Chapter 252: Jingguan
"Doctor Seven, you can't open the door! I'm afraid there will be fraud! ”
A sharp voice rang out in front of the talisman stopper.
"Who called me?"
On the fortress, the seven doctors were so startled by the sound that they stretched out their heads to look outside the city wall, and saw that the two Sima Geying who had opened their mouths and shouted were the two Sima Geying who he sent out to find out the news and returned with Dou Yuan and his party.
Shen Zhong frowned, not understanding why the two Sima told themselves not to open the door, and shouted fraudulent words. But as the duty of the fortress guard, he instinctively ordered the attendants on his side: "Hold off the door, don't let them in yet." ”
Although the order was given, it was a little late, and at this moment the gate of the fortress had opened a gap of two or three meters.
On the chariot, the moment he heard Ge Ying's shout, Shima knew that something was wrong.
"Rush the car in and block the door!"
Shiruma yelled at the coachman.
At the same time, he pulled Dou Yuan next to him and jumped out of the car.
"Second and third sons, do it!"
After Shima landed, he roared loudly, he didn't know where the horse's feet were exposed this time, so that the two horses of the Chu army found the flaw, but the matter had come to this, and it was useless to think about it.
Since there is no chance to capture the general defending the city, then take advantage of the moment when the gate of the fortress is not closed, and directly grab the gate to defend it!
"Kill!"
"Second and third sons, go on!"
The warriors of the Qin army, who had been gearing up for a long time and waiting for the order to do it, howled one by one, and they jumped up with their blades in hand, leaping forward like a tiger descending from a mountain.
More than a dozen of them pounced on the Chu army knights who had just led the way.
A Qin soldier stepped forward with a spear and poked the Chu pawn on the horse down.
Another Qin pawn swung a halberd to smash, the halberd pecked at the thigh of a Chu person, and then hooked, his eyes were full of blood, and the Chu pawn screamed and fell off the horse, and the blood on his thigh shot far away.
In an instant, Fu Li screamed outside the plug.
More than 20 cavalry under Ge Ying's command were attacked in a hurry, how could they react, and in an instant, nearly ten people were killed and wounded by the Qin army, and the others were frightened by this scene and hurriedly fled on horseback.
These cavalry were mainly used for reconnaissance tasks, and their weapons were only short swords and crossbows, and when the horses did not run, where could they beat the foot soldiers with spears and copper halberds, and when they were attacked, they had to open up the distance to survive.
Ge Ying reacted the fastest, and when he shouted to remind the seven doctors to be serious, he rode out of the horse and distanced himself from this "Qiyi County Pawn".
Of course, he didn't forget his subordinates, and when he was about to give another reminder, he didn't expect this "county pawn" to react so quickly, and launched an attack in an instant, and in a short period of time, half of his "two" soldiers were lost in battle.
Ge Ying looked horrified, and hurriedly beckoned the remaining Chu cavalry to run wildly from both sides, dodging the attacks of those foot soldiers.
Fortunately, after the successful raid, the "Qiyi County Pawn" did not pursue Ge Ying and his knights, and turned his head and rushed straight to the open city gate.
The carriage that Dou Yuan was riding just now had been driven by the coachman, and rushed into the city gate road, and the four horses galloped wildly, frightening the Chu soldiers who were about to follow the order to reclose the door, and hurriedly dodged to both sides.
When the horse entered the road, the coachman, who had already been prepared, stabbed a horse with a sword, and then violently pulled the bridle rope before jumping out of the car to escape.
One horse was frightened, the four horses were unbalanced, and the coachman pulled hard, and in this narrow city gate road, the horse on the side could not dodge and crashed straight into the city gate.
The horses neighed, and the whole carriage lost its balance, and in the confusion it overturned on its side, blocking the gates so tightly that they could no longer be closed.
At this time, the Qin soldiers in the rear had already rushed up, they used the carriage to block the city gate, slashing wildly in the doorway, and the Chu soldiers who had not yet reacted fled to the city in embarrassment.
