Zhao Kuo's rhetorical question made Lu Fang not know how to answer, the Qin army that had been in the previous time was completely prepared at this time, and if he went out of the city to meet the enemy now, I was afraid that before he could enter the Qin army, he would be shot into a hedgehog by the crossbowmen of the Qin State.

Zhao Kuo patted him on the shoulder wordlessly: "It is only a matter of time before the Qin army crosses the Dan River, we just need to keep the Hyun clan impregnable." ”

Lu Fang nodded heavily, watching Qin Jun erect the pontoon bridge on the surface of the Dan River step by step.

What the general said was not wrong, just these people who were now in the Hyun clan could not stop the Qin army from crossing the river. In this case, guarding the Hyun clan is the biggest obstacle to the main force of the Qin army.

Wang Yi shook his head, he didn't expect that this time Zhao Jun would let them build the pontoon bridge so easily, which made him hesitate at this time.

It stands to reason that he should wait for all the Qin troops to arrive here before crossing the river together, but Fan Ju's secret letter still gave him a different idea.

Wang Ji hesitated for a while, but gave up the idea of crossing the river first. This unit under his command is the descendant of his own lineage, and they will be needed in the future, but they can't be consumed in the battle against the Hyun clan.

Soon Bai Qi led the army of Qin to the vicinity of Wang Di's troops, and seeing that the pontoon bridge was not built at the predetermined location, Bai Qi couldn't help frowning and called Wang Di over.

"General Wang, why didn't the pontoon bridge be built on top of the previously scheduled location? Do you know how much more work we need to work on in this position to lay down the Hyun clan? ”

Faced with Bai Qi's questioning, Wang Yi was unimpressed. In his opinion, as long as the more than 500,000 troops of the Qin State can cross the Dan River, the Hyun clan is just a thing in the bag, so why care where to build a pontoon bridge.

But thinking so in his heart, Wang Di can't say this, otherwise who knows what kind of move Bai Qi will make: "Report to the king, the construction of the pontoon bridge at the predetermined position was met with stubborn resistance from the Zhao army, and in order not to increase casualties, it can only be chosen in this position." ”

"Confused!"

Bai Qi's heart was like a mirror, and he naturally knew that Wang Di didn't want his subordinates to suffer casualties. But he can't say these things explicitly, so he can't behead his lieutenant in battle.

He only said a word, then stopped the matter, and said to the flag bearer: "Raise the flag, and the whole army will cross the river!" ”

The banner of the Qin character was set up high, and Bai still did not reveal his own plans, so Zhao Kuo thought that Wang Yu was leading the army to be a fool.

The 500,000 Qin army crossed the Dan River so easily, and the Zhao army garrisoned in the Hyun clan did not act rashly under the command of Zhao Kuo, and all the troops stood on the wall of the wall, nervously guarding against the attack of the Qin army.

The location chosen by Zhao Kuo for the Qin people was very beneficial to himself, and the foot of Hanwang Mountain and the Dan River sandwiched this terrain into a narrow strip, and even if the Qin people crossed the Dan River, it was impossible to fully unfold it.

Bai Qi swept the terrain here to know what Zhao Kuo had in mind, but he didn't take it to heart. The decisive place he chose for the decisive battle was not the east bank of the Dan River, and his strategic intention of annihilating the Zhao army could not be realized at all.

Since the Dan River had been crossed, the Zhao army did not make any move, and Bai Qi put down his mind and commanded the whole army to start the final attack on the Hyun clan.

Zhao Kuo stood on the city wall and watched the Qin army's array getting closer and closer to the Hyun clan, and suddenly had a trembling feeling, the decisive battle of the war in Changping was finally about to kick off, could he defeat Bai Qi?

Zhao Kuo shook his head, threw these messy thoughts out of his mind, and immediately opened the order: "Crossbowmen prepare, release arrows!" ”

The crossbowmen of Zhao State had long been carrying arrows only on crossbows, and at this time, after Zhao Kuo gave an order, they immediately shot at the Qin people who entered their attack range.

Of course, the crossbowmen of the Qin State were not to be outdone, although they fell behind the rear of the military formation, but their range was farther than that of the Zhao army, and they picked up the crossbow arrows to shoot at the Hyun clan.

Although the head was full of crossbow arrows flying from Zhao Guo, the Qin soldiers did not have any fear on their faces, and after the soldiers in front fell, the soldiers in the rear immediately picked up the cloud ladder and swore to kill the Zhao army stronghold in front of them.

For Zhao Kuo, the good news was naturally that the Qin people's rebellion was almost completely lost after experiencing the offensive and defensive battles of Changping Pass and the offensive and defensive battles of Guguan. The Qin people could only use the ladder to climb the towering walls of the Hyun clan and take the city.

Zhao Kuo did not let these soldiers under his command take turns this time, what they had to do was to nail them to the city wall and prevent the Qin army from taking a step forward.

The sound of war drums resounded throughout the sky, and the Qin army, cheered by the beating drums, sent a final attack on the Hyun clan without fear of death.

The elite soldiers of the Zhao State naturally would not let them succeed easily, and struggled to push down the ladder that the Qin army had probed.

The soldiers of the Qin army, who had already climbed half of them, fell to the ground along with the ladder in this way, and the soldiers who did not die were immediately trampled to death by the soldiers who rushed up from behind.

The Qin army did not seem to intend to give the Zhao army any respite, and with the advantage of numbers, they launched wave after wave of desperate attacks on the Hyun clan, leaving the Zhao army on the city wall exhausted.

"General, it's not good, a small group of Qin troops is attacking from the southeast." The scout ran over in a panic, delivering the worst news for Zhao Jun.

Zhao Kuo was in danger, commanded Lin Yi and said: "Lin Yi, you quickly bring a personal guard to support, be sure to plug the gap." ”

"Order."

Zhao Kuo arranged for Lin Yi to lead a personal guard force, which gathered the most elite group of Zhao Kuo's personal guard troops, and their purpose was to fill the gap and stifle the Qin people's attack.

After receiving the order, Lin Yi quickly led this small army to the southeast to support, at this time the Qin people had already fought with the Zhao army on the city wall, and there were more Qin troops under the cloud ladder about to rush to the city wall.

Seeing this, Lin Yi didn't care about the Qin soldiers who had already come up to the city wall, and immediately ordered his group of soldiers: "Don't care about these people first, immediately use the rolling stone to solve the enemy on the ladder first." ”

"No."

Lin Yi and his troops quickly came to the edge of the city wall, threw down the rolling stones prepared on the side of the city wall, and smashed all the Qin soldiers on the ladder.

"Hurry up, get a fork and a pole!" Lin Yi saw that the soldiers of the Qin State had already fallen, turned his head and immediately commanded.

"Commander, this ladder is too high, and the fork rod is afraid that it will be difficult to push the ladder down."

"I know, but I can't let the Qin people's ladder build here, it's too dangerous."

Lin Yi's soldiers placed the forked pole on the side of the city wall and stood on the edge of the city wall to prepare.

"Listen to me, you don't need to push the ladder down, as long as the ladder is cut off from the half-fork, the Qin people can't come up to the city wall. Fast, fast! ”

As soon as Lin Yi's order was issued, the soldiers under his command had already begun to insert the fork rod into the top of the ladder, and finally broke the wooden ladder after repeating the cycle, which was considered to have successfully guarded the gap.
