Chapter 155: The Battle Under the City

"Put!"

Xingyang City, an order.

Bows and crossbows fired in volleys, and arrows rained down like a torrential rain.

Because of the full sprint, running at the front, the Wei army chariot cavalry, which could not stop in time, suffered a baptism of arrow rain.

In an instant, more than a dozen cavalrymen fell down screaming, and even one of the ten chariots had the Mide shot down on the spot, and another chariot collided with a cavalryman in a panic, and the man overturned on his back.

In just a moment, the Wei chariot cavalry troops lost nearly one-tenth.

The rest of the cavalry turned their horses in panic, away from the range of the lost arrows at the head of the city.

"Captain, this Wei army has failed to raid my Xingyang City, and it has panicked, and the last general will ask for orders to go out of the city to meet it, and he will definitely be able to defeat it!"

"Yes, the last general will also fight, and he will capture Wei and give it to the captain!"

At the head of Xingyang City, a group of military officials under Tu Sui asked for orders one after another.

Tu Sui first smiled, then his eyes widened, and he scolded, "Fight your stinky ass."

"The military order received by the captain of this school is to protect the grain and grass in Xingyang City, as long as he guards this place, it will be a credit. I'm sick, why go out and beat them? If you want to go out and fight, jump right from here, it's going to come faster!"

was scolded by Tu Sui, but those military officials were not afraid, and they all laughed.

After scolding his subordinates, Tu Sui squinted at the chaotic Wei army under the city.

"If it weren't for the fact that there were only 5,000 people in the city, they would have to guard the grain and grass. Naigong had already been killed, and he cut off Wei Jiang's head to pee, so how could it be the turn of this group of cubs to ask for their lives. But didn't General Xiao Wang's messenger say that he would send someone to intercept him? How can these shafts run slower than the Wei people, and they are also a group of lame people. The cripple chases the cripple, but it's a man who laughs to death."

Under the city, the slightly chaotic Wei army.

"Impossible! How could Xingyang City have been on guard for a long time, could it be that the news that our army wants to raid this place has leaked."

Zhou Shi's face was full of shock, watching the cavalry who went to snatch the city gate being shot by the head of the rat, and the city was full of black-armored Qin troops, fully armed, and it looked like they had been prepared.

"Zhou Shi!"

Wei Bao's sharp voice sounded, his face distorted, and he pointed at Zhou Shi and shouted, "Didn't you say that if we raid Xingyang, the Qin army will definitely be defenseless and will definitely be able to succeed?" I've been running so far with you, and that's what I've been waiting for? What's going on, you say!"

Wei Bao was so high-spirited just now, and how angry he is now.

Not only did the raid on Xingyang fail, but also because the heroic dream that Wei Bao had dreamed of all the way was shattered at this moment, and his heart hurt to the extreme.

"Childe, I don't know ......"

Zhou Shi opened his mouth with difficulty.

They were extremely cautious along the way, marching to avoid the main cities controlled by the Qin army.

All the Qin people they encountered on the road were killed, and the Wei people either killed the old and weak women and children, or recruited young and strong men into the army, trying not to leak any news, but they were still a step too late.

The Qin army closed the city gates, and the soldiers waited for the city.

This is what the Qin generals stationed in Xingyang have always been cautious about?

Or did you know in advance that you would be raiding?

While commanding his subordinates to control the chaotic army, Zhou Shi said, "Childe, Xingyang City has thick walls, if it is a surprise attack, we still have a chance to capture the city, but now that the city is prepared, with the state and combat strength of our army, it will definitely not be able to take it. The only way to do this is to retreat for the time being."

Wei Bao laughed angrily, "Retreat? Where do you retreat, and run back to your hometown for another ten days?"

Zhou Shi shook his head and was about to speak, but he heard another noise from the sergeant.

"Qin Jun!"

He looked sideways and saw the avenue south of Xingyang City, and an army holding a black flag appeared on the road.

