End of May.

The scorching sun is high and the heat is steaming, which is just right for fighting.

"When you break through the camp in front of you, you can rest for ten days, during which you will not stop drinking and meat.

If you can rush to Sanzhai in a row, then you can pardon you on the spot, reward you with gold and silver, and let you go home. ”

In front of the army, a general of the Chu army, running back and forth on horseback, said to the many Liang people in front of him who looked panicked, fearful, hateful, angry, and desperate: "But if you dare to retreat, those who disobey military orders ......."

The general pointed to the corpse that was hanging from a few beams: "Them! ”

Then he pointed to the front of the formation, which was nailed to the ground by countless arrows, and directly became the corpse of a hornet's nest: "And them, that is, your end."

If you advance, you will live, and if you retreat, you will die.

Do you understand? ”

Many Liang people, looking at those corpses, their pupils shrunk one by one, their expressions were more afraid, the angry ones were more angry, and the frightened ones were more afraid, but one thing was the same, that is, they didn't speak.

Because they know that the Chu people don't need their answers, and they don't want to hear their answers, all the Chu people want is their own fear.

And so it is.

The general of the Chu people, after coercing and luring, waved his hand: "There are short knives and spears distributed to you in front, and you can go up and get the weapons yourself, and then you can charge into battle." ”

After that, the general official slapped his horse and left here, and walked towards the group of Liang people, who were more numerous, staring at the Chu army formation here.

Many Liang people, you look at me, I look at you, all of them have no action.

Some bold people, seeing that the Chu people had left, couldn't help but curse, obviously hating the group of Chu people who used themselves as cannon fodder.

Airplanes!

At this moment, there was a buzz from behind, and then a row of black clouds, like rain, shot out, and with a bang, they stuck behind Liang Ren.

A few unlucky people screamed, were hit by arrows, and were pinned to the ground, wailing.

"Rush! Rush! Rush! ”

In the rear of the Chu army, countless soldiers held spears, hanging down the ground with the tail of their spears, or striking shields with swords, and shouted intimidation.

Obviously, the Chu people were already very dissatisfied with their procrastination, and the rain of arrows shot behind them was a warning to them.

The Liang people in front of more than 1,000 people, seeing this, gritted their teeth one by one.

Knowing that if he dragged it out any longer, those Chu people behind him would not hesitate to directly release their arrows and shoot themselves and others with arrows.

This kind of thing happened two days ago.

At that time, in front of tens of thousands of Liang captives, thousands of Chu archers shot out of the arrow array without hesitation, directly shooting thousands of Liang people who were dragging and refusing to come forward into a hornet's nest.

One by one, the Liang people ran around the battlefield and fell to the ground wailing.

This extremely shocking scene gave all the Liang prisoners a great shock.

And because of this.

At this time, he was warned, and the Liang captives who had witnessed this scene that day, even if they were afraid in their hearts, they did not dare to delay any longer.

"Grandma's, fight!"

"The left and right are dead, it's better to rush, if you can go back alive, even if you go into the mountains to be a savage in the future, Lao Tzu will not be a soldier."

"I'm rushing, isn't it okay for Lao Tzu to rush?"

Among the Liang people, some people who were forced to be anxious gritted their teeth and rushed forward with red eyes.

On the ground in front of them, thousands of knives and guns were thrown on the ground, stacked haphazardly, and no one took care of them.

These inferior short knives, or even just sharpened bamboo poles and sticks, are the weapons that these Liang people have captured and are waiting to be used in the next charge.

As cannon fodder, they are essentially used to consume Liang Jun's arrows, arrows, wood and stones, as well as the durability of knives and guns, and even physical strength.

Moreover, in order to control the danger, it is impossible for the Chu army to provide these prisoners with good weapons for which it is difficult to stabilize their state.

Otherwise, what if they turn against the water?

With the leading role, one by one the Liang people were captured, and then rushed forward, and then picked up a knife and gun at random, and rushed forward with a scream.

There was no formation, and there was no coordination.

That's how everyone rushed, yelling, as if that would wipe away the despair and fear in their hearts.

Their job is to rush forward.

