On the tenth day of the seventh day of the first year of the Second Emperor of the Qin Dynasty!
A hint of dawn began to appear in the easternmost sky, and the sky was finally coming!
Countless beating torches on the walls of Chengwu City were burning, illuminating the entire wall within fifty steps inside and outside the city wall as if it were daytime!
The smoke of gunpowder mixed with the smell of burnt body and the strong bloody smell filled the air, making people feel vomited when they smell it!
The city walls of Chengwu City, which were originally neatly repaired, are now full of traces of smoke and fire everywhere. Many battlements and bricks can be seen everywhere. There are countless or bandages in the broken aisles of the city walls.
Some of the Qin soldiers with broken armor and covered with smoke on their bodies were lying on the ground, holding the copper sword in their hands, or sleeping soundly with a strong crossbow!
The sand and soil that were originally laid in the aisle to prevent the neck beam from jumping was originally burnt by a fire on the city wall, but now it has been soaked in thick blood. The entire aisle of the city wall has become
The blood-red swamp!
Since Xiang Liang withdrew his troops last night due to the setting fires of Xuanniao Camp, he has started a continuous and overwhelming attack on the small Chengwu City! He has been attacking continuously for nearly five hours in a row!
The news that Xiang Zhuang was killed by Weng Zhong had already been reported to Xiang Liang at the dinner!
During these five hours of uninterrupted attacks, Xiang Yu led the army to attack the southern city wall, and Long Qi replaced Xiang Zhuang's army who had been killed by Weng Zhong to attack the western city wall. Ying Bu and Ji Bu replaced Sima Ang and Tiandu respectively, responsible for the
Lead the army to attack the East City Wall and the South City Wall!
Xiang Yu, Long Qi, Ying Bu and Ji Bu are all powerful generals in a thousand. Every time they attack, the four people will lead by themselves, staring at the sky with big shields and flying locusts on the city walls and charging forward.
!
What the four main generals did greatly stimulate the morale of the rebel soldiers! The most important thing is that Xiang Liang had already said that all the miscellaneous soldiers had retreated, and all of them used the Baiyue barbarians as the main force in the attack.
!
Within five hours, Xiang Yu and the other four climbed the city wall several times, especially Xiang Yu, who could basically climb the city wall every time. If Weng Zhong had not been able to withstand Xiang Yu's force, the southern city wall would have been captured by Xiang Yu long ago!
Even so, the South City Wall is the place with the most casualties among the four walls! Because, all the veterans of the Six Kingdoms who followed Xiang Yu to attack the South City Wall were veterans! Fortunately, Du Teng, Xiahou Ying and Fan Kuai were also very skilled in martial arts, and they faced Long Qi and
Erbu happens to meet the opponent!
Now these Qin soldiers lying on the ground had just driven Xiang Yu and the others off the city wall! The rest that I finally got was the only stop for Xiang Liang's army within these five hours, and it seemed that they were tired too!
Under the city wall, large areas of corpses of Xiang Liang's rebel soldiers were piled up together, layer after layer. They were almost meter high, burying the entire city wall!
There was silence in Chengwu City, but there were noise outside the city! Obviously, the Xiang Liang army outside the city was stepping up the dispatch of troops! After this short interval, the offensive would be more fierce than before!
The rolling stones, wood and tinder in the city have been used up for a long time! All the crossbows have been exhausted! In the next hour, the Qin soldiers were completely fighting with Xiangliang rebels!
Hu Haishen walked in the aisle of the city wall with one foot shallow and one foot shallow. The brocade boots were completely stained with blood mud and could not see clearly the original appearance! Long Xuan and several dragon guards followed him!
He stepped over a Qin army soldier lying across the middle of the aisle. When Hu Hai settled down, he accidentally encountered the bronze sword half in his arms and half on the ground. This Qin army soldier who had originally slept heavily
He immediately turned over and stood up.
"enemy……"
Hu Hai covered the mouth of the Qin army soldier who wanted to open his mouth and shouted "Enemy attack" and used a gesture to make a "shhh" gesture on his mouth! However, even though Hu Hai's movements were already fast enough, this
The word "enemy" wakes up the Qin soldiers who seem to be sleeping soundly around him!
The Qin soldiers who were originally lying on the ground with weapons in their arms jumped up one after another, ran to the broken wall with the weapons in their hands, and looked alertly!
"Old Wang, you old boy is so damn unreasonable! When is it now? You are still joking! This traitor finally took a break, but I still hope to take a look and get more heads after he has enough energy.
On the belt! How can you sleep when you make trouble?" A strong man with a completely disagreeable move and figure looked at the empty city wall and cursed!
"That's right, Lao Wang, you're so fucking sensible. His Majesty the Emperor heard that he hasn't slept yet..." A thin man next to the man turned around and cursed halfway, and saw him standing with a grievance.
Hu Hai, who was beside Lao Wang, stopped cursing!
"See Your Majesty! Your Majesty forgives your crime!" The thin man was so shocked that he flew out of the sky, and he quickly knelt on one knee and clasped his fists!
Hu Hai saw that the Qin soldiers who were sleeping soundly around the city wall stood up because of this loud voice and said, "Okay, I want to secretly come up and see how the soldiers on the city wall are in their condition!" He never thought that he woke up all the soldiers.
!If I had known it, I would have heard that Long Xuan would not come!
