Chapter 433: The Battle of Jiangxia (2)
Look at the situation in front of you.
Qin Yin didn't have too many waves in his heart.
If there is a war, there will be casualties, this is something that cannot be avoided, and it cannot be changed.
From the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Until now.
Again and again, I have long been unmoved, and if I don't have enough awareness, I won't choose this path.
The battle on the side of the city wall has also entered a white heat, both sides are unwilling to give up, and the soldiers are fighting hard.
Once the war starts, it's either you die or I die.
In the battlefield, there is no mercy.
"Bonghyo, prepare!" Qin Yin said.
"No!"
Guo Jia gave up.
Immediately, he turned around and went down to make arrangements.
Sometimes.
There were thousands of Qin army soldiers who came out of the Qin army camp, including archers with quivers on their backs and shield soldiers with shields in their hands.
And the thousands of Qin troops composed of archers and shield soldiers, separated from the Qin army camp, and walked not far from the front of the Qin army camp, lined up, with the shield soldiers in front, forming a shield array, while the archers stayed behind the shield soldiers.
After arranging.
Behind the shields, the protected archers drew arrows from the quiver on their backs, bent their bows and arrows, apparently preparing to shoot arrows at the city.
As usual.
This is not something strange.
However, Qin Yin would not do meaningless things.
"Shoot the arrow~!"
As the voice of one of the Qin generals commanding there fell.
Boom, boom, boom~~
The archers of the Qin army, who had already been prepared, did not hesitate at all, directly loosened the tightened bowstring, and shot the arrows in their hands, densely, forming a rain of arrows in mid-air, heading towards the city.
And these arrows were not just aimed at the Jiangdong Army on the city wall, but were thrown at random without a target.
It seems that the task of these Qin archers is only to shoot arrows into the city.
As for whether you can kill or injure the enemy, it doesn't matter.
Moreover, these archers of the Qin army, that is, a round of salvos, continued again, and there was a pause in between.
Such an act is not at all in line with the combat behavior of archers.
You must know that in general, in battle, the salvo of the archers should be round after round, and there is no pause in between, so that it can play the greatest role.
There is a pause in the middle, but the effect it plays will be weakened a lot.
But not far from the front of the Qin army's camp, the Qin archers, who were covered by shield soldiers, did not have such an idea, and simply shot arrows.
Directly all the archers, a salvo, and then continued.
Even the direction of the shot will change accordingly, to the left or right, and the place where it falls is also uneven, far and near.
However, they all fell within the city walls.
And such an act did not cause much suppression to the Jiangdong Army on the city wall, although there were certain casualties, but it was not big.
It's a little confusing.
Qin Yin, as well as Guo Jia and other strategists, looked at this situation and did not make any changes.
And this is the arrangement they made.
Look at the situation in front of you.
Qin Yin also narrowed his eyes.
He knew that if he wanted to take down Jiangxia in one go, it was not impossible, if he didn't care about the losses, he could still do it.
However, this is not in line with his ideas.
Moreover, Sun Quan doesn't know what he has, and it is the most appropriate thing to preserve his strength.
I want to preserve my strength and take down Jiangxia.
Then you need to make some planning.
And the actions of the archers not far from the front of the Qin army's camp were exactly the arrangements he had set.
Sun Quan did not send troops to support Zhou Yu, and Zhou Yu was not ready to give up Jiangxia, he would definitely defend to the death, and it was not a simple matter to take Jiangxia.
If you fight to the death with Zhou Yu.
Obviously, it is in line with Sun Quan's thoughts.
Although he didn't know what Sun Quan had in mind, he fought to the death with Zhou Yu, and no matter what the final result was, Sun Quan would benefit.
Zhou Yu died, and he took Jiangxia, there would also be a certain amount of consumption; Zhou Yu held Jiangxia, and he retreated, so there would not be much left of Zhou Yu's old department.
As for whether Zhou Yu will take refuge in him.
Sun Quan also obviously has a certain degree of self-confidence, and he will not think that such a situation will occur.
Therefore.
Sun Quan did this, and did not send soldiers and horses to support, and he also had a certain plan.
After all, he didn't think that Sun Quan didn't know what impact Jiangxia would have if it fell into his hands, and he would definitely continue to march into Jiangdong, but Sun Quan still didn't make a single move, and sat in the rear steadily.
If you don't have a plan, who will believe it?
It's just that Sun Quan has a plan.
Qin Yin couldn't think of it.
While Qin Yin was thinking about things.
The archers of the Qin army not far from the front of the camp also shot all the arrows in the quiver into the city, and there was no need to stay there without the arrows, so they retreated back with the shield soldiers who protected them.
Their task is to shoot the arrows prepared in the quiver.
As for the rest, we need to wait for the arrangement.
Their task is accomplished.
However, the battle ahead will not stop there.
The soldiers of the Qin army who rushed under the city wall were still struggling to climb the city, and even Zhao Yun and others also made a gesture of climbing the city.
It's just that the city wall is like a rain of arrows, and it is not easy to climb up the city wall from the cloud ladder.
Several times, they were halfway up and had to jump off to avoid the arrows.
Although he was not injured, he was still a little aggrieved.
The defense on the city wall, under the command of Zhou Yu, Cheng Pu and others, seemed to be a little leaky, and if they wanted to break through, they had no chance.
And once these generals climbed the ladder, they would be attacked violently and had to retreat.
Even if they all knew Qin Yin's plan and didn't think about taking Jiangxia City in a battle, if they had the opportunity to take Jiangxia City with a small loss, they would still not miss it.
Unfortunately, it didn't.
And now.
On their side, there were also certain losses, and the same was true for the enemy army.
Above the city walls.
Zhou Yu and others were also busy commanding the Jiangdong Army to guard the city and prevent the Qin army from landing the city, and they also saw the movements in the Qin army's camp.
I was a little puzzled for a while.
In particular, the arrows shot by the archers of the Qin army were aimless, looking as if they were practicing archery, which deepened their sense of doubt.
I don't know what the purpose of Qin Jun's behavior is.
If it was a rocket, it would be easy to say, but the arrow shot by the archers of the Qin army in the rear was not a rocket.
