Chapter 279: Escape

After the captives were killed.

The next day, after dawn, King Yu Cheng looked at the Qin army outside the city in fear.

At this moment, under the command of Li Xin, the Qin army was preparing to pull out the only cannon that had been carried.

Well, if you attack the city with your own soldiers, if you use your own soldiers to carry out the ant-attached siege, then it will only lead to one result - heavy losses.

Therefore, Li Xin and the others naturally wanted to use artillery to bombard the city.

Although there is only one cannon, this cannon, as long as the bombardment continues, it will not take long to successfully blast through the city wall not far away.

At that time, the army will be able to drive straight into the city, and completely destroy the king of Yucheng and the army in the city!

As soon as the day dawned, in the air, the rumbling cannon sound suddenly rang out, one after another outside the city.

As the cannonball hit the city wall, for a while, the shaking of the ground and the shaking of the mountains came, and the Dawan army on the city wall, which had experienced a fiasco, was low in soldiers, and the soldiers under it were getting lower and lower, and some soldiers were not even willing to stick to the city wall.

I want to run for my life.

As for surrender?

They're not going to do that anymore.

After all, the Qin army had already shown their killing side before.

In such a situation, who would dare to risk their lives to surrender?

After all, who can guarantee that after surrendering, the Qin army will not attack these captives and will not kill them?

As a result, the Dawan army in the city fell into an embarrassing territory.

They wanted to defeat Li Xin, but they couldn't.

They want to hold on to the city, and in the same way, they ask themselves that they know they can't hold the city.

Because, with the sound of that booming cannon firing came.

As the cast-iron cannonballs smashed down on the city wall, anyone could tell that the wall couldn't hold out for long.

In such a situation, they seem to have a dead end.

There is none, hope of survival.

For a while, everyone in the city fell into despair.

At the same time, King Yu Cheng was holding a sword and standing on the city wall.

Beside him, there is also a team of henchmen, at the moment, King Yu Cheng already knows the fate of the Dawan Kingdom, knows himself, and is about to be defeated, but, as a warrior, he will not surrender, nor will he pray that the enemy will spare his life.

He will only fight to the last moment, trying his best to kill a few Qin troops!

And when King Yu Cheng was waiting for the verdict of fate, waiting for the moment of his death to arrive, he was located in Dawan City in Dawan Kingdom.

King Dawan has received the news of King Yucheng's defeat.

At this moment, at the moment of learning the news.

Above the court, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were all shocked.

There is no other reason.

No one thought that these 30,000 troops would be defeated so simply.

Even the most pessimistic King Dawan never imagined that his army of 30,000 would be defeated by the enemy so simply.

In King Dawan's original assumption, even if he was defeated, Dawan's army would probably be able to withdraw most of it.

Na Cheng thought that when the news of the defeat came back, the ministers actually told him that there were only a few thousand people left in the Dawan army today.

This news undoubtedly frightened King Dawan.

There is no other reason.

There is only such a small army left, if you can hold Yucheng City?

Moreover, it is not the most important thing to live in Yucheng City.

The most important thing is.

The Qin army has now surrounded Yucheng City, and due to the heavy losses of the army, there are not many Dawan troops left at the moment, and the remaining armies are all under the command of King Yu Cheng, all of them are surrounded by the army of Qin in Yucheng City.

So, this brings a terrifying fact, that is, the current capital of Dawan Kingdom, in Dawan City.

There's not a single soldier available.

In other words, if the Qin army directly bypassed that Yu Chengcheng.

Then, go straight to Dawan.

At that time, Dawan will not be able to resist at all!

As soon as he thought of this, a cold sweat broke out on the king's forehead, and he opened his mouth to ask the ministers in the palace.

"Now that the Qin army is likely to arrive in a few days, what are your ways to meet the enemy?"

For a time, there was silence in the palace.

None of them can do anything.

The reason is simple.

In this situation, who can do it?

The army of the Qin State has already arrived, but what about their Dawan Kingdom?

Up and down, even if the people are hastily recruited to defend the city, yes, ordinary people, even if they climb on the top of the city, how much role can they play?

Even they went up to the walls and started fighting.

How could they, how could they resist the invincible Qin army?

Therefore, the current ministers have no ideas.

After all, they are not immortals, and they will not be able to sprinkle beans into soldiers.

They can only wait, wait for the verdict of fate, wait for the moment of death to come.

Of course, there is no only way to die.

I heard a minister, after a little thought, speak to the king.

"King, why don't you send someone to inform you that there should be Kangjuguo, and then ask Kangjuguo to send reinforcements to support our Dawan, right?"

The minister's voice fell.

Suddenly, the king's eyes lit up.

Yes, Dawan has no army and can deal with the enemy from Daqin.

But their neighbor, Kangju, has its own army.

Kangju country and Dawan country, lips and teeth are cold.

They will definitely be willing to borrow troops.

Thinking of this, King Dawan immediately ordered.

"Then why are you still stunned? Hurry up and send someone to the Kangju country to ask the king of Kangju to send troops over! ”

"Yes!"

This minister hurriedly bowed his head.

At the same time, in the court, another minister stood up, and he said to King Dawan.

"King, the Qin army is brutal, it is said that they killed more than 10,000 prisoners who surrendered on the battlefield, we are now, facing such a brutal opponent, we must be vigilant, so I mean, we should, prepare in advance, after all, our Dawan's army is not the opponent of the Qin army, so the army of Kangju country is not necessarily, it is the opponent of the Qin army......"

"What do you mean?"

Hearing this, King Dawan frowned and looked at this minister, and at this time, this minister opened his mouth and explained.

"My idea is very simple, we should move some of the inhabitants of Dawan out of the city, give them some gold and silver, and give them some water and food, so that they can flee to other places, so that all the citizens of Dawan will die under the butcher's knife of the Qin people......"

"Always, let's Dawan, leave some seeds!"