……

"Commander Zuo, our army has been on the road for thirty miles in a row, the soldiers are physically and mentally exhausted, and one of the three people is left behind, so the state of our army is not suitable to launch an attack at this moment!"

Qin Jun

, a two or five hundred lord couldn't help but admonish Huan Zhao.

Huan Zhao was standing in the car at the moment, looking at the chaotic Wei army under Xingyang City in the distance, and was proud that the timing of his arrival was just right, and when he heard the words of these two or five hundred masters, his face suddenly turned cold.

"Our army is indeed tired on the road, but the state of the Wei army is probably not much better."

"The two armies are in similar condition, but the morale of the army is far from the same. Our army is eager to fight, and it will fight bravely to be the first in order to make meritorious contributions. And the Wei army's surprise attack on Xingyang failed, it was when it was panicked, and it was pursued by our army, and it must have been chaotic. In this case, it is time to annihilate it with one blow!"

"Not to mention that there are still our reinforcements in Xingyang City, as long as the defenders in the city go out of the city and join forces to attack, what waves can these Wei people make? Don't say much!"

Huan Zhao looked at the Wei army under the city with red eyes.

These are all his upgraded military exploits!

Since Yang Xiong reported this incident, Huan Zhao sent a message to the main general of Daliang, and arranged for his subordinates to defend various places in Chenliu, and finally squeezed out 2,000 soldiers, personally led the troops to Daliang, and asked Wang Ben for battle.

Wang Ben was also shocked when he heard the news that the Hanoi army had been defeated and that the Wei army might raid Xingyang.

If Xingyang is lost, then something will happen, Wang Ben sent an urgent messenger to order Xingyang to guard strictly, and sent 3,000 people under Huan Zhao's command, so that he could bring support to Xingyang.

In this way, Huan Zhao set off several days later than the Wei army.

He was afraid that the Wei army would attack Xingyang in advance and cause Qin's grain to be burned, and he was afraid that the Xingyang defenders would be too strong and annihilate the Wei army, so that he would not get credit in the end, and he traveled day and night all the way, and finally arrived at the critical moment.

"Zhao Tuo, that idiot, didn't he bring a thousand people to follow behind the Wei army? Why did the Wei army still run so fast, and there were still so many people, could it be that Zhao Tuo's thousand people were annihilated?"

Thinking of this, Huan Zhao said proudly: "Sure enough, the hairless boy is unreliable, and this Wei army still needs me to take it personally."

Huan Zhao stood on the command car, raised his arms and shouted, "Beat the drums with me left and right, and motivate the soldiers to march!"

Winter! Winter! Winter!

The Qin army's war drums sounded, and the Qin soldiers, who had just marched thirty miles to come here, could not take a breath, and suddenly heard the sound of the drums, and they were all miserable.

After running for thirty miles in one breath, I am about to fight with people again, and I really don't treat people as human beings.

The soldiers cursed in a low voice, but they had to hold the spear halberd in their hands, the long beryllium, and under the guidance of the military officials, they rushed towards the Wei army with their tired bodies.

Listening to the beating of war drums, seeing the Qin army that appeared on the south side attacking their side, there was a commotion in the Wei army.

Wei Bao's face turned pale with fright, and he secretly hated how he could be stupid enough to listen to Zhou Shi's surprise attack plan and run to the territory of Qin to die. While shouting, "Retreat quickly, don't be caught up by the Qin army."

Zhou Shi shouted: "Son, no, the morale of our army is already unstable, and now in the face of the attack of the Qin army, if you order a retreat, it will definitely be a collapse for thousands of miles, and no one can escape!"

Wei Bao roared, "Then what do you say?"

Zhou Shi gritted his teeth and said, "Encourage the soldiers to fight with them. Now the Qin army in Xingyang City has no sign of leaving the city, and our army is only facing this new Qin army."

