The battle on the side of the Lishui defense line was the earliest, after all, the distance was closer, and the road was basically smooth. But on both sides of the lower reaches of Weishui, it was not until more than half an hour after the battle had begun on the Weishui side.

Fu Jian's men and horses, using more than 100 large and small ships provided by Yin Chi, directly killed them from the north bank of Weishui. Due to the limited number of ships, he had to concentrate a part of his forces, about 4,000 men, and rush over first, hoping to gain a foothold on the shore and then allow the rest of the large force to cross the shore smoothly.

The focus of his attack was on the north side of Fuxi County, where Fushui joins Weishui. The north shore was deep enough to accommodate larger boats, while the south shore was the opposite, with gentler water for landing.

Again, there is a reason why the other party chose this place. After all, after such a long confrontation, Fu Jian and the others already knew very well that the Huashan military defense line on the south bank of Weishui was basically centered on Fuxi County.

Moreover, once it really hits the shore here in Fuxi County, it will inevitably affect all the territory of the Huashan Army. After all, whether this place is going to Huayin or Zheng County, it is about the same distance, and it can play a great role in pulling back both places. Indirectly, it can support the soldiers and horses of Tongguan and the Qin on the side of the water defense line.

As soon as the battle began, Zhou Tong was already personally in battle, and there were 3,000 men and horses on this defensive line. In addition to his own third battalion, Li Xin mobilized Liu Xiaohai's tenth battalion and Liao Chuan's fifth battalion here, and they were unified under the command of Zhou Tong.

"The enemy is menacing, I'm afraid my eldest brother in the west has already started fighting, Tongguan there, it is said that the fight has already started yesterday. In a short period of time, we can't count on them, we have to rely on ourselves! Zhou Tong gathered a few people together and prepared to arrange the task.

"What is General Zhou going to do?" Liu Xiaohai asked.

"Although the enemy's main attack direction seems to be all here, we can't ignore other places either. Therefore, I have decided to personally stop the enemy here, Captain Liu, and you lead your 10th Battalion to the east to defend the bank of the river east of Fuxi County to the river. The men and horses of the 5th Battalion were lined up on the west side of our flank, and in addition to defending against possible attacks on the opposite bank, they were ready to join the battle here. As for Peng Lin, the section of the river bank in Zheng County will be handed over to you, and with your cavalry, you must patrol closely! Anyway, let's follow the plan! Zhou Tong briefly said what he thought in his heart.

"Okay, let's go down and make arrangements!" Several people didn't ask any more questions and quickly left.

Zhou Tong turned around and looked at the boats rushing over on the water as if they were covering the sky and the sun, and couldn't help frowning. After looking at it for a while, he strode towards the defensive line. For him, the pressure of defending this more than 100-mile-long river bank with 3,000 soldiers and horses is indeed not small, especially when the enemy is attacking on a large scale at this moment.

"Bang bang bang!" Soon, the first enemy ships were already within range of the trebuchet, and the Huashan army within the defense line immediately attacked. Stones flew over the heads of the soldiers of the Huashan Army, crossed a parabola and fell into the enemy formation.

Since it's not the first time I've operated this thing, the hit rate is not low, except for a few stones that fell directly into the water, the rest of the ones basically hit.

If it weren't for the fact that these stones weren't particularly large, I'm afraid that a single stone would have been able to sink a ship directly. But even so, because there were a lot of soldiers in each ship, although the ship was not sunk, many soldiers were directly hit.

"General, this time Fu Qin has brought some big ships, and our trebuchets are not as good as before. Moreover, these ships are covered with iron shields, and our bows and arrows are not very effective, so I am afraid that we will not be able to defeat them directly as before! After looking at it for a while, the team general next to him said to Zhou Tong with a worried look on his face.

"The Fu Qin army is not accustomed to water warfare, otherwise, we will be even more troublesome. Tell the brothers below to prepare for the enemy to go ashore, we can't keep the enemy out of the door all the time, and now it's time for them to see the strength of our real swords and guns! Zhou Tong naturally saw this scene, but the expression on his face did not change at all, and he just ordered lightly.

Standing on top of this watchtower, the entire line of defense can be seen clearly. The soldiers of Di Qin, while dodging the flying stones and arrows in the boat, kept shouting to increase their own momentum.

On the banks of the river, in addition to the sound of water, the most common sound is the sound of bowstrings and trebuchets. Even if the Huashan Army's trebuchet hit rate was quite high, the opponent's big ship was already getting closer and closer to the shore.

