Chapter 206: Sima Wrong's Miscalculation

At a distance of 100 paces, the Qin army did not beat drums or horns. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info, but the distance is too close, but the sound made when walking alone is enough to attract the attention of the defenders in the Linjin Pass.

But at this time, the Wei army defending the city did not make a single move!

From Sima Cuo's point of view, he couldn't see the soldiers on the Linjin Pass at all, all he could see was the weapons erected by the defenders, which were secretly flashing in the middle of the night.

"Could it be a fraud?!" Sima Cuo's brows furrowed. Muttering to himself.

But when I think about it, even if there is fraud, what can I do. According to the news from the scouts, the main force of the Wei army is still a day's journey from here, and even if they rush overnight tonight, they will arrive here at noon tomorrow.

At this time, with the 30,000 defenders in the city, it is not impossible for his more than 70,000 troops to capture the city.

That's right, there are only 30,000 defenders in the city, and the establishment and other Sima mistakes are clear, and how many strong men are temporarily arrested in it, these Sima mistakes are all clear.

Looking at the soldiers of the Qin army who were getting closer and closer to the city, the corners of Sima Cuo's mouth raised, bringing a touch of ruthlessness.

Fifty paces away, and in a few moments you can beat the drum and charge, and then—

No, fifty paces away is the best time to charge at full speed, now, "Beat the drums, charge!" ”

He drew his sword with a thud, raised it high, and shouted with all his might!

Not far away, the drummer had already picked up his drumsticks.

But at the same time as the drums sounded, tens of thousands of archers suddenly appeared on the tower of Linjin Pass!

The bow is like the moon, and the iron arrows are also flashing with the cold of weapons in the dark night, which is enough to see the sharpness of the arrows.

The drums of war have been beaten!

Seventy thousand Qin troops began to shout and charge!

In just fifty miles, Qin Jun only had two breaths to enter the remaining thirty steps.

At this time, many Qin Jun who rushed to the front only felt that the soles of his feet were empty, and the moment the weight of his body was unbalanced, half of his body fell into the trap prepared by Wei Jun.

In an instant, one of the soldiers who was still struggling to charge was pierced through the chest by the sharp thorns installed in the trap. Through the wooden thorns on the back, they have already been stained red with blood, and they still carry half of the minced flesh that I don't know where! A mouthful of blood flowed down the corner of his mouth, and he died instantly.

I don't know how many Qin soldiers encountered this scene, and the traps were like a cemetery prepared for them in advance, with two or one sharp thorn inside, like the cross of Western religions in later generations, and seated these hateful violators.

At the next moment when the Qin army entered the trap area, the 10,000 Wei troops on the city tower who had been hiding under the city wall with their bows and bodies got up, and then Zhang Meng waved his sword and got up, and followed Zhang Meng neatly, and between breaths, all the soldiers released the bowstring in their hands.

Tens of thousands of arrows were fired in unison. The Qin army, which was already a little chaotic because of the trap below, moved much slower while facing the rain of arrows.

Many soldiers with shields in their hands were also unable to raise their shields under the sudden attack of the Wei army.

Arrows are like scythes in the hands of the Grim Reaper. Every arrow that did not enter the body of the Qin army would burst into clusters of blood at the moment when it penetrated the flesh.

Leather armor could not stop iron arrows.

Sima Cuo, who originally thought that the Wei army would hesitate for a moment, and the Qin army would have fewer casualties, was stunned again!

The sharpness of Qin's ordnance can be said to be the highest among the nations.

It is not an exaggeration for the arrows to penetrate some of the armor that is relatively old, but at this time, if you follow the previous understanding, then the armor on the Qin army's side can be updated.

Because as long as the Qin army's foot soldiers were shot, more than eighty percent of them were pierced through the armor by arrows. Directly on the body, a cluster of blood flowers collapsed and died.

Reminiscent of the kind of rolling wood with iron thorns used by the Wei army before, the corners of Sima Cuo's mouth twitched involuntarily, could it be the arrow of the Wei army, and there was also some reform?

In addition to this result, Sima Cuo really couldn't figure out why the Wei army's arrows were so strong.

Although the casualties were extremely heavy, the Qin army did not have the order to withdraw, so they desperately charged hard.

Fortunately, the army only received two waves of arrows from the Wei army and set up the cloud ladder on the city tower. The casualties were not very large.

With an army of 70,000, now that the ladder has been erected on the city tower, the next step is to capture the city. At this point, Sima Cuo still has a lot of confidence in Qin Jun.

