Under no talent, is a world famous general

Chapter 508 Dangerous situation!

Dali Dynasty, rushed to Zhoucheng.

Chengshoufu, the main hall.

The King of War is like a giant bear, sitting behind the table.

Although the scene was the same as before, his expression had changed a lot in a few days.

His military career did not make him feel tired, but his repeated defeats to Qin Yi made him feel extremely frustrated.

As a result, he was furious day and night, couldn't sleep, and his appearance became much older.

Zhan Wang felt uncomfortable, and neither did his subordinates. He was often scolded by Zhan Wang for trivial matters, and everyone was like walking a tightrope, full of fear.

Fortunately, no mistakes have been made, and the King of War will not punish easily, so everyone is safe and sound.

At this moment, the King of War was looking at the books on the case table, which recorded many materials in Chongzhou City, such as arrows, swords, armor, rolling logs and other armaments.

If you want to defend the city, you must have an understanding of the soldiers, horses and armaments in the city, so that you can be prepared.

Suddenly, a soldier rushed in and said anxiously, "My lord, the enemy soldiers have crossed the border and are coming towards Zhou, and they are already twenty miles away!"

The King of War suddenly raised his head, clenched his fists, and couldn't help feeling anxious.

Qin Yi, really came!
Before, he was already guessing whether Qin Yi would invade with troops.

With the nature of the other party, he will never bear the humiliation and give in, and will definitely lead his troops to come.

Now, as he had guessed, Zhan Wang didn't have the slightest complacency in his guess, but was full of dignity.

He frowned and shouted, "The order is passed on, all the soldiers must cheer up and get ready to defend Chong Zhou to the death!"

The soldiers quickly responded, "I obey your orders!"

After finishing speaking, the soldiers were about to turn around and leave, but suddenly they heard the call of the King of War, "Wait a minute!"

The soldiers stopped, turned around, bowed and waited for orders.

"Continue to send people to detect the movements of the enemy soldiers!" Zhan Wang added.

After escaping back to Chongzhou, he collected Qin Yi's past battles, and learned from them that Qin Yi always liked to divide his troops into two groups, whether he was attacking Luan Kingdom or Liukang.

The attack on Luan Kingdom was a two-way parallel attack, and the attack on Liukang was a two-way staggered march, and the purpose was to speed up the attack.

It is estimated that Qin Yi will also adopt this strategy to deal with Dali, one block and one attack, heavy troops block Chongzhou City, and divide troops to attack other cities.

So last night, the King of War sent [-] troops to garrison Qingzha City, eighty miles away.

There are only more than [-] guards in this city. If the enemy soldiers attack, it will be difficult to defend
Today, [-] soldiers and horses are stationed, and the number reaches [-]. It is not a problem to block more than [-] enemy soldiers.

In Chongzhou City, the soldiers and horses are reduced to more than [-]. It will be more difficult to deal with more than [-] enemy soldiers, but it will not be a problem to deal with more than [-] soldiers and horses.

Therefore, the king of war sent an order to let the soldiers investigate Qin Yi's movements.

Look at the opponent, whether there is any division of troops, if it is, it is just as he expected, so there is no need to worry too much.

If there is no division of troops... Zhan Wang secretly shook his head, it is impossible not to divide the troops.

Gu Yulan is leading his troops to the south, if Qin Yi wants to capture more cities before the opponent arrives, he has to adopt a strategy of dividing his troops in order to speed up the attack!
Half an hour later, Zhan Wang, who was pacing anxiously in the hall, finally waited for the news.

"My lord, the enemy soldiers have arrived eight miles away!" The soldiers rushed into the hall and reported urgently.

The King of War quickly asked, "How many people are there?"

"More than two hundred thousand!" The soldiers quickly replied.

"What?" Zhan Wang was startled suddenly, his pupils opened wide!

Qin Yi didn't divide his troops?

This is impossible!

