This is a clever plan! Wei Zhe nodded: "I thought we could send two thousand cavalry to cover and rescue!" Yu Liao also nodded. Although the Mo family said that everyone has great martial arts, this is only a single combat power. If it is serious against regular soldiers,

On the other hand, the more people they have, the harder it is to control them. After all, rangers are not as good at obeying orders as soldiers, and their group strength is great. They are unfettered and usually fight alone. If there are 7,000 soldiers attacking, they will attack again.

Surprisingly, I'm afraid the Mo family will really suffer a big loss if they are at a loss.

Ying Zheng nodded, took out his token and threw it on the desk: "In that case, Wang Ben, this time the government orders you to lead the troops, are you willing now?"

Unexpectedly, he would have the opportunity to fight and kill the enemy in person. Wang Ben was so excited that his cheeks were red and his expression was extremely complicated. Since he was thinking about his father's instructions when he arrived, he could not easily take a step away from Ying Zheng and had to protect him personally.

But since he was a child, the young man has dreamed of leading an army as a general, going into battle to kill the enemy and become a majestic general. Now the opportunity is right in front of him. After waiting for a long time, how can he be willing to refuse it all at once? Wang Ben struggled, but Ying Zheng knew that he would definitely

He couldn't stand such a temptation. Although he was reluctant to return to Handan City yesterday, taking prisoners was not considered a heroic act. The young man had dreams in his heart and disdained it. He also understood that he had also been young and frivolous in his previous life.

time, but the opportunity is different at this time. Ambushing and killing the enemy is different from yesterday's custody of women and prisoners. With Wang Ben's temperament, he must have achieved most of his wish."

"The young general will stay by the king's side. The king should find someone else!" To Ying Zheng's surprise, Wang Ben gritted his teeth and shook his head to reject the matter. Although his face was full of pain as if he was cutting flesh.

It felt funny, but his ability to be loyal to his duties made Ying Zheng look at him with admiration. He couldn't help but pick up the token and wave it in front of him: "Are you serious about not going?"

"I really won't go! The young general's duty is to protect the king's safety, not to show off his bravery!" Wang Ben quickly regained his composure, endured his pained expression, and shook his head firmly, in order to save his willpower.

After being severely tested, he saluted Ying Zheng and said: "Your Majesty, the young general will go outside the camp to wait for your Majesty to look for him..."

"Go! Mr. Yu's martial arts are unfathomable. I originally thought that with Mr. Yu at my side, I would be safe and I would like to give you this job. If Wang Ben doesn't want to, just find someone else!" Ying Zheng shook his head.

Wang Ben's ears immediately stood up as he was about to go out. He quickly turned around and knelt on the ground: "The young general does not know what is good and what is good. Yu Gong will naturally save himself a hundred times. I beg the king to order the young general to go!"

The corner of Ying Zheng's mouth curled up and he glanced at Wang Ben. He saw the young man pursed his lips, calm and stubborn. He had no intention of sending anyone else, so he paused. When he saw the anxious look in his eyes,

only then readily agreed

Wang Ben was very excited when he received the order. He suppressed the excitement in his heart and told Yu Liao in a serious manner to follow Ying Zheng. Yu Liao was a little sluggish, and he couldn't help but agreed. Only then did he excitedly mention himself

The two halberds ran outside the camp and wiped them carefully with a handkerchief.

As soon as he left, Yu Liao couldn't laugh or cry: "No wonder Zi Jian is so worried, he is just a child." Having said that, he did not blame Wang Ben in his eyes, but rather liked Ying Zheng.

He nodded, and couldn't help but smile when he thought of Wang Jian's helplessness when he mentioned his son, but the important thing at this time was to capture Dongyang, so he put aside the distracting thoughts in his heart, spread out the map, and called Yu

Liao and others gathered around, and while they were discussing, Meng Tian strode in from outside the tent.

"The general has seen the king. At this time, the soldiers are ready to attack. I wonder when the king will order the attack?" If Huang Yuchun hadn't had this accident, judging from the current situation of Zhao State being restricted to a lonely place, Dongyang could be conquered by just using brute force.

After taking it down, Meng Tian had a calm temperament and did not become arrogant because the Qin army was in a sure victory position. On the contrary, he became calmer. In addition, the addition of a variable like Huang Yuchun made him even more careful and unwilling to make any mistakes.

, he was afraid that his soldiers would die because of his own mistakes. His kindness was also the reason why Wei Zhe was optimistic about him. In addition to joining in the fun this time and wanting to see the power of Qin's new weapons, Meng Tian was also one of the reasons why he insisted on following him.

