Chapter forty-six battle to the death
Lin Jun gathered quickly in the city, and these actions naturally could not escape the eyes of the soldiers of the Si army. The soldiers of the Si army immediately reported Lin Jun's situation to Qian Xiaoxing.
Qian Xiaoxing was discussing future deployment with Sima Yiqing. After listening to the small soldier's report, Sima Yiqing smiled and said, "It seems that Lin Jun can't hold back. If I don't make a mistake in judgment, Lin Jun is ready to break through!"
"Well, I have to break through, otherwise I will have to starve to death." Qian Xiaoxing thought for a while and asked, "Father-in-law, do you think Lin Jun can break through?"
Sima Yiqing thought for a while and said, "The defense of the city gate is generally external. This time, the Lin army attacked the city gate from the inside, which was more difficult to defend. Moreover, the Lin army had 200,000. In the past, it was unlikely to defend it. However, we have the divine power cannon, so it is naturally a different matter. Whether it can be defended depends on the performance of the cannon."
Qian Xiaoxing nodded and said, "The cannons are only effective for medium and long distances. When they are close, they lose their power. However, I can ask the soldiers to prepare more shells and throw them down when they are close."
"King Lin summoned the troops back and gave us a chance to kill them. Whether the Lin army can be wiped out depends on this battle!" Sima Yiqing felt the importance of this battle, and his expression became solemn, and continued: "Son-in-law, Lin army fights trapped beasts, and its combat effectiveness is unusual. Let's go and prepare quickly!"
"It's finally time for the decisive battle!" Qian Xiaoxing became excited and immediately called Lu Shengzhong to deploy defense together.
After spreading out the map of Qi Capital, Qian Xiaoxing asked: "Father-in-law, you have rich combat experience. How do you think Lin Jun will break through?"
Sima Yiqing looked at the map and said, "If I were Lin Jun, I would naturally concentrate my troops to break through in one direction. If the troops break through on all sides, there would be no chance of dispersing the troops."
Lu Shengzhong nodded and said, "I think so too, but in which direction will Lin Jun break through?"
Sima Yiqing pointed at Qidu North Gate with his finger and said, "The North Gate is a big road, and most of the cities above it belong to Lin Country. If Lin Army can break out, it can replenish food and grass in these cities. I guess it is more likely to go in this direction."
Qian Xiaoxing also agreed with Sima Yiqing's analysis and said, "So, we have 120,000 troops, each of the other three city gates is 20,000, and the north gate is 60,000."
"Yeah, I think it's OK!" Sima Yiqing nodded.
When the Lin army gathered its troops, the Si army immediately deployed. Sixty thousand soldiers detoured from outside the city, and the troops were in place at the north gate, and they also transported a large number of shells to the city wall, preparing to defend the north gate.
As it was getting late, the Lin army had already assembled, and the Si army was ready. The decisive battle was about to come, and the atmosphere became tense, and the battle between the two sides was about to break out.
Watching the sunset gradually set, Qian Xiaoxing, Sima Yiqing and Lu Shengzhong all came to the North Gate to command the battle himself. It can be seen that the importance of the battle and whether Lin Kingdom can be eliminated depends on this battle. Everyone dare not take it lightly.
Lin's troops gathered in the middle of Qidu City. Seeing that it was getting dark, Lin raised his hand and shouted: "The survival of Lin's country depends on this battle. I would rather die on the battlefield than be a slave to the country. Let's fight!"
The Lin soldiers rushed out immediately, but the direction they rushed to was not the north gate, but the west gate.
"Boom!" The Si Jun on the west gate saw that Lin Jun entered the attack range and immediately fired.
Hearing the cannons from Ximen, Qian Xiaoxing couldn't help but wonder. Lin Jun actually broke through to Ximen, not the north gate he guessed. Fortunately, Ximen still had 20,000 troops to withstand for a while, so that the reinforcements could have time to arrive.
