King Qin's killing of chickens to scare monkeys was quite effective.
But compared with the majesty of the emperor on the city wall, it was still inferior.
"Your Majesty is going to rebel!" At this moment, they still didn't understand what King Qin was doing.
"Rebellion is a serious crime of beheading, and may even implicate nine tribes!"
"No matter what, since we're already here, let's just follow the prince and maybe we can get some benefits from following the dragon."
"That's right. The opponent only has a thousand people, and we have 300,000 people. You don't have to look at it. Your Majesty will win!"
"Come on!"
In just a short moment, the soldiers weighed the pros and cons, continued to pick up their weapons, climbed up the ladder to attack the city, and hit the city gate.
Liang Qi gave the order again, "Pour in the kerosene."
Following Liang Qi's order, the soldiers in the row behind him immediately picked up jars filled with kerosene on the ground and threw them towards the bottom of the tower.
"put!"
After the kerosene poured down, the archers drew their bows and nocked arrows at the same time, and shot out instantly.
Arrows rained down, and each arrow was tied with a fire break.
The rockets shot out and set their clothes on fire. Thousands of rebel soldiers became flaming figures one by one. All of a sudden, the city wall instantly turned into a sea of fire.
The rebel soldiers, whose bodies were burning, were running around, screaming heart-breakingly.
"Ah, help!"
"ah!"
"Water, water, water!"
"Boom! Boom!"
Thousands of soldiers whose bodies were on fire screamed and jumped into the moat to put out the fire.
A fire caused heavy losses to the rebels and also allowed them to temporarily stop their siege.
However, this is only temporary.
In the middle of the night, when the fire stopped, King Qin ordered the soldiers to continue attacking the city regardless of casualties, with the intention of capturing Shangzhou City as soon as possible.
After using up the fire, continue to defend with the boulders prepared earlier.
On the wall of Shangzhou City, the soldiers who defended the city were on guard. They raised big rocks with both hands high and threw them down at the rebels who were climbing up.
When a boulder falls, it brings down a large area.
There were also soldiers who had just lifted the stone, but were hit by the rebels' arrows and fell to the ground, screaming, and then continued to be pushed up by the soldiers behind them.
The same was true for the rebels. They fell one after another, followed by another group.
This battle to protect the city had lasted for two days and two nights. Liang Qi looked at the few arrow feathers and large rocks. He turned and walked towards His Majesty who was sitting behind him and would not leave.
"His Majesty!"
Liang Qichen reported: "We have suffered heavy losses, and reinforcements have not yet arrived. I'm afraid-"
Liang Qi did not continue speaking the last sentence.
But everyone present understood what this meant.
Chen Jue raised his eyes and looked around. The city wall was now covered with blood and corpses were everywhere, but he didn't even bother to move them.
Even the corners of Chen Jue's clothes were stained with a drop of blood.
Looking at the blood stains on the corners of his clothes, Chen Jue frowned.
rebel camp
"Your Majesty, we have already lost a total of 100,000 soldiers and horses, and we cannot continue to fight like this all afternoon.
We must find a way to attack the city as soon as possible to capture the little emperor alive, otherwise we will have no way out when reinforcements arrive! "
Vice General Qin said, "I didn't expect that a small Shangzhou City would cost us so many soldiers and horses. That man named Liang Qi should not be underestimated!"
If they were not in hostile camps, Vice General Qin would really like to make friends with this person.
King Qin was also very distressed after failing to capture Shangzhou City for two days and two nights, and it also caused him heavy losses.
"Sir, do you have any plans?" the military advisor of the Qin Dynasty looked at him.
"My lord, don't worry, I have already predicted that it will be difficult to attack the mall and have prepared countermeasures." Ying Yuan said calmly.
