General Qin

Chapter 48: Taking the Great Wall

The Great Wall of Yannan lies on the north bank of Nanyi River and stretches down the river for 500 miles. Its city wall is roughly made of rammed loess. It is about ten meters high and more than eight meters wide. It is very majestic and cannot be easily attacked. Down.

However, the purpose of this surprise army led by Li Xin is not to take all the five hundred miles of Yannan Great Wall, but to open a breakthrough, take advantage of the opportunity to pierce a section of the Great Wall, and occupy the key points of the Guancheng behind the Yandai coalition forces. Just get out of their way.

The heel army that Zhao Tuo is in is the sharp sword used to open the breakthrough.

"Why are there only so many people? Even if one person goes up and pokes, the head will not be able to get Nai Gong's head."

The black butt behind him complained, but the originally nervous A Niu, the long and short brothers, and others were relieved.

Zhao Tuo looked thoughtfully at the sparse figures on the city wall.

Because the Great Wall is too long, the Yan army will not deploy too many troops on each section of the wall. In particular, another feint of thousands of people attracted the Yan army from the surrounding walls to support, which led to the situation that Zhao Tuo's troops faced. There were only five people in a section of the Great Wall.

Two thousand people beat five people?

In addition, there are tens of thousands of troops behind.

It feels like shooting mosquitoes with artillery.

Zhao Tuo vaguely understood why Wang Jian sent them to sneak around the Great Wall, because the difficulty of this detour was not high at the beginning, and it was just for these new recruits to get used to it.

Having seen blood on the battlefield is completely different from an army that only trains in the barracks all day long.

And climbing the Great Wall is only the first step. Next, they have to fight along the Great Wall for more than ten miles, capture the important pass city where the Yan army crossed the river, cut off the back route of the Yan Dynasty coalition army, and chase and kill the defeated army. That's where the difficulty lies.

It is easy at the beginning, but difficult later.

"attack!"

Although there were few enemies on the Great Wall, the school captain Huanzhao still gave the order to attack sternly.

The drums of war with the army sounded.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom...

Amidst the continuous sound of drums, the vanguard centurion who received the order rushed forward carrying five bamboo ladders accompanying the army.

Although these bamboo ladders are crude, they are light and useful. They are all built according to the height of the Great Wall.

One team dies and the other goes on.

Of course, the current situation is useless. The five Yan soldiers on the Great Wall are not fools. Seeing thousands of people swarming out from the opposite side, they don't know that they have fallen into the trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain.

These people ran away.

After Zhao Tuo and others climbed the ladders up the city wall in order, not to mention taking the heads to make military exploits, there was not even a single person in sight. On the contrary, although the thousand-man team responsible for the feint attack had many casualties, many of them were able to obtain military merit.

"Go ahead to support the feint attack, and at the same time block the reinforcements coming from the north. Your troops will stay to support the commander's army, and the rest will fight along the city wall, and charge forward as much as possible before the enemy intercepts them!"

"only!"

Huan Zhao assigned tasks according to the established plan, and Zhao Tuo's department was responsible for advancing.

"Second and third sons, today is the time for meritorious service and honor, follow along."

General Lu Bai shouted excitedly, commanding a hundred people under his command to follow the vanguard to march quickly.

On the Great Wall, one road goes to the end, only the brave who meet on a narrow road wins!

However, the Qin army did not attack the Great Wall of Yan in a swarm. Instead, they lined up in five rows according to hundreds of people, and marched side by side in the same row. The front held spears and the back held short soldiers. .

Perhaps because of the sudden attack, all the Yan soldiers encountered on the way fled. In a short time, the Qin army rushed nearly a thousand meters on the Great Wall.

But soon, they encountered resistance from the organized Yan army.

Dozens of Yan soldiers were standing outside a beacon fire, holding bows and crossbows, waiting in full force.

In an instant, arrows flew over, and the unlucky ones in the front hit the ground in an instant, but the following comrades didn't have time to rescue them, but jumped up from them, or stepped on them directly.

