35. People are in the store
At this time, Bai Qi stared at the battlefield in front of him, his face expressionless.
After all, a few days ago, the light cavalry of the Zhao army frantically cut off the grain route of the Qin army, and the infantry of the Zhao army attacked tentatively everywhere, which had already exposed their intention to burn the baggage of the Qin army.
Therefore, Bai Qi had already made arrangements, first made two fake baggage storage places, and then scattered the baggage weight of the whole army. Moreover, King Qin also helped him make a winning move, and according to the arrangement, he was already winning.
However, today's Zhao army's attack on the Qin army's front line was really unexpected.
At the beginning, the decisive attack of 10,000 people actually suppressed the elite Qin army. And the second wave of Zhao's attack was even more unexpected.
The encirclement of the Qin army on the front line of Hanwangshan was broken many times, and the competition was fierce.
But the fiercest part of the fighting is still the store barriers.
Take here, cut off the connection between Hanwang Mountain and Daliangshan, cooperate with the Qin army's backhand, and directly end the Battle of Changping or even take half of the Zhao State.
The Qin army's most elite army of 100,000 troops, after the Zhao army made a move, crossed the Dan River without hesitation and directly crashed into the store barrier.
The laterite slope in front of the fortress was densely packed with corpses.
Li Yun laid layers of traps on this soft laterite slope.
The outermost layer is a deep pit with bamboo sticks at the bottom, covered with thin planks and dust.
The first wave of the Qin army's charge was buried in the pit.
Later, the Qin army braved the rain of arrows to set up planks on the pit, but in some places there was no need for planks, because the corpses were higher than the top of the pit.
Then the Qin army experienced the second line of defense - muddy land, and there were still deep pits in some places.
These water-soaked lands greatly slowed down the Qin army's attack, and many Qin troops even slipped and fell to the ground.
Then it was harvested again by the bows and arrows of the Zhao army.
The Qin army finally rushed to the front of the red clay slope, under the barrier of the store.
A huge log, which had been tied to the rampart beforehand, was lowered.
The log crashed into the Qin soldiers in the front row, crushing them underneath, breaking their hands and feet. A volley of rockets was fired.
The logs were already coated with oil, and a raging fire immediately ignited.
The scorching temperature made Qin Jun instinctively retreat.
When the flames were extinguished and the Qin army stepped forward again, huge stones were thrown under the barrier along with a rain of arrows.
Stumps, blood, and internal organs splattered above and below the ramparts.
The pre-collected feces and urine are boiled to make a golden juice.
Zhao Jun covered his mouth and nose with a sackcloth, and then poured the pot full of gold juice under the barrier.
Accompanied by the white smoke and huge blisters rising from the heat burns on the skin, as well as the screams of the Qin army, the Qin army finally showed signs of retreating,
But then, the Warlord stepped forward, killed the retreating Qin army, and then joined the siege team.
Bai Qi actually asked all the troops to be arranged in echelons after drawing lots, and the latter team served as the supervising team of the previous team.
Qin's law is strict, and there is no advance or retreat.
If you retreat, you will also affect your family.
The desperate soldiers of the Qin army could only close their eyes and rush towards the barrier of the store like a tide, not daring to turn back.
In the middle of the night, the offensive of the Qin army did not weaken at all, and another 100,000 Qin troops were already on the other side of the Dan River, ready to cross the river.
"Get on the gun truck." After seeing that Hongtu Slope was occupied by most of the Qin army, Bai Qi ordered the generals beside him.
Suddenly, several messengers ran in.
"Report, the battalion of Deputy Marshal Zheng Anping of the fort head was attacked, and the current battle situation is unknown."
"What!" Bai Qi was surprised, how could Zhao Jun have troops to go around his rear, this tactic is his traditional art. "How many Zhao Jun are there."
"Back to the general, the little one came to report as soon as the Zhao army attacked, and there were about a thousand people at that time."
After Bai Qi heard that the Zhao army that attacked was only 1,000 people, he felt a little calmer in his heart, and waved his hand: "Continue to investigate." ”
Then he asked the adjutant general Lei He: "Is there any news from Changping Pass?" ”
At this time, there were no telephone telegrams, not even fireworks and hot air balloons, and the transmission of information on the battlefield relied on the feet of the messenger. The coach needs to plan ahead of time, and the quality of the middle-level generals also plays a very important role in the progress of the battlefield.
