Wei Bing, who had been listening to Qin Feng for three hours, suddenly stopped listening and felt very uncomfortable.
All they could see was that the flints from the sky were still falling like meteor showers. The only sound they could hear was the roar of the ground, filled with the sound of the howling wind.
One after another, ladders were continuously raised on the city wall, and the frequency was more than three times faster than before. The Wei soldiers, who were accustomed to the intensity of the Qin army's siege, could not react at the moment and could not knock down all the ladders.
Just after such a delay, the ladder that had not been pushed down immediately entered a state of vibration, just like a wild animal eager to shake off its fur after swimming - the Qin army was climbing the ladder quickly.
The ladder carried the weight of the Qin army. The ladder could be easily pushed down by one Wei soldier, but two people had to work together to pull it down.
It's not like Wei Bing never thought of destroying the ladder.
There is no need to cut off the ladder in the middle. The three-foot-high ladder only needs to be cut off at the top of the city. The height is not high enough to reach Linji City. This was how it was destroyed in previous wars.
Their bronze weapons struck the ladder and got stuck within an inch, making a metallic collision sound - the Mohists added an iron core to the farthest end of the ladder.
As the battle became more intense, Zhou Shi's orders became more urgent and his voice became hoarse. Only two of his soldiers stayed by his side for protection, and the rest all participated in the defense of the city.
The smile on the face of the Wei general was no longer there, and was replaced by a ferocious expression.
Only then did he realize that the Qin army did not use its full strength that night.
The silent Qin army is much more troublesome than the singing Qin army.
Zhou Shi gasped for breath, and the fishy wind and stench rushed in along his mouth and nose, making his brain go blank. He felt very uncomfortable, as if he had returned to the day when Daliang City was destroyed ten years ago.
The flood immersed his whole body in it, and what he opened his mouth to inhale was not the life-saving air but the cold river water. He spit out bubbles as if spitting out his own life.
There is only outgoing breath, no incoming breath.
I can only exhale, not inhale.
After a few years, the world has long forgotten the bravery of the Qin army and the tiger and wolf army that swept the world!
The Chu people in bunters clung to Zhou Shi's side. The sudden change made him wonder if these Qin troops had been blessed by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi. Their combat power was completely beyond his imagination.
The Chu people have no doubt that if they had not taken advantage of the three-foot-high wall and fought head-on, this Wei army, which in his eyes was absolutely elite and led by General Zhou Shi himself, would have been defeated by the Qin army who no longer knew whether they were humans or ghosts.
Under the attack of the army, it will be defeated in half an hour.
A Chu man who knocked down a ladder by himself was puzzled.
The Wei army had the will to protect the country and its family to the death. The Qin army did not have the country and the family to die, but their will was not inferior at all. How did they do it?
Golden juice was poured down, bad arrows were shot down, and there were so many of them that the Linji city wall looked like a waterfall on a cliff.
Such a powerful and violent impact still could not stop the Qin army from climbing with their shields raised.
Soon, Qin troops began to climb up the city wall along the only remaining ladder. Before they could see the scene clearly, a Wei soldier made a deep mark on his chest with a two-foot bronze sword and fell down.
Climb first, be the first to climb the city wall, if you can't stand, it doesn't count.
Being the first to ascend can become one of the four major military merits because the first to ascend must stabilize the city and create conditions for subsequent siege operations, which is the decisive factor in the success of the siege.
The four major military achievements all have a decisive impact on the battle situation.
The Wei soldiers who personally beheaded Qin's dog were not happy, but had sweaty palms.
If the first one climbs the city wall, there will be a second one.
Once the hole is opened, it is difficult to close it again.
Soon, the number of Qin troops climbing outcrops continued to increase, and the Wei soldiers were forced to engage in close combat. Seeing that the siege battle was about to be dragged into a situation that was favorable to the Qin army, it was coming to an end, and Linji was threatening to be lost!
At the entrance of the city gate, Wei soldiers who changed their defenses rushed up one after another. The Wei army, whose strength had suddenly increased, instantly chopped down and expelled all the Qin troops and knocked down all the ladders.
On the wall of Linji City, the Qin troops fell down like dumplings. Some climbed to a height of one foot, and some climbed to a height of two feet.
The straw that had previously protected them from stones, bad arrows, and gold juice saved their lives once again. With the straw as a cushion, many Qin soldiers who should have died survived and got up quickly regardless of the wounds and pain on their bodies.
, silently setting up the ladder and climbing the ladder.
Their offensive has not slowed down by half, nor has its intensity dropped by half.
But in the face of the Wei army, which was still receiving reinforcements, they had lost hope of victory.
Zhou Shi's pressure suddenly relaxed. Under the protection of all the personal guards, he spit blood at the city and shouted at the black ants:
"Come up! Qin Gou! Father is waiting for you!"
The people of Chu breathed a sigh of relief. Looking at the situation, Linji was saved.
Being suddenly dragged into a fierce battle, they did not notice that there were some flints in the sky, flying much slower than ordinary flints.
And these flints are getting closer and closer to Linji City at this moment.
Bang~
There was another gunshot.
The Linji defenders, who were covered by the sound of flint falling to the ground, heard nothing, but the Qin army's formation was like thunder, and they could hear clearly.
All the flint-throwing chariots stopped, and the continuous roar suddenly disappeared.
Zhou Shi suddenly panicked, and the flames were burning in the direction of Linji. The blazing black bird rushed in from his pupils and burned his heart.
The roar disappeared too suddenly, just like the singing disappeared suddenly.
"Who is leading the army? Who is this general fighting against?"
He roared, knowing yourself and your enemy can fight a hundred battles without danger, but now he only knows himself and does not know his enemy.
Without knowing the enemy's commander, he cannot study his tactics and habits through past battles.
Zhou Shi studied almost all the generals of the Qin army, Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Li Xin, etc., and memorized their combat habits. He thought he would know who was leading the enemy army as soon as the battle started.
"Is it Li Xin who likes to be adventurous and diligent? It looks a bit like...but if it were Li Xin, he would not use a torch to create a useless black bird!"
Zhou Shi led the Wei army to defend for a long time, but he couldn't tell who was leading the army. No general in the Qin State had this kind of tactics.
I can't see what's going on, and I can't see what's going on.
I don’t know what to say, and the mountains are covered with clouds and fog.
Zhou Shi looked around, trying to find an outlet for the panic in his heart.
The singing stopped and the Qin army's offensive surged, but what if the chariots stopped?
He raised his head and saw that there were many flints in the sky that had not fallen and were floating towards them.
[Floating...how can flint float! That's not flint!]
As we got closer, the baskets, animal skins, and the figure of the Qin army next to the one-meter-high flame were vaguely visible.
[These Qin dogs... have gone to heaven...]
His pupils shrank suddenly, and regardless of the shock, Zhou Shi pointed at the hot air balloon in the sky and gave the order in a hoarse voice! Extremely urgent!
"Archers! Shoot down these Qin dogs from the sky!"
The Chu people looked in the direction pointed by Zhou Shi and immediately said urgently:
"General! It's too late! These Qin dogs are too close!"
