C403 Meat grinder (I)

In fact, the allied army of the Great Prairie was faster than Wang Meng had imagined. The twelve defensive cities surrounding Chang An had no effect at all. Murong Ke proposed to the Allied Commander-in-Chief Ziche Lu: "The troops and horses in the Chang An Guards are too small, they can't play a role in holding back our troops. Since we have to guard the city, we have no way of dealing with them, and similarly, if we split one of them and surround them without attacking them, they wouldn't dare to leave the city to attack us. No one in the field is a match for the seven hundred thousand soldiers of the Great Prairie. "

Wang Meng had already gathered the citizens of the surrounding villages and towns in the area of Chang'an into the Chang'an City. Currently, there were close to a million people in the Chang'an City, other than the 100,000 Guard that were just formed, there were still another 70 to 80 thousand people that could be pulled out of the Guard at any time. This was the advantage of numbers. Wang Meng was standing on the tower of the Jingyang Sect, using his binoculars to look at the allied army of the prairie outside the city.

A dense crowd of people's heads moved as far as the eye could see. All kinds of flags were fluttering in the wind. There were totems of cattle, pigs, sheep, animals, as well as totems of tigers, leopards, wolves and beasts. Weapons and clothing were even more varied. Although there were seven hundred thousand enemies, Wang Meng didn't feel much pressure in his heart. Although the allied army had more people, but there were disadvantages in everything they did. Not everyone of them was Han Xin, and seven hundred thousand soldiers under their command was a big problem. Wang Meng was confident that he could command more than a hundred or two hundred thousand people, but if there were too many of them, he would not be able to manage them. Besides, the allied army was only united for a short time. As the instinct of the human race, who would selflessly take the lead? Attacking a city, especially a strong one like Chang'an, would consume a lot of manpower.

However, there was really someone who could be impartial and take the lead. It could be said that Wang Meng was very familiar with the person at the front, and was Xie Fei's old rival, Murong Han. Murong Han was a true man of the prairie, the type who would always take revenge when there was enmity. Back then, Xie Fei's bloody slaughter had almost annihilated the entire Murong Fei. How could he not avenge such a deep grudge?

Murong Han took out his curved blade, and the bright sunlight shone onto Murong Han's body. A divine halo seemed to appear behind his head, as Murong Han waved the curved blade in his hand and said to the generals beside him, "Warriors with low statuses, have you all forgotten the rami cordis's Blood Slaughter? Did you forget the people who died under the Dragon City and Phellodendron? "

Surprisingly, the surrounding Xianbei member was completely silent. However, from their red eyes, one could see a strong killing intent and fighting spirit. Under Murong Han's attentive gaze, everyone was unconsciously grabbing onto the handle of their blades. Other than the sneezing sounds of the war horses, only the sound of breathing could be heard on the battlefield.

Murong Han gritted his teeth and said: "It is the Qin who massacred our close to two million clansmen, how can we not avenge this sea of blood?"

"Revenge."

"Kill the Qin."

Finally, thirty thousand Murong Tribe cavalry soldiers roared out in anger, their faces revealing a sinister look.

After Murong Han's order to attack the city, the Xianbei member began to move. Thousands of people jumped off their horses and rushed to the walls of the Chang'an City with ladders in their hands.

The nomadic peoples were not good at attacking cities, but the people of the Murong Tribe had rich experience in attacking cities, their strategy was simple, the riders would shoot at the sky from behind, to suppress the defending army on the city wall, and then use the walking apoplexy to carry the ladders up the city wall to participate in the close combat. After being defeated and retreating from the Liaodong, Mu Rong Jun and her army had taken over twenty cities in succession, all because of this simple method.

But was the city of Three Han still considered to be a city? The surrounding area of the city was only a few miles, while the city wall was only thirty feet high, which was about the same as the Central Plains' village. The moat in front of the Vermillion Bird Gate was over a hundred meters wide, which was about sixty-eight meters wide. This distance was a chasm that Murong Han was unable to cross. Many of the fresh soldiers placed the ladders across the moat, then formed a series of front bridges and began to attack the city walls.

At the same time, without even needing Wang Meng's order, the Qin soldiers who was guarding Zhang An used her crossbow to call over the enemies that were attacking the city. The Qin crossbow could be said to be a silly type of crossbow. As long as one aimed at the enemy, even those who didn't know how to shoot, they could learn how to shoot within a few minutes.

Arrows rained down like a violent storm on Murong Jun's shield. The shield made of ironwood was quickly filled with crossbow bolts. Of course, there were some soldiers who weren't so lucky to be shot to death by those crossbow arrows.

At the same time, the Murong cavalrymen behind them started to move their warhorses, charging forward while firing arrows at the defenders on the city walls. Both sides suffered mutual casualties.

After a fierce battle for a day, the allied army of the prairie had left more than ten thousand corpses behind. The number of wounded were innumerable, and the Qin Army guarding the Chang An had lost more than two thousand people.

However, on the afternoon of the third day after the departure, they were completely exhausted. The weather in May was extremely hot, especially for the soldiers who were rushing, which made the army even more exhausted, especially many of the soldiers whose crotches had been scuffed so badly by the saddle.

When Xie Fei led his troops into the Sublime Bull Mountain Range, Xie Fei ordered the troops to slow down. Xie Fei ordered all the soldiers to only travel about two hundred Li per day, leaving them to rest.

