When Fusu and Zhang Han confronted each other under Hangu Pass. The battle of Shangdang is also in full swing......

"Dangdangdang......" With a loud bronze sound, the blackshirts of Northern Xinjiang retreated from the ruined city wall of Shangdang like a tide, and after the crossbowmen were broken, they slowly withdrew to the camp.

"Phew!" The general Su Jiao spat fiercely on the ground, glanced at Shangdang City stupidly, and retreated with the army unhappily.

In the past seven days, the 150,000 blackshirt army and Li Xin's 50,000 army stormed Shangdang, although they tried their best, they still failed to break through the strong county town of Shangdang, but instead killed and wounded more than 20,000 people, this result could not help but make the generals of the New Qin Army a little depressed!

In the tent, the generals of the new Qin army are strongly 'greeting' the immediate family members of the party who are too guarded!

"his mother, is Zhao Gao's eunuch the father or grandfather of Zhou Xuan, working so hard for him!" One of the lieutenants said indignantly. "Yes, yes, this bastard is so desperate, when we break through Shangdang City, he must look good! Since he is so enthusiastic with Zhao Gao's eunuch, why don't we castrate him first, and then hang him!" Another lieutenant chimed in......

For a while, there was a lot of scolding in the tent. All the generals are in the army, they don't know a few big characters, and most of them are bloody rough people, so how can they talk about the enemy!

Meng Yi also had a headache when he heard it, waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay!" Don't scold, no matter how much you scold, you won't be scolded to death! That Zhou Xuan can't really be regarded as a party of eunuchs, and his political performance in the party on weekdays is not bad, but his family is in Zhao's master, so he has to do it!"

Seeing that Meng Yi had spoken, the generals stopped scolding abruptly.

"General Li, our army has stormed Shangdang for seven days and it can't work, do you think there is any other way?" Meng Yi frowned.

Li Xin was also a little depressed, originally thought that the more than 200,000 troops would attack the Shangdang, but he didn't expect the resistance to be so fierce. After thinking about it, he said: "Shangdang is not as good as Taiyuan, and Taiyuan City is the first Xiongguan after Yanmen Pass." Guarding the key road and defending the Central Plains, it is difficult to fight; And Shangdang is just an ordinary county town, no matter how strong I think, as long as I wait for a few more days to attack, Zhou Xuan will definitely not be able to hold on. ”

Su Jiao nodded and said indignantly: "What General Li said is that the last general doesn't believe that Zhou Xuan can hold out for a few days!" Damn, Zhou Xuan recognized that my Northern Xinjiang Army was good at field warfare and not good at siege warfare, so he couldn't defend it, if he dared to fight. Lao Tzu beat him with 10,000 and 30,000, and he can also beat him down!"

Shima was also a little depressed and said, "Yes! Just watching these soldiers who survived the bloody battle with the Huns fall one by one under the Shangdang City, the last general really didn't feel a good feeling. That Zhou Xuan only knows the safety of his family and disregards the righteousness of the country, which is not a good thing!"

Meng Yi sighed, knowing that the generals didn't have any good ideas. It's no wonder: no matter how you tease and seduce you, you just can't come out, what can you do!

Suddenly, Li Xin asked, "General Meng, is there no news from Li Liang at Hukou?" Meng Yi shook his head and said, "No." I don't know if the secret envoy sent by His Majesty has arrived! I don't know if Li Liang will descend! Wait and see!"

When the generals were in a dull state, suddenly a scolder rushed to the tent and said, "General Meng, General Li." The villain's sentry just now discovered that a team of about 1,000 people was heading towards our army camp ten miles to the northeast. There's a lot of weird stuff wrapped up in the team!"

"Oh——!" Meng Yi was stunned and asked, "Northeast?" It was definitely not the puppet Qin army of the Shangdang, they were all surrounded in the city and could not be retracted! Have you ever seen who it is?" He replied, "It's all cloth, not armor." There are also no flags, not like an army. But all of them are powerful, wearing long swords at their waists, and they don't look like ordinary people! I really don't know what it is!"

