Following the Qin and Zhao parties stopping their offensive, Que and the city slowly returned to calm.
The afterglow of the evening sun should be in the open space outside the city.
One by one, the soldiers of the Qin army were collecting the corpses of Paoze and collecting all the rest of the useful things.
The afterglow of the setting sun should be on them, making them look extraordinarily bleak.
The original piece of green land was also stained red by blood. There were stumps and broken arms everywhere, and stone pits of all sizes were everywhere.
Broken swords, shields, weapons, and sharp arrows filled the ground.
It is shocking to see devastation at first glance.
This is Zhao Chenzheng and other generals in the tent patrolling and visiting the wounded with heavy faces, comforting and encouraging them.
"Hey, it's really tragic. I don't know how long we can last. I am most worried that the enemy will suddenly attack at night, and we will be defeated. I don't know why Master Wang Jian can feel it?"
Zhao Chen said to Qin Yu with a gloomy face.
He didn't expect the enemy's counterattack to be so swift and violent, causing a large number of soldiers to be damaged, and leaving the already stretched troops even more empty.
Everyone looked worried.
This is a messenger running from a distance, shouting loudly: "Generals, Lord Wang Jian led the army less than two miles away from the palace.
I also invite all the generals to go and meet them."
Everyone was immediately refreshed when they heard the news, and hurriedly made preparations for the reception.
"It's all right now. My lord is finally here, don't worry anymore."
Many generals, including Qin Yu, have inexplicable confidence in Wang Jian, because they believe that under Wang Jian's leadership, they will soon capture Queyu, and then directly advance to Handan.
Wang Jian came forward with a dusty look on his face, Zhao Chen and a group of generals welcomed them into the camp, and thought about the current situation of General Wang Jian in detail.
"You have done a good job, but there are a few points that are not enough. Tomorrow, the army will rest for one night and immediately launch an offensive. According to the report from the secret spy in front, Zhao Jun seems to be aware of it. We need to make a quick decision.
You can do this"
Wang Jian first gave a few words of encouragement, and then directly began to issue tasks without procrastinating at all.
Only this truly showed his demeanor as a famous general in the Warring States Period, and Zhao Chen got a lot of inspiration from it, like enlightenment.
Outside the camp, groups of soldiers of the Qin Army slowly entered the camp, appearing very orderly.
Carloads of grain, grass, and equipment were all transported into the camp, ready to be assembled, and ready for tomorrow's battle.
At this time, Yue Yi, who was on the Que and the city, had already come to the city wall under the report of the soldiers, watching the arrival of the main force of the Qin army.
"No, this is the real main force of the Qin army. I fell for it, and I'm so angry! Puff!"
Yue Yi saw at a glance that the enemy's army was close to 100,000, and immediately woke up, realizing that he had been tricked.
Thinking of his stupid behavior, his eyes suddenly went dark, his blood surged up, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
"My lord! My lord, quickly, carry my lord down."
When the others saw that Yue Yi had passed out, they all shouted anxiously.
However, Zhao Chen, who was far away in the Qin army's camp, didn't know that one of his tricks actually vomited blood and knocked the enemy into a coma. Even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Wang Jian ordered the troops to start cooking and prepare to attack.
"Boom, boom, boom!" The thunderous sound of huge war drums resounded in all directions, adding some chill to the morning.
The infantry of the Qin army began to slowly walk out of the camp, and kept approaching the Que and the city.
In this kind of siege warfare, the cavalry is useless, they can only be allowed to cruise around and monitor the surroundings.
Wang Jian ordered the infantry to approach the enemy city first, and then dig a system of trenches and fortifications surrounding the entire city.
In order to cut off the connection between the enemy city and the outside world (it is very difficult to build such a fortification system for a city that is too large, but it is still applicable to attack a huge city and generally require a large army).
This system consisted of ditches, berms and towers, and catapults on the berms.
In order to prevent the enemy from using incendiary weapons to burn the earthworks, the towers are often kept at a certain distance from the walls of the enemy city.
Generally, this kind of fortification system needs to be built in two layers, the inner layer faces the enemy in the city, and the outer layer faces the direction where the enemy reinforcements may attack.
The army is stationed in the fortifications to prevent the enemy from breaking out, and if the enemy reinforcements arrive, they will fight with them.
??? Over a long siege, force the enemy to surrender or attack the city.
Then Wang Jianxian continued to order the catapults to attack continuously to suppress the enemy.
There is also an order to shoot heavy crossbows so that the enemy dare not take the lead and create favorable conditions for the infantry to attack.
Before the impact, the attacking party first uses the catapult and the heavy crossbow to suppress the enemies on the city wall from a long distance, so that the opponents dare not show their faces.