Fu left the gate and fell into the hands of the Qin army.
"Qin Jun, they are pretending to be Qin people."
Ge Ying had stopped dozens of meters away at this moment, watching the "Qiyi County Pawn" seize the city gate in a short period of time, and couldn't help gritting his teeth and completely understanding the identity of the other party.
"There are only 100 of them, you come with me, shoot them from behind with crossbows, as long as the Seven Doctors send the defenders to attack, they will definitely be able to kill them all!"
Ge Ying was about to beckon his men to rush over, but was startled by the exclamation of the rider beside him.
"Qin Jun! My mother, a lot of Qin soldiers! ”
Ge Ying couldn't help but look westward, and was stunned for a moment.
In the distance, in the direction of the avenue leading to Qiyi, a black-armored army was trotting.
They were numerous and densely packed on the road, and from a distance, the entire marching array looked like a huge black python winding its way across the field, opening its jaws to devour the fortress ahead.
"Shhh...... There were at least four or five thousand people. In the land of Huaibei, how could there be so many Qin troops? ”
Ge Ying's scalp was numb, and he glanced at the fortress gate that was still occupied by the "Qiyi County Pawn", although the seven doctors on the city wall had already reacted and began to mobilize the Chu army in the city to seize the city gate, but Ge Ying knew that it was too late.
"This is my sin, I brought the Qin army to the front of the plug and called the door without careful questioning."
Ge Ying's face was full of self-blame, seeing that the Qin army in the west was getting closer and closer, he knew that time was running out.
He turned his head to the shocked rider beside him and said, "Fu Lisai can't be saved anymore." We quickly took the trail to the west, Zuo Sima's army was north of Qiyi, and we went to report to him the news that this Qin army had seized the fortress. As long as Zuo Sima's army arrived, none of them could escape. ”
"Yui."
The knights of the Chu army agreed and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, they were afraid that this Ge Sima would be stupid, and they would take them to charge the Qin army's military formation.
It's better to report the news, at least you can escape from this battlefield openly.
"Who is the commander of this Qin army?"
"What a sinister plan, he actually used Dou Yuan to deceive the city."
Ge Ying took a deep look at the huge Qin army that had rushed to the front of the fortress a hundred meters, turned around and rode away.
About an hour later, as the shouting and killing in the fortress stopped, the entire Fuli Fortress had completely fallen into the hands of the Qin army.
"Waiting, our army lost 53 people killed in the battle and nearly 100 wounded."
Shima reported to Zhao Tuo with a heavy face.
Zhao Tuo nodded.
This casualty is already very small, under normal circumstances, attacking such a military fortress, even if they can capture it in a short time, they will have to pay at least a thousand casualties, or even more.
Now there are less than 200 dead and wounded, which is already a very impressive record.
"It's a pity that the two Sima of the Chu army saw through our disguise and warned loudly in advance. Otherwise, as long as we enter the city, without defense, the heavy will definitely be captured by our army, and with him in his hands, the whole Fu Lisai will be left uncommanded, and our casualties will definitely be less than this. ”
Shi Jian said with some resentment, it was all the Chu army and the two Sima who were bad.
"This is already good, if the two horses shouted before the city gate was opened, then our army really failed to deceive the city this time, and then it can only turn into a strong attack, and I don't know how many dead and wounded there will be. The people of Jing Chu are really not to be underestimated, and there are talents everywhere. ”
Zhao Tuo couldn't help but sigh, and then turned to Shima and said, "Find a secret place nearby, and let the robes who died in battle go to the ground." ”
"Those who are unable to move will make more stretchers in the city according to the stretchers I have made before, and carry the wounded robes. You tell the second and third sons, on this return trip, I, Zhao Tuo, will never leave them. ”
"The army waits for benevolence."
Shima said softly, now they are still hundreds of miles away from returning to the Qin State, and there is an army of Zuo Sima of the Chu State behind them who will catch up at any time.
In such a very critical situation, Zhao Tuo would rather slow down the march than abandon the wounded, which is extremely rare in today's era.
