Chapter 432: The Battle of Jiangxia (1)

Next...

On the wall of Jiangxia City, the flags planted everywhere are still waving as usual, and the Jiangdong Army guarding the city wall is also the same as always.

It's just that the atmosphere has changed a lot.

A dignified, depressing, stormy atmosphere surrounds the city walls.

And Zhou Yu, Huang Gai, Cheng Pu, Zhuge Jin, Lu Su and others have also climbed on the city wall, standing in the center of the city wall, looking out of the city with solemn faces.

At this time.

Far outside the city.

A black army was thinking about approaching the city, and it was the Qin army that had been assembled and stationed outside the city a long time ago.

The Qin army, which was only stationed outside before, has not moved.

On the second day of Qin Yin's arrival, that is, now, there was finally action.

Although the Qin army camp is a certain distance from the city, it is not too far in comparison, only three miles away.

Standing on the city wall, you can see the camp of the Qin army, although it is a little vague, but you can still see it, such a distance is not far at all.

Soon.

In the solemn and nervous gaze of the Jiangdong Army.

The Qin army also came to the front of the city, and was arranging a formation, a phalanx, and then a phalanx, arranged in front of the city, showing the eyes of the Jiangdong army on the city wall.

The black flags were waving in the wind.

There are also handsome flags and flags embroidered with various words, which are clearly displayed in front of their eyes.

The 160,000 soldiers, lined up together, can give people a great shock in their eyes.

...

After the Qin army lined up the phalanx.

One of the people in the formation rode out on horseback, facing the city wall, and shouted: "Zhou Yu, Sun Quan is a Han minister, but now he is the emperor in Jiangdong and built the Wu State, he is really a chaotic minister and thief, and you are a loyal and righteous person, why do you do something to resist?" Why don't you open the city gates and surrender, and crusade against the rebels and thieves! ”

"Why don't Qin Yin say much, if you want to take Jiangxia, it depends on your ability!" Zhou Yu shouted.

And the person who shouted was Qin Yin.

Heard Zhou Yu's reply.

Qin Yin didn't care either, after all, this was something he had known for a long time.

If Zhou Yu really opened the city gate and made a gesture of surrender, then he still needed to take precautions, although he was not afraid of that, but a slight mistake could cause a great loss.

However, just attacking the city, he doesn't have too many ideas.

Besides, it is not easy to get Zhou Yu to surrender.

Without thinking too much, he waved his hand and said, "Beat the drum, attack the city!" ”

The voice fell.

Knock, knock, knock...

The drums of war were beating.

In the camp of the Qin army, there were several phalanxes that broke away, and Zhao Yun and other generals who followed him also came out of the camp, and with the soldiers of the Qin army who broke away from several phalanxes, they launched a charge against Jiangxia City.

"Kill~!"

The shouting of killing also sounded instantly.

"Shoot the arrow~!"

The Qin army, which was waiting for the charge, entered a certain range.

Above the city walls.

Zhou Yu also directly gave the order to counterattack, even if he couldn't prevent the Qin army from approaching the city wall, he was still able to consume the strength of the Qin army.

Of course, if you can stop it, that's the best.

The battle also began at this time.

And Qin Yin also rode back into the camp of the Qin army, looking at the war that started in front of him.

After all, he doesn't lead the army to attack the city, and he doesn't like to fight with people, which is what he has always done, plus he is the commander-in-chief, and there are Zhao Yun and other fierce generals, charging into battle Such a thing, there are not many towers, and there are many less of him.

And the morale is also very high, there is no need for him to increase the morale.

The battle begins.

In front of the city, arrows rained down.

Zhao Yun and other generals, who were also leading the charging Qin army soldiers, braved the rain of arrows to advance, and they were indomitable, like a torrent, rushing to the city wall.

Among the charging Qin soldiers, there were also various siege equipment.

If they didn't have siege equipment, they wouldn't be able to do anything, and the towering walls couldn't go up directly.

However, there were no siege vehicles.

Because in front of the Jiangxia City Gate, there is a moat around the city, and the siege vehicles cannot approach the city gate, even if they push the siege vehicles, they can't play any role.

Soon after the start of the war.

Between the two sides, there were some casualties.

At this time, the only one who can make an attack is the archer, and the archers on both sides have no mercy and shoot the arrows in their hands at each other.

You can see a dense rain of arrows, and you can not tell whether it is the enemy or your own in the air.

From time to time, a soldier fell with an arrow.

But this could not stop the actions of the soldiers on both sides.

The archers of the Jiangdong Army on the city wall kept shooting arrows in their hands, trying to stop the pace of the Qin army, at least delaying; And the soldiers of the Qin army who were charging were also advancing in the rain of arrows, and the archers in the charging queue were also running while shooting the arrows in their hands towards the city wall.

Although there was a dense rain of arrows, the soldiers of the Qin army still jumped over the moat and came under the city wall.

The soldiers of the Qin army carrying the siege ladder did not hesitate at all, and directly began to build the siege ladder and prepare to ascend the city.

And above the city walls.

After the Qin army rushed under the city walls.

It was no longer just the archers who shot arrows, but they all fought against the big stones that had been prepared on the passage of the city wall, and threw them down.

Time.

Arrows rained down.

It also caused a great obstacle to the soldiers of the Qin army who rushed to the city wall, but it did not make the soldiers of the Qin army give up climbing the city, and many soldiers climbed the siege ladder that had been built and climbed towards the city wall.

As long as you climb the city wall, you occupy a certain position.

The victory was theirs.

And the archers of the Qin army who rushed over were also organized under the city, using the rain of arrows to create opportunities for the Qin soldiers who climbed the ladder to climb the city.

Deal some damage to the Jiangdong Army on the city wall.

The Jiangdong army on the city wall will not be captured with their hands tied, and let the Qin army enter the city.

Under the command of Zhou Yu and others, they also made a counterattack in an orderly manner, preventing the Qin army from landing in the city, and there was no panic.

The 50,000 Jiangdong Army left in Jiangxia, but the old troops under Zhou Yu were originally under the command of Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and others were all Jiangdong's generals and had rich experience in leading the army.

It's not like there's chaos just because of a wave of attacks.

Besides, they have already decided to defend it, and they won't have any other messy thoughts, the only thing they want is to do their best to keep Jiangxia, that's all!