"Dong" was the first big ship close to the shore, and because the speed was too fast, the small part of it washed directly to the shore. Then, the front plank fell straight down and slammed into the ground. At this time, you can see that in the cabin, one by one, the Qin soldiers are holding their shields high, forming a protective wall, quickly rushing off the boat and stepping on the land on the shore.

Although the defense line of the Huashan Army was established on the shore, it did not mean that there was no gap outside the wall. After all, the banks of this river are flooded with strong waves, and when it rains heavily, the water rises, and once the protective wall is built too close to the water, it can easily be destroyed. But in this way, it just gave these Diqin soldiers a foothold.

When they disembarked, they were not used to it, but it didn't take long for them to start fighting towards the protective wall. The Huashan army on the wall also counterattacked at this time, and under the volley of arrows, even if these enemy soldiers had shields in their hands, many people were killed on the spot.

These protective walls of the Huashan Army are not city walls, and at such a long distance, if the city walls are really built, they will certainly become a solid line of defense, but the cost may be unimaginable. Therefore, the entire protective wall is basically formed by sharpening the end directly from thick hardwood and driving it deep into the ground. In a few places, there are walls made of stone and sand, but not many.

More and more Qin soldiers stepped on the shore, and the number of enemy troops landing outside the protective wall had reached hundreds by this time. These people had obviously been ordered, so as soon as they came ashore, they were all under the protection of the shield wall, and slowly advanced towards the protective wall.

"Kill! The first one to rush to the wall will be the first merit, and there will be a heavy reward! One of the enemy generals who came down first shouted at this time. Then, he led these Qin soldiers behind him and began to rush towards the wall.

Some of the other Di Qin soldiers, after getting off the ship, stayed in place, directly formed a formation, hid behind the shield, and began to fire arrows at the city, in order to provide support for the Di Qin soldiers attacking under the city.

All of a sudden, the shore of Weishui was also full of arrows flying sideways, although the Huashan Army stood on the protective wall more than three meters high, and had a certain geographical advantage, but at this time there were also casualties. And the Qin soldiers below had already advanced under the protective wall at this time, but their purpose was not to climb the protective wall directly.

They covered their heads with shields, and then began to slash the wood that formed the protective wall. Apparently, they wanted to use this method to open a path that would allow the army to go directly behind the wall.

"Get them out!" Zhou Tong saw this scene and gestured to the herald beside him.

At this time, under the wall, those Qin soldiers were struggling to destroy the protective wall.

"Hurry, hurry! As long as the gap is opened here, the Huashan army behind will not be able to stop us. The leader who took the lead, seeing the wood being split one by one, couldn't help but get excited, urging his subordinates to speed up.

Just as everyone was about to speed up, "Poof! A soft sound came from the side, which made the surrounding soldiers stunned for a moment, and immediately looked up. At this glance, they saw the general who had just spoken, and at this time a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth, and there was actually a spear stuck in his body.

"Kill!" Everyone was startled, and before they could react, they seemed to hear a thunderbolt ringing in their ears. Then, from the gap in the wall in front of him, suddenly a sharp spear stretched out. The Qin soldiers present were too close to each other, and they didn't have time to turn around and run away, and they were all dealt with on the spot.

And behind the protective wall, stood the soldiers of the Huashan Army with sneers on their faces.

"And want to destroy our walls, think beautifully! Let's go to the next place! The little captain at the head snorted coldly and said to the soldiers behind him. The group immediately ran ahead, but if they saw anyone outside the wall along the way who dared to break the wall, they would quietly shoot past.

It wasn't until the corpses were already lying on the ground under the protective wall that the Qin soldiers behind them found out what was going on. As a result, many people no longer dare to go near the protective wall. They thought that there would be no problem if they defended themselves overhead, but what they didn't expect was that the attack of the Huashan Army was simply impossible to prevent.

"Damn Huashan Army, rush over to me, you must climb to the top of the city!" Since there was no breakthrough under the wall, he had to follow the old rules and enter from the top of the wall. Fu Jian, who had just crossed the river, immediately ordered.

Soon, several ladders were lifted down from the ship, and they were covered by many Qin soldiers and approached under the wall. The soldiers of the Huashan Army standing on the wall could see clearly, only to see that this kind of ladder was different from the usual kind of ladder, but the kind of staircase with steps without a gap in the middle. With this ladder more than four meters long, as long as one end is placed on the ground and the other end rests on the wall, the Qin soldiers can continue to go up to the wall.
