Chapter 589: If the Three Thousand Tigers Are Still Alive
"These chariots are the most elite shield soldiers of the Qin army, and once we open the city gate, these shield soldiers will rush to the front to protect the chariots." Storm Luan said helplessly.
It's not that he doesn't want to, but he really doesn't do it!
If others know it's impossible, they'll try it.
But Storm Luan is different, from childhood to adulthood, he followed his father to fight with the Qin army, not a hundred but fifty times, can he still understand the Qin army's combat mode?
Originally, the combat effectiveness of the Korean army was not as good as that of the Qin army, not to mention that the Qin army was still numerically crushed.
Even if thousands of Korean troops were buried outside the city, they would not be able to break through the defensive line of the Qin army, let alone destroy the chariots.
"If these chariots are not destroyed, the Qin army will be able to fill the moat in half a month at most." Zhou Jiang said in a deep voice, the moat is gone, and the royal city is equivalent to half of it.
"Even if we don't have a moat, we can rely on the walls to defend it." Storm Luan said.
If you want to say who wants to defeat the Qin army the most, in addition to the Western Zhou Kingdom, it must be Korea.
After all, most of Sanchuan County in South Korea was still in the hands of the Qin State.
This is also the reason why the Qin State sent reinforcements, and he was the only one in the Three Jin Dynasty who proposed a night attack.
To put it mildly, the knife has not yet been cut on Zhao and Wei, but it has already been cut on Korea.
Whenever there is half hope, he will agree to Zhou Jiang's proposal.
But it's impossible!
Not to mention half of the hope, it is not in Chengdu.
He couldn't have sent these men to his death.
"I'll go and report to the king and ask him to ask Zhao Jun and Wei Jun to help." Zhou Jiang turned around and walked towards the city.
Storm Luan disagreed, and he had no choice, at this time, the Western Zhou Principality did not dare and could not offend Storm Luan.
Storm Luan sighed and didn't stop it.
If Zhou Jiang doesn't let him try, he won't give up.
Even if the Zhao and Wei armies were able to break through the Qin army's defense line and destroy these chariots, the losses would be extremely heavy.
You Western Zhou Kingdom can't come up with the price to make up for Zhao Wei's losses.
Just by virtue of the righteousness of the world, the lips are dead and the teeth are cold.
How could Zhao and Wei agree?
"Damn, if only there were exploding arrows, or strong crossbowmen, as many carts as they wanted." Storm Luan looked at the moving carts under the city and said angrily.
With the terrifying destructive power of the strong crossbowmen, coupled with the accompanying hit effect, even the chariot can penetrate, and it is useless for the Qin army to hide in the chariot, and they will still be shot to death.
Although the Burst Arrow is not as lethal as the Crossbowman, it can destroy the structure of the Bolt by exploding upon hit.
If one of the two is there, it won't be the turn of the car.
However, the crossbowmen have died out.
There was a legion in Korea that had the talent for Burst Arrows, but Storm Luan didn't bring it.
After all, the archer legion needs to rely on the protection of other legions, and if it is sold by the two armies of Zhao and Wei, there is no place to cry.
It's better to bring someone with a strong ability to save your life and escape.
It is better to teach me to sell the people of the world than to teach the people of the world to sell me.
The result is now embarrassing.
Violent Luan does not have the ability of Wang Yu to change the talent of the army at any time.
Even if it is Wang Di, whether he can train the talent of Burst Arrow is a question.
Don't look at the fact that there are a lot of archers in every country, in fact, there are very few really elite archers.
Because elite archers need to be fed with a lot of arrows, these are all money, and there is no way to make it quickly, and you really get what you pay for.
Most archers were only able to draw their bows and shoot arrows, which was about the same level as mounted infantry.
Outside the city, more than 100,000 Qin troops were waiting for them, and the breath of slaughter imprisoned the entire sky, and even birds did not dare to fly over from above.
Zhang Ruo stood on the chariot, cloaked in stubbornness, and looked at Wang Cheng calmly.
As early as the reign of King Huiwen of Qin, Zhang Yi set a strategy for Qin to capture Sanchuan, but at that time, Qin's strength was still insufficient, and he did not dare to risk the world's condemnation, so he could only attack Bashu and accumulate strength.
Now, decades have passed, and the long-cherished wish of the ancestors and ancestors will finally be fulfilled in his hands.
The dense arrows tilted down towards the Qin army like raindrops, and even with the protection of the chariot, the Qin army continued to fall to the ground with arrows, and the chariot was full of arrows, like a huge hedgehog moving on the ground.
"The Korean army learned that our army did not have enough arrows, so they sent arrows to our army."
Zhang Ruo smiled and ordered the carts to be withdrawn, and the arrows on them were removed before re-attacking the city.
These arrows are well-made, and most of them can continue to be used, and the Qin army of the province has created them themselves.
These are all money, and it is a little bit to save a little, and the economy of Qin has not been very good in recent years.
