As Huan Jue shouted "climb first", the soldiers of the Qin army below the city and on top of Yunti also responded with shouts of "climb first" and climbed even more excitedly.
After Huan Ye cut down another Korean soldier who threw a log at him with one sword, he did not rush towards the enemy, but stayed at the top of the city where he had set up a ladder to give Pao Ze behind him a chance to climb the city.
It’s not that Huan Jue is so noble, but he is just trying to survive!
Huan Jue was brave and brave, and as an army general, he dared to charge to the top of the city, but he was not a fool.
The city is dangerous, and those who climb first may seem glorious, but they are also the ones who are most likely to be truly glorious.
Being alone in a city full of enemies will naturally become the enemy's main attack target. Therefore, in order to increase his hope of survival, Huan Jue must find enough helpers for himself.
Thanks to Huan Jue's protection, Qin soldiers were constantly rushing up to the top of the city from the ladder where he rushed to the top of the city. As more and more Qin soldiers came up from the top of the city, more and more soldiers came up. The more soldiers there were, the more Korean troops naturally flocked here. The resistance encountered by Qin soldiers in other places was also dispersed, and gradually many people climbed onto the city.
Seeing that there were more than a hundred Qin soldiers on the city, Huan Jue breathed a sigh of relief, leaned on Qin Jian, took a few deep breaths, and looked at his breastplate.
The fight just now not only consumed a lot of his energy, but was also focused on by the Korean army's crossbowmen. There were four arrows stuck in the breastplate and two more stuck in the back. In addition, he was thrown down while climbing. The rolling log hit the iron shield.
The rolling log that fell from a height was highly blessed and was extremely heavy. It hit hard. Although it was protected by an iron shield, it still caused some internal injuries. Huan Yan's body was filled with blood and blood, and his throat was slightly sweet. He almost couldn't help it. Spit out a mouthful of blood.
After holding back the smell of blood that did not come out of his mouth, several of Huan Jue's personal guards also climbed up and protected Huan Jue, giving him a chance to rest.
These people are loyal servants who have served the Huan family in Hedong for generations, and are also Huanjue's family generals. Naturally, they are loyal to protect their lord. The nine people formed a formation to protect Huanjue in the middle, always paying attention to the cold arrows and arrows coming from their own direction. enemy.
After being escorted by his personal guards, Huan Ye, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly felt his hair stand on end, and the blood in his body seemed to be frozen and flowing more slowly.
Huan Jue recalled that when he was a child, he went hunting with his grandfather in the mountains. As a result, he was too playful and rushed into the mountains, chasing a hare deep into the forest. He was alone and was stared at by a tiger.
Huanjue will never forget the feeling of being targeted by a tiger.
At this moment, Huan Jue felt as if he had returned to the forest where he was a child, and a fierce tiger was staring at him from nowhere.
and!
That tiger is ready to go!
Suddenly!
Huan Ye felt a stinging pain on his cheek, and a sound of breaking through the air came from his right front. It was an ice-blue long sword that exuded murderous aura and had a hint of evil aura, but its shape was extremely weird. , like a comb?
A tall figure appeared in Huan Yan's sight, wearing a black brocade robe inlaid with black cloud patterns. The most eye-catching thing was the distinctive short silver hair and the pair of eyes that were colder than ice and snow. s eyes.
Those eyes looked directly at him, and Huan Yan was sure that the oppressive feeling that made him feel as if he was being targeted by a tiger came from this person!
This figure followed the long sword that was shooting straight at Huan Jue and struck in the air. His right hand rested on the hilt of the sword in the air, providing internal force as the driving force for the long sword that was flying towards him.
Huan Jue had just raised the iron shield in his left hand and the Qin sword in his right hand, trying to block the sword with his guards, when a sudden shout came from his ears.
"Get away!"
Huan Ye could tell that it was Zhang Ji's voice, and he couldn't think too much about it at the moment.
What he has only practiced is the art of military warfare. In terms of strength, he is actually only equivalent to a second-rate warrior. But with his brave fighting style, he can often display strength close to the first-rate level.
But Zhang Ji is a master!
Subconsciously, Huan Yan chose to believe Zhang Ji's words, but after all, Huan Yan's movements could not keep up with his consciousness. He could only watch the flying sword pass by. Although he was not directly touched by the flying sword, The sharp sword energy wrapped around Feijian cut through the fine armor without any hindrance, leaving a hideous wound on Huan Yan's waist.
Huan Jue, who suffered a heavy blow, did not relax his vigilance, and Wei Zhuang did not give up either. The moment Wei Zhuang landed, the shark-tooth sword in his hand slashed hard again.
Huan Jue endured the severe pain and rolled on the ground, using the sword that was enough to cut through the brick wall. However, Wei Zhuang's sword power disappeared and he continued to swing the second sword.
The second sword swept across and went straight to Huan Jue's chest!
Ding!
A crisp sound of gold and iron intersecting reached Huan Ye's ears. The horizontal slash of the sword that he had no strength to avoid was blocked by a long black sword.
