The war was raging in the sky at the south gate of Huguan. There were tall high platforms made of earth and stone, with huge trenchers and huge bed crossbows and gun crossbows that were more than five meters wide. The ants-like crowd were mixed with hundreds of moving arrow towers that could accommodate dozens of people standing at the top and a rushing convoy that was more than twenty meters long... The huge rocks of millstone passed by with a terrifying whistling sound. Each time the bed crossbow of more than four meters was fired, the huge "buzzing" sound of the cowhide bowstrings was sensational. Under the cover of dense aerial firepower, Qin soldiers like insects and ants rushed towards the thick walls of Huguan without fear of death. There were shouts of killing, screams, and the sound of the collapse of the city wall.

The siege of Huguan has entered the fifth day today. The Qin army's siege equipment played a huge role. It can be shot into the pass at a high place for a hundred steps. The dense defenders on the city are occasionally smashed into the empty space by huge rocks, or they are pierced by crossbows to bring out a brilliant rain of blood.

Within five days, the city gate was opened several times and was recaptured several times, and the casualties of both sides rose sharply. On the first day, the Yan army suffered more than 7,000 casualties and 3,000 Qin army suffered 3,000 casualties; to this day, the Yan army had 20,000 deaths and 40,000 injuries; the Qin army had more than 10,000 casualties.

Wang Meng did not attack from other city gates, but only concentrated his troops to attack the South Gate. In this way, the 150,000 defenders in Huguan could only concentrate on defending on the city walls of several miles on the south gate line. The formation could not be implemented, and the military strength advantage was greatly reduced.

Seeing this, the general of Nan'an, Murong Yue, who was defending the city, organized tens of thousands of infantry out of the city, trying to break through the Qin army's defense line head-on. However, Wang Meng found out the initiative and not only set up camp on the hillside, but also built solid fortifications in front of the camp. Under the cover of the Qin army's powerful crossbows, the Qin army failed in three out-of-city raids. Only tens of thousands of corpses were left, which rotted in the high temperature and became smelly.

As a result, the Yan soldiers did not dare to leave the city anymore, but only held the city and the two sides were trapped in a fierce siege.

In the south of Jinyang City, Tianlong Gorge. Murong Jia led 150,000 Yan soldiers to rescue Huguan in the rain. Although the scouts sent did not bring back the exact news, based on his years of experience in the war, Huguan must be under attack. The soldiers at the Xiakou Soldier Station reported that there was nothing unusual these days, and Murong Jia also believed that the Qin army attacking Jinyang must have detoured to Huguan.

The 20,000 vanguards drove into the canyon with knee-deep water. Murong Jia was cautious and ordered to follow up after halfway through the vanguard. Everyone was moving forward, cursing the ghost, God, raining for more than twenty days, as if God had been poked a hole by something, and it was not stopped.

Murong Jia remained silent and rode his horse forward with frown. Suddenly, shouting horns came from the front. Hundreds of people in the vanguard unit retreated and shouted: "There is an ambush! There is an ambush ahead!"

Murong Jia's heart skipped a beat, and the thing he was most worried about happened.

The canyon is close to the southern end of the world and has now become a hell on earth. As soon as the 20,000 Yan troops entered this area, they heard the horns rising, and the huge wooden and rocks rolling at the top of the canyon mixed with sudden rain pouring down.

Soon the road behind was cut off, and more than 10,000 people were trapped in this narrow canyon, baptized by giant trees and rocks in the sky. The Yan soldiers lay arrows in a daze, but the gorge was high and the walls were high, and half of the arrow could not be hit by the Qin army. Within only half an hour, more than 10,000 Yan soldiers died here, and this canyon was completely blocked.

Murong Jia commanded the panicked soldiers to withdraw from the canyon and count the number of people. More than 15,000 casualties were killed or killed in just one hour. Even the shadow of the enemy had not seen it, and he was furious.

He had no choice but to retreat into Jinyang City first and discuss countermeasures.

On the third day of the eighth month, the siege entered the seventh day; Wang Meng personally led the remaining 40,000 Qin soldiers to launch the final general attack on Huguan. On the hills, Wang Meng was uniformly armored and horses were aligned, and Zhang Hao, Deng Qiang, Gou Qian, Guo Qing and other generals were all neatly hung and stood on both sides.

The weather was clear and cloudless. The rotten corpses on the battlefield ahead were blowing towards us. The horses sniffed uneasily and shook their hooves. Forty thousand elite Qin troops stood quietly on the slope in a cone-shaped battle formation. Hundreds of arrow towers stood among the crowd, and the archers above were waiting for arrows.

