"How many troops do we have left?"
After dealing with several ministers who came from Yuezhi, King Wusun sat on the throne, frowning and asking.
He didn't believe that Da Qin's army had such strength before.
But as waves of armies were wiped out, and now the Yuezhi Royal City was also captured, even if he didn't want to believe it, he couldn't believe it!
"Back to the king, our Wusun can mobilize up to 50,000 soldiers and horses!"
General Wusun bowed respectfully and answered.
"fifty thousand……?"
King Wusun's face became even more ugly, and he said in a deep voice: "If it is according to what they said, the Qin army has explosive weapons, these 50,000 people will not be able to help at all!"
"Your Majesty, although 50,000 people cannot fight head-on, if they all get their bows and arrows and stand on the city wall to defend the city, there may still be a glimmer of hope!"
One of the generals thought for a moment and made a suggestion.
"Well! General Dehong is right. According to the news reported by the soldiers, they have two things that can float into the sky. This is why the large-scale explosion happened! If all our soldiers will go to the city wall Go up and turn the royal city into an empty city. Even if they blow open the city gate and attack the city, it will be of no avail!"
"In addition, the Qin army also has a stick that can attack from a long distance, which is equivalent to our bow and arrow. As long as the city wall is filled with sandbags, it can effectively block the attack of this weapon, and our soldiers hide If you shoot arrows at the Qin army behind the sandbags, even if you hit one of a hundred arrows, you can slowly destroy them all!"
After learning that the Yuezhi King's city had been destroyed, Wusun also restrained his previous contempt for the three thousand Qin troops and began to think seriously about how to deal with the Qin army.
Their current strength has been almost exhausted. If they don't make good use of the remaining troops, their fate will be similar to that of the Yueshi!
"Yes! I think this plan is feasible!"
"Yes, I think so too!"
"The general also agrees with this plan...!"
After a while, all the ministers in the hall nodded.
Apart from that, they have no other choice!
We have tried frontal confrontation twice, and it definitely won't work. We can only think of this method, and maybe we can wipe out the Qin army!
"Okay! Let's do it like this, and hurry up and deploy!"
"yes!"
One of the military generals received the order and immediately dispatched troops and generals.
Civil servants are preparing some chores, such as eating, drinking and having sex on the city wall!
"Hey! Damn you! I really don't understand, how can those Qin troops be so powerful? Did the explosion just happen?"
After leaving the main hall, a military general couldn't help but start cursing his mother.
In their impression, only those who do bad things during thunderstorms will be struck by lightning and may cause explosions.
But with the recent drought, there hasn’t been much rain, let alone severe thunderstorms. How could the Qin army cause an explosion?
And it’s a powerful explosion!
"Who knows! It's really evil!"
"I don't know if I, Wusun, can escape this disaster!"
The two generals accompanying him sighed and shook their heads.
"What can't we hide from? We've all huddled on the city wall, and we can't even defeat three thousand Qin troops? Even if they have some terrible sticks, we have sandbags. As long as we hide behind the sandbags, we'll be fine!"
The scolding general was full of confidence.
In the next two days, all Wusun soldiers were transferred to the palace, filled with sandbags, and transported to the city wall.
A lot of stones were prepared to prevent the Qin army from building ladders and climbing up the wall!
All the bows and arrows in the warehouse were moved to the city wall in order to wipe out the Qin army in one fell swoop.
The city wall was built around the palace, and now it was densely packed with people, including all the palace ministers.
"Your Majesty, everything is ready!"
The general handed over his report.
"Well! Let the soldiers cheer up and don't let the Qin army take advantage of the loophole!"
"yes!"
"Send someone out to investigate and see if the Qin army is attacking Wusun!"
"yes!"
The general took the order and quickly sent people to ride out of the city to investigate.
But I waited and waited, but no one came back.
"What's going on? Two hours have passed, why haven't the people who went to inquire come back yet?"
King Wusun paced back and forth on the city wall, losing his patience in waiting.
"Your Majesty, let's wait a little longer. Maybe the people sent out haven't seen the Qin army yet, or maybe the Qin army hasn't come in the direction of my Wusun at all!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, if there is no news, maybe it is the best news!"
The two ministers said with relief.
"Hmm...that makes sense!"
King Wusun really believed this and sat down peacefully. He did not expect that several scouts were already dead at this time.
But not long after he sat down, before the mat was warm, a soldier on the wall exclaimed.
"General, general, look, over there... over there...!"
The soldier stammered, his fingers already starting to tremble.
"What's that over there? You little brat...!"
The general cursed and walked over, raised his hand, and was about to slap the soldier. When he caught a glimpse of the scene in the distance, he was shocked and the movement of his hand had stopped.
Seeing his reaction, other ministers came over curiously and looked into the distance.
I saw smoke and dust billowing from the distance, covering the sky and the sun.
The neighing of the war horses was endless, and the earth also shook violently!
"This...how are these three thousand Qin troops?"
The ministers were immediately confused.
"Look at this Qin army's strength, at least one hundred thousand!"
"What should we do? What should we do? An army of one hundred thousand! Not to mention having weapons from hell, even if it is a frontal attack, we can't defeat it!"
"Your Majesty, otherwise let's run away...!"
Hearing the sound of thousands of horses galloping, several ministers immediately became frightened.
If we say three thousand, if they fight slowly, they still have a chance of winning, but this is a large Qin army, how can they fight?
No matter how you fight, you will definitely die!
"Your Majesty... it's not good, the Qin army is starting to disperse, and it looks like they are going to surround the entire palace!"
Before King Wusun could make a choice, another piece of news came, which directly caused the previous ministers to collapse.
"Now we have no retreat, we can only act according to the previous plan...!"
King Wusun squinted his eyes, gritted his teeth, and issued an order, "Send the order and cheer up all the soldiers. The Qin army must not be allowed to climb the city wall!"
"yes!"
The general took the order and hurried down to deliver the order.
The soldiers who were originally full of confidence were already trembling after seeing the menacing Qin army. They could not even draw the bow with their hands, let alone shoot an arrow.
Even if the general issued an order, it was as if they didn't hear it.
Ten miles, eight miles, five miles, three miles.
The soldiers watched the Qin army getting closer and closer, with their hearts in their throats.