When they heard this, they were very puzzled: This soldier is not like a soldier. What do the people do when they come to the battlefield like the people? Tired of living? Looking for death?

Meng Yi suddenly thought about it, and suddenly stood up and said: "Pick up three thousand elite horses, and the generals will follow me out of the battle to see where this is sacred!" Whoa!"

Under the hazy sunset, the main camp of the new Qin army in the north, Dongzhai Gate, was wide open, and three thousand elite horsemen with heavy halberds rushed out and lined up in formation. Meng Yi and Li Xin were in front of the battle.

In a few moments, with a strange creaking and tingling sound, the strange team of the rebuke appeared in the eastern sky. Under the golden sunset, although the wind was cold, the generals were a little dazed: what the reprimands said was true!

Seeing the three thousand iron horsemen in front of the New Qin Army Village, this strange team suddenly stopped as if it was afraid of a misunderstanding, and then a horse galloped out of the team and went straight to the New Qin Army.

"Which one is General Li Xin, General Meng Yi?" The visitor smiled and arched his hand.

Li Xin wondered, looked at Meng Yi, and the two replied: "The two of us are!" Who are you? Don't you know this is a battlefield!?"

The visitor laughed and said, "If it's not for the battlefield, I'm not coming!" In the lower ink class, the leader of the ink gate branch, the ink craftsman!"

"Uh-huh——!" Meng Yi was taken aback: "Momen! Isn't that an organization that is specifically against my Qin Army!?" As soon as his face changed, he had to turn his face. Li Xin laughed and greeted him: "Hello, hello!" I've heard the name of Momen for a long time, and today I can open my eyes!"

Meng Yi was stunned, and the generals of the Qin army were also stunned: Which play is this General Li singing? So intimate with this ink class!

Meng Yi sank his face and said, "General Li, what do you mean by this?" Don't you know that this Momen is my Qin army's nemesis!?" Li Xin smiled: "Don't you know!? No wonder, no wonder, you have always been in Northern Xinjiang, but all the senior generals in Southern Xinjiang know: In fact, Momen is his own people!" Moban smiled but said nothing.

"My own people!?" Meng Yi and everyone were stunned! That expression was similar to the expressions of the generals in southern Xinjiang at that time when they heard that Fusu was the 'big man' of Momen.

"Yes, yes! Our Majesty is actually the 'Juzi' of Momen!Mr. Mo, you are here to help this time on the orders of Your Majesty, right!?" Li Xin said with a smile.

"Exactly, we are here to help on the orders of His Majesty!" Moban said respectfully.

At this time, Meng Yi and the others suddenly crashed, and they were dumbfounded. After a long time, Meng Yi stammered a little: "Brother Li, you, you said that Your Majesty is the 'Juzi' of Mo and Momen, I, I heard it right!?" The rest of the generals have relatives in front of each other!

Li Xin laughed and said, "Of course, that's right. That's right! Okay, it's too cold outside, let's go settle down first, and Mr. Mo and I will tell you in detail!" Meng Yi was stunned, as if he couldn't digest this shocking news for a while.

Li Xin smiled: "General Meng won't believe me, right!?" No, of course not! Please come in, come on, let go!" Meng Yi is confused, and the generals are also foggy.

Moban beckoned behind him, and a thousand inksmiths entered the camp with the new Qin army.

After settling a thousand inksmiths. Li Xin and the generals accompanied Moban and returned to the tent together. Then, the generals stared at Li Xin and Mo Ban in a daze. Meng Yi said a little anxiously: "Brother Li, tell me quickly, what the hell is going on?" I'm stupid today!"

Li Xin smiled: "I also listened to His Majesty himself, and I will explain it to you in detail!" As he spoke, he told the generals Meng Yi about the experience that Fusu had told before.

Meng Yi's mouths grew wider and wider, and his eyes were about to pop out in shock, as if he was listening to the Arabian Nights. After a long time, after Li Xin finished speaking, Meng Yi and the others have not recovered from this strange and exciting story!

