The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"You can't take it lightly, you have to be on guard at all times, just in case something happens, that's all right, you stay here and watch, Dad is going to rest!" After Qiu Yixiao instructed, he walked down the Great Wall and went back to his tent to rest. up.

When a person is old, his physical strength is exhausted quickly. After all, has he practiced martial arts?

At noon, three miles west of Huangshi Pass!

After half a day's journey, the [-] Qin troops finally came to Huangshi Pass. After arriving at the designated location, the whole army began to set up camp and set up siege equipment. In less than half an hour, white tents were located west of Huangshi Pass. Set up at three miles!

At the same time that the Qin army set up camp, Jin Emperor Min Ziying also led his generals to the tower of Huangshiguan. Daying, then turned his head to Liu Sandao who was beside him and said: "General Liu, count how many tents there are in the Qin army's camp!"

Liu Sandao was a little puzzled, and didn't understand why the tents of the Qin army's camp were counted, but the emperor's word was his will, Liu Sandao didn't dare to ask more questions, he could only obediently follow what Jin Emperor Min Ziying said, seeing Qin The army camp is full of tents, Liu Sandao's scalp is numb, this will be counted, when will it be counted!

Chapter 555 Battle of Yellowstone ([-])

Alas, counting the Year of the Monkey and the month of the month, we have to count!

"You guys do the math too!" Jin Emperor Min Ziying didn't let Liu Sandao do the math alone, otherwise he would have to do the math alone, I really don't know how long it will last.

The generals divided their labor and worked together to calculate. Fortunately, the tents of the Qin Army camp were neatly arranged, so it was not difficult to calculate. After an hour of careful calculation, it was concluded that the Qin Army camp had a total of [-] tents!

"Your Majesty, there are [-] tents in total!" Liu Sandao reported the total number to Jin Emperor Min Ziyi!

"Sixteen thousand tents!" Jin Emperor Min Ziyu murmured and repeated, "According to the fact that one tent accommodates five soldiers, ten tents are equivalent to fifty soldiers, one hundred tents are equivalent to five hundred soldiers, and one thousand tents are equivalent to five soldiers. One tent is [-] soldiers, [-] tents is [-] soldiers, [-] tents is [-] soldiers!"

"I know how many troops the Qin army has, a total of [-], and the Qin army camp does not have a large number of horses, which is enough to show that the Qin army has no cavalry!" Jin Emperor Min Ziyi said solemnly.

The emperor is worthy of being an emperor, he can always think of a way to solve the problem, calculate the camp account and calculate the opponent's military strength, and can also rely on the lack of a large number of war horses in the Qin army's camp to infer that the Qin army has no cavalry.

When the generals heard these words, they all showed shock, and the admiration in their hearts flooded like a torrent of water, and it was out of control. My majesty is too powerful!

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

"Your Majesty Shengming!"

All the generals bowed down and shouted, unable to bear the flattery!

A sense of arrogance also rose from the bottom of Jin Emperor Min Ziyi's heart, and he couldn't help but straighten his back. I am worthy of being me, so powerful, I even admire myself, so awesome!

"We now have an army of 30, and the Qin army has only 45 troops, which has an advantage in strength. We have an important area of ​​Huangshi Pass, which is the defender, and occupies a geographical advantage. The recruitment of troops in the counties of the Jin Dynasty is still going on. The young and strong recruited will give priority to supplementing Huangshiguan, and our troops at Huangshiguan will be able to reach [-] by then, so we will have the best time, place and people in Dajin!"

"If this battle is defeated, what face is there to go back alive!" Jin Emperor Min Ziying said without expression, with a hint of murderous intent in his tone!

"This battle must be won! It must be won!" All the generals shouted in unison with awe-inspiring fighting spirit!

At this moment, they felt that Da Jin could do it again!

"Long live the Great Jin! Long live Your Majesty! We must win!"

"Long live Da Jin! Long live! Long live!!"

"Long live Your Majesty! Long live! Long live!!"

"Must win! Must win!!"

