Chapter 624: Capture the Fortress

"What did he think?" Li Si pointed at Zhu Feng with his chin. This was the first time he saw someone who dared to fight against the entire army.

"Then who knows, the accent doesn't sound like a Qin person, but probably a barbarian. The Hu people in the north advocate personal force and like to fight one-on-one. I guess the barbarians are about the same." Le Cheng rubbed his sore shoulders. If he could survive the fight,

He doesn't mind a duel with the other party. After all, male animals have a pursuit and worship of power engraved in their genes.

However, Zhu Feng was too strong, and he obviously didn't know how to command the battle. He didn't even control the basic battle formations, and relied entirely on his personal force. Le Cheng would only challenge the opponent in a one-on-one duel if he was mentally ill.

"It seems that the Hu people and Qiang people around us are better at single combat." Deputy General Du Sheng said.

"The harsh environment of the grasslands and mountains means that only the strong can protect the entire tribe, so they have established a personal worship of force since childhood, fighting with people, wolves, tigers and bears. Some tribes select leaders who are

Relying on dueling, the strongest person becomes the leader. If you grow up in that kind of environment, how can you not be great in dueling?"

"But the principles of China are different. The stable output of agriculture means that competition in the Central Plains is not as fierce as in the grasslands. In addition to survival, we must also pursue development. Development does not rely on force, but on brains. It does not rely on individuals, but on groups.

.So compared to force, the Central Plains values ​​wisdom more. Comparing to individuals, they value groups more.”

"On the battlefield in the Central Plains, it is rare to see two people fighting in front of each other, unless they are very confident in themselves. We usually use legions as units, and tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of troops fight together. However, we in the Central Plains also have many powerful individuals.

, but generals who don’t know how to command can only lead a legion at most and can barely support it by relying on personal force. If they take more than one, they will fall apart. Moreover, if a brave warrior encounters a general who is stronger than himself, he will

He is so restrained that there is almost no possibility of victory." Li Si explained.

"There is still a future in taking the route of commanding an army, but taking the route of personal force is too restrictive." Le Cheng nodded.

But what the two of them didn't know was that a few decades later, in China, there would be a god who could truly defeat an army by himself, and his battlefield command abilities would also be perfect.

"This Qin general has brought 10,000 people, which is nearly two legions." Deputy General Du Sheng said.

"It is probably a model set by the Qin State in order to appease the southern barbarians." Li Si said with a smile. Generally speaking, when countries conquer a certain place, they will select one or two people from the local area as models to appease the locals.

It can be seen from the strength of Qin generals that his status among the southern barbarians is definitely very high. As long as he shows his willingness to get close to Qin, it is normal for him to be selected.

However, Wang Hao probably did not expect that Zhao Jun would rush to the battlefield so quickly, otherwise he would never send such a strong-limbed and simple-minded general to lead the army alone.

The general was unconscious, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. The Qin army was already on the verge of collapse, but now it couldn't hold on anymore. The string in its heart was cut off by Zhao Jun, and it fell into chaos.

Shouting victory, the Zhao army rushed towards the Qin army, "Puff, puff, puff!" There was a burst of crazy banging and slashing, and the Qin army's defense line was torn into pieces.

What was torn apart along with the defense line was the belief of the Qin army. They looked at the Zhao army coming towards them from all directions, densely packed and with the sound of horse hooves, no one knew how many there were.

At this moment, the Qin army was completely panicked and could no longer organize an effective counterattack.

A small number of elite Qin soldiers gathered together, relying on each other, and wanted to fight out, but were quickly wiped out by Zhao Jun. More Qin soldiers were killed by Zhao Jun in madness and confusion.

Stimulated by Jingguan, the murderous intention in Le Cheng's heart had already overflowed. Even though the Qin army knelt down and surrendered, Le Cheng still did not give the order to stop.

The smell of blood in the air became stronger and stronger, and the blood gathered into a river on the ground. The ground was filled with shocking corpses.

Zhao Jun had already become red-blooded, so when his horse's shaft broke, he changed his sword, and when his sword curled, he changed his weapon to a short spear.

The Qin army seemed to understand that surrender could not earn Zhao Jun's mercy, and began to stand up and resist with gritted teeth, using flesh and blood to resist the impact of the cavalry.

But in the face of the huge gap in strength, resistance is ultimately futile.

The Qin army is constantly decreasing...

As the sun set, violent vibrations came from the end of the earth. Le Cheng looked up and saw two big flags of 'Qin' and 'King' coming into view.

"Remove!" Le Cheng shouted, picked up the Qin general on the ground, turned around and retreated away.

Although the Zhao army still has the strength to fight, the main force of the Qin army has arrived, and it is obviously not suitable to continue fighting at this time.

"It's still a step too late." Wang Hao looked at Zhao Jun going away, his face suddenly darkened, and he wanted to order a pursuit, but finally gave up rationally.