"Ahem! Ahem!" Li Xin coughed twice. Smiled: "Got it!?" When we first heard this amazing story, our reaction was similar to yours——!" This trill dragged on for a long time. Somewhat flirtatious!

"Incredible! Incredible!" Meng Yi said two 'incredible' words in a row, and his face was incomprehensible. "There are such miracles in the heavens. Your Majesty is truly a god!"

Shibuma, a veteran in his fifties, also said stupidly: "It's amazing! If General Li hadn't said it seriously, I would have thought I was listening to the story!"

Su Jiao smacked his lips and suddenly became happy: "No wonder Momen hasn't been mischievous all these years, it turned out that he was recruited by His Majesty!" Just now. The family almost got into a fight, so dangerous, so dangerous!"

"Hahaha......" Everyone finally came back to their senses and laughed together.

Mo Ban smiled at this time: "General Meng." Didn't Your Majesty say hello to you beforehand when we arrived!?" Meng Yi said a little stupidly: "Yes, but I only said that there is a strange soldier who will come to help!" But I wouldn't have thought it was you! Your Majesty has scared us a lot this time!" The generals laughed again.

Li Xinle said: "Shangdang City is high and wide, we can't do anything about it for a while, but the Momen equipment is famous all over the world, presumably Mr. Mo has a way to deal with it!"

Moban smiled: "That's what we came to do!" Give us three days, we can use the tools at hand to build a batch of new siege equipment that you have never seen, and in two days, no, maybe you can easily take down the Shangdang in one day! Of course, we have few people, and we still need the cooperation of your baggage soldiers!"

Meng Yi was overjoyed and said: "Great, I will immediately explain to the sergeants that I will do my best to help Mr. build siege equipment!" Su Jiao smiled: "Guess what, when the sergeants heard that Momen was actually their own, would they react more intelligently than us?"

"It's hard to say, it's hard to say!" The crowd laughed.

Hukou Pass, one of the eight Xiongguan passes of Taihang Mountain, is an important gateway connecting Shanxi and Hebei, and is now guarded by Li Liang, the general of Zhao Guoda.

After Li Liang, the old Zhao nobles, Wuchen and others raised troops in Zhao Di, they responded with the rebels and made great contributions to the capture of Zhao by Wuchen, and Wuchen established himself as the queen of Zhao and worshiped as a general!

It stands to reason that Li Liang has a high position in the Zhao State, and he should be majestic and happy, but it is a pity that since he arrived at Huguan, in the face of the powerful military might of the New Qin Army, Li Liang can no longer be happy. Especially after learning that Chen Yu's 100,000 troops were wiped out by Meng Tian's 30,000 troops three days ago, Li Liang felt even more panicked.

Under such circumstances, let alone let Li Liang go out of the pass to drag the back legs of the new Qin army, even Li Liang, who was hiding in the fortified city of Huguan, felt that it was difficult to sleep, but he was afraid that the 50,000 new Qin troops under the pass would take advantage of the situation to attack the city.

On this day, Li Liang patrolled the city in Guanzhong as usual, for fear that the city defense would be lost and his life would be in danger.

Suddenly, a sergeant came to report to Li Liang: "General, there is a person in the city who claims to be a messenger of the New Qin Army, and he has something important to ask to see the general!" Oh!" Li Liang was a little uneasy: "It won't be an ultimatum, right!?" Could it be that the party has already fallen!?" After thinking about it, he didn't dare not see it, so he nodded and said, "Open the city gate and take him to the General's Mansion to see me!" Whoa!" The sergeant answered.

Li Liang just returned to the house and sat down. Two soldiers led a middle-aged man into the hall. Li Liang looked at the middle-aged man: about four sentences old, although his cheeks were thin, his eyes were bright, and he was tall and slender, and he looked a little generous.

"I am Li Liang, the general of Zhao State, your envoy is here, what do you have to say?" Although Li Liang was uneasy in his heart, he couldn't see anything on his face.