Under the leadership of the generals at all levels, the [-] Jin troops on the city tower raised their arms and shouted loudly, shouting in unison, the morale of the entire army was also rising wildly, and the majestic fighting spirit of the Jin army also swept across the city. It opened, which surprised Qin Jun who was three miles away!

"Oh, the morale of the Jin army is good!"

"It's shouting for victory again, and I'm not afraid of being ashamed!"

"That's right, the Jin army has fought against our Qin army several times, and every time we have lost a lot, and every time we have won more with less, they beat them crying!"

"Catch them alive, and take them to build roads and canals!"

"Forget it, I heard that the water conservancy and road projects in various places have been completely completed a month ago, and my father has already returned home to farm!"

"Your Majesty is really wise and mighty. At the beginning, it took me more than ten days to go to a distant relative's house. Now it only takes half a day to get there. There are many detours. There is a direct road and a canal. My family lives in a mountain nest. Every time I irrigate the field, I have to go down the mountain to carry water, and carry it up the mountain in buckets, which is a waste of time and manpower. Now that it is done, the canal has been built, which saves a lot of effort. Just release the water on time every day, and save manpower. Now my family has [-] mu of land, and I have been awarded the title of first-class farmer, and I can go to the government to receive a tael of silver every year!"

"Yeah, my family also lives in a mountain nest, and because of the location, it is always dry. Even if there is a heavy rain, the loess will dry up immediately after a few days. As a result, there is not even an acre of land in our village. It is to go to other people's homes to help others plow the fields and earn a meager income!"

"Now that the canals have been built, there is as much water as you need. Since the 18th year of Shengqin, my village has changed from not having one mu of land to now having ten thousand mu of good land. My family has a full 130 mu of land. Ten taels of silver!"

"Because the family is rich, my eldest brother married one wife and two concubines, the second brother married one wife and one concubine, and the third brother married one wife and three concubines. As for me, I only married one wife. I dare not marry too many. Otherwise, I will marry too many, and I will die in battle, but I will have several widows!"

"Brother, if your family property was placed 20 years ago, you would definitely be the most famous local tyrant. You are so fucking rich. My family only has ten acres of land, and yours is 130 acres!"

"Brother, do you need a younger brother?"

"Tch, what is 130 mu? My family has 560 mu. I was awarded the title of Zhengnongguan Dafu and received 50 taels of silver a year, hehe!"

"This cheap and proud tone, I want to beat him up!"

"And that brother's Tian Duo, slap him in the face, don't let him be embarrassed!"

"My family has no land, but my family has ten houses and two courtyards in Xianyang City. My father is the second richest man in Xianyang City. His family property should be worth a million taels of silver!"

"Your uncle, can you young masters give us poor people a way to survive and inherit the family business at home? Why don't you join the army and compete with us poor people for military exploits!"

"Fuck you, how dare you say that your family doesn't have assets worth thousands of taels of silver? When did people with assets of thousands of taels become poor!"

"What's the point of inheriting the family business? Killing the enemy and serving the country is the kingly way. There are not many young masters who have joined the army. You may pick one out at random, and they are all young masters from a rich family!"

"That's right, Captain Ye is still the eldest son of Ye Dashan, the richest businessman in Shangyang County. General!"

"No, no, no, I can't compete with you in family wealth, and I can't lose to you in military exploits. In this battle, I have to chop off the heads of ten Jin dogs, and exchange them for one of them!"

"Wait a minute, we got off topic, didn't we just discuss the morale of the Jin army?"

"Don't mention it, they are all a bunch of scumbags, probably some Jin soldiers, and some surrendered soldiers who were captured by us!"

When the morale of the Jin army swept across the camp of the Qin army, the generals of the Qin army were surprised, but they soon deviated from the topic and began to show off their wealth. Jun knew that it was estimated that three liters of blood would be sprayed.

Chapter 556 Battle of Yellowstone ([-])

I yelled desperately, just to scare you, but you just ignored it!

Time passed slowly, and it was a moment!

During this period of time, the sun hanging above the sky is already setting towards the west mountain. After another hour, the sun will set, and the night will fall to the world as the sun sets. After several hours, the seven hundred ballistas of the Qin army , [-] kerosene trucks, and [-] catapults have fixed their positions and can launch an offensive to Huangshiguan!

