Chapter 115: Attacking the Heart
The Chu army opened a posture outside the city, but there was not even a general flag at the head of Guangling City, and the word "Qin" swaying in the wind seemed to be trembling, a little bleak, and some heroes were as desolate as twilight.
Zhang Liang looked at the city, twisted his beard and couldn't help thinking, Xiang Ji felt bored after driving for a while, and he waved the Chu halberd alone and waited for the battle, Han Wangxin wanted to get close several times, but he was forced to dare not step forward, so he had to gather outside and high-five.
Knowing that this battle was not his own stage, Yu Zhou did not take the initiative to ask for help, his eyes inadvertently crossed Han Wangxin, and he found that there was something in this person's eyes that was very similar to Zhao Shan.
He's another guy who doesn't make people worry......
After a while, perhaps it was a little boring to dance the halberd alone, Xiang Ji hooked his hand at Han Wangxin and motioned for this guy of similar size to accompany him to make two moves.
Unexpectedly, this person waved his hand again and again, but he should not.
You must know that if you want to be recognized in the army, it is useless to have a name, surname, and family background, and it is the most effective means to see the truth under your hands.
For this newcomer, the soldiers of the Chu army have been curious for a long time, the five big and three thick are as burly as the young general, and their skills can be worse?
With this mentality, more and more soldiers are coaxing, and they really want to see a dragon fight......
Xiang Ji invited again and again, Han Wangxin repeatedly shirked, and in the end, Xiang Ji was a little angry, threw the halberd and strode forward, holding his shoulders, elbows on his waist, and sticking his back to an over-the-shoulder fall.
Han Wangxin didn't dare to slack off, stretched out his foot to wrap his calf, supported his palm on his back, and shouted in his mouth: "Come slowly!" Slow down! In the lower bones scattered! ”
Hearing this, Xiang Ji hurriedly stopped, turned his head to look again, and saw Han Wangxin standing in place in an unusually awkward posture, and then thought of the other party's hypocrisy when he coiled himself, and suddenly understood, and asked in a voice that only two people heard: "Han Zhuangshi has been injured and has not yet recovered?" ”
Han Wangxin's face was originally very embarrassed, but after hearing this, he immediately pulled down his face, and said in a sad tone: "I am not the opponent of the major general, thank you for your mercy." ”
This time, Xiang Ji sat down in his heart, and it was not good to continue to persecute each other, so he hugged his fist and replied: "Xiang is reckless and offended." ”
Han Wangxin nodded deeply, and did not change his posture, he refused Xiang Ji's kindness to step forward to support, and said with his waist: "It's okay, it'll be fine after a while, it's all old injuries left when fighting with the Qin people, no obstacles, no obstacles......"
The more he said this, the more embarrassed Xiang Ji became: "Han Zhuangshi, why didn't you say it earlier, the Gongcheng Divine Doctor has a wonderful hand to rejuvenate, but he is now in Jiangdong ......"
"It's also someone Han who is in a hurry to subvert the tyrannical Qin, so he missed it with the divine doctor, it's okay, I'll talk about it later."
The two of you said a word, and the surrounding sergeants were all stunned, what was going on? Why did they just start making moves, and the young general was stopped by this person? Could it be that there is something subtle in his moves?
Ordinary sergeants couldn't see anything, and Xiang Ji, who was known for his strength, didn't pay attention to it, Yan Heng was good at dexterity and thoughtfulness, and after reading it, he checked the footprints on the ground again, pouted and said: "This person is really good at pretending, but he is obviously not good at learning but makes the young general feel guilty, and I don't know what he said." ”
Yu Zhou smiled: "This is also a kind of ability, as long as you don't steal or rob, you won't harm our Chu army, even if what he said?" ”
Yan Heng said in surprise: "Zi Period, this is not like what you would say, have you forgotten the old things of indiscriminate refill?" ”
"So what? Has Mr. Nan Guo endangered the Qi country? It's just an extra portion, and we can't afford it.
You must know how Han Xin said that after the Korean royal family, it is not a loss to pay a little money to support such a person. ”
Yan Heng was anxious: "Sub-period, this person is impermanent, I think it's better to be more vigilant......"
