Chapter 591 As long as I am shameless, what can you do to me? Jingpo is truly a filial son of the Jing family!
May 15th.
Forty catapults stand on the west and south sides of Xiapi City.
With the painful creaking sound of the wood, stones weighing hundreds of kilograms were thrown into the sky, and then crashed into the wall of Xiapi City!
The sand disintegrated, covering the corpses under the city with a layer of dust.
More than a thousand cavalry were parading outside the south city gate, shouting loudly in groups of a hundred:
“Three battles and three defeats are still in command, and the hero of destroying Chu is Xiang Yan!”
“ How dare you invade our Daqi territory and fight against Nai Gong? "Why don't you dare to invade our Daqi territory?" Take care of yourself!”
“My dear son, come out of the city to see me quickly! Otherwise, Naiweng will come to the city to find you!”
Insults that could be described as extremely vicious in today's era were thrown into Xiapi City, making many Chu soldiers stare angrily, wishing they could leave the city immediately and fight to the death with the Qin-Qi coalition forces!
But when they thought of Xiang Yan's order, they could only suppress the resentment in their hearts and sigh helplessly.
After the Qin and Qi forces cursed for a long time, more than 3,000 warriors from the Qi army suddenly swarmed toward the city wall like ants.
"Raise your shield! Speed up and charge forward!"
"The one who climbs the city wall first will be rewarded with five hundred sword coins! There is also a chance to be rewarded with the Tiger Lord! All robes, kill!"
"Seize the city! Go find my good boy!!"
Listening to the shouts outside the city that seemed to be uttered with life, Xiang Yan's expression did not change, but he calmly ordered: "Order!"
"Captain Zhaoyuan's troops ascended the city, fired crossbow bolts outside the west gate, and then opened the west gate."
"Captain Xiong Liu led his troops out of the west gate and fought with the enemy, involving Attention the enemy."
"Captain Qu Lu is preparing for battle at the south city gate, and is on standby at any time!"
"Duwei Duzhan sent troops to flank the Qin army's right wing!"
Under Xiang Yan's order, Zhaoyuan's troops quickly boarded the city, and 10,000 Chu troops held crossbows and set off a barrage of crossbow arrows outside the city. Metal storm!
Seeing that the Qin and Qi coalition forces outside the city had to hold up their shields to block and fell to the ground with mournful voices, Xiong Liu laughed heartily: "Men, follow me closely!"
"Charge and kill!"< br>
The west city gate was opened and the suspension bridge was lowered, carrying Xiong Liu's troops to charge towards the main force of the Qin Army's front army!
On the top of a huge mountain six miles west of Xiapi City, a solid military camp made of rammed earth opened its gate simultaneously. The Douzhan troops went down the slope without hesitation and charged against the right wing of the Qin army!
“Break the formation!!!”
The intensity of the battle suddenly intensified.
But the generals of Qin, Qi, and Chu did not change their colors.
Because such intense battles will be staged every day during this half-month-long offensive and defensive battle!
Seeing the lack of movement by the Qin army, Xiang Yan felt a little disappointed, and then ordered: "Open the south gate!"
"Captain Qu Lu led two thousand knights, thirty chariots, and healthy soldiers. Three thousand went out to fight."
"Don't worry about anything else, burn the Qin army's catapults and immediately return to the city!"
Qu Lu solemnly handed over: "Wei! Under the cover of Xiong Liu and Douzhan's Second Division, Qu Lu led a mobile force composed of cavalry, chariots and elite warriors to pour out of the south city gate, and then pierced the Qin army's catapult straight away!
Advance!
Surge!
Advance at all costs!
Seeing a fire burning from the south in the distance, Xiang Han shouted excitedly: "Color!"
"Big color!"
"Our army finally burned down the catapults from the south. In this way, our army's great trouble can be solved!"