The Qin envoy gave a salute and said with a smile: "I am the envoy sent by His Majesty the New Qin Emperor: He Jiong, the current staff member in the army!" I am here to say a few words to the general on the orders of His Majesty!"

Li Liang was taken aback: "Fusu sent it directly." I don't know why!" Said quietly: "Messenger, please take a seat, if you have something to say, just speak!" He Jiong thanked him, and then sat down under Li Liang, and the sergeant offered tea and retreated.

He Jiong looked left and right, and was a little embarrassed: "General, I'm afraid it's inconvenient to say something on this occasion!" Li Liang's heart moved, and he said with a smile: "You don't have to worry, these personal soldiers are all from my private soldiers, and their loyalty is absolutely reliable!"

"Good!" He Jiong nodded, and came straight in: "Your Majesty my lord heard of the general's name. I love it very much, and the special envoy came to recruit the general! I wonder if the general intends to?" Li Liang was stunned when he heard this, and then laughed and said, "Hahaha." I am the general of Zhao Guoda, and I am in a high position. And he is deeply favored by King Zhao, and his life is very happy, it seems that there is no reason to surrender to your new Qin!"

He Jiong also laughed and said, "Why should the general bully me!" Li Liang was stunned: "What do you mean by what your envoy said?"

He Jiong said: "The general's position is high and powerful in the Zhao country, I'm afraid it may not be. Wu Chen, Chen Yu, and Zhang Er are not Zhao people. They raised troops in Zhao Di, and they have Zhao State, I'm afraid that the nobles of Zhao Di will be more or less dissatisfied!? The three Wuchen must also understand this, but the general is an old nobleman of Zhao State. I'm afraid that the three Wuchen will not guard against the general! In terms of past merits, the general's merits are by no means worse than Chen Yu and Zhang Er, and may even be a little stronger, but after the military ministers established themselves as the queen of Zhao, they still established Chen Yu and Zhang Er as the left and right prime ministers, and their powers were above the generals. Moreover, General Li is a general, but he cannot control the main military power, and the elite soldiers in the country are basically controlled by Wu Chen, Chen Yu, and Zhang Er. How can such a situation be called high and powerful!?"

Li Liang was tickled by He Jiong, and he was a little angry for a while, and said with a forced smile: "What your envoy said is false!" Chen and Zhang, the two prime ministers, were the first to raise troops with the king, loyal and diligent, and I am just a backward person, and it is not a strange thing that the position and power are not as good as the two prime ministers. The king treats me well, and sometimes he is rewarded!"

He Jiong smiled again: "General Li said that King Zhao is not thin on the general, but I don't think it may be. I once heard about one thing; Once, when General Li entered Handan, he suddenly saw Zhao Wang Luan driving, and the general immediately avoided the side of the road, bowed to the ground, and shouted salute. But who knew that it was not Wuchen himself who sat on King Zhao's car, but his sister, Mrs. An Yi! I heard that this Mrs. Anyi didn't even look at the general at that time, so she walked straight away, which was really rude. Isn't it ashamed that a general's dignified man was insulted by a woman! Later, when Wu Chen heard about this, he didn't blame Mrs. An Yi at all. It can be seen that Wuchen really doesn't take the general in his eyes, but he just sees that the general can appease the nobles of Zhao and is reluctantly useful. How can such a king have any kindness to General Lee!?"

"Hmph, this!" Li Liang's face also changed drastically, and he scolded. Li Liang's humiliation by Mrs. An Yi has always been a heart disease in Li Liang's heart, and he was haunted by it, but at this time, he was aroused by He Jiong, and he suddenly lost his calm!

He Jiong was secretly overjoyed when he saw this, and said with a smile: "It can be seen that in fact, the military ministers don't value the general, let alone have any kindness!" And my lord is wise and martial, the lord of the world, currently has millions of troops, and most of the land in the world is in hand, and just now in the well to break Chen Yu, it can be seen that sooner or later the world will be obtained by my lord. How can a person like Wu Chen, who has a small belly and a weak heart, be my main opponent!? As the saying goes: A good bird chooses a tree to perch, and a virtuous minister chooses the lord to serve, can't you see which road is bright with the wisdom of a general!?"