Then the heavy armored shield soldiers opened the way and covered the rear siege troops approaching the city wall. The archers suppressed the enemies on the city wall under the city wall. At this time, the wooden ladder began to climb the city wall, mainly to distract the enemy's attention, and put pressure on the enemy to go to the city everywhere. It is unrealistic to rush to the city wall first by relying on wooden ladders.
At this time, a large number of engineers dug trenches extending to the enemy's city, and the engineers cut off the water source in the upper reaches of the moat, causing the moat to dry up.
After filling in several sections of the moat.
Wang Jian ordered the Lancai and siege towers to advance under the enemy's wall;
And secretly ordered Wang Ben to dig a tunnel, extend it under the enemy's city wall, let the enemy's city wall collapse, and through a series of siege operations, interfere with the enemy and cover up the movement of digging the tunnel;
He also ordered to hit the city wall or gate with a ram.
During this close combat, a large number of catapults and ballistas provided cover.
It is also possible to simply rely on the catapult to throw stones in a concentrated manner, and after damaging a section of the enemy's city wall, soldiers flocked to the city.
By issuing a series of orders, Wang Jian amazed Zhao Chen and others who were present. He deserves to be the most famous general of Qin State after the God of Killing Bai Qi.
The combat experience is extremely rich, and as expected, Jiang is still old and hot, and he is worthy of being a veteran on the battlefield.
On the battlefield, there were shouts of killing everywhere, "Bang bang, swish, puff." The battle was extremely fierce.
Many stones were thrown at the enemy non-stop, hitting the city wall, killing and scratching many Zhao Jun, coupled with the Qin Jun's heavy crossbows constantly suppressing, although Zhao Jun was under the command of the wounded Yueyi, he kept fighting A series of defensive measures such as launching crossbow arrows, bed crossbows, and catapults, but still could not stop the Qin army from approaching continuously.
"Kill! Let me down."
A general of the Zhao army cut down the soldiers of the Qin army who climbed up through the ladder, and pushed down the ladder.
Kill kill kill! Jiu Jiu Lao Qin, strengthen my country! No bleeding, no truce! "
The neat sound of bugles spread all around.
All the Qin troops attacked even more desperately under the sound of bugles, suppressing the enemy for a while, and almost directly attacked the city.
However, under the fierce defense of Yue Yi and the rest of the generals, he still missed a move, so he had no choice but to retreat.
"Use wood, rolling stones, throw them at me, and drive them down."
Yue Yi asked everyone to beat down the Qin army who kept climbing towards the city wall with ladders.
From time to time, Qin Jun fell down, and some Zhao Jun were shot to death by arrows and fell down the city wall.
For a time, rivers of blood flowed from top to bottom of the city wall, and corpses were strewn all over the field. The soldiers of Qin and Zhao armies were fighting bravely, and the battle was very fierce.
"Die to me!" A general of the Qin army killed a Zhao army with a spear.
Suddenly a Zhao Jun attacked with a sword and directly inserted into his abdomen. This Qin Jun smiled ferociously, took a step forward fiercely, and hugged him tightly, not letting go.
At this time, another Qin army beside him directly pierced the abdomen of the general of Zhao army with his sword. "We Qin people are invincible! Die!"
That Qin Jun died of exasperation when he yelled this sentence at the end.
This kind of scene can be seen in many places. For a while, the morale of the Qin army was greatly boosted, but Zhao Jun was a little scared.
Not far away, Yue Yi knew that it was the last moment. If this wave of advance and attack was not retreated in time, Que Yu would definitely be unable to keep it.
"Reserve team, personal guards, follow me!"
Yue Yi had no choice but to send out the reserve troops that he originally wanted to serve as a back-up force. Unexpectedly, they had to be used in the fifth attack.
However, this army lived up to Yue Yi's expectations, and after some hard work, they finally repelled the Qin army.
"Woo hoo! Bang!"
Seeing this, Wang Jian knew that today's battle was almost over, so he ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops.
The Qin army, which had been attacking continuously, suddenly receded slowly like a tide.
?After the Qin army retreated, Yue Yi and his soldiers immediately relaxed their spirits and sat down, feeling a sense of joy in the afterlife version.
The battle of this day lasted for a long time from morning to evening, and the battle was also very fierce.
The Qin army probably lost close to 10,000 people in battle, and the Zhao army also suffered close to 5,000 casualties, and the direct force was reduced by nearly a quarter.
This made Yue Yi feel very frightened, he didn't know how many days he could hold on to the gate.
Especially this series of siege methods made Yue Yi feel very scary, and he didn't know who commanded it.
Yue Yi reluctantly stood up, looked at the Qin army camp not far ahead, and suddenly felt that the road ahead was dark. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)If the number is five thousand, the direct force will be reduced by nearly a quarter.
