Chapter 615 City Wall: What do you owe me here? This is actually the power of God!
Witnessed by more than 30,000 Chu troops in the city.
Looking at the 200,000 Qin and Qi coalition troops outside the city.
Facing the first ray of rising sun in the morning.
The outer city wall of Helv City is more than 90 feet long.
Skewed!
Falling! !
Collapse! ! !
"Boom~Long~~~"
The rammed earth city wall overturned into the city along the hollow of the hall below the city.
Zhaocen, Peng Qing and other Chu soldiers standing under the city wall were instantly overwhelmed and did not even have time to say a last word.
The more than five thousand Chu troops standing on the city wall also fell to the ground along with the city wall!
The slower impact gave them a glimmer of hope, and many Chu soldiers were not killed on the spot even if they fell to the ground.
But, is this good news for them?
All the buildings built on the city wall collapsed together and were thrown into the city along with the inertia, hitting the Chu army.
All the ordnance placed on the city wall, such as hammers, rolling stones, tung oil, and arrows, jumped wildly and rushed towards the remaining Chu army and the government palace in the city.
The city wall, which had already suffered the impact of saturated flying rocks, has now suffered this devastating blow, and the internal structure can no longer be maintained.
The collapsed rammed earth wall once again opened a crack.
Then.
A large piece of compacted earth was smashed down into the city!
"Boom~~~Boom! Boom~"
The earth trembled.
The earth dragon roared.
A tragedy as horrific as a local earthquake, going on for a long time!
It was not until more than ten breaths later that a sound that could compete with the dragon's roar appeared in Helu City.
"Clan Chief!!! Many of our Zhao family's good sons! How could it be possible, how could they be so humiliatingly lost overnight! My heart hurts so much!"
"Why is this happening? How could this be happening! This is so obvious The strongest city in the world that we built with our own hands, why did it collapse!"
"Where is the engineer Jingqi? Pull out his nine tribes! The city wall should be buried with him. ! Let all three of their clans be buried together! "
"This is divine punishment! We have known for a long time that Lord Qin Changan is the reincarnation of Zhu Rong, but we have never regarded Lord Qin Changan as the King of Chu. Huangtian Houtu punishes us for opposing the reincarnation of the Great God Zhu Rong! "
"This battle has been a mistake from the beginning. I, the Great Chu, have been abandoned by Zhu Rong and Dashui. I, the Great Chu, cannot win. Please surrender! ! Surrender!”
The cries of shock and despair rivaled the roar of the dragon.
All the Chu troops looked at the collapsed city wall in disbelief.
Many soldiers have seen the construction site of this wall with their own eyes, and some soldiers have even personally participated in the construction work.
They know very well that no craftsman or supervisor dares to make fun of their three tribes. This city definitely meets the standards that a city wall should have.
They couldn't understand how such a strong city wall could suddenly collapse!
They couldn't accept that the greatest support in their hearts had been lost within a few breaths!
In their opinion, this can only be a punishment from heaven!
Stop talking about the Chu army.
Even the Qin and Qi coalition forces outside the city broke out into an uproar.
“The city wall collapsed? Such a big, wide and majestic city wall collapsed?!”
"Are our troops so brave with flying stones? Although it seems that they did not damage the Helu city wall, they caused such serious internal injuries to the Helu city wall!"
"This is definitely not something that can be done by manpower, but in fact This is the power of Heaven!"
Tian Zhen, Tang Jiu and other generals all looked at Ying Chengyu with round eyes.
Even Ren Xiao, Li Xin and other Qin generals looked at Ying Chengyu in stunned silence.
They are all veterans who have been fighting for their entire lives.
What scene have they not seen before?
But they have never seen this scene before!
Facing the shocked, puzzled, and awe-struck eyes, Ying Chengyu smiled: "There is no need to look at me, and there is no need to kneel to the sky."
"These are all point attacks. The merits of all the ministries.”
All the generals suddenly looked at Su Jiao.
Su Jiao raised his chin slightly and said proudly: "Your Majesty once said: Although a fortified city is good, it should be built in a limited way." . ”
“Now, if our troops mess up the terrain, the city will be destroyed!”
The hole attack can indeed be used to conceal and transport soldiers into the enemy city.
But as the city continues to grow thicker and heavier, hole attack will have other uses in the future.
When the cave attack troops hollowed out the space under the city wall, what could they do to repay the soil and support there?
No way to return it!
The city wall will naturally be left open to the enemy and our troops to see!
The reason why Gongsun Zan was defeated in Yijing City in history was precisely because Yuan Shao used a hole attack strategy to dig through the underground space of Yijing City's tower, causing the tower to collapse and Yijing City to fall!
After listening to Su Jiao’s undetailed explanation, Tian Zhen said with emotion: “The Prime Minister Zuo is really...”
After thinking for a while, Tian Zhen couldn't think of a suitable adjective, so he said with increasing emotion: "Fortunately Qin Qi is a friend and not an enemy."
"Fortunately the left prime minister is the left prime minister of Great Qi!"
Tang Jiu and other Qi generals also nodded in unison.
Even if they already knew that Ying Chengyu was good at cunning schemes, so what?
Ying Chengyu’s schemes are always beyond their imagination!
They had no idea how to deal with such an enemy general, so they could only be grateful that this was their ally.
Ying Chengyu's eyes flickered slightly, and he spoke in a deep voice: "Let's save words of emotion and exclamation until after the war."
"This is a great opportunity that is once in a lifetime, and you must not miss it. ."
"Pass this order!"
"Beat the decisive drum!"
"The front, left, and right armies and the five siege forces all attack!"
"Capture the city!!!"
All the soldiers excitedly raised their hands and said: "Wei!" "Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The passionate war drums sounded.