The sword energy and murderous intent contained in the shark-tooth sword exploded instantly after hitting the ink-colored long sword, but it did not affect the people around it at all, but was absorbed by the ink-colored long sword.
"This technique of flying a sword with a hundred steps and turning across all directions does not disgrace the name of the descendant of Guigu."
Zhang Ji, dressed in black armor, stood in front of Huan Jue. The long sword named Zhan Lu was like a sea-fixing needle. Not only did it not make people feel fierce, but it made Huan Jue feel a little at ease.
"It's just Wei Zhuang, when did you become so unscrupulous, a great master sneak attack on a second-rate general?"
Wei Zhuang slowly withdrew his shark-tooth sword and looked directly at Zhang Ji, his cold eyes seemingly without any emotion.
"So what about a sneak attack? What about a head-on fight?"
"All dead people are the same, so why care about the method of death?" Those cold eyes glanced at the blood-stained Huan Yan behind the fuselage, and said coldly, "The most direct method is the most effective! And the most effective method is the most direct method. The effective method is the right one!”
After saying that, Wei Zhuang suddenly shot backwards, and a burst of sound broke through the air. At some point, a rain of arrows was about to fall in the sky, covering the city where Zhang Ji and Huan Jue were, completely They didn't care that there were many Korean soldiers around them.
"enough!"
Zhang Jiduan shouted, and the ink-colored inner energy in his body surged out like sea water, instantly dyeing the sky covered by the arrow rain ink-colored.
The next moment, all the arrows in mid-air exploded instantly, leaving only a pile of wood chips and iron chips falling from the sky, causing no harm at all.
"Huanjue, please retreat with your sons."
Zhang Ji looked directly at Wei Zhuang and said to the people behind him.
A Qin soldier had a look of reluctance on his face, but he recalled the rain of arrows that had just blocked the sky, and he felt afraid. Moreover, the military orders were so strong that they couldn't help but retreat.
Wei Zhuang did not launch another attack, and the elite Korean army standing under Xinzheng City did not fire another rain of arrows. As the Qin soldiers all retreated, the eyes of all the Korean soldiers were focused on Zhang Ji.
However, no one launched an attack. Zhang Ji's hand just now shocked the group of Korean soldiers who were full of fighting spirit, but among them, the Korean soldiers who had just been covered by the wave of arrows didn't seem to care about Wei Zhuang at all. His actions just now still maintained his majestic fighting spirit.
Wei Zhuang looked at Zhang Ji who was alone, and felt restless in his heart, but he was still suppressed.
Although he had spoken sharply just now and seemed not to care about Zhang Ji's words at all, he still had some scruples after all.
Although he had spoken sharply just now and seemed not to care about Zhang Ji's words at all, he still had some scruples after all.
After sacrificing Han Wangcheng, the Korean soldiers in Xinzheng City seemed to be hypnotized, and a concept was forced into their minds, that is, to defend the country to the death.
Everyone's physical fitness also seemed to have improved. Wei Zhuang, as the general of South Korea, even found his own way overnight and broke through to the master level.
But if compared to the number of masters, the Qin army is far superior to the Korean army.
The lethality of the masters is too terrifying on the battlefield. If the masters are really allowed to do whatever they want, the damage to the soldiers will be too serious.
Moreover, various countries have also set rules that do not allow masters to bully the weak at will. Strictly speaking, it is Wei Zhuang who is the first to use his dignity as a master, and it is Wei Zhuang who is the first to bully Huanjue, a second-rate master.
Zhang Ji has not yet made any move to directly send a net to forcibly kill the Korean general. If Wei Zhuang breaks the rules and angers Zhang Ji, there is no way that Zhang Ji will take any crazy revenge regardless of the consequences.
Zhang Ji now abides by the rules of war between military strategists and does not use assassins to assassinate the generals of the warring parties.
Just like this world does not allow assassinating the king and killing the driver for no reason, the rules are actually very fragile, and Qin State and Luo Wang have the power to easily break this rule.
But neither Qin nor Luo Wang were willing to bear the consequences of breaking the rules.
After all, the reason why everyone can still abide by the rules is that even if there are people who break the rules, they still abide by the rules. If Qin and Luo Wang break the rules, then others will no longer abide by the rules.
At that time, the kings of the world will face endless assassinations.
The same goes for attacking and killing the enemy general. Ji Wuye did it very secretly back then. Many people didn't know that the Chu army general did not die of a sudden illness but was poisoned and assassinated by Ji Wuye's retainer.
If Zhang Ji openly breaks the rules, then from now on, the military leaders will no longer be safe. Even going to the toilet and sleeping with their wives and concubines will not be without the protection of their personal guards.
Just as everyone in the world knows that oaths can be broken, will oaths really cause thunder to strike?
of course not!
But people still value their oaths and regard them as the most beneficial constraints and will never violate them.
And it wasn't until a certain King Sima Xuan of later generations farted on Luo Shui that the oath gradually became more unreliable, and people's hearts became more and more treacherous. The oath changed from a constraint to a treacherous tool that could be used to gain trust. .
