Chapter 308 Of course hate
"The general's heavy cavalry is really powerful!"
Zhang Tang watched from a distance on the tower.
When we were in Xianyang, the heavy cavalry was only trained normally and had never fought with the enemy on the battlefield. Only now can we understand how effective it is in killing the enemy and how powerful it is.
Seeing the heavy cavalry charging rampantly and unstoppable, Zhang Tang felt that the battle was stable and the enemies outside Yuyang would soon be suppressed and withdrawn to western Liaoning.
The soldiers defending the city of Yuyang became more and more relaxed, because there were not many enemies who could climb up, and there were also fewer attackers. It was enough to throw rocks down, or draw bows and shoot, to drive away the enemies.
While the Qin army's cavalry was struggling to kill the enemy, the Xiongnu cavalry finally arrived.
There are certainly many cavalry in the Huns army.
They found that the Qin army's cavalry was very strong, so they had to use cavalry to deal with it.
"General Meng, I leave the Huns cavalry to you."
Gengwu looked towards the siege ladder and continued: "I will deal with the enemies attacking the city and separate our operations."
"good!"
Of course Meng Tian had no problem. When he saw more than 50,000 Huns cavalry coming towards them, he thought he could fight more with less, so he shouted: "Back off, keep the distance between you and the infantry. The light cavalry will go up first."
Twenty thousand cavalry quickly withdrew from the infantry battlefield.
The light cavalry used the method of flying kites to fight with the Hun cavalry, and Meng Tian led the heavy cavalry in a rampage. Even if there were only 10,000 people, it would not be a problem to cut through tens of thousands of Hun cavalry.
Gengwu's Iron Eagle warriors were also intercepted by thousands of Huns cavalry.
Although the Iron Eagle Warriors do not have as many protections as heavy cavalry, their overall capabilities are stronger than those of heavy cavalry, and they have basically practiced Qi refining.
Except for some warriors who were added later, the other veterans all came out of the fighting.
They kill people very ruthlessly.
The more people they killed, the higher their military achievements were. The horizontal knives in their hands had accumulated a layer of blood on their surface that could not be washed away.
"kill!"
Gengwu took the lead.
He swung the horizontal knife in his hand and killed two people with one blow.
The rest of the Iron Eagle warriors were no less ferocious than Geng Wu. The Huns cavalry who came to intercept were quickly killed, and then they charged into the siege soldiers, also charging rampantly.
Both the Yan army and the Huns were afraid of being killed by the Iron Eagle warriors, and they evaded randomly. The ladders were quickly destroyed, and the two load-bearing logs of the carriage were chopped off, and they collapsed with a loud bang.
On the other side, the light cavalry cooperated with the heavy cavalry to kill the Huns cavalry and the entire army was wiped out.
The enemy troops attacking the city no longer had the momentum they had at the beginning and had to retreat back to their camp.
Meng Tian did not pursue him, and then Gengwu also stopped.
"Open the city gate!"
Zhang Tang said loudly.
They went out of the city, harvested their military exploits, and welcomed Meng Tian and other cavalry into the city. This battle was another great victory.
"Yuyang, we've managed to hold on."
Gengwu smiled after entering the city.
After today's battle, the enemy should not dare to launch another large-scale siege. Before Bai Zhong came, the Xiongnu and Yan allied forces had been defeated one after another. If Bai Zhong came, the end would be even more miserable.
Zhang Tang breathed a sigh of relief and said: "When I first came here, I was under a lot of pressure. Fortunately, you all helped to hold on. Should we attack Liaoxi next, or wait for the general to arrive?"
Meng Tian said: "I suggest you ask the general for instructions before taking action."
"I'll have someone send the battle report to the general."
Geng Wu said.
Other soldiers were cleaning the battlefield outside the city, and sent scouts to western Liaoning to inquire about the enemy's movements.
——
Western Liaoning.
King Yan was walking around the tent happily.
With the help of the Xiongnu, he regained western Liaoning and followed the army from eastern Liaoning to western Liaoning. In his heart, he longed to return to Jicheng, restore the land of Yan, and drive away all the Qin people.
Jicheng is right in front of us, but the progress of the siege is not very good. After fighting for so long, even Yuyang failed to capture it.
The Huns were indeed very strong and ferocious, but they seemed ordinary in front of the Qin army. He couldn't help but feel upset. When could he return to Jicheng?
He even imagined that he would fight all the way to Xianyang, let Ying Zheng watch, and kill the young master Fusu with his own hands to avenge Yan Dan and relieve his hatred. Unfortunately, Yan Dan sometimes had to sacrifice certain people in order to survive.
"Your Majesty, bad news!"
Ju Wu, a veteran of Yan State, walked in in a hurry.
King Yan's heart tightened and he asked worriedly: "What's the bad news?"
"The attack on Yuyang was defeated again. The army has retreated back. We're afraid we won't even be able to take down Yuyang!"
Ju Wu said helplessly: "According to the soldiers who came back first, there is a very strong cavalry in the Qin army. Even war horses can penetrate armor, killing them without the ability to fight back."
King Yan was surprised and said: "War horses can also wear armor. Are Qin's war horses stronger than the Huns' cavalry?"
Ju Wu nodded slightly, it was the Huns cavalry who were defeated and their army had to retreat.
"Isn't my wish to return to Jicheng hopeless?"
Yan Wangxi asked in disbelief.
Judging from the current situation, it is indeed hopeless. Even Yuyang cannot be taken. How to return to Jicheng?
"Over in Qi State, the King of Qi who was imprisoned by Tian Chong suddenly came out of the prison and led his old ministers and old troops to seize power successfully. Now Tian Chong has fled to Rao'an to confront the King of Qi."
Ju Wu changed the topic and said: "Tian Chong not only had to face the King of Qi, but also faced Yang Duanhe of the Qin State. He sent people several times to ask for help from us, but the Huns directly refused, and we never expressed any expression.
, but I can only refuse.”
The Yan State's military strength is so small that it is not enough to protect itself. Sending more people to help Tian Chong will only speed up the process of the country's subjugation.
"Refuse!" Yan Wangxi said.
Ju Wu said again: "The Huns will not give up just like this. Please rest assured, Your Majesty, we will definitely be able to return to Jicheng again."
"Hopefully!"
Yan Wangxi no longer has much hope.
——
Tian Chong is now very confused and worried.
Several batches of people were sent to contact the north, but the Xiongnu and Yan State ignored him, and the pressure became increasing. Fortunately, Qin State kept its troops stationary, but Qi Wangjian did not let him go.
Tian Chong rebelled and usurped the throne, and his reputation was not justified.
King Qi Jian's crusade was a legitimate one. He almost called on all the power of the country to crusade against Tian Chong, which caused some soldiers in Tian Chong's army to be shaken. After all, no one wanted to become a rebel, but he was forcefully suppressed.
At this time, King Jian of Qi decided to go on a personal expedition and led more than 200,000 Qi troops to fight against Rao'an.
"Your Majesty, there is news from Yang Duan and over there."
Hou Sheng said: "They agreed not to use troops against us for the time being."
Qi Wangjian said calmly: "The Qin State wants the widow and Tian Chong to kill each other, and both sides will lose in the end. The greater the chaos in Qi, the happier the Qin State will be. Yang Duanhe is doing this just to see our excitement!"
"Your Majesty is right."
Hou Sheng asked again: "But, are we still going to continue the civil strife?"
Qi Wangjian asked: "The Prime Minister doesn't hate Tian Chong?"
Hate, of course I hate!
King Jian of Qi also hated him, so civil strife was unavoidable.
Chapter completed!
