I’m The King

When the sky was dark, Shang Kexi woke up from his sleep after a wall stack, and he slept on the wall at night. He stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, turned his head and looked into the distance through the gap between the battlements. Opening his eyes widened, he rubbed vigorously again to confirm that he was not mistaken.Before the Qin Jun camp not far away, under the slight whiteness of the sky, what he saw was densely packed and could not be seen. Each of these huge siege vehicles is almost as high as the city wall of Shannan County.

Hell, how did the people of Qin build so many siege vehicles overnight? Shang Kexi thought in shock, looking at the mountain a little further away, where there were originally lush trees, but now it has become a patch of mottled.

His face became stern, and Qin Ren was about to start a crazy blow.

Standing in front of the huge siege engine, Wang Xiao was very satisfied with his son's attack this night.Compared with the ordinary siege engine, these siege engines have made relatively large changes. Although the work is rough, some even tree branches. The branches and leaves are smooth and shaved, but they are extremely strong. The huge iron nails nail the stems of the sea bowl together. At the forefront of the siege vehicle, the large iron shields are densely covered with each person's height. On the top two floors of the siege vehicle, several crossbows are placed, which can suppress the enemy on the wall. More importantly, the rear of the siege vehicle is no longer a ladder. It is a long ramp that is dragged diagonally, so that when attacking, soldiers can directly rush to the top floor of the siege vehicle along this ramp, and then directly impact the opponent's city wall, without the need Climbing up the ladder, in terms of time, the savings are not a star and a half, and time is naturally the most deadly at that moment. If you can climb the city wall as fast as possible, it will give the attacker the shortest reaction time. When everyone is at the same height, the two sides are almost on the same horizontal line.

"Okay, not bad, I will strike down Shannan County and I will give you a head attack." Wang Xiao stroked his beard and smiled.

"Father, son asks for the first wave of attacks." Wang Jian said loudly.

"No, you had a hard night last night. Today, you will take a good rest and go to sleep. When you wake up, we will probably already be standing above the city of Shannan County!" Wang Xiao apparently I am in a great mood. Looking at the smoke from everywhere in the camp, "After breakfast, the attack will begin. Today, we must take down Shannan County."

Above the city of Shannan County, all the people in the city are silently preparing for the next bitter battle.Sacks filled with soil are lifted onto the city wall and built into high barriers. The enemy has made so many, so With a tall siege vehicle, for the city, heightening the city wall is the simplest and most effective.

For more than ten days, the Qin army outside the city suffered heavy losses, but the city was also absolutely uncomfortable. Shang Kexi's 10,000 soldiers and the reserve soldiers of the Shannan Camp have already lost more than 3,000 people. He needs 20,000 people. For people to guard the comprehensive Shannan County City, this is a huge digital gap. Outside the city, the Qin army is still increasing its troops. Seeing that a new camp will be created on the other side every day, everyone in the city is Silent and speechless.

Don't know when your reinforcements will come?

"There is still a lot of good wine in the warehouse." Shang Kexi said suddenly, "Move out, let the soldiers drink, and add some strength."

"Wine?" Qian Kezhuang turned his head and looked at Shang Kexi, "General, you seem to be a little lacking in confidence?"

Shang Kexi smiled bitterly. "You are right. I do have a lack of confidence. Although the city has enough ordnance, the problem is that we no longer have more people to use them. Next, it must be cruel hand-to-hand combat. Lao Qian, the reserve under your staff, I'm afraid that it won't be able to withstand it then, and I, it is impossible to allocate more manpower to support you."

Qian Kezhuang was silent for a moment, "Shannan Camp does not require assistance. Even if we use our bodies to block it, we will guard the city wall. General Shang, I will go to guard the north and the north. I will leave it to you for other places."

Shang Kexi nodded, "I hope we have survived today, can survive today, for the enemy on the opposite side, the blow will be fatal, then we can hold on for a longer time."

"Commander Helan should be on the road now, right?"

"The army is dispatched at such a fast speed. The logistics supply alone is a systematic project. This time it happened suddenly. I am afraid that in a short time, the army of Commander Helan will not be able to leave the county. A conservative estimate, In terms of the fastest cavalry under Commander Helan, I am afraid it will take five or six days to reach us." Shang Kexi sighed, "I am afraid that the distant water will not be able to put out a nearby fire."

Drums rumbled, and the huge array of cars on the opposite side began to move forward.

"It's getting started!" Shang Kexi took a deep breath, "Come on, Wang Xiao, let me see what the Qin General General can do!"

To be honest, Wang Xiao really has no other tricks that can be surprisingly won. In the face of such a military fortress with sufficient weapons and sufficient food and grass, there is no other method that can be used except for head-to-head. , Flood the city with blood.

At the northern gate, Qian Kezhuang stood in front of his Shannan Camp. These days, his Shannan Camp did not engage in hand-to-hand combat, and basically maintained a complete organizational system. Now the strength of the city is seriously insufficient, and Shannan Camp must also take the lead. It's on the front line. Unlike the regular troops, the age structure of his team is very different. There are fifteen or sixteen-year-old boys and fifty-six-year-old men, but without exception, Qian What Ke Zhuang saw in their eyes was a firm will to fight.