The sound of cannons in Ximen became increasingly dense. Qian Xiaoxing said: "Father-in-law, Lin Jun broke through to Ximen. King Lin was indeed cunning. Does he know that we have arranged heavy troops to defend at the North Gate?"
"No..." Sima Yiqing felt very strange and said, "We dispatched troops outside the city, which is impossible for Lin Jun to see. Moreover, the Ximen is just a small road, and there are only a few small cities in the past. Even if we break out, we can't replenish much food and grass. Is King Lin stupid?"
Qian Xiaoxing said anxiously: "No matter whether King Lin is stupid or not, we should add troops to the West Gate."
"Let me see if you're waiting." Sima Yiqing raised the telescope and saw that Lin Jun in the city had raised the torch, and there were red dots in the middle of Shandu City.
Qian Xiaoxing was afraid that Ximen would not be able to defend. Although he was worried, he had to wait for Sima Yiqing's result. Sima Yiqing looked at it for a while and said, "So that's how it is!"
"How is it?" Qian Xiaoxing asked hurriedly.
Sima Yiqing pointed to Lin Jun in the middle of Qi's capital and said, "If Lin Jun was determined to break through the west gate, then these Lin Jun should not be in the middle of the city, but should be approaching the west gate. Now staying here, there is only one possibility. Lin Jun played a tactic of vocalizing the west to attack the north."
Qian Xiaoxing then understood and said, "Sing the West to attack the North! It seems that King Lin is still a bit strategic. He expected that we would arrange heavy troops to defend at the North Gate, and tempt us to go to the West Gate to reinforce and turn to attack the North Gate."
Sima Yiqing smiled and said, "It's a pity that King Lin is still a little tender. Lin Jun arranged in the middle of the city exposed his intentions. Son-in-law, let's wait here. After a while, Lin Jun should come here."
Qian Xiaoxing said with admiration: "Fortunately, my father-in-law is here, otherwise I might have fallen into the trap, because this battle is too critical. The more critical it is, the more cautious it will be, and the enemy will easily exploit loopholes."
As soon as he finished speaking, the torches of Lin Jun in the city began to move and quickly came towards the north gate. Qian Xiaoxing was holding a lighter in his hand and was the first to ignite the Shenwei cannon fuse beside him. The shells fired exploded, and the torches suddenly disappeared.
"Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Qian Xiaoxing shouted, and the divine cannon on the city wall launched an attack, killing Lin Jun fell in pieces.
King Lin knew that if his tactic of the sound of the west attack on the north was successful, there would be no time left for the Lin army. As time delayed, reinforcements from other city gates could arrive, so this battle could only be decided quickly. Although the cannons in the north gate were bombarded fiercely, King Lin also commanded the soldiers to charge towards the north gate.
Lin Jun soldiers faced the shelling with flesh and blood but did not stop. One group fell down, and the second group rushed up immediately and stepped on the corpses of their companions to move forward bravely.
The location on the city wall is limited, and the Si Jun cannot place a large number of Divine Power Cannons. In front of Lin Jun, who is not afraid of death, the Divine Power Cannons seem to be powerless, because every time a shot is blasted, it takes one minute to load the shells. At this time, Lin Jun has already rushed a lot.
Lin's soldiers shouted for charge, and after several ups and downs with the bronze sword, they rushed to the bottom of the city wall. The Si army was ready and ignited the shells and threw them down. Lin's army, who had just rushed to the side of the city wall, was not eliminated for a moment.
"Roar!Roar!Roar!" King Lin roared loudly.
The Lin soldiers also knew that if they could not rush out, they would have to die, so they worked very hard. The second wave of soldiers rushed under the city wall again, and a group of shells were killed again. The slightly injured Lin soldiers were immediately eliminated by the archers on the city wall.
Wang Lin thought that the cannon of the Si Jun was useless when rushing to the city wall, but he didn't expect that the Si Jun could drop the shells directly. Wang Lin said, "It's a victory to rush up to the city wall. My Lin army has no cowards, so rush for me!"