As long as you rush to the Liang military camp in front of you, and then hit the head of the camp wall, you will have completed today's task.

In the end, even if he was kicked out, he would be able to rest for ten days and be full of wine and meat.

However, there are too few people like this who can come back alive after all, and there may only be one or two out of a hundred people.

The so-called wine and meat are full, and it only cares that a dozen or dozens of people are full, and there is not much food wasted.

Burst!

Poof!

There was a muffled sound, accompanied by screams and wails.

The Liang captives, who were charging forward, were instantly enveloped by arrows and nailed to the road.

On the wall of the Liang people's camp in front, their compatriots showed no mercy, and one by one the Liang people archers opened their arrows and shot at these Liang prisoners.

On the battlefield, there are no countrymen, no fellow villagers, no relatives, and some are just friends and enemies.

As long as you dare to storm the camp, whoever you are, you are my enemy.

"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I'm a Liang person!"

"I am Xu Shi'an of Jiashan Street, Donglin Lane, Anyangfang, Chengcheng, in Daliang City, and I am from Daliang."

"I am Qian Jia, the captain of the Wuyi Army who entered the Luo camp, and I am also the Liang Army, my own people, don't let go of the arrows."

In the crowd of Liang people who rushed into battle, countless people shouted while rushing, waving their hands to sign, and their faces were full of anxiety.

However, they were met with a barrage of arrows.

Puff puff!

One after another people were shot to the ground, screaming and being trampled over, and falling to the ground in pools of blood, gradually losing their voices.

Thousands of Liang people, by the time they rushed to the bottom of the camp, three or four hundred people had already died.

The remaining five or six hundred people carried ladders and climbed up the camp wall directly on the wall.

"Don't throw stones, don't throw stones."

"Don't pour dung, don't pour it, please."

"I didn't want to charge, I just wanted to live, let me go up. When I come up, I will definitely not kill, I will surrender, I will go home. ”

"I'm Liang Jun, I want to return to the team, I want to return to the camp."

"Don't kill me."

Hundreds of Liang people blocked the camp, crying and pleading.

Liang Jun, who was camping on the wall, saw this scene, and all his faces showed unbearable expressions.

The people below, not so long ago, were their comrades.

But in this short period of time, the two sides are on the battlefield, and the soldiers are meeting each other.

No, it should be said that it is their unilateral sword-fighting.

"Team Zheng, these are our Liang people, why don't you let them come up?"

"yes, didn't we say there weren't enough troops? There are also hundreds of people here, put them up, and after the reorganization, won't we have enough troops? ”

"My brother was also assigned to Gushu Mansion not long ago, and I don't know if he is among these captives. What if you kill him? ”

"My father was also assigned to Ningling."

"My uncle is in Yucheng."

Many of the Liang soldiers guarding the village were also injured at this time, and they begged the commander one after another.

However, the battalion commander turned a deaf ear to these pleas, and just said coldly: "Pour dung water, throw stones, push ladders, and carry out military orders." ”

This merciless order immediately stung many Liang soldiers.

The fate of those former comrades below reminds them all the time that if they are captured in the future, then the same experience will most likely befall them.

At that time, he was forced to storm the walled city, and at that time, he cried and shouted like this, and his former comrades, what should he do without sparing?

This kind of thought is in the hearts of many people.

"My lord, they are all comrades."

"Let them in, sir...... Yes! ”

Poof!

With a muffled sound, accompanied by a scream, the camp guard pulled out the knife in his hand, and one of the Liangren soldiers who shouted the loudest fell to the ground.

The guard looked at the stunned people around him, pointed to the distance, and was slowly approaching, and the army of Chu people who were leaning towards this side: "Do you see the Chu people over there?"

It's because you didn't do it for a long time, and let the people below block this place, and they killed them.

It's easy to pick up these people, but what to do with the chaos after they come up?

Do you have to rush to meet the Chu people?

At that time, the camp will not be defended.

And among the people below, who knows if there are any Chu people?

If there is a gap in it, what if they make trouble when the Chu people kill?

When the camp is broken, you will all be captured, and you will be the next money man who is forced to charge the battle with swords and guns. ”

Many Liang people looked at it.

