The army of Zhao State was approaching the city, and Han Tong, the general of Qi State, couldn't help but sigh, but seeing that the momentum of the Zhao army was amazing, the spears were lined up, the armor was bright, and the advance and retreat between each other were orderly.

"I'm afraid it's hard to hold on for a long time!"

The main general Han Tong couldn't help but sigh and said, there are many factors involved in determining the outcome of a war, of course, one of the most important is the strength, the strength of the battle in history to defeat the strong with the weak must be a minority, and the face is mostly a tyrannical division, now it is different, the Zhao country is united, the difference in the strength of the two sides is huge, once the offensive is launched, it will inevitably hit like a storm, how to resist with only five thousand troops in hand.

"Big brother, don't be afraid, the brothers work together to break the gold, the third brother wants to see what way that arrogant Zhao Kuo can attack." After the man finished speaking, he shook the long sword in his hand, and in the face of the army under the city, his eyes showed disdain, and the person who spoke, Han Song, the third son of the Han family, died in the army, and only the two brothers Han Tong and Han Song were left, and the love between the brothers who experienced the pain of leaving was deeper.

"Third brother, do you remember what the second brother said before he died?"

Han Song was stunned when he heard this, and he didn't know why the eldest brother would mention this matter, "Remember, the second brother said!" Han Song paused for a moment, and there was no one else around him, and then said: "It's not worth it to say that you are working hard for King Qi, but you have no regrets about dying." ”

Han Tong nodded, "Yes, your second brother died on the battlefield in the end, only because he had sex with a woman in the camp, and was finally grabbed by someone to erase all his exploits, and even bear infamy, although this kind of thing violates the military order, try to ask who has not done it, just because the king listened to slander and caused thousands of soldiers to be cold!" ”

Han Song said: "If the eldest brother doesn't want to suffer this bird's anger, he simply takes his brothers to pull the mountain alone, and he wants to be happy as the king." ”

Han Tong smiled indifferently, "The ancestor of the Han family will never be a treacherous person, and the second child has done this." ”

Knock knock, the drums below the pass burst, the conversation between the two brothers also stopped, looking down through the cover of the pass, only to see the Zhao army below the large array of the army quickly left and right, a war horse flashed in the middle, immediately a person wearing armor and carrying a long sword, thirty years old and full of heroic spirit.

Han Song pointed with his hand, "Big brother, it's this person, Zhao Kuo." ”

"It's him!"

Han Tong only heard Zhao Kuo's name and never saw it in person, and he couldn't help but admire when he saw it, compared to enjoying the wine all day long, Zhao Kuo didn't know how many times better, and people showed a domineering spirit on the horse.

Zhao Kuo stepped forward immediately, the position of the front army was also exquisite, and the closest to the pass could also avoid the threat of the bow and crossbow above the pass, Zhao Kuo did not stop at all, one person and one horse came to the front, Han Song saw it in his eyes, "Big brother, why not take the opportunity to kill it, so that the Zhao army will retreat, and you and my brother will also make great contributions." ”

Han Tong waved his hand, "Zhao Kuo came alone to see his sincerity, take a look!" ”

Zhao Kuo said in a loud voice: "Can the people in the city listen to Zhao Kuo's words." ”

"Big brother, don't fall for him, Zhao Kuo is the best at buying people's hearts." Han Song hurriedly reminded him, he was captured that day, he thought he would die, and he didn't want to let his people go just by saying generous words, the more Han Song thought about it after he went back, the more wrong it became, the battle between the two armies was either you die or I died, what kind of trick did Zhao Kuo play, when he heard Zhao Kuo's shouting below, it was immediately clear that this was to buy people's hearts, and the eldest brother was the most affectionate, and it was inevitable that he would be persuaded by Zhao Kuo to immediately remind.

Han Tong waved his hand, his body moved forward, Zhao Kuo looked up, and saw that his appearance was seven points similar to the person he captured last night, but the temperament revealed between his eyebrows was completely different, and that kind of calmness must have been formed after countless trainings, and he was not a hairy boy at all.

"Han Tong, the guard general of the gate, why do you need to say more about the battle between the two armies!"

