Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 273 General Nai Weng!

Temple——

Almost as soon as Liu Ji and the Qiang warriors jumped into the trench, the gunpowder packs in the city wall behind them exploded at the same time, and the sound was muffled.

As if someone let out a big boring fart!

But what was visible to the naked eye was that the section of the city wall seemed to be shaken, and the defenders of the Western Regions on the city wall were also staggered from the shock.

Including the burning car that was close to the city wall, it was also shaken, and then fell apart.

The battering hammer that Liu Ji used to plug the blasting hole was blown away by the kinetic energy of the explosion, like a super crossbow gun, whistling and flying several feet away...

slam-la-

The water in the trench was surging, and Liu Jihe's Qiang warriors poked their heads out of the cold stagnant water to look at the city wall.

"General Nai Weng, it doesn't seem to be successful?"

After a Qiang warrior glanced at the city wall, he couldn't help but be disappointed and said to Liu Ji.

When Liu Ji heard the sound, his scorched and water-soaked beard could not help but curl up, feeling very helpless.

For one thing, Filibala risked being burned alive, but failed to blast. How could he not be disappointed when he won the victory of breaking the city?
Secondly, it's also because he is not serious on weekdays, he kept calling himself Nai Weng, but the Qiang soldiers didn't understand what he meant, so they thought it was his nickname, so they called him "General Nai Weng".

Calling yourself Nai Weng to others is taking advantage.

But in turn, he was scolding him, and all the Qiang soldiers in the army were scolding him...

"There is a saying in the "Basic Book of Military Affairs of the Great Qin Dynasty" that when blasting with gunpowder, the tighter the seal, the greater the power, but the battering ram I used to block the blast hole was blown out by the force of the explosion, and it must have leaked a lot Power, that's why it can't blow down the city wall!"

Liu Jilian guessed and explained with Meng, and comforted the disappointed Qiang warriors: "However, there is no need to be discouraged. Since the city wall has been bombed once, even if this section of the city wall is strong, it is about to collapse. The thunderbolt bombs of the soldiers are gathered together, and it only needs to be blown up again, and it will undoubtedly collapse..."

His words of consolation turned into encouragement before he knew it, and he actually wanted to encourage the Qiang warriors to do it again.

All the Qiang soldiers took out the individual Thunderbolt bombs they were carrying, but found that they were all soaked in water, and they didn't know if the pull-type fuze could still be ignited.

crackling-

Just as Liu Ji and the Qiang warriors were hiding in the cold trench water, thinking about launching cluster bombs, the city wall in front of them suddenly began to peel off a large amount of sand and soil.

Liu Ji heard the movement, and cautiously lifted the iron-faced head out of the ditch to have a look.

At this time, more and more sand and soil walls were peeling off from that section of the city wall, and there were huge cracks at the blast hole, spreading to all sides.

The defenders of the Western Regions on the city wall probably also sensed that something was wrong, and were rushing to flee to both sides, trying to leave the part of the city wall under their feet.

Liu Ji's eyes lit up, and he immediately said anxiously to the Qiang warriors: "Listen to Nai Weng's order, and throw all the thunderbolt bombs under the city wall together, and prepare...to pull the fuze...to throw~!"

woohoo-

The Qiang warriors were very obedient, and regardless of whether the water-soaked thunderbolts would explode or not, they would do what Liu Ji said. Following the order without hesitation, they pulled off the fuses of all the thunderbolts they were carrying and threw them out.

boom--

boom-

Dozens of thunderbolt bombs soaked in water fell under the city wall, and only a few exploded.

However, the shock waves and vibrations produced by these individual thunderbolt bombs were like the last camel that broke the straw.

The city wall collapsed with a bang!

In the sky full of dust, a gap of three or four feet collapsed!
……

At the same time, the Qin army attacked the city.

choke-

Meng Tian drew out his battle sword, pointed at the gap obliquely, and shouted awe-inspiringly: "Come to the slave army first, attack~!!!"

dong dong dong -- dong dong dong --

The sound of war drums followed, and there was no step-by-step process. At the beginning, it was as urgent as a shower, urging people to tremble in their hearts and blood.

"Aww~!!!"

The Qiang people, who had been accumulating for a long time before the battle, boarded the slave army first, and immediately uttered a roaring roar, and rushed across the trench bridges on the moat with their shields on their shields, and the roads filled with sand and soil by the trench filling trucks, towards the Charge at the gap in the city wall.

shhhhh--

On the city walls on both sides of the gap, the defenders of the Western Regions desperately opened their bows and arrows, shooting dense feather arrows, trying to stop the Qiang slave army.

There are also Western Region defenders under the city wall. They climbed up the slope formed by the collapse of the wall at the gap, occupied the commanding heights, and hurriedly buried Juma antlers.

However, no matter the crossbowmen on the city or the brave dead soldiers below the city, they were attacked by the Qin army's long-range firearms in an instant.

