"Mozi" has a saying that in the case of the equal ability of the generals of both sides, in the face of a conventional city defended by 4,000 regular troops, it takes 100,000 regular troops to attack to win.

The strength of Xicheng was not enough to go out of the city for field battles.

But if you just face the 100,000 Qin army led by Ying Chengcheng, there is no problem in holding it for a few months.

Even if the siege starts today, will you really be able to take the city tonight?

Moreover, isn't our plan to surrender first and then take advantage of the enemy's unpreparedness to make an attack!

A large number of question marks popped up in Yang Hu's head.

But Ying Chengcheng has already given an order, and Yang Hu can only promise: "Only! ”

2nd Quarter of the Day (13:30)

With the efforts of the baggage battalion, six flying stone carts rose from the ground outside the north gate of Xicheng.

More than a dozen simple ladders have also been built and sent to the first camp.

On the upper floor of the north gate of Xicheng, looking at the arrangement of the Qin army from afar, Chen He frowned: "What does General Qin want?" ”

"Before the large army camp was firmly established, the baggage battalion was dispatched to build siege equipment."

"The six flying stone carts all fell outside the north city gate, isn't this clearly telling me that the north city gate of the army is the main attack city gate, and heavy troops should be deployed to guard against it?"

No matter how he thought about it, Chen He couldn't think of the purpose of Qin Jun's arrangement.

The brains are about to be burned!

Zhang Da looked at the banner of the Qin army from afar, and thoughtfully said: "If the official's guess is correct, the commander of this army will be Qin State Changjun." ”

"This man is good at his lips and tongue, and he has never heard of this man going to battle."

"Maybe this person doesn't have any other thoughts, but he doesn't know how to soldier?"

Chen He shook his head: "If you don't know the soldiers, how can the King of Qin entrust the 100,000 army to him, and he will lead the army as the main general?" ”

Zhang Da asked a little puzzled: "Won't it?" ”

Thinking of South Korea's national conditions, Chen He was speechless.

Entrusting the army to a man who does not understand war is something that South Korea has done a lot in recent years.

Otherwise, South Korea would not have guarded the world's first iron mine, sitting on the world's largest number of craftsmen and population, but it has been defeated in foreign wars repeatedly.

However, the enemy army is not Korea, but Qin!

Chen He is still firm in his attitude:

"Even if this person doesn't know how to fight, the King of Qin should send a steady general to help!"

"This official can't judge what General Qin's intentions are now, but he must have a purpose in doing so."

"This official intends to put all the militia at the north city gate, 4,000 county soldiers to guard the other city gates, 4,000 county soldiers to prepare for battle, 1,000 county soldiers to patrol the city to prevent water, fire and soil attack, and 1,000 county soldiers to be the new force."

After emergency conscription, more than 12,000 young and middle-aged people were conscripted into the army, forming a militia force.

If the Qin army really regarded the North City Gate as the main point of attack, more than 12,000 militiamen would be enough to resist several rounds of onslaught.

If the Qin army really used a strategy, the county soldiers would be enough to deal with the emergency.

Zhang Da couldn't think of a flaw, so he nodded happily: "Good!" ”

At the same time, the Qin army was in front of the army.

Six hundred baggage soldiers stood behind the assembled trebuchet, patiently waiting for the ammunition.

But they didn't wait for the expected stone bullet, but waited for Ying Chengcheng's personal soldiers and dozens of carriages.

"Be careful with your movements, don't break it!"

"Come, come, take the handle, put these jars in your net."

Wang Pan, the two or five hundred lord of the baggage camp, looked at the pottery altar on the carriage, frowned and asked, "Where is the stone bullet?" ”

Su Jiao held up a token and said in a deep voice: "I am the commander of the main general's personal soldiers, Su Jiao." ”

"The general ordered these altars to be cast at the gates of the enemy army and into the city."

Wang Pan arched his hand and explained: "Our army has never thrown this altar. ”

"Accuracy is not guaranteed."

At the end of the order, Su Jiao didn't keep a straight face, pointed to the vehicle behind him and explained with a smile: "So the general has prepared a lot, enough for General Wang Bai to practice." ”

"The general's requirements are not high, it is better to smash the city gate, followed by the city gate, and it is acceptable to throw it into the city again."

Su Jiao said so, Rao is Wang Pan had many doubts in his heart, and he could only give up: "Only! ”

The jar filled with liquid, although about the size of a stone bullet, was much lighter.