Although Xiapi City is also an important military town with a vast area and a built-in iron smelting workshop, its However, the city wall is far inferior to Daliang City, Helu City and other fortified cities.
If the Qin army is allowed to continue to hit the city wall with heavy boulders one after another, Xiapi City will not be able to hold on for long!
Although after destroying some of the catapults, Ying Chengyu will definitely continue to ask craftsmen to build catapults, but building new catapults also takes time.
As long as Xiapi City can hold on for one more day, the Chu army will have one more chance of victory!
Qu Huan looked at the Qi army in front of Qu Lu's headquarters who were hurriedly avoiding it, and then at the Qi army that was charging crazily towards Qu Lu's left and right sides. He thought thoughtfully: "I thought that the Qin-Qi coalition forces seemed to have some strength. Signs of losing control?"
Xiang Yan finally smiled: "That's right."
"Qin Changan's strategy certainly made the Qi army's morale stronger."
"However, Qin Chang'an's strategy is not a foolproof strategy, nor can it last long."
"The trend of profit-seeking and extravagance has become more and more popular, and the Qi army will be uncontrollably greedy for profit and cowardly when faced with danger."
< br>
"If this were not the case, Qu Lu's troops would not be able to achieve their success!"
Qu Che was overjoyed: "If this is the case, as long as our army continues to hold on, the shortcomings of the Qin-Qi coalition forces will manifest themselves."
"Perhaps within a few months, the Qin-Qi coalition forces will become a piece of loose sand, which can be easily captured by our army!"
Xiang Yan still had a faint smile on his face, but shook his head: "Don't be careless."
"Qin Changan Jun is not an easy person. Since Qin Changan Jun took this strategy, he must have expected the possibility that our army will not be able to hold on."
"The candidate who sent an order to infiltrate the Qin-Qi coalition forces will do whatever it takes to stir up resentment within the Qi army and encourage the Qi army's extravagant style."
"I will report to the king again and ask the king to spend a lot of money to lobby the powerful people of Qi. The land and houses purchased by the soldiers of the Qi army!”
“Another!”
“Reaffirm this to all the generals”
Xiang Yan looked at all the generals. Withstanding the most ferocious attack by the Qin-Qi coalition, the Qin-Qi coalition will get worse next time!”
"Don't fall for the tactics of the Qin and Qi coalition forces."
"Hold on! Hold on!"
"As long as we hold on, our army will surely win!"
Qu Che and all the other generals resolutely handed over their hands: "Wei!"
In order to win, they decided to be shameless!
No matter how much the Qin-Qi coalition scolds them, they will definitely insist on avoiding war.
As long as they insist on avoiding the battle, who can drag them out of Xiapi City? Victory will definitely belong to Da Chu!
......
Just when Xiang Yan was determined to endure the humiliation and endure the heavy burden, a group of soldiers wearing Chu-style leather armor and holding Chu-style weapons spoke of the state of Chu. The Qin-Qi coalition forces in dialect have already crossed the Huaihe River.
"It's so hot!" Peng Yue fanned himself with his helmet, sweat dripping from his body wrapped in leather armor.
Ge Ping took a sip of water and panted tiredly: "It's only May now!"
"I remember that although Guishan in May was already hot, it was still hot. It’s definitely not that hot.”
“Guishan is not far from here!”
Jingpo cut off the thorns blocking the road and said casually: “Be patient.”< br>
"The further south you go, the hotter it gets!"
"Where are you going!"
Ge Ping smacked his mouth: "It's already so hot here, so isn't Helv City Has it become a furnace?”
“The Chu State moved its capital to such a hot place. Isn’t it true that the King of Chu will not be dried by the sun?”
Jing Po smiled: "Helu City is like a turtle mountain, next to a lake, so it is a little cooler than here."
"And the King of Chu has no choice."
"It is better to die in the sun than to be killed."
"If it weren't for the fact that more than 400 miles south of Helu City is the territory of East Vietnam, I would like to come and go. After the battle between Qin and Chu, the king of Chu will continue to move the capital southward!"