It was indeed found that just behind those Liang prisoners, one by one the Chu army formations were pressing towards this side.

These Chu people are very fast, maybe they can get close to the front.

And in this short period of time, the camp here must not be able to be settled, and the hundreds of Liang people below have been captured.

At that time, it will be a mess, and there may be spies, and this camp really can't be defended.

On the wall, at this time, there were already fifty or sixty Liang people captive, climbed up, and they were in a mess, making a mess of the originally orderly city wall.

In that area, the Liang people were killed, and they couldn't defend the city well.

Several low-level generals of the Liang people, at this time, with their subordinates, sweating all over their heads, arranged these comrades who fled up, looking anxious.

"Let the captives be taken into the camp at once, so that they may be kept in care. If you dare to make trouble, you will not be forgiven. ”

When the camp owner saw this scene, he immediately ordered with a cold face.

"Yes!"

A few guards behind him received the order, ordered a team of people, and ran up to deal with it.

After the order was given, the camp master did not take care of it anymore, but continued to issue an order: "Others, immediately abide by their duties, there are no Liang people in the city, and there are no comrades, only enemies."

Don't listen to what they shout, just kill me.

If there is any hesitation, military law will deal with it! Kill! ”

Under the harsh military order, the blood of the noisy soldier on the ground was still flowing, but his life was gone.

In the distance, the Chu army was approaching.

Under the bloody examples and threats, many Liang soldiers did not dare to say more.

Under the shouts of the respective Woosh commanders and generals, they gritted their teeth and lifted the stones and dung water one by one, and then threw them down with their eyes closed in a wailing and exclamation below.

Suddenly, there was a scream.

"! These people don't treat us as countrymen at all. ”

"A group of people who have no conscience will be killed along with their comrades."

"Fight with them."

"I know that these officials can't believe it, instead of begging them, it's better to listen to the Chu people, rush to the camp, and get rich."

Below, the Liang captives, who suffered a series of blows in an instant, finally had a rebellious mentality under the extreme despair and a betrayal of the emotional rendering.

They were red-eyed and asked no more.

One by one, they gritted their teeth and quickly climbed up the wall, and then took advantage of some former comrades who were still unbearable, and in a helpless situation, they picked up the short knife in their hands and stabbed it.

Puff puff puff.

The white knife enters, and the red blade comes out.

With a push of his hand, a figure full of disbelief fell to the ground.

"Why should we be forced to rush with knives, they can point knives at us."

The Liang captive, who had just killed a former comrade, stood at the head of the city, raised his sword and shouted: "Kill them, break this camp, and let them be forced to rush forward like us."

No, it's us who drink wine and eat meat and watch them rush in front. ”

"Kill them, break the camp!"

"Kill them, break the camp!"

These extremely demagogic words instantly ignited the despicability in the hearts of all the Liang captives.

If you are not good at yourself, you can't see the good of others.

A thought that wants to destroy the good.

It appeared in everyone's minds.

The beast in his heart, released from his cage at this time, began to wreak havoc.

"Put these rebels to peace."

"Traitor."

"Kill these guys who don't know what to do."

The soldiers of Liang on the city wall, seeing these countrymen and their former comrades behaving like this at this time, were also ignited with anger one by one.

Thinking of what the main general said before, I couldn't help but stop holding my hand.

The two sides fought like this.

However, how could a group of captives who lacked armor, did not have enough to eat, and did not even have good weapons be the opponents of the Liang defenders who had the advantage.

After the defenders got serious, in just a moment, the Liang people who rushed to the city wall were taken prisoner, and they were all driven down.

Even some of the Liang prisoners below Zhaiqiang were killed and injured under the impact of the falling wood and stones and the poured dung water one after another.

The remaining more than 100 captives were also completely frightened by this tragic scene.

Crying and screaming, he fled backwards.

The Liang soldiers on the city wall also aroused their murderous intent after experiencing a bloody battle just now.

Ignoring any of their fellow countrymen, the archers took up their arrows, and when they saw those who had fled, they shot them.

One figure after another, under the aim of the arrow, fell to the ground.

After those Liang captives ran back, there were only more than 30 of the original thousands of people.