"I think they've just arrived, and they're tired. Moreover, the number of people is about the same as our army, and the way for our army to survive now is to defeat the Qin army in the city before it leaves the city, so that it can retreat calmly!"

At this time, Chen Ping, who had been taken by Wei Bao's side, suddenly spoke: "Childe, General Zhou is right, so that our military can have a glimmer of life. However, it is also possible that the Qin army in the city will go out of the city to form a flanking attack with the other party, and in my opinion, General Zhou can lead 3,000 soldiers to defeat the Qin army. Childe led a thousand young men from Humu Township to guard the city gate to form a deterrent to the city, so that they would not dare to leave the city easily."

When Chen Ping said this, he quietly glanced at Wei Bao.

Wei Bao understood this, and hurriedly said, "That's it, I will take a thousand people to block in front of the city to deter the Qin army in the city. General Zhou, the matter of destroying the enemy will be handed over to you."

At this moment, the Qin army launched an attack, and the Wei army could collapse at any time, although Zhou Shi felt that it was useless for Wei Bao's thousand people to stay here, but he didn't have time to argue, nodded and slapped his horse away, scolding the soldiers to prepare for battle.

Seeing that Zhou Shi was gone, Wei Bao asked, "Chen Ping, what did you mean by letting me lead the troops to stay just now?"

Chen Ping leaned over and whispered in Wei Bao's ear, "Son, if the Qin army on the south side does not appear, most of the Qin troops in the city will not leave the city for the sake of protection, so we can retreat calmly."

"But now that they have reinforcements outside the city, they won't sit idly by. As long as our army engages with the Qin army on the south side, the Qin army in the city will definitely follow and attack from inside and outside, so our army will definitely be defeated!"

Wei Bao said: "These thousand people ......."

"These thousand people are escorting Gongzi away, and it is impossible for a thousand people to be the opponent of the Qin army, I am afraid that the other party will collapse on the spot with a charge, and we will do this when the time comes......

"Judge slew all those who retreated! Death to those who dare to retreat!"

Zhou Shi roared on his horse, facing the Qin army that was attacking from the south, he relied on the prestige accumulated by marching all the way to really suppress this 3,000-strong Wei army, and the Wei army barely lined up to the south.

"Our army has penetrated deep into the enemy's territory, and if this battle is lost, there will be no life or death!"

"Don't expect the brutal Qin people to have mercy on your lives, if you lose today, then your heads will be piled up at this city gate tomorrow, stinky and rotten!"

"If you want to live, give me a desperate kill!"

"Rush!"

The Wei soldiers were inspired, they had already been told that they were now in the Qin realm, and there were still ten days away from the Humu Township controlled by the Wei army, and even if they escaped now, there was no way out, so they all rose up and rushed towards the Qin army for their lives.

When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins!

At this time, the distance between the two sides was no longer enough to release arrows, and the two armies of Wei and Qin were short of each other and collided with each other.

Seeing the two armies engaged, Zhou Shi of the Central Military Department shouted, "Where are the people who dare to die first?"

"The Dare Dead are here!"

Fifty people responded loudly, their swords held high.

They are the diehard loyalists of Wei selected by Zhou Shi from these 3,000 people, and they are loyal and brave people who can die for the community. All the way to the back of the chariot to come, physical strength and spirit are very abundant, is the Zhou City specially used as the first to attack the warriors.

That's his hole card too!

It's a pity that the raid on Xingyang failed, and they didn't need to go first, but now they can just be used as a surprise soldier to attack the Qin army!

"Huai Zhuang, you lead the team to attack and kill the banner of the Qin people's Chinese army from the side!"

"Yui!"

The Wei soldier Huai Zhuang, who was eight feet five inches tall, roared angrily, led his men who dared to die, bypassed the frontal battlefield, and rushed straight to the banner of the Qin army from the side, and behind him, there were five hundred soldiers sent by Zhou Shi to follow.

He wants to use these fifty daring warriors as arrows to break through the Chinese army and kill the commander of the Qin army!

