000 people, for the Shannan county city that needs 20,000 people to protect the well, this is a huge number gap, and outside the city, the Qin army is still increasing troops, looking at the other party's side every day there will be a new camp, and the people in the city are silent.

Don't know when your reinforcements will come?

"There's a lot of good wine in the storeroom." Shang Kexi said suddenly, "Move out, let the soldiers drink, and add some strength."

"Wine?" Qian Kezhuang beside him turned his head and looked at Shang Kexi, "General, you seem to be a little lacking in confidence?"

Shang Kexi smiled bitterly, "You are right, I am indeed a little lacking in confidence, although the armament in the city is sufficient, but the problem is that we have no more people to use them, next, it must be a brutal white-knuckle fight, old money, the reserves under your command, I am afraid that I will not be able to withstand it when the time comes, and I will not be able to allocate more manpower to support you."

Qian Kezhuang was silent for a moment, "The Shannan camp doesn't need help, even if we use our bodies to block it, we will defend the city wall. General Shang, I'll guard Beibei, and I'll leave the rest to you."

Shang Kexi nodded, "I hope we can survive today, we can survive today, for the enemy on the opposite side, the blow will be fatal, then we can hold on for a longer time."

"Commander Helan should be on his way at this moment, right?"

"The army is dispatched, there is such a fast speed, the supply of logistics alone is a systematic project, this time it happened suddenly, I am afraid that in a short time, Commander Helan's army will not be able to leave Daijun. According to conservative estimates, the fastest cavalry under the command of Commander Helan will only take five or six days to reach us." Shang Kexi sighed, "I'm afraid it's hard to save the fire from far away."

The drums rumbled, and the huge array of cars on the opposite side began to move forward.

"Here we go!" Shang Kexi took a deep breath, "Come on, Wang Xiao, let me see what tricks the Great General of the Qin State has!"

To tell the truth, Wang Xiao really has no tricks that can be surprisingly successful, facing such a military fortress with sufficient armament and sufficient food and grass, there is no other way to use it except to fight hard. Fill it with human lives and flood the city with blood.

At the north gate, Qian Kezhuang stood in front of his Shannan battalion, these days, his Shannan battalion did not engage in white-knuckle fighting, and basically maintained a complete structure, and now the troops in the city are not enough, and the Shannan battalion must also go to the front line. Unlike the regular troops, the age structure of his team is very different, there are fifteen or sixteen-year-old teenagers, and there are fifty-six-year-old men, but without exception, what Qian Kezhuang sees in their eyes is a firm will to fight.

"Brothers, get ready to work!" Qian Kezhuang waved his hand, as if he was beckoning everyone to go down to the field to do farm work, and shouted casually.

The crossbow arrows were raised, and Qian Kezhuang stared at the approaching siege vehicle on the opposite side, and spat in the palm of his hand. the handle of the bed crossbow.

With a loud bang, the bed crossbow crossed the space and shot heavily at the siege vehicle, but it was blocked by the thick shield, which was half-embedded in the shield and could not do more damage. The people in the city all change color, but under the city, the Qin army let out a huge cheer, bulky, and sometimes there are also bulky benefits.

"The bed crossbow is of little use for this thing, the front is blocked by a big shield, the bed crossbow extends to shoot the foot soldiers behind it, and the arm crossbow covers the shot, damn, you should give the siege vehicle another cover, so that Lao Tzu has nowhere to put his mouth!" Qian Kezhuang snorted.

With the rumbling sound, the siege vehicles leaned against the city wall, the huge force made the entire city wall seem to be shaking, the city wall was raised with a sack, but at this time it was more than a meter higher than the siege vehicle, the city soldiers half knelt in one of the earthen fortresses, with their arms and crossbows frantically shooting at the siege vehicles. The soldiers of the Qin army shouted, and the soldiers in front of them were pushed forward one by one, and the soldiers who rushed to the front were already dead, but they could not fall, because the people behind were using them as meat shields.

"Pikeman, pikeman!" Qian Kezhuang shouted frantically, it was too late to wind the crossbow, he casually threw away the crossbow in his hand, picked up a spear at his feet, and stabbed it out with a shout. As if puncturing a urine bubble, Qian Kezhuang heard a slight explosion.

Shake the bowl, put away the gun, and poke it out again. There were two spears in front of him and stabbed him fiercely, when there were two sounds, a shield appeared in time to block these two shots, Qian Kezhuang took the opportunity to stab and stab the two Qin soldiers to death on the spot.

"Daddy Wang, thank you so much!" Qian Kezhuang turned his head to look at the old man who took a step beside him, and the old man grinned, revealing his mouth that was missing several front teeth, "The old man can't stab, but he can still block the gun for you."

On the other side, Shang Kexi danced his spear, shouted loudly and jumped directly from the battlements to the opposite siege vehicle, the spear danced like a windmill, and on the crowded siege vehicle, he was unexpectedly carved out of an open space, with Shang Kexi's movements, on the city wall, more soldiers jumped onto the siege vehicle and fought on the enemy's territory.

On the city wall, there were fierce shouts and killings everywhere, and the Qin army in many places also jumped on the city wall, and the Han army that rushed over to fight back was killed, and there was no place on the entire city wall that did not break out fierce battles.

"Set fire, set fire!" Shang Kexi turned around and killed back to the city wall, looking at the dangerous situation everywhere, and yelled.

"General, we've run out of grease."

"Wine, there's wine in the storeroom." Shang Kexi suddenly remembered something. Bring those wines, they're all spirits, they can be lit."

Soon, a jar of spirits was moved to the city, and Shang Kexi mentioned a jar of spirits, "Damn, it's cheap!" Throw your arms and smash a jar of wine into the siege engine. A torch was then thrown up.

With a bang, the jar shattered, and pale basket-colored flames rose into the air.

"Throw the wine, throw the jar over." Jars fluttered in the air and landed on the siege engines leaning against the city walls. The fire is raging again.

It was almost noon, and this attack of the Qin army was finally repulsed, but a smile appeared on the face of Wang Xiao under the city.

"Are they so poor that they are finally running out of grease? Even the wine was brought and set on fire, but I don't know how much wine there is in your Shannan county." The fragrance of wine permeated by the battlefield made many wine insects salivate, just sniffing, you will know that it is good wine, this is the Wu family of the Han Kingdom, in the Qin State, it is still not possible to brew such a strong good wine, that is, the Qin people's dignitaries, and the wine is also imported from the Han State.

Qian Kezhuang's face was full of regret, just this round of arson, just he threw more than a dozen wine jars out in one go, at that fateful moment, he couldn't care about it, now the enemy retreated, smelling the wine, he couldn't help but feel heartache.

"Son of a bitch, son of a bitch!" He couldn't stop scolding: "Old Wangtou, can you find some small jars, preferably they can only hold half a catty of wine."

"Old money, you have to steal a little!" Lao Wang asked in a low voice.

"Fart, when I was in Liaoning Wei, I saw General Meng Chong of Nanye also used this trick, but he used a small bottle of wine, made a twist in front, lit it and burned it for a while before throwing it out, bang, this bottle burst open, not only burning people, the sharp fragments can also kill people, throwing it like before, it's too wasteful." Qian Ke Zhuang said. (To be continued......)