Yu Zhou casually broke a bamboo shoot from Long He's arms, and said while chewing: "It's okay, little fat man, your teeth are really good, you are about to catch up with the iron eating beast!" ”
"What is an Iron Eater?"
"You'll know when you get to Bashu later."
The topic was diverted, Yan Heng knew that it was useless to say more, so he closed his mouth and stopped talking.
Yu Zhou gnawed on the bamboo shoots, his heart was the same as that of Spiegel, in his opinion, he was also pretending to be stupid and stunned to deceive trust and support, a known Han Wangxin was much more reassuring, with this person as a psychological prevention, it would be much easier to persuade Liu Bang to have real skills in the future......
When the water is clear, there are no fish, and when people are observed, there are no fugitives.
In the face of the future overlord, I can help him a lot, but I can't grow up for him, a completely sterile environment is harmful, and a guy like Han Wangxin can be the first antibody on the road to growth......
Damn, it's the dragon and this guy is more and more like a panda, where did he find the bamboo shoots? It is not astringent, crunchy, and has a sweet fragrance.
"——! Toot"
"Knock, knock, knock......"
At this time, everyone put away their laughter and walked like a green pine with the wind, and quickly transformed from a group of fellow villagers to comrades.
The road was paved, the mud pit was temporarily cleared, the chariot and horse army stepped over, and the Chu flag soon floated all over the city of Guangling, hunting and hunting with the spring breeze, looking from afar, like a flame burning the earth.
Beads of sweat slid down his cheeks, fell to the ground and turned into mud, Xiang Ji wiped his face, and was about to order the siege of the city with his halberd, Zhang Liang next to him hurriedly persuaded him, and said: "Young General, salute first and then soldiers, I see that this city is not well prepared, so you might as well persuade to surrender first, so as not to kill or drop the soldiers." ”
Xiang Ji thought for a while, and put down the halberd to agree.
Seeing this, Zhang Liang immediately ordered Situ Yi's archers to go and shoot the letter of surrender, and one by one the feather arrows were inserted into the city tower and flew over the city wall, and no one in Guangling came forward for a while.
After two rounds of arrow rain, several bold Qin soldiers pulled out their arrows, untied the note, looked at each other, and ran away quickly, not knowing where to report whom.
Zhang Liang also knew that it was not Xiang Ji's style to wait, and at the same time, he ordered Yu Zhou's troops to set up trebuchets and bombard the city wall twice, so as to force the Qin army.
To tell the truth, it was hard to assemble this thing, if it wasn't for the siege sooner or later, Yu Zhou wouldn't have brought it, so there were a lot of fast-wearing parts, and there were only five trebuchets that could really be assembled.
Long He, who also knew the inside story, held Chu Ji and looked at it for a long time, and wondered: "There are only five catapults, what can they be used for?" The four gates are one on each side, should the armies protect it or should they attack the city? ”
Zhang Liang knocked on his head, grabbed the water bladder and poured it twice, and said: "You know that there are only five, and the Qin army in the city doesn't know it, they only have such weapons in half a day, and they should be frightened when they think about the woods outside the city." ”
"Cut, it's your plotter's attack on the heart again, if you want me to say, it's still the pleasure of doing a real fight."
Zhang Liang didn't care, and replied casually: "God has the virtue of a good life, if you can recruit those who return, those who serve them, and those who descend take them off, this expedition, our army has won three points in the world." ”
Long Ji's head grew when he heard this, and he pointed at Yu Zhou and said, "Don't tell me, don't tell me, you can discuss these things, I just want to know when the city will be attacked." ”
"Squeak—"
"Whew-"
"Knock ——!"
The catapult was finally operational, and many Chu troops had seen it for the first time, although the first few test firings did not hit any targets, but judging from the restless snorting of the horse's front hooves, and the smoke and dust from the stone projectiles falling to the ground, no one would think that this thing was a good match.