At this moment, Huan Zhao stood on the command car, his eyes wide open, and his face was full of incredulity.

Because in his imagination, shouldn't that Wei army collapse and flee when he launched an attack?

How can they still have the courage to engage their own troops, and their morale is so high that they are on par with their own fights.

No, to be precise, the Qin army is being beaten and retreating.

The long journey of thirty miles, without trimming and forming formations, could not exert much combat power at all.

Even, Huan Zhao saw that a Wei army was rushing in his direction from the side.

The Wei soldiers who rushed to the front were very brave, especially the big man, every time the halberd in his hand waved, he could smash a Qin soldier to the ground, as if he had inexhaustible strength, and the Wei soldiers behind him were all not afraid of life and death, even if they were stabbed by the Qin soldier with a sword, they still howled and pounced on the bloody fight.

"The Daredevil!"

Huan Zhao's face turned blue, and these words popped out of his teeth, knowing that he was careless this time, and he rushed forward for the sake of greed, and as a result, Wei Jun in front of him was merged

Instead of the soft persimmon he imagined, it was a difficult meat bone, not only knocking his teeth, but now he was poking his throat with that hard bone spur.

But Huan Zhao can't run, even if the Wei army death squad is rushing towards him, he can't go, if he runs, the banner moves, then the whole army will be defeated!

But if you don't run, that's ......

"Come out quickly, the defenders of the city!"

Huan Zhao was anxious, looking at Xingyang City in the distance, hoping that his colleagues in the city would leave the city quickly and save him.

"This is the person sent by General Xiao Wang to intercept the Wei army? Whose subordinates are these?"

"The general's brain shouldn't be eaten by dogs, even if he wants to attack, then he has to wait for the Wei army to start retreating, and then pursue all the way, so it can easily evolve into chasing the north and chasing the north, now is it okay? The leader is not only a lame man, but a brainless fool."

Tu Sui cursed on the city wall, but he couldn't really sit idly by and watch his friendly army being wiped out by the Wei people right under his nose.

"Give me the drums!"

"Ren Huan, you take a thousand people out of the south gate......

At the same time, hearing the passionate drums coming from the city, Chen Ping, who had been waiting, hurriedly said to Wei Bao: "Childe, the Qin army in the city is coming out, General Zhou will definitely not be able to stop it, let's take the opportunity to retreat, with these people left behind as bait, our thousand people will definitely be able to escape!"

Wei Bao also heard the drums in the city, but he hesitated, because at this moment, the Wei army, under the leadership of Zhou Shi, was very brave, and even pressed the Qin army to retreat one after another, and there was a glimmer of hope for victory.

In this case, Wei Bao didn't want to escape.

The Wei army under the leadership of Zhou Shi was so strong in combat!

This made Wei Bao ambitious, if he could bring these thousand people forward, maybe he could also help Zhou Shi completely defeat the Qin army outside the city, and reproduce the big victory under Jiyang City.

Even if this surprise attack on Xingyang fails, with this big victory, he Wei Bao is bound to become famous all over the world.

However, just as Wei Bao was about to speak, he was stunned, staring at Chen Ping's back, the direction they had just marched into.

"Childe?"

Chen Ping sensed that something was wrong, turned his head to look, and a mouth was wide open, which could stuff an egg.

At the head of the city, before Tu Sui's order was finished, his eyes widened, and he pointed to the outside of the city and shouted, "His mother's, where did this army come from?"

On the road to Yangmu and other eastern counties.

A reorganized Qin army is approaching.

The black flag fluttered in the wind, the spear halberd pointed to the sky like a forest, and the bronze sword and beryllium reflected brilliant light in the sun.

A chariot slowly drove in front of the army.

On the chariot, the young Qin General in armor and sword stood proudly.

Zhao Tuo looked at the battlefield in the distance and said with a smile, "Where did this friendly army come from? It's such a dish."