When the opponent attacks a city, they always like to divide their troops, why not divide them now?
He has transferred [-] soldiers and horses, and there are only [-] left in the city. If Qin Yi does not divide the troops, Chong Zhou will face more than [-] enemy soldiers. This... what should I do?
His face turned pale with shock, and the King of War hurriedly shouted, "Quickly, send an order to the rear city, and send a message to His Majesty, to ask for reinforcements!"

He knew that the Emperor Dali was dispatching troops, and he was not in a hurry at first, but now, because of his miscalculation, Chongzhou was in danger, and he had to urge reinforcements to come as soon as possible, otherwise... Chongzhou would be difficult to defend for a long time !

As for Qingzha's soldiers and horses, they are eighty miles apart, and the far water cannot dispel the near fire.

What's more, there are only more than [-] Qingzha guards. Even if they are all sent, they may not be able to defeat Qin Yi, but will put Qingzha City into crisis.

The soldiers didn't know why Zhan Wang was so anxious, but they were also infected by the other party's emotions, so they responded quickly and rushed out of the camp, very hastily.

Zhan Wang was worried, and he paced more and more hurriedly in the hall. Finally, he couldn't help it, and shouted loudly, "Come on, prepare your armor!"

He had to go to the city wall and inspect the city defense in person, so as not to make mistakes and be taken advantage of by the enemy soldiers, then disaster would be imminent!
……

Leading the two armies and arriving under Chongzhou, Qin Yi ordered his subordinates to set up camps in the east of Chongzhou City, while Hengyu's troops set up camps in the south of Chongzhou City.

Just as Zhan Wang expected, if he wanted to speed up the attack, he would divide his troops into two groups, but Qin Yi had already seen through the map of the war version that Zhan Wang had dispatched a heavy force to settle in Qingzha City.

This means that the number of soldiers and horses in Chongzhou City has changed from more than [-] to more than [-] to [-].

That being the case, it is the best policy to merge and attack Chongzhou!
He only laughed at the King of War, thinking that no one knew about the deployment of troops, but he didn't know that he could see clearly.

When the soldiers were approaching Chongzhou, it was mid-afternoon, and after an hour's rest, Qin Yi issued an order that the two armies send troops to attack Chongzhou!
Gu Yulan will go south in a few days. If she joins hands with the King of War, the pressure on her side will suddenly increase.

If possible, the King of War must be dealt with first.

With an order, the drums roared in the camp, and the soldiers came out of the camp one after another, full of murderous aura.

The same is true for Heng Yu's department, who are all preparing to attack the city.

After the battle array was completed, Qin Yi gave the order to march.

More than [-] soldiers and horses approached Chongzhou City, and the scene was terrifying.

As for the siege equipment, when Qin Yi was in Bo City, he ordered his subordinates to manufacture many parts. After arriving in Chongzhou, it took a little time to complete the assembly.

They were all third-generation double-tip counterweight catapults, six of them, and Qin Yi also sent people to transport six of them to the house.

The heavy attack on both sides depends on the King of War's ability to defend the city.

Not long after, the battle formation came four miles away from Chongzhou City. More than [-] soldiers remained silent, except for the sound of hunting and banners unfurling, which filled the wilderness outside the city with a sense of murder.

The guards on the top of the city couldn't help but panic when they saw it.

Enemy soldiers... a lot!
But at this moment, the King of War has brought many personal soldiers, standing on the top of the city, ready to fight.

He squinted his eyes tightly, like needle points, staring at the banners below the city.

Seeing the Qin character on it, Zhan Wang was full of annoyance.

He has been in the army for more than ten years, and he has never encountered such a strong enemy, which made him lose face after repeated defeats.

But this time defending Chongzhou, even if there are not many troops, the opponent will have to pay a heavy price.

Let the other party know that he is the king of war, not a mediocre person!

Glancing at the head of Zhou Cheng, Qin Yi's expression was flat, he slowly raised his hand, then swung it down suddenly, and shouted, "Throw a stone!"