The careful guy even found that in the past, it took five hundred people to command the five stone throwers, but now, there are not many people under Yu Zhou's command who are circling around the five wooden shelves, on the contrary, more people are hanging crossbows and raising shields as a warning.
What's even more incredible is that the operator manpower was reduced, and the five stone throws were thrown farther, and the slight shock caused by falling to the ground could be noticed, and the Chu army, who was watching from afar, wanted to see what the Qin army would be......
"See, this is considered a siege, your light cavalry is not needed, if your hands are itchy, you can move stones and throw them into the city by yourself, which is considered a benefit given to you by your brother."
The dragon grinned, not mentioning the previous words, rolled up his sleeves and patted left and right, picked a watermelon and picked a stone bullet, "hum hum" and moved it into the bomb pocket, and then released the noose himself, and the gun tip quickly returned to its original position, driving the leather bag forward......
"Whew-"
"It's a pleasure! It's a majestic sound! ”
"Knock ——!"
As soon as the words fell, the stone bullets that had been corrected several times had already smashed heavily on the Guangling city wall, falling countless dust, and at the same time, someone found that the rammed earth wall was deeply sunk into a large piece......
If you smash this again, you won't have a big hole? How terrifying is this thing?
Now there are only five, what if there are more?
The Chu people will think that the Qin army in the city will also do, they can't figure out how many Chu troops there are in this thing, but the feeling of being on the city wall is always fake.
The sound is like thunder, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is like a landslide, a stone bullet is thrown, they only feel that the city wall under their feet trembles suddenly, and after the slight numbness of the trembling feet, the feeling has not disappeared after a long time, and even many people feel that it is a precursor that the city wall cannot hold on.
"Xiongchu is the first to be the strong!"
"Xiongchu is the first to fight for Jianshi!!"
"Xiongchu is the first to !!"
Just when the Qin army hesitated, the Chu army outside the city threw the spear halberd in his hand to the ground, roared loudly to cheer for his own combat weapons, and the dragon and his feet were light, and the back and forth was even faster.
Fan Zeng glanced at this side, didn't say anything, and then looked at Xiang Ji, only to see that he had no concept of this at all, and was immediately wielding a halberd to fight.
"Woo-woo!"
"Boom! Gollum ——! ”
Several stone bullets cut through the sky in a row, and the catapult became more and more proficient, and after falling to the city wall again, Qin Jun finally knew that the previous feeling was not an illusion.
The power of the earth dragon turned over roared under his feet, and he threw it on the city wall one by one, and transmitted the shock into the heart through the legs of the Qin people.
Turning his head and seeing a stone bullet falling on the city gate tower and smashing it into a hole, Qin Jun sought to dodge, and secretly wondered in his heart that the car throwing he had seen before was not like this, why did it suddenly sound like a thunderbolt......
It takes a long time for the trebuchet to be loaded and launched, and there are only five of them, and it can't be directly killed at all, and the magic is that Zhang Liang deliberately chose to persuade the letter to surrender when he just entered the city to launch an offensive, at this moment, how does Ren Qinjun think This is also a tentative threat, and the big head is still behind.
Seeing that the Chu army sent people to cut down wood everywhere, the Qin army finally panicked, and the frequent change of county commanders and county captains had already made the morale of this city greatly reduced and the people's hearts were lost, and many people had an idea in their hearts, but they didn't dare to say it - this place was close to the Chu people sooner or later, and the officials rushed to flee to show that Daqin had abandoned this city.
"The general outside the city listens to ......"
Xiang Ji waved his hand, and the catapult stopped.
"This is Qin land, the first emperor's mourning period has not passed, it is not appropriate to raise troops to kill, our county order said, I want you to leave quickly and fight another day."
Damn, even the first emperor's funeral has been carried out by this war-free card!
If you really want to calculate it according to the etiquette system, it is true that Chu Jun is not responsible for this matter, but who can go back and wait for another three years now?
Zhang Liangxin is pure-hearted, Fan Zeng is old, rolling up his sleeves and scolding the street, Yu Zhou doesn't want to go to this kind of thing, and before the righteousness of Lile occupies Xiang Ji's mind, he took three steps forward on his horse and asked: "In the past, the King of Qin plotted against the Six Kingdoms, and the whole world was mourned and he didn't stop fighting, but now it's the other way around, why do you want me to wait for a truce?"