Jia Shun saw that Xie Fei had slowed down his pace, and became a little anxious, "Your Majesty, if we march like this, we will travel for at least five more days than planned. When that happens, I'm afraid Chang An will fall? "

Xie Fei revealed a strange expression that no one noticed. Then, he suddenly asked, "Old Jia, are you worried about Changan, or are you worried about General Luan Wei?"

"Ah?" Oh! This lowly general … "This lowly one is worried …" Jia Shun mumbled for a long time without being able to say anything.

Xie Fei sighed again, "No matter how fast you are, even if we reach Chang An now, we still wouldn't be able to solve the problem."

had already reacted, knowing that Xie Fei was just teasing him. Xie Fei said: "The enemy has seven hundred thousand cavalrymen, we are not gods, so we can use these thirty thousand cavalrymen to rashly attack the enemy's camp, and might not be able to return. We are not willing to take the risk, we can only use our greatest strength at the most critical moment."

"When the army moves, the food is the most important. The amount of food consumed by the 700,000 strong army is also a huge figure. Could it be that the emperor is preparing to explore the enemy's location and use our cavalry to raid their grain depot?" Burn their food? " Shi Yue spoke up at this moment.

Xie Fei shook his head: "As far as I know, the enemy's seven hundred thousand strong army does not have any food at all.

"There is no food supply. "Then what do they eat?" Jia Shun said in shock.

Xie Fei said: "Everyone, you are no match for me.

This time, the enemy went south and created a new land from the Wei River to the Yellow River. In this area, which spanned thousands of miles and was several hundred miles wide, all of the people were raided by the allied army of the prairie. They gathered the people here, first killing the weak and old, then turning them into jerky. The allied army called these Han people two-legged sheep, which was also the food of their seven hundred thousand strong army. As for the young and strong males, they were even worse off as they were driven around like sheep and cattle by the Coalition Soldiers. As for the females, they were provided to the soldiers for adultery at night, if they tortured themselves to death, they would also become jerky, "said Xie Fei as he clenched his fists so tightly that his joints turned white. Xie Fei continued: "So what if we burned the food? These beasts are not as strong as us, they simply do not eat the food, but eat humans."

Ba Teer was speechless for a long time. He had always loved to kill prisoners during wars with the Western Regions, but when he heard that the Alliance Army could eat people, he was so frightened that his face turned pale. Even though Ba Teer was ruthless, how could he be angry at this point? Ba Teer said word by word, "Truly inhumane.

Xie Fei said to Ba Teer. "Do you know about the wolves on the grassland?"

Ba Teer replied, "I know. Wolves are fierce and cunning, and sometimes cunning tigers are also afraid of them. "

Xie Fei said: "Right now, we are just going to turn into wolves. We will hide in the shadows and wait for the right opportunity to make our move, as long as we attack a few times consecutively, we will completely prevent the allied army from being able to concentrate on attacking the city. I just want to let those people who dared to go against me, Xie Fei, know that.

In the early morning of the next day, the allied army of the prairie set up twelve assault teams around the walls of the Chang'an City. This time, unlike the previous day, the allied army of the prairie had actually used a large number of siege weapons, such as arrow towers, catapults, and city battering sledgehammers. The weapons of the Qin State were all standard equipment, it could be said that no matter which city it was, the defensive items would all be the same, but they were somewhat different. He could see that the siege equipment below the city was not the Qin State's equipment. In other words, this was not captured by the allied forces from the conquered city, nor was it captured. Furthermore, the nomadic peoples on the prairie did not know how to manufacture it, which meant that there was definitely someone secretly supporting them.

The allied army of the prairie shouted and rushed forward like a swarm of bees. In front of them was a gigantic wooden shield, which slowly moved forward. Facing the crossbow of the Qin Army, who had the wooden shield in front of him, it was a little powerless. What was even more terrifying was the hundreds of throwing machines in the Alliance Army. Although Qin Army's firing range was much longer and the throwing machines were also a bit farther than the Alliance Army's throwing machines, they still could not withstand the fierce bombardment of the throwing machines.

Huge basin-like rocks flew in the air, causing unavoidable casualties in Qin Army. In front of those huge rocks that weighed more than a hundred kilograms, the bright armor that Qin Army relied on to protect her life was like paper, unable to withstand a single blow.

Wang Meng was helpless. If the allied army were to occupy the city walls, their advantage would no longer exist. Wang Meng could only order his soldiers to fight to the death without retreating. Just then, the bed crossbow s arranged on the walls of the Qin Army began to display their might. The bed crossbow s were powerful, the huge arrows were like a snake spear, their range was also far, the bed crossbow arrows that Qin Army had shot down were like rain, blood immediately blossomed, it was hard to estimate how many people the allied army had lost. However, the allied army had seven hundred thousand people. It was impossible for the allied army to stop in its tracks with such little casualties.

Finally, after paying a huge price for their deaths, the allied army climbed up the walls of the Chang'an City.

Behind the Rushing City Army, there were thousands of archers shooting arrows at the city walls. Although the effect of their arrows was not perfect, it still caused some casualties for the Qin Army.

At this moment, the city wall was like a giant meat grinder opening its bloody mouth, instantly devouring the lives of the soldiers from both sides.