The losses of these captives were so heavy just for a while.

The Chu army formation in the distance stopped approaching when those Liang soldiers were not left behind.

After the captives were killed, they retreated to their original positions and watched from a distance.

It's as if it's none of your business, and it's like staying out of it.

Isn't that what it is?

A group of Liang people are infighting, what are they Chu people mixed with?

"Very well, you are all warriors, rushed to the camp."

It was still the Chu general in front of him, and he rode back again to Liang Ren, who had fled, lying down, sitting, or standing, with a smile, sluggishness, panic, and obvious mental problems.

"According to the promise, for the next ten days, you will be open to eat and drink, and you will not have to go to war again.

If you have already rushed for a while, you will accumulate the number of times you have been charged again.

When it is three times, they will give you a hundred taels of silver, and let you go home rich and rich. ”

The general of the Chu people swore an oath of reward and punishment again, and waved his hand to let people take these prisoners away.

He was quite satisfied with this charge.

Although thousands of cannon fodder died at once, these cannon fodder were also very meaningful.

Not only did it consume a large number of arrows, wood, stones, dung and other materials for defending the city of the Liang people in the camp in front, but it also dealt a severe blow to the Liang people in the camp.

The most important thing was a Liang infighting, and these prisoners killed at least more than 100 Liang soldiers guarding the village.

That's a lot of gains.

I won't let Liang Ren consume it by himself with a single soldier, isn't this kind of thing worth being happy about?

As for the serious attrition of the captives?

In the big camp, there are still hundreds of thousands of Liang people who have surrendered their troops, and in the rear counties, there are even millions of prisoners.

With so much cannon fodder, it can't be consumed at all.

Anyway, it is also an unstable factor, and if it is put back on the ground, it will bring chaos to the Chu State.

It's better to take the opportunity to play the girder and clean up the brain.

Although it is a bit cruel, it is a good strategy for long-term stability.

"Ci is not in charge of the soldiers."

The Chu general looked at the bloody battlefield in front of him, touched the matching sword on his waist, and whispered to himself.

……

As dusk fell, a bloody war finally stopped.

In the big camp, Lu Yuan received the attrition statistics of today's captives, as well as the results of the battle.

"Sixty thousand prisoners died, two camps were breached, 8,000 Liang troops were killed, and more than 3,000 were captured."

Looking at the report handed over by the adjutant in the army, he nodded slightly, and his expression was flat: "It's not bad, according to this posture, in another half a month, you will be able to clean up almost all the camps outside the beam." ”

In the past half a month, after the prisoners were escorted to the camp, the Chu army officially began the attack on Daliang, or the attack on the outer camps of Daliang.

The Liang army set up and excavated more than 100 camps around Daliang, with a total of 400,000 people stationed.

They are the second line of defense outside the beam, after removing the three mansions of Ningling, Yucheng and Gushu.

If you don't pull out these hundreds of nails, the Chu army won't even be able to touch the corner of Daliang City.

Therefore, if you want to attack the beam, you must first break the camp.

This is undoubtedly a project that needs to be filled with human lives.

Fortunately, millions of prisoners gathered in the camp, and Chu Jun had enough cannon fodder to use.

It's not.

After fighting for more than half a month, more than 700,000 Liang prisoners were killed, and more than half of the camp outside the Liang was pulled out.

The defenders in the camp also died more than 100,000 and captured 50,000 or 60,000.

These captives were not wasted.

Just caught today, tomorrow will be like their predecessors, forced by the Chu army with knives and guns, and go to the battlefield.

It was quickly recycled.

It is precisely by relying on this high efficiency and efficiency that the Chu army's strategic breakthrough of a large number of layers of peripheral defense lines can be described as extremely smooth.

According to the current speed of advancement, Lu Yuan has optimistically made an estimate, and in half a month, he will be able to touch the edge of Daliang City.

"However, the loss of prisoners is a bit serious, and here in the camp, there are less than 300,000 people left."

He frowned, then picked up the silk silk again and wrote the order: "Let's let the rear send another 500,000 people, cannon fodder is a bit insufficient." ”

Under the cold pen and paper, the vivid lives flashed by and turned into a string of numbers.
