Chapter 766: Massacre

"Yes. Now the blizzard weather, the climate is bad, it is impossible for the crusaders to gather a large army from too far away to attack Tongzhou City, then, the only feasible way is to gather the garrisons of the small towns around Tongzhou City to Tongzhou City, now the weather is cold, the weather is bad, gather the crusaders from the surroundings, at least three days or more, three days later, the crusaders assembled, at this time, they traveled a long way to prepare for a bloody battle, but they did not expect that there were no Great Qin soldiers in Tongzhou City, which would make them overjoyed, tense nerves, and fall into exhaustion, then, at this time, the crusaders could not return immediately, plus Tongzhou City was rich in materials, at leastIn addition, once we annihilate these crusaders, then the surrounding towns and villages will return to the control of Daqin, and some places in Daqin will also have a chance to breathe, as long as they breathe their breath, when the time comes, they will become the intermediate force to resist the crusaders......"

"I see!"

Tu Lao Er and a group of generals around him all looked at Zhao Yuan with reverence.

Zhao Yuan's plan can be said to be seamless, not only to speculate on the military operations of the crusaders, but even to extrapolate the situation faced by the crusaders, all of which are incredible.

The blizzard was still raging on the land, the north wind was howling, and the whole sky was gray.

An army of more than 100,000 people is trudging through the snowfields in white cloaks, and everyone knows that today, they will create a new miracle.

The icy snowflakes didn't cool down the boiling blood.

More than 100,000 soldiers, including new recruits, were full of fighting spirit, looking forward to the miracle that was about to befall them, and looking forward to the stunned faces of the crusaders.

When they arrived outside Tongzhou City, this mighty army was divided into three routes, and approached Tongzhou City little by little by means of the wind and snow that covered the sky and the sun, and everyone was careful and did not make the slightest sound, because the soldiers knew very well that every time they got closer to Tongzhou City, there would be a little more victory and fewer casualties.

At the same time, Zhao Yuan sent all the good men around him, including a group of monsters, and began to hunt down the sentries of the Crusaders.

On this cold night, there was hardly a human figure on the city walls, and even the occasional head wrapped in fur poked out, and there was a symbolic glance outside, in fact, no one thought that anyone would attack the city on this night when the ice and snow were like blades.

There is no moonshine.

However, under the light of the snow, the outline of the towering city wall of Tongzhou City is still clearly visible, and several gaps that have been crushed by the blood barbarian bull are still vivid.

Outside the three crashed city walls, thousands of Great Qin infantry had already gathered densely.

The anti-slip material, which had been prepared for a long time, was laid on the gaps in the city wall layer by layer......

......

The first to attack the city were not infantry, nor blood bulls, but a few thousand cavalry.

It is worth mentioning here that when the last time Tongzhou City was captured, although Daqin captured more than 20,000 war horses, however, there were war horses, but there were not many soldiers who were good at riding and shooting.

Among the hundreds of thousands of troops, a total of more than 3,000 cavalry were selected, which shows the scarcity of Great Qin cavalry.

More than 3,000 cavalrymen, with their horse's hooves wrapped in velvet blankets, quietly stepped on the city wall.

When the 3,000 cavalry stepped onto the city walls, they were finally discovered by a conscientious crusader sentry.

It is impossible for 3,000 cavalry to completely hide the traces, but the fact that 3,000 cavalry can climb the city wall is already a victory.

When the screams of the sentry pierced through the sky, hundreds of thousands of troops began to make earth-shattering shouts of killing, and at the same time, the three thousand cavalry soldiers divided into two ways and began to rush back and forth on the city wall unscrupulously.

At the same time, hundreds of thousands of Great Qin infantry, followed by hundreds of bloody bulls, rushed into Tongzhou City like a torrent of steel.

This time, the Blood Barbarian Bull acted separately, they smashed straight into the already broken city gate, and then, three or five heads together, rushed forward along the street, and behind them, there was a tide of Great Qin troops.

The dense Great Qin infantry crowded the streets to the point that they could not be impassable, even if there were occasional Crusader cavalry rushing out, first they were hit by the blood bull and turned over on their backs, and then, in the blink of an eye, they were slashed and killed by the rushing Great Qin infantry, and they had no power to fight back.

More and more crusaders woke up from their sleep, disheveled, scurrying around the city like headless flies, but soon they were drowned in the crowd.

This Great Qin army, although there are a lot of recruits, but the total number of more than 130,000, not including more than 3,000 cavalry, already has an absolute advantage in numbers, plus the sudden sneak attack and hundreds of invincible blood bulls, plus the crusaders did not ride horses, against 70,000 crusaders, the victory of the Great Qin Empire, there is no suspense.

Leave no mouth alive!

Don't take prisoners!

This was an order given by Tu Lao Er, and in the face of this order, Zhao Yuan pretended not to hear it.

Although Zhao Yuan is on the list of villains, he is not a brutal person, but at the same time, Zhao Yuan is not a kind person, he knows the current environment very well, the crusaders are expeditions, there is almost no supply of soldiers, kill one and one less, if you let go, the other party can turn around and slaughter the Great Qin soldiers on horseback, as for the capture, it is a burden, not to mention eating, but also to arrange people and places to accept them, the gains outweigh the losses.

When the Great Qin soldiers poured into Tongzhou City, this was no longer a battle, but a one-sided massacre, more than 70,000 crusaders, and only 100 escaped, and these nearly 100 people were also deliberately let go by Zhao Yuan.

The massacre continued until noon the next day, when the head of one of the last crusaders in Tongzhou City was cut off, and the entire city of Tongzhou suddenly fell into a dead silence.

More than 70,000 people.

More than 70,000 lives.

Now, it has become 70,000 mutilated corpses.

"Corpses piled up like mountains" and "rivers of blood" are no longer enough to describe the scene of Tongzhou City.

The corpses of the crusaders, stretching from the street to the end of the street, were mixed with the ice and snow, forming a piece of crimson ice, and the occasional piece of white snow, but it looked unusually striking and terrifying.

This massacre in Tongzhou City was the largest casualty of the Crusaders since the outbreak of the war in the Great Qin Empire......

When the bloody and brutal massacre was over, the trembling people dared to take to the streets, and immediately, they were stunned by the scene in front of them......

......

Zhao Yuan's army quietly withdrew, but quietly killed back.

This time, there were no cheers or shouts, because everyone was shocked by the endless corpses.

In the face of the war machine, life is extremely fragile......

That night, the casualty numbers of the Great Qin army came out.

27,000 were killed and more than 2,000 wounded.

This casualty ratio shocked Zhao Yuan, you must know that this time the return of the horse gun can be said to be well thought-out, the crusaders almost did not have the slightest resistance, but still caused nearly 30,000 casualties.

However, Tu Lao Er was very satisfied with this casualty ratio, and the reason they gave was very simple, because among the thirteen Qin soldiers, at least half of the recruits, many of them took up arms to fight for the first time, and casualties were inevitable.
