It’s not that the Di Qin brothers didn’t work hard enough, nor that they lacked ability. It was actually that they couldn’t resist the physical reaction.
The sound was really terrifying, and by the time they arrived on the Yecheng battlefield, Di Qin's brothers had already gained a deep understanding of the power of this artifact.
This thing is so terrifying!
As long as you are affected by it, you will be killed or injured, and you will not be able to escape!
I can't even save him.
Therefore, once the artillery exploded, the following Qin soldiers no longer dared to rush forward, but what about those Qin soldiers who risked their lives and planned to give General He a fatal blow?
No need to think about it.
This time, I got what I wanted!
I really lost my life.
"What's wrong with you?"
"Where to throw it!"
After a while, General He emerged from the pile of loess. A few soldiers came forward and helped the old man up, but he cursed.
Seeing General He's embarrassed look, the soldiers couldn't help laughing.
"General, we didn't mean it, just forgive us!"
"I was in a hurry and didn't see clearly."
"Besides, this artillery was not fired by us, but by the cavalry behind. If you want to blame it, you have to blame them."
General He was blinded by the bomb just now. He would curse anyone he caught. Although the impact of the artillery did not hurt his flesh, it still shocked him.
Even his ears and eyes were full of dirt.
The location where the artillery exploded was quite considerate. It was right in front of General He, not far nor close.
Due to the limited power of the primary artillery and the uneven weight of the gunpowder filled, although General He was right in front of him, just because of the slight difference, he could not be harmed.
On the battlefield, I don't know whether it is a blessing or a misfortune that something like this happens.
However, what is certain is that, at least at this moment, it is very lucky for General He himself and the entire Jin army.
Reading with rice balls
General He, who was still angry just now, now realized that it would be great if he could save his life, what more could he ask for?
What are you waiting for?
The situation on the battlefield was changing rapidly. Since he was not dead, he had to continue doing business. His subordinates brought him another horse, and He Wuji turned over and jumped on it.
It fully showed that there was no injury at all on his body.
Very neat.
Finally getting rid of Qin Bing's entanglement, He Wuji was satisfied and was about to move on, seizing the time to deliver the news.
Unexpectedly, after just a few steps, he was forced to stop.
"Zeng Jing, why are you here?"
"What happened?"
Zeng Jing was Wang Mi's personal bodyguard and most capable assistant. He was almost always with Wang Mi.
So, when Zeng Jing appeared here alone, He Wuji was stunned immediately and had a bad feeling.
He naturally thought of some bad things.
He Wuji was so nervous that he also made Zeng Jing nervous. He was not nervous at all originally.
He just came to deliver a message, but he didn't get to the point for a long time. Two people, you looked at me and I looked at you, each had a small calculation in his mind.
Fortunately, Zeng Jing's mind was still not completely stupid, and he came to his senses after a moment.
"It's okay, Wang Shilang, nothing happened to him. The battle at the South Gate is very fierce, and our army has made a certain breakthrough. What the Shilang means is that he wants General Liu to support him. The next step is to start attacking the city!"
"Attack the city?" He Wuji's eyelids twitched, and his face actually turned happy.
Are you that excited?
Zeng Jing was confused by him.
He Wuji clapped his palms in the air and said with a big smile: "Great!"
"That's exactly what I meant."
"To tell you the truth, we have also received important news here, which we want to pass on to you. It is related to the overall situation!"
Is there such a thing?
Wang Mi wanted to attack the city, and Liu Yu also wanted to attack the city. The two brothers, one from the south and the other from the north, had no contact at all before, but they unconsciously thought of going together.
This is the so-called tacit understanding!
What are you waiting for?
Since a breakthrough has been opened on the south city wall, there is no need to fight Zhang Hao at the north gate.
What the Jin army wanted was just the city of Yecheng. They did not want to prove their excellence by completely defeating the Qin soldiers.
Those were all done by stubborn people. The strength of the Jin army no longer needed to rely on those vain people.
After all, they are already so good.
What does the Jin army need most now?
He is a shrewd brain, forward-looking enough to be able to decide the next strategy for the Jin army.
Let the brothers move forward peacefully along this road until they reach the final victory. As for whether they can achieve the minimum consumption, this is not something Wang Mi can decide.