After a round of bombing, the crossbowmen from the Western Regions on the walls on both sides suffered heavy casualties and fell silent.

And the brave dead soldiers who tried to seal the gap in the city, together with their horse-rejecting antlers, were blown to pieces!

At this time, the screaming and charging Qiang slave army had already entered the inner line of the moat, and those who were eager to make meritorious deeds were about to approach the gap.

The long-range firearms were afraid of accidental injury, so they stopped firing immediately, and the crossbowmen of the Qin Army took over the cover task instead, firing arrows non-stop, and shooting the fish that slipped through the net!

"Hahaha, the kids are going to fight with Nai Weng, the first achievement is also ours..."

Liu Ji crawled out of the ditch with a big laugh, and led the Qiang warriors under his command who were still able to run, picked up the shields and rushed up the slope, occupying the commanding heights immediately, shouting in the half-baked language of the Western Regions: "Shut down!" Those who die will be spared, and those who resist stubbornly will be pitted~!"

woohoo-

bang bang bang-

Liu Ji was answered by dozens of powerful spears, which instantly tied the shields in the hands of him and the Qiang warriors under his command into hedgehogs.

There were spears that pierced through the shields, and even hit the iron armor on them to the point of sparks!

Liu Ji barely stabilized his figure and took a closer look, and found that there were defenders from the Western Regions howling and rushing towards him in front of him and on the left and right sides, as if he didn't want the Qin army to easily enter the city.

He subconsciously groped for the skin on the back of his waist, but this groping was in vain. Just now, in order to completely collapse the city wall, even the water-soaked Thunderbolt bullets for individual soldiers have been used up!
If he wants to fight in close combat and block the swarming Western Region defenders, unless he is surrounded by soldiers from the Qin army, he will definitely be invincible in the melee... But, he is surrounded by all the guards now. The Qiang warriors who are more than brave but not well trained...

However, he has always been very smart, the hand that reached for the leather bag on the back of his waist in a flash of thought, had already taken off the skin bag, and then threw the empty skin bag to the Western Region defenders who were close to the collapsed slope in front of them.

hula-la-

This move had a miraculous effect. The defenders of the Western Regions had already been psychologically shadowed by the firearms. When they saw Liu Ji throwing something they had never seen before, they thought it was some kind of individual firearm, and they all stopped and lay down to avoid it.

Those who were closer to the skin were even more reckless, and jumped out to the side, and continued to roll to open the distance after landing.

The Qiang warriors under Liu Ji's command saw that his move was useful, and immediately followed suit. They took off their empty skin bags and threw them at the Western Region defenders who dared to charge.

Then, a strange scene appeared.

Where the skins fell, the Allied forces of the Western Regions lay down, but they lay on the ground and waited and waited with their heads in their arms, but there was no explosion, and the battlefield that should have been fighting loudly fell into a brief silence!
Liu Jihe's Qiang warriors stood at the commanding heights of the slope, hid behind shields, and looked down at the Western Region defenders lying all over the ground.

Seconds passed, and the defenders of the Western Regions finally realized that they had been deceived. They got up angrily, waved their swords and spears ferociously, and rushed towards Liu Ji and the others on the slope.

But this time, Liu Ji and the Qiang warriors under his command were not doing any tricks, but just swooped down head-on with a fearless attitude.

Like a solitary boat, crashing into the huge waves!

The defenders of the Western Regions hated them playing tricks on themselves, so they responded with an eye for an eye. Before the two sides approached, the spears had been leveled, and the spears were aimed at Liu Ji and the others who swooped down. The spear hits...

However, before Liu Jihe's Qiang soldiers hit the spears, individual thunderbolts emitting green smoke flew over their heads before they landed on the Western Region defenders.

This time, it's not a lie...

boom boom-

Amidst the sound of explosions one after another, the Qiang slave army swept over the commanding heights of the slope like a tide, followed Liu Ji and others, swept down the slope in the city, rushed towards the dizzy western defenders, and took them away with one wave ...

Liu Ji was very purposeful, led the Qiang warriors under his command, went directly to the tower, and ran towards the general's banner.

They are a team, each wearing full body armor.

Moreover, except for Liu Ji, they were all Qiang warriors who were not affected by altitude sickness, so the small group of Western Region defenders could not stop them at all.

And a large group of Western Region defenders, before rushing to them, were taken care of by the Qin Army's long-range firearms outside the city and the Qin Army's crossbowmen, and were instantly crippled!
Liu Ji led the Qiang warriors under his command to kill through the blocking enemies all the way, and rushed to the banner of the general of the Western Region Allied Forces fluttering on the tower.

click-

After a few big knives slashed, the flagpole was cut off, and the flag fell to the top of the city.

