Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 612 Zhou Bo's Response (I wish everyone a happy National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival)
At this time, Wang Xiang has led the Wei army to attack Anyi.

However, Wang Xiang frowned, and the progress of the siege was not smooth.

Wei Jun's several attacks were easily repelled by Qin Jun!
Of course, this is mainly because Wang Xiang thinks that Anyi is empty, and there should be only a small group of Qin troops who attacked Anyi, and the number should not be too many.

But in fact, after arriving in Anyi, several consecutive attacks made Wang Xiang understand that there were definitely not a few Qin troops in Anyi City.

At least over [-] people.

A Qin army of about [-] people crossed the river silently, marched all the way without being exposed, and finally captured the weakly defended Anyi in one fell swoop, which made Wang Xiang feel a little shudder when he thought about it.

It's just that such a thought only flashed in Wang Xiang's mind.

For him, the most important thing right now is to take back Anyi.

Anyi is the foundation of Wei State, without Anyi, Wei Jun will never be protected.

And he, Wang Xiang, also made a personal promise in front of Wei Bao that he would take back Anyi in the shortest possible time.

However, his previous prediction was wrong. He believed that the number of the Qin army was not large. Therefore, he only brought a part of the troops to feel Anyi first, while the other Wei soldiers were led by Wei Bao himself, and came to Anyi later. Yap.

Moreover, due to the haste of walking, all the heavy siege equipment was not carried, which directly caused the Wei army to attack the city of Anyi, which was greatly restricted, and many siege methods could not be used.

It would be nothing if the number of the Qin army was small, but the current number of the Qin army far exceeds the estimate, and this has become a huge problem.

Of course, the Qin army also had the same problem, and the equipment for defending the city was quite scarce.

In order to advance covertly and reach Anyi as quickly as possible, and at the same time not let the Wei army notice in the process, with preparations, therefore, the [-] Qin troops under Zhou Bo's command marched lightly, and none of them carried anything. Baggage and the like.

After arriving in Anyi, just after capturing Anyi, before he had time to catch his breath, Wang Xiang led his army to come.

It can be said that the Qin army was inherently deficient in defending the city. If the Wei army came to attack this time and was well-prepared, it would be difficult for the Qin army to defend Anyi, to be honest!
But Zhou Bo also understood that he didn't need to stick to Anyi for a long time, he was just buying some time for Han Xin.

It is precisely because of this plan that this time, even the rations for the Qin army under his command are only enough for ten days.

Beyond this time, the Qin army can be said to have reached the point where it is about to collapse without a fight.

After all, it is extremely rare to have an army that chooses to fight tenaciously without any supplies, any logistical support, and is facing a crisis of food shortage.

At least in Fusu's memory, it seems that only the later generation's army that created a miracle, fought seventeen camps in a row in a foreign country, was able to do it.

But today's Qin Jun still has a long way to go if he wants to reach this point.

"I don't know when the general will arrive?" Zhou Bo's eyes were solemn, and he looked in the direction of Linjin, thinking deeply.

If the Linjin war progressed quickly, then naturally, Han Xin would come to the rescue one minute in the morning, but if the Linjin war procrastinated, then his Qin army would go deep alone and would be eaten by the Wei army.

"I hope the commander-in-chief chosen by the king is more reliable!" Zhou Bo also comforted himself in his heart.

To be honest, it was not easy for Zhou Bo to be where he is today, and the biggest help came from Fusu.

Fusu's gaze never missed it, which obviously became Zhou Bo's comforting words now.

"General, the Wei army is attacking again." A soldier stood in front of Zhou Bo and reported.

"General Qi, our army has insufficient arrows."

Hearing this sentence, Zhou Bo's eyebrows twitched. Actually, this is not good news.

In the previous waves of Wei army's attack, before attacking the city, the Qin army used arrows to dampen its edge, which greatly relieved the pressure.

But this also brought about a problem, that is, if the arrow is shot, it cannot be recovered.

It can't be that the Wei army is attacking the city, and the city gate is opened here, and they ran out to pick up the arrows. If they saw this situation, the generals of the Wei army would probably die of laughter.

"Let's go down first, I'm handsome to figure out a way." Zhou Bo said with firm eyes and a deadpan face.

In fact, there was no good solution in Zhou Bo's mind at the moment, but if such emotions flowed into the army, it would inevitably lower the morale of the army and even cause panic.

This was really a huge blow to the Qin army at this time, even more violent than that of the Wei army.

Only by showing a calm look can this situation be temporarily avoided.

After the siege battle, Zhou Bo was very worried, because just now, he knew that the Wei army had pulled out the siege ladders and other siege equipment.

Whether it was built temporarily by Wei Jun or transferred from the rear by Wei Jun, it all shows that the strength of Wei Jun is rapidly strengthening.

If there is no change in the Qin army, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Anyi Qin army will be unable to defend it!

Zhou Bo had a few thoughts in his mind, and at this time Mixi had already come to Zhou Bo's side.

Zhou Bo said slowly: "Mixi, I just read it. The Wei army has already used the siege ladder, and our army currently lacks defense equipment, so it is difficult to deal with it."

"I mean to demolish the nearby houses and move all the demolished wood and stones to the top of the city for the purpose of defending the city."

"What?" A look of shock appeared on Mi Xi's face.

"General, the army strictly orders the destruction of civilian houses, and they will be executed." Mi Xi also emphasized this military rule again.

"Now that things are going on, what else can I do?" Zhou Bo also showed determination on his face, and said, "If I don't demolish the houses, how can I keep Anyi?"

"Do as I say."

"Also, let me release all the prisoners in the cells in the city, distribute a weapon to each of them, and tell them that after guarding the city, all their crimes will be forgiven!"

"If you don't want to come, you will be executed on the spot." Zhou Bo also showed a ruthless look on his face.

Obviously, Wei Jun's persecution at this time put great pressure on Zhou Bo, and Zhou Bo also made great changes under such pressure.

Mi Xi looked at Zhou Bo in a daze, he had never seen Zhou Bo with such an expression.

"What are you still doing? Why don't you hurry up and do it?" Zhou Bo couldn't help urging.

"Tell those people that when the war is over, I will build the demolished houses for them with my own hands."