Peng Yue looked back at his soldiers, without saying too much, he just raised his spear high and shouted excitedly:
"Wind!"
Yingbu, Bi Yong and other Qi army warriors were not skilled but they They raised their weapons together with great enthusiasm and roared in unison:
"Wind!"
"Wind!"
"Strong wind!"
There is no strong back nasal sound unique to Qin Opera, which makes the sound of shouting less desolate from the northwest.
But the roars issued by the Qilu martyrs made the shouts more powerful and powerful.
Peng Yue took the lead and ran towards the wall of Helu City, roaring angrily:
"Pao Ze, follow me and charge!"
Yingbu took several steps with his long legs and directly passed Peng Yue, shouting excitedly:
"Charge!!!"
On the left and right of Peng Yue's troops, Huang Kuang, Ge Ping, and Deng Ming were three The department is also running wildly.
Jingpo led more than a thousand elite soldiers from the wealthy clan who had surrendered to charge at the forefront of seizing Helu City!
“First to go! First to go!”
While shouting and shouting, Jingpo stepped on the collapsed city wall!
Although the swaying wall made Jingpo's heart tremble, Jingpo still ran forward firmly until he jumped into the city along the collapsed wall!
"Jing family Jingpo is here!"
"Those who surrender will not be killed!"
The nearby Chu army finally recovered from the emotions of the aftermath of the disaster, and Seeing Jingpo leaping into the city like a divine soldier descending from the sky.
Following closely behind Jingpo were a steady stream of descendants of the Chu clan under the banner of the Qin-Qi coalition!
Chu Jun:? ? ?
What a slap in the face!
With almost no hesitation, the Chu troops all threw away their weapons and knelt down to ask for surrender!
Jingpo was overjoyed when he saw this, and quickly ordered: "Jingluan's troops and Zhaojiong's troops will stay here, and they must guard the entrance to the city for our army."
"The rest of the troops will follow the general to turn westward, aiming to climb the city's horse road."
"Capture the city!"
Under Jingpo's command, a group of noble men shouted in unison: "Capture the city!"
At the same time, the gate tower in the northwest of Helu City.
"Your Majesty!" Xiong Gan shouted anxiously: "The Qin-Qi coalition has entered the city!"
Chu Wangqi's eyes, which had been looking in Zhaocen's direction, slowly focused.
Suppressing the confusion, fear, uneasiness and doubts in his heart, King Chu Qi took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice: "Which army was the first to attack?"
Xiong Gan was silent. After two breaths, he spoke: "Looking at the flag, it should be Jingpo's."
King Chu was slightly startled, and then he laughed: "It was the Jing family's children who were the first to break through the Helu city!"
>
“Huh?”
"Ha!"
The anger in Chu Wang Qi's laughter could not be concealed at all.
Xiong Gan suddenly handed over his hand: "I am willing to lead the eunuch to become the king and get rid of this traitor!"
Chu Wang Qi did not agree, but forced himself to calm down and looked around.
The collapse of that section of the city wall not only killed Zhaocen and other 7,000 Chu troops, but also killed 5,000 defenders on the city, making the Chu army, which was already weak in strength, even worse.
It's more than that.
The outer wall in the northwest direction of Helv City is also the outer wall of Helv Palace.
With the collapse of that section of the city wall, Helv Palace has been completely exposed to the Qin and Qi coalition forces!
After pondering for a moment, King Qi of Chu immediately made a decision: "Send an order to all the defenders to abandon the defense of Helv Palace and retreat along the east gate towards the inner east city!"
"Our army took over Come down and defend the inner east city!”
Xiong dared to promise loudly: "Only!"
The drums were beating and the flags were waving.
But many Chu soldiers looked at each other in confusion after making moves.
"The city collapsed and the enemy army was brave. Can our army really win?"
"Our great Chu has repeatedly opposed the great god Zhu Rong, and now we have been punished by heaven. If our army continues to fight against Zhu Rong, If the great god goes against me, will he be rejected by heaven and earth and not be able to go to hell after death, but become a lonely ghost? "
"Even the sons of the rich clans have surrendered, why do we still persist?"
"If you are brave for the king of Chu, you will be willing to fight to the death, but this king...is it worth dying for you and me? Magnify the king Isn’t it good to be the prime minister of Qin?”
The scene like punishment from heaven and earth gave all the Chu troops a fatal blow from the perspective of belief.
The collapsed city walls and six times more enemy troops made the Chu army, who respected ghosts and gods, completely despair of this battle.
Jingpo, who took the lead in the charge, made them, the grassroots soldiers who clearly had not enjoyed any benefits of the Chu State but were still fighting for the Chu State, like a joke.
Thinking again that even if King Qi of Chu could not become the King of Chu, he could still go to Qin and become the Prime Minister of Qin, all the soldiers of the Chu army could not help but have the same thought in their hearts.
What are they fighting for? And why did he die?
“Dang Cang~”
A crisp sound opened the curtain.
Weapons were thrown away by the soldiers of the Chu army. Their knees were in close contact with the earth, and loud shouts resounded throughout Helu City.
"I'm waiting, please surrender!"
Hearing the cry of surrender that resounded throughout the city, King Qi of Chu was furious, but he had no time to rebuke. He just said in a broken voice: "There is no need to wait for the army."
"Go to the inner east city immediately!"
After saying this, King Chu Qi turned around and was about to leave the northwest gate tower.
However, before King Qi of Chu could reach the stairs, a loud shout came into King Qi's ears from outside the city.
"The Lord of Qin Chang'an, the Prime Minister of Qi Zuo, and the young master Cheng Xi, please answer me in front of the battle array!"
