Chapter 400 Intense Guanzhong Frontline Battlefield
Royal City.
This is a plain surrounded by Jingshui, Luoshui and Weishui. It is not large in area, but only in a radius of hundreds of miles.
On this extremely flat land with small rivers and green grass, two armies, totaling nearly 500,000 troops are fighting fiercely.
Since there are dense forest vegetation on the edge of the plain, the number of trenchers on both sides has reached an amazing level. The huge boulders fell densely like shells in the sky. Then, after a while, they were loaded into the trenchers and returned from the air intact.
On the ground, countless Zhao soldiers held large shields and guarded each other around the sides of the rushing car, heading towards the Qin army's positions.
"Shoot, shoot, shoot!" On the Qin army's position, the commanders shouted at the top of their lungs. The soldiers raised their crossbows and longbows in their hands in rows and shot the arrows above at the enemy.
Arrows fell overwhelmed. Even though they were protected by a large shield, Zhao soldiers were still shot to the ground from time to time and died on the way to charge.
However, the Zhao army soldiers did not stop. They braved countless rain of arrows and rushed to the Qin army formation, pushed away the horses and drove away, allowing the huge chariots to slowly drive towards the Qin army's camp wall.
"Damn it, rocket, where is the rocket?" Amid the shouts of the Qin army commanders, dozens of lit rockets were fired out of the camp wall, covering the entire rushing car, and several fell on the rushing car, and finally successfully made the rushing car start to burn.
The Zhao soldiers next to the rushing car finally couldn't calm down, and shouted, waving their swords and rushed up.
But without the impact of rushing cars, the soldiers' efforts seemed somewhat futile when facing the tall walls.
A moment later, the last Zhao army soldier also fell down, and the bodies of Zhao army soldiers were everywhere under the camp wall.
The grass was trampled on by the extremely mud, the black soil, the cyan grass clippings and the red blood mixed together to form an extremely strange color.
Suddenly, another rushing car appeared and hit the wall heavily.
"Bang!" With a shock, the camp wall suddenly and violently shook like an earthquake.
The Qin army archers dozens of meters near the camp wall in this area were unable to stand steadily because of this. Many people even staggered and fell to the ground. Several unlucky people fell directly from the camp wall and were killed by Zhao soldiers outside the camp wall.
"Bang!"
"Bang! Kala!"
With the continuous impact, a gap began to appear.
Almost as soon as the gap appeared, this place became the most intense battle on the entire battlefield.
Dozens of Zhao soldiers who were already following the rushing car began to charge as soon as the gap appeared, and broke into the Qin army camp from this gap.
Many Qin soldiers jumped off the camp wall and rushed towards the gap, trying to block the gap.
An extremely bloody and fierce battle began.
These Zhao soldiers are obviously elite, and their personal force and tacit understanding of cooperation are far better than those of the Qin opponents in front of them.
After a fierce sword and sword shadow, the Qin army, which originally had a larger number, was killed and retreated step by step, and the defense line at the entire gap began to shaking.
At this moment, a loud shout like thunder vibrated in the air.
"Sima Jin is here, don't be crazy!"
Sima Jin crashed into the battle group like a tiger going down the mountain. The long sword in his hand was like a spiritual snake. One sword was a bunch of blood, and one move was a life.
After Sima Jin, thirty Qin Ruishi arrived one after another and joined the battle group.
The intensity of the fight in this small battlefield instantly reached the highest level, and dozens of people fell down almost every moment.
Life became extremely cheap at this moment. Whether it was the soldiers of the Qin army or the warriors of the Zhao army, everyone's eyes were red. They didn't look like people with sound minds, but turned into beasts that chose people and devoured them.
After half a quarter of an hour, the battle at the camp wall finally ended.
Sima Jin knelt on one knee, with a long sword in his hand, gasping for breath.
His body was covered with blood, and he looked like a bloody man in red.
This not only contains the blood of the enemy, but also the blood of Sima Jin.
Even the scene that could be seen in sight became bloody.
A personal guard ran over and supported Sima Jin: "General, is it okay?"
Sima Jin laughed loudly, looking extremely heroic: "Of course nothing is wrong. I can't hurt me if I am a thief! By the way, why is there no Zhao thief already appear?"
"Return to the general, reinforcements have arrived and are blocking the enemy outside the wall."
Sima Jin was stunned for a moment, reached out to wipe his eyes, and tried to look out, and found that a Qin army's chariot and cavalry were rushing bravely outside the camp.
Sima Jin stood up with the help of his personal guard, then shook his hand away from his personal guard and prepared to continue moving forward. However, after only two steps, he staggered and sat on the ground again.
A severe pain came from Sima Jin's right calf. Sima Jin looked closely and found that there was a bloody wound on it at some point.
