Chapter 77: Victory is on the horizon

In addition to the cloud ladder, the Qin army also has a nest car and a cloud tower, the soldiers of the city of Saluo have never seen such a huge siege equipment, only to see that these things are higher than the city wall, about two zhang in diameter, and they are densely covered with sharp blades, which are tightly attached to the city wall, and they can't push away. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt was full of mud and other things, and it didn't work even if it was set on fire for a while.

When the soldiers of Kanzaro City were helpless in the face of the nest car, the flap on the nest car suddenly opened, and dozens of Qin soldiers hiding in it rushed up and jumped on the city tower, and the Qin army climbed the city wall for the first time and started a white-knuckle battle with the soldiers of Kanzaro City!

The military advisor Hong Chou was shocked when he saw it, and hurriedly gave an order, asking the sergeants to throw out countless jars filled with fire oil towards the place where the nest car turned over, and then set fire to it.

Because there were too many soldiers in the city of Kasaro, the hundreds of Qin troops who climbed the city wall fought alone, and they were also outnumbered, and finally died in battle.

There are also those pointed wooden donkeys constantly crashing against the city wall, but the city of Kansaro is abnormally strong, and the Qin army doesn't know where it is weak, so for a while, it doesn't have much effect.

Besides, at the three city gates, dozens of Qin soldiers pushed wooden oxen to attack carts and rushed towards the city gates. These wooden oxen attack carts were covered with armor, and dozens of Qin soldiers were hidden underneath. Pushed by the sergeants, these oxen storming chariots slammed into the city gates, and as soon as the city gates were knocked open, the siege battle was half won.

Just as the Qin army hit the city gate, several large boiling oil pots on the city wall smashed down towards the wooden oxen attack cart under the city wall, and then dozens of torches were also thrown down at the same time.

In an instant, outside the city gate, there was a sea of fire. The dozens of Qin army sergeants who pushed wooden oxen to attack the cart ran and wailed in the sea of fire one by one, and the scene was quite tragic.

At this time, the Qin army had been attacking the city for more than an hour, Qin Feng was standing on the hillside, looking at the city of Kansaro in the distance, looking at the soldiers of the Qin army who were constantly killed and wounded, his face was flat, and he couldn't see the slightest expression of joy and anger.

In the face of such a powerful combat power of the Qin army, and in the face of the suppressive siege ordnance of the Qin army, this city of Kanzaro can still form such a tug-of-war battle. In addition to the abundant defenders of Kansaro City, what is more important is that their military divisions, temporary command and battle array prediction are not general, it seems that it is not easy for the Qin army to take this Kansaro City!

"General, the enemy's resistance is quite stubborn, it seems that even if our army takes the city of Kansaro, I am afraid that our army will have tens of thousands of casualties"!

Qin Feng looked back at Sima Li who was standing behind him: "General Zuo, how many thousands!" If this continues, I am afraid that only half of our army will be killed or wounded, and we may not be able to capture this city of Kanzaro"!

Halfway? Maybe you can't attack it? Sima Li looked at Qin Feng with some disbelief.

Qin Feng didn't explain, but just whispered a few words to the herald behind him, only to see the herald waving colorful flags at the besieging army again and again, and after the Qin army in the east, west and south got the order, the siege rhythm suddenly changed.

The Qin army attacking the city on the east and west sides slowly retreated after receiving the order, while the Qin army besieging the city in the south not only did not retreat, but the pace of attack accelerated a lot. All of a sudden, the southern city wall of Kansaro was alarmed everywhere, and Hong Chou, the military division of Kansaro, also hurriedly dispatched troops to support the southern city wall.

The retreating Qin armies from the east and west did not return to where the Chinese army was, but after assembling and rushing towards the southern city wall.

Seeing that the Qin army was like this, Hong Chou, the military division of the Han Luo Kingdom, hurriedly rushed to the southern city wall in person, wanting to see what the Qin army wanted to do!

Seeing this, Sima Li suddenly realized: "General, our army has concentrated its forces to storm one place, and this city of Saluo is not just around the corner"!