Li Liang was moved when he heard this, in fact, Li Liang didn't have any ambitions, he just wanted to be able to be a 10,000 household marquis in peace and stability, but now seeing Chen Yu's death, the strength of the military ministers has been reduced by half, it doesn't seem to be good, and he suddenly wavered. So, with some hesitation, he said, "Then your lord wants to surrender to me." How are you going to treat each other?"

He Jiong was overjoyed, almost smiled crookedly in his heart, and hurriedly said: "As long as General Li is willing to lead the army to surrender, Your Majesty promises: immediately crown General Li as the general who protects the country, the Marquis of Julu, and eats five thousand." In the future, if we can respond to our army to capture Zhaodi, we will be rewarded for meritorious deeds! In addition, His Majesty also asked the envoy to bring a pair of white bi and ten night pearls, all of which are the world's most treasures, please smile at the general!"

said. He Zhi took out a brocade box from behind him, put it on the table, opened it, and suddenly the white light on the table soared, and there were thousands of rui qi, as if he was in a fairyland!

It seems that Fusu has a lot of money.

The so-called wealth is moving, and Li Liang was suddenly dazzled. Xin said: "As the Qin envoy said, the military minister only treats me as a useful hound, and there is no kindness. Especially when his sister humiliated me, Wu Chen did not blame me. It shows its unkindness even more. Now, Chen Yu is dead, and so is the army of 100,000. Meng Tiantun's soldiers may go south at any time, and Wuchen is already in danger. It's better to take advantage of the situation to surrender Qin. You can also fight for wealth. Otherwise, soon the party will fall, and Meng Yi and Meng Tian will be caught in the pot before and after, will I have to accompany Wuchen to finish it together!? It's down!"

So, Li Liang sat down. He Jiong gave a salute and said with a smile: "Thank you Mr. for your advice, otherwise Li Liang would almost make a mistake!" Please return to Your Majesty, Li Liang sincerely surrenders. Never lose each other!"

He Jiong was overjoyed and said: "Great, the general knows the current affairs as Junjie, this is His Majesty's edict, please take it!" As he spoke, he took out the Divine Decree. Li Liang hurriedly knelt down, shouted three times long live, and respectfully accepted the holy decree.

After getting up, Li Liang smiled and said: "Now that we are a family, what should Li Liang do at present, please ask Mr. for guidance!" He Jiong said: "At present, the battle of Shangdang is not over, you are not busy changing banners, and you are still playing the banner of Zhao Jun for the time being!" When the battle of Shangdang is over, General Meng Yi will definitely wave his army, and then you will raise troops again to guide our army to capture Zhaodi. Of course, during this period of time, you have to clear out some of the generals and confidants, but is there a problem?"

"No, no! Most of them are my henchmen in this army, and there are few loyal military ministers, so I will arrange for them to be eliminated immediately! Mr. has worked hard from afar, it is better to rest in the house for a few days for the time being, and let Li do his best as a landlord!" Li Liang was relieved this time.

"No need, in order to avoid leaking the news, I'd better leave earlier! In addition, I also received a notice from General Meng Yi's army, they must be in a hurry!" He Jiong didn't dare to stay too long.

"Okay, then I'll arrange for my henchmen to send Mr. to battle! Come on, prepare the passage and fast horse for Mr., and send him out of the city!" Li Liang shouted.

"Whoa!" A pro-soldier answered, so he went to He Jiong to prepare.

At that moment, Li Liang quietly sent He Jiong out of the city and arranged it back to Hukou Guanzhong.

Outside Shangdang City, the main camp of the new Qin army in the north.

