I’m The King Chapter 470: : Battle to the Death (Part 2)

The soldiers of Tianhe County who attacked Jishi City were still launching a tentative attack. They didn't even get close to the moat.

There was no temptation, no false attack, from the very beginning, it was a cruel risk of life, life for life, the degree of tragedy made Hu Yanchao and Tan Feng under the banner of the Yan Army's Central Army deeply frowned. He frowned.

On Jishi Mountain, there are only a few hundred defenders, but the attackers are more than ten times their number. Lei Jin, the commander of the vanguard battalion alone, has put in 2,000 troops in the first wave.

There is nothing wrong with Lei Jin's style of play. The only thing he didn't expect was that the defenders on this mountain were so brave and fearless. At that time, there were nearly a thousand casualties, Lei Jin's eyes were red, and he immediately invested in the second wave of fresh troops to replace the first wave of attackers.

The second wave of 2,000 people entered the battlefield, and the battle finally reversed. The mountain roads fell one after another. He Chong led the surviving people back to the last line of defense. In front of them was a gentle **** about 100 meters wide. Here, the enemy has begun to form, and their geographical advantage has been further weakened.

Lei Jin stood on the last mountain path, looking at the top of the mountain. There is still a hundred meters left before he can capture the opponent's position and wipe out the opponent completely. However, this one hundred meters will inevitably be stained red with blood. By this time, there was no room for hesitation. With a wave of his hands, iron shields were in front of him. Yan Jun bent his waist, tried to hide his body behind the shield wall as much as possible, and began to move forward.

"Roll the log!" He Chong shouted, wiping the blood off his face. I don't know when he was injured, blood flowed down from his head, covering his eyes from time to time, and the scene in front of him turned blood red.

The ramp is smooth without any obstructions. Logs were thrown down from the top of the ramp one by one, and rolled down the long ramp. Amidst the exclamation, the shield soldiers were thrown into chaos by the logs, and they were turned over.

Without the protection of the shield soldiers, the soldiers behind were immediately exposed to the range of the crossbow arrows on the top of the mountain. Amidst the roar of the arrows, one by one the soldiers fell to the ground and rolled along the **** Will go down.

"Put wooden stakes on the ramp to stop the rolling logs." Lei Jin ordered.

The shield soldiers regrouped. Behind them, the soldiers who followed used a sledgehammer to smash wooden piles into the ground every few meters. As the shield soldiers advanced layer by layer, the hillside was covered with wooden piles in disorder. When the rolling logs were lowered again, after breaking several wooden stakes, they stopped, unable to cause any more damage.

Rolling the wood is useless. The morale of the Yan army was immediately boosted, and the upward speed immediately increased greatly.

"Throw all the crossbow arrows!" He Chong picked up a stone, "While the devil is hiding the arrows, use the stone to kill these bastards!"

One by one crossbow arrows were thrown into the air, then turned their heads downward, and got into the crowd, disturbing the attacking crowd. One shield after another was raised above the head to resist the sharp arrows falling from the top of the head.

"Smash!" He Chong jumped up, holding up a stone with both hands. It was smashed down hard. The stone tumbled and fell to the ground, bounced off, and headed down at an even faster speed.

Countless stones were thrown out by the soldiers of the Zhengdong Army, rolling, jumping, and rushing towards the Yan Army. The stakes can stop the log, but they can't do anything about these round stones.

On the gentle slope, countless Yan troops lay down again.

Hu Yanchao's eyes twitched in the distance, and he pressed the handle of the knife with his hand, looking back at Tan Feng, "Master Tan, I will go in person."

Tan Feng shook his head, "No need, they are at the end of their strength, so tell Lei Jin to use a trebuchet to throw fire bombs on me, scorching them with fire. Simple stone bombs won't work on them, they won't hit them , but fire is different.”

Hu Yanchao was stunned, and couldn't help but patted his head. He was really confused. On the top of Jishi Mountain, there were so many trees planted. When the fire broke out, even the iron man would be burnt to the ground. Don't worry if they don't Come out, as long as they come out, it will be their end.

"Come here!" Hu Yanchao stretched out his hand, "Get some grease from the logistics, tell Lei Jin, use fire to attack, ignite the trees on the mountain, and force these shrinking turtles out."

Seeing the messengers fly away, Tan Feng shook his head, "Zhengdong's soldiers are good at fighting, and their reputation is well-deserved. When I worked with Gao Yuan in Yuyang, his soldiers were not as brave as they are today, but In two years, his soldiers have risen to the next level, this person is really a talent."

Hearing Tan Feng's long and short sighs, Hu Yanchao couldn't help squinting at Tan Feng, "Since Commander Tan cherishes talents so much, why must he put this person to death?"

Tan Feng smiled slightly when he heard the words, "You don't know this person. I want to kill him for two reasons. First, if there is a choice between this person and Langya County, I want Langya. Langya has millions The people have countless fertile fields, and their wealth is second only to Tianhe County. If Gao Yuan is not dead, Langya cannot be nationalized. So no matter how rich he is, what does he have to do with Dayan? This man is talented, but he is not necessarily loyal to Dayan. Just look at him privately building a city here, recruiting the Huns, attacking Hejian, and almost wiped out Yan Shenghao's strength. His father-in-law vented his anger? Is it because the ulterior motives are not in the bar? General Hu, think about it, now Liaoxi has been abolished, if you don’t kill Gao Yuan, do you think Zhang Junbao is his opponent? I’m afraid it won’t take long for Liaoxi to Returning to Gaoyuan. If Langya, Liaoxi, and Hejian County all belong to Gaoyuan, then our Dayan is still Dayan? With this talent, maybe we will change our surname to Gao."

