Chapter 2079: Zhang Han VS Fu Jian
On Jieshi Road, Zhang Han led three thousand troops to station here, and it took only three days to build a strong stronghold.
Not long after Zhang Han's stronghold was built, Fu Jian's 70,000 troops came one after another.
The geographical location of the Jieshi Road is too important. It is the only road from western Liaoning to Lulong. If the camp in front of him is not broken, Fu Jian will not be able to go to Lulong. He can cooperate with Huang Taiji to attack from both sides and seize the stronger Lulong. Longsai.
Therefore, after taking a short rest, Fu Jian immediately launched a fierce attack without waiting for the siege equipment from the rear to arrive.
In his opinion, although the terrain of Jieshi Road is steep and not even inferior to Lulong, after all, the enemy only has one stronghold.
Even if one's own military advantage cannot be used due to the terrain, it is absolutely impossible to block one's 70,000-strong army with just one stronghold.
In addition, the Qin army traveled a long distance and would certainly not carry large defensive equipment, and the defense supplies would definitely be insufficient, and they would not be able to withstand it for long.
Fu Jian's guess was absolutely correct. In order to travel lightly, Xuanyuan did not bring any defensive equipment on this trip, and there was not much defensive material. But without these things, it did not mean that the war would not be possible.
Zhang Han discovered that the Jieshi Road was rich in wood and stone resources before setting up the camp, so he sent 300 soldiers to cut down trees, carry stones, and use local materials to make rolling stones and logs for defense.
In addition, a large amount of dead grass and rattan were also collected with the intention of making an instant fireball.
After three consecutive days of chopping, transporting and moving to the left, Zhang Han accumulated a lot of defense 'materials', which he immediately used in the war, and continued to use local materials while consuming them.
During the next two days of the attack, Fu Jian tried his best, even beating drums to boost morale. However, he still failed to break through the Qin army's camp and suffered casualties of two thousand soldiers.
After two days of fierce attack, Fu Jian found that the Qin army's defensive supplies seemed to be inexhaustible. This made him extremely confused and did not understand where these supplies came from.
After Lu Polou's reminder, Fu Jian finally realized that the Qin army's defensive materials were all stone rolls, logs and grass balls, and these things were plentiful on Jieshi Road, so they could be used locally.
When he realized that the Qin army could make defensive supplies from local materials, Fu Nuoguo stopped the attack and waited for the siege equipment from the rear to be transported before attacking, but did not want to wait for Nurhaci's order first.
Nurhachi told Fu Jian in Fei Ge Chuan that he would retake Luronsai regardless of casualties. This also made Fu Jian aware of the critical situation in Youbeiping, but he still did not continue the attack, but chose to wait for equipment from behind.
Fu Jian did not wait long. Just one day later, a large number of equipment was transported from Feiru to Jieshi Road. This was the real test that Zhang Han faced.
After the siege equipment arrived, Fu Jian launched another fierce attack, and this time regardless of casualties and at all costs, the Qing army launched the most violent offensive.
Fu Jian's offensive regardless of casualties put great pressure on Zhang Han, but he still relied on his command ability to defend the Jieshi camp for ten days.
Ten days later, the Jieshi camp had changed beyond recognition and was in danger of being breached at any time. The three thousand defenders suffered even more casualties of one thousand two hundred.
"General Zhang, Fu Jian's offensive is too fierce, regardless of casualties. The soldiers really can't hold it anymore." Gongsun He yelled through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, a look of struggle flashed in Zhang Han's eyes, and then he shouted: "You must hold on even if you can't hold on. General Xuanyuan's order is to hold on to the Jieshi Road for a month. Now half a month has not come yet. How can we do this?" Just give up?"
"But……"
Gongsun He opened his mouth, but when the words came to his lips, he still didn't say them out.
What Gongsun Xuanyuan said about holding on for a month was a month under normal attack intensity, but now the Manchu Qing Dynasty does not count casualties at all. In this case, let alone an army of three thousand, even five thousand cannot hold it for a month.
Gongsun He still wanted to persuade him, but Zhang Han didn't give him a chance to speak. He decisively picked up his sword and shouted: "Soldiers, General Xuanyuan's reinforcements are coming soon. Hold on."
After saying this, Zhang Han, the guard general, gave up his command, waved his weapon and rushed forward in person to fight with the soldiers.
[Ding dong, Zhang Han's skill 'Strong Army' is activated...
Strengthen the army: use a strong voice to show off your power and strengthen our army’s power. (Different people have different effects.)
Effect 1: When leading an army alone and in a field battle or defensive battle, the commander will gain +2, the marching speed will be greatly increased, and the morale of the entire army will partially increase.
Effect 2: When personally participating in the battle, one's own force is +3, the force of the whole army is +1, and the morale of the whole army is greatly improved. 】
[Ding dong, Zhang Han's skill 'Strengthening the Army' effect 2 is activated, his own force +3, and the whole army's force +1.
Zhang Han's basic strength is 100 (+1), Sword King +3, and his current strength has increased to 106.
Gongsun He's basic strength is 96 (+1), Sword King +3, and his current strength has increased to 100. 】
Zhou Yafu also has the skill "Strong Army", but Zhou Yafu's "Strong Army" is completely different from Zhang Han's.
Zhou Yafu's "Strengthening the Army" has three levels of effects, the improvement of the commander is divided into cavalry and infantry, while Zhang Han's "Strengthening the Army" only has two levels, and it does not distinguish between cavalry and infantry, and it also has the effect of increasing the overall army.
Therefore, in general, Zhang Han's 'strong army' is superior to Zhou Yafu's.
Gongsun He, who was already injured, gritted his teeth when he saw that Zhang Han had gone into battle in person, then picked up his big knife full of gaps and rushed forward following Zhang Han's pace.
"Tatars, I will fight with you."
The morale of the Qin army had gradually declined, but Zhang Han's personal participation in the battle instantly boosted morale. Coupled with the increase in his skill 'Strengthening the Army', the Qin army's soldiers were more powerful than before, and they roared and fought with the Qing army. Fight.
A bloody battle began.
"General, look, the Qin army guard has personally gone into battle to kill the enemy."
Fu Jian suddenly became energetic. After taking a closer look, he laughed and said: "The Qin army is about to be unable to hold on anymore. Send the order quickly and ask the soldiers to work harder. Kill the Qin general. He will be promoted to the third level and receive a reward of one thousand." .”
"twitter."
Fu Jian did not care about the fact that the Qin army's combat power had become stronger. Instead, he believed that the Qin army had run out of gas and the current outbreak was just a flashback, but he did not expect that this flashback would be so full.
One day later, the Qing army still failed to capture Jieshi Camp. Instead, it suffered a thousand casualties. In addition, three generals died in Zhang Han's hands.
Two days later, the Jieshi camp was still not captured, and four more Qing generals died in the hands of Zhang Han. However, Qin general Gongsun He was also seriously injured and was killed by Qing general Lu Guang.
