Chapter 062: People are in the city
In the phalanx of the Chu army, in the frontier area, the flag covers the sky, and the spear is like a forest.
The general of the Chu army, Zuo Sima Shen Yinshu looked at this city that had not been attacked for a long time, and couldn't help but sigh: "Miscalculation, miscalculation!" ”
"I thought that the new king of Wu was just established, and the people's hearts were fluctuating, and they were unbearable to fight. I didn't expect that the 80,000 divisions of my Chu State would be frustrated by this small Luzi City! ”
This is something that the Chu people never expected.
For Shen Yinshu, it is unreasonable and expected!
Long before Ji Zha envoy Chu, He Lu had already sent an envoy to Yingdu to lobby the king of Chu.
According to the prior discussion, the state of Chu and the state of Wu entered into a non-aggression pact to temporarily stabilize the Wu people, and then secretly dispatched troops by surprise to cross the river to raid the first line of Wu.
Only by laying this bridgehead can the Chu army gain a firm foothold in the land of Wu!
It's just that I didn't think that Wu Guo still didn't relax his guard, and the speed of deploying troops was extremely fast, and the resistance was so tenacious.
Wu Chu's feud is not shared!
Long before the Chu State attacked Wu, Shen Yinshu had repeatedly said that the Wu people were strong in blood and hatred of the Chu State, and this time was probably not a good opportunity to attack Wu.
Guy Shen Yinshu was a minister of Wu in his early years and knew the temperament of the Wu people very well.
For a strong enemy, it is impossible for the Wu State to give in easily!
Especially the Chu State, which has a deep blood feud with the Wu State, the Wu people are even more unyielding.
However, Shen Yinshu's words are obviously not enough to win the trust of the Minister of Chu headed by Ling Yin Nangwa!
Because almost all the magnates of the Chu State believed that Qing Ji was the only one to expel the Lu and perform the crown ceremony, the internal turmoil of the Wu State was in turmoil, and now was a good time for the Chu State to go east and be ashamed.
Shen Yinshu was helpless, and was appointed as a general, commanding 80,000 soldiers, horses, boats, and divisions to conquer Wu State.
At this time, the right Sima Miji on the side said in a deep voice: "General, the last general thinks that the Wu army in Luzi City at this time is already the end of the strong crossbow!" ”
"Our Chu army has besieged the city of Luzi for seven days, and has been fighting day and night, and the enemy's arrows, stones, and rolling logs in the city are no longer many, and the casualties are huge."
"The last general has observed in the past two days that the Wu army has demolished the adobe houses in the city and used all the available stones to serve as equipment to defend the city!"
"Moreover, there are still a lot of Wu State Li Shu figures on the city, and the defenders of Luzi have almost collapsed, and under the onslaught of my Chu division, they can't hold on for much time."
Shen Yinshu bowed slightly, expressing his approval.
Through this seven-day fierce battle, he also found that the defenders of Wu in the city were declining day by day!
The Chu army relied on the strength of the crowd and besieged the city day and night, and while suffering heavy casualties of its own, how could it not inflict heavy losses on the Wu army defending the city?
Not to mention anything else, once the Wu army does not even have such killing weapons as arrows, stones, and rolling logs, it will be powerless to defend the city.
After all, without those weapons that can be used for long-range attacks, the Wu army in the city needs to engage the enemy in close combat and start a fierce white-knuckle battle!
At that time, how could the Wu army, which had the door wide open, be able to defeat the wolf-like army of Chu?
However, the stubborn resistance of the army and the people of Luzi was so tragic that Shen Yinshu never expected.
In order to resist the strong attack of the Chu army, Luzi Lishu did not hesitate to demolish his own house, and used stones, beams, pillars and other things as killing weapons, causing a certain degree of damage to the Chu army.
Not only that, but the people of Wu also went into battle in person!
