Chapter 186: Greedy for life and afraid of death

After two rounds of arrows, the Qin army began to stop firing arrows.

Immediately after that, one after another stone throwers began to load stone bullets.

The sound of mechanical bouncing sounded one after another, and the boulders crossed an arc in the air, smashing all over the city pass one after another.

Rumble! Rumble!

There was a deafening sound everywhere, and the entire wall seemed to tremble, and if it hit the crowd, it was a terrible howl.

At this time, Cui Sheng didn't dare to stay in the city anymore, so he hurriedly pushed the corpse away, jumped up, and ran down with his helmet in his hand.

"Hold on! Resist it all for me! The Qin army is about to attack the city! Get ready to shoot your arrows! ”

He himself ran desperately down the city, but he was still commanding everyone.

The main general is greedy for life and afraid of death, how can the soldiers below have a trace of morale, not to mention, in the face of such a tiger and wolf division of the Qin army, the Tongguan Shu army has long been frightened.

It didn't take long for the inspiring war drums to sound, mixed with the collective roar of the Qin army.

Under the city pass, the dust is flying.

The Qin army marched and began to swarm towards the city pass.

The huge siege engine was pushed to the city gate and began to ram violently.

Ladders fill the entire city wall.

On top of that, there were strings of Qin troops who were climbing up frantically.

The stones and wood began to be thrown from the city by the Shu army.

The rain of arrows on both sides shot back and forth in the sky, and from time to time someone screamed and fell off the city wall.

Qin has always been despised as a barbaric land by the kingdoms of the heavens.

The Qin people have always been ridiculed as barbarians.

The world is inferior.

In this bitter cold land, the Qin army that came out of it was definitely a terrifying existence.

Especially this kind of siege warfare with the courage of the soldiers.

The courage of the soldiers of the Qin army is enough to be called a tiger and wolf.

Under this sharp and ferocious offensive, after fighting for two hours, the Shu army finally couldn't withstand it.

And the main general Cui Sheng was even more afraid that the Qin army would break through and it would be difficult for him to escape, so he didn't say a word, and directly shouted loudly: "Withdraw!" Evacuate! ”

With his order, the Shu army began to shrink across the board, and it didn't care about the city defense, it was rushing to run down.

This retreat, the Qin army followed the ladder and fully occupied the city, and then the city gate was also breached, and Tongguan was completely lost.

Cui Sheng was defeated with thousands of remnants, and he didn't look back, fleeing all the way.

Xiao Yuan immediately ordered to take Goldman Sachs as the front army, lead 20,000 troops, pursue along the way, and take advantage of the situation to capture the stone city in Tongguan.

"Remember, now the Lian Xiao army is coming towards Tongguan, although you are chasing Cui Sheng, but once you pass through the stone city, you can't go deeper!"

Before leaving, Xiao Yuan still told him with anxiety: "After occupying Shicheng, you only need to hold on for two days, the main force of our army, and then arrive, understand!" ”

When Goldman Sachs heard this, he immediately clenched his fists: "Please rest assured!" ”

"Good! Just go! ”

"No!"

The latter received the order and began to pursue along the way, along the way, Cui Shengna threw away his armor, and in order to escape, the battle flag weapon was thrown to the ground.

In the end, when he arrived in Stone City, Goldman Sachs did not dare to disobey the military order, but took the place and began to garrison it, waiting for the convergence of the main army.

As soon as the defenders of Tongguan were defeated, Shicheng had no troops, so Goldman Sachs occupied this place without any resistance.

And Xiao Yuan ordered him to quickly seize Shicheng, but he was also afraid that Lian Xiao would arrive, so he used Shicheng as a springboard to recapture Tongguan.

On the other side, Lian Xiao's department.

He led an army of 100,000 in Shu, which was less than 30 miles away from Shicheng.

