The sun was setting to the west, and it was less than three hours before dark. It was time to start attacking. Zhao Chen was going to attack the city before dark. After all, it would not do them any good if it took too long.
Neatly arranged phalanxes stood outside the city gate. They were all ready, their bows and arrows were drawn, and they were all eager to try.
Zhao Chen led nearly a hundred cavalry to stand quietly behind the team. He couldn't help but nodded when he saw the soldiers moving forward under the command of their respective generals. He knew it was time to attack.
"How's the preparation going!" Zhao Chen asked a messenger.
"General, everything is ready!"
"Okay, order people to beat the drums and sound the trumpets! It is heard that the various ministries are starting to attack! Break through the city before dark!"
Zhao Chen pointed his halberd directly at Liuyang, and ordered all the soldiers to arrive.
"Yes!" A resounding echo sounded.
A messenger riding a tall horse rushed out, holding up the command flag to inform the various troops.
"Wooooow! Boom! Boom! Boom!" A desolate and majestic horn sounded, but it made people's blood boil, accompanied by fierce and passionate drums resounded through the audience.
"Command the general! All attack! Break through the city before dark!" The orderly kept shouting loudly on the battlefield, making sure everyone could hear him clearly.
"The general has an order! Start attacking! The archers are ready! Three-stage shooting! Let it go!"
All the archers stretched their bowstrings into a full moon shape, aiming at Liuyang City, and at the command of their generals, all arrows were fired at once, only to see a dense rain of arrows forming a huge dark cloud, covering the sky and blocking out the sun Generally, it directly shrouded Liuyang City. The sound of arrows piercing through the air accompanied by the whistling sound covered the audience.
"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh," those Korean soldiers on the opposite side were shot into hornet's nests by the unprepared arrows, and suffered heavy losses.
"Ah! My eyes!"
"Not good! Help! Pfft!" A shrill scream sounded on the city wall.
When these archers kept attacking, those catapults and cavalry were not to be outdone, and they also started their own attacks. Huge and heavy stones shot straight at the enemy city like meteorites, mixed with violent roars. The morale of the enemy who was directly smashed was low, and it was impossible to form an effective resistance.
Guan Fei, on the other hand, followed the previous method of attacking Zhengcheng. He kept firing salvos of bows and arrows on the periphery, suppressing the top of the city and reducing their vitality.
And the infantry of the Qin army who followed closely after their attack began also took the opportunity to quickly approach the city, carrying ladders, pushing carts, holding shields, and under the cover of archers, they kept approaching.
"Hurry up, bow and arrow suppression, three hundred steps, two hundred steps, one hundred steps. Let go!"
When Tie Liu saw the Qin army's offensive and the densely packed infantry, he immediately felt bad.
Under the protection of his personal guards holding shields, he hurriedly gave orders.
The Han Jun on the city wall just woke up like a dream, and quickly took action.
The bows and crossbows were fired again and again, desperately suppressing the enemy's offensive, and suddenly you came and went, bows and arrows shot in all directions.
One by one the Qin army held shields to resist the arrows shot by the Han army, but many people were shot and fell to the ground and died.
"Crack!" Ladders were set up one by one and hung on the city wall. Qin soldiers gathered shields above their heads, held weapons, and kept climbing.
"Still the stone, the wood. Pour the golden juice."
A general hurriedly ordered.
A piece of stone was smashed down one after another, and some of them were knocked down directly on the shield of the Qin army, and fell down;
Some soldiers pushed hard directly, blocked the stone, fell under the city wall, and continued to climb.
The foul-smelling golden juice poured down the wall from the hands of several Han Jun who had blocked their noses.
The hot and filthy juice was poured on Qin Jun's shields, and many Qin Jun were directly burned, and they fell to the ground and howled, with hideous and terrifying faces.
However, the soldiers of the Qin army were not frightened by the tragedy at all, but continued to attack the city wall even more desperately.
The rushing cars below were also crashing into the city gate non-stop, with non-stop thumping.
"One-two hit! One-two hit! Ah, poof!"
The trumpets kept ringing, not because some soldiers were shot by arrows, but as long as one person was killed, a new one would be added immediately.
On the city wall, after the Qin army sacrificed their lives, many soldiers of the Qin army climbed onto the city wall one after another. One Qin army directly slashed at the Han army with a sword, and thensp; Time passed, and half an hour soon arrived. All the soldiers first retreated, and then regrouped and attacked again. Soldiers were mobilized from other places to support again, and this barely resisted the Qin army's attack.
Zhao Chen looked at the scene in front of him, he was very satisfied, and fine-tuned the Qin army's arrangement from time to time to make the enemy more resistant.
At this moment, suddenly a messenger came to him with a piece of cloth: "General Qi, our army has already joined General Chen Ling. This is his plan. General, please take a look!"
Zhao Chen also couldn't help being surprised, he took the cloth and examined it carefully, his eyes couldn't help showing joy.
"Okay! The overall situation is settled! Order Guan Fei to lead the cavalry to meet at the west gate! After half a stick of incense, whistle to signal, and when the gate opens, attack the city in one fell swoop! I want to see my Daqin flag hanging on the west gate within half an hour. Head of Liuyang city!"
"It's the general!" The messenger came to meet Guan Fei in person with the general's order, and conveyed the order to him.
After receiving the order, Guan Fei didn't dare to delay and led the cavalry to set off immediately. After a while, he came to the west gate and joined other soldiers of the Qin army.
After half a stick of incense, "Drip! Shoo!" a strange sound spread throughout Ximen.
At this time, Chen Ling, who had been ready for a long time, also ordered the whole army to attack. Before they could react, all the soldiers of the Korean army pierced their bodies from behind with weapons and opened the city. At the city gate, and lit a fire at the city gate, the other part of the undercover Korean army began to create chaos in the city, lighting the fire, all the Han army was stunned by this sudden change, and everyone acted in disorder lump.
"The gate is open! The whole army is attacking! Kill!" Guan Fei rode his horse and galloped straight away, leading thousands of elite cavalry to attack Huanglong, followed by the infantry.
"Kill! Those who surrender will not die!" Guan Fei and Chen Ling's troops slaughtered all the recalcitrant Korean soldiers like chopping melons and vegetables.
When the west gate was breached, the east gate and the south gate were also lost immediately. Tie Liu directly led some soldiers to flee from the north gate, Zheng Li died in battle, and the other Korean soldiers were not killed. Either they were captured, or they fled from the north gate.
In the end, only less than 2,000 Han troops survived.
The whole Liuyang shouted and killed, resounding through the sky, and the flames of war filled the air. Zhao Chen didn't make a move, but just watched quietly on the spot. He knew that there was no suspense at this time, so he led some cavalry to watch the commotion in the city and evaluate it. Lead the army into the city.
In this battle, the Qin army lost more than 6,000 people, and the Han army had more than 10,000 people, only about 1,000 escaped. The rest were either killed or captured. It has been directly advanced for one or two hundred miles, and it has approached other counties in South Korea. So far, all the cities in South Korea have been exposed to the soldiers of Qin State. The situation in Qin State is very good, but the situation in South Korea has become very critical. . (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