Shima was about to receive the order, but when he thought of something again, he couldn't help but stop, turned around and asked, "Junhou, what about those Chu army prisoners, how to deal with them?" ”
"Captive ......"
Zhao Tuo's eyes narrowed slightly.
In the first battle of Fu Lisai, they captured nearly 500 Chu soldiers, including Shen Zhong, the seventh doctor of Chu State, and at this moment all of them surrendered their weapons and were held in the city.
After seeing that the Qin army had entered the city in a big way and the general trend was gone, these people quickly raised their hands and surrendered, which was one of the reasons why the Qin army suffered fewer casualties.
Five hundred.
According to the rules of the Qin army, the enemies who resisted on the battlefield were generally killed.
As for the captives who surrendered, after making up the corresponding military merit heads, the remaining captives would basically be demoted to vassals and sent to China to become official slaves of the Qin State.
But in the territory of this Chu State, it is obviously impossible to do this.
"Except for the Seven Doctors, kill the rest, and credit the military merits to those robes who were killed and wounded in the siege, and ensure that each of them can be promoted to a knight."
When Zhao Tuo said this, he took a deep breath and said, "As for the first-level corpse, it will be built at the gate of this fortress. ”
"Yui."
Shiruma's body shuddered and turned to go down.
The Qin army has always had a tradition of building a view of Beijing.
The so-called Kyoto viewers.
It is to pile the corpses of the beheaded enemy soldiers on both sides of the road, and the soil is compacted on top to form small hills in the shape of pyramids to deter the enemy.
Because the shape is like a tall gate, it is called Jingguan, and it is also called "killing", and it is written as "pit killing" in some history books.
In the past, Wu Anjun was white, and he killed the Zhao army in the Battle of Changping, killing it first and then filling the soil for the Jingguan, rather than the meaning of being buried alive as understood by Wangwen Shengyi.
Now, the reason why Zhao Tuo uses Jingguan to treat those Chu army captives is not just to kill Yaowu.
Rather, it is a last resort for security reasons.
Five hundred Chu troops, can he let go?
First, the soldiers attacked the city all the way, and fought for thousands of miles, and in the continuous battle march, it was inevitable that the morale would be low, and they needed the first level of credit, which could greatly improve morale and motivation.
The second is that the Qin army is still in danger now, and there may be a Chu army of 10,000 people behind it to catch up, if these 500 people are released, it will not only reveal the whereabouts of the Qin army, but also increase the enemy's strength. At such a time, how can you be soft-hearted?
Third, Zhao Tuo also has his purpose.
Shocked the Chu army behind him.
Angered the Zuo Sima of the Chu State.
As a general, you need to judge various situations calmly, and if you are affected by anger or fear, it is easy to make wrong judgments.
Changes in the mood of a general have a great impact on the outcome of a war.
Now the more than 10,000 Chu army is far stronger than Zhao Tuo and them, if they catch up, it will be a hard battle, and even the Qin army is in danger of overthrowing.
Therefore, Zhao Tuo naturally did not pity the lives of these five hundred Chu people, and he wanted to build it into a Jingguan to deter or anger the Chu State Zuo Sima behind him.
If the other party can be allowed to lose some judgment due to excitement, then the hope of this Qin army successfully returning to the Qin State will increase by a little more.
With the Sheruma Order.
The Qin soldiers forced those Chu people to take off their armor and drove them to a clearing outside the fortress to stand neatly.
At this time, the crossbowmen who had already prepared stepped forward, and they indifferently raised their crossbow machines and fired a volley at the captives.
After the crossbow arrows, among the screams of the Chu people, it was the Qin people who stepped forward with swords one by one.
Five hundred Chu people were killed in the blink of an eye.
Only not far away, the seven doctors of the Chu State who were left behind were heavy, trembling with fright when they saw this scene, and they couldn't get up on their knees.
Then, it is to carry the corpse and build a view of Beijing.
On the city wall, Zhao Tuo retracted his gaze.
He muttered.
"These are all enemy ......"