The bravery of the Qin army is the first among all nations, but this bravery is regarded by the nations as a tiger and wolf behavior. To put it bluntly, it was the result of the fear of the Qin army in Shandong.

The division of tigers and wolves, isn't it the division of tigers and wolves that you want on the battlefield?

Amid the rumbling drums of war, the Qin army began to scramble to climb the city wall. For them, it is not the enemy on the walls, but military merit! If you have obtained military merits, you can become a nobleman and let your family live a good life.

Under such brainwashing conditions, every Qin army worked extremely hard, even if the Wei army on the city tower had been throwing down boulders and logs one after another.

But none of the Qin army retreated or stagnated.

In the distance, Sima Cuo saw the iron thorn rolling wood that was carried by two Wei soldiers and thrown down from the city tower. Sima Cuo is very interested in the lethality of this thing.

But this will be their own attack, and others will be defensive.

But even so, Sima Coo believed that the soldiers of the Qin army would not back down. He will not be withdrawn again because of this. Because he still has the last hole card that is useless.

The moment the iron thorn rolled down, with a whistling sound, it hung directly on the armor of the Qin soldier, the iron thorn hooked the skin from the shoulder, and the gravity fell, and the skin on the back of the soldier was torn off by force. Red and white flesh were revealed.

"Ahh Blood continued to seep from his back, sliding down his body, and before long, all the clothes on his body were soaked with blood.

The moment he let go of his hand and landed, he let out an amazing roar when his back hit the ground first, and tears couldn't help but ooze from the corners of his eyes. The pain made him instinctively want to bounce, but in the end, after a few rolls, the soldier was tortured to death by the pain!

In the city, Liu Yun had already begun to climb the tower with the rest of the people, and brought all the improvised soldiers to the city tower to defend the city. But 5,000 soldiers were left in the city to defend it.

Late at night, it was impossible for the Wei army not to rest. After all, it was only Zhang Meng's premonition that the Qin army would attack the city tonight.

Because Wu Ming's army was already on the way to help, the Qin army would not attack the city tonight, and it would be too late to attack tomorrow. Therefore, regardless of Zhang Meng's hunch or military calculations, the possibility of the Qin army attacking the city tonight is not small.

But the calculations are not 100% true after all! Therefore, the Wei army, which should be resting, still has to rest.

At this time, suddenly pulling up the soldiers who were still resting is tantamount to needing someone to quickly organize and arrange the corresponding matters of these soldiers.

Zhang Meng is organizing the city defense on the city tower, and all the things in the city can only be handled by Liu Yun.

At this time, when Liu Yun had no time to take care of the defense at the city gate, Fang Hua, the former guard general of Linjin Pass, began to patrol the west gate of the main attack of the Qin army with more than a dozen soldiers!

After about a cup of tea, the defenders at the west city gate were wiped their necks behind them by more than a dozen soldiers led by Fang Hua!

Even among the dead, the bodies of two people were directly interspersed with a spear, and the bodies of the two were tightly pressed together, lying on the ground like skewers.

The next moment, the city gate was smashed open by the Qin army outside. The Qin army, which had opened the door to victory, began to roar and rush in. In just a few moments, no less than two thousand Qin soldiers rushed in.

But at this moment, inside the gate where there were no soldiers, three teams of Wei troops suddenly came out from the three forks.

As soon as they met, the Wei army released the bowstring in his hand, and thousands of arrows fell into the crowded Qin army of more than 2,000 people.

A piece was poured in an instant. The originally noisy city gate became calm in an instant, but the empty ground was covered with a layer of corpses!

Blood and water went down the city gate towards the outside of the city, and more and more blood exchanged for a river, washing away the scene of sin!

Behind the Wei army's military formation, Liu Yun strode out with a serious face! They had already guessed that the Linjin Pass might open the city gate with the enemy, and they also thought that that person might be Fang Hua.

I don't want to be this person! At this time, Fang Hua and the dozen or so guards were also shot into dice by arrows. His face was covered in blood splatters.

The lull lasted only a short moment! Because there are still a large number of Qin troops pouring towards the city gate.

……

Outside the city, Sima Coo looked at the open city gate, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth!

This is the moment he was waiting for!

The drums of war were beaten even louder. The Qin army, which saw hope, also became more and more courageous the more they fought.

……

In the city gate, after two waves of arrows were fired. The Wei army put down their bows and arrows and engaged the Qin army, which came on the ground full of corpses.

