Chapter 373: The Last Wail of the Qin State
The king of Qin was upstairs in Xianyang City.
Dressed in purple and gold armor and carrying a sword at his waist, King Qin stood on the edge of the city wall, looking out at the skyline.
Under the city walls, on the other side of the moat, on a wide area, countless corpses were scattered.
Disorganized weapons fell sideways, and hundreds of horses looked around with their heads up, blankly.
On the other side of the open area, dense tents are like a line between water and sky, connecting heaven and earth.
King Qin sighed, turned his head, and looked behind him, in the noisy sound, rows of soldiers kept changing crossbow beds, falling rocks and other city protection equipment.
At the corner of the stairs leading to the city, a middle-aged man in armor walked up carrying a wooden box, and it was Wei Qiwu, the commander of the former Eastern Army.
Seeing Wei Qiwu coming, Qin Wangqiang smiled and said, "General, didn't you let you rest for a while?" β
Wei Qiwu shook his head, came to King Qin's side, opened the wooden box, revealed a few plates of side dishes inside, and said, "Wang, eat a little food, the next wave of demons will attack again, and there will be no time to eat." β
King Qin pushed open the wooden box with his right hand, turned around and looked down at the corpses under the city, and said, "General, you say, can our Great Qin support the next wave." β
Wei Qiwu covered the wooden box in silence and stood beside King Qin for a long time before he spoke: "I can't support it." β
"Also, it was all under the command of the little demon princess Dong Yirou before, and she fought steadily and steadily, constantly consuming our Great Qin's equipment and soldiers. The fifth wave has passed, and the soldiers in our Great Qin Xianyang King City have been killed in battle. As long as this wave of attacks is a little stronger, we will have no more manpower to replenish. β
Wei Qiwu nodded.
King Qin said: "What does the general think of the widow all these years? β
Wei Qiwu blurted out: "Wang Li is working hard, although he is a daughter, he is the most outstanding one among the Qin kings in the past dynasties. β
"But Daqin was buried in the hands of widows." King Qin's expression was a little sad, and he said, "The widow doesn't understand, what the widow has done wrong, it will lead my Great Qin to the end of destruction." β
Wei Qiwu silently looked at King Qin's side face, wanting to comfort him, but he couldn't say anything.
This king, who was the same age as his daughter, had a mountain of pressure in his weak body.
King Qin let out a long sigh for a long time, and then said: "General, I'm sorry, the widow has no ability to keep your only flesh and blood." Originally, the widow wanted to pass on the throne to Mu Ning's husband or Xiaofeng, but now, the widow can't do anything. Mu Ning disappeared, and Xiaofeng also came with bad news from the battlefield and died in the battle of Yongcheng. Now, the widow and the general are alone. β
Wei Qiwu said: "Life and death have their own destiny, the famous general has to return the horse leather shroud, Feng'er sacrificed her life for my Daqin, and her subordinates feel that this is her glory." β
"Glorious?" King Qin forced a laugh and stopped abruptly.
I saw a war horse galloping towards the city wall on the edge of the sky.
Wei Qiwu took the bow and arrow from the hand of an archer stationed beside him, and was about to shoot the bow and arrow, King Qin waved his hand and said, "General, forget it, let him come over." β
Wei Qiwu's dark beauty wrinkled slightly, unloaded the strength of the bow, and said to a few soldiers beside him: "Put down the rope and pull the messenger of the demon clan up." β
Two soldiers put down a rope to the city, the war horse stopped by the city wall, and on the war horse, a demon with a horse's head and a human body pulled the rope in his hand, and two Qin soldiers pulled it up to the city wall.
Climbing to the city wall, the horse-headed demon clan bowed towards the King of Qin, and a letter on the ground said: "The captain of the eighth brigade under the command of the Northern Hades King brings a letter written by the little princess Dong Yirou. β
King Qin didn't even open the letter, her face was a little pale, and she bit her lip to speak.
