Chapter Forty-Eight: The Great Wall

The Great Wall of Yannan lies on the north bank of Nanyishui, stretches for 500 miles down the river, its city wall is roughly made of loess ramming, about 10 meters high, and the width is also more than 8 meters, it is very majestic, and it is by no means easy to conquer.

However, the purpose of this strange army led by Li Xin is not to take all the 500 miles of the Yannan Great Wall, but only need to open a breakthrough, take advantage of the situation to pierce the Great Wall, occupy the key points behind the Yan Dynasty coalition army, and cut off their back road.

Zhao Tuo's heel army is the sword used to open the breakthrough.

"Why is this the case? Even if one person goes up and pokes it, the head can't be divided into the head of the father. ”

The black buttocks behind him complained, but Ah Niu, the long and short brothers and others who were originally nervous breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhao Tuo looked at the sparse figures on the city wall and thought thoughtfully.

Because the Great Wall is too long, the Yan army will not have too many troops on each section of the city wall, especially the feint attack of another thousand people attracted the Yan army from the surrounding city wall to support, resulting in Zhao Tuo's department facing this section of the Great Wall with only five people.

Two thousand people against five?

Plus there are tens of thousands of people behind it.

It feels like using artillery to fight mosquitoes.

Zhao Tuo vaguely understood why Wang Jian would send them to attack the Great Wall after going around, because the difficulty of starting this roundabout was not high, and it just happened to give these new soldiers a bloody adaptation.

I have seen blood on the battlefield, and it is completely different from the army that only trains in the barracks all day.

And climbing the Great Wall is only the first step, next, they have to follow the Great Wall for more than ten miles, seize the important Guancheng where the Yan army crossed the river, cut off the back road of the Yan Dynasty coalition army and chase the defeated army, and the difficulty lies there.

Easy at the beginning, hard at the end.

"Attack!"

Although there were few enemies on the Great Wall, Captain Huan Zhao still gave the order to attack one by one.

The war drums of the accompanying army were beating.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom......

In the continuous sound of drums, the vanguard hundred-man team that received the order rushed forward carrying five bamboo ladders with the army.

Although these bamboo ladders are rudimentary, they are light and useful, and they are all built according to the height of the Great Wall, and once they reach the top of the city, one team of soldiers after another will attach themselves to them.

One team died, and the other team went up.

Of course, the current situation is not needed, the five Yan soldiers on the Great Wall are not fools, seeing thousands of people pouring out of the opposite side, who doesn't know that they have been tricked into the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain.

These men ran away.

After Zhao Tuo and the others climbed the ladder to the city wall in order, let alone taking people's heads to make military merits, they couldn't even see a single figure. On the contrary, although the thousand-man team that was responsible for the feint attack before will have a lot of casualties, many people can get military merits.

"Your troops are going to support the feints and at the same time block reinforcements from the north. Your troops will stay behind to meet the commander's army, and the rest will be killed along the city walls, and you will do your best to rush forward before the enemy forces intercept you! ”

"Yui!"

Huan Zhao assigned tasks according to the established plan, and Zhao Tuo's department was responsible for rushing forward.

"Second and third sons, today is the time to make meritorious contributions, follow suit."

General Lu Bai shouted excitedly and ordered his 100 men to follow the vanguard in order.

On the Great Wall, a road goes to the end, and only the brave who meet on the narrow road wins!

However, the Qin army's strategy on the Great Wall of Yan was not a swarm of bees, but according to the hundred-man team in five columns, marching in the same row, the front holding spears and halberds, and the back holding short soldiers, although there were many people, they were not chaotic.

Perhaps because of the suddenness of the attack, all the Yan soldiers encountered on the way fled in despair, and in a short period of time, the Qin army rushed out of the Great Wall for nearly a kilometer.

But soon, they encountered resistance from the Yan army.

Dozens of Yan pawns were blocked outside a beacon fire, armed with bows and crossbows, and waited for the battle.