Amidst bursts of screams, they rushed straight into the array of Yan soldiers.

Fighting hand to hand, flesh and blood flying.

In this way, the first group of people fell or were injured and lay by the wall, and the rest immediately filled up. With the support of the follow-up 10,000-strong army, the entire Qin army surged on the Great Wall like a surging torrent, breaking through all obstacles along the way, and went straight to the Fenmen Pass where the Yan army crossed the river.

Not only on the Great Wall, after capturing a pass in the middle, the follow-up reinforcements went down the wall from there and marched directly along the inner edge of the city wall. Because there was no Yan army on the ground to block them, their advancing speed was actually faster than the same troops on the Great Wall. Robes are much faster.

If you look down from a high altitude, you can clearly see that the black torrent is divided into upper and lower branches, rushing all the way along the Great Wall.

The establishment of the Qin army is arranged in the order of heavenly stems, A, B, C, D, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Rengui.

Xintun Gengshi belonged to the lower rank of the thousand people, so when all the comrades in front were killed and injured, and when it was Gengshi's turn, they had already rushed to the 500 meter mark of Guancheng.

There are thousands of Yan troops stationed here, firmly guarding the Guancheng here, as a retreat for the Yan Dynasty coalition forces.

But at this moment, they all looked terrified.

It is obvious that the two armies are in a decisive battle in the west of Yishui, but how come the Qin army attacked from the northern Great Wall, and at the same time, there were also Qin troops rushing to kill inside the Great Wall.

Beacon fires are everywhere, and black armor is everywhere.

"kill!"

On the Great Wall, Lu Wu, a general with short soldiers, rushed into the enemy's formation first, and Liang Guang, the head of Xintun, also rushed to kill with a roar.

As the lower-level military officials of the Qin army, the generals and the chief of the village must take the lead, especially leading a group of new soldiers. If even you, a general, are timid, how can you let the soldiers be brave.

"Masters, follow me!"

Zhao Tuo also roared loudly, and stepped forward with his sword in hand.

Ji Shishichang in front of him had just been pierced by a Yan soldier with a spear, Zhao Tuo used the body of his robe as a cover, jumped out from the side of the wall, and stabbed at the Yan soldier holding the spear with the Qin sword in his hand.

"ah!"

The Yan soldier screamed, but the weapon in his hand was still stuck in the corpse, and he was unable to block it for a while, and was stabbed in the throat by Zhao Tuo's sword, causing blood to flow wildly.

"It's time to upgrade."

Zhao Tuo was overjoyed, but immediately behind him came a cry of black buttocks.

"A Tuo be careful!"

Zhao Tuo was reminded, and fell back, narrowly avoiding the spear point.

Yan Zu, who was holding a spear, was taken aback for a moment, and then, he saw a thin figure rushing towards him like a ghost.

Shejian!

He was thin, but very strong, and he stabbed the Yan Zu's chest with one sword, killing him.

"Come on!"

Zhu, who has always been simple and steady, seemed to be stimulated. He roared, put a picked up Yanjun shield in front of him, and rushed forward.

He was already strong and powerful, with a height of eight feet, but now he was charging, like a tank running wildly, with an indomitable momentum.

Behind Zhu, Xiaobai, Heizhi, and Gengshi's other people also roared and rushed forward.

In the rear, more Qin troops continued to come.

At this moment, Zhao Tuo was surprised to find that the Yan army who had been stubbornly resisting in front seemed to have all their courage suddenly taken away. Except for those who were still fighting at the front line, the Yan army in the rear began to flee.

"Defeated!"

"Yan Kingdom is defeated!"

Paze from behind shouted excitedly.

Zhao Tuo stood at the top of the city, looking west.

On the west bank of Yishui, smoke and dust billowed.

Countless soldiers threw away their helmets and armor, and fled in a hurry.

The big flag embroidered with the word "Swallow" was thrown on the ground, and was trampled by countless people immediately after.

The coalition forces of the Yan Dynasty were defeated.