"Let the soldiers prepare first, and wait until daylight before attacking the city!" Ying Zheng sat in the main seat, hurriedly summoned Meng Tian to stand up, and took a look outside through the raised tent door before speaking.

Dongyang City is the base of Zhao State. Zhao soldiers must be far more familiar with Dongyang than Qin soldiers. If they go there rashly, they will suffer losses. Although Ying Zheng has the intention to destroy Zhao at this time, he is not in a hurry.

, he has been waiting all these years, how can he wait for such a short time? Meng Tian agreed, then held the Changjiao hanging behind him to the side of the camp, and also poked his head to look at the sand table map.

The sky gradually became brighter. Sima Shang's eyes were filled with bloodshot eyes as he stood on the high city wall. His hair was blown to pieces by the wind. He casually put a cloth scarf on his head. His helmet was hung on a shelf beside him. He supported the wall with both hands and frowned.

Wrinkled tightly, as the sky lightened up, he could see the Qin army camp clearly. The groups of soldiers wearing dark armor made him take a breath of air. Almost everyone of these people was wearing armor. He didn't know

Where did Zhao Zheng get so much armor? But at this time, Sima Shang instinctively felt that the situation might be bad. Huang Yuchun had not yet arrived. I am afraid that even if he arrived today, the Qin army would probably suffer losses in attacking the city today.

Some troops, when thinking of this, Sima Shang felt like a knife was cutting his heart, and there was a look of regret in his eyes.

"Woo~" The sky was completely bright, and the sun broke through the clouds and emerged. A row of soldiers blowing horns made the only sound that could be heard in the sky and the earth. The sound of armor scraping and the sound of running were at the same time.

When the sound rang out, rows of spearmen were already carrying hundreds of spears about two feet long and slowly moved towards the gate of Dongyang City. At the front of the row were soldiers carrying steel shields, and the entire queue behind them was

It was tightly blocked, with a row of crossbowmen standing at the end, and in front of it was a row of neatly arranged chariot crossbows, ready to go, with arrows and feathers already loaded. Many infantrymen had long swords tucked behind their waists and in their hands.

Carrying a ladder

Sima Shang's eyes were red. He took off the helmet hanging on the shelf and put it on his head. His eyes were full of determination. The Qin army was well-equipped and had a large number of people. It was unreasonable to go out of the city to meet the enemy.

There were Zhao soldiers who were guarding the city gate, only looking forward to Huang Yuchun's early arrival in Dongyang City. All of them had dull expressions on their faces, but they took their positions neatly. They were surrounded by piles of arrow feathers and arrows.

Stones and other objects were thrown away, and everyone looked at death with an expression. As soon as the horn of the Qin soldiers sounded, there was a whole line of soldiers of the King of Zhao and Yue waving the drums and hammers in their hands.

"Dong dong dong!" Drums sounded slowly like raindrops. The faces of the Zhao soldiers couldn't help but shake up. But Sima Shang and Le Jian looked at each other, but they couldn't feel happy in their hearts. They were satisfied

It took a hundred people to beat the drums, and they just managed to get over with the horns of a team of about 30 people from the Qin State. Just by relying on this method of boosting morale, they actually lost. Sima Shang wiped his face and stood on the top of the city.

With a "clang" sound, he drew out his long sword and shouted loudly: "Young men! Are you afraid of fighting with the traitors of Qin today?"

The word "fear" immediately aroused a sense of humiliation in the hearts of many soldiers. Before Sima Shang could finish his words, the soldiers all shouted: "Don't be afraid!"

"The ones I'm afraid of are straight mothers and thieves!"

"Even if we fight against the Qin thieves, we have to support one person even if we die!" The Zhao soldiers' eyes were red, and many of them even drew their bows to the full capacity before shooting in the direction of Qin. Sima Shang gritted his teeth.

, feeling that his face was about to become ferocious and twisted, and his mouth was full of the smell of blood. At this moment, his eyes could see very clearly, and he saw that the Qin people on the opposite side had slowly moved over, like a huge dark cloud.

It's gradually coming here like a tide.

"Archers, watch carefully and shoot towards the King of Qin's car in the middle! As long as the King of Qin dies, the Qin army will be defeated without attacking. Men, please be more careful!" Sima Shang shouted loudly, but when he looked down from a high place, he saw

About a mile away from this time, there was a Qin archer who had already fully stretched his long bow. He curled his lips in disdain. At such a long distance, even if this person had the ability and arm strength to draw the bow,

I'm afraid that the long bow is easy to break, and the arrow cannot shoot this far! Sima Shang was determined, but the next moment Le Jian shouted: "General Sima, be careful!" After saying that, Sima Shang only felt that he was hit by a strong force.