Immediately, the catapult set up in front of the formation made a loud "bang", and the stone bullets were fired, making a swishing sound.

Zhan Wang was horrified and hissed, "Avoid!"

He hurriedly ran towards the city tower, shouting as he ran, "Quickly counterattack!"

Catapults were also deployed in the city, but they were only the second-generation single-stem catapults. Compared with the catapults in Qin Yi's army, they were weaker in terms of projecting distance and power.

The two sides began to throw stones at each other, but Qin Yi's stone bullets hit the city wall many times, while the catapults under the King of War hit Qin Yi's position much less frequently.

After all, the distance is a little far, and the double-tip catapult can hit the opponent, but it does not mean that the opponent's single-tip catapult can also counterattack successfully.

As a result, the Chongzhou city wall began to be damaged, dust and mist surged, gravel splashed, and many guards died under the stone bullets.

Even a corner of the city tower was trampled and fell down, hitting many guards and causing some casualties.

Although the King of War saw a bad opportunity and took the lead to retreat, he was still hit on the head by a sputtering gravel, and blood flowed down.

Seeing that there were many injuries in Chongzhou City, Qin Yi immediately shouted, "Stop throwing stones and attack!"

Immediately, the soldiers and horses of the former army roared and ran towards Chongzhou.

On the top of the city, the surviving guards hurriedly drew their bows and set up arrows, shooting arrows at the soldiers facing Linzhan.

However, after being attacked by stone bombs, the guards suffered a lot of casualties, vacancy appeared in the top of the city, and morale also dropped, so that the counterattack was somewhat weak, and the arrows were sparse, which did not cause too much damage to the guards.

Hearing the cry from the city, the King of War rushed to the top of the wall, looked outside, and found that the enemy soldiers had already attacked the city. He was terrified and shouted, "Hurry up, defend quickly, bring hot oil and rolling logs!"

"The patrol team is called in, and all the spare soldiers and horses are also called in. We must guard the top of the city!" Zhan Wang hissed again and again.

Immediately, many soldiers rushed to the top of the city and began to resist. Hot oil and rolling logs also began to be brought to the top of the city and put into use.

But at this time, Lin Zhan's soldiers had also set up the ladder, climbed halfway along the ladder, and were about to climb to the top of the city.

The guards were terrified, a little panicked, and frantically poured arrows and hot oil and rolled logs, trying to knock the soldiers in front of them off the ladder.

But Lin Zhan's soldiers were as imposing as a rainbow, and they went on and on, fearless of death.

As a result, the guarding soldiers were getting closer and closer to the top of the city, while the enemy's defenses became more and more flustered, and the effect was greatly reduced.

At this moment, a soldier who was on the lookout boarded the top of the city!
He jumped up and stepped on the female wall, seeing the light of the knives flashing, and the two knives were about to cut at his thighs and waist.

He immediately dived over the heads of the two enemy soldiers, rolled forward when he landed, lost his strength, and dodged several enemy soldiers who rushed over.

After getting up, he hurriedly ran on the top of the city to a place where there were few people, hacking and killing while running, attracting the attention of many enemy soldiers.

Therefore, the pressure on the guarding soldiers who were climbing the top of the city suddenly dropped, and in an instant, four or five soldiers climbed up to the top of the city.

The enemy soldiers were terrified and wanted to intercept them, but there were more and more soldiers climbing to the top of the city, and it was impossible to defend.

The guards could only put down their arrows and logs, draw out their long knives, and start fighting.

The offensive and defensive battle at the head of the city has already begun!
The King of War turned pale with astonishment, and shouted in panic, "Hurry up, beat the enemy soldiers down!"

He had no choice but to draw out his long knife, rush forward with his own soldiers, join the battle group, and fight with the enemy soldiers.

Seeing more and more soldiers and horses of his own side on the top of the wall, Qin Yi squinted his eyes and stared closely.

Whether this siege can be successful or not depends on whether the top of the city can be captured!
