Chapter 435: The Battle of Jiangxia (4)

One way or another.

The battle doesn't stop because of something.

As the attacked side, unless the Qin army retreats, or the city is captured, the battle will not stop, even if Zhou Yu wants to stop fighting, it is best to have a chance.

Of course.

The idea is good, but the reality is cruel.

The Qin army, who rushed to the city, was still as always, struggling to climb the ladder, step by step, quickly climbing up to the city wall.

One fell, and another.

The ladder was knocked down, and in the blink of an eye, it was rebuilt on the wall, unless it had been smashed and could no longer be used.

And the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army on the city wall.

But there was no hand left, the archers kept shooting arrows, the spearmen took spears and put them between the wall and the ladder, and pushed the ladder outward, and the soldiers picked up the big stone that was placed on the passage of the city wall and threw it down.

Arrows rain down.

Both sides are unwilling to back down, and both are working hard for their own goals.

One side defends, one side attacks.

The side of the city wall is also like a Shura hell, from time to time there are soldiers falling, there are Jiangdong army, there are also Qin army, the original mottled city wall, also stained with bright red blood.

......

Outside the city.

In the camp of the Qin army.

Watch the battle on the edge of the city walls.

Qin Yin's face didn't change much, such a thing, after experiencing too much, it was difficult to cause any waves, and besides, such a scene, unless the world was peaceful, could always be seen.

Each for its own affairs.

The Tao is different, not conspiring with each other!

With different ideas, coupled with the current situation, such a thing is inevitable, and it will only end if one side falls.

Sun Quan is the emperor, and he does not obey the control of the imperial court, whether there is a grudge or not, there will be a conflict after all.

Not to mention.

The enemy in Qin Yin's heart, but he is still in Jiangdong, he has not forgotten what Yang Xiu has done, even if Sun Quan is not the emperor, just by taking Yang Xiu in, this reason is enough for him to make a move on Jiangdong.

And Sun Quan sheltered Yang Xiu, as well as Liu Biao, and also got Zuo Ci's support, which also expressed his attitude positively.

The battle has been going on until now.

The soldiers between the two sides also suffered certain casualties.

"Collect the troops, go back to the camp!" Qin Yin commanded.

From the beginning of the war, to the present.

He also saw the tenacity of the Jiangdong Army guarding Jiangxia, not an ordinary army, but the old department led by Zhou Yu, and its combat power should not be underestimated.

In this battle, many problems can also be seen.

It is not impossible to take Jiangxia in a battle, but it needs to be pressed by the whole army, and it is difficult to estimate how much loss there will be in the end.

Moreover, it is easy for the Jiangdong Army to have the idea of fighting to the death, and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no accidents.

That's not what he wanted.

Therefore, there is also the matter of shield soldiers covering archers to shoot arrows before.

As long as the idea that the Jiangdong Army intends to fight to the death is eliminated, it will be easier to attack than it is now, and the losses will be reduced.

Everything that should be done has been done, and the soldiers who are fighting in front of him have also suffered a certain amount of attrition, and the next thing is to wait for the fermentation of things and get the result he wants.

"No~!"

Guo Jia also responded.

Immediately, he also commanded to go down.

Qin Yin's plan, they are also clear, if the battle ahead is smooth, then it is not impossible to take advantage of the situation to seize Jiangxia, but if it does not go well, it will proceed according to the plan.

This was meant to be set.

Moreover, if they want to take down Jiangdong, it will not be able to do it in a while, it will take a certain amount of time, and they have already been prepared.

Forging, forging, forging ~~

With Qin Yin's order.

The stout soldiers who were originally beating the war drums to cheer and were shirtless also stopped beating the rhythm of the war drums.

Immediately, the soldiers standing next to the golden gong rang the golden gong.

Once, twice...

The sound of the beating of the golden gong also spread all around, very loud, and could be heard on the side of the city wall, which had all kinds of sounds and seemed to be very noisy.

Although it can't completely hide the movement of the battle there, it can still be clearly transmitted to everyone's ears.

The golden gong sounded, which was also a signal to withdraw from the army.

Zhao Yun and others, who led the troops to rush to the city and were attacking the city, also heard the sound of the golden gong.

After glancing at each other, they did not hesitate, leading the troops to retreat, without any entanglement, and they did not find the opportunity to break through, staying and continuing to fight, which only increased casualties.

Moreover, as the besieging side, the casualties will be much greater.

With a strategy and an arrangement, there is no need to engage in a war of attrition with the defenders of Jiangxia.

Wait for the siege troops and horses to withdraw.

Qin Yin glanced at the walls of Jiangxia City, then pulled the reins of his horse, led the army, and retreated towards the Qin army camp.

Taking Jiangxia City is a must, but there is no hurry.

And above the city walls.

When the besieging Qin troops retreated.

Zhou Yu also ordered to stop the attack, and there was no idea of not reluctantly.

And the resources to prepare to defend the city, such as the large stones placed on the passages of the city wall, and the arrows, all take time, and now they are fighting alone, so it is too wasteful there.

They didn't have any support.

The materials in the city are just what was left before.

Sun Quan was even ready to give up Jiangxia, but he would not have the idea of dispatching supplies to come.

Moreover, even if they continued to attack the evacuated Qin army, at most they would give the Qin army some trouble and increase some casualties, and it would not make the Qin army hurt their muscles and bones.

The Qin army retreated.

It also shows that they held Jiangxia City in this battle, and there is no need to be unforgiving.

At least he didn't have that in mind.

"Let the soldiers take turns to rest, pay attention to the movements of the Qin army, and there can be no slackness!" Zhou Yu commanded.

The battle stopped.

Then they can also make repairs, and they also need to count the casualties.

"No~!"

Cheng Pu and Huang Gai also responded.

They are veterans, and they have led troops for many years, and they have a lot of things, and they don't need Zhou Yu's instructions one by one to know what they are going to do.

And now is not the time to really relax.

After all, the Qin army has not really retreated, and it is still eyeing from the sidelines, and it can make a comeback at any time, so it must be prepared.

When Cheng Pu and Huang Gai turned to leave.

Lu Su and Zhuge Jin also walked towards Zhou Yu.

They have a thing.

Before, because he was in the middle of the battle, in order to avoid adding to Zhou Yu's troubles, he didn't come forward to disturb, but now that the battle has stopped, he has to deal with these things.

And this matter is also very important to them.