But at this moment, a spy hurriedly ran over, then knelt on one knee, clenched his fists and said, "General! Cui Sheng was defeated, and Tongguan was lost! ”

"What!?" When Lian Xiao heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and then he was annoyed and angry: "Cui Sheng, this waste!" An army of 20,000 troops stationed in Tongguan did not even arrive for five days! ”

"General......" The spy swallowed his saliva: "In addition, Shicheng has also been occupied by the Qin army. ”

"Rubbish!" Lian Xiao was extremely angry, and asked angrily: "What about Cui Shengren!" ”

"Positive...... He is leading the remnants to our side. ”

Hearing this, Lian Xiao shouted directly: "After seeing him, bring him immediately!" ”

In the evening of the same day, Cui Sheng led the remnants of the defeated army and joined Lian Xiao.

Fleeing all the way, now I finally saw my own army, Cui Sheng's heart also fell when he mentioned his throat, he just let out a breath, lying on the ground weakly, and before he could rest well, there were soldiers riding horses, and then turned over and dismounted, hugged his fists and saluted:

"General Cui, General Lian Xiao asked you to go over."

"Okay, good ......" Cui Sheng took a few breaths, where did he care.

He was greedy for life and afraid of death, and escaped from the battle, thinking that he would be carefree when he met his own army, but who knew that Lian Xiao was annoyed at the moment!

After arriving at the big tent of the Chinese army, Cui Sheng hurriedly stepped forward and said with a shy smile: "Oh, General Lian, I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come unharmed." ”

Lian Xiao looked at him coldly.

Cui Sheng was suddenly a little embarrassed, but immediately, he smiled dryly: "Hehe, in this battle, if there is no general to respond, my life will be suspended." ”

"Humph!" Lian Xiao finally snorted coldly, and reprimanded in a cold voice: "Cui Sheng! Let me ask you, how many troops do you have! ”

"This ...... There are still 6,000 people left, what's wrong with General Lian. "Cui Sheng didn't know why.

Hearing this, Lian Xiao couldn't hold back any longer, and shouted angrily: "Six thousand soldiers! Abandon the city! Cui Sheng! If you are determined to persevere! How can you not keep a day! ”

"This, this ......" Cui Sheng hurriedly said: "The general doesn't know, the Qin army, the Qin army is too brave, the corporal and the soldiers, attacking the city, it's like not dying!" I...... I can't stand it! ”

"Shut up! You greedy for life and afraid of death! Tongguan is the world's Xiongguan! Mo said that there are still 6,000 people, that is, 3,000, 2,000, if there is a desperate and bloody battle, how can the Qin army attack it! Lian Xiao drank vigorously.

He is right, it is an absolute advantage to defend the pass with natural dangers.

Cui Sheng also wanted to explain.

But Lian Xiao was already angry again: "How important Tongguan is! General Ben has already sent you a letter, and the reinforcements will arrive in two days, but you are greedy for life and afraid of death! Funk! caused the Qin army to enter Shu! ”

He was so angry that after scolding, he shouted again: "Someone! ”

"In!" There were guards coming in.

"Take it!" Lian Xiao pointed directly at Cui Sheng.

"No!" The military order was issued, and the guards didn't care so much, one left and one right, pulling Cui Sheng and leaving.

"I see who dares!" As a result, the latter raised his arm and bounced the guard away, and at the same time said in a trembling voice:

"General Ben is the nephew of the lord! Who dares to take me! ”

The two guards hesitated suddenly, the pestle was there, and it was not to move, and it was not to move.

The other generals in the tent also said: "The general is angry......

Anyone knows, Huang Songyuan's nephew, can you take it!

Seeing everyone like this, Cui Sheng couldn't help but tilt his head slightly, glanced at Lian Xiao and said, "Lian Xiao, I don't care who you are, dare to touch me and try it!" ”

Lian Xiao's face was gloomy.

Seeing this, Cui Sheng sneered and continued: "What a bullshit military order! Lian Xiao, what kind of thing are you......"

It's just that before he finished speaking, Lian Xiao had already roared angrily, and then the battle sword was unsheathed and stood up!