"Why did the Qin army come so quickly? Wang Lu personally led the army. Didn't General Qin say before that the army was stationed outside Xingyang City? It seems that he was not telling the truth. Wang Lu was already dispatched. It was definitely not as simple as attacking the city. The Qin Army

They probably want to use Han Great Wall as the first line of defense." Li Si thought for a moment and roughly guessed Wang Lu's plan.

But it was obvious that Le Yi was more skilled and sent them to break through the Han Great Wall first.

"The Qin army below has three options. The first is to surround us and kill us, or drive us out of the Great Wall. However, we are cavalry. Although we are not good at speed, we are not something that the infantry of the Qin army can catch up with. I just don't know that Qin Jun

No matter how many cavalry there are, if the number exceeds 10,000, they will still pose some threat."

"The second option is to fight our army in Yuanyong or Xiuyu. With the Great Wall as a support, you can wait for work. The third option is to retreat to Jishui, but the Qin army's grain and grass need to be transported from Jishui to Daliang. Unless it is a last resort, Wang

It is impossible for Lu to retreat to Jishui."

"If nothing else happens, he should find a way to annihilate us. If he cannot annihilate us, he will choose to fight our army in Yuanyong or Xiuyu. Finally, he will retreat to Jishui."

After thinking about it, Li Si's next plan became much clearer.

"Let's attack the city." Li Si said to Le Cheng.

Hu City is located on the south bank of the Yellow River. After capturing Hu City, Zhao Jun can gain a foothold within the Great Wall. At the same time, Zhao Jun's grain and grass can also be transported directly from Handan to Hu City.

Moreover, after occupying Hu City, you can attack Yuanyong from the northwest, causing Yuanyong to lose the support of the Great Wall.

"Okay." Lecheng had no objection.

"Let me go." At this time, a humanoid creature that was tied up like a rice dumpling shouted.

"I woke up so quickly. It seems that my vitality is quite strong." Le Cheng glanced down, took out a broad knife from his horse bag, and hit Zhu Feng hard on the head with the back of the knife.

"Don't kill me. After all, you are still in the Transcendent Realm. Even if you don't know how to command, you can still be a strong general on the battlefield." Li Si said. There are not many Transcendent Realms in any country.

"Don't worry, with his strength, he won't be able to kill him with a few more hits." Le Cheng said nonchalantly.

After running for half an hour, Zhao Jun probably dismounted and set up camp to prepare food.

Zhu Feng slowly opened his eyes. This time he did not yell, for fear that the insidious and cunning General Zhao would do something to him again.

"The Qin army responded quite quickly. I'm a little unsure as to when I hope you will come." Le Cheng took out a few pieces of dried meat from his horse bag and threw them into the pot.

These dried meats are salted and sun-dried. There is no need to add salt when cooking. After cooking, they are perfect with rice or thick porridge.

Le Cheng suddenly thought that he didn't know who he heard from, and asked for nutritional supplements, so he grabbed a handful of dried kelp from the horse bag and threw it into the pot.

"One meat and one vegetable, one from land and one from the sea, the nutrition should be matched." Le Cheng said happily.

"When I was in the military camp, I disliked the food cooked by those cooks. Now that it was my turn, I realized that the food cooked by those cooks was even worse." Wang Ping, a thousand-man general, hacked himself to death after eating the food he cooked.

The heart is there.

"I think we should bring the cook with us next time we go out." Deputy General Du Sheng nodded.

"Come here, will the cook follow you to death?" Le Cheng rolled his eyes and picked up a large piece of kelp, "Everyone, eat quickly and rest immediately after eating. We will attack the city early tomorrow morning."

"Would you like to give him something to eat?" Li Si pointed at Zhu Feng.

"Don't worry about it, he is so strong that he will starve to death if he doesn't eat for ten days and a half." Le Cheng said, putting another large piece of meat in the bowl.

"Do you usually eat this?" Zhu Feng couldn't help smelling the tempting aroma.

"Otherwise? What do you eat?" Du Sheng asked curiously.

"We can eat whatever we want. We can go hunting in the mountains and have enough meat." Zhu Feng said proudly.

"Oh." Du Sheng nodded. With Zhu Feng's strength, he believed that he could eat whatever he wanted.

"Can you guys...can you give me a bite?" Zhu Feng saw that Zhao Jun was eating deliciously. He swallowed and couldn't help but begged. Qin Jun only eats two meals a day, and his last meal was in the morning.

I'm very hungry now.

"What's your name?" Lecheng asked.

"Zhu Feng."

"I will give you something to eat if you surrender to our country, Zhao." Le Cheng said.

"Surrender, surrender." Zhu Feng said nonchalantly. He had joined the Qin State not long ago and had no sense of belonging to the Qin State.

"..." Seeing that Zhu Feng didn't hesitate at all, Le Cheng hesitated instead. It couldn't be a false surrender. Who in the extraordinary realm would be so spineless.

But Zhu Feng didn't look like someone who would feign surrender.

