Chapter 181 Two Offense and Defense 2

"Bang!" With a dull sound, another soldier was hit by a stone from the city head and fell off the ladder. As soon as he landed on the ground, he became a bloody mass. However, other soldiers near him were not able to stop.

Without even looking at him, he filled his vacancy and climbed up. Fusu watched as someone on the battlefield was replaced as soon as someone died. Seeing that one person was about to climb to the top of the city, he was killed by the enemy.

He used sticks and other objects to knock down the city tower, and the flesh on his cheeks couldn't help trembling. He warned himself in his heart that this was a battlefield. As the saying goes, "Kindness does not lead an army." Since he was the leader of an army, naturally he could be angry.

There were too many worries, but on the other hand, he was full of guilt. If it weren't for himself, these soldiers would not have died here at such a young age.

Although Fusu was suffering in his heart, the manpower he needed to use would not stop. Group after group of soldiers continued to kill upwards, stepping on the corpses and blood of their own robes. Now they no longer have the concept of life and death in their hearts.

, there is only one thought in his mind, and that is to capture Xianyang City. An individual's life on the battlefield is so insignificant. Perhaps just to further advance his robe, he can use his body to help him block the falling stones. And

The person holding back has no idea that someone just blocked the deadly weapon for him, because soon, he will sacrifice his life for others.

In this way, with the blood and lives of countless soldiers, the Fusu Army finally slowly approached the top of the city. They only had to climb two more steps to reach the city. But these two steps were blocked by Qin who was guarding the city.

The soldiers defended themselves fiercely. They not only smashed them with stones, but also beat them with sticks. They even threw their whole people outside the city wall to push down the enemies who climbed up. Because they knew that as long as a Fusu army came up,

, then there will be a second and third person coming up, and then their geographical advantage will be completely gone. But although they are desperately trying to knock down the Fusu Army, the Fusu Army's attack speed is still

It was too fast, and there were too many people. Finally, a gap was opened in a corner by Fusu's army. The sergeant rushed forward without saying a word. The knife in his hand danced in a ball, and he slashed at anyone he saw. He knew that he

There is no doubt that he will die, but before he dies, he must help the brothers behind him buy time so that more people can come to the city to kill him.

When the city defenders, who were composed of common people, saw that the city wall they were guarding with their lives was actually attacked, they couldn't help but vent their desperate anger. The weapons in their hands that were slashing at the enemy were also slowed down by half a beat, and they took advantage of this opportunity.

, dozens of Fusu troops jumped from the ladder into the city wall, shouted and charged forward.

Fusu and the generals could not help but breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that after many hardships, someone finally climbed to the top of the city of Xianyang. This would encourage the army to continuously attack Xianyang, and it would be an extremely serious blow to the Qin army defending the city.

, this time, it became easier for them to take down Xianyang City. But suddenly dozens of corpses covered with arrows were thrown down from the breached city wall, but they had just killed them.

The soldiers of Fusu's army. This was beyond the expectations of Fusu and others. They clearly saw that they had been killed, but unexpectedly they were killed and thrown down again in the blink of an eye. Zhang Liang's reaction was the fastest. He sighed: "

What a ruthless Qin soldiers, they actually lured our troops to attack the city and then shot them dead and threw them down. This must have been a huge blow to the morale of our troops."

It turned out that the soldiers had just entered the city and thought that the Qin army would not be too powerful even if it resisted. Unexpectedly, after killing several enemies, they heard the sound of a crossbow machine string pulling not far away.

By the time they made any reaction, those powerful crossbow arrows had already been shot at them, and dozens of people, as well as the city defenders composed of civilians who were fighting with them, were shot dead on the spot.

The original role of those crossbowmen was to supervise the people so that they could not retreat and thus defend the city wall. Unexpectedly, the Fusu army broke through the defense line and came up. At this time, the general was afraid that if a large number of Fusu troops were killed,

I was going to die here when I came up, so

In order to prevent the enemy from attacking again, he decisively ordered the arrows to be fired, regardless of the fact that there were many people in front of him who were guarding the city like himself. After the arrow rain, everyone fell to the ground, and he ordered the generals again.

The corpses of Fusu troops were thrown out of the city to intimidate the enemy.

This was very effective. Fusu and the generals were unable to crack the vicious plan of luring the enemy into the city and then shooting them with bows and crossbows. In addition, their morale was dampened when they saw their own people go up to the city and be thrown down again, so Fusu

Su ordered his troops to retreat and wait for the next day to attack Xianyang. This made everyone in the city breathe a sigh of relief. Although they knew that tomorrow would still be a bloody battle, for them, surviving one more night was also a gain.

Arrived.

The general who ordered a volley of random arrows saw that Fusu's army was so frightened by his move that he retreated. He felt very proud and said to the crossbowman beside him: "It is better to listen to this general and retreat the enemy."

, with just a few arrows, not only can

The danger of destroying the city has been resolved, and the menacing enemy has been forced back. You should learn from me more in the future." Those soldiers praised him hurriedly: "General, what a good method, I admire you." He said proudly.

