The next day, the road to the Tongguan wall was already a smooth road, but the price to be paid was that the hoplites suffered more than half of the casualties, were overworked, and could not fight again.

The hoplites were unable to fight any longer, and they did not shake the determination of the beast king Caesar to capture Tongguan, he pointed at his long knife, and the orc foot soldiers held cloud ladders and attacked Tongguan like a tide.

After yesterday's battle, the orcs also learned a lot of experience, and did not rush directly. Instead, they chose to advance steadily, with the orcs in the front holding a shield in one hand and a ladder in the other, steadily approaching the city, followed by the orcs' crossbowmen, covering the attack of the soldiers in front.

The Qin army's catapults and crossbows were constantly firing stone projectiles and arrows as they were yesterday, but the orcs ignored the casualties and stared at the wall to move forward.

Finally, after paying huge casualties, the orcs sent the crossbowmen to the firing range, and the crossbows also began to draw their bows and shoot arrows, loading their bows and arrows, wanting to attack the Qin army above the tower.

But at this time, on the cliffs that towered into the sky on both sides of Tongguan, the drums beat loudly, the flags were unfurled, and the rolling wood, stones, oil cans, and rockets poured down, and the front of Tongguan Pass instantly became a purgatory. The corpses of the orc pawns were strewn and scattered, and the deaths were scattered everywhere. Some were stoned to death by rolling wood and stones, some were burned alive by the fire on the rockets splashed with oil from the oil tank, and some were affected by the orcs who fled in a hurry, causing damage to the fish in the pond.

Seeing that miserable scene, Caesar's nails of the beastmaster sank deep into the flesh, and he did not see it in person the previous defeat of the sailor. But this time, he saw his orc warriors slaughtered.

Caesar angrily pointed to the cliff and shouted, "Damn, damn, how can there be a Qin army on the cliff, how can there be a Qin army?" Can any of you tell me where they came from. Tongguan Mountain is so steep, how can they go up? ”

"My king is angry!" The generals around Caesar fell to their knees, and they did not dare to say much in the face of Caesar in anger.

"In the two days of attack, our army has lost seven or eight thousand men. But as for the enemy army, not a single person died, this is really a great shame, a great shame. Caesar looked at Brutus with angry eyes, and said angrily, "Brutus, as the general who guarded Luoyang, you came here to camp first, and you are very familiar with the enemy situation here.

Why, the general surnamed Bai who guards Tongguan still doesn't know, and the number of Tongguan defenders is still unknown, not to mention that the Qin army has buried ambushes on the mountain. You are convicted of such a great transgression! ”

"The last will be convicted! But the last general still has one more thing to say, my king wants to punish the crime, and I ask my king to let the last general finish. ”

"Tell me, it's your last word!"

"My lord, but you want to kill General Brutus?" Brutus' friend, Bakarin, the leader of the Greedy Wolf Cavalry, asked.

"How can you not kill the military plane if you delay it!"

"But......" Bakarin tried to continue, but was stopped by Brutus.

Brutus arched his hand and said, "My king, with all due respect. This Qin army, in addition to the few words that he got from Xianbei Hu and Lin Hua before, also learned from the 'order to kill Hu', saying that the Qin army was composed of the rebel army and the Guiyi army in Liangzhou. Mo Feng, the commander of the Qin army, is the son of Mo Yan and the favorite general of Zhao Wutang, the commander of the Guiyi Army. Being able to sit in the position of the commander of the Qin army was just Zhao Wutang in order not to expose himself.

That's all we know so far. Nothing else, is known. But among them, how much is false and how much is true, who can know! Therefore, the generals of the Qin army guarding the pass are even more unknown.

Since the last general came here, he has already sent spies and scouts to Tongguan to investigate. But the king also knows that the terrain of Tongguan is dangerous, and the scouts don't dare to get too close, for fear of being detected by the Qin army, it is really not easy to find out that there are 5,000 Qin troops above Tongguan. Not to mention, the Qin army still has soldiers and horses hidden on top of that high cliff.

However, just now when our army withdrew, the last general already knew how many soldiers and horses the Qin army already had in this Tongguan. 20,000, 20,000. Yesterday night, when the last general led people to carry sand and soil, he found that the Qin army had been rotated once, and the Qin army that had been replaced was also 5,000 people. Coupled with the men and horses on the high cliffs on both sides today, the final general made a rough calculation, a total of 20,000 people. ”

Listening to what Brutus said, Caesar, who was originally angry, also calmed down, yes, whether it was Tongguan or Qin Jun, they really didn't know anything. The current situation on the entire continent was caused by the Qin army, and he guessed it himself. They fought with their opponent for two days without knowing it. This, it's so stupid. Such a taboo in the soldiers, he really shouldn't have committed it.

"Get up! Capital sins can be forgiven, but living sins are unforgivable! From this day on, remove you from all military positions, demote you to an ordinary non-commissioned officer, and serve in the army. Although Caesar knew that he was wrong, he could never admit his mistake, otherwise, the wisdom of Caesar, the wise and martial beast king, would be ruined.

"Thank you for the grace of my king not to kill!" Brutus slammed his head three times. He knew that someone would definitely take responsibility for this defeat, and the only one who bore the brunt of this was Brutus. It didn't matter if he died, but if Caesar didn't realize that he knew nothing about their enemies, the dead orc brothers would have died in vain.

"Then what is the next strategy for the generals to break the enemy?"