"But I can't help you deal with the Qin State. My people are in the Qin State. If the Qin State sees me surrendering to you, it may take revenge on my people." Zhu Feng said.

"Okay." Le Cheng nodded and untied Zhu Feng.

Zhu Feng was not the first to ask for this, Qiang Xu, who was captured before, also had this condition.

However, Qiang You was much more courageous than Zhu Feng. He did not surrender until after Handan when he found that he had no hope of escaping.

"Thank you." Zhu Feng moved his wrist, took a bowl without politeness, and took a large piece of meat from the pot.

Du Sheng stared at the piece of meat, which was for the three of them.

Although the Zhao army had good food, it was impossible for him to eat enough meat when he was away on an expedition. Even the generals were subject to quotas.

"Take another two pieces, count them as mine, count them as mine." Le Cheng said quickly, the value of a transcendent realm general cannot be compared with a few pieces of meat.

The next day, before dawn, Zhao Jun quietly came to the outside of the city under the cover of night. At this time, the city gate had not been opened, and several soldiers on the city were walking back and forth listlessly.

"There don't seem to be many defenders in the city?" Le Cheng said.

"Attack directly." Li Si said decisively. Youyun Cavalry is not afraid of ordinary bows, arrows, rolling stones, etc., and can completely withstand the Qin army's attack and capture the city.

"Okay." Le Cheng was also very decisive. Ma Shan waved forward and withdrew the Xu Lin Formation. Covered by the strong wind formation, he rushed towards Hu City at the fastest speed.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Soon, the defenders on the city discovered the traces of Zhao Jun and blew the horn.

"What's going on?" The Qin Army guard general climbed up to the city gate and saw Zhao Jun. He couldn't help but panic. Hu City is a small city with only a thousand defenders, and they have to prevent the people in the city from causing chaos. The size of Zhao's army must be at least five or six

Qian, "Immediately summon all the soldiers to guard the city and tell the Guizhou leaders in the city that no one is allowed to go out."

"Prepare your bows and arrows, and wait until Zhao Jun gets close before shooting." The guard gradually calmed down. Zhao Jun was a cavalry force. Although it was powerful, it was not suitable for attacking the city. He still had hope.

"Die." Le Cheng took out four bows and arrows from his back, aimed at the top of the city and shot them. Four red rays of light pierced the sky and sank into the bodies of the Qin soldiers. Two Qin soldiers were shot in the head, and two Qin soldiers were shot through the chest.

Pass.

Le Cheng took back his bow and arrows, replaced them with his horse, and continued to rush forward despite the Qin army's arrow rain.

"How is this possible!" the guard exclaimed.

A wave of arrows rained down, and not a single one of Zhao's troops fell off their horses. How could we fight this battle?

Le Cheng looked at the city gate that was getting closer and closer, and slowly waved his horse's hand. The speed gradually increased, and the weather aura began to gather in his body.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhu Feng gave Le Cheng a solemn look, and he felt the power threatening him from Le Cheng.

"Broken!" Le Cheng mobilized the power of his legions to slash at the gate of Hu City. There was only a "boom" sound, and the gate instantly fell into pieces, with sawdust and copper pieces flying all over the sky.

"Charge!" Le Cheng took the lead and rushed into the city, killing the Qin army.

It only took him a few such legion attacks to drain the entire army. If he hadn't known that there would be no elite legions stationed in the city, Le Cheng wouldn't have been able to use legion attacks right away.

But it was very effective. It took the lead and completely destroyed the Qin army's momentum.

"We surrender." Zhao Jun, the Qin army guard general, rushed in and dropped his weapons and surrendered without saying a word.

"All tied up." Le Cheng waved his hand.

"Call the previous city chief or county magistrate and tell them that I have something to say to them," Li Si said.

"Zhao Jun finally came to save us. Thank you very much, little old man, Zhao Jun." The Hucheng County Magistrate was an old man. After seeing Zhao Jun, he was extremely excited and burst into tears of gratitude. I don't know how true it was and how false it was.

"Okay. The city of Hu is now under the control of our Zhao army. Please help the county magistrate prepare a place for us to live. The rest will return to normal. How were you before and how will you be in the future. By the way, the Qin army is outside now. It would be best if nothing goes wrong.

Don't leave the city." Li Si waved.

Hu City is far away from Zhao State, and Zhao State must be returned to South Korea after the war. Li Si does not have the energy to take care of the affairs of Hu City, as long as he does not come to cause trouble for Zhao Jun.

"Thank you, Zhao Jun. Thank you, Zhao Jun." The Hucheng County Magistrate kept bending down and saluting.

The Qin army guard general's face was not very good-looking. When they entered Hu City, the Hucheng County Magistrate did not have this attitude.

"What should we do next?" After arranging the defense, Le Cheng found Li Si.

"Guard the city and wait for you," Li Si said.

They have already seized the opportunity, and their numbers are limited. It is difficult to gain an advantage against the main force of the Qin army. Instead of taking risks, it is better to be safe.