Blood flowed out of it, and the pain was so heart-wrenching.
"The general is injured! Go and call the military doctor!"
"Call the military doctor, stop me!" Sima Jin stopped the guard's actions and said, "Damn, the attack of this thief Zhao is so fierce! Hurry up, block the gap first, otherwise it will be too late in a while!"
"But general, reinforcements are still fighting outside. If they are blocked now, reinforcements will not be able to come back."
Sima Jin took a deep breath, feeling his body burning and pain, and he couldn't help but curse: "I will let you go! If you don't block the gap, not only those reinforcements who are using their lives to delay time for us, but even none of us will go back to Xianyang!"
Half a quarter of an hour later, the gap in the camp wall was finally blocked.
Half a cup of tea after the gap in the camp wall was blocked, the last Qin soldier who was still fighting among the five hundred Qin chariots and cavalrymen also fell to the ground. Hundreds of Zhao soldiers quickly stepped on his body without any recession and continued to attack the gap that had just been blocked.
"Prime General Sima Jin was seriously injured, more than half of the thirty Qin Ruishi were lost, and all five hundred chariots and cavalrymen were destroyed!"
On the high platform of the central army in the Qin army camp, the main general Wang He and the deputy general Wang Ling looked very ugly as they heard the battle report just now.
Wang Ling took a deep breath and said to Wang He: "General, the enemy's offensive is extremely fierce, and I'm afraid our army will find it difficult to support it!"
Wang He snorted coldly and said, "Don't panic. Although the Zhao people are now aggressive in offensive, they have not yet broken through our army's first line of defense!"
Wang Ling couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this. This was really nice and quite morale, but the question was where did the Qin army come from?
You should know that when the troops were sent at the beginning, Wang He made a promise with Qin Wang Ji in front of 200,000 Qin soldiers: "We will block the enemy from the royal city, so that the enemy will not cross the west bank of the Luo River with one soldier!"
But now it seems a bit difficult to achieve this goal.
Wang Yan glanced at Wang Ling, as if he noticed Wang Ling's concern. After a while, he spoke: "Send the order. If there is another line of defense in a hurry, I will directly dispatch the Ruis!"
Although Wang Yi only has a few hundred Qin Ruishi in his hands, because the front line is now very wide, and every battlefield is relatively small in size, which is just right for Qin Ruishi, a soldier like the king-type soldier who is brave and unbearable to use his personal force.
But having said that, Qin Ruishi is the ace force behind the Qin army. Now that Wang has to send all Qin Ruishi out, it is enough to prove how strong the pressure the Qin army is under.
In fact, during this war, the resoluteness and madness shown by the Zhao army led by Lian Po during the attack was completely beyond Wang Yi's expectations.
These Zhao people were completely using their lives to attack the Qin army's defense line, and there were wave after wave, one team after another, two teams died, five hundred and one thousand!
It has been more than half a month since the war started, and the Qin army suffered nearly 20,000 casualties. Judging from the estimates of Wang He and Wang Ling, the Zhao army obviously had more casualties than the Qin army, with at least more than 40,000.
This is definitely not a number that can be easily overlooked.
But the people of Zhao are still attacking, and the offensive is stronger and more crazier than before!
Wang Yan spat heavily, cursed and said, "These Zhao people already know that Handan is surrounded, so it's a waste of life!"
Yes, not only Zhao people, but now everyone in the world knows that Wei and Qi are attacking Handan on both sides.
The dog is anxious to jump over the wall, the dog is anxious to jump over the wall!
Wang Ling yelled and suddenly whispered: "General, do you have to know the military information from Shangjun?"
"Shangjun?" Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand indifferently: "It's just a little Zhao cavalry invading, what's there to worry about?"
Wang Ling said: "General, according to the spies' information, the Zhao army cavalry that invaded this time had more than 5,000 people, so it should not be underestimated."
Wang He snorted and said, "But that was already the information from five days ago. There has been no enemy information from Shangjun in the past five days. This shows that this Zhao cavalry has no intention of moving south. What are I afraid of this?"
Wang Ling looked around and found that the generals were standing far away, so he came to Wang Yu's ear and whispered: "I wonder what if this Zhao cavalry had gone east of Luoshui and gone to Xianyang?"
Wang He was shocked suddenly and couldn't help but say in a lost voice: "This is impossible!"
Wang Ling whispered: "I just thought of this matter. If we look at the distance, five days will be enough for this cavalry to pass through Longdong from Shangjun through Luoshui to enter Guanzhong!"
Wang took a deep breath, and his heart was confused for a moment.
Guanzhong is Wang's retreat, and it is the lifeblood of the Qin people. If they are copied, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Wang Ling said: "General, in my opinion, it is better to send a partial army back to the army to rescue him, so as not to be taken advantage of by the Zhao army."