The camp was full of loud sawing and splitting wood, and groups of craftsmen of the New Qin Army were rushing to make siege equipment under the guidance of the inksmiths. Many siege equipment looked strange and strange, and many of them were seen for the first time by the New Qin Army. For a while, there were a lot of strange-looking soldiers around. Even Li Xin, Meng Yi and others watched the excitement on the sidelines, studied and observed!

Just when Moban was explaining a kind of equipment called 'tuk' to General Li Xinzhu, a personal soldier came to report: "Generals, there are more than a dozen people outside the door who claim to be His Majesty's secret envoys, holding tokens, and asking to see General Li and General Meng!"

"Oh! What's the name of the person?" Li Xin asked.

"Call yourself He Jiong!" The pro-soldier replied.

"Oh, I remember, he is one of His Majesty's military staff, please come in!" Li Xin said with a smile.

"I don't know what's going on, I hope it's a good thing!" Meng Yi said with a smile.

After a while, He Jiong arrived, and He Jiong hurriedly saluted: "He Jiong has seen General Li, General Meng, and all the generals!" Li Xin smiled and said, "Sir, you don't need to be polite, but Your Majesty sent you, what's the matter?"

He Jiong smiled and said: "It was sent by His Majesty to order me to go to Huguan to persuade Li Liang to surrender to me!"

Li Xin came to his senses and said: "Oh, it turns out that the envoy who surrendered was you, so did Li Liang surrender?" I have surrendered, and I have come to inform the generals!" He Jiong is quite complacent.

Meng Yi breathed a sigh of relief: he could finally attack the party with all his might with peace of mind, but he was a little puzzled: "Sir, does it seem that he has been late for many days, when I was in Taiyuan, I heard that His Majesty had arranged for someone to surrender!"

He Jiong was a little embarrassed and said: "This is a mistake in the next step!" Originally, this should have been done ten days ago, but because he was in a hurry for several days, he suffered from the wind and cold, and fell ill in Keiguan, and he lay down for six or seven days. And the Taihang Mountains are now covered with heavy snow. The road is difficult to travel, and the back and forth has been delayed for a few days, so it has been delayed so far! However, just waiting for the news of Jing Cheng's victory, this made me persuade Li Liang to save a lot of tongues, it could be the will of heaven!"

Li Xin smiled: "I see, fortunately, I was in time and there was no mistake!" Come on, everyone, let's take a toast to this good news!" Let's go!" The crowd was also overjoyed and embraced each other.

Early morning. The sky, which had not snowed for several days, suddenly snowflakes fell again, but the cold wind seemed to suddenly subside, and the sky was just snow-white crystals. On the ground, in the blink of an eye, a layer of snow was covered again.

"Knock knock ......" as if this snow day was not sad and solemn enough, and the war drums suddenly sounded in the wilderness of Shangdang Land, relying on a tragic and desolate atmosphere.

"Qin Feng! Qin Feng! Qin Feng!" An impassioned sound of military trumpets was heard, and a group of Qin troops appeared in the sky, slowly pressing towards the party with heavy and solid steps. In the ranks, a large number of strangely shaped siege equipment slowly drove to the party with the army.

"Uh-huh-" A loud horn sounded, and the defenders of Shangdang City quickly ascended the city. Be on alert.

The vast army of the New Qin Army drove to the foot of Shangdang City, and slowly stayed about five hundred paces away.

This time, the new Qin army listed three military formations in the front, middle, and rear on each side. Each formation was 10,000 men, including 3,000 crossbowmen and 7,000 men of short arms. 120,000 in total. Behind the battle, there were also a huge long-range force of about 400 crossbows and 200 trebuchets, all of which were powerful versions of the newly created land by the hands of Momen and using stainless steel technology.

As another solemn battle drum sounded into the wilderness, the front of the New Qin army in four directions was ready to attack. Meanwhile. Behind the battle, Li Xin gave an order, and all long-range weapons began to fire: in an instant, the machine spring collapsed, and the bowstring clanged. In the snow-colored sky, there was a flash of firelight, and one after another, long or round fire meteors, rose in the air, making a creepy scream, piercing the void, and heading straight for the head of Shangdang City.