Each ballista needs three siege soldiers to work together, and [-] ballistas need more than [-] siege soldiers. Each kerosene truck and catapult require four siege soldiers to work together. With kerosene trucks and [-] catapults, [-] siege soldiers are needed.

Ten thousand siege soldiers each perform their duties!

Two thousand catapults are placed [-] steps outside Huangshi Pass. If you throw at Huangshi Pass, the [-] steps inside Huangshi Pass are all within the range of the catapults. Two thousand kerosene trucks are also placed [-] steps outside Huangshi Pass. Throwing at Huangshiguan, the [-] steps within Huangshiguan are all within the attack range of the kerosene truck.

The 650 ballistas were placed 350 steps outside Huangshi Pass and within [-] steps inside Huangshi Pass. They were all within the range of the ballista. Whether it was a ballista or a catapult or a kerosene cart, the positions were cleverly placed to avoid the Jin army. Range of siege engines.

It can be said that the Jin army only had to be beaten and had no strength to fight back.

At the forefront of the siege equipment array, Ning Zhaosi stood proudly, looking at the Huangshiguan tower [-] paces away with sharp eyes. A cruel and penetrating smile.

Above the city tower, Jin Emperor Min Ziying and the generals looked dignified, and the soldiers of the Jin army on the tower were all scalp numb. Without it, the Qin army's siege equipment is too much, densely packed. If this hits, oh my god , I dare not even think about it, it's too scary.

"The Qin army's siege equipment is [-] steps away, and our siege equipment cannot touch it at all!" Liu Sandao said worriedly.

Hearing this, Jin Emperor Min Ziyan's heart sank, his brows frowned into the word Chuan, and his expression became more dignified. According to what Liu Sandao said, wouldn't he be the only one to be beaten, and the rest of the generals were also frowning, with dignified expressions .

"Can the Qin army's siege equipment hit so far? Could it be scaring us?"

Among the generals, a middle-aged general said hesitantly.

The name of this middle-aged general is Zong Xianlu, the fifth younger brother of Zong Xianzheng, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and the official worship is a fifth-rank brave general!

When Jin Emperor Min Ziyan heard this, he immediately shook his head and replied solemnly: "Probably not, you see, the Qin army's siege equipment has been fixed, which means that it will not continue to move. Besides, the Qin army scares us at all. It won't have any impact on the situation of the battle, so rule out the possibility of Qin's army scaring us!"

"I heard before that the Ordnance Department of the Qin Empire is very large, with tens of thousands of craftsmen, with powerful craftsmanship, capable of making unimaginable weapons, such as the Yishu crossbow. The Qin army placed the siege equipment Six hundred steps away, it means that it can reach us!"

Although Jin Emperor Min Ziying had never led an army to fight, he also knew that after the siege equipment was fixed, it would basically not move unless the army was dispatched!

"So, don't we have to be beaten?" Zong Xianlu said with a serious expression and worried tone.

Jin Emperor Min Ziying fell silent, his brows fell into deep thought. During the time of contemplation, the generals dared not speak, for fear of disturbing Jin Emperor Min Ziying to think of a way. After Jin Emperor Min Ziying pondered for a while, he said in a deep voice: "I will pass on my will, and everyone on the tower will Pikemen go down to the tower to stand by, and at the same time mobilize all sword and shield soldiers of the whole army to go up to the city wall!"

After contemplation, Jin Emperor Min Ziyi decided to let the sword and shield soldiers resist the siege equipment of the Qin army. After all, the sword and shield soldiers have shields, which can reduce casualties!

"Observe the order!" All the generals bowed down and responded with dignified and respectful expressions.

......

"Captain Ning, brothers are all ready!"

"Just an order from Captain Ning can set Huangshiguan in flames!"

"Lieutenant Ning give the order!"

Just when the Jin Emperor Min Ziying issued the decree, the Qin Army's siege equipment array was at the forefront, and three captains of the siege soldiers walked behind Ning Zhaosi one after another and asked Ning Zhaosi for an attack.