They have gone from being porters of the people who carried the baggage to soldiers who took up arms to resist, and even more, some of the able-bodied women had already gone into battle.
It can be imagined how much the people of Wu hate the Chu people!
The actions of the Luzi people really made many Chu soldiers doubt their lives.
"Right Sima, we can't be sloppy."
Shen Yinshu stood on top of the chariot, looked at the two armies of Wu and Chu who were fighting fiercely in the distance, and said, "In a few days, the main army of Wu will arrive at Luzi!" ”
"We must capture the city of Luzi before the army of the Wu State arrives, otherwise all the efforts made by our Chu State before will be in vain."
"What the Admiral said is very true."
Mi Ji bowed slightly.
"If the main force of the Wu people wants to reinforce Luzi, they must take the waterway. Right Sima, I bother you to lead the boat division to block the road of the Wu army first, waiting for the opportunity to move! ”
"No!"
Mi Ji immediately took the order and left.
At this time, at the head of the city of Luzi, the guard general Heifu sits here, urging his own soldiers to resist the enemy!
"Huh!"
Heifu wielded a bronze sword stained with blood in his hand, sealing his throat with a sword, killing a Chu pawn who climbed up the ladder to the top of the city.
Immediately afterwards, several soldiers of the Chu army who had already ascended to the top of the city nearby, seeing Heifu wearing gluttonous armor and looking different, knew that this was a "big fish"!
"Kill!"
The red-eyed Chu soldier immediately raised his spear and stabbed towards Heifu.
Heifu was not afraid, and threw the bronze sword with his backhand, and with a "poof", the broadsword passed through his chest, and a bewitching blood flower bloomed on the chest of a Chu soldier opposite.
The three Chu soldiers had already been killed, and Heifu immediately stood up with a long ge, and suddenly exerted his strength to hit the bronze spear that stabbed over, and then Ge was like a dragon, or stabbed, or picked, or split, and immediately eliminated all the enemies!
"Whoosh!"
"Poof!"
Leng Buding shot an arrow, and Heifu was caught off guard, and a bloody hole was shot out of his arm!
"General!"
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Wu army around couldn't help but be shocked, and hurriedly rushed to Heifu's side, holding their shields high to protect them from the cold arrows of the Chu army from shooting again.
Heifu just gritted his teeth, clutched his bleeding arm, and sat down on the ground, gasping for air.
Several soldiers nearby wanted to help Heifu up and send him to the rear for treatment, but Heifu just waved his hand and said, "It's okay." ”
Then, Heifu, who didn't talk much, actually gritted his teeth, grabbed his hand around the arrow inserted in his arm, and then broke it with a "click"!
More blood flowed out, but Heifu just snorted, his face showing the size of a bean's sweat, and his expression was quite hideous.
"Is there any news coming from the royal capital?"
Hefu asked the general on the side again.
"General, even if there is an edict from the king, I am afraid that the messenger will not be able to enter the city."
The general gritted his teeth with hatred and said: "The Chu barbarians have surrounded the city, and they keep attacking like crazy, and in the long run, the last general is only afraid of ......"
"What's there to fear?"
Heifu smiled heroically and said, "It's nothing more than death!" The second and third sons, don't pity yourself, behind us, there are the great rivers and mountains of Wu Kingdom, thousands of fathers and villagers, and the king of the second and third sons! ”
"Even if a certain battle is killed, there are two or three sons, and the second and third sons die in battle, and there is also Li Shu in this Luzi City!"
"People are in the city, people are dead in the city! Ladies and gentlemen, if the Chu barbarians want to capture the city of Luzi, they must first step on the corpses of the second and third sons! ”
"No!"
"People are in the city, people are dead in the city!"
Above the city, the soldiers of the Wu army who were in a desperate situation couldn't help but shout loudly, and they were angry and angry, and a tragic momentum dispersed.
It's like the Wu Army's flags that have been planted on the city's heads, but are still fluttering in the wind!
