Chapter 588 The Korean Army is in a dilemma

"The will of the Qin army is really strong, but it is doomed to be in vain." Le Yi sneered. During this period, Zhao State transported countless military supplies into the royal city. Among them, the arrows necessary for defending the city were lost and piled up on a hill inside the city.

The Qin army's idea of ​​losing all their arrows would eventually come to nothing.

"General, is there anything you need me to do?" Duke Zhou of Western Zhou quickly climbed to the top of the city and asked with a smile.

"Is there any place in the city where there is yellow mud?" Le Cheng thought for a moment and asked.

"This..." The Duke of Western Zhou Dynasty was stunned. After all, he was also the king of a country. How could he know where there was yellow mud in the royal city.

"General, there is a large area of ​​yellow mud in the east of the city near Luoshui. You can dig it out with a shovel." A guard next to him said, cupping his fists.

"Okay, please ask the Duke of Western Zhou to gather the women and children in the city, mix yellow mud with cow and horse hair, knead it into a head-sized mud ball, dry it in the sun or bake it, and transport it to the city wall." Le Cheng said happily.

The inside of the city is no better than the outside. There are stones everywhere. Sooner or later, the stones in the royal city will be used up, and they can only be replaced by mud bombs.

In addition, another advantage of mud bombs is that they will break into pieces after falling on the ground, making it impossible for the Qin army to pick them up and continue to use them.

The disadvantage is that it can only hit people, but cannot destroy catapults.

"I will make arrangements for it." The Duke of Western Zhou nodded repeatedly, "Is there anything else?"

"If possible, letting the King of Zhou board the city to motivate the soldiers can greatly boost morale and undermine the morale of the Qin army." Li Si said.

"To be honest with you, your Majesty... is seriously ill and can't even get out of bed. I'm worried that the people of my country will feel desperate when they find out, so I've been keeping the news secret and not letting anyone know." The Duke of Western Zhou sighed.

Although King Zhou is just a mascot and of no use at ordinary times, at critical moments, it is really impossible without him.

Li Si and Feng Quji looked at each other, and neither of them saw any trace of lying in the eyes of Duke Xi Zhou.

No wonder King Zhou didn't show up even when they came to support him!

It's just that... at King Zhou's age, once he gets sick, it will be serious, and the possibility of being cured can be said to be very slim.

"Our army has a military doctor accompanying the army. The Duke of Western Zhou might as well ask him to diagnose and treat the King of Zhou." Li Si raised his hand and said.

"That's fine." Duke Zhou hesitated for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

He has always been unwilling to let the Three Jin Dynasties come into contact with the King of Zhou. What he was afraid of was that one day the Three Jin Dynasties suddenly learned that the King of Zhou had passed away, abandoned the Western Zhou Kingdom and ran away.

But now he still has to rely on Sanjin to defend the city, and there is nothing he can do to stop it.

I can only leave it to fate.

Li Si gave Feng Quji a look, and Feng Quji nodded without any trace and followed the Duke of Western Zhou down to the city.

"Is there any problem?" Le Cheng noticed the little moves between Li Si and Feng Quji and asked in a low voice.

"Nothing, just to know accurately the time of King Zhou's death." Li Si shook his head.

Upon seeing this, Le Cheng did not continue to ask questions and continued to command the army to fight.

At Li Si's suggestion, Le Cheng mixed the Western Zhou army and the Zhao army together, with each Zhao army leading one or two Western Zhou troops.

At this time, the Qin army's siege was not too fierce, so Le Cheng asked the Western Zhou army to be responsible for the defense, and Quan was allowed to practice his skills.

In this regard, the Western Zhou Dynasty could not say anything.

After all, it is the Western Zhou Kingdom that is being beaten. If you, the Western Zhou Kingdom, don’t stand up for you, how can you still expect Zhao to protect you?

"Why do I feel that the Qin army's attack is not as fierce as before?" Jia Yan said with a frown.

Although the Qin army at the front had crossed the moat on ladders, it was still far behind the Qin army in Jia Yan's impression.