"Brothers, get ready to work!" Qian Kezhuang waved his hand, as if calling everyone to go to the fields to do farm work, and shouted casually.

The crossbow arrow rose, and Qian Kezhuang stared at the siege truck that was approaching on the opposite side, spitting into the palm of his hand, and lifted the handle of the crossbow.

With a loud noise, the bed crossbow crossed the space and fired heavily on the siege vehicle, but was blocked by the thick shield.The bed crossbow was half embedded on the shield and could no longer cause more damage. The people in the city did not change their color, but the Qin Jun uttered a huge cheer under the city, which was heavy, and sometimes it also had the advantage of being heavy.

"The bed crossbow is not very useful for this thing. The front is blocked by the big shield. The bed crossbow extends to shoot the pawns behind, and the arm crossbow covers the shooting. Damn, you should give the siege vehicle another cover, so that I can There is nowhere to speak!" Qian Kezhuang hummed.

Accompanied by the rumbling sound, the siege vehicles leaned against the city wall, and the huge power made the entire city wall seem to be shaking.The top of the city wall was raised with hemp bags, but at this time it was taller than this siege vehicle. After more than a meter, the soldiers on the city kneeled halfway on one of the soil ramparts, and fired frantically at the siege vehicle with their arms open. The soldiers of the Qin Army shouted, pushing the soldiers in front of them to charge forward. The soldiers in the front had already died thoroughly, but they couldn't fall down because the people behind were using them as physical shields.

"The spearman, the spearman!" Qian Kezhuang screamed frantically. It was too late to wind the crossbow. He threw away the crossbow in his hand, picked up a spear at his feet, and yelled. It pierced it out. Qian Kezhuang heard a slight explosion as if it had punctured a urinary bubble.

Shake the bowl, close the spear, and then stabbed out. Two spears in front of him were stabbed fiercely at him. With two bangs, a shield appeared in time and blocked the two shots. Qian Kezhuang took the opportunity to stabbed the two. Qin Jun died on the spot.

"Father Wang, thank you!" Qian Kezhuang turned his head to look at the old man who was one step to his side. The old man grinned, showing his mouth missing several front teeth. "The old man can't move, but he can still give it to you. Block the gun."

On the other side, Shang Kexi danced his spear, shouting loudly and jumped directly from the battlements to the opposing siege vehicle. The spear danced like a windmill. On the crowded siege vehicle, he had made an open space. With the gratifying action, above the city wall, more soldiers jumped onto the siege vehicle and started fighting on the enemy's territory.

Above the city wall, fierce screams of killing were heard everywhere, and the Qin army in many places also jumped on the city wall and smashed with the Han army who rushed to counterattack. On the entire city wall, there was no place where fierce battle broke out. .

"Set fire, set fire!" Shang Kexi turned back and slammed back to the city wall, looking at the dangerous situation everywhere, and shouted.

"General, we have run out of grease."

"Wine, there is wine in the storeroom." Shang Kexi suddenly remembered something. "Bring in those wines, they are all spirits and can be ignited."

Soon, a jar of spirits was moved to the top of the city. Shang Kexi mentioned a jar of spirits, "Damn, it's cheaper!" He threw his arms and smashed a jar of wine on the siege vehicle. A torch followed. Was thrown up.

With a bang, the jar shattered, and a pale blue flame rose into the sky.

"Throw the wine, throw the wine jars over." The jars flew in the air and landed on the siege truck leaning on the city wall. The fire ignited again.

At about noon, Qin Jun's attack was finally repulsed, but Wang Xiao under the city had a smile on his face.

"They are so poor that they will finally run out of grease? Even the wine is used to set fire, but I don't know how much wine is stored in your Shannan County city." The smell of wine on the battlefield makes a lot of wine. The insects are greedy and salivate. Just sniffing, they know that it is a good wine. This is produced by the Wu family in Han. In Qin, it is still not able to produce such a strong wine. It is also imported from Han.

Qian Kezhuang's expression of regret was overwhelming. Just this round of setting fire, he just threw a dozen wine jars out in one breath. At that moment, it was a pity that the enemy retreated and smelled the wine. Xiang, he couldn't help but feel heartache.

"The son of a bitch, the son of a bitch!" He cursed nonchalantly: "Old Wang, can you find some small jars, it's better to only hold half a catty of wine."

"Old money, you want to keep some secretly!" Lao Wang asked in a low voice.

"Fart, when I was in Liaoning Wei, I saw that General Meng Chong of Nanye also used this trick, but he used a small bottle to fill the wine, put a twister in front, burned it for a while and then threw it out, with a bang. This bottle burst open. Not only is it burning people, the sharp fragments can also kill people. Throwing it like before is too wasteful." Qian is strong. (To be continued)