I heard that there are frequent changes of officials in Guangling County, so don't you want us to evacuate some county lieutenants so that we can escape?
If this is the case, it doesn't hurt for the Chu army to retreat, after all, the headless snake is not feasible, and without the Qin officials, our army will just take over the city! ”
If they talk about anything else, Qin Jun can still refute two sentences, but when it comes to the chaos of Guangling's official system, the first thing they think of is that the county order has been nested in the mansion to clean up their belongings.
After arguing irrefutably, Qin Jun symbolically put two arrows to answer, and returned to his senses and was unhappy, only to see him raise his left arm and pull the string with his right hand, staring at his eyes for a while, his fingers loosened, and shouted with a "whoosh": "Look at the arrows!" ”
Thinking that many years ago, Xiang Ji had already had excellent archery skills, coupled with his later efforts to marry Ah Yu, his hands were even more stable, although he had never done the matter of shooting halberds, he thought it was not bad.
The arrow crossed the sky, with a twist to drill up to the city, the Qin army bow that shot the arrow just now has not been withdrawn, only to feel that there is a black spot in front of him suddenly became larger sharply, and before an exclamation was issued, the arrow that was fast to the extreme had disappeared, and at the same time, his head was carried back up, and the whole person took off and hit the city gate tower, and he would not move with a "bang".
"Humph! The military advisor said that the salute first and then the soldiers, Xiang Mou will not kill people at this time, after the three drums, if he does not surrender, the army will break through the city and will be trampled into powder! ”
After that, an urgent drum sounded in the sky, and the Qin army at the head of the city heard this, so he went to see his comrade who was shot, only to see that the man was bleeding from the back of his head but breathing steadily, and a sharp arrow smashed the crown of the board into the bun, and took him to the wall and fainted......
"This ...... Who can stop this person? ”
Qin Jun looked at each other, it was not enough to be condescending, everyone thought that they didn't have this ability, the power of the arrow said everything, not all fierce generals can play a good archery skill, but those who have super high archery skills must be strong generals.
"If it falls... But I can't go back to Qindi again......"
As soon as the speaker hesitated, he was interrupted by another old soldier: "Now like this, you can't go back to Qindi if you don't surrender or not, but our 'county lieutenant' is superb, presumably you can mix glory and wealth wherever you go." ”
"I've heard... The current emperor ......"
"Silence! What time is it? Say what those do? Aren't you afraid of slander? ”
"I can't go back anyway, I'm going to die or live and tell me what's wrong."
The people who talked together were ordinary soldiers, and they took the opportunity of the discussion between the officials to complain to each other, and then looked at the superiors who had not received any military orders, and these people were even more worried and did not know where to go.
"Knock knock—"
"The second drum is ......"
"Do you say that if we descend, the Chu army will be trapped......
“……”
“……”
“……”
Some people don't dare to answer, some people don't dare to think, and some people simply don't dare to answer, wearing Qin army clothes and wanting to do things after surrendering, they can't get over it in their hearts, not to mention that there are natives among them.
At this moment, the shouting outside the city was a little louder, and what was surprising was that there was actually the most familiar Qin dialect, could it be that the Chu army had already accepted the Qin people as soldiers?
"What do you want to pinch? That military leader doesn't care about you, who is you pinching? Fighting for a while, there is no reward for life and no death, isn't that a loss to the mother-in-law's kang? ”
"It's like, the young general treats people well, and the foreheads are all pinched by the nine!"
The Jiuyuan Army, a Qin person, knows that it is the absolute power of General Meng Tian to attack the border, and it has galloped all over the world since the destruction of the Six Kingdoms, and its loyalty does not need to be questioned.
The voice of the Jiuyuan Army appeared in the Chu army, and there was only one possibility that they had patiently raised these prisoners for more than half a year, and only now did they begin to send them to the battlefield.
In light of this, does it need to be said much about the road ahead?
"Knock Knock Knock ——!"