Zhao Kuo said with a smile: "General Han, the king of Qi has no way, Qian Feng framed Zhongliang regardless of the life and death of the people, the difficulty of the country of Qi today is not because of Zhao but Qi, if the general is really a reasonable person, he should open the city gate to avoid a war." ”

Han Tong laughed, "Even if it is true that the king said, Han Tong also wants to fight, for not the king of the Tao in the eyes of others, let alone the person who sells for glory, all of them are bloody in their hearts, Zhao people have it, and Qi people also have it." ”

"War, war, war!"

The soldiers above the pass waved their spears, and Zhao Kuo nodded again and again, "In this case, there is only one way to compete!" ”

"Why bother talking so much, come if you want to come." Han Song couldn't listen to it for a long time, and the humiliation of being captured was so eager to split Zhao Kuo in half with a sword, and snatched the bow and crossbow from the soldiers.

"Third brother, don't mess around."

Han Song was angry, he had already ignored the rules, the two countries were at war without slashing, and now that Zhao Kuo came to the bottom of the pass alone, how could he take advantage of the danger of others, Han Tong tried to stop it, Han Song's fingers loosened and the arrow was shot, and he didn't want to take a step slower.

A cold arrow shot directly at Zhao Kuo above the pass, Zhao Kuo's long sword was drawn, and a cold light arrow fell to the ground, this attack was ineffective at all, and the persuasion was useless so he had to turn the horse's head and return to the camp.

Mu Chen saw it clearly, and scolded at the pass with his throat pulled, "Shameless guy, the king of my family thinks that you are a man and let you live a dog, I don't want to know how to repay you, dare to hurt people with secret arrows, boy, let me catch you and twist your head directly." ”

"Third brother, King Zhao's move is also for you and me to think about my brother, how can I treat the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain!"

Han Song bowed his head and was silent, he was not afraid of heaven and earth, but he was in awe of his eldest brother, and what he did was just a momentary breath, since he wanted to fight, why should he have so many rules.

The drums sounded, Zhao Kuo returned to the Chinese army's big formation, waved the flag in his hand, and the siege camp in front of him rushed up quickly.

A team of Zhao soldiers rushed up with wooden ladders, which were mixed with the siege elite, mixed in the middle to avoid the Qi army's arrows approaching quickly, a burst of arrows shot down from above, the siege camp blocked with spears in their hands, wearing thick armor arrows to cause very limited damage, someone was injured and fell to the ground, a team of men and horses quickly rushed out of the camp to carry the wounded to the side for treatment, Zhao Kuo's carefully built medical troops also came in handy, a battle down because of the wounded soldiers died even in direct battle The number of soldiers killed,

The wooden ladder frame was no more than an inch away from the pass, and the flying tiger claws were also punched, grabbing the gap in the stone and pulling it with his hand, and the whole person quickly climbed up against the stone wall.

"Smash!"

Han Tong responded calmly, he had heard that the Zhao army was brave in battle, and now he saw it in person was also amazing, approaching the pass Zhao soldiers rushed up one by one, the speed was even more amazing, the siege wooden ladder was also improved, the upper end of the wooden ladder has a sharp hook, and the other side of the hook has a sharp blade, which can maximize the hook into the gap in the stone, and can also block the soldiers above from grabbing the wooden ladder with both hands.

The siege troops have undergone special training, and they have run up the wooden ladder quickly with both hands, but they are close to the pass in an instant, the soldiers defending the city bend down and lift the boulder and smash it hard, the elite of the siege Zhao army has gone through several drills, seeing that the boulder smashed down quickly, only two hands were left to grab the ladder crossbar, the stone smashed on the wooden ladder and bounced to the side, the wooden ladder was full of siege Zhao soldiers, even if the dexterity was inevitably affected, the boulder fell, and from time to time someone was hit by the boulder.

"General, the opponent's armor is too thick, and the bow and crossbow are of limited use!"

