Chapter 0166: Death for a Confidant

The remnant sun is like blood.

The fighting up and down Quliu City did not become calm because of the sunset, but intensified. This made Quliu's guard Niu Xuan a little confused!

It stands to reason that after a whole day of fighting during the day, whether it is the soldiers who are attacking or defending the city, they are already physically and mentally exhausted, but why did the offensive of the Zhao army outside the city become more fierce?

Even if Zhao Jun has many generals and a lot of fresh troops, but this is already evening, don't you Mingjin withdraw the troops, go home for dinner, and still want to fight day and night?

Of course, besieging a city day and night, Zhao Jun often did this.

After all, this is no longer the pre-Qin era of antiquity! This is not only an era of decay of etiquette, but also an era of moral degradation and the annihilation of human nature, in this era, there are man-eating wolves everywhere! If you want to live, you can only become a wolf, a wolf who can eat people! A wolf that can eat people like sheep!

Although Niu Xuan had heard that the Zhao army liked to besiege a fortified city day and night, but if he could not attack it for a long time, his morale would inevitably be frustrated and dealt a big blow.

It seems that in the previous battle of Changli and the battle of Fancheng between Zhao and Yan, the Zhao army, as the attacking party, had besieged Thorn City and Fancheng for more than ten days and nights, but they could not capture it. Niu Xuan asked himself that the current situation is almost the same, the strength of Quliu City should be no less than that of Thorn City and Fan City, and the strength of the army is even more than that of the Yan army at that time, so the Yan army can withstand the onslaught of the Zhao army for more than ten days, why can't they be cold?!

It's just that what Niu Xuan didn't expect was that this time the main general of the Zhao army was not Shi Hu, not Li Nong, but Shi Min!

Seeing that the Zhao army was still attacking the city, although the offensive was fierce, but it could not shake Quliu City at all, Niu Xuan couldn't help but sneer and said: "Ha! Thinking of that Shi Min, but a puppet erection, a villain who recognizes the thief as his father! Known as the God of War of the Zhao Kingdom, he won all battles, in my opinion, it is nothing more than that! Shi Min was able to achieve this great fame, he must have fought a few smooth battles, encountered some enemy generals with wine bags and rice bags, and then was advocated by the Zhao people! It's just a name! ”

When Yang Kang (who is indeed the person) on the side heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "General, don't be careless about the enemy." ”

"Shi Min and his people, successively served as the North Zhonglang General of Zhao State, Guerrilla General, Zuo Jizhu General, Da Sima, Great General, this is only five or six years, Shi Min worshiped as a general, the head of Zhao State's military generals, its accumulated military achievements and promotion are fast, rare since ancient times! If Shi Min doesn't have extraordinary ability, can Shi Huyan make him in the high position of Duke Wei and the general? ”

Captain Zhang Ju of Ning Rong also said: "General, what General Yang Kang said is extremely true. According to the last general, Shi Min is not a simple person! He is Shi Hu's adopted grandson, Shi Zhan's son, young and brave, strategic, his reputation has been established in Yecheng when he was a teenager. To worship the North Zhonglang General, sweep away the thieves, the fastest speed, and the least casualties! ”

"Shi Min was promoted to guerrilla general, in the battle of Yan Zhao Changli, the Zhao army was defeated and retreated, and the casualties were quite heavy, but Shi Min survived alone, and repelled the two thousand elite cavalry of the Xianbei people with the strength of one piece! Then, Shi Min fought in Jiangzuo again, broke the Jin army, killed the generals Cai Huai, Tao Cheng, and Li Yang, and beheaded tens of thousands. Then Shi Min attacked the Dynasty, won three battles and three victories, broke the Dai Army, and forced the Acting King Tuoba Shiyiqian to lead his troops to flee north! It wasn't until later, that is, the Shi Xuan Rebellion of Zhao State, that Shi Min and hundreds of thousands of people put down the rebellion within three months! How many people in the world have such ability? ”

Hearing this, Niu Xuan said with a dissatisfied face: "Yang Kang and Zhang Ju, how can you two grow the ambition of others and destroy your own prestige?" Shi Min was so strong before, all because he didn't run into me, didn't meet our Liang army, and didn't see the power of our Da Liang army! Now in a war, we must kill his sharpness, let this number dictionary forget his ancestors, recognize the thief as his father, see how powerful our Daliang strong army is! ”

"......" Yang Kang and Zhang Ju were speechless.

Zhang Ju sighed and said, "General, no matter what, in the face of Shi Min, a strong opponent, you must not take it lightly!" ”

The Zhao army fought for many years, and its weapons and equipment were very sophisticated, and most of its soldiers were experienced and well-trained, so their combat effectiveness was very strong. But the Liang army is not inferior, the Liang army is located in the western corner, but it fights with the Hu people, Han Zhao, Qian Zhao, and Tuyuhun armies in the Western Regions all the year round, and the Hu people in the country are sometimes restless, so the Liang country is also at war every year, and there are not a few elite soldiers!

Therefore, in this battle, there is no suspense about the combat effectiveness of the two armies.

The difference is that the Zhao army has more generals and is the side that is besieging the city, while the Liang army is a little less and is the side of defense. Around this way, Liangguo still occupies the geographical advantage and people.

In this battle, Zhang Jun accepted the advice of Pei Heng, Zhang Tan and other ministers to fight a protracted war and drag the invading Zhao army in Liangdi, so the Liang army in various places was strong and clear, and few of them fought. And Liang Guo wants to do this, it doesn't mean that Shi Min wants to do this!