After cutting off another thorn, the view in front of Jingpo became empty.
Looking at the city in the distance, Jingpo's eyes were complicated: "Everyone, prepare to fight!"
Beyond the mountains and forests, a medium-sized city stood beside the river.
There are two large characters engraved on the stone tablet outside the city.
Yanling!
Peng Yue took a step forward and stood side by side with Jingpo. He first looked in the direction of Jingpo's eyes from a distance, and then looked at Jingpo in disbelief: "Master Jing Er500 actually brought us outside this important city? ”
“Is it possible that Lord Jing Er500 is in the Qin camp and his heart is in Chu? ”
Jingpo was the only general who had lived in this area, and he was appointed by Ying Chengyu to be the guide.
Although Jingpo was a reduced general, since Ying Chengyu recognized Jingpo, Peng Yue and others also gave Jingpo a certain amount of trust.
As a result, Jingpo actually brought the Qin and Qi coalition forces to such a strong city? !
Jing Po said calmly: "If I want to return to Chu, our army must be surrounded by Chu troops now."
"No."
"If I really want to return to Chu, there is no way our army can get here safely!"
Peng Yue, Huang Kuang and others looked around vigilantly to see if there was any ambush, and finally looked at Jingpo. A bit of trust was regained.
Although Jingpo was a reduced general, Peng Yue, Huang Kuang and others were not from the old Qin.
Why don’t you laugh at the hundred steps you take at fifty steps!
Peng Yue said in a deep voice: "Our army is not good at attacking cities, and we do not have any siege equipment in the army."
"Moreover, our army came on an expedition and it is impossible to break the city quickly."
"Once our army is restrained by the Yanling defenders, Chu troops from all over the surrounding areas will hear the news and come, and they are likely to attack Surround our army and annihilate it!"
"Why did General Jing choose Yanling as the city for our first battle?"
"Does General Jing know what he will do to me if he loses this battle? What kind of blow did the army cause?"
Jingpo replied calmly: "Because Yanling City is the city of Jing's family."
Peng Yue:? ? ?
All the generals looked at Jingpo in disbelief.
Aren’t you the first in line to succeed the predecessor Jing family? Isn’t the Jing family your own family?
Introduce the army into Chu for the first battle, and attack your own family directly?
Filial piety!
So filial!
You are really the filial son of the Jing family!
Jingpo continued to explain: "In the past, Yanling City was just an unnoticed city in the southeast of the Chu State. There was no threat of war and the city defense was weak."
"The Chu State moved its capital to Helv. After the city was built, the Jing family took over many cities as food towns and sent tribesmen to strengthen the city defenses. "
"The patrol layout and city defense weapons of Yanling City were all planned by this general himself."
"And as far as I know, the current Duke of Yanling County is my uncle."
"This person has some abilities, but not much. He is better at governance but not good at military strategy."
“This general believes that the city defense layout decided by this general should never be modified.”
“So although Yanling City is strong, I am confident that I will lead our soldiers to seize it!”< br>
All soldiers: Huh? ? ?
This time, not only Peng Yue and the other two to five hundred masters, but also the middle and lower-level soldiers not far away looked at Jingpo in stunned silence.
Did our generals personally plan the defense of the enemy city?
This is too cruel!
Peng Yue asked hesitantly in a low voice: "Brother Jing, are you sure?"
"We can choose other cities, there is no need to choose Yanling specifically!"
Jing Po said with a smile: "I thought that we should use a great victory to announce our arrival and sound the alarm to the Chu State!"
"I should use practical actions to warn my general. Great Qin’s loyalty!”
“And Yanling City is the best choice”
“My mind has been made, what do you think?”
Peng Yue and Huang Kuang looked at each other.
Even Jingpo himself didn't care, so why were they so coy?
Peng Yue said in a broken voice: "Then fight!"