This is the harm caused by breaking the rules for thousands of years.
After getting off the city, Zhang Jidang immediately ordered the troops to retreat, and then immediately called two military doctors who served him selected by Ying Zheng from the palace to diagnose and treat Huan Jue.
Huan Jue's injuries were not serious. He had suffered a lot of internal injuries during the siege, and the damage from Wei Zhuang's sword was quite serious.
Fortunately, he dodged in time and at least cut open the skin and flesh between the waist and abdomen without damaging the bones and internal organs. He could rest for a while and there would be no sequelae.
However, Huanjue's injuries and the tenacity of the Korean army had a certain impact on the morale of the Qin army.
Yes, who would have thought that South Korea, which was expected to be extremely weak, would suddenly fight as hard as if it had been drugged?
Before the expedition, Zhang Ji summoned the generals in the commander's tent to deduce the battle against Korea. Wang Yan, Meng Ao, Yang Duanhe, Meng Wu and others participated in the deduction, but the conclusion they reached was that …
The land is riddled with holes, the people are in pieces, the temples are fighting, the military strength is about 100,000, and the veterans are exhausted. How can South Korea stand up to a war like this?
After looking through South Korea, there are only two things that catch my eye: soft and hard.
Hard ones are stereotyped things.
With the royal treasury hoarding by Han Wangan and the wealth and grain that Wei Zhuang moved from various cities to Xinzheng during these days, a rough estimate is that it can really be enough for the people of Xinzheng to eat horse chews for three years.
Weakness is the traditional nature of people's hearts.
The Koreans were once fierce and good at fighting, and their weapons were well-made. They were known as the "Strong Koreans" for their many bloody battles. If the hearts and minds of the Korean people are united and they are determined to fight to the death, coupled with the support of food and property, the destruction of Korea will undoubtedly be a fierce battle. However, this can only be a possibility when South Korea's top and bottom leaders and internal and external parties work together. In today's South Korea, the temples are dirty and the people are distracted. Wei Zhuang issued an order to summon the countrymen to join the army for defense, but few people listened to the order.
What is a Chinese?
The people of the country are the people who live in the capital of the country.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, Chinese people were a term of identity for the people relative to the slave class. By the time of the Warring States Period, when slavery was abolished, the title of country people was greatly generalized, and the people of a country were collectively called country people. However, in the Six Kingdoms of Shandong, especially in a country like Korea where aristocratic clans are powerful, when speaking of Chinese people, what they actually refer to is the aristocratic clans of craftsmen, merchants, merchants, and scholars living in the capital.
Of course, this also includes some wealthy farmers living in the capital. Each of these families has their own source of livelihood. Except for some children who are aspiring to meritorious service and join the army, most of them have inherited the traditional family livelihood or special skills early on, and very few join the army.
In addition, South Korea has been weak for many years and has suffered too many military defeats, making it even more rare for Koreans to join the army. This time the army was approaching the city and the national crisis was imminent. The people of Xinzheng were trapped in the city. They were forced to accept the call by the soldiers under Wei Zhuang. More than 50,000 people were forcibly recruited into the army. Otherwise, who would be willing to join the Korean army to resist the Qin army at this time?
How can South Korea inspire the ruling and opposition parties to fight to the death?
Everyone made repeated deductions and calculations, and only came to one conclusion: There was a war in South Korea, but there was no vicious war.
However, the Korean army's tenacity and fighting spirit during the first day of siege really affected the self-confidence of these proud soldiers who had high morale and wanted to defeat them in one battle.
Unlike the generals who were thinking about any plan to break the city, Zhang Ji recalled the fanatical Korean soldiers on top of the city just now.
He always felt a little weird.
Wei Zhuang would lead the troops, which was not surprising to him.
Although the contemporary Zonghengs like Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang are a little unprofessional, they have forgotten about the art of war, strategy and governance, and their minds are full of martial arts and swords, but this does not mean that they do not know how to do it, but compared to other specialties, They are more interested in swords.
Just like Zhang Yi, who is also good at leading troops, he prefers to use his talents in eloquence and governance.
Moreover, in the original world, Wei Zhuang was able to raise a large rebel army in Xinzheng after Qin destroyed South Korea, and held it for three months under the siege of 100,000 Qin troops, until he secretly rebelled against Qin Mi Qi went to Xinzheng to conspire with Wei Zhuang, and reached a deal with Wei Zhuang so that Wei Zhuang voluntarily withdrew from Xinzheng City and gave Mi Qi the credit for recovering Xinzheng.
But it's a little strange that Wei Zhuang suddenly broke through to the master realm.
With Wei Zhuang's accumulation and character, it would take at least several years to break through to the master level, and he would have to go through some hardships and sharpen his mind.
And the group of Korean soldiers who stood guard at the top of the city were not at all as low in fighting spirit as described in the intelligence obtained before the war, and they were forced to respond. Moreover, the senses they gave Zhang Ji were not so much about defending the country with fearlessness. A dead warrior, rather like a fanatical believer.
