When the Han army entered within 100 paces, dense locust-like arrows poured down from the pass.

After more than 100 casualties, the remaining Han army finally lost their courage and threw down the long ladder and fled.

However, before the Wei army could catch its breath, another wave of Han troops swarmed up.

When the rebels rushed within a hundred paces again, a dense rain of arrows poured down from the pass again, and the second wave of the Han army performed slightly better than the first wave of the Han army, and they moved forward a few dozen paces, but they still couldn't get close to the wall, let alone erect the long ladder to prepare to seize the city.

Over the next day, the Han army launched more than 20 attacks on Tongguan.

However, it is very unfortunate that except for two Han troops who have approached the city wall, the remaining more than 20 Han army attacks were defeated by the rain of arrows of the Wei army in the middle of the road, and when the sky gradually darkened, the desert under the pass was already full of corpses of the Han army, not to mention more than 500 people.

On the enemy tower, Wang Chang held on to the fence and fell into deep thought.

Is the general of the Shu army under the pass an idiot horse? Knowing that such a way of fighting is simply sending people to death, but the Shu army is still rushing up again and again?

Jin Kai said suddenly: "General, this group of Shu troops should not be cornered, right?" ”

Wang Chang said: "Are you saying that although the Shu army took Chang'an, it also went deep into our hinterland, embattled on all sides, and fell into a desperate death?" ”

Soon, without waiting for Jin Kai to answer, Wang Chang himself shook his head and denied: "Then the Shu army has no point in capturing Chang'an, isn't it child's play like this?" ”

Tongguan west five miles, Wei Yan big tent.

Wei Chang hurriedly stepped into the tent, snorted at Wei Yan, and then said with a miserable expression: "Father, it's not a way to go on like this, my son's angry front camp is almost gone!" ”

In today's battle, Wei Chang's 2,000-strong Nufeng battalion killed 800 people.

What's even more frustrating is that so many people have died, and they haven't even touched the battlements of Tongguan, how can this battle be fought?

Wei Yan said indifferently: "How much has the Nufeng Battalion lost?" ”

Wei Chang said miserably: "Eight hundred people have been killed in battle!" ”

"Make up for your eight hundred!" Wei Yan said without thinking: "You go to the camp to pick people by yourself!" ”

"This ......" Wei Chang was stunned, and saw that Wei Yan didn't look like he was joking, so he quickly turned around and left.

Seeing his son leave, Wei Yan fell into a long silence, and his eyes became cold like never before.

The army was ordered to storm Tongguan at any cost, the main purpose of which was to paralyze and exhaust the defenders at the pass, consume the defenders' supplies, and create opportunities for the next strong attack after the arrival of the siege equipment.

But up to now, the 20,000 Han troops out of the Meridian Valley have been injured by nearly 10,000 people, almost half of the entire army, after the battles of snatching the hegemony, capturing Chang'an, and knocking on the pass today.

Even if he is as confident and proud as Wei Yan, he is not shocked and cold, and after a few hard battles, I am afraid that 20,000 people will be lost!

But in an instant, Wei Yan's eyes became firm again, Ci is not in charge of the army, how can there be immortals in war!

The next day, the attack of the Han army outside the Guanwai continued.

Groups of Han troops carried long ladders and swarmed towards Tongguan, launching desperate and tragic attacks again and again, and then routed under the rain of arrows of the Wei army in Guanshang, and broke their bones under the ravages of rolling wood and stones, and several teams of Han soldiers climbed the long ladder without fear of death, only to be burned to ashes by the fierce fire oil.

By the next day, there were more than 1,000 corpses under Tongguan.

On the third day, the attack of the Han army outside the Guanwai continued.

For two consecutive days, the defenders of Guanshang were nervous and ready to fight at any time, but the Han army took turns to play and adopt wheel tactics. After two days of fierce battles at the pass, the Wei army was exhausted, and on the third day, the number of Han troops attacking the city did not change, but the defenders of Guanshang obviously felt that the Han army's attack on the third day was much stronger.

The invasion of the Wei army's arrow rain was no longer enough to stop the advance of the Han army, and the rolling wood and stones were no longer enough to prevent the Han army from ascending the city.

The sun finally went down, and the Han army under the gate finally retreated like a tide again.

Under the majestic wall of Tongguan, a thousand corpses were added again.

However, the Wei army on the pass finally suffered casualties, especially unfortunately, arrows, rolling logs, rocks and fierce fire oil were consumed severely, if the siege battle of this intensity continued for two more days, the fierce fire oil hoarded in the pass would be in an emergency, and the rolling wood, rocks and arrows would also be used up.

Wang Chang had clearly felt that the difficulty of the Wei army in guarding the pass was increasing greatly.

It was not until this moment that Wang Chang suddenly realized that the chief general of the Shu army outside the gate was definitely not an idiot, on the contrary, the chief general of the Shu army was definitely a ruthless character, this guy clearly wanted to use wheel warfare to consume the Wei army's defending materials and drag down the Wei army's spirit.

Wang Chang breathed a long sigh of relief and instructed the deputy general Jin Kaidao: "Except for the sentry and patrol team who are keeping vigil, the rest of the soldiers should hurry up and eat, then sleep, recuperate enough physical strength, and prepare for tomorrow's vicious battle!" ”

It is completely conceivable that by tomorrow dawn, the siege of the Shu army will be greater, and the pressure on the Wei army to defend the city will also increase!

Clearly like the moon, lonely hanging on the mountain

In the middle of the night

Wang Ping and Gao Xiang led 2,000 Han soldiers, as well as the people who were requisitioned from Chang'an, pushed 15 ladders, 15 wells and 4 siege vehicles into the straight official road, and quietly touched Tongguan more than ten miles away under the cover of night.

As soon as these siege equipment were built, Wang Ping and Gao Xiang immediately gathered their troops and rushed to Tongguan, where they took with them siege equipment, a large number of arrows, enough dry food, and wounded soldiers of the Han army.

poured out of the nest, leaving not a single soldier to guard Chang'an, and Chang'an announced that it would not defend the Wei army!

In fact, this was also planned in advance, after building the siege equipment, Wang Ping and Gao Xiang abandoned Chang'an and rushed to Tongguan to attack the city. If you can't take Tongguan, isn't guarding Chang'an equivalent to guarding Bai.

On the other side, in the mountain flats a few miles away from Tongguan, Wei Yan's headquarters and pro-army completed the assembly.

In the previous three days, Wei Chang and Deng Ai had led their troops to attack the city in turn, but Wei Yan's 3,000 elites had not moved, and they had been recuperating.

After three days of continuous fierce fighting, Wei Yan had reason to believe that the defenders on the Tong Pass had formed a mindset, and most of them would think that the Han army outside the pass would build a long ladder at night and then continue to attack the city during the day!

Tonight, Wei Yan still ordered Wei Chang to lead people to cut down trees on the mountains on both sides of the official road and build long ladders with great fanfare.

However, the Han army will not wait until tomorrow to attack, and this time, he Wei Yan will surprise the defenders of Guanshang!

Teach them what ............ Soldiers don't get tired of cheating!
