Chapter 241: The Second Battle [8/25] Happy New Year!

In the first battle between the Jin State and the Chu State, the Jin State suffered an unprepared loss, and the army of the Chu State rested for a day in the newly captured city, and then immediately sent troops. Before the Jin State reacted in time, send troops as early as possible.

There were not many casualties in the first battle of Chu, but in the second battle, the Jin State was already prepared, and Chen soldiers were 100,000 in Yucheng. Here, the follow-up army of the Chu State is also rapidly assembling.

In the previous first battle with the Jin State, the Chu State won the war without much effort. After some of the soldiers defending the city escaped, the Chu army was spread to the gods.

"The soldiers of the Chu State are all equipped with divine weapons that sharpen iron like clay."

"King Chu Zhuang will be able to take things from the air, and even the big siege equipment such as trebuchets, rushing cars, and cloud ladders can be conjured up in the blink of an eye."

If it was just one thing to say, then no one in the Jin Kingdom would believe it, but the soldiers who escaped all insisted that King Zhuang would have immortal spells.

And the Chu State has divine weapons that do not exist in the world, and the soldiers of the Chu State with these divine weapons are like heavenly soldiers and generals.

How do people fight against the gods?

Thick smoke billowed under the sky, the horn of the general attack sounded, and the sons and daughters of the Chu State rushed towards the towering Jin State wall like a fierce tiger out of the cage.

"The Chu army is here, hurry! Resist me! Qin Yu, the general in charge of commanding the defense of the city, shouted nervously. His nervousness also had a great impact on the soldiers defending the city.

The soldiers panicked, and one of the archers standing in the front row couldn't even hold the arrow steadily, and was kicked hard by Qin Yu.

Suddenly, dense arrows hit the Chu army like dense raindrops, and the Chu army's shield was like a wall, and the arrows fell on the shield with a dull sound. The shield used by the Chu State has been improved by forging technology, and it is impossible for ordinary arrows to damage the shield at all.

After the Jin Kingdom's arrow attack ends. The archers rewound, and taking advantage of this gap, the Chu army walked like a fly, and quickly approached the city wall.

The Jin Kingdom was the overlord of the Central Plains, and almost every city was equipped with a three-bow bed crossbow.

"Quick! Set up the three-bow bed crossbow! Seeing that ordinary bows and arrows were useless against the Chu army, Qin Yu hurriedly asked people to prepare a three-bow bed crossbow.

Soon the bow and crossbow were fired at his command. The Chu army immediately erected a shield wall. This time the muffled sound was heavier than the previous arrow attacks. The shield hand on the Chu army's side, who was directly subjected to the attack of the bow and crossbow, took a small step back. The crossbow landed, leaving a shallow scratch on the shield.

"Impossible!" There was actually a shield in this world that could withstand the attack of the three-bow bed crossbow, and Qin Yu couldn't believe his eyes.

"Even the three-bow bed crossbow can't hurt them, can't the Chu army really get the divine weapon given by God?" If the Jin army's crossbowmen hadn't witnessed it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have been able to believe this fact, and they couldn't help blurting out the rumors before they remembered the rumors.

All the soldiers in the city who witnessed this scene were a little flustered.

Qin Yu felt irritable in his heart. "Bastard, what kind of divine soldier, do you want to disturb the morale of the army? Drag me down and kill me. He drew his sword at his waist. Those who escape from the battle will be killed! ”

The crossbowmen were dragged down, and the Jin army's military spirit was temporarily stabilized.

The Chu army erected a ladder, and the Jin army put up stubborn resistance either with wooden or rolling stones. After a while, there were a lot of corpses of Chu soldiers on the city wall.

At this time of the weekend, the trebuchet, ladder truck, and rush cart were taken out of the meson space. 、

More than a dozen trebuchets were quickly set up, and under the operation of the soldiers, the boulder flew into the air and smashed into the city wall. The boulder fell, and the soldiers of the Jin army suffered heavy casualties.

The Chu army was overwhelmed and quickly attacked the city.

The Jin army and the Chu army were in close combat. The knives used by the Chu army were all steel knives, and the knives used by the Jin army were all made of iron, but after a few rounds of fighting, the knives of the Jin soldiers were cut down by the soldiers of the Chu army, and the soldiers of the Jin State were immediately equivalent to being defenseless.

"Ahh

"Run!"

It was just a rumor before, and the Jin army was already rumored, but at this time, when they really saw the power of the weapons of the Chu State, the soldiers of the Jin State were all frightened.

Qin Yu shouted there: "Don't mess up, don't panic, drive the Chu army out of the city for me." ”

He also saw with his own eyes the power of the weapons of the Chu State, and although he said words to boost morale, there was a tremor in his voice.

His lieutenant generals on the left and right saw that the situation was not good, and they came to persuade him one after another. "General, the Chu army is a heavenly soldier at all, let's run!"

"Shut up!" Qin Yu shouted angrily. "Whoever dares to mention the word escape again, I will kill whoever they want!"

Soon, a large number of Chu troops attacked the city, and the Chu army became more and more courageous, and the Jin army was defeated all the way. The rushing car of the Chu army smashed a crack in the city gate, and after another impact, the city gate was opened. The head of the city and the gate fell at the same time.

"Kill!" The general of the Chu army raised the sword in his hand high and pointed it directly at the Jin city wall. The Chu army rushed towards the Jin city like an arrow off the string.

The Chu army held a sharp blade, like a killing god above the nine heavens, with one to ten. In the battle of Xu Xuan, the Jin army has lost more and won less, and a large number of Jin troops have died. The soldiers of the Chu State were like killing machines, constantly strangling the lives of the soldiers of the Jin State.

The ground was covered with rivers of blood, and the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood.

Qin Yu also wanted to lead his troops to resist, but the battle situation was clear. Qin Yu's lieutenant pulled him all the way to the north gate to break through.

The Chu army bees poured into the Jin city. The city of Jin fell again, and the lord Qin Yu was hacked to death with a knife. King Zhuang asked the Chu army to search the city's finances, but they were not allowed to rob the people, and violators were severely punished. However, this time the Jin army was prepared, the walls were clear, and the Chu army did not get much property.

After the war, Cheng Jia reported the number of casualties among the soldiers. "The Jin army has 100,000 soldiers and horses in this battle, and they have already taken precautions, so our total number of casualties this time is 2,000, more than 1,000 more killed and wounded than in the last battle of the city."

"The soldiers and horses of the Jin army are also constantly gathering, and the further the Jin army goes, the more fierce the resistance of the Jin army will be. However, Jin Linggong should not have the idea of a strong man breaking his wrist, and he will not combine the soldiers of the Jin State together. Weekend sneered contemptuously. Although the Jin Kingdom is large, the Jin Linggong is extremely mediocre. If you are not afraid of an opponent like a wolf, you are afraid of a teammate like a pig. As long as Jin Linggong reigned for one day, he would have one more chance of winning when attacking the Jin Kingdom.

According to the information sent by the year pole, the Jin State still has 600,000 soldiers and horses to mobilize. If he is the king of the Jin Kingdom, he will definitely give up some cities at this time, temporarily retreat, and gather the soldiers and horses of the Jin Kingdom in one place. In this way, the Jin Kingdom may still have some chance of winning.

However, the weekend will not give Jin Linggong a chance to gather troops and horses. Sun Tzu has a saying in the Art of War: "A soldier is a noble and fast." He only rested for a moment, and immediately set out with his troops towards the next city. In fifteen days, the Chu army captured six cities of the Jin State and gradually approached the capital of the Jin State.
