Chapter 228 Siege

"Donggulongdongdongdongdongdongdongdong..."

The sound of war drums shook over the battlefield between the two armies, causing the world to surging.

Because the Qin army was condescending, the range was naturally farther than that of the Zhao army.

The moment the Zhao army entered the Qin army's range, the Qin army archers ruthlessly shot their arrows. The rain of arrows roared towards the Zhao army's long snake formation.

As the rain of arrows roared, the sound of Zhao's war drums became louder.

"Run over quickly." Zhao's generals understood that in order to suppress the Qin army, they must attack for a distance again within the range of the Qin army.

All the rattan players standing in front raised their shields to protect their vital bodies, and at the same time used the knife in their hands to knock some arrows away. Behind them, the archers of Zhao State bent their waists slightly and followed closely behind the rattan players in small steps.

All the Zhao archers bent their bows and arrows. Once they enter the range, they will shoot a rain of arrows as soon as possible to suppress the archers on the top of the Qin army.

Although rattan players can protect the shooting of bows and arrows, they are not completely missing.

As the first wave of arrow rains of the Qin army came, the Zhao army kept falling into the ground with arrows in the hand of rattan cards. Often, the shields would reveal flaws when the arrow rains of the Qin army came. Then the arrow rains of the rear would shoot the rattan player and the Zhao army archers behind them.

The scene was tragic in an instant.

Just after the first round of arrow rain in the Qin army, the Zhao army launched a small charge and quickly crossed the last distance of their range and entered the range that could be attacked.

The archer hiding behind the rattan player immediately came with a round of scattering.

The archers of Qin and Zhao countries fought for the first time under Hangu Pass. The archers of the two countries met in the air, and some arrowheads collided by coincidence, and bursts of jingling sounds came.

More of them are missing each other and shooting into the camps of both sides.

At the end of Hangu Pass, Qin army archers took advantage of the advantage of the advantage of the territory and hid behind the battlements of the city wall when the Zhao army's arrow rain came. Some of the slow reactions were injured by the bows and arrows.

In an instant, a large area of ​​casualties appeared on the front of Hangu Pass.

"Free scattering!" The Qin Army Captain in charge of the archer shouted.

The Qin archers who originally maintained a three-level shooting formation were immediately mixed. Free scattering was the most test of the archer's reaction and skills. Some experienced archers would not silly bending their bows, but instead looked at all directions and listened to the arrows shot from the opposite side at all times, and always paid attention to the bows and arrows shot from the opposite side, and shot the enemy troops on the opposite side with a target.

The moment the archers on both sides began to fight, Bai Ba ordered the troops on both sides to attack the city quickly and launched the first attack on the city defense of Hangu Pass.

The two wings of the Zhao army were like two long human dragons, rushing towards Hangu Pass, which was located on the earth and guarding the east gate of Xianyang.

Smoke and dust are everywhere, and the horns are connected to the sky.

As the two wings approached, Zhang Han showed a cruel sneer on his lips, making his numb face even more ferocious.

"Send the order, prepare for blind shots."

With his order, countless troops of Daqin's feet suddenly appeared from the inside of the city wall of Hangu Pass.

These archers with feet were all under Hangu Pass. They were almost unable to be affected by the fierce battles of archers on the top of the city. They lined up solemnly. There was a commander in charge in front of each square formation.

On the top of the city wall, a figure held two dragon flags in his hand, waving regularly.

Every time they waved, these archers with feet were adjusted under the command of the leader's captain, and taught the direction of the arch and arc of the crossbow arrows.

When the two long dragons of Zhao's siege were almost close to Hangu Pass, the Qin army's feet shot a crossbow arrow for the first time.

These crossbow arrows tilted quite a bit, drew a huge parabolic arc in the sky, and whistled from the city toward the outside of the city.

The two-wing army of the Zhao army had just arrived at the city of Hangu Pass, and what we greeted was the crossbow arrows falling from the sky.

These crossbow arrows fell down like rain.

The Zhao army was caught off guard and was shot countless by crossbow arrows. Because it fell from the sky and had a great inertia, some people were actually shot from their heads and shot directly to the ground by crossbow arrows.

Blood flowers fell directly to the ground. Each blood flowers represented the end of a living life.

War is so cruel. Ordinary soldiers are like ants, like dust in this meat grinder of war.

Seeing that the Zhao army fell like cutting wheat, Bai Ba's expression remained unchanged and waved his hand again. Another army horse rushed out on both wings. They roared, waved their shields and weapons, and rushed towards Hangu Pass.

"Today, Hangu Pass will inevitably be conquered." Bai Ba snorted coldly. His long snake formation had approached Hangu Pass, which was comparable to the Qin army's archers.

"Go up again." With Bai Ba's order, there was another combination of bow and arrow rattan players behind him rushing forward.

The city wall of Hangu Pass is only that wide, and no matter how many archers the Qin army had, it was impossible for them to stand on the city wall and shoot arrows. The open space in front of Hangu Pass was vast. As long as the Zhao army stabilized its position, it could send more archers on a large scale.

As one goes up and down, the Qin army's archers will eventually be suppressed. The final result is that the Zhao army will climb the Hangu Pass Tower and start a close-knit fight.

The battle between the two sides lasted for two hours.

The Zhao army's bow and arrow positions gradually stabilized, and the soldiers who rushed to the gate of Hangu Pass on both sides also rushed to the city of Hangu Pass after paying a huge price.

The rusher finally raised and aimed at the huge city gate of Hangu Pass.

On the side of the rushing car, archers and rattan players were responsible for covering the soldiers who were operating the rushing car and hitting the Hangu Pass gate.

Just as they were setting up the rushing car, heavy soldiers of the Qin Dynasty appeared above Hangu Pass.

The soldiers were protected by heavy armor. There were no swords or hard bows in their hands. Each of them carried a can of tincture oil, and the fire-induced object was equipped on their waists, and torches were lit on the city tower.

These tincture oils are specially designed for truck hoisting.

What wooden rushing cars are most afraid of is tincture oil, which will lose its effectiveness once it is ignited.

"Shoot those heavy armored Qin soldiers." The Captain Zhao Jun, who was in charge of rushing the car, immediately shouted.

The archer of Zhao, who was following the rushing car, immediately shot upwards towards the city, and sharp arrows roared towards the city.

But these bows and arrows were just sparks colliding on the heavy armored soldiers of the Qin army.

The soldiers still held the jar and threw them down.

A jar of tincture oil fell on Zhao Jun's rushing car, and a torch fell along with the tincture oil.

With a "pan" sound, a fire ignited on the rushing car.

Many Zhao soldiers who were sputtered by tinder oil also burned all over and let out heart-to-heart screams.

The Zhao army's siege barely reached the city, but the rushing car was burned and a large area of ​​corpses were thrown away, but they failed miserably.

However, Zhao Jun was not discouraged, and another rushing car made a creaking sound, which was slowly pushed over.

The heavily armored soldiers of the Qin army raised the tinder tank again and were ready to smash it into the rushing car.