Wei Qiwu suddenly spoke: "Tell your little princess Dong Yirou that King Qin and her army will not surrender. However, if your demons can break through the city gate and kill the last soldier of Daqin, this general Wei Qiwu can vouch for the people in the city, and no one will resist your demons entering the city. β
Bloodthirsty raised his head, took a quick look at King Qin and Wei Qiwu, and said: "Your Qin State's Eastern Army, Northern Army, and Praetorian Guards have all been almost defeated, and all the sons and brothers have already returned to the four kingdoms of Yan, Zhao, Qi, and Chu with their soldiers. If you persist any longer, it will only increase the casualties, and there is no point at all. As an excellent king and general, you should take into account the overall situation and always think about your subordinates and soldiers. β
"A soldier is born to fight for the honor and survival of the country!" Wei Qiwu's face was a little hideous: "Without a country, there is no need for us soldiers to exist." I, Wei Qiwu and the last army of Great Qin, will not choose to retreat because of the strength of the demons. The moment your demons break through the gates, we will perish with the royal city! β
"Daqin is here, Daqin is dead, we are dead!"
Looking at Wei Qiwu and King Qin's resolute appearance, Bloodthirsty Chao King Qin and Wei Qiwu bowed again: "It is worthy of being the master's hometown, you are all heroes like the master." β
After the bloodthirsty finished speaking, he had to say goodbye.
King Qin hurriedly said, "Your master isβ"
"Fengjiu Demon General." Bloodthirsty tract.
King Qin looked at Bloodthirsty with some shock and said, "Then where is your master now?" Will he be present in the next wave of sieges? β
Bloodthirsty shook his head and said, "I don't know where the master went, I only know that the last place where he appeared was in Yongcheng." β
After Bloodthirsty finished speaking, he climbed down the rope under the city wall.
King Qin watched the bloodthirsty figure disappear into the sky again, and was speechless for a while.
Until an hour later, with the deafening sound of military drums, countless demon soldiers hit the sky like a flood that burst the embankment.
On the city wall, all the soldiers of the Qin State moved, and everyone stood by the defensive equipment, preparing to guard against the sixth siege of the demon clan.
Wei Qiwu was just about to pull the back side of King Qin, after all, it was too dangerous to stand by the city wall, and it was very likely that he would be injured by the enemy's cold arrows.
Wei Qiwu of the Qin Dynasty waved his hand, turned around and walked towards the steps of the city wall, and said as he walked: "General, the city wall depends on you, and the widow led the last five hundred forbidden troops to guard the city gate." Once the city is broken, you won't have to come to the rescue of the widows, take the last of the soldiers-"
King Qin originally wanted to say, "Run for your life", but when the words came to his lips, he looked at Wei Qiwu's expressionless face, and changed his words: "Sacrifice the last drop of blood for my Great Qin!" β
"No, King!" Wei Qiwu gave a standard military salute to King Qin.
King Qin's side had just organized five hundred guards to hide in the alley behind the city gate, and the siege force of the demon clan launched the sharpest attack.
Under the city walls, the demon trebuchets bombarded the city walls one after another!
The crossbow machine is like a locust in the sky, harvesting the lives of the soldiers of the Qin State on the city wall!
And on the city wall, the Qin soldiers all kinds of sharp attacks were unleashed towards the city, and under the city, groups of demon soldiers fell.
However, these demon soldiers didn't seem to have the slightest look of fear, and they were not afraid to step on the corpses of their companions to attack under the city wall and attack the city wall!
The soldiers of the demon clan and the soldiers of the relatives suddenly fought for their lives on the city wall.
Blood was pouring out, weapons and corpses were lying on the ground from time to time.
Not far away, hundreds of demon soldiers rushed to the city gate with a huge rushing cart.
"Boom!"
As the rushing car rushed to the city gate, the prince and five hundred guards in the alley behind the city gate looked at the city gate with spears in both hands, with grim faces.
They have already prepared a plan to "the city is in the people, and the city is dead".
