Chapter 954: Fierce Battle

Following.

With the sound of the earth-shattering war drums, a large wave of Korean soldiers began to pour towards the western city wall.

In the tower on the city wall, Zhao Ju looked at the Han army who was getting closer and closer, and coldly ordered: "Send an order, let the strong crossbow shoot." โ€

On the city wall, the soldiers who had already been ready immediately shot their crossbow arrows as soon as they received the order. Immediately afterward, the crossbow was stretched and loaded by the seven soldiers, and the crossbow bolts were ready again, and then fired again.

Waves of more than 100 crossbow arrows shot out, as fast as lightning, and before the Han soldiers could react, they shot through them and then nailed them to the ground.

In the face of the strong crossbow, the shield in the hand of the Han people, the leather armor and even the iron armor on the body did not play any role. As long as you are shot, you are either seriously injured or die on the spot.

Even if the crossbow arrow misses the air and falls to the ground, the sound of its burst shooting through the air, the loud sound of the landing, and the rapid trembling of the arrow can also make the people who see the crossbow arrow panic.

However, in front of the huge number of besieging troops, less than 200 crossbow arrows at a time fell like a small pebble into a large lake, only stirring up a small wave, and then it was drowned by the tide of the army.

A large number of Han soldiers, driven by the generals, rushed towards Chen Cheng, and the charge of the Han army was not affected by the strong crossbows with a slow rate of fire.

Seeing this, Zhao Ju commanded expressionlessly: "Huang Jun, tell those soldiers who operate the strong crossbow, let them try to speed up the fire rate of the strong crossbow, don't worry about their own strength, and don't worry about the loss of the strong crossbow." As long as they can hold out for two hours, they can end today's battle, and someone will naturally take over their defense of the city. โ€

"No."

As the Han sergeant at the beginning rushed into the range of the bow and arrow, Zhao Ju ordered again: "Order, let the crossbowmen shoot rapidly, don't worry about the lack of arrows, don't worry about the bow, let them shoot the arrows in their hands as much as they want, as long as they can hold on for an hour, they can end today's battle." โ€

With the issuance of the military order, for a while, arrows rained down like a steady stream.

On the other side, the overseer of the battle had already noticed that the situation was different today when he shot a powerful crossbow far more than yesterday on the city wall.

Now, seeing that the frequency of arrows shot by the Chu army is much higher than yesterday, it is instantly determined that the Chu army in the city today is very different.

"It seems that our Qin-Han coalition army has also begun to storm Chencheng, which has caused the Chu army in the city to rush to a strong pressure, so that it has caused a strong backlash from the Chu army's generals."

Muttering softly, the storm kite looked at the rain of arrows that continued to fall on the city wall and smiled contemptuously: "With such a high frequency of shooting, how long can the arrows in the city last, even if the arrows in the city can hold on, can the archer's arm hold on?" โ€

As he spoke, the storm kite smiled and ordered: "Pass the order, let the second wave of siege soldiers step forward immediately, and they are going to suppress the arrogance of the Chu people." โ€

"No."

As a drum sounded in the South Korean army's formation, the second South Korean army, which had already been prepared for a long time, immediately swarmed forward.

As time went on, the crossbowmen on the city walls had changed twice, the men who wielded the large crossbows had also changed, and the guards in charge of other matters had also been rotated.

At the same time, the six formations of the Korean army besieging the city have already begun to attack the city, and the seventh wave of siege soldiers is ready.

After two hours of fierce fighting, Han Junsui launched a fierce attack on the city wall, but under the strong resistance of the Chu army, he never gained a firm foothold on the city wall.

And the city wall has a steady stream of crossbows and arrows.

At this time, the violent kite in the Han army's array looked at the city with a heavy face: "It's been two hours, why is the resistance of the Chu army still so fierce?" Why did the arrows shot by the Chu army never decrease? It seems that the Chu army at the head of the city will not be tired or killed. โ€

As he spoke, the violent kite commanded with a solemn gaze: "Come on, immediately go to the north and east to inquire about the battle situation, I will know if the Chu army on the other two sides is also resisting fiercely." โ€

"No."

