Chapter 53: The Bloody Battle in Yuzhong (3)
The first day of the assault ended with the retreat of the Qiang, the earth under the walls was stained black and red with blood, and the young grass buds that had just emerged had been trampled to pieces, and only a few of them were particularly lucky enough to stand tall and sway in the wind among the corpses.

In the wounded barracks in the city, many seriously injured Qin soldiers are in the low **, there are only some wound medicines to stop bleeding in the army, and the doctors can only do some simple bandaging, as for whether they can survive in the end, they can only rely on the resistance of the wounded soldiers themselves, and the rest can only depend on whether God favors them.
Noah sat in the big tent with a gloomy face, the attack during the day suffered a lot of losses, the two phalanxes were a full 5,000 people, and they were all lost in the attack on the first day, and the city of Yuzhong was thick and thick, and it was not known how many lives would have to be used to fill it if it was to take it.
Seeing that the head man's face was unswerving, the high priest of the Qiang tribe Ba Tan reached out and touched his beard, and said with a smile: "The head man doesn't have to be anxious, tomorrow the people of the Yue clan will join us, and when the time comes, let them also fight a dozen and see the situation." ”
Noah rubbed his head anxiously and said, "What I'm worried about is not whether I can win Yuzhong, but how much it will cost." After taking Yuzhong, can we withstand the counterattack of the Qin army, after all, the main force of the Qin army is not here, and Mengwu is our fierce enemy. ”
Ba Tan said with a smile: "This alliance with the Yue Clan, to put it bluntly, is just to use each other, each takes what he needs, the combat power of the Qin State is the head of the Seven Kingdoms, we can't gamble on the fate of the entire Qiang Clan, and fight hard with them." Therefore, after taking Yuzhong, we can negotiate peace with Qin, and Qin's attention is focused on the six surrounding countries, and they have no time to take care of us, and they will definitely agree to our request, so that we can accumulate strength in the west and wait for the opportunity to move, and..." ”
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning illuminated the arrow tower on the city of Yuzhong, the camp of the Qiang people outside the city shouted that the horses were neighing, just yesterday evening, the army of the Yue clan and the Qiang people joined forces together, the battalion was more than ten miles, the strong military might swept away the sluggish atmosphere of yesterday's defeat, on the empty grassland, the army of the Yue clan in white armor was assembled early, the strong drummer beat the passionate drum, and the army of the Yue clan slowly approached the city wall under the cover of the giant shield.
Noah and the head of the Yue clan Grumu sat in the big tent, listening to the drums outside, Noah smiled and said to Grumu: "Look at the strong soldiers of the Yue clan, I want to come to the eldest brother this time, and bring all the elites in the tent." ”
Grumu shook his head with a smile and said: "If you want to talk about the elite, how can my Yue Clan's tent soldiers be comparable to your Qiang wolf cavalry, if it weren't for you to save face for your brother, I want to come to this Yuzhong City was broken by you yesterday, haha!" ”
"Alas, the eldest brother is modest." Noah waved his hand, lowered himself and picked up a bowl of milk wine, and said to Grumu: "Here, I wish the eldest brother a victory, do it!" ”
Jiang Lei is one of the first veterans to follow Yingguang, and now he is already the personal guard of the Dian Army, yesterday's big battle, the Dian Army lost more than 1,000 people, and after returning to the camp at night, the commander selected 1,000 people from the young and strong in the city to make up for it, saying that as long as they go through the baptism of war, these people can quickly grow into a qualified soldier. As for how many of these young people can survive, everyone knows in their hearts, but everyone also knows that now that there is the protection of veterans, the loss of these people will be reduced as much as possible, and if you wait until the veterans are exhausted, and then send these people, it will be equivalent to sending these people to death.
At this time, Jiang Lei's side was a recruit, looking at the dense white armor under the city, the recruit's face was pale, his legs trembled unconsciously, and he couldn't take a step. In this state, needless to say, once engaged, death is the only result. Jiang Lei patted him on the shoulder vigorously, pointed to the camp where the corpses were stacked in the city, and said, "See, if you don't try your best to fight to the death, you, I, will have to lie there in the end!" Seeing that the recruit's face was even paler, Jiang Lei smiled, pressed his head on the battlements, pointed to the Yue's phalanx outside the city, and said with a smile: "It's okay, there are so many people to bury for you, what else is there to be afraid of!" Even if you die in battle, you are still a hero, your brothers and sisters will live a good life because of your efforts, your parents will be respected by everyone, and your name will be engraved on the archway of the ancestral hall to receive eternal incense, is it worth it? It's worth it! ”
The recruit's face was flushed by what Jiang Lei said, and he still looked trembling just now, although his legs were still trembling, his eyes were much firmer. Jiang Lei smiled with satisfaction, as long as the first shot is stabbed, these rookies will forget all their fears, there is a strong city to rely on, and there is still a great hope that they will survive.
The Yue's army copied the achievements of the Qiang people yesterday, they climbed the city wall several times, and were driven down again and again, each time they let the Yue's people see hope, and then broke it again and again. Grumu's face was heavy, he had already sent his general Su Ge, Su Ge was also very competitive, and successfully climbed to the top of the city, just when Grumu breathed a sigh of relief, the majestic figure of the army appeared in front of Su Ge, Su Ge was much stronger than yesterday's Sgru, and it took half a cup of tea to be chopped down the city wall by the army with an axe.
The general was beheaded, the momentum of the Yue's army had been dissipated, and seeing that it was impossible to disobey, Grumu stopped the senseless tactics of adding fuel and Mingjin withdrew his troops.
The big tent is dull, can do the head of a clan, none of them is simple, Grumu glanced at Noa lightly, yesterday the Qiang people lost their troops, they know, but as soon as they met, Noah was extremely flattering to the ability, the Yue's account soldiers praised the sky is rare, unparalleled on the ground, so that Grumu had to send troops to fight alone, it turns out that the opposite Qin defenders are indeed an elite in the Qin army, two days of bloody battles, the defense in the city is not chaotic at all, there is no sign of a little bit of lack of strength, this battle is not very easy to fight.
The generals in the tent are arguing with me every word, and turning it over and over is nothing more than taking human lives to fill in, these people are good at fighting in the field, but when it is their turn to attack the city, none of them have an idea.
The high priest Batan saw that the discussion in the tent was almost over, and then he spoke: "Two leaders, I have a plan to destroy the middle city of Elm!" ”
Noah's eyes lit up, and he asked with interest, "What is the high priest's opinion?" ”
Grumu interjected: "If you still use human lives to fill it, there is no need to say it, tomorrow our clan will attack the city with you." ”
Batan smiled: "It's natural to attack the city together, but my strategy doesn't need to take a lot of lives to fill it, we only need..."
After some deliberation, Noah slapped his thigh excitedly, and Grumu next to him also showed a smile line, "Just according to what the high priest said!" Attack Yuzhong City again tomorrow! ”
(My father's illness is temporarily under control, and it is still relatively stable, and the results will not be known until Monday, and there is only one shift these days, Yingguang is here to thank you for your support, thank you!) )
