Chapter 259: Destroying Han (3)
In the night, black iron streams are approaching the edge of the Yellow River. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Squeak! Chirping! Chirping! ”
On the calm waters, there was a cacophony of wood.
"What sound?"
On the south bank of the Yellow River, above the dim position of the Korean army, a dutiful Han soldier stared at the thin layer of mist above the river.
Another Han pawn who was keeping vigil with him turned over slightly, his eyes opened a slit, and he glanced at the dark surface of the river, as well as his companion who clenched Changge in his hand.
"What sound can there be, it's nothing more than the sound of the water......"
After scolding a lot of things in his heart, Han Zhu turned his voice sideways again and fell asleep in a daze. Vaguely, he could still be heard talking in his dreams.
The other Han pawn sighed softly and glanced at his companion.
Since four years ago, South Korea's largest military camp, which originally housed almost 100,000 people, began to shrink one after another. Today, there are fewer than 20,000.
This Han pawn knew that the powerful generals had already taken their subordinates to the prosperous Xinzheng. Only those who had no way were left to guard the camp.
Since the news of Ji Wuye's death came, the remaining 20,000 people have slipped away a lot. Even some of the generals have disappeared.
Today's camp is not so much a military camp as a cemetery for a group of people to retire.
"Well, after this year, I'll go home!"
Han Shu glanced at his sleeping companion again, and showed a slightly wry smile.
The cool breeze came from the pavement, which made the Han pawn suddenly sober up a little more.
"Squeak! Chirping! Chirping! ”
The mottled and noisy sound became louder and louder, and even, faintly, the originally quiet river became surging and intense.
Han Zu's eyes widened, and tall masts appeared in front of him in front of him.
"Enemy, enemy attack!"
"Enemy attack!"
Immediately afterwards, the piercing sound of the bell suddenly spread throughout the entire camp.
However, it is not the same as imagined. The warriors, who were supposed to be armed and armored to meet the enemy, panicked and rushed out of their lodging places in disheveled clothes.
"Run! The Qin army is here! ”
The noisy shouts made Han Shu, who had already struck the bell on the watchtower, put down his hand in a daze.
"What's going on?"
Looking at the tower, he clearly looked at the black crowd, constantly rushing towards the south gate. Even, the robes on the other watchtowers also climbed down the watchtower one after another.
"Let's go! What a stunned! The accomplice, who had already been awakened, climbed up the ladder to the general accomplice, suddenly shouted at him. Immediately, regardless of his reaction, he continued to hurry down.
"Whoosh! Sou! Sou! ”
The sharp sound of breaking the sky sounded, and the fire points were getting closer and closer.
"Poof!"
The Han pawn only heard a muffled sound, and then there was a burning heat in his chest, and in front of him, it was dark again.
There was no resistance, and there were not even a few of the Korean troops who were in a hurry. The fortress, which served as a barrier to the north of Korea, was taken by the Qin army with almost zero casualties.
"South Korea, vulnerable ......"
In the night, a man in his thirties, riding on a horse, looked at the messy corpses of Han pawns everywhere, and a slight smile crossed the corner of his mouth.
"General, the enemy has been cleared!" A Qin pawn ran to the man's side, knelt down on one knee and said, his eyes were even more fiery.
"Order the army, and march now! All the captives are not left, and the commander must rest in the nearest city before dawn! Wang Ben took out a military order from his horse, threw it in front of the Qin pawn, and said coldly.
"Whoa!" Qin replied with a loud shout.
"Morale is available!" Wang Ben nodded secretly.
……
Three days later, outside the city of Xinzheng, a series of black and oppressive camps surrounded this ancient city in a half-moon shape.
"Why! Why did the Qin army arrive in Xinzheng, but you still don't know anything! A deep voice sounded in the General's Mansion.
Bai Yifei's blood-colored eyes flashed with a strange light, like a bloodthirsty viper, scanning the generals kneeling down back and forth.
"Hou, Master Hou, this can't be blamed on the last general and others! It's really that those who stayed behind in the big camp by the river are so unbearable that they can't even escape from the person who reported the news! ”
A slightly obese general raised his head slightly and looked at Bai Yifei with a somewhat innocent look.
"Poof!"
A bloody light flashed, and a touch of red appeared between the general's neck. The general covered his neck, looked at Bai Yifei in disbelief, and slowly fell.
"What I want is not for you to shirk your responsibilities here. What I want is how to relieve the danger of Xinzheng! Bai Yifei slowly stood up and walked towards the generals who were still kneeling on the ground, his tone even colder.
"Master Hou, the Qin army came too fast. Besides, at this moment, the hearts of the people in the city are unstable, and most of the grain and straw have been burned by the demon fire of the previous days, not to mention retreating from the enemy, it is impossible to defend it! ”
The other general kept kowtowing as he told this. The still warm blood on the side was left in front of him. Suddenly, the cheeks, hair, and mask were all dyed red.
Bai Yifei was silent, looking at the general, not knowing what he was thinking.
"There was no grain in the barn, so I went to the houses of those untouchables to rob it! There were not enough soldiers, so they forced the untouchables to go up the walls! If you dare to disobey, you will be killed! ”
Bai Yifei's cold voice once again made the generals tremble slightly. Kowtowed one after another, in response.
However, Bai is not just a man who marches and fights after all.
The people's livelihood in Xinzheng has long since withered. Merchants closed the market, and nobles stockpiled grain. How much grain is there in the hands of those civilians? What's more, civilians who have never seen blood and live under the tall walls of Xinzheng all day long can provide him with how much combat power can they provide?
"General, the enemy seems to have driven many civilians to the city wall!" Beside Wang Ben, an adjutant said with a smile.
"Humph! The fighting spirit of the South Korean army has been lost, and at this time it is just relying on the last bit of military discipline to maintain it. Once a war starts, if someone flees in a cowardly fight, it is enough to crush the army! Wang Ben nodded, also showing a hint of a smile.
"Come to think of it, the general is referring to those civilians......"
"Tell me to go down, and I don't have to make a well. Wait for the trebuchet and siege engine to finish, bring some ladders, and you're ready to siege the city! Wang Ben turned the horse's head and said confidently.
"Whoa!"
The adjutant's eyes could not hide the excitement.
Destroying the country, since the Warring States period, has not heard such a word for nearly two hundred years. It won't be long before this monstrous feat will befall them!