"Not necessarily! Let's take a look!"

It turned out that after such a siege on three sides, Qin Feng had already understood that the city in front of him was not only fortified, but also had countless soldiers and horses in the city. Regardless of whether they are besieged on three sides or on all sides, their defensive strength on each side is almost saturated.

Since ancient times, the method of using soldiers, ten are to surround it, five to attack it, and to fight it twice! Now the soldiers and horses of the Qin army are much less than those of the Saro, and they have to besiege them on three sides, which is incompatible with the art of war!

In this battle, the Qin army relied on nothing more than the Qin army's strong combat strength, strong bows and crossbows, and the advantage of siege equipment. And these advantages, on the premise that the enemy's forces are saturated on every side of the defense, have become minimal.

Rather than this, it is better to concentrate superior forces and storm the southern wall. Anyway, there are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses in the country of Salo, and the defense on three sides is a saturation defense, and one defense is also a saturation defense.

On the other hand, the Qin army concentrated its forces to storm the southern city wall, and even if the Han Salo Kingdom wanted to increase the southern city wall, it would not increase much due to the limitation of the area of the city wall. However, the Qin army attacking outside the city has surged threefold, so that in this offensive and defensive battle, if nothing else, the balance of victory will be tilted in favor of the Qin army!

Under the city of Saluo, as Qin Feng expected, under the fierce attack of more than 50,000 troops of the Qin army, even if the city wall was full of soldiers of the Saluo Kingdom, it could not stop so many Qin troops. Even if he was standing full of sergeants, he was huddled in one place, his movement was restricted, and his defensive strength was not strengthened in the slightest compared to the battle of attack and defense just now.

After the Qin army stormed the southern city wall, after a while, the Qin army within a few nest cars climbed the city wall of Kasaro. Then on the countless cloud ladders, there were more and more Qin troops climbing up.

In less than a quarter of an hour, more than 1,000 Qin troops had already climbed the city wall, and they were almost crowded together with the soldiers of the Kansaro Kingdom, and they were close to each other, and for a while, the entire southern city wall was already bleeding. And the soldiers of the other places in the city, even if they want to come for reinforcements, but the southern city wall is already crowded with people, and there is no way to get over.

On the hillside outside the city, Qin Feng looked at the battle situation in front of him, and a smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth. As long as the Qin army occupies a few key points on the city wall, then the next step is white-knuckle fighting and street fighting. This kind of tactics is useless for any strategy, and the only thing that works is individual combat power. Speaking of combat power, Qin Jun has never been afraid of others!

Seeing this, Sima Li and several generals behind Qin Feng exhaled a breath in unison, a smile appeared on their faces, and the big stone in their hearts could finally be put down.

According to the development of this battle situation, even if the Qin army can't take the entire city of Kansaro today, it should not be a problem to capture the southern city wall and several key points in the city. At that time, the strong city defense that the enemy army relied on became a useless thing, and this huge city of Saluo could be said to be almost in the bag of the Qin army!

There were also those Qin army sergeants who were beating drums, seeing that thousands of their Qin troops had already climbed the city wall of Kanzalo, they were all overjoyed, and their arms that had become sour and numb after beating the drums for a long time seemed to be full of strength again, grabbed the drumsticks in their hands, and struck them fiercely on the cowhide drums the size of Zhang Xu.

The deafening sound of rumbling war drums also reached the ears of the Qin army who were fighting bloodily in front of them, the ears of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Saluo Kingdom, and every corner of the battlefield.

This rumbling war drum seems to be telling these Qin army warriors: "Kill! Victory will be ours"!

This rumbling war drum seemed to tell the soldiers of the Knesaro Kingdom: "Run!" You can't take it anymore!"

The 20,000 Qin troops standing at the place of the Chinese army had already mounted their guns one after another, ready to break through the south gate, and prepared to rush straight into the city by themselves.

At this moment, just as the Qin army was about to achieve victory, and at the moment when the country was about to be defeated, I saw that the southern wall of the city suddenly burst into flames. The entire southern wall turned into a sea of fire in an instant.