It's not even visible at the moment.
Since he wanted to see Wang Mi, of course he had to go to the south gate. He Wuji and Zeng Jing quickly reached a consensus.
The two gathered their existing forces together and turned back together.
At this time, what is Wang Shilang, who has been fighting hard at the south gate, doing? How is the battle going?
After the double-layered fence was breached, Wang Mi followed the soldiers and rushed into Yecheng. What appeared in front of them was not an orderly market, but another city gate surrounded by a low wall.
Of course, there are still some Di Qin soldiers who are still fighting hard.
Seeing such a scene, Wang Mi was not surprised at all. He had already expected that there would be more than one wall in Yecheng.
It must be a double-nested pattern.
Of course, it is not the Di people's credit that Yecheng can reach such a scale. As a strategic location that was once regarded as the capital, Yecheng's former glory can actually be seen before our eyes. After all, Cao Ah Man has not been dead for a long time.
, and from that time on, the entire Central Plains was only truly stable for a few decades.
In other words, so far, some of the large-scale and prosperous cities in the Central Plains are not the result of recent construction.
Their glory and prosperity are all the result of previous generations. The same is true for Yecheng.
As a former ancient capital, Yecheng chose a double-layer nested building model to enhance the defense of the outer city while ensuring the safety of residents in the city. This was something Wang Mi had long expected.
He didn't even need to send spies to investigate in advance to be sure.
And now, the situation before us proves that Wang Shilang has no plans left.
Although Zeng Jing rushed to deliver the letter, Wang Mi was not alone. Just now, Wei Yongzhi, who performed extremely well, also came to his side.
Ever since he performed well in that battle just now, Lao Wei's whole aura has changed, exuding an aura of high spirits and progress from the inside out.
The overall state of the person is moving upward, which is very obvious.
Seeing new obstacles appearing in front of him, Old Wei was eager to try: "Wang Shilang, what should we do next?"
"Should we rush in, occupy the market, and eradicate the remaining Qin soldiers in the city?"
Kill them all, this is what Wei Yongzhi believes in now.
Compared to Wang Mi, those who came to the south hated Di Qin even more deeply. They joined the army just to be able to kill their enemies with their own hands.
Now, seeing that these evil beasts of Di Qin are about to be doomed, how can we not rise up and add a handful of dirt to these evil-doing things, and at the same time, step on them?
Although Wei Yongzhi was impatient, including the brothers in the Jin army behind him, all of them couldn't wait, Wang Mi still had his own rhythm.
And, he was really not in a hurry.
The situation can already be seen. The advantage lies with me. After defeating this group of Qin soldiers, Wang Mi feels more confident.
They have been unable to organize an effective counterattack. As for defense, they can continue as long as they still have people.
The most important thing is how powerful it can be.
The mantis arm is just a chariot!
Although he has not yet fought against the Qin soldiers in the city, Wang Mi has already made a decision. The Qin soldiers in the city are only so powerful.
Why is Shilang Wang so confident?
Could it be that he is a tough talker?
Of course it’s impossible!
How can an ordinary divine fortune teller be compared with Wang Shilang? He is a great magician and a time traveler.
It is much more effective than the ancient Taoist priests who held a bamboo pole and hung a white cloth strip, and only knew how to cheat and deceive.
Everything is based on rational judgment. If the Qin army still has some strength left, why not rush out of the city gate now and fight to the death with the Jin army?
The ancient city structure was completely different from modern times. It looked like a city, but in fact it was just a relatively fixed area wrapped by a number of city walls, all roughly in the shape of a square, front, rear, left and right.
Once the outer city is breached, it will be difficult to reverse the defeat by engaging in so-called street fighting and fighting hard inside the city.
Generally speaking, if you can keep the enemy out of the city, you should do your best. This can also be seen how critical the situation was when Yu Shaobao defended the city of Beijing in later generations.
Ahem...
The tiles were beaten to the door of Desheng!
If Yu Shaobao hadn't raised his arms and turned the tide, he wouldn't have said anything. If he entered the city with bricks and tiles, wouldn't he be walking on flat ground?
Now, the situation faced by the Jin army is similar.
Attacking a city is actually a very simple matter. You just need to rush in with your troops and horses. The defense in the city is about that, and it won't be of a high level.
