Chapter 28: Defeat Feiqiu with absolute hard power
The heavy infantry advanced slowly in front, followed by huge siege engines.
At the back is a row of torsion trebuchets and a row of three-machine crossbows.
"Poison dragon fire-breathing canister, release!"
"Three-machine crossbow, launch!"
Sima Xin and Zhang Han started to persuade each other to surrender, but now they are quarreling with each other, and they are at a disadvantage one-on-one.
Zhang Han and Dong Yi were squirting happily, and when Sima Xin gradually became unable to resist, densely packed bamboo tubes with tail flames flew over his head towards the head of Feiqiu City.
The explosion sounded, and the screams from the top of the city could be heard from far away.
The smoke was billowing, and the vision was blurred. It was impossible to see the situation below the city clearly.
What's even more abominable is that the thick smoke also contained milky white poisonous gas, which blinded the defenders almost instantly. Many soldiers foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground losing their fighting ability.
Zhang Han never expected that Ziying was an emperor after all. He was a gentleman before, but now he was so despicable.
They called Sima Xin to persuade them to surrender, but they started fighting without any results.
Hearing the sound of military formations approaching quickly from the city, with loud shouts of killing, Zhang Han drew his sword and became furious: "Don't panic, shoot arrows at the city, pour gold juice, hurry up, throw stones, hurry up."
"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" A huge sound of breaking wind sounded, and Zhang Han vaguely saw a spear flying toward him in the thick smoke. His long-term battlefield experience made him quickly turn his head.
But he didn't expect that the spear passed by his ear, and the wind pressure alone blew off a small part of his ear. Blood spattered on his neck. When he touched it, it was still warm, and he was so frightened that he immediately retreated behind the soldier's shield.
"Pfft, pfft! Pfft!"
"Ah! Ah! Ah!" Before he could react what was going on, screams continued to sound from all around, and there was a voice he was very familiar with.
It was Dong Yi. He hurried over to see what was going on, but saw a scene he would never forget.
Dong Yi's entire body was penetrated by a spear and was almost broken into two parts. The huge impact drove him half a meter deep into the gap in the wall at the top of the city.
And Dong Yi was wearing the best armor in the world, but he still couldn't avoid the tragic end of having his intestines pierced and his stomach rotten.
What kind of power does it take to throw such a spear to produce such an effect?
There was still thick smoke outside, the strange bamboo tubes were still firing, and the powerful spears were still flying with terrifying wind pressure. The top of the city had long been turned into a slaughterhouse, and even the city walls were riddled with holes.
Under the city wall, the heavy armored infantry of the Qin Army were already guarding the siege vehicles and ramming against the city gate.
Zhang Han knew all this, but was powerless.
He could only huddle in a blind corner at the top of the city, looking at the purgatory-like scene, and mechanically shouting the order "Get on top of me", but no one listened anymore.
Because as soon as it appears, there will be no whole corpse inside, and no one in this world is not afraid of death.
Even if a few deserters were killed on the spot, it would not help.
Since joining the army, I have never experienced such humiliation.
In the desperate situation, Zhang Han quickly came to his senses and made what he thought was the most correct decision at the time.
"Yes, withdraw, withdraw. I still have hundreds of thousands of troops. I don't believe they can stop me."
Having made up his mind, Zhang Han sent his men to hold on to the city gate, and at the same time led his men and horses to retreat towards Xi Chu, while riding fast to report the news to Xiang Yu.
Under the city gate, the Yong army was holding on to the city gate that was about to open. Unexpectedly, a group of Qin troops suddenly appeared from the surrounding streets and rushed directly towards the soldiers under the city gate.
This group of people was extremely brave and fearless of death. The defenders who held the city gate were attacked from both sides and were quickly defeated. The Qin army filed in.
Zhang Han hurried home to take his wife and children with him, but found that his home had been looted and his wife and children had disappeared.
The Qin army's shouts of killing soon sounded outside. You didn't need to think about it to know what was going on.
According to the Qin army's order of succession, for a traitorous general like himself, his family would definitely die.
Zhang Han screamed in grief and anger, and then led his men and galloped away.
The Qin army entered the city and used Zhuge's crossbows to kill those who dared to resist. Those who surrendered were immediately taken over by the surrender team that followed, and the entire city was quickly recovered.
Li Feng entered Prince Yong's Mansion, looked at the luxurious decoration, shook his head, and then summoned the military chief.
"In passing the order, when the army enters the city, it must make sure no one commits any crime, win the hearts of the people, maintain public order, and kill those who disobey the order."
"promise!"
The order had just been issued when Su Du hurried in from outside: "Your Majesty, the city has been stabilized and there are countless surrenders. Only Zhang Han ran away with dozens of cavalry, and Bai Zhan is chasing him."
"What? If you can make him run away like this, what are you going to do with the Falcon Dragon Guard in vain?"
Li Feng waved the chief clerk to leave and looked at Su Du: "Where is Zhang Han's family?"
"They have all been imprisoned."
"Okay, no one is allowed to come near for the time being, let alone harm them. I keep them for some purpose."
"You will finally understand!"
Li Feng added: "It will be a long night and many dreams. You immediately send troops to recapture Gaonu, Xianyang and other places, and then immediately start to restore the Hangu Pass defense line to prevent Xiang Yu from attacking."
"Yes, I will set off right now."
Su Du retreated and Li Feng walked out of the hall: "Come here, please change my clothes. I will personally appease the people and surrender the troops."
.....
On the trail leading to Xichu, Zhang Han was hungry, thirsty, and in a state of embarrassment. He led a dozen of his men to escape to a small river, and was about to rest for a while and drink water.
Suddenly, the sound of horse hoofbeats sounded from behind, and his subordinates were frightened and panicked: "King Yong, hurry up, the Qin army is catching up."
"Quick, get on your horse!"
"Whoosh! Whoosh!" Several sharp arrows flew over, killing those who could not get on their horses in time.
The rest of the people didn't dare to look behind them and could only continue running wildly.
The strange weapon in the opponent's hand is so powerful that the shooting is faster and more accurate than the bow and arrow in his own hand.
The strange long knives in their hands were also very terrifying, and the halberds were almost cut in pieces. Coupled with the morale of the army, the army of hundreds of thousands was defeated with almost no resistance and was defeated.
The sound of "Whoosh! Whoosh!" behind them continued, and companions fell off their horses from time to time. A group of people were slaughtered like lambs to be slaughtered. They had no power to resist and had lost the idea of ​​resistance.
Soon, only a few people were left around Zhang Han.
Zhang Han looked back and saw that not far behind him, Bai Zhan was actually chasing him.
"King Yong, leave quickly. I'll wait for you." Several loyal men stopped and prepared to intercept Bai Zhan. Zhang Han was not polite and immediately turned around and continued to escape.
"Anyone who stands in my way will die!" Bai Zhan swung his Qin sword and chopped off two heads. The Falcon Dragon Guard behind him followed suit, and several other Zhang Han's cronies immediately lost their heads.
The distance between the two kept getting closer. Bai Zhan took out his bow and shot Zhang Han's horse in the butt with an arrow.
The war horse stopped and was hit by several Zhuge's crossbows. Finally, it could no longer hold up and fell to the ground.
