Zhao Tuo stood in the military camp, looking at the black smoke filling the city in the distance and the raging fire under the smoke.
He once again felt the power of Wang Jian. This old general was really the best general in the world. He could explode a fortified city that was difficult to storm from the inside with just one strategic move.
One count can be worth tens of thousands of soldiers.
All these war strategies are what Zhao Tuo needs to learn.
"Gather, gather!"
General Lu Wu shouted loudly and summoned his hundred men.
The drums are beating in the military camp, and the battle horn has been blown.
"Everyone in Xintun is here!"
Zhao Tuo reported loudly. The first moment he saw the smoke in the city rising into the sky, he knew that the battle was about to begin. He quickly asked his five commanders to gather the soldiers. Now his feeling came true.
"Good Zhao Tuo!"
Lu Wu was overjoyed. He was satisfied with the young camp commander in front of him. He was indeed a person that even General Li liked. His reaction and organizational skills were much better than that of another camp commander under his command.
In comparison, the other village chief is just a stupid pig, and he is still counting people.
The war drums are beating, and the Qin army is about to attack.
Zhao Tuo was slightly excited. He had just been upgraded to the title of Niao Niao. If he could continue to make great achievements in attacking Wuyang this time, he could be upgraded to the fourth level of title.
When the time comes, not only will you be rewarded with land and houses, but you will also be exempted from having to serve once a year.
Not only him, but Hei Butt, Xiao Bai, Xiqi Gu and others were also excited and excited, eager to rush into the city and steal people's heads to be promoted to nobility.
The performance of everyone completely reflected the Qin people's characteristic of being happy when they heard about the war.
However, the order from above was for them to follow the large army into the city.
Be the first to make meritorious deeds?
impossible.
Everyone knows that there is chaos in the city and the Yan army is killing each other. This is the moment when Wuyang City's defense is at its weakest. As long as they charge, they will definitely achieve success.
The main force of the Qin army outside Wuyang City has been besieging the city for nearly a month. The number of casualties and casualties is unknown. All the troops are gearing up and waiting to grab a share of the credit when they break the city.
The thousand men who Zhao Tuo was with were the reserve troops who came from the wounded barracks in the rear to escort the captives of the Yan army.
This kind of opportunity to make meritorious deeds is not available to the main force who have been fighting desperately for a month, so your reserve troops are allowed to take the credit first?
Why.
Although it was a pity in his heart, Zhao Tuo was just a village commander at this time and could not change anything. He could only lead his soldiers and watch from behind as the main force of the Qin army launched a fierce attack on Wuyang City.
I saw building carts and ladder carts being pushed out one after another, and a large number of soldiers followed these siege equipment and advanced towards the towering Wuyang City Wall.
Louche is just like its name. From a distance, it looks like a tall building, almost as tall as the city.
A group of soldiers pushed the wooden wheel across the filled moat to the city wall. It was like building a wooden bridge on top of the city. The first soldiers shouted and jumped off the cart directly onto the city wall.
, and fought with the soldiers of the Yan army who were defending above.
Another type of ladder truck with wheels on the soles is also very easy to use. It is divided into three parts: wheels, ladder body and hook.
The soldiers pushed the wheels to push the ladder truck to the city wall, and then a group of people carried the upper ladder body and set it up on the city wall. There was a metal hook at the top of the ladder, which could hook the city edge. With the hook, the ladder could not be fixed.
It was easy to be pushed down by the soldiers on the wall. After setting up the ladder, a large number of Qin soldiers with excited expressions screamed and climbed up the ladder, jumping into the city wall to kill everyone.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Amid the passionate beating of drums, the Qin army launched a full-scale attack.
In Wuyang City, fires broke out everywhere and fighting was everywhere.
The situation in the city was very bad at the moment. As a young servant in the Rong family's mansion raised his arms and shouted, the wealthy families in the city responded to the call and started a rebellion among the slaves and servants in the mansion. In addition, the common people who were afraid of the Qin army's massacre of the city also followed suit.
The number of people who rebelled was very large.