Lei He replied: "Not yet, but General Changping Guan Wang Ling is a general, and another general Sima Jin who leads the team is also a famous general of our army. ”
Bai Qiqi nodded and continued to ask, "How is the war going in the Changping camp?" ”
"Back to the general, Fang Luo, the general in charge of the front-line defense, just asked the messenger to send a letter of guilt, saying that he has not been able to complete the encirclement of the Zhao army that attacked the front line of our army with 30,000 people, and he is deeply guilty. He asked the general to deposit his head on his head first, and he would definitely make meritorious service and annihilate the Zhao army. ”
"Where is the Central Baggage Camp?"
"General Sima Terrier, who was in charge of the ambush, sent a messenger to report just now, saying that about 4,000 cavalry of the Zhao army were wandering around them repeatedly, but they didn't go in, probably because they were afraid of the ambush and were testing our army."
"Let him be patient, it is impossible for the Zhao army to send only four thousand cavalry, there must be a large army behind. It is necessary to wait for the appearance of the Zhao army before completing the encirclement. In this battle, I want to defeat the main force of the Zhao army at one time. ”
"No."
"Also, as I said earlier, did the gun carriage go up?"
"Back to the general, I have already gone up."
A huge catapult descended to the front of the red soil slope surrounded by hundreds of Qin soldiers and more than a hundred war horses.
Seeing this thing, Li Yun on the barrier secretly screamed in his heart
This thing is the most lethal siege weapon of the Qin State, the artillery carriage.
It consists of a tall tower and two levers. At this time, the artillery carriages relied mainly on manpower.
A huge stone was silently on the side of the lever.
Dozens of Qin troops were on the other side of the lever, and many ropes were tied to the cannon tips above, and one end of the rope was tied to the belly of the war horse.
"Put!"
At the sound of the order, the war horse began to run frantically, and the huge stone drew a beautiful parabola in the air.
Then fall above the ramparts.
Rumble!
A large part of the battlements above the fortress collapsed, and the Zhao army standing on it was also crushed into pulp.
The broken stones splashed by the recoil force even hit Li Yun's face, leaving blood stains, but he didn't realize it.
The Zhao army defending the city was instantly silent.
And under the barrier, the Qin army, which was preparing to attack the city, began to cheer.
Such a huge stone cannot be loaded in a moment and a half, and it is not possible to hit every time.
But the morale impact of this is obvious.
What's more, the barrier on the store was already in tatters after being repeatedly attacked by the Qin army.
After being bombarded five or six more times, the store barrier completely collapsed.
Li Mu on Hanwang Mountain was stunned, and at this time, the tiger talisman had already arrived in his hand.
He hurriedly asked the messenger to wave the flag, signaling Li Yun on the barrier, his brother, to retreat.
Li Yun smiled in the direction of Li Mu on the mountain.
How could he retreat.
He couldn't live up to Zhao Kuo's trust in him.
Similarly, he also has to make way for his younger brother Li Mu.
Wang Rong's performance that day made Li Yun understand that he was reused, and after all, some people were not convinced. And the people who are not convinced are still senior generals under Zhao Kuo.
Although Zhao Kuo did not treat himself badly because of this, he even gave him the tiger talisman and told himself to act cheaply.
But Li Yun mistakenly thought that in one day, in order to take into account the feelings of other generals, his younger brother Li Mu would be difficult to be reused.
"General, my brother Li Mu's talent is ten times better than mine." Li Yun muttered.
He didn't know why Zhao Kuo knew that his younger brother was named Li Mu, but he still remembered that when Zhao Kuo knew that his younger brother was called Li Mu, his attitude towards him instantly became much warmer.
Li Yun was reused after that day.
But he is still very grateful to Zhao Kuo.
He is going to die today.
When he dies, his younger brother Li Mu will be able to take the position, display his talents, and Zhao Kuo will have the best talent to serve him.
Li Yun put the shield on his severed arm and held the short sword in his left hand.
His left sword was still rusty, but that didn't stop him from fighting hard.
"Don't." By the light of the fire, Li Mu saw his brother's movements on Hanwang Mountain and shouted in despair.