"What a spectacular sight, such a powerful attack!" The new Qin soldiers looked up at the sky and were in a surging mood!

The giant bolts of fire were the first to reach the head of the city with a piercing whistling sound, and they met their target headlong: the solid battlements suddenly crumbled, and the fiery red arrows in the rocks that flew all over the sky roared like sneering demons, stirring up a crimson color; The seemingly impregnable arrow towers and lookout posts made a tooth-aching trembling sound under the violent impact, and in the midst of the debris, the flames immediately burst into flames, and the poor defenders above were engulfed in flames in an instant.

The more destructive oil bombs and flints covered with weeds in the oil-soaked ground then arrived, and the head of Shangdang City was immediately even more devastated: the terrible fire oil bombs splashed down and immediately burst into flames, igniting everything that could ignite the ground—wood, weapons, city defense equipment, and even the clothes of the soldiers...... The destructive power of the flint, which weighed nearly thirty pounds, was even more astonishing, and the huge city wall was littered with stones under the violent impact, revealing huge deep pits, and the walls were shaking violently like an old woman swinging; As for the fragile arrow towers and lookout posts, where the flint passed, they immediately cracked, and the broken wooden blocks flew in all directions, mixed with the screams of the guards as they fell from a height.

All of a sudden, the head of Shangdang City was covered in blood and fire. The poor defenders were so frightened by the unprecedented fire that they were so frightened that they ran around with their heads in their hands.

"Knock knock knock knock......" At the sound of another war drum, the front soldiers of the New Qin Army, which had been prepared on all sides of Shangdang, immediately rushed to 250 steps below the city in heavy armor, and then raised their crossbows in turn and attacked fiercely towards the head of the city.

In an instant, thousands of arrows were fired from the city, adding more fire to the already chaotic city. The screams came and went, and I don't know how many souls were added!

It's a pity that the defenders, suppressed by the powerful long-range weapons of the new Qin army, have no power to fight back for a while, and can only be beaten.

Slowly, the new Qin army behind the formation was tired of firing giant arrows, flints, etc., and the speed gradually slowed down. Seeing that the time was almost up, another battle drum sounded behind the new Qin army's formation, and heavy crossbows and trebuchets were immediately launched and began to rest.

The time for infantry hand-to-hand combat came: the 28,000 warriors in the front of the New Qin Army shouted and pushed all kinds of siege equipment to begin to storm the four cities.

The first wave of surprises were the 'wheelbarrows' of thousands of perched single-wheeled carts: they were laden with dirt and had a high-pitched baffle behind them to protect the soldiers on the carts from arrows. "Seize the ......" braved the desperate attacks of the defenders, but still sparsely pulled arrows, and the wheelbarrow rushed to the edge of the trench. Three down five divided by two to fill in the multiple sections of trenches into flat ground.

The second wave arrived at the 'bridge cart': a flat-ground four-wheeled vehicle with a tall, wide wooden plank tilted slightly backwards at the front, and a raised baffle at the rear to protect the soldiers pushing it from arrows. The 'bridge cart' followed and rushed to the edge of the trench, stopping next to the unfilled lot, and as soon as the soldiers of the new Qin army pressed the simple mechanism, the heavy wooden plank at the front end of the 'bridge cart' suddenly fell forward and landed heavily on the opposite side of the trench, and the baffle protecting the soldiers also fell backwards, and in the blink of an eye, hundreds of simple temporary bridges were built on the trench.

The lot filled by the 'wheelbarrow' can pass through large siege equipment, and the land built by the 'bridge cart' can pass a large number of soldiers. The two are more special, that's all.

The siege equipment that followed was more varied:

There was a four-wheeled cart with a huge right-angled triangular ladder-like 'cloud cart' on top of it, which allowed the soldiers to quickly approach the city.

