Great Zhou Tianzi

Meng Ao looked at the artillery position of the Zhou army high above, he knew that as long as he rushed hard, he could take it, but the casualties would be huge, and taking this place did not mean that the next road would be smooth.

Because he had always had the idea of ​​fluke before and suffered a lot along the way, so now he has no illusions.

In fact, this is the last artillery position arranged by Ji Jie. As long as Meng Ao dares to rush up, there will be a flat road behind.

Things are often like this, when you feel that there is an insurmountable gap in front of you, it is actually a small gutter, and the sea and the sky will be vast if you step across it, but there are very few people who dare to raise their legs.

"Forget it, let's take a rest!" Meng Ao ordered: "Count the number of dead and injured, and send scouts to detour to inquire about General Yan's situation. These two things should be done together!"

"As ordered!"

The number of casualties was quickly counted. There were over a hundred soldiers who died in the harassment along the way. Generally speaking, the casualties were not large, and they could almost be regarded as negligible for an army of tens of thousands.

However, everyone has lingering fears, because you don't know when the shells will fall on your side, and there is no way to avoid it.

The scouts also quickly sent back the news of Yanping, saying that he and the remaining 1 Qin troops were about to faint from hunger, and that Ji Jie's men were attacking them psychologically.

……

Ji Jian picked up a basket of big buns stuffed with meat, threw them at the soldiers of the Qin army, and shouted: "Your grandfather Ji Jian is in a good mood, please eat buns, you are welcome, if you want to eat, then eat it." Put down your weapons and come over, you will be full!"

Many soldiers looked eagerly at the flying steamed stuffed bun, but without the general's order, none of them dared to step forward, so they could only watch helplessly as the big white steamed stuffed bun fell into the bloody water.

"General, what should we do? Everyone is hungry!" Pian Jiang asked.

Yanping glared at him, stood up with a "huh", and shouted to Ji Jian: "You Dazhou people are not kind, and you treat us in such a way, I refuse to accept it!"

Ji Jian sneered and said, "Not convinced? So you are a very kind person! Then who sneaked under the city of my Great Zhou Kingdom last night, and then broke in. If you engage in a sneak attack, we are not allowed to counter it." Sneak attack? Yanping, I thought you were someone, but now it seems that compared with other Qin generals, you are not even an ant!"

"You..." Yanping was so angry that he couldn't speak!

"What are you, my lord said, I will give you a quarter of an hour to think about it!" Ji Jie raised a finger and said, "As soon as the time is over, we will fire immediately! The artillerymen obeyed the order and pushed the trebuchet to me!" Come up, Thunderbolt archers are ready!"

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of large and small trebuchets were pushed out from the crowd, and the sky-shattering shells on their throwing arms pointed directly at the Qin formation, and tens of thousands of soldiers with Thunderbolt crossbows came forward.

Yanping sat on the ground angrily again, and said sharply: "Whoever dares to surrender to Da Zhou will be punished on the spot! Even if he dies, he must die with integrity!"

Time passed by every minute and every second, and Ji Jian squinted at the sun hanging high in the sky, and said loudly: "You still have a little time, of course not much! Living is what everyone is born with. No one can deprive you of your rights, just do what you think in your heart, whoever won’t let you live, you should let him die first!”

Yanping was taken aback when he heard this, and he had to say that people in this era have limited thinking ability.

However, many people still understood the meaning of Ji Jian's words, and they all looked at Yanping with resentful eyes until he felt hairy.

"What do you want to do?" Yanping pulled out his long sword and said sharply: "Do you think that if you surrender, you will end well? Look at these corpses on the ground, and look at those companions buried in the ruins. If Ji Jie is really How could a kind-hearted person kill us! Don’t be fooled by their nonsense, soldiers who surrender are inferior to pigs and dogs in the eyes of the victors. Think about how you used to deal with captives from other countries , that is the end of surrender!"

Many of these soldiers are veterans who have participated in the Battle of Changping. What Yanping said is very reasonable. Those who surrender can only be slaughtered. Who told you to give up the chance to die with the enemy in the end!

"Everyone follow me and rush out to join General Meng. I took a look just now and General Meng is very close to us!" Yanping continued: "As long as you and I can break out of the encirclement, we will be saved!"

"Rush with the general!"

"Come on!"

Ji Jian's psychological offensive failed. He turned his head and glanced helplessly at Ji Jie's position, and at the same time shrugged.

Ji Jie saw Ji Jian's expression clearly through the binoculars, and he ordered the messengers around him: "Send a signal for the general attack, and let Ji Jian and Zhao Ling follow the plan!"

A green signal flare rushed into the sky, Ji Jian and Zhao Ling issued an attack command at the same time, hundreds of trebuchets roared, Qin Jun led by Yan Ping desperately attacked a point, when they rushed to a certain distance Suddenly, thunderbolts hit like raindrops.

The Qin army suffered heavy casualties. Yanping organized two charges in succession, but they failed in the end, and the remaining strength of the soldiers was exhausted.

At this time, the Zhou army moved together, while charging at the Qin army trapped in the center, while narrowing the encirclement without limit, the general ground attack began.

On the other side, Meng Ao's scouts knelt in front of him and said in a hurry: "The Zhou army launched a general attack, and General Yan has no power to fight back. He is suppressed in a small area, and the entire army is in danger of being wiped out." !"

Meng Ao took a deep breath, shook his head and said: "For decades, our Qin army has been invincible in battle, but why is it not an opponent of Ji Jie? This time the loss was even greater. In two days, all 11 elites were lost. And I was trapped on the rescue road and couldn't move!"

"General Meng, what shall we do next?"

Meng Ao thought for a while and asked, "How long do you think General Yan can last?"

After a comprehensive analysis by several generals, they came to a conclusion: "At most half an hour!"

"Then let's act in two quarters of an hour!" Meng Ao said: "At that time, the Zhou army will think that they have a chance to win, so as to reduce the resistance to us. We just rushed in to rescue General Yanping from trouble!"

"General Meng is wise!"

When Meng Ao launched a charge, the artillery position on the high ground only fired a few shells symbolically, and then fled away. Before they could meet the Zhou army who besieged Yanping, Yanping succeeded with two or three thousand remnants A hole was opened and rushed out from inside!

Not only Meng Ao, but even Yanping himself didn't believe it was true.

But the facts are in front of us, they really rushed out, the two sides joined forces, Yanping didn't have time to say anything to Meng Aoduo, only one sentence: "Retreat, target our camp, if we can't hold on!"
