This was destined to be a war with unequal forces, but fortunately Da Qin had the city and only needed to defend the city.
As for the battle to defend the city, even with an army ten times larger, it would not be able to be put down quickly.
The slave army under the Xiongnu cavalry took the lead in attacking the city. They shouted that they would sacrifice their lives for their masters and cursed the Qin Empire.
Brave and not afraid of death!
They were originally a tribe that was destroyed and suppressed by the Xiongnu. They were plundered slaves. Over time, they were oppressed and their dignity was beaten and trampled by their masters.
However, under this situation, as slaves, they suffered from a mental illness. Under extreme oppression by the Huns, they actually began to be loyal to the perpetrators.
Whoosh whoosh!
Arrows flew towards the city head one after another, densely packed.
Forty thousand cavalrymen bent their bows and drew their strings, and arrows covered the sky.
The suppressed Da Qin soldiers tried their best to resist, but at the same time they did not forget to shoot back.
Crossbows were placed on the city wall one after another, followed by loud noises like landslides and thunderous explosions.
Huge arrows shot through the air and roared into the Huns army.
Each slave and the Huns' cavalry were severely penetrated by arrows, and the shocked Huns soldiers and slave army opened their eyes wide.
"kill!"
However, the Xiongnu general Qequ Huer was closely followed, and the Xiongnu army rushed forward to kill them.
"Our military strength is ten to twenty times that of Jiuquan City, we can definitely take it down!"
Qi Quhuer roared angrily.
The Xiongnu army was also extremely confident. In their opinion, Jiuquan City's desperate resistance could not save the city from being breached.
As time went on, casualties on both sides continued.
The defenders of Jiuquan City were too few compared to the Xiongnu army. Under the attack of the Xiongnu army, countless slave troops surged up the city wall like a tidal wave.
With the death of a famous general, the army defending the city became increasingly scarce!
Poof!
On top of the city wall.
A Qin soldier was wiped on the neck by a Huns cavalry. The enemy gave up their horses, stepped on the corpses of slaves, climbed on a simple cloud chariot, and climbed up the city wall.
The Xiongnu soldiers were short in stature, but extremely strong and powerful. They held long knives or meteor hammers in their hands, and faced the Qin soldiers who were rushing towards them with great ferocity.
Behind them, the Huns soldiers and barbarians took the opportunity to rush up, occupying the city wall and expanding their territory.
Whoosh whoosh!
A powerful crossbow shot out.
The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty waved their big halberds and attacked the Xiongnu army on the top of the city. The two sides fought fiercely.
The Xiongnu army at the rear continued to climb up, expanding the space on the city wall step by step, and even forced the Qin soldiers back step by step.
With roars, soldiers from both sides fell down one by one, their bodies cut into two pieces, their heads cracked...
The death was extremely miserable!
However, even if the Da Qin soldiers fell, they still hugged the enemy desperately and bit the Xiongnu soldiers fiercely.
Blood spattered, blurring everyone's vision, and all that could be seen with the naked eye was scarlet.
"wind!"
"wind!"
"wind!"
The lieutenant of Jiuyuan County put the black dragon flag on the big halberd, waved it to kill the enemy, and sang loudly: "How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you!"
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you!"
The soldiers of Great Qin then responded and sang Wu Yi.
The black armored robes rustled in the strong wind, and were covered with blood, including the blood of the enemy, his comrades, and his own.
"The king raised his troops and repaired my spear."
"I share the same hatred with you!"
They sang generously and fought with the Huns army without any cowardice, only their blood was boiling.
From the fighting in the early morning to noon, more than 3,600 people were killed in the army defending the city, and the Huns also suffered more than 20,000 casualties!
Great Qin soldiers exchanged one for ten!
Now they only have more than 800 people left, while the Huns still have 80,000 people!
The gap between the two sides has reached a terrifying one hundred to one!
It was not even able to defend the entire city wall, and at one time half of the city wall was occupied by the Xiongnu army.
However, while the soldiers of Qin Dynasty were singing hymns, no one got off the city wall and escaped.
Facing the grassland nomads and barbarians who fought against each other and were enemies of each other.
The officers and soldiers of Great Qin are responsible for protecting the safety of the people in the world, how can they back down!
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I am in the same boat as you!"
They stood firm on the city wall, fought bravely, and drove the enemy back.
However, the disparity in military strength is too great!
In the afternoon, the Huns army took a rest and began to attack the city again.
"Damn barbarian!"
On the top of the city, the Jiuyuan County Lieutenant frowned as he looked at the black Huns army.
At this moment, he was covered in injuries, which were simply bandaged, but he never retreated.
As a general of Great Qin and a lieutenant of Jiuyuan County, his responsibilities and obligations do not allow him to take a step back.
The Huns army began to attack the city.
Boom!
The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty lifted up the huge rolling stones and threw them down, knocking down a large number of the Xiongnu soldiers and the slave army.
Falling to the ground, each of the Huns soldiers and slave soldiers howled miserably.
Many people died and were seriously injured, but some survived and continued to climb the city wall.
The golden juice spilled, and the Huns army howled in pain.
Whoosh whoosh!
Not far away, the Huns' cavalry bent their bows and stretched their strings, providing fire support.
The Qin soldiers had to defend and shoot, which suddenly relaxed the pressure on the Xiongnu army climbing the city wall.
After another round of attack and defense by both sides, the Huns army climbed up the city wall again.
The soldiers of Da Qin fought hard to defend the enemy, and the battle to defend the city was in danger.
But at this time!
"The king has raised his army, repaired my spear and halberd, and worked together with me!"
A loud voice sounded.
On the wall behind the Da Qin soldiers, countless civilians rushed up with spears, spears, and sticks.
He joined the ranks of Da Qin soldiers and attacked the Xiongnu army who dared to charge forward without any cowardice.
Poof!
A strong man stabbed the spear in his hand into the chest of the Hun soldier on the opposite side, and blood splashed all over his face.
There was a trace of fear in the eyes of the strong man, but without saying a word, he pulled out the spear from the dead man's body and killed another Huns slave army.
"you!"
The Jiuyuan County Lieutenant was a little stunned when he saw such a scene, but he still did not forget to kill the enemy.
With a pop, the halberd swung and beheaded the Hun general in front of him.
"The soldiers of Great Qin are fighting against the barbarians and protecting Sangzi!"
A middle-aged man with a long beard, holding a long knife, and his scholar's robes were stained red with blood. Hearing this, he smiled and said: "We are also men, how can we shrink back and hide behind you and enjoy it in peace?"
"As a member of the Xia Dynasty, even if you have not joined the army, you should still fight bravely when faced with barbarian invasion!"
After saying that, he rushed towards the Xiongnu army crossing the city wall and chopped it down with his sword.
Fearless of life and death, kill the barbarians!
"How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same clothes with you."
"The king raised his army, repaired my armor and soldiers, and went with me..."
Impassioned war songs resounded throughout Jiuquan City.
The officers and soldiers of the Qin Dynasty and the people faced the Xiongnu army together, defending the cities of the Qin Empire together, and guarding their parents, wives and children behind them.