Hu Yanchao remained silent.

"In the Niulanshan camp, I had a deep talk with you and got your consensus. This time, the king, me, and Zhou Yu conspired to overthrow Mr. Ning. The fiefdoms were nationalized, and then gradually established a system of prefectures and counties like the Qin State, and tried their best to strengthen the centralization of power, pool the power of the whole country, and prepare for possible drastic changes in the future. It has been going smoothly, but Never thought that our conquest of Donghu would fail."

Speaking of this, Tan Feng lowered his head deeply, his expression of frustration could not be concealed, "A no suspenseful Eastern Expedition ended up like this, Taiwei Zhou cannot shirk his guilt. If not If he is greedy for merit and advances aggressively, but is steady and steady, how could it become like this? Time is fate, the original plan was for me to win Lord Ning here, and after Zhou Taiwei defeated Donghu, he would definitely kill him Gao Yuan, and when he moves back to the court, we can use Zhou Yu as evidence. In addition to Zhou Taiwei’s other illegal deeds, we will take Zhou Taiwei down again. In this way, it will be counted. You're done. I've been in charge of Yan Lingwei for more than two years, and I've basically controlled Yan Lingwei without making a fuss. This is why Lord Baining trusts me so much. And with Zhou Yu, we can also firmly control it Standing army, such a smooth transition. It was the most secure, but once the conquest of Donghu was defeated, we almost lost everything!"

Hu Yanchao nodded, "The painstaking efforts of Commander Tan and General Zhou. I already understood in the Niulanshan camp. The two of you want to revitalize Dayan. I naturally support you. Both of you are Mr. Guijie. I I heard that Master Ning has his only daughter betrothed to Tan as the commander, and General Zhou Yu is a member of the Zhou clan, although he is a partial branch. But he has not yet released five clothes, and both of them can do the same. Help, I just don't understand, you two..."

"Are you trying to say why we have to kill relatives righteously?"

The corners of Hu Yanchao's mouth twitched slightly, but it was difficult for him to say these words.

"If there is no skin, how can the hair be attached?" Tan Feng was silent for a while, "If you can't even keep the Yan, what kind of family are you talking about? Zhao Guo is now strong in the outside world, but there are still people like Zhao Mu and others supporting him. If Zhao Mu and Zilan go away, the state of Zhao will collapse, and the people of Qin come to the east. How can we protect ourselves? By doing this, we can not only save Dayan, but also protect the family. Mrs. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, because Zhou Yu and I will not encounter the fate of Mrs. Ye and Mrs. Linghu, but just lie in bed for a few years. Therefore, General Hu used the wrong way to kill relatives with righteousness. It's just the Zhou family and the Ning family's direct lineage, and what they lost is just some wealth. If the fat and water don't flow to outsiders, these wealth will eventually flow into Dayan's treasury and become swords, bows, arrows, and war horses. If it is the people of Qin in the future If you call, it will all belong to outsiders."

"Can't Zhao Guo stop the people of Qin?" Hu Yanchao asked in surprise, "They are a big country second only to Qin."

"If Zilan is the king of Zhao, it is still possible. Zilan is in charge of the inside and Zhao Mu is in charge of the outside. The state of Zhao must be strong enough to threaten the state of Qin, but it is precisely because the two are too strong that Zhao Wuji is afraid of two At the extreme, Zi Lan was kicked out of Handan, Zhao Mu was reappointed, but he was still in trouble, and Zhao Qi went back again!" Tan Feng sneered, "Zhao Wou-ki seems to be shrewd and capable, but in reality he is short-sighted. Even if the state of Zhao does not perish at his hands, it will surely be his grave that will perish in the future."

"What should we do now?" Hu Yanchao looked at Jishi Mountain in the midst of fierce battle, his eyes were full of sorrow.

"Man is not as good as God. We have calculated everything, but Zhou Taiwei will fail. But the arrow is on the string, and we have to let it go. Since the facts cannot be changed, we should try our best to recover some losses. "The depression on Tan Feng's face gradually disappeared, "Fortunately, Dong Husup is a sober person~IndoMTL.com~ In this way, we have room for buffering, as long as we eliminate the high-yuan forces, we will stabilize Dongfang. Situation, take back Liaoxi, Langya, and Yan Shenghao from Hejian, since he has no capital, let him go to retire. With capital in these places, he will finally have the capital to make money. Since Thorpe is willing to do business with us, then we Let him satisfy him, exchange for horses, form a strong cavalry, Gao Yuan can recruit the Huns, can't we?"

"Commander Tan, have you ever thought about what to do if we fail to destroy Gao Yuan?" Hu Yanchao asked.

Tan Feng's body shook, and he said after a while: "So Zhou Yu went to the grassland, and I transferred you here. We can't afford to lose this battle. If we lose, Dayan will lose. So, General Hu, please work hard!"

Tan Feng leaned over immediately.

Hu Yanchao turned his head silently and looked at Jishi Mountain. There, it had turned into a sea of ​​flames. In the sea of ​​flames, the Zhengdong Army in navy blue costumes rushed out. Most of them were burning. Flame, holding a knife and gun like this, launched the last attack in their lives along the gentle **** towards the attacking Yan army.

"Jishi Mountain has been captured!" Hu Yanchao sighed, "Next, let's break through Jishi City!" (To be continued..)u
