Chapter 170: The Confrontation Between the Two Armies III

Qishan once again ushered in the warm sun of the Gobi, a new day began, all the situation in Qishan is naturally based on the movements of the Han army, Lan Qier and others climbed the city tower early, and observed it in the direction of the Han army.

The generals of the Han army and Wang Guifei also discussed last night, that is, they unanimously decided not to waste time anymore, and the strong attack was put on the agenda, which is today, and the specific implementation is that the five thousand elite soldiers are divided into two parts, one part is still with the two generals to do the appearance of positional warfare, and the other part of the army is fully prepared in the camp, once the position starts, the camp soldiers hear the gongs and drums of the strong siege of the city, they can all bring all the siege ladders and door cars and other necessary things for the siege, and go straight to Qishan City, and the opposing Han army will no longer be positional warfare. They will hug the troops in the Loulan position together, forming a melee in which the Loulan soldiers cannot retreat.

The soldiers who stormed Qishan City were ready, and the two generals of the Han Dynasty brought about 2,000 soldiers and advanced to the not far side of Qishan City again, and began to wave the flag and shout in formation.

Lan Qi'er and the others were on the wall of Qishan, and saw that the generals of the Han Dynasty had already led elite soldiers to line up, ready to fight a positional battle, and there were signs of a decisive battle with the generals of Loulan.

Lan Qi'er and General Lan have a plan in their hearts, their eyes can't just stay at the array of soldiers, they want to comprehensively observe the situation of the Han army, they don't know if they don't observe, Wang Guifei is not in the front line battle today, but appears in the Han barracks, and the Han army With the departure of the two generals, the soldiers in the barracks are not as lazy as yesterday, although they did not stand in line, but they are all wearing armor, as if they are waiting for something?

The father and daughter looked at each other from time to time, and seemed to understand something from the eyes of both sides, so they nodded knowingly.

The Han army has been shouting on the position, waving the battle flag, Lan Qi'er is the empress, she is going to speak, knowing that the Han army must attack Qishan City today, and for a while she has a new idea in her heart, which is different from the practice discussed in the General's Mansion last night, that is, if you know that the Han army will attack Qishan City today, why do you still send the army of the country to fight a positional battle?

Once the positional war starts, the Han army launches a strong attack at this time, will the soldiers who go out of the city still have time to retreat, there are 2,000 Han troops on the opposite side, and it is a well-trained Han army, so the casualties will be great, not only can they not withdraw from the melee, but the officers and soldiers defending the city will be much less, a lot.

Lan Qi'er thought of this, and immediately sent a message to the ministers around her, all the generals look at today's situation, I don't know what you think and what to do?

General Lan and other ministers knelt on the city wall for a while, and said that the ministers were willing to fight for the country and the people.

Lan Qi'er said, okay, today I am convinced that the Han army will definitely attack my Qishan City, as for the battle against it, it will be avoided, and the outside of the pass is not a place I want to protect, so today's generals and ministers, as long as they work together to defend Qishan City, they don't need to go out of the city to fight.

The generals listened to the order, the time to stick to Qishan City has arrived, today General Lan is the general of the city defense, leading the Loulan army and people to stick to the city defense, the Qishan Pass is the life and death throat of the people, I will not leave a step, personally watch my Qishan army to resist the invading Han soldiers, the duties of the ministers I don't need to say more, I believe you all know early, the war is coming, the time for the country and the people has arrived, and now the coordination of war preparation is also an important thing, it depends on the ministers, okay, go down first!

After listening to Lan Qi'er's speech, the ministers obeyed the order, and the ministers retired, went down to the Qishan city wall, and began to coordinate the preparation of war materials and the stability of the people.

Several generals have not yet received the general's order, and they are still kneeling, General Lan knows that the importance of this battle is related to the life and death of all the people, and the time is urgent, so he immediately began to give the general's order.

The first general ordered the general to give it to the general Soha, and ordered the general Soha to lead a thousand soldiers to go down the city wall and guard behind the city gate, informing him that if the Han siege army once there was a threat to the city wall, the pass gate would be opened, and the enemy army would see that the pass gate had been opened, and they would definitely reduce the use of ladders to climb the city wall, so that all the enemy attacks on the same target would be relieved, and the burden on the city wall would be relieved, and the commanding heights would be safe.

The pass is not big, the Han army enters the pass gate, there must not be too many people, and it is mainly ordinary soldiers, the general will be able to destroy them all, and the archers on the city wall can take the opportunity to prepare bows and arrows again to block some of the enemy troops attacking in the later stage.