"No need to be polite! I just came up to see you, you can continue to sleep, don't worry about me! Also, this is not Lao Wang's business, I woke him up!" Hu Hai saw the Qin army surrounding him.
The soldiers were ready to salute and quickly stopped them!
Hearing Hu Hai's words, the soldiers who stood up lie on the ground again, but the excited eyes clearly told Hu Hai that no one could fall asleep again!
"Your Majesty, why are you here?"
At this time, Du Teng, who was in charge of the city wall on the west, hurriedly came up after receiving a report from his personal guard!
"I just want to come up and see what the casualties are?"
As soon as the battle stopped, Hu Hai headed straight to the city wall. So how many casualties of the Qin army in these five hours, he still received a definite message!
"Return to Your Majesty, the elite soldiers who followed Your Majesty to the north now have only more than 2,000 intact soldiers! And most of them are soldiers of the Xuanwu Army! The soldiers who died in the battle include the two thousand soldiers who died in the ancient road of Heze, and there are more than 12,000 soldiers who have died in the Heze ancient road.
!”
"Where are the people of Chengwu?" Although Hu Hai, the wounded soldier who could be seen everywhere in the city, had already expected that there would be heavy casualties, he just didn't expect it to be so heavy!
"Go back to Your Majesty, more than 18,000 Chengwu soldiers and more than 3,000 old Qin soldiers were all killed! The rest of Chengwu people counted nearly 13,000 casualties!" A trace of sadness flashed in Du Teng's eyes, hesitation
He said for a moment!
"In other words, there are less than 8,000 soldiers in the city who can fight in one battle?" Hu Hai said in silence for a long time!
"Your Majesty is relieved! Although our army has suffered so many casualties, the Xiangliang bandit army is at least more than three times the casualties of our soldiers! Moreover, the Xiangliang army must have few siege equipment left now!" Du Teng comforted!
"What I am worried about is not the city breaking! It is whether it is right or wrong for me to stop at Chengwu!" Hu Hai turned his head and held the slightly hot wall with his hands, looked at Xiang Liang's camp with his brightly lit from afar, and sighed!
"Your Majesty, Xiang Liang's army should only have about 200,000 people to fight again! It has been two days now. As long as the general and General Han Xin can arrive in time, these rebels will definitely be able to fight in one battle, and the rebellion that ravaged the Qin Dynasty will surely be the first to rebel.
It can be swept away." Du Teng said excitedly!
"Yes! As long as Han Xin and Meng Tian's army arrive at Chengwu all the way! Xiang Liang is over!" Hu Hai said quietly, rubbing the bumpy wall bricks!
At the same time, a dispute broke out in Xiang Liang's tent!
"Uncle, as long as I give my nephew another hour, I will definitely be able to lead the army and flatten this martial arts in one fell swoop! Take the head of the dog emperor to present it to my uncle!" Xiang Yu knelt on one knee with a sincere face and looked at Xiang Liangdao!
Xiang Liang carried his body on his back and said without looking back: "Nephew, you have said this to your uncle three times, right? But now Cheng Wucheng is still intact in the hands of the Qin army, at the top of the city
The Qin Emperor flag on it is still not pulled out by you!”
In the end, Xiang Liang's voice gradually changed!
"Uncle..."
"Enough!" Xiang Liang suddenly turned around and interrupted Xiang Yu and said sternly! Xiang Liang seemed to calm his anger. After a while, he continued: "I know you are eager to avenge Xiang Zhuang, and my uncle has already put three
All the elite soldiers were allocated to you to attack the city, but now, 30,000 veterans were killed or killed, and more than 100,000 people from all tribes of the Hundred Thousands of the Hundred Thousands had nearly half of them. How would you please ask your uncle to transfer troops to you? Ji Bu, Long
And both of them were injured. Look at yourself again. How many rounds have you fought with the Qin general? Did you do anything to the Qin general?
You have read the letter from Shouchun. The remaining army of more than 200,000 is the foundation of our Xiang clan, Xiang Yu! If there were no more than 200,000 soldiers, how could our Xiang clan gain a foothold in the State of Chu?
There is no need to mention the siege of the city. You can quickly get some clothes and the army will set off the camp in one hour and return to Shouchun!" After Xiang Liang said that, he turned around and stopped looking at Xiang Yu!
Xiang Yu, wearing tattered armor, stared at Xiang Liang's back with red eyes for a long time, finally lowered dejectedly and said respectfully: "My nephew is obeying his uncle's order!"
After that, Xiang Yu glared fiercely at Zhang Liang sitting on the side of the big tent and laughed, then stood up and strode out of Xiang Liang's big tent!
"General, have you really decided?" Zhang Liang didn't seem to see Xiang Yu's eyes. When Xiang Yu left the tent, he pondered for a while and spoke!
"Zifang thought it was a bit credible to what Shouchun said in his letter?" Xiang Liang turned around and looked at Zhang Liang and said in a deep voice!
"If what you expected is not bad, Liang thought it would be true!" Zhang Liang said affirmatively!
"Oh? Why is the ovary so sure?" Xiang Liang said in confusion!
"Did the General remember what the man from Xianyang said in the newspaper?"
"Do you mean the 21-word rumor?"
"That's right! If there weren't those twenty-one-word rumors, you would definitely not believe in the words of Shouchun Xin newspaper. However, now it seems that Mr. Ziying is more anxious than us!" Zhang Liang said with a smile.
