Chapter 437: A Friend Comes from Far Away (3)

The long-lost warm sun shines on the earth, soothing the vicissitudes of life all over the ground, the traces of the battle, vividly, the warriors in the city are still in fear, trembling! Swords and soldiers are everywhere, and people's lives become worthless, either dying on the way to charge or dying at the moment of battle, and the originally rich and prosperous streets have become deserted at this moment.

In the past, the flow of people who came and went, but also because of these four swords, diverted the route, Bashu as the goods of the Chu State to the west, the transit of the western goods to the east, every day to bear the huge trade flow. At this time, the war had already spread, and the merchants on this trade route changed their routes one after another, deliberately avoiding this place of right and wrong.

Bai Qi selected dozens of capable people, changed into the clothes of the Bashu people, pretended to be the servants of Chen Zhuang, and went to the river with them to meet the merchant ships of the Rongdi people. Quietly detoured to the east side of Chengdu, and the group hurried up, striving to meet the scouts of the Rongdi people as soon as possible, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble after the Rongdi people entered Chengdu.

At the same time, the siege troops of the Qin army were also making final preparations, and the craftsmen of the Qin army used a large number of bamboos in this place to make a lot of ladders. The moso bamboo all over the mountains has a length of tens of meters, this kind of length is naturally rare in the north, and there are many moso bamboos, and the tools made are also very simple. Meng said that looking at the countless ladders in front of him, he really felt the combat effectiveness of the Qin army, and did not issue any orders, and the soldiers of the Qin army took materials on the spot and prepared siege equipment for the siege.

As a child of the Mo family, Meng Shuo still sighed a little at himself for such hands-on ability, and was able to complete it independently without anyone urging him, such a major thing was really beyond everyone's imagination. Meng said that he came to the front of the battle first, knowing that at this moment he and the city in front of him must be broken, at this time above the city of Chengdu, Chen Wan's face was somewhat haggard, but his eyes were full of determination.

At this time, his subordinates showed an unconcealable fear in their eyes, and the battle song of the Qin army had already destroyed the defense line in everyone's hearts. At this time, the Qin army in front of them made everyone extremely frightened, fortunately, there were still towering city walls, if not, these people must have already knelt on the ground and begged to surrender.

Chen Wan had already seen Meng Shuo on the war horse, and he knew that this person's kung fu was far above him, but he didn't know what the means of this platoon of troops were there, and he finally had a chance to compete today. I have expectations in my heart, but I also feel very worried, in the Xianyang Palace that day, I am a defeated general, and it is difficult to be a defeated general today. Chen Wan didn't dare to continue thinking about it, he could only win and not lose at the moment, but after thinking about it, even if he was victorious, what could he do? The nobles of the Bashu clan are like mud.

It is difficult to achieve great things at all, the death of Du Yu, the king of Shu, made Chen Wan's heart empty all of a sudden, Taiwei died, the 'wine lady' also died, and even his own brother was missing. Chen Wan's heart was suddenly full of fear, looking at the Qin army under the city, the military appearance was majestic and imposing, and it was even more terrifying.

Meng Shuo under the city naturally didn't know that the guards on the city had already given birth to fear in their hearts at this moment, and on the battlefield, when the two armies were fighting, what they needed was often a spirit that was not afraid of death.

Only those who are not afraid of death are qualified to live, and the slightest change in their hearts will affect the progress of the entire campaign. Meng Shuo waved his thousands of troops and horses, and launched a battle to siege the city and seize land, the Qin army's crossbowmen had already finished arraying, and the commander saw that Meng Shuo had issued an order for a general attack, waving the small flag in his hand and shouting:

"Put!"

Suddenly, the feather arrows of the Qin army covered the sky and covered the sun, and Chengdu, which was still sunny before, was hidden in a gloom at this time, and the people in the city were extremely surprised, how could it be that in a blink of an eye, the sky became dark. The people on the streets, the bureaucrats who participated in the funeral of the King of Shu, and the people in the city, although they were doing different things on different streets, the scene in front of them still surprised everyone.

When everyone looked up, they were dumbfounded, the camp of Bashu outside the city had been occupied by the Qin army, and only a few feather arrows could be shot into Chengdu before, and most of the feather arrows could cover Chengdu at this time. The astonishment on everyone's faces had not yet faded, and they were already doomed to die, and while everyone was amazed, the feather arrow fell from the sky and shot through the body, and before they could scream, they fell to the ground.

Immediately after the second person fell, and the third... Feather arrows poured down from the sky above Chengdu like raindrops, with such speed and density that none of the people on the street were spared. Even the barking yellow dog was shot into a hedgehog, and the feathered arrows poured down on the roof, and the bricks and tiles on the house crackled when they were struck.

The children of the nobility in the house, singing every night, lingering here, hearing such a voice, it was really a little disappointing, and thought it was a hail from the sky, a few people stretched out their heads to visit, the scene in front of them, so that everyone was completely stunned, only to see that the people on the street had been shot into hedgehogs by random arrows, and the blood was on the street, gathering into a small river. The crackling above his head was not a hail at all, but a feather arrow of the Qin army, and the children of the clan who were drunk and dreamed of death exclaimed:

"Run! The Qin army has come in! As he spoke, he ran from upstairs to downstairs, ready to go out and run for his life.

At the same time, those aristocratic clans who were holding singers and tasting fine wine, after hearing the shout, quickly put down their work and wanted to come over to see what was going on. Waiting for this person to run downstairs, ready to run back to his home to hide, Qin Jun's feather arrows came one after another, falling from the sky, the wide courtyard, dozens of meters long, the square patio, in the blink of an eye, like overgrown grass.

The people who ran out were nailed to the ground, and their bodies were full of feather arrows, and in the courtyard, the dense feathered arrows had no place to stand at all, even in the fish pond in the courtyard. The fish that was sleeping under the ice before was also pierced by random arrows and died, and everyone on the platform really didn't expect such a scene.

The singers were screaming in fright, and the drunken children of the clan broke out in a cold sweat at this moment. Fear made everyone's pupils become huge in an instant, and everyone wanted to escape, but after calming down, everyone realized that the room was the safest place at this time.

If you escape, you can only die faster, the feather arrows crackled on the roof, and the bricks and tiles on the roof could not withstand such a huge impact at all, and the earth kept falling from the house. The people inside were trembling with fright, and the disheveled singer was even more frightened at the moment, thinking that these men would be able to protect themselves.

As everyone knows, these people are so frightened that their legs tremble at this moment, regardless of their faces and bodies, they hide under the desk and behind the pillar. His teeth were clenched, his face was blue, beads of sweat kept falling, and there was even one person who seemed to have nowhere to hide, so he actually chose to hide under the crotch of the singer, shivering. The dignified aristocratic clan, when the country is in trouble, actually does not go into battle to fight, but behaves like this, which is really embarrassing! The people in the city were no better, and they were so frightened that they hid at home and did not dare to take half a step. (To be continued.) )
