What is the most important thing about a well-defended military fortress at the forefront of an enemy country?

The answer is very simple, the last thing that is lacking is a variety of weapons to defend the city, especially the Saimen knife car.

The Qin army, who had finally rushed into the city through the secret door in the city gate hole, was soon pushed out again, and it was the Saimen knife cart that pushed them out again.

Originally, the secret door only allowed two people to pass side by side, and the Qin army who rushed out of the secret door at the first time was weak and was quickly killed, and then Zhao Jun was not in a hurry to rush into the secret door, but pushed the door knife car again, and directly blocked the two secret doors.

After the fourth city gate in the city gate cave was shattered, only the last city gate was left, in order to prevent Li Ling from using that terrible weapon to bombard the city gate again, the soldiers guarding the city actually opened the city gate directly, and used the gate knife cart to form a barrier, completely pushing the Qin army out of the city gate.

Subsequently, under Li Ling's nose, using shields as a means of resisting bows and crossbows, a large number of people in the city began to pour a large amount of debris into the city gate hole, intending to completely block the city gate hole.

Due to the blockage of the Saimen knife cart in front, the Qin army could not approach at all, so they could only let the defenders in the city block the door.

"There's no way, no matter how distressed you are, you have to do this!"

Whoosh~~boom~~~

It's another fire

The bullet directly hit the city gate, and the defenders instantly suffered countless casualties, but because the last city gate was open at this moment, the explosion did not destroy the city gate.

Seeing that the situation had changed, Zhao Jun couldn't care about rescuing the injured soldiers and civilians who were not dead, so he had to close the door directly.

The knife cart was destroyed again, and the gate had not yet had time to close, how could the Qin army let go of such an opportunity?

Almost at the moment when the Zhao army was about to close the gate, a Qin soldier squeezed directly into the city gate.

The Qin soldiers barely reacted, and they were hacked to death with a knife just after squeezing into the city gate, but this was enough!

Because of his fearlessness of death, the Zhao army did not have time to completely close the city gate, and the Qin army behind swarmed directly, and the city gate was finally broken at the moment of dawn!

The gates were broken, the walls themselves were already at a disadvantage, and a total rout was almost expected.

Throwing away the bazooka and picking up the automatic rifle, Li Ling strode directly towards the city gate, ready to meet the upcoming and even more tragic battle for the city wall.

What Li Ling didn't expect was that after discovering that the city gate was lost, the Yecheng garrison actually directly ordered the withdrawal of the army, leaving only a part of the people to delay the Qin army, and a large number of Zhao Guosheng's troops all withdrew into the inner city.

Yecheng is divided into two cities, the outer city is strong enough, but the inner city is ten times stronger than the outer city.

The walls were higher than the outer city, and on top of them were sturdy towers every ten meters, flanked by trebuchets and bed crossbows.

If this is not the only thing to be afraid of, what is even more deadly is that there are not only complete fortifications on the inner city walls, but also mountains of arrows, fire oil, shields, logs, and rolling stones, as long as Zhao Jun wants to defend it, it is not a problem to hold it for as long as he wants.

With the Zhao army fully retreating into the inner city, the Qin army completely occupied the outer city, and at the same time, Li Ling was worried that the tragedy of the eldest son city would be staged again, and he also specially ordered someone to search the whole city, but what Li Ling didn't expect was that the Zhao army retreated so completely.

All the houses were empty, not only was there no one, not even a grain of food, and as for the well water, it had all been poisoned!

Obviously, the Zhao army had already been prepared to defend to the death, far earlier than the time when Li Ling launched the siege, as early as when Li Ling had just arrived at the front line, the Zhao army had received information, and expected that Li Ling would definitely attack Yecheng on a large scale.

"Give the order to go down, rest and recuperate, fetch water from outside the city, and don't drink the water source in the city."

After searching the entire outer city, Li Ling began to have a headache, and it seemed that the attack on Yecheng would be delayed for a long time.

Looking at the magnificent inner city wall, and then at the super small inner city gate, Li Ling knew that it would be impossible to beat the inner city for a while, so he had no choice but to order a rest.

"Why don't I lead some troops to bypass Yecheng and attack other places first?"

Yang Duanhe was also very helpless.

"It's not proper, if you withdraw part of your troops, and then the Zhao army seizes the opportunity to counterattack, then not only will the remaining army suffer huge losses, but you will also be cut off from the back road, and it will be even more troublesome at that time."

Meng Wu obviously didn't agree with Yang Duanhe's opinion, and Xiong Qi nodded again and again after listening to Meng Wu's analysis.

"Don't move the troops here for the time being, let Feng Zai bypass Yecheng and take Yiyang directly, it should be easy to fight over there, I heard that there is not even a decent city wall there."

It is not Li Ling's habit to use reserves, but now he must use Feng Zheng's reserves, and it is impossible for the army to be consumed in Yecheng all the time.

Since the defenders of Yecheng have long been prepared to defend to the death, that is to say, King Zhao has probably sent someone to inform Pang Nuan, who is fighting in Yan State, even if Pang Nuan is not used to return, Li Mu of Yanmen may also be ordered to be in danger.

Wang Jian has not yet reached the front line, and it will not do him any good if he consumes it, but will put the army in a difficult situation.

"Strengthen the night garrison to prevent the enemy from breaking through, and at the same time send additional manpower to reconnoiter outside the city, expand the reconnaissance area to thirty miles, and ensure that once there are reinforcements from the Zhao army, we can respond as soon as possible."

After ordering Feng Zheng to attack, he besieged the inner city of Yecheng for a day, during which he tried a small-scale siege and failed, as night fell, Li Ling inspected various sentry posts, and repeatedly reminded the soldiers to pay attention to vigilance, and then returned to his camp to rest.

After lying on the bed, Li Ling found that he couldn't sleep no matter what, tossing and turning.

'What's the danger?' ’

After getting up and getting dressed, Li Ling inspected the sentry posts in the city again at midnight to make sure that there were no omissions, then returned to the camp and carefully combed through all the information he had mastered several times, and it was indeed impossible to have any problems.

"It's strange, how can you be so uneasy?"

Obviously there are no loopholes, but he can't sleep, Li Ling knows that he has to sleep no matter what, because he must cultivate his spirit, and tomorrow he plans to try to find a way to break the inner city.

Closing his eyes and covering his head with the quilt, it took a long time for Li Ling to finally feel sleepiness coming.

However, at this time, just when Li Ling was finally about to fall asleep, there was a sudden gong sound outside the tent!

This is a warning of an enemy attack!

"Could it be that those Zhao people really took advantage of the night to break through or recapture the outer city?"

While muttering in my heart, I hurried to get dressed, grabbed my gun, and walked out of the camp directly!

"What's going on!"