Han Tong's brows were tightly locked, the bow and crossbow were a sharp weapon to defend the city, and the lethality was amazing, the elite in charge of the siege of the city in the army of Zhao Guo was wearing thick armor, almost all of them were covered by thick armor except for their eyes, and the stone hit the top of the head and the whole person fell downward, and the distance of dozens of zhang was at most seriously injured and did not lose his life.

"Spear!"

Han Tong roared angrily, seeing that the Zhao army's offensive was getting closer and closer, in the face of thick armor bows and crossbows, boulders and boulders had limited play left and right, only relying on spears, hundreds of spears stabbed down together, and the Zhao army approached above and responded with spears in their hands, spears collided with each other from time to time, and people fell from above, and the cost of attacking the city was bound to be several times higher than usual

The spears on the city were upward, and only by virtue of the terrain could the power of the spear array be exerted, and the elite infantry who were attached to the stone wall took the opportunity to jump up one after another, exerting force with their arms, and jumping quickly with their legs kicking on the wooden ladder.

"Hey!"

The soldiers in the city were taken aback, and saw that it was Zhao Bing who rushed out quickly, and the elite attack power of the infantry was amazing, but the number was too small, and after killing a few people, they were all killed by the defenders.

"Does anyone see how the Zhao army attacked?"

Zhao Jun's sudden appearance caught people off guard, Han Tong shouted angrily and came to the pass to look down, Zhao Jun went up the wooden ladder, there was still some distance from the pass, how did those people who had just attacked the city wall do it.

"Big brother, let me lead the cavalry to fight and kill him." Han Song shouted on the side.

"No, you can't hold on, and those who dare to disobey the order will be beheaded!"

As soon as the drum changed, the Zhao State offensive started again, this time it was different, the infantry moved forward, the bow and crossbow behind them also followed up quickly, the elite of the thousand god crossbow battalion occupied a favorable position, and the use of the bow and crossbow mainly took two postures, one was kneeling and shooting, the left leg knelt on the ground, the left hand held the crossbow and the right hand controlled the direction and the timing of the launch, and the other was to stand and shoot, the body leaned back slightly, the bow and crossbow were on the shoulder, and the kneeling shot was more stable.

"Shield!"

A burst of spears stabbed out, and the Zhao Jun bow and crossbow battalion below quickly sent out, Han Tong saw a roar in his eyes, and the soldiers holding shields in the rear quickly rushed up, and hundreds of square shields instantly rose above the pass, and all the space was almost occupied by shields, even so, there were still people who were shot by arrows.

There were screams, this is war, in exchange for death for the so-called victory, the Zhao army siege camp took the opportunity to launch, and climbed up with hands and feet.

"The Zhao army is coming up quickly."

A soldier shouted by pulling his neck, and the spear formation in the rear rushed out again, rushing through the gap in the shield array, facing the almost frantic attack of the Zhao army, and the defenders in the city were not chaotic at all.

The sound of drums, the wind, the shouts, the crisp sound of spears hitting armor mingled, torches lit one after another, and black arrows and crossbows shot straight into the city.

Han Tong was protected by his own soldiers and commanded the soldiers to change formations, as long as Zhao Jun launched the bow and crossbow shield array and quickly stepped forward, he was responsible for killing the spear formation, and retreated and was ready to fight at any time.

"Retreat!"

Zhao Kuo gave an order, and the drum beat changed, and the soldiers above quickly retreated downward, and there was a burst of cheers from the pass, "Be careful!" ”

The soldiers are not tired of deceit, the bow and crossbow camp took the opportunity to launch two rapid fires in a row, and the crossbow exerted its power, which Han Tong was also negligent, according to common sense, there must be an interval after a bow and crossbow shot, this interval is enough to change the formation, a burst of arrows and crossbows fell, the shield retreated, and the spear camp moved forward, seeing Zhao Jun retreating, he let out a burst of cheers, his fingers were pulled, and the arrows and crossbows in the sky came with the sound.

The arrows fell, and there were many dead and wounded above the pass, and the armor worn by the soldiers of the Qi State was a little rudimentary in comparison, and they could not stop the strong crossbow at all.

"Shield array."

The shield-wielding soldiers quickly met up, and the shield formation was formed again above the pass, the drums sounded, and the crossbow camp also retreated.