If Zhao Guo knew that the arrows he had worked so hard to make were given to Qin Jun by Han Jun in this way, he didn't know how to feel.
After a while, the number of arrows shooting down from the city began to decrease, and it was clear that the Korean army was aware of the problem.
"General Wang, prepare to attack. Catapults, bed crossbows for cover. Zhang Ruo seized the opportunity and ordered the siege to begin.
"The whole army will attack, and the first to ascend will be promoted to the third level and given five hundred gold."
Wang Yi pulled out his long sword from his waist and swung it forward, and the red war clouds spread like flames around Wang Ji as the center.
Wherever it spread, the aura of the Qin army began to skyrocket.
It's not just a surge in momentum, but a surge in physical fitness.
Wang Di's talent is very powerful, as long as he does not defeat the enemy army, he can increase his attack power in the next attack without any side effects, the only limit is the upper limit of the soldier's endurance.
After several months of continuous superimposition, Wang Di's bonus to the Qin army almost reached the limit that the soldiers could bear.
Especially the thousands of Qin troops behind Wang Yi, the muscles on their arms bulged high like a hill, almost bursting the armor, and their bodies exuded a slight red light, red through purple, purple in purple, purple in purple.
"Kill!"
The Qin army roared and swept towards the royal city.
At this moment, the royal city and the defenders on it have turned into meritorious deeds in the eyes of the Qin army, and have become a stepping stone for them to be promoted to the rank of knight.
"It's better to see than to hear. I had only heard that General Wang Di had a strong talent, and that there was no enemy army that could not be defeated, and that there was no city that could not be attacked, and I still didn't believe it. When I saw it today, it really lived up to its reputation. Zhang Ruo exclaimed.
His talent has no special effects, but only passive effects, which can increase the centripetal force of his subordinates, whether it is the guardian of a county or the lord of an army.
Although it is also very easy to use, it is far inferior to Wang Yi in terms of momentum.
Originally, he had a great grasp of capturing the royal city, but after seeing Wang Di's ability, he had an even greater grasp.
No wonder Qin Wangji would rather offend some ministers than keep Wang Ji.
"The big marshal praised it falsely, but it was just a false rumor, if there is really no city that cannot be attacked, now the whole world belongs to my Qin State, why is it still at the foot of the royal city." Wang Yi smiled bitterly.
His talent can indeed bring a great boost to the army, which is what he has always been proud of, but these improvements are not omnipotent, and sometimes even bring blind confidence to the soldiers, and they are caught by the enemy.
The wind swept the war clouds, and the sea of fire that covered the sky and the sun pressed down towards the royal city, as if it could destroy the entire royal city.
The soldiers looked at Qin Jun nervously, and their hands tightly grasped their weapons.
At this moment, only the weapon in his hand can bring them a little safety.
"Is this the true strength of the Qin army? It was this Qin army that we defeated at that time? A Korean soldier muttered.
He couldn't believe that he could defeat such a Qin army!
"Even if it is defeated, it will be defeated by the Zhao army and the Wei army, at most we will not be holding back." The centurion next to him pouted.
The people around nodded thoughtfully, at that time, Zhao Jun and Wei Jun were both advantages, but Han Jun was a disadvantage.
If it weren't for Zhao Jun's timely support, he would have fled.
"We are allies, we defeated the Qin army together, not one less. And if we can defeat the Qin army once, we can defeat the second time. Storm Luan glared at the centurion fiercely and said loudly, barely pulling his morale back.
"Shoot the arrows! Don't let the Qin army cross the moat. ”
With the order of Storm Luan, all the Han troops opened their bows and arrows, and the overwhelming feather arrows pierced the long wind and shot down those Qin soldiers who were attacking the royal city.
"Raise your shield!"
Chen Zhuang gave an order, and all the Qin soldiers raised their big shields in unison.
"Damn!" Storm Luan slapped his thigh angrily.
He now finally felt how disgusting the legion his father had trained, not only for the enemy, but even more for himself.
All abilities are added to life-saving, and the arrows shot can't even penetrate the shields and armor of the Qin army, let alone kill and injure, even the Western Zhou army is inferior.
"Lose your bow and arrows, change your bed and crossbow." Storm Luan looked at the Qin army's bed crossbow under the city and said in a deep voice.
But not only you Qin have bed crossbows, but the power of our Korean bed crossbows is even higher than your Qin country, in order to facilitate the defense of the city, Bang Luan has transferred two hundred bed crossbows from South Korea.
Soon, the bed crossbow was lifted up from the rear, and the Korean soldiers skillfully loaded the huge crossbow arrows that exuded chill into the crossbow machine.
Each crossbow bolt was the size of a short gun, and with the sound of pulling the trigger, the sound of breaking through the air resounded across the battlefield.
"Bang bang bang!"
The huge crossbow arrows instantly pierced the shield and armor, and the sharp arrows ruthlessly pierced the chest of the Qin army, piercing several people and then sinking into the ground.
Some of the crossbow arrows sank deep into the cart, and the tails of the arrows shook violently, making a buzzing sound.