While the storm kite was waiting for news, a scout hurriedly ran to report: "General, the Chu army is resisting fiercely, our army's onslaught has been fruitless, and the morale has plummeted, please send reinforcements immediately." โ€

Hearing this, the storm kite's face turned dark, and he sent reinforcements, this is already the seventh wave of siege soldiers, and when the seventh wave of siege soldiers was sent yesterday, the siege battle was almost over.

And now...

The storm kite looked at the sun, it was still noon, and the siege was only halfway through.

This...

Storm Kite said in a cold tone: "Send an order, let the seventh wave of soldiers go to reinforcements, and the eighth wave of soldiers will start to prepare." โ€

"No."

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

After the war, although Storm Kite had long known that the battle damage in today's battle would be terrifying, when he really saw today's battle damage, he couldn't help but gasp: "Damn, today's casualties are more than twice as many as yesterday's." โ€

As he spoke, the storm kite took out another piece of information from the case, looked at it, and said coldly: "The Chu army in the east and north has not been abnormal today, and the arrows and crossbows have not suddenly surged. โ€

After speaking, the violent kite suddenly slapped this information on the case, and said angrily: "The Chu people must have transferred the main force to the west, Zhao Ju regards my Qin-Han coalition army as the weak link of the coalition army, and thinks that my Qin-Han coalition army has no determination to fight to the death?" โ€

As he spoke, the violent kite stood up suddenly, glared angrily in the direction of Chen Cheng, and said viciously: "Okay, I want to see if Chen Cheng was broken first, or whether my Qin-Han coalition army was the first to hold on." Hmph, the Chu army has been fighting fiercely for a year, and it hasn't been long since my Qin-Han coalition army really attacked the city, and the general doesn't believe it..."

Subsequently, for three days in a row, when the Korean army attacked Chencheng, it was met with strong resistance from the Chu army, and the battle losses of the Chu and Han armies in the west far exceeded those in the northeast.

Early in the morning of the fifth day, Zhao Ju stood on the city tower and looked out, and when he saw the banner of the Qin army outside the city, he was stunned and asked Huang Jun: "What?" Today is the turn of the Qin army to attack the city? โ€

"Exactly." Huang Jun nodded and said: "Qin and South Korea change every five days, and the Korean army has been attacking the city for five days in succession, and today it is officially the turn of the Qin army to attack the city." โ€

Zhao Ju nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, since it is the turn of the Qin army to attack the city today, this battle will be handed over to Huang Jun to command, just defend the city normally, save arrows, and give the crossbowmen time to recover." In addition, divide the crossbows on the city wall into two batches, and use only half of them each time, so as to maintain the crossbows, and replace the parts of the crossbows in turn, so as to increase the use time of the crossbows. โ€

When Huang Jun heard this, he immediately responded: "The last general understands." โ€

Hearing this, Zhao Ju nodded and said, "Okay, there is Lao Huangjun on the city wall, and I will go to the city to inspect the trebuchet position." โ€

At the same time, after the Qin army set up the siege formation, many Qin army generals all looked at the city in front of them with heavy faces, even Sima Cuo, the chief general of the Qin army.

In the previous four days, the tragic offensive and defensive battles between Chu and South Korea, the huge casualties of the South Korean army, they all saw it, and now, it was their turn to attack the city.

"Siege!"

With Sima Cuo's order, the heavy-faced general immediately drove the soldiers who did not know the inside story to rush to the city wall.

As soon as the battle began, the charging Qin soldiers were unaware, but Sima Cuo, who was watching the battle from behind, was slightly stunned.

It seems that the number of strong crossbows in the Chu army is far less than yesterday's, and it seems to be about half less.

Just as he hesitated, the Qin army rushed into the range of Chencheng's bow and crossbow, and when the Chu army shot the arrows, Sima Cuo, who had been paying attention, showed a look of astonishment, and the number of arrows of the Chu people was not only less than yesterday, but even the frequency of shooting was less than yesterday.

This...

Is this aimed at the South Korean army?

Thinking about it, Sima Cuo's heart couldn't help but relax, and at the same time, he was a little happy...

At the same time, watching the battle not far from Sima Cuo, intending to watch the Qin army lively and find some balance for himself, when he saw the battle situation at the head of the city, he was immediately anxious and angry, and his whole face turned black.