There is a four-wheeled cart bottom, and there is a 'Xuanyuan chariot' with a hut covered with cowhide and iron sheets on the tall support, so that the soldiers in the house can safely and directly approach the city and climb the city in hand-to-hand combat.

There is a four-wheeled cart bottom, and a strong arrow tower is built on the elevated above, which can be higher than the city wall and launch a fierce arrow attack.

There are four-wheeled bottoms. On the elevated elevated top, there was a 'dragon cart' with a sturdy hut, and this small house near the head of the city had four dragon mouths, which were operated by eight soldiers. Burning oil can be sprayed onto the castle to burn enemy troops.

There are even 'poisonous dragon carts' that are close to the city walls and throw smoke bombs indiscriminately. It is guaranteed to smoke so that you have a snot and can't distinguish between east and west, north and south.

There are countless other cars, such as rushing cars, crashing cars, mallet cars, fire leaf cars, and thunderbolt cars......

For a time, countless strange siege equipment gathered under the city of Shangdang assisted the soldiers of the New Qin Army to attack the city head.

Shangdang City originally had 30,000 defenders, and there was a seven-day onslaught by the new Qin army in front. More than 10,000 losses. Less than 20,000 soldiers lost nearly half of them under the fierce long-range fire attack of the New Qin Army for most of the hour, and now they were besieged and attacked by so many strange siege equipment by the New Qin Army. The new Qin army landed on the city from all directions.

Fierce hand-to-hand combat suddenly began, and the new Qin army fought fiercely for control with the defenders at the head of the city, and the head of the Shangdang city was even more chaotic for a while.

Li Xin and Meng Yi were overjoyed when they saw this under the city, they were originally going to climb the city, but they always had to suffer heavy casualties, but now they attacked it without much effort, and quickly struck while the iron was hot, and they rushed to the middle and rear two formations of 80,000 New Qin troops below to immediately grab and reinforce in an all-round way.

The poor Shangdang defenders were already unable to cope with the onslaught of the first wave of the New Qin Army, and the second and third waves of the New Qin Army swooped up again, and the defense suddenly collapsed. At the moment, the defenders will flee if they can, and if they can surrender, they will surrender: everyone is their own people, and if they can't be defeated, why send them to death!

Soon, the four walls of Shangdang were opened one after another, and more new Qin troops poured into the city and fought in depth.

The loss of the party has become inevitable.

Li Xin, Meng Yi, and Moban couldn't help but be overjoyed when they saw that the attack was so smooth, Li Xin smiled: "I always thought that the defenders could hold out for at least one day, but I didn't expect it to be solved in half a day, it's really wonderful!" Meng Yi said with a smile: "My Qin army's attack power is already strong, and with the assistance of many strange tools from Momen, it will naturally be even more powerful. In the future, the battle will dominate the world, why not be afraid!?" The three laughed.

At this time, Shangdang City was already on fire on all sides, and there was smoke inside, and it seemed that the battle was about to end.

Approaching noon, the generals Su Jiao and Shima came over with black faces, smiled, only one tooth was white, and the two complained: "General Li, General Meng, the battle in the city has basically ended." After the city was broken, the resistance was not fierce, but there were fires everywhere inside and outside the city, and people were killed by the smoke!"

Li Xin smiled: "Well, this is all caused by Mr. Mo's siege equipment, don't blame us!" A few people laughed.

Meng Yi suddenly remembered: "What about Zhouxuan? What now?" Shima pouted and said, "In the chaos of the army, I don't know which one was hacked to death, and when I found him, he was already trampled." If it weren't for the armor that could still be recognized, it would almost be unrecognizable!"

Meng Yi sighed, shook his head and said, "Alas, pitiful, pitiful! How unwise it is, to kill yourself!"

Li Xin patted Meng Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Okay, don't be emotional, let's go to the city!" Take a break, report the news of your victory to Your Majesty, and see what to do next!" Good! Let's go!" The people rode into the city.

Shangdang finally fell into the hands of the New Qin Army, and since then, the counties of Shanxi and Sanchuan have been unimpeded and connected into one place.