"Hey, it's not a crossbowman after all." Storm Luan sighed.
If it is a strong crossbowman, it is not as simple as not entering the car, but directly killing the Qin soldiers in the car.
"Don't stop, keep charging, after getting closer, the bed crossbow of the Korean army will be useless!" Chen Zhuang said loudly.
The surviving Qin army suppressed the fear in their hearts, and under the leadership of Chen Zhuang, they quickly rushed to the front of the moat, set up a ladder, and prepared to climb over.
"Did the Qin army start attacking without even tempting?" The adjutant exclaimed.
"When, still tempting? Did you fight in vain in the previous months? Storm Luan glanced at the deputy general and said sharply, "The bow team is ready, and I will aim at the Qin army on the moat." ”
The bed crossbow is not easy to hit the enemy at close range under the city, but the Korean army not only has a bed crossbow, but also a hand crossbow, which can be aimed as long as you stand on the city wall.
The Western Zhou army did not stop attacking, although they were inferior to the Qin army, they could be regarded as having experienced the baptism of war, and under stable play, their lethality was even higher than that of the Han army, which was affected by talent.
The Western Zhou Army, which cooperated with the Zhao Army and the Wei Army, had been trained by Le Cheng and Mang Mao to develop their talents.
Although the Western Zhou army was basically a strong man requisitioned from the city, it had also experienced several months of war, and its spiritual will had been baptized.
And they are all natives of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and they still have a sense of identity with the Western Zhou Kingdom.
In addition, when the national disaster is at the head, unite as one, don't say an elite talent, it is possible to go further.
It's a pity that the Western Zhou Kingdom didn't even have a decent general, and the Western Zhou Jun only dared to hide behind, and the King of Zhou was even more motionless on the bed, blind to such a good opportunity.
If it weren't for the special period of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, in any other period, the Western Zhou Kingdom would have been destroyed countless times.
Under the blows of the Han army, the Qin army continued to fall to the ground with arrows, and the closer to the city wall, the smaller the number of Qin troops, and at the bottom of the city wall, there was not a single Qin army.
The Qin army that went forward and followed was like a moth to a fire, knowing that it was dead, but no one retreated.
Perhaps, it is for the belief in the heart.
Or maybe they don't have any other choice.
"Push twenty more carts." Zhang Ruo ordered.
"This is more than half of our army's chariot, if Sanjin goes out of the city......" Wan said with some concern.
He had fought with the Sanjin many times, and he knew that the Sanjin was powerful, and if the Sanjin were desperate to destroy these chariots, it would be difficult for the Qin army to stop them.
Once these chariots were destroyed, the time for the Qin army to take the royal city would be at least doubled, and the casualties would be greatly increased.
"Don't worry, Sanjin won't go out of the city, even if he goes out of the city, Ben will let him go and never return." Zhang Ruo said confidently.
He had feared that the South Korean army would have the ability to destroy these carts from a distance, but after some probing, he was almost certain that the South Korean legion with the talent for bursting arrows was not here.
In that case, there is no need to hide.
It has been several months since Qin attacked Wangcheng, and although the logistics can still support it, Qin Wangji is already a little impatient.
There is also a group of conservatives in Xianyang who are chattering about winning as soon as possible, so as to silence these people.
Facts have proved that Zhang Ruo was not wrong.
After receiving the request of the Duke of Western Zhou, Le Cheng and Mang Mao decisively refused.
Are you kidding!
Not to mention that the Qin army's main attack was on the defense line of the Korean army, that is, on the west of the city, it was impossible for the Zhao army to destroy these chariots at the risk of annihilation.
This is the Luoyi Guard, not the Handan Guard!
Lao Tzu can't be so desperate.
"If the three thousand tiger ben are still there, why are the widows afraid of the Qin State, and why is the Great Zhou here!" The Duke of the Western Zhou couldn't help but feel sad from it, and his heart was full of infinite desolation.
"Your Majesty, since the three Jin are unwilling to help, then the general will personally lead the army to destroy these chariots." Zhou Jiang gritted his teeth and said.
"How sure is Aiqing?" Western Zhou Jun's eyes lit up, and he grabbed Zhou Jiang tightly with both hands, as if he was grasping the last glimmer of hope in the Western Zhou Kingdom.
"Less than 10 percent." Zhou Jiang lowered his head, not daring to look at Xi Zhoujun.
The light in Xi Zhoujun's eyes was instantly annihilated.
If it's less than one percent, isn't that just death?
In this case, it is better to keep these troops to defend the city, at least for a while.
"This matter is a long-term discussion, you can go back first." Xi Zhoujun waved his hand and said.
"No." Zhou Jiang surrendered.
Xi Zhoujun sat on the couch and looked bitterly at the outside of the hall, and two lines of turbid tears slowly slipped from the corners of his eyes.
Five hundred years ago, during the Dog Rong Rebellion, the Zhou Dynasty was able to move from Haojing to Luoyi, but now there is only the land of projectiles, where can it be moved!
