After his cronies left, Liu Yu pulled out his sword, pointed at the city in front of him and shouted: "All soldiers, the way back is ahead, attack with me, kill!"

With one order, the various ministries of the Han army quickly launched an attack on the city.

The soldiers who had prepared a long time ago carried a simple ladder and rushed towards the moat quickly.

The Qi army leaned out one after another, and shot and killed the attacking enemy army below the city with bows and arrows. The arrows had no purpose and scattered everywhere, but because of the large number, they formed a tight attack network for a while.

"Puff, puff."

Amidst the screams, the soldiers of the Han army died suddenly.Fortunately, Liu Yu ordered the soldiers to disperse as much as possible, so the number of casualties did not continue to rise.

But at this moment, Liu Yu still saw the strength of the Qi army.

There is still a big difference between cavalry and infantry.

In order to attack the city, the soldiers around Liu Yu were all infantry.As for the soldiers of the Qi army, they had received news long ago that they were all battle-tested cavalry.

The cavalry defending the city can still build such a tight attack network, which shows that the overall strength of the Qi army is indeed far superior to them.

It's a pity that they don't have large siege weapons around them.

Although the stone bridge above the big river is in their hands, not to mention the huge siege equipment, the manufacture is also extremely cumbersome, and there must be no way to build it in a short time.

But Liu Yu had no choice. Knowing that there would be heavy casualties, he could only forcibly attack the city.

"Puchi, puchi."

"Touch, touch, touch."

"Dong dong dong."

The sound of arrows entering the body, the sound of stones hitting soldiers, and the sound of drums beating powerful enough to shake the sky.Coupled with the shrill screams from the siege.

The whole siege battle, from the very beginning, directly entered the bloody battle moment.

"Quick, fill me up quickly, and the speed must be fast."

Under Liu Yu's order, the forward, as a soldier filling up the moat, rushed over quickly with sacks under the leadership of his own Sima.

Filling up the moat is a laborious task.

Especially for Jincheng in front of him, this job is even more troublesome.

When the city was first built, the moat outside Jincheng was actually a tributary of the Yellow River.

Although the Yellow River flows slowly in the lower reaches, it is extremely turbulent in the upper reaches.The waves rolling up from time to time make people dare not look directly at them.

It is precisely because there is enough water that can be introduced that the moat of Jincheng is wide and deep.

It is a very huge task to block several roads leading to the city.

But Liu Yu's order had already been issued, and Sima, who was in charge of this work, could only bite the bullet and let the soldiers carry sacks.

Faced with these enemies who are not afraid of death, the soldiers of the Qi army naturally have no intention of being merciful.

The arrows shot down at high speed, not to mention extremely high aim, and they also attacked extremely intensively.

A large number of Han soldiers fell into the moat one after another.

This approach of relying on human life to block the river was wrong from the beginning, but Liu Yu had no choice.

If it were someone else, in the face of oppression from the top of the city, they could only fill up the moat first.

After all, no one knows whether it will be the Qi army or the reinforcements that will appear next.

"Pu Chi, Pu Chi." The 2000 people under the command of the army commander, each with a huge sack filled with soil, quickly slanted down towards the moat.

Amidst the loud noises, the water of the Yellow River continued to splash. After hard work, the total width of the moat finally showed signs of decreasing.

However, the number of injured and killed soldiers in the front battalion has reached as many as 700, and the speed of the front battalion, which has been reduced too much, has slowed down again.

The former army Sima had no choice but to turn to Liu Yu for help.

At this time, Liu Yu was also broken, and directly ordered all the remaining civilians with the army to go to the front line to help the army fill up the moat.

This time, it hit Xue Rengui's weakness.

Because of the insufficient number of people, Xue Rengui could only spend a lot of money to recruit people in the city to help defend the city.

Seeing that people have money to take, they are naturally willing to contribute.But right now, among the people who appeared under the city, there were actually relatives they had been thinking about day and night. As soon as the news spread, it immediately exploded.

The people on both sides shouted across the river, and the cry resounded through the sky.

In order to prevent the people from frying the pot, Xue Rengui could only order his soldiers to temporarily stop attacking.

Facing the unstoppable Han army, he immediately gained strength and quickly filled up the moat.

"Father, attack! This is the first day. If we lose the moat, it will be difficult to defend the city." Xue Dingshan persuaded from the side.

Even though Xue Rengui was gnashing his teeth, he still held back the fury in his heart at this moment, and said to his son beside him, "Don't worry, we still have the city wall without the moat. I believe Yue Pengju is not far from Jincheng."

Chapter 1008: Similarities in History

Outside Linzhao City, the Qi army's wheels were rolling, and they couldn't see the edge at a glance.

"How far is it to Jincheng?" Yue Fei looked at the sun with eagerness on his face.

"At least two days away." Zhang Xun replied.

"No, continue at this speed. I'm afraid that Rengui won't be able to hold on. You must know that Guanzhong is full of roads, unimpeded, and the speed is definitely faster than ours." Yue Fei's face was full of anxiety.

It has been thirteen days since Xue Rengui led the troops to leave.

This Great Qi warrior not only rushed to Jincheng within ten days, but also set up defense lines inside and outside Jincheng.

Under the general trend, it is impossible for the Han army to sit still, and they will definitely concentrate all their strength to storm Jincheng.

With only [-] soldiers under Xue Rengui's command, how can they compete with the huge Han army.

For now, if I can't arrive in time, I'm afraid not only the battle against Han will fall into a stalemate, but even Xue Rengui and his soldiers will be wiped out.

"Marshal, let the last general go. The last general will be sure to reach Jincheng within a day." Zhang Xun took the opportunity to say.

Yue Fei nodded in praise and said: "Okay, I will let you go with General Yan Liang and General Zhang Yun. I will send [-] soldiers to you."

Zhang Xun led the order and set off quickly.

Under the Jincheng, the Han army finally filled up the moat by relying on the people as a shield, and quickly drove the army under the city.