Wang Meng raised the "Qingli" sword and ordered the horns. On the hills, the catapults, crossbows, and artillery crossbows on the high platform were fired together. The arrow tower entered a range of 150 steps under the push of the Qin soldiers. Thousands of rockets burning violently in tinder oil shot into the city of Huguan. Suddenly, under the suppression of siege equipment and the raid of rockets, houses in the south gate of Huguan collapsed, and fires soared into the sky.

The sound of war drums came, and forty thousand Qin soldiers rushed to Huguan without fear of death. Half an hour later, the two-meter-wide city wall of the South Gate collapsed several places under the concentrated attack of siege equipment and the impact of rushing vehicles. At the same time, the South Gate city gate was also broken, and Qin soldiers rushed in like tigers and wolves and rushed into the city.

After a little resistance, the Yan soldiers collapsed. The King of Nan'an Murong Yue wanted to lead the remaining troops to break out of the city, but was intercepted by General Jianjie Deng Qiang. After a fierce battle, the prefect of Shangdang, Murong Yue, was captured alive. From Chen Shi to Wei Shi, the war ended. Except for Murong Yue's subordinates led 50,000 defeated troops to break out and retreat to Luchuan, the remaining more than 60,000 Yan soldiers were annihilated 20,000, and 40,000 surrendered. The corpses were buried everywhere in the city and blood flowed into a stream.

On the fourth day of the eighth month, Wang Meng announced that he would appease the residents in the city, strictly enforce military discipline without any violation, and the people in the city were calm. He ordered a rest for three days. All the surrendered Yan soldiers, except the Xianbei people, were included in the Qin army, and the source of more than 35,000 troops were added. Since then, the Qin army in Huguan has reached 70,000.

On the cliffs on the west side of Tianlong Gorge in Jinyang City, Yang An stood like pine trees. The sky had cleared up, and it had been raining for more than 20 consecutive days. It was also frustrated in the simple shed built by trees. Many people's hands and feet were frustrated. The soldiers took advantage of the weather to clear up and dried their clothes.

Yang An was deeply thinking. The dry food for each person for twenty days was about to be sold out. In just two days, someone had already searched for wild fruits and hunted small animals on the mountain as military rations. This was not a solution. The two outsiders sent to Huguan have not returned yet. I wonder if Wang Meng, the general of the auxiliary country, has successfully captured Huguan. As long as Huguan is broken, his sniper mission has been completed, he can retreat to Huguan to meet.

Since the Yan army died and injured more than 10,000 people in the Gorge the day before yesterday, the enemy has not been able to move. This is not a good phenomenon. With tens of thousands of enemy troops, only 9,000 people would not be able to stop them for half a day if they were not natural dangers. It is estimated that the army led by him has been fighting for more than a month since he entered Yan in July.

Yang An sent an order to strengthen the vigilance at the southern end, and sent five scouts to Huguan again to report the situation. At midnight, the Qin army on the top of the gorge was awakened by the rolling sound of trees and rocks. Under the stars, the dense Yan soldiers were crawling from the northern foot of Tianlong Mountain to the sides of the gorge.

Yang Anmao ordered to seize the danger and defended the enemy. Suddenly, rocks and arrows were rolling down, and countless Yan soldiers were killed and injured. Several cliffs were dangerously broken through. After bloody battles, thousands of Qin soldiers were killed and the Yan soldiers were defeated before they could repel the attack.

Starting from the sixth day of the eighth month, the Yan soldiers used this tactic of climbing and attacking the cliff tops. They attacked dozens of times in four days and left nearly 10,000 corpses. However, the Qin army that was defending the cliff tops had killed more than 6,000 people, leaving only three thousand wounded soldiers. What's more, the arrows and rocks had been exhausted and the food was cut off for several days, and the soldiers were no longer able to fight again. Every time the enemy's charge was interrupted, the soldiers dragged their heavy bodies to cut down logs to resist the enemy.

On the tenth day of August, the enemy attacked again. Murong Jia learned about the situation on the mountain and sent archers to fire rockets to burn the mountain. In the clear weather for days, the oil pine trees on the mountain burned when they encountered fire, and the mountains were filled with smoke and dust, and the heat waves hit people.

Seeing the fire swept with the wind, Yang An knew that the situation was hopeless, he sighed, pulled out his sword and spread it around his neck and said to Mao Dang: "General Mao, I will order you to lead the remaining brothers down the mountain from the southern foot of the mountain to Huguan to meet with the general. When he saw the general, he said, "I, Yang An, have lived up to my trust and have not taken a step back even if I die in the battlefield."