In an instant, the arrows flew and the unlucky ones who rushed to the front instantly hit the ground, but the comrades who followed did not have time to treat them, but jumped up from them, or stepped directly on them.

In the midst of a burst of screams, he rushed straight into the Yan pawn array.

Hand-to-hand combat, flesh and blood flying.

In this way, the first group of people fell or were injured and lay by the wall, and the rest of them immediately filled in. With the support of the follow-up army of 10,000 people, the entire Qin army surged rapidly on the Great Wall like a surging torrent, breaking through all obstacles all the way and heading straight to the Fenmen Pass where the Yan army crossed the river.

Not only at the Great Wall, after capturing a pass in the middle of the way, the army of subsequent reinforcements descended from there and marched directly along the inner edge of the wall, because there was no Yan army on the ground to block them, and their speed was much faster than that of their comrades on the Great Wall.

If you look down from the sky, you can clearly see that the black torrent is divided into two branches, running all the way along the Great Wall.

The establishment of the Qin army is arranged in the order of the heavenly stems, A, B, C, D, pente, hexageng, xin, non dec.

Xintun Gengshi belongs to the ranking behind this thousand people, so the comrades in front of them were killed and wounded, and when it was Gengshi's turn, they had almost rushed to 500 meters away from Guancheng.

Thousands of Yan troops were stationed here, firmly guarding the city here, as a retreat for the Yan Dynasty coalition army.

But at this moment, they all looked frightened.

Obviously, it was a decisive battle between the two armies in the west of Yishui, but how could the Qin army attack from the Great Wall in the north, and at the same time, there were Qin troops on the inside of the Great Wall.

There were beacons everywhere, and the eyes were full of black armor.

"Kill!"

On the Great Wall, the hundred generals Lu Wu had already rushed into the enemy formation with short soldiers, and Liang Guang, the tun chief of Xintun, also roared and rushed to kill.

As the lower-level military officials of the Qin army, the hundred generals and the tun commander must take the lead, especially leading a group of new soldiers.

"Gentlemen, follow me!"

Zhao Tuo also roared and stepped forward with his sword.

The chief of Ji Shi in front of him had just been pierced by a Yan military spear, Zhao Tuo used the body of his comrade as a shield, one sideways, jumped out from the side of the wall, and the Qin sword in his hand stabbed towards the Yan soldier holding the spear.

"Ahh

The Yan pawn screamed, but the weapon in his hand was still poked in the corpse, and he couldn't block it for a while, and was stabbed in the throat by Zhao Tuo's sword, and the blood was wild.

"It's going to be upgraded."

Zhao Tuo was overjoyed, but the cry of a black buttock immediately came from behind him.

"Ah Tuo, be careful!"

Zhao Tuo was reminded, and his body fell back, which was able to avoid the tip of the spear that stabbed him.

The spear-wielding Yan pawn was stunned for a moment, and then he saw a thin figure running in front of him like a ghost.

Shibuma!

He was thin but athletic, and with a single sword he stabbed the pawn in the chest, killing him.

"Rush!"

The pillar who had always been honest and steady seemed to be stimulated, he roared, put a picked up Yan Jun shield in front of him, and rushed forward first.

He was already strong and powerful, eight feet tall, and when he charged at this moment, he was like a tank running wildly, with an indomitable momentum.

Behind the pillar, Xiao Bai, Black Hip, and the others of Gengshi also roared and rushed forward.

In the rear, there are more Qin troops coming in.

At this moment, Zhao Tuo was surprised to find that the Yan army, which had been resisting stubbornly in front, seemed to have suddenly lost all its courage. In addition to the people who were still fighting at the front line, the Yan army in the rear actually began to break and flee.

"Defeated!"

"Yan Guo is defeated!"

The robe in the rear shouted excitedly.

Zhao Tuo stood at the head of the city and looked west.

On the west bank of Yishui, smoke and dust are billowing out.

Countless soldiers threw off their armor and fled in a hurry.

The banner embroidered with the word "Yan" was thrown to the ground, and then trampled by countless people and horses.

The Yan Dynasty coalition army was defeated.