He flew fiercely to the left. Before he could recover, he heard the sound of an arrow piercing the air and shooting towards him as fast as lightning. With a loud bang, that

The arrow feathers were nailed into the city wall behind him.

Sima Shang only felt that his hands and feet were cold. He didn't realize that his body was already trembling. He looked back at the arrows that were swaying in the wall. Only half of them were outside, and they were at least half a foot into the wall. They were originally intact.

Spider-like cracks quickly opened around the wall, and these small cracks continued to spread around. Sima Shang felt as if his heart was being beaten hard, and his vision went dark.

Sitting on the ground for a while, unable to get up, he cried out:

"This is impossible!" At this time, the bronze bow and arrow could not support the full draw of the bow, otherwise it would be suspected of breaking, and it might also injure the archer himself. But this long arrow not only flew over, but came with such force.

It is so big that it can shoot halfway without losing momentum. If the Qin army were all equipped with such crossbows, what else would be easy to fight today?

Lejian's hands also started to tremble, his face turned livid, he stood up to pluck the long arrow that had been nailed into the wall. The Zhao soldiers on the city wall fell into a deathly silence, looking at the arrow tail that was still trembling.

feathers, frightened

"I can't pull it out!" Le Jian exerted so much force that the veins on his forehead burst open, but his efforts were in vain. He felt horrified and ashamed at the same time. He didn't expect that he couldn't even pull out an arrow feather for a while.

, just now the soldiers of Zhao State were all excited, and they all wanted to die together with the Qin soldiers. But now they saw the first arrow fired by the Qin army. It could shoot so far and penetrate so deep into the wall.

How can the weapons here compare to others? Everyone's hearts suddenly felt indescribable despair and decadence. Sima Shang was actually very disappointed, but he reluctantly endured it and just stood up with a smile. The arm on the ground shook slightly.

Trembling: "But are you scared?"

He had just asked the same question about whether he was afraid, and the soldiers had answered sonorously and forcefully. But when he asked again, the place was completely silent. He could only hear the whine and whine of the horses as the chariot rolled below.

At the sound of the horn, Sima Shang's eyes widened, and he showed a smile that was uglier than crying: "What are you afraid of? Even if you lose in the end, it is just death. If you die well, you will be dead again in eighteen years."

Now you are the only heroes left in the Zhao Kingdom. If you are also afraid, will the Zhao Kingdom exist in name only? The king is still waiting in the palace. As a man, if he cannot protect his family and the country, how can he dare to claim to be his husband?"

Sima Shang clenched his fists, and his words still affected the soldiers lying on the city wall to some extent. Many of them bit, shook their heads, turned around, and stuffed stones into the catapult. All of this

Everyone was silent, with a tragic atmosphere. Sima Shang felt that his heart was extremely heavy. He gritted his teeth and raised his voice: "A month ago, I sent a brief letter to Mr. Huang Yuchun, the great man of the Mohist family. Now

Mr. Huang should be on the way to Dongyang by now. If you guys persist for another three to five days, you will definitely be saved!" No one wants to die if he can survive!

As soon as they heard this, everyone's initial determination to die suddenly came back to life. The lifeless aura on their faces disappeared, and their spirits were obviously lifted. They all agreed in unison, and their eyes glowed with a faded brilliance again, and their movements were quick.

Even more neatly, Dolejian looked at Sima Shang with a complicated expression, his lips moved, but he did not speak. He called the two soldiers together, and the three of them worked together to finally pull out the arrow feathers stuck in the wall, and took a group of soldiers with them.

floor plaster

Le Jian spread out the arrow feathers in his hand, weighed it carefully, frowned and said: "It is a little heavier than the red copper arrows. It is said that the Qin State recruited craftsmen from all over the world, and found the original craftsman Ou Yezi.

Man, this must have been made by the descendants of Ou Yezi, right?" Otherwise, everyone would not know why this arrow was so powerful, and it broke through the wall without breaking, and the bow was fully drawn.

Like a full moon, he actually fired the arrow out.

Sima Shang's mouth was bitter, so he took the long sword, looked at it for a while, held it tightly in his hand, and said no more.

The feathers of this arrow are all black, glowing with cold light, and the tip of the arrow is sharp and threatening. If he hadn't been knocked away by Le Jian just now, I'm afraid he would have become a dead soul under the arrow by now, even though he had the intention of death at this time.

, but he is not willing to die at the hands of the Qin army from the beginning, otherwise there will be no face left. In addition, if he dies, the Zhao soldiers will be in chaos, and there will be no need to defend the city (to be continued)