Soon, the six pottery altars were packed into the net pockets of the six catapults.

Every hundred shirtless baggage soldiers grabbed the rope of a catapult and waited for it.

Seeing that it was ready, Su Jiao raised a small yellow flag in the direction of the center of the front army.

Confirming that the trebuchet had been prepared, Ying Cheng shouted in a deep voice: "Throw!" ”

At the sound of an order, a hundred baggage soldiers roared in unison: "Throw! ”

During the shouting, a hundred baggage soldiers pulled up the rope and ran backwards, pulling the power arm and falling rapidly.

The net bag hanging at the other end of the arm is lifted upward, and when the net bag slides past the highest point, the jar contained in the net pocket flies along the parabola towards Xicheng!

Seeing an altar flying towards the city gatehouse, Chen He violently pushed Zhang Da away and reminded loudly: "Shangguan, be careful!" ”

"Wow~~~"

The jar smashed to Zhang Da's side and shattered.

The shattered pottery shards stabbed two soldiers, but did not cause more damage, except for a pool of liquid.

Seeing this, Chen He became more and more puzzled: "What is this!" ”

Zhang Da leaned over and dipped his finger in some to observe carefully, but shook his head helplessly: "I haven't seen this official." ”

"What the Qin army's trebuchet threw was not a stone bullet, but such a strange thing, what did the Qin army want?"

Chen He looked at the Qin troops outside the city wall who were reloading, and frowned: "This official doesn't know." ”

"But Qin Jun is definitely not here to make trouble, and his actions must be meaningful."

"The things in this altar are bound to be in danger."

Chen He thinks that he is also a battle-hardened general, but he is trapped in his background and cannot serve as a general.

But he's never fought such a weird battle!

In the face of the unknown, Chen He could only be cautious and careful.

Chen He turned his head to the herald and ordered: "Quickly order the people to clean up, and wash it carefully!" ”

The herald immediately surrendered: "Only! ”

Yaoyao saw a man leaning out half of his body, wiping the city wall with a linen cloth, and ordered in a deep voice:

"Order the crossbowmen of the former army, do not skimp on crossbow arrows, and shoot in turns to cover!"

"Embark first!"

A man dressed in a cloth robe, carrying a Qin sword at his waist, and a vicissitudes of life, stepped forward and took a wooden shield as high as one of them, or carried a pair of cloud ladders with his robe.

After the two hundred pioneers took their equipment, Captain Zhou Yan asked:

"Does anyone want to quit?"

"Quitting now, don't break the law."

The two hundred pioneers did not nod, did not shake their heads, nor did they answer, but were silent.

If there was a way out, they would not have come to camp first in the first place.

Zhou Yan didn't wait for an answer or be surprised, but just waved his hand:

"Serve!"

A group of military judges stepped forward with wine jars in their hands, handed each of the warriors who ascended first, and poured them full of wine.

Zhou Yan also held a bowl of wine in his hand and said in a deep voice: "This time you will die in battle." ”

"But it's worth it!"

Zhou Yan cheered excitedly: "Pave the cloud ladder to help seize the city's tun, and the whole tun soldiers should be knights." ”

"Whoever ascends first and captures the flag will be knighted second."

"The one who enters the city first, the doctor of Shizhiguo, will give the upper field house!"

"This time, our army came in a hurry, and the enemy army was unprepared, which is a God-given opportunity to win military merits."

"Ben will congratulate you!"

Listening to Zhou Yan's words, the breathing of the pioneers became short.

Aren't they risking their lives to join the first camp for these benefits!

Most of the pioneers were slaves, or their families were slaves and sinners.

If they don't fight, they will be worse off than dead in this life.

But if you can win, you will have a chance to win the Lord and become the nobleman of Great Qin!

Even if he died, as long as Bentun could put the ladder up the city wall, he would also receive a first-class knighthood, which would be inherited by the person they designated.

It's not a vain death.

Seeing that the army's heart was almost mobilized, Zhou Yan raised the wine bowl and shouted loudly:

"May you take the city first!"

Hundreds of warriors shouted in unison: "Take the city first!" ”

When the words fell, everyone, including Zhou Yan, drank all the wine in the bowl and slammed the wine bowl to the ground.

"Click~Click~"

With the sound of the pottery bowl breaking, the warriors of Xiandeng held the wooden shield and the ladder, and rushed towards the north gate of Xicheng, roaring angrily:

"Go first! Go first! ”