"Go and inform General Zhang that the inner line has opened the city gate, and let him put down the jack gate to block the enemy!" In the chaos, Liu Yun pulled a soldier over and commanded eagerly.

There were no more than 5,000 defenders in the city, and some of them had to guard the other gates just in case. There are only three thousand people who can fight the Qin army here! And as time went by, there must have been more and more Qin troops rushing in.

Therefore, the best thing to do is to lower the jack gate and prevent the Qin army from entering the city.

On the city tower at this moment, Zhang Meng had already seen that the city gate had been broken! Before the arrival of that soldier, he had already begun to organize the soldiers to release the jack gate!

But the problem is that there is a problem with the jack gate at a critical time. It's the same as when I was in Yin Jin before, I don't know if I'm stuck by something, I just can't get down.

This made Zhang Meng have to go over and observe it in person. But it must be night, and what the problem is, it may be so easy to fix it in a while and a half.

With the increase of Qin troops in the city. The Wei army defending the city could no longer afford to fight a war of attrition, and all the hidden defeats were revealed.

At the critical moment, Liu Yun didn't care too much, drew his saber and dodged into the combat zone.

Although she is a woman, her hand is not comparable to ordinary people, and this swordsmanship is difficult to have an opponent even if it is afraid of the Yue Kingdom, which is popular in swordsmanship today.

In the chaos, Liu Yun fought with one enemy and three in his hands, but it was the head of the Qin army led by a sword general that flew in the air.

At the broken place of the neck, the blood sprayed like a fountain, red and bewitching.

I don't know how long the stalemate lasted, but just when Liu Yun felt that the Wei defenders around him were getting fewer and fewer, the jack gate on the city gate finally fell.

The iron teeth below were directly interspersed with the heads of the Qin soldiers who rushed into the city, and the weight of the falling directly crushed the soldier from a living person into a pile of rotten meat.

Outside the city, Sima Coo, who was on horseback, was stunned at this moment.

Because he saw that four Wei defenders had fallen from the tower with the jack gate. The city tower has not yet been captured by the Qin army, and it is obvious that these four people were not thrown down by the Qin army. And the four are still alive.

They were slack in order to increase the weight of the jack gate so that the object that was preventing it from falling could not bear the weight. The moment the jack gate fell, even the bricks and stones on the city wall were scattered!

You must know that in this case, choosing to fall with the jack gate is simply looking for death. Below the fall of the four people were the soldiers of the Qin army who were roaring towards the city.

Now the jack gate has blocked the city gate, which can be imagined. Qin Jun's anger was all vented on these four people.

The moment they landed, before they could turn around and stand firmly, the soldiers of the Qin army had already raised their weapons and stabbed out.

Before they even had time to let out a scream, the four Wei soldiers were already dead, and each of them had no less than four blood holes on their bodies.

There are even soldiers, the flesh on their waists is crushed by the weapon, and the moment the weapon is withdrawn, all the internal organs, even the intestines are stirred outside. In the dark, the intestines seemed to be twitching a little.

The gates were sealed from above. At this moment, Sima Coo's heart ached violently when he watched the siege soldiers being smashed down by a large number of rolling logs with iron thorns!

Look up at the sky! After thinking about it for a while, Sima Cuo finally put away his sword, "Mingjin withdraws his troops—"

The next moment, the inspiring war drums in the rear of the Qin army turned into the sound of the golden sound of the troops.

The two sides fought fiercely for nearly an hour. After the Qin army retreated, there were already corpses everywhere outside the west city of Linjin Pass!

The black armor and the red stream are the most conspicuous colors of this land!

The crows that had been hovering for a long time on the branches of the surrounding wilderness flew down on the corpse mountain at this time to feast.

Occasionally, a terrible roar would resound outside the West City. Those were wounded so badly that they could not withdraw from the battlefield at all, and they were forgotten by the army.

The painful roar that came out of the awakening that was stimulated by the pain after receiving the carving of the crow.

But at this time, no one cares whether they live or die. The only thing that awaits me is death.

The Qin army lost nearly 10,000 men in this battle. However, fortunately, the people who rushed to the front were ordinary soldiers, and the newly trained sharps did not suffer many casualties.

Although the Wei army defending the city relied on a large number of city defense equipment and a batch of iron thorn rolling logs transported, it was difficult for the Qin army to climb the city tower.

But after the first battle, more than 6,000 people were lost, of course, the most important of which was the death and injury caused by the opening of the city gate and the Qin army rushing into the city.