Soldiers, you are fast!

What Shi Min is best at is blitzkrieg and annihilation warfare!

Shi Min didn't want to delay too much time in the Liang Kingdom, as this war would greatly consume the vitality of the Zhao Kingdom, especially the vitality of their Han family fathers!

You must know that the mainstay of this war is really the Han people, and nearly half of the 150,000 Zhao troops who went out were Shi Min's subordinates, which was requested by Shi Min himself, because he wanted to lead the army to fight, and the soldiers under his command must obey unconditionally, while other people's subordinates made Shi Min not very reassured.

In addition, Shi Min also has the idea of training through this, after all, only soldiers who have experienced blood and fire can be called fierce soldiers in the true sense!

Not to mention, in order to win this battle, Shi Hu also requisitioned more than 200,000 people and a large number of civilian materials, and the people in Jizhou, Bingzhou, and Yongzhou were forced to hand over their rations.

These statistics are shocking!

Second, Shi Hu was still doing mischief in the Central Plains, and the atrocities he committed were too numerous to mention. Shi Min must return to the dynasty as soon as possible and carry out his plan to kill the king and usurp the throne in order to change the fate of the Han people!

Every day of delay in Liangguo, the Han compatriots in the Central Plains will be killed and injured countless times, these are not what Shi Min wants to see!

And under the city, at this time, Shi Min had already issued an impassioned and confident word!

"I want to take Quliu in one day!"

"Kill!"

Under the wave of Shi Min's command flag, the Zhao army launched another offensive like a tide!

Those 800 sharp soldiers, under the cover of the rest of the Zhao army, will take the opportunity to climb to the head of Quliu and capture the flag!

The siege equipment of the Zhao army was very sophisticated and perfect.

Siege equipment such as ladders, rushing cars, crashing cars, building cars, trebuchets, and wooden curtains were activated at the same time, and they rumbled towards Quliu City.

The stone thrown out by the trebuchet smashed into the city wall of Quliu, and immediately sank down several deep pits, which shook a city wall.

The car arrived at the city gate and began to pound the huge city gate again and again. However, inside the city gate, there were still many Liang soldiers crowded, blocking the city gate with their own flesh and blood, so the car could not be easily shaken.

As for the cloud ladder, it had already been erected on the head of Quliu, and many Zhao soldiers climbed up along the cloud ladder.

Shi Min waved his hand again: "Wentai! Sortie! ”

"I'll take the lead!" Wen Taili snorted, and then rushed out with eight hundred sharp soldiers.

However, although these 800 Rui soldiers are dead soldiers, rushing up like this is almost the same as sending them to death. Shi Min is not stupid, the lives of these sharp soldiers are precious, they can't die casually, if they want to die, they must die worthily and deservedly!

Under Shi Min's orders, in order to block the rain of arrows from the enemy troops in the city, the warriors hid in wooden curtains and carts.

The wooden mantle and the wagon were very effective defensive siege equipment.

The wooden curtain is a kind of siege vehicle equipped with wooden planks as cover in ancient times.

The wooden curtain is a method that the ancients came up with when attacking the city to deal with the projectiles such as arrows and stones on the defending side, and it first appeared in the Warring States period, using various materials such as grass, cloth, wood, and leather to make a large piece of things, and provoking and hanging it outside the city wall, which can buffer the projectile.

"Book of Song: Emperor Wu Ji I": "Zhang Gangzhi attacked the tools, set up all the kit Kats, and the genus of the flying building and the wooden curtain were all prepared. ”

This device can block arrows and cover the siege of the soldiers.

The cart is similar to the mantle, but more aggressive.

The fenyun cart is a four-wheeled bottomless wooden cart, covered with cowhide to resist the arrows on the city, and the people push the cart forward in the car, which can cover the nurses and soldiers to attack near the city wall, but cannot directly destroy the city wall. A car can hide about ten people.

In order to increase the stability of the car, Shi Min increased the number of road wheels in the apparatus to six, with a length of one zhang and five feet (4.7 meters) and a height of eight feet (2.504 meters).

Under the cover of the wooden curtain and the chariot, the eight hundred sharps quickly reached the city wall and climbed up the ladder!

"Knock knock! ......" Shi Min replaced the drummer who was beating the drum, went into battle himself, and beat the war drum again and again.

The sound of the dull and powerful cowhide war drum instantly resounded through the four fields!

Death for a confidant!

While fighting at the head of the city, Wentai heard this drum beat, and couldn't help but say with red eyes: "Brothers! It's the general who is cheering us on! Raise soldiers for a thousand days and use them for a while! It's time for you to serve the generals! Kill me with me! ”

"Kill!"

The sharp soldiers led by Wentai are extremely powerful, almost all of them are ruthless characters who can be one as ten, they were slashed a few times, stabbed a few times and still died of anger, still wielding the ring head knife in their hands to slash the enemy, and after being scarred, they fell to a pool of blood without blinking!

Looking at the elite of the Zhao army who came straight to his side, Niu Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then picked up his weapon Bagua Xuanhua axe, and the tiger roared, and wanted to rush forward, but unfortunately he was stopped by the two generals Zhang Ju and Yang Kang beside him.

"General, don't be impatient!" Zhang Ju is also a fierce general.

"Look how I take its head!"

"Kill!"