The Jin army can handle it completely.
What Wang Mi had to consider was how to capture the city while minimizing casualties and minimizing losses.
And many things, the thoughts swirling in his mind, if he told them to Wei Yongzhi and others, they probably wouldn't be able to understand them.
Now Wang Mi has also developed skills and learned the skills to communicate with these warriors. He does not need too many explanations, he just needs to tell them the orders clearly.
Victory is what they care about.
As long as you can win, it doesn't matter what your tactics are or how you plan, just shout that the general is really a god, and that will solve the problem.
Wei Yongzhi shouted desperately, but Wang Mi remained unmoved.
"Yongzhi, don't worry, wait a little longer, there will be news from Zeng Jing soon."
As soon as he heard that he couldn't fight yet, Wei Yongzhi's head immediately dropped, and he looked downright dejected.
What else is there to wait for?
There is no need for so much planning to deal with the evil beasts of Di Qin. Just charge and kill them all, and they will naturally be convinced.
This city belongs to them. It has nothing to do with the Di people. They are just some foreign invaders.
Now that the army is heading north, they should take it back personally. Justice is on their side.
In fact, there is another person in this team who is much more anxious than Wei Yongzhi, but at this moment, his mood is very calm.
There was a usual smile on the baby's face, beaming with joy, and the excited eyes seemed as if this was not a battlefield, but a wedding scene.
That strange person is none other than He Mai.
If not him, who else could it be?
And He Mai's smile now looks like that of the groom attending a wedding.
Not in a hurry.
You really shouldn’t be in a hurry, it’s all here before your eyes, the key is to clean it up as quickly as possible, it must be clean and without leaving any future troubles.
Winning the battle is the goal, but it is never the only goal. How to fight a hearty and beautiful battle is the pursuit.
Although he did not pass Qi in advance, He Mai believed that Wang Mi must be thinking the same way at this moment.
However, it is never that easy to win a beautiful battle.
Not only do you need to be strong, but you also need the enemy's cooperation.
You see, Di Qin's state will be very cowardly and rotten, and he will be allowed to be rounded and crushed by the Jin army?
Soon, the news that the southern city wall was breached by the Jin army reached Zhang Hao's ears, and Zhang Hao immediately became angry.
As the only general in Yecheng who could take action and have the final say, Zhang Hao never expected that Nancheng would be lost so quickly!
Once the Jin army breaks through Wengcheng, they will find that there is a smooth road in front of them.
Like many ancient cities, the urban layout of Yecheng is high in the north and low in the south. Important buildings in the city and dignitaries are concentrated in the north, including more villagers, who are also concentrated in the north city.
The main areas in Nancheng are some workshops, cattle and horse markets, as well as some urban refugees, temples, etc.
It can be said that there are not many effective forces in Nancheng that can resist.
Oops!
Why are these people so useless!
Zhang Hao cursed, but he couldn't change the status quo. If Nancheng was really lost, wouldn't it mean that the Jin army opened the back door?
Where is Li Dalian?
Is he a dead man?
What was he sent there for?
Even if he can't defeat the Jin army, he can always hold on for a while, right? How long will it take?
Less than an hour!
Not even an hour!
Although the troops in the city were limited, Zhang Hao also dispatched 3,000 troops to him in an orderly manner. What was the result?
In less than an hour, he was crippled by the Jin army!
What a waste!
Even rubbish is not enough to describe Li Dalian's incompetence. Zhang Hao weighed it again and again and finally decided to go to the South City Gate to put out the fire first.
If you have a headache, treat your head, if your feet hurt, treat your feet. Di Qin is facing this situation now.
However, are there any medicine doctors here in Nancheng?
Just when Wang Zhiyuan was leading the Jin army to fight against the half-shortened South City Wall, the leader of the team, Li Dalian, was leisurely and contentedly drinking tea on the top floor of the South City Wall!
Of course he wanted to drink tea. This was the most relaxing moment for him since the war started.
Most of the Jin troops responsible for attacking the South City Gate were taken away by Wang Mi to attack the damaged city wall. However, in the front direction of the South City Gate, more than half of the remaining Jin troops were suddenly reduced.
For Qin Bing, this is of course great news.
The pressure on the Qin soldiers stationed on the frontal battlefield instantly became lighter.