During the Battle of Changping, not counting the Qin army led by Bai Qi later, the army led by Wang Lu alone was much stronger than it is now.

Moreover, Jia Yan knew Wang Hao's talent. After stacking attacks for such a long time, it stands to reason that he should explode.

If the Qin army was only of this strength, then he could conclude that the 200,000 Qin army was just wishful thinking if they wanted to attack the royal city!

Zhao Guoke was constantly transporting food and armaments to the royal city from the rear.

But what Jia Yan didn't know was that the battlefield in the south of the city guarded by the Korean army was much more intense than in the west of the city.

Among the three Jins, the Korean army is the weakest, and its ability is to save lives, but it has the worst ability to defend the city. Therefore, after Zhang Ruo understood the situation, he very wisely chose the Korean army as a breakthrough point.

On the ground outside the city, driven by the Qin army, one after another, like ancient giant beasts, rumbled towards the royal city.

These fén wēn carts are all made of thick wood as a peripheral frame, with four wheels underneath, and the top is covered with wood like a roof. The wood is covered with rawhide, and a thick layer of rawhide is applied to it.

The thin mud prevents the enemy from using fire attacks.

The cart was filled with sandbags, and more than ten Qin soldiers were pushing the cart. They wanted to transport the sandbags to the moat to fill it up.

It is difficult to make an anemone chariot, and only skilled craftsmen can build it. Even if the Qin army kept building it, the number was not large enough to support the three-sided battlefield.

Therefore, except for the battlefield in the south of the city, the other two places can only be filled with lives.

Zhang Ruo doesn't want to do this, but this is the only option.

If you divide the few chrysanthemums into three battlefields, it will only delay the capture of the royal city.

Of course, the Qin army could also attack only one side, but in this case, the Three Jin Dynasties and the Western Zhou Dynasty would only have to defend one side, and the Qin army's advantage of having more troops would no longer be an advantage.

Compared with the other two battlefields, the Qin army in the south of the city was undoubtedly lucky. The solid body of the churron covered them with all arrows. Even if a huge stone hit it, it would only make a loud noise and leave a deep pit.

, it is still safe and sound inside.

The chariot drove to the moat, and several Qin soldiers quickly threw sandbags into the moat, and then pushed the chariot away.

"Attack with fire!" Looking at the narrowing moat, Zhou Jiang, the general of the Western Zhou Dynasty, was worried.

The royal city relies on the moat and the city wall. If the Qin army is allowed to cross the moat and then climb the city wall, it would be a fool's errand to rely on the combat power of the Han army and the Western Zhou army to block the Qin army.

"It's useless. The Qin army's trammel vehicles are covered with a layer of mud to insulate them from the flames." Bao Luan said in a deep voice, "The only way is to send a small team to destroy these trammel vehicles. The Qin army's center

There can't be many chevrons. As long as we destroy them all, the Qin army will not be able to attack the city with churns for a long time."

"Then send troops." Zhou Jiang said urgently.

Bao Luan remained silent.

In terms of frontal combat, the Han army and the Western Zhou army were not at the same level as the Qin army. If the city gates were opened, if nothing unexpected happened, as many people as they sent would die.

Unless Zhao Jun and Wei Jun are persuaded to support them.

But the Three Jin Dynasties had agreed before that the strongest Zhao army would defend the west of the city where the Qin army was mainly attacking, the Han army and the Wei army would defend the south and north of the city, and the east of the city would be Luoshui. If the Qin army was not stupid, they would not attack from the east of the city.

city.

As a result, the Qin army now gave up all its previous efforts and changed its main attack direction from the west of the city to the south.

This is very painful.

Let Zhao Wei send troops to reinforce?

Why?

Why do all the good things belong to your Han army, but the fatal work has to be left to our Zhao army and Wei army?

To put it bluntly, most of Sanchuan belongs to you, South Korea.

The Qin State attacked not only the Western Zhou State, but also Korea.

In the end, good guys, you two were beaten and didn't take action, so let us Zhao and Wei reinforcements take action?

Luan Luan was so embarrassed thinking about these words that she couldn't say them out loud at all.
