Saint Qin Batu

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

The soldiers raised their voices to hide the fear in their hearts.You know, in today's city, there are no more than 1000 people who can hold weapons.

"Don't panic! Hold the city gate, they are cavalry, they can't attack!"

"boom!"

However, this sentence was interrupted by a loud noise before it even spread above the city wall.

"Squeak! Squeak!"

Under the city gate, a few mechanical mice rolled their nimble eyes, and disappeared within a few breaths.

Xerxes was too confident, or in other words, he was dormant by Qin's exquisite craftsmanship.In particular, the link to the Wengcheng, which had caused him serious losses, made him think that only more than 1000 people were enough to support him to return to the teacher.

However, although this city once belonged to the Parthian Empire.However, the people who built the urn city to guard the city were from the Mo family.

And the seemingly solid gate, and the many traps in the Wengcheng, are in the hands of the Gongshu family.

Picking up other people's things, hoping to hit others with it.Xerxes still underestimated the Gongshu family and the mechanism skills of the Mohist family too much.

The howling cavalry rushed into the city with almost no obstacles.Not only this city, but almost every city was attacked by the Qin army.Moreover, the results and processes are strikingly similar.

At this moment, Xerxes was still planning how to attack Lenny City, which was like a fortress in front of him. He didn't know that his retreat had already been copied.

Chapter 452 I'm Not Here

The Parthians, like the Huns, mostly ate meat during wars, and occasionally ate some dry food.

Therefore, when the city behind Xerxes was captured, Xerxes himself was even actively seeking a decisive battle with the Qin army.

However, in the battle of siege and defense, the Qin army, no, it should be said that the entire China has always been the ancestor of the world.

Especially now that Xerxes' retreat is cut off, how could it be possible for the Qin army to fight a decisive battle with the Parthian army, which is not much smaller than itself?

Time passed day by day, and the Parthian Army, who was still in power before, seemed to have bumped into an invisible wall.

Whether it is to disperse the troops, or gather together to attack a city, the effect is not too great.

Moreover, no matter how they provoke the Qin army on those towers.Qin Jun was also unmoved in the slightest, and still couldn't get out of Gucheng.

Qin Jun's shrunken appearance made all the Anxi people itch their teeth with hatred, and cursed these people as cowards.No wonder the city is so beautifully built.

However, unlike those resting generals who were dazzled by victory and desire, Xerxes faintly sensed something was wrong.

"How long will we have enough food for our cattle and sheep?" Xerxes casually asked King Maria beside him while looking at the map.

"There are still a lot of cattle and sheep, but the fodder is only enough for two or three days." Ancient King Maria replied respectfully.

However, Xerxes was startled and asked with a frown: "The fodder is only enough for two or three days? Could it be that the people behind didn't bring the fodder?"

Logically speaking, among the troops of the Parthian Army, the amount of fodder is generally kept at about ten days.However, now it is only enough for two or three days, which is really abnormal.

Something went wrong in the rear!And it's a big problem!

"No wonder they stayed behind closed doors. They planned to wait for our food and grass to run out!" Xerxes' eyes became more and more dignified.

Today, it is no longer a question of retaking the Marchiana region.Food and grass have been cut off, presumably, their way back has also been blocked.

"We must retreat before the fodder is exhausted!" Xerxes slapped the table, his eyes widened, and King Mariagu on the side jumped.

"Obey, obey!" King Maria did not dare to question Xerxes' decision, although he was puzzled, he responded immediately.

"Hope, there's still time!" Xerxes murmured softly in words that only he could hear.

"General! The enemy has withdrawn!"

In Lenny City, Li Mu, the lieutenant general, gently closed the book in his hand.

"Send a message to Han Xin and tell him not to let an enemy go! In addition, mobilize all the cavalry, follow me out of the city, and attack with the tail!"

"Here!"

After waiting for so long, Qin Jun, who had already suffocated, obviously couldn't wait to fight his opponent.

In their eyes, outside the city gate, the towering ones are not people, but military exploits.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Two galloping sounds echoed back and forth over the wilderness.The horses of the Qin army are slightly inferior to those of the Anxi people.However, the strong crossbow was beyond the reach of the Parthians' bows.

Qin Nu, who was so annoying, provoked Xerxes to pursue him several times.

However, Qin Jun is still extremely cunning.He didn't fight the Parthians, and once he saw that the Parthians were going to turn back, he withdrew in a flash.

Even if the Anxi people chased them quickly with their horses, the Qin army could always hide in the nearest city at the least cost.As a result, it was the Parthians who lost even more.

There was no way, Xerxes could only divide his troops, some of them contained the cavalry of the Qin army behind, and the other part cleared the way ahead.

This method can indeed restrain Qin's chasing troops, but with fewer troops, the effect is not obvious.If there are too many soldiers, it will lead to insufficient troops on the other side.

You must know that what is really dangerous to the Parthian Army is not the tens of thousands of cavalry behind them, but the fortified city in front of them.

"General, it's already the fourth day. If we can't conquer those cities as soon as possible, the horses will starve to death!"

In the big tent, Darius was very anxious.

"What can you do?"

However, what Xerxes said made Darius speechless.

"The horses are gone, but the cattle and sheep are still there, so we can still fight! Moreover, once our soldiers see their beloved horses being starved to death by the schemes of the Qin people, their anger will make them stronger!"

Sure enough, as Xerxes said.After another two days, there were not even more than a thousand horses in the Parthian Army that could really stand up.

The rest are either dead or dying.

The Anxi people who grew up with horses saw their horses starve to death miserably, and their hearts were filled with rage.

"Kill all the Qin people!"

"Kill all the Qin people!"

On the battlefield, the 20 Anxi Cavalry Army, which had completely turned into an infantry army, was still not afraid of the Qin cavalry on horseback.

"General, there seems to be something wrong with the Anxi people!" Beside Li Mu, a middle-aged general frowned and said softly.