"Open the gates! The third drum is over! ”
A young soldier could no longer stand up, but was blocked by another old soldier, who glanced in the direction of the hundred generals, five hundred masters, and thousand generals, and was silent.
"Commander, you mean to kill them first?"
The old soldier blushed and had a thick neck after hearing this, and before he could speak, he saw that the military masters were suddenly panicked and preparing to return to their positions, and at the same time, a herald shouted from far and near: "The head of Qian, divide the troops and suppress them-"
"Where? How many people? ”
"Right at the door of the county ......"
Before he finished speaking, the county lieutenant's personal soldier had already fallen to the ground, and his expression of disbelief while holding his neck became a freeze frame, and at this time, the old soldier who had blocked the road before roared: "The county lieutenant can't stand it anymore, Lao Tzu follows this kind of wreck, it's better to be against his mother!" ”
Those who have a heart for the Chu army, there are those who would rather die than obey, and the guys who have not yet made up their minds were brought by these two groups, and the city suddenly fell into chaos, and the blades between the comrades were a little sad, and I don't know which one killed the red-eyed person to throw the "Qin" flag to the city, and the Xuanniao pattern suddenly fell to the ground.
If you really want to talk about it, those Qin people who are loyal to the Chu army are still guarding the city wall, and they have seen the power of the other party's siege, and they have more comparisons in their hearts.
This came and went, the city gate quickly opened from the inside, Zhang Liang nodded after observing, Xiang Ji did not hesitate any longer, holding a halberd between the legs of the horse, and galloped away with a long shout......
"Attack! It's time to make a difference! Kill ——! ”
Nearly 10,000 people rushed to the city gate one after another, what was the scene? Yu Zhou didn't join in the excitement anyway.
Kicking the dragon with two kicks and letting him take the light horse to the other three gates to intercept it, Yu Zhou commanded his subordinates to put away the catapult again.
It's a miracle that this group of careless guys were able to take a city on the day they arrived! Thinking of Xiang Jisheng's more foul play, it seems that there is nothing left......
"Hey, boy Yu, you're really a good thing, can you let the old man take a closer look?"
Yu Zhou smiled at Fan Zeng and said casually: "Look at it casually, touch it casually, but it's just you." ”
Fan Zeng didn't care about his teasing openly and secretly, waved his hand and said, "I heard that Song Yishi is proficient in the delicate wooden mechanism, why don't you give the old man a model of this thing?" ”
In this era without patent rights, it is impossible for Yu Zhou to have too many weapons for himself, it is better not to be known, as long as he has seen it, he will be imitated sooner or later.
After thinking about it for a while, he replied: "I will tell the young general all the ways of this thing, and he will tell who the boy can't control, but if these things fall on us in the future, I will also investigate this responsibility to death!" ”
Fan Zeng smiled and nodded: "That's the best." ”
Yu Zhou was stunned when he saw this, and suddenly thought that he might have thought about a lot of things before, such as because telling Xiang Ji is equivalent to telling Fan Zeng, so no one has told him, on the other hand, in fact, why didn't Fan Zeng ask the two of them to get along with the emperor, which caused a mutual misunderstanding?
I was afraid that Fan Zeng would know, so I didn't even tell the item; Fan Zeng felt that it was inappropriate for him not to tell Xiang Ji, so he forced him step by step.
The more persecution, the more forked in the road, what did you do......
"Old Fan, Qin Mo's ...... over there"
"The old man has cut it off together, but the agricultural tools are not privately hidden for the common people."
Yu Zhou glanced at his subordinates and found that they were almost cleaned up, and the shouting of killing in the city had gradually become more and more popular, so he said, "Old Fan, please." ”
"Hmph, the bastard was rude before! It's too late to pretend! Punish you for handing over at least five jars of fine wine......"
Fan Zeng's illness can't be greedy for alcohol, Yu Zhou hurriedly interrupted: "Old Fan, I know that it will be very difficult for us to continue to grow grain after we break away from Daqin, to be honest, how much grain, grass, copper and iron have you exchanged for those farm tools?" ”