The generals looked at it, how to fight this, on the high cliff, there were Qin troops still rolling wood, stones, oil cans, and rockets, and above the wall, the Qin army was still firing bows and crossbows, and the trebuchets were also constantly throwing stone bullets. With such a defense, how else can they attack it?

Bakarin arched his hand and said, "My king, why don't you do the same thing that you did with the Celestial Star Empire before, and coerce the people nearby and let them be used as meat shields. Perhaps, Tongguan can be captured. ”

"Reasonable!" "Reasonable!" "That's how it should be!" The generals chimed in.

Caesar's face became ugly, before the war, he repeatedly ordered that he should not use the people to attack the city. Now, isn't it a slap in the face to do this! What's more, this is far from his concept of governing the mainland in the future. If this door is opened, then it will be in vain for him to order Arcot to do it in Xuchang now.

"Don't hesitate any longer, my lord. Again and again, our army was defeated and demoralized. If there is no big victory to restore morale, I am afraid that defeat is not far away! ”

"Okay, that's it!" After thinking about it, Caesar still made a decision against his will. Looking at Tongguan, Caesar secretly swore in his heart that this was the last time he would use the people to attack the city.

Brutus still wants to say something, but his current identity is better not to say. It seems that when the time comes, we can only act at the opportunity.

On the top of Tongguan Pass, Yingbu, Lu Bu, Ma Chao, Zhang Xutuo, and the soldiers of the Left Army of the Fourth Army were all overjoyed, and they once again repelled another attack of the orcs without casualties.

"Yingbu, order the whole army to be on strict alert in case the orcs attack at night. also told Ran Min on the cliff not to be too presumptuous, if the orcs attacked the cliff, it would be a big deal. ”

"Yes!" Bai Qi's words were said very loudly, not only Yingbu heard it, but also Lu Bu, Ma Chao and others. Yes, they were facing orcs, the most warlike and brutal orcs on the continent. This battle has only just begun, and the vicious war and the big war are still to come, so there is no need for them to be so happy.

"General, how do you think Caesar will attack Tongguan next?"

"Or, coerce the people; Or, retreat in the face of difficulties, find another way, and take Pusaka. But I think it's more likely to coerce the people. Kasaka, it's not that the local people don't know that there is such a shoal where a pontoon bridge can be laid to cross the turbulent river. ”

"The general said this, and Wen He also agreed." Jia Xu flicked his fingers and sneered, "It's a pity, they miscalculated, and playing this with our Fourth Legion is really self-defeating." ”

In a few moments, the orc army gathered again under the Tongguan wall, but before the army, there were still many nearby villagers. The villagers, dressed in tatters, had their hands tied. Obviously, it was the orcs who drove them to death before the Tongguan Pass.

Caesar pointed his long knife forward and shouted "Attack!" ”

The orc soldiers then took the people and began to launch a new round of attack on Tongguan.

Bai Qi watched the orcs escort the people to attack the customs, his eyes were full of anger, these orcs really did such a thing of anger and resentment, it was really unreasonable. Such deeds will be avenged every day when he rises in vain.

Bai Qi raised his hand, listening to the scouts report the number of steps the orcs took from Guancheng, ready to give the order at any time to shoot the people and orcs below.

The people and the orcs got closer and closer, closer and closer, and Bai Qi's raised hand did not let go until the scouts shouted, "General, two hundred paces, and we are also exposed to the range of the orc crossbowmen." Bai Qicai put down his hand.

Seeing Bai Qi's order, the herald waved the order flag in his hand and gave the order. Suddenly, the bow and crossbow were closed and the catapult was fired; On the cliff, rolling logs, gravel, oil tanks, and rockets were all fired, and the narrow valley became a purgatory. Cries, cries for help, and wails have become the screams of sorrow in this purgatory.

The officers and men of the left army of the Fourth Army put down their crossbow arrows, and the soldiers of the right army on the cliff also stopped attacking. Looking at that purgatory, listening to the mournful screams of this purgatory created by their own hands, their eyes couldn't help but be moistened with tears.

At this time, a small group of orcs held a shield in one hand and a cloud ladder in the other, and finally held a war knife, leaning on both sides of the cliff, and slowly approached the Tongguan wall.

"Oh no, the orcs are up!" Jia Xu next to Bai Qisheng shouted.

"There are dead corners on both sides of the cliff, the effect of rolling wood and stone is very small, release the arrows, release the arrows quickly, the shot on the left wall is against the cliff on the right, and the shot on the right wall is against the cliff on the left, shoot them to death for me!" Bai Qi roared angrily, as if he wanted to take all his anger out on the orcs.

"No!" The soldiers listened to the order, and the bows and arrows and crossbows in their hands were fired in unison, and the angry arrows were fired towards the small group of orcs. In a few moments, the small group of orcs was wiped out.

Hidden at the end of the line, Brutus picked up the hedgehog-like orcs in front of him to block the arrows that were shot at him, and slowly retreated backwards. His goal had been achieved, and the weakness of the Qin army had been mastered by him. There is no point in going any further and sending him to death.

"General, one slipped away!" Jia Xu looked at the orc, his eyes full of murderous intent.

Bai nodded and replied, "I see." Maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, there will be a fierce battle. Yingbu, let the soldiers get ready! It's time for the orcs to see how powerful my Qin army is. ”。

"No!" Yingbu beside him arched his hand and went down to arrange.

Bai Qi looked up at the sky, and next, it was the real Shura field.