The blood-stained flail in Liu Ji's hand pointed at the defenders of the Western Regions who rushed to protect the flag nearby, and once again roared with anger: "The one who descends will not die!"

The blood-stained Qiang warriors shouted awe-inspiringly: "Those who surrender will not die~!!!"

The defenders of the Western Regions looked at the big banner falling from the top of the city, saw more and more Qiang slave troops pouring into the city, and finally looked at Liu Ji and the others who were killing gods, all of them looked sad!
At this time, the shouts of those who descended from death have spread all over the city.

The Qiang slave army pouring into the city was shouting in the poor language of the Western Regions, and the remaining Qin army siege troops outside the city were also shouting in the poor language of the Western Regions...

Dang-

Some soldiers from the Western Regions dropped their weapons, took off their armor, and prostrated themselves on the ground in resignation.

pat-

Clang——

Like a chain reaction, more and more soldiers from the Western Regions threw away their weapons and shields and prostrated themselves to show their surrender.

Meng Tian's scheming yesterday finally worked!

The desperate idea of ​​the soldiers in the Western Regions has been unknowingly disintegrated, or it is no longer as firm as they thought.

Given a choice, they chose to surrender to the seemingly benevolent Qin army!

Naturally, there were some stubborn resisters, some crazy people even wanted to burn hundreds of thousands of Qiang slaves imprisoned in the city to death, and buried them with themselves.

However, as the Qin army garrisoned them and led the Qiang auxiliary army to join the battle in the city, all important places in the city were quickly controlled.

Grain, cattle and sheep, armored equipment, and even the treasure house are all sealed up!

Of course, hundreds of thousands of Qiang slaves who were starved to death were also rescued!

The remnants of the stubborn resistance in the city were wiped out before noon. The Qin army kept its word, and the stubborn resistance, whether dead or injured, were all dragged to the trenches outside the city and buried.

When the wounded were trapped, the mournful wailing sounds, and even the sound of crying and begging for mercy, spread from outside the city to the inside of the city, which made one's scalp tingle.

But the rescued hundreds of thousands of Qiang slaves felt as if they heard the sound of a fairy, and they felt a bad breath in their hearts. If they were not so hungry that they couldn't walk, they would have to go to watch the torture in person.

When the soldiers of the Western Regions who surrendered and were imprisoned heard about it, they were saddened by the death of the rabbit and the fox, but they couldn't help but rejoice. Qin Jun kept his word, at least they could still live, couldn't they?

"Don't feed them meat, cook some porridge first, and let them each drink a bowl... Otherwise, if you are too hungry and overeat suddenly, it is easy to burst your stomach, and the loss outweighs the gain..."

Qin Mo and Meng Tian led a team of personal guards to inspect the rescued Qiang people, and asked the leader of the army and the accompanying medical staff to help and treat them wholeheartedly.

By the way, Meng Tian offered a generous reward for finding the traces of Dunwei and his entourage: "Have you ever seen the Qin officials who were detained by the Allied Forces of the Western Regions? If anyone knows the traces of those Qin officials, I will reward you ten Jin~!"

This reward is really heavy, but it is also something that cannot be helped.

Before the two came here, they had already questioned all the captured generals of the Allied Forces of the Western Regions, and none of them had seen Dunwei.

But if it is said that Dunwei is dead, it is somewhat wrong.

After all, when Chiyan Pass was breached, Qin Mo got a clear message that it was Tuoliti who led the remnants to escape, and took Dunwei and others away.

Toriti finally fled to this stone city, and it stands to reason that Dunwei and others should be there, even if they died, there should be some traces, there is no reason to disappear out of thin air!
"My lord...the general...a coalition army from the Western Regions escaped from the west gate, and was blocked by an ambush led by General Xia Houying. There were about [-] of them...General Xia Houying asked for reinforcements."

Just when Qin Mo and Meng Tian were at their wit's end, an urgent military report came suddenly, and the two had no choice but to gather their thoughts and deal with the business at hand.

Ever since the Qin army came outside Stone City, they have always followed the strategy of encircling three ques and one, which seems to have left a way for the coalition forces of the Western Regions to retreat.

Of course, the so-called Wei San Que Yi has always been a deceitful cover, and whoever is serious is a fool.

Unless there are special circumstances where the enemy is deliberately let go, otherwise the seemingly survival is 100% dangerous!

But knowing is knowing.

Among the allied forces in the Western Regions, there were many who were unwilling to surrender to the Qin army, nor did they want to fight to the death in vain. Seeing that they could not keep the time, they resolutely abandoned the city and fled.

Escape from Ximen, which is not surrounded by the Qin army!
Then, without any surprise, he entered the Qin army's ambush circle!
"This is your Daqin's Shangqing Dunwei. It is said that he is still a marquis... If you dare to bomb with firearms, I will be the first to chop off his head."

Tolit put the war sword on Dunwei's neck and yelled at Xia Houying.