Moreover, many Yan soldiers who were afraid of death also joined in. Yan soldiers were originally recruited from the common people, and many of them were farmers who went to the battlefield. They had no idea of sacrifice for the country. At this moment, seeing the smoke rising in the city,
The Qin army attacked fiercely outside the city. In order to survive, many Yan soldiers began to defect.
Qin Wuji was neatly dressed and standing under the golden stage with an expressionless face.
"General, the Qin army has begun to attack the city. Now all the wealthy families in the city are rebelling, and most of the common people and soldiers are trapped in it. With the current situation, Wuyang cannot be defended. General, please mount your horse, and we will protect the general and kill him.
Break a bloody path and rush back to Jicheng." The deputy general led the war horse, looking very anxious.
Behind him, there were hundreds of cavalry waiting quietly. These were the last elites of the Liaodong frontier army.
"Go back to Jicheng?"
Qin Wuji whispered in his mouth. He raised his head and glanced at the towering golden platform beside him and the gorgeous palaces on the platform.
Yan Zhao followed Guo Wei and built a golden platform.
When Zhao Xin arrived, Zou Yan came back together.
The king who has made great achievements has raised up the dust with all his strength.
Golden platform.
The beginning of the prosperity of Yan State.
King Yan Zhao bought a horse bone here for a thousand gold, and finally won the all-powerful men from all over the world to follow him.
At that time, the Yan State had Guo Wei, Zou Yan, Wu Leyi, Qin Kai, and Ju Xin.
It can be said that there are many talents and strong soldiers and horses.
Le Yi attacked Qi, and more than seventy cities fell in one fell swoop.
Qin launched an eastward campaign, defeated Donghu and suppressed Korea, and expanded its territory by more than a thousand miles.
The Yan Kingdom reached its peak at that moment.
Now, it is about to perish.
"What are you going to do in Jidu? The only thing that will happen today is death."
Qin Wuji decisively refused. He got on his horse, drew his sword and shouted: "I, Qin Wuji, have been traversing Liaodong with the princes for decades, and I have never retreated in the slightest. I escaped once in the battle of Yishui, and I am already ashamed in front of others. Today
Can An escape again?"
"Qin Wuji will regain his courage in Liaodong today and go out of the city to fight to the death with the old thief Wang Jian. You gentlemen, please follow me and face the national calamity together."
"I am willing to follow the general out of the city and fight to the death with the Qin army!"
The deputy general roared, and hundreds of Liaodong knights drew their swords and shouted: "I am willing to fight the Qin army to the death!"
"Okay! Follow me, everyone!"
Qin Wuji laughed and galloped toward the city gate.
Behind him, hundreds of cavalry followed closely.
Outside the city, Wang Jian stood on his chariot, his black banner fluttering in the wind.
"General, a troop of cavalry has left the city."
The soldiers pointed to Wuyang City in the distance, where the city gate opened and hundreds of cavalry rushed out.
Wang Jian nodded. He looked at the flags moving with the horses in the distance and said softly, "It's Qin Wuji."
"The last general of the Yan Kingdom."
Cavalry charge.
In an era without stirrups, horseshoes, high bridge saddles and other equipment, the cavalry directly attacked the infantry formations, and most of them never returned.
Those elite Liaodong knights screamed and roared, urging their seated horses to crash into the formation of raised spears and halberds.
A mere few hundred Liaodong cavalrymen, facing tens of thousands of Qin troops, were like a cluster of small waves in the Yangtze River, dissipating as soon as they jumped up.
"Oh, what a pity. I wonder who can get the great credit."
Black butt smacked his lips, watching the towering flag of the Yan army fall down, and the cheers of the Qin army shook the sky and the earth.
Zhao Tuo sighed softly.
He knew that as soon as Qin Wuji died, the countdown to the demise of the Yan Kingdom truly began in these eight hundred years.
After Wuyang, there is Jidu.
There are four theories for the address of Huangjintai. Here we refer to "Eight Hundred Years of Yan Kingdom·Construction Industry" to choose the theory inside the capital city of Yanxia.