Laughed loudly.

But he didn't realize that the people guarding the city were staring at him with hatred in their eyes, wishing that their eyes would become sharp arrows and shoot him and his comrades around him into hedgehogs. But in those equipment

In front of the real and excellent Qin soldiers, they could only stare angrily and dare not speak out, let alone take action.

After taking back the troops, Fusu felt a lot of pain when he heard that he had lost seven or eight thousand troops: "If we continue to attack like this, even if we can take Xianyang City, I don't have many soldiers in my hands. How can I fight with Chu again?"

What about the war between Qi and other countries? How can we complete the great cause of the First Emperor and reunify the world? No, we can no longer attack by force, we must find another way to take down Xianyang City at a smaller cost."

Zhang Liang said: "A few days ago, we used the strategy of luring snakes out of their holes, but the Qin army guarding the city was completely unmoved. As for other methods, it was even harder to find. It took the ancestors of the Qin people several generations and hundreds of years to build it.

How can this fortified city be conquered with just one or two strategies? If this is really the case, Qin will not be able to dominate the world."

Fusu knew that what Zhang Liang said was reasonable, but he was still unconvinced and said: "The city was built by people, the people who defended the city are also people, and we who attacked the city are also people, and we are far superior to them in terms of strength. I don't believe it."

There is no good way to capture this city."

When the other generals heard what Fusu said, they also knew that Fusu was not angry for a while and did not take it seriously. They only thought about how to motivate the soldiers to attack the city tomorrow, and at the same time, they had to guard against the ambush the enemy had set in the city.

After everyone left, Fusu was still thinking hard in the tent, pondering the bit of knowledge in his mind that was not enough. "Among the things I know, is there such a situation where it is so difficult to attack the city?

Fusu was thinking as he walked back and forth in the tent. However, they walked for half an hour and still had no clue. In the end, they had to put the matter aside.

At this time, dusk was falling, and it was dinner time. A soldier came in with some noodles and a large bowl of mutton soup. This was Fusu's food for the night. What Fusu ate was only about the same as that of the soldiers.

Their vegetable soup

It turned into broth. Although Fusu once mentioned that he would share the joys and sorrows with the soldiers, eat and live together, Meng Tian and others tried their best to dissuade him. In the end, he had to accept their kindness and serve it with broth. Pick up the mutton leg bone

After taking two bites

, Fusu suddenly thought of the Huns who relied on animal husbandry as their way of survival. I wonder if they are now planning to establish several counties of their own. Then he thought of several nomadic groups that appeared later in history - Turks and Khitans.

, Jurchens, etc. Suddenly something seemed to flash in his mind that could help him break the city, but he couldn't remember what it was. He hurriedly put the mutton leg bone in his hand aside.

Think carefully.

"Turks, Khitans, Jurchens, attack the city." Fusu muttered something, but still had no clue. "Although the Turks were powerful, they did not take over the Central Plains. In the end, they were defeated by the Tang Dynasty. Although the Khitans occupied the northern part of the Central Plains,

, but it was only half as good as the Northern Song Dynasty. The Song Dynasty attacked him more, and it had nothing to do with the siege. Then there were only Jurchens, and then Jin Qing, who took over the world, was

The Central Plains that they were allowed to enter because Wu Sangui opened Shanhaiguan can be removed. The last one is Wanyan's gold. They had conquered Bianliang, the capital of the Northern Song Dynasty. But I remember that Bianliang was opened because the Song Emperor believed the Taoist priests.

After entering the city gate, there will be heavenly soldiers and heavenly warriors to help defend the city. The four gates are wide open, allowing them to drive in before losing the defense. I don't think this will happen in Xianyang City. So what?

Is there anything related to this?" Fusu muttered as he unconsciously picked up the leg of lamb that he had bitten a few times. Suddenly his eyes flashed, and he had already remembered. Where he was

Those who know the official history and unofficial history have heard a legend about the Jin soldiers crossing the Yellow River. That is, when the Jin soldiers faced the Yellow River guarded by hundreds of thousands of Song troops, they tied sheep to drums and let the sheep legs pass.

After beating the drums all night, the Song army fled after hearing the news, and they crossed the Yellow River easily. "Then I can also use this method to disturb the enemy by beating drums at night, as long as the Qin army cannot sleep peacefully for a few nights.

I feel that their combat power will be greatly reduced, and then our army will have a better chance of winning." Thinking of this, Fusu put down the leg of mutton again, got up and went to find Meng Tian and others to arrange the matter.

The soldier next to him watched Fusu pick up and put down the leg of lamb several times, and couldn't help but ask: "Prince, this leg of lamb doesn't suit your taste? I'll have someone make other soups right now." As he said this, he started to ask.

go out.

Fusu said hurriedly: "No, on the contrary, this leg of lamb is exactly what I was looking for. It came just in time." After saying this, he left the confused soldiers and went to find some generals. (To be completed.)