The second general order was given to the left and right banner generals, and the two generals were ordered to lead 100 elite soldiers and 50 archers to pass through the temporary plank road built some time ago, and climb the mountainside and peaks on both sides of the pass to form a cross bow and arrow point on the opposite pass, and assist the guard pass and the anti-Han army to climb the cliff.

The third general's order was given to Tulong, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and Tulong was ordered to lead the Praetorian Guard out of the palace as a support and supplementary force for the generals, just in case.

General Lan is naturally on the city wall, which is the most important place and a convenient place for command, and then he has to control the archers and crossbow team to control the overall situation, everything is ready, and the generals will start to act!

All the defenses in Qishan City have been completed, and they are waiting for the strong attack of the Han army.

The two elite soldiers led by the two generals of the Han Dynasty have been in front of the pass for half an hour, and they still don't see the movement of Qishan City, knowing that the Loulan army may no longer go out of the city to meet the battle today, they dare not go out to fight, and the generals and generals in the city may be those capable people yesterday.

The two generals of the Han Dynasty were very clear, and then let the soldiers wave their flags and shout would only make the soldiers lose their fighting spirit, so they gave the order of the Han army to assemble, the gongs and drums of the Han army sounded, Wang Guifei naturally led the soldiers in the barracks to turn with them, and the formation of the strong attack has been formed, and for a while I waited for the order of the Han general, in fact, this general order is not to command the Han army, but to both sides, both sides are to act, just two directions.

The Han army was attacking, and the soldiers in Qishan were naturally defensive.

Han general Xia Yuan looked at Qishan City from time to time, and his heart was also very clear, this city pass is not an ordinary simple city defense, Loulan soldiers are weak, but this pass is a natural barrier, enough to make up for the weakness of the army, the arrow has been placed on the full bow, it will be sent, can only see whether the Qishan Pass is indestructible or the strength of the Han army.

Xia Yuan looked at Guan Qing and Wang Guifei again, the three of them nodded to each other, and shouted out the general order to storm Qishan City in unison, and the Han army began to advance under the cover of the arrow blocking vehicle and the siege ladder vehicle, and quickly rushed to the Qishan Pass.

The soldiers in Qishan City also got the general's order for a while, the archers were full of bows, and they waited for the Han soldiers to arrive at the range, and the general Suo Haring soldiers were ready to meet it, and the generals on both sides of the pass saw that the Han army had arrow blocking vehicles in the process of advancing, and realized that the power of the archers on the city wall would be limited, and it seemed that the archers under their command had to exert their full strength, shooting from the mountain to the mountain, which was impossible for ordinary arrow blocking vehicles to defend, so that the bows and arrows on the mountainside and the top of the mountainBows were drawn and 100 soldiers were selected.

Under the leadership of Xia Yuan and Guan Qing, the Han army has pushed the arrow car, and the ladder car is approaching the Qishan Pass, which is less than 200 meters away from the pass, which is not enough for the archers on the city wall to exert their power, one is a little far, and the other is that the Han soldiers are hiding behind the siege vehicles, so they can only wait.

The archers on the mountain led by the generals of the left and right banners can reach an effective distance, and in order to change the degree of confidence and pressure of the Han army, they began to wave the flag to signal to General Lan Da and ask for battle.

General Lan and Lan Qi'er saw it on the city wall, saw the advancing Han army, and at the same time saw the general banner of the left and right banners and the general banner of the battle, and knew that the enemy army had reached the range of the archers on their hills.

General Lan is the general of the city defense, although Lan Qier is the empress, but now she can only stand for the soldiers to cheer and stabilize the army's heart, the general has seen the enemy's advance speed and defense system, and knows that now is the best time for the archers on the mountain to exert their might, once the archers on the mountain shoot the arrows, the enemy camp will be in chaos, which means that the enemy will attack wildly, only in this way can the archers on the city wall better exert their power, so they immediately issued a general order, can fight head-on, blocked.

The left and right flag generals saw the flag of General Landa, and immediately gave the order to block the attack, the archers on the mountain can have as many as 100 people, the archers fired a hundred arrows for a time, this arrow is equivalent to falling from the sky, so that the Han army has no warning, although the enemy army has an arrow blocking car, blocking the arrow ladder car, this car can only block the arrow in front, it is unable to block the flying arrow, for a time the enemy was shot by the flying arrow and injured as many as fifty or sixty people, some died, most of them lost their combat effectiveness, and began to shout because of pain.

General Han is in the rear, of course, he understands it, he sees it clearly, the arrow is shot from the mountainside and the top of the mountain, and he knows the origin of the arrow, but for a while the Han army can not have a better way to correspond, because the Han army cannot climb the mountainside and the top of the mountain in a short time, and can only use a shield to protect the arrows flying from the sky, which leads to the slow advance of the Han army, and the casualties are increasing!
