When it comes to individual combat capabilities and the bravery of its soldiers, the Jin army is definitely not as good as the Qin army. But their advantage lies in the fact that they can defend themselves with city defenses, being condescending and unable to retreat.
And the siege battle is undoubtedly the most difficult! Xuzhou is a huge city, and there are 100,000 Jin troops. No matter how brave the Qin army is, it is impossible to attack it in just one day.
After the war ceased that day, both sides suffered heavy losses. On the top of the city, Du Yu couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief and murmured: "Finally withstood it..."
"General." Not long after, his deputy general came over quickly. Seeing him, Du Yu immediately asked: "Have all the inspections been completed? What are the losses of our army?"
"This..." the deputy general swallowed and said, "Nearly 10,000 soldiers were killed and more than 3,000 were seriously injured."
"What!?" Upon hearing this, Du Yu's expression changed drastically. You must know that they are the defender of the city and have an absolute advantage. However, in this single battle, there were such heavy casualties, which Du Yu could not accept.
The deputy general said cautiously: "General, from today's battle, it is clear that the Qin army is brave. The other side fights as if they are risking their lives. If this continues, our army... I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long."
"What can we do!?" Du Yu said angrily, and then said: "Continue to strengthen the city defense! Don't let any slack!"
"Yes!" On the other side, the Qin army camp. After the First World War, because the Qin Army was the one attacking the city, its losses were no lower than those of the Jin Army.
A military civilian officer was also reporting. After Xiao Yuan heard this, he took a deep breath and said: "This battle was so tragic, which shows how hard our soldiers worked for Qin's march eastward!" Su Yi said: "Your Majesty, today's battle will Although the Jin army has defended, our army's fierce and sharp offensive has completely overwhelmed the Jin army in terms of momentum and made it frightened. As a general, we should continue to attack hard and not give the Jin army any respite."
"That's right. If you want to fight a vicious war, then fight him to the end! If Xuzhou is not broken for a day, and the war continues, the casualties of the soldiers will only be more serious!" Xiao Yuan said, and immediately added: "Instant order, Goldman Sachs' troops , Guan Kui's troops, He Yi's troops, launched a night attack on Xuzhou City!"
"No!" The three generals immediately clasped their fists. In this fierce battle in Xuzhou, Xiao Yuan divided the Qin army into two echelons, launched a strong attack day and night, and made a posture of not giving up until Xuzhou was taken!
Under its sharp offensive, it can be imagined that Xuzhou was somewhat panicked. night. The war breaks out again.
Cries of killing filled the entire Xuzhou city wall. In the dark night, flaming arrows were fired back and forth over both sides.
Even though the attack on Xuzhou was at night, the battle was even more brutal than during the day. The miserable howls came one after another without interruption in this late night, causing the people in the city to close their doors and windows and hide in their homes in silence.
Fortunately, Du Yu had already told him to strengthen the city defense. Otherwise, if Xuzhou was caught off guard during the night attack, it would be the end!
In the city, Du Yu had fallen asleep before, but when the urgent message came, he woke up immediately. He hurriedly put on his armor and rushed to the front line.
Standing on the top of the city, looking at the stars below, countless torches, and the roar of the charge, Du Yu couldn't help but take a deep breath and couldn't help but say: "Is King Qin crazy? Such an attack on the city has never happened before! "
"General... General, the Qin army has never seen such a ferocious fighting style, which our Jin army has never seen before. The morale of our army has been suppressed." The deputy general said in a trembling voice.
"Why panic! Hold on!" Du Yu shouted loudly: "All generals, please come to the front line and command the battle! You must guard your own defense line!" Of course, Xuzhou did not break this night attack, but other The situation has been completely defeated by the Qin army.
Although the Jin army is no longer a new recruit, it has never experienced such a fierce battle. To the old Qin people, this was nothing, but the Jin army undoubtedly began to feel frightened.
When the battle came to dawn, the second echelon of the Qin army withdrew its troops and began to rest. Then, the first echelon started again!
From the morning of the first day, we fought until night, then until dawn, and again until night, without stopping. The Qin army took turns taking turns, fighting more and more fiercely day by day, and its momentum became more and more sharp. It launched a non-stop storming of Xuzhou City.
Almost every one of the more than 200,000 Qin troops went to the battlefield, and those who survived crawled out of the dead.
It can be seen from this that the combat power of this army will become stronger as it fights. On the other hand, the Jin army's strength continued to decrease sharply under this offensive, and many of the soldiers below also began to fear the enemy.
This is a kind of suppression of morale and combat effectiveness. If it weren't for the persistence of Xuzhou's tall city defenses, Du Yu's troops would have been directly defeated long ago!
At this time, due to the continuous strong attacks, Du Yu was also tortured to exhaustion. He knew in his heart that King Qin was fighting a tough battle with him, face to face!
The Jin army cannot defeat the Qin army. If this continues, Xuzhou will never be able to hold on! This vicious battle lasted for three days and three nights.
On the fourth day, it was still the same. On the fifth day. Qin army camp. The civilian officer in the army was reporting: "Your Majesty, in yesterday's battle, in the third formation of our infantry, Captain He Yi died in battle..."
"The fourth infantry formation, two captains died in battle..."
"The sixth formation..." Xiao Yuan closed his eyes deeply, and after he finished reciting, he took a deep breath. The scene became somewhat silent. How could it be possible that he didn't have any disturbance in his heart.
He Yi, he was the one who followed him all the way to the south and north, until he established the Qin State, and made great contributions.
"Your Majesty..." Upon seeing this, all the generals shouted tentatively. Xiao Yuan raised his hand to stop them, then put away his grief, took a deep breath again, his eyes flashed, and said in a loud voice: "Keep fighting!" The battle has reached this level, and it must be done in one go. !
The Jin army has become irresistible. The Qin army is fighting hard. Under this kind of offensive, the opponent will only have an even harder time!
From the very beginning of this battle to this point, what we have been fighting for is perseverance! All it takes is determination! The bitter and cold Qin was despised by other countries and still had to resist the Xirong. The Qin people had been looked down upon and ridiculed in other places before, and were regarded as a barbaric land and barbaric people. Now, there is no doubt about their determination to go eastward!
The officers and men above and below are moving forward inexorably, and the more they fight, the more fierce they become! On the other hand, the Jin army became more and more timid as they fought. Day six.
The seventh day... until the eleventh day. On the city wall, Du Yu's hair was already disheveled. He grabbed a general by the collar, his eyes widened, and his hair and beard were spread out. He shouted: "Ride a fast horse! Six hundred miles to hurry up! Tell the king! Xuzhou, I can’t hold on any longer!” ABC