Although Ning Zhaosi is also a captain, Luo Xing handed over the siege soldiers and crossbowmen to Ning Zhaosi's command, so although Ning Zhaosi is at the same level as them, he has greater authority than them and is their superior.

Ning Zhaosi looked up at the sky, and then at the siege equipment behind him. He saw that the throwing objects of the siege equipment had been loaded, and with just one order, the boulders and fire oil tanks could be sent to the Huangshiguan Tower!

"Let go!" Ning Zhaosi waved his hand lightly!

"Obey!" The three captains of the siege soldiers responded solemnly.

"Soldiers! Get ready!"

"Three! Two! One! Let it go!"

The three captains of the siege soldiers immediately conveyed the order to the siege soldiers under their command!

With an order, the siege soldiers who control the ejection of the siege equipment untie the ropes. Without the restraint of the ropes, the elastic ropes pulled to the limit one by one throw the flame jars and boulders into the sky. The crossbow is also operated by the siege soldiers. A volley of arrows was fired, and the target was directed at Huangshiguan Tower!

"Choo Choo Choo!"

"Boo! Hah! Hah!"

Numerous boulders, kerosene tanks, and iron arrows drew perfect arcs in the sky, making a burst of sharp piercing sounds, and two thousand kerosene trucks, two thousand catapults, and seven hundred crossbows were fired at once. What a scene, it was raining all over the sky, it was daunting!

The Jin army on the city tower was almost dumbfounded when they saw the falling objects from the sky. Even the timid people had their legs weak, and Jin Emperor Min Ziying and all the generals also looked terrified!

"Peng!"

The first boulder hit the side of the city tower fiercely, smashing the protective wall next to the city tower directly. For a while, the gravel flew, and many soldiers were hit by the gravel. The impact force brought him flying, and he flew upside down and vomited blood to death!

The soldiers of the Jin army who were hit by the gravel also fell down unwillingly!

"Be careful! Be careful!"

"Scatter! Let the general scatter, don't get together!"

"puff!"

"Peng! Peng!"

"Chirp... Peng!!"

Huge boulders fell on the city tower one after another. I don’t know how many soldiers of the Jin army were smashed to pieces. There were hundreds of holes in the extremely strong city wall. There were also a large number of boulders flying into Huangshi Pass, killing many Jin soldiers who were preparing for battle in the pass. Generals!

What is more terrifying than the boulder is the kerosene tank. Once the kerosene tank hits the tower, it will be shattered, and the kerosene in the tank will be splashed everywhere. The kerosene will ignite when it meets oxygen. The fire engulfed many soldiers of the Jin Army and turned them into people of fire!

Chapter 557 Battle of Yellowstone ([-])

"what!"

"Help, help, come and save me!"

"Water! I want water!"

"Woooo!"

All of a sudden, there were wailings on the tower, and the flames filled the air. Many soldiers of the Jin army who were soaked in kerosene couldn't bear the flames, so they jumped directly from the five-foot-high tower, and many people on fire fled around. Make a terrified cry for help.

"put!!"

"Choo Choo Choo!"

"Boo! Hah! Hah! Hah!"

Qin Jun obviously didn't want to let Jin Jun go so early, and started the second wave of throwing!

In the face of the rain of stones, arrows, and kerosene, the morale of the Jin army was instantly defeated, and the city tower was in disarray. People everywhere were killed by boulders, pierced by iron arrows, or addicted to fire. Corpse!

The Qin army lost more than [-] yuan in just two throws, and the extremely strong city wall became slightly dilapidated!

Jin Emperor Min Ziying, who was hiding under the protective wall, saw the tragic scene in front of him, his eyes were red with anxiety, and there were tears in his eyes. Make people not feel bad!

"Your Majesty, let's take down the city tower!" Zong Xianlu said with a rather frightened expression.

He was really afraid that the Qin army's throwing objects would hit the Jin Emperor Min Ziying. After all, there were too many, and his luck was a little bit unlucky. Death is a certainty, but the way of death is different.
