Chapter 1903: The Meat Grinder in Yanjing Offensive and Defensive Battle (14)
With Xue Kui and Xue Jiao protection, the Qin soldiers could not get close to Liu Che at all, but Liu Che took the initiative to escape from the protection of the two and waved his sword to slash at the Qin soldiers with a ferocious face.
[Dingdong, Liu Che''s skill "Sword General" is activated, and his force is +2.
Liu Che: Commander 81 (+1), force 81 (+6), intelligence 97 (+2), politics 102 (+1), charm 103 (+3). Equipment: Eight-costume Sword
Currently, Liu Che''s military force has risen to 83. 】
Among Liu Che''s five-dimensional attributes, except for the commander and low force, the other three items can be regarded as gorgeous, with a terrifying 102 politics, and their charm is only 3 points lower than Qin Hao. Looking at the entire history, the Emperor is definitely one of the best.
With the blessing of the "Sword General", Liu Che''s sword appeared like a dragon, and he slashed at a Qin army Sima with one sword, but was blocked by the Qin army Sima''s horizontal sword. He cut several swords and only left a few rolls on the horizontal sword.
Liu Che looked shocked when he saw this and said to himself: The Qin army''s weapons are indeed powerful, and they can actually block the sharpness of his eight-court sword.
brush…
Liu Che held the sword in both hands and slashed with all his strength. He finally cut off the horizontal sword, and then killed the Qin army Sima with one sword, but was then besieged by three Qin soldiers.
Facing Liu Che, who was three Qin soldiers, swung his sword to block the two swords, turned around and cut off the arm of a Qin soldier, but the Qin soldier with broken arms still roared at him.
Such a brave performance shocked Liu Che. After all, this is just the most ordinary soldier among the Qin army. If all the Qin army were like this, how could Yanjing City be defended?
After killing three Qin troops again, Liu Che was already very tired and began to breathe violently. Seeing this, Xue Kui and Xue Jiao hurriedly guarded him to prevent the fish that escaped the net from threatening the emperor.
When the Han army guards saw that His Majesty had participated in the war in person and were so brave, they slaughtered four Qin soldiers with their own hands, the morale of the city tower guards suddenly surged.
Even the emperor is not afraid of death. What''s the pity for their lives, these lower-class soldiers?
"Fight with the Qin army raised by the bitch."
"At worst, I''ll die. I''ll be a hero after eighteen years."
The Han army, which was originally depressed, had a sharp increase in morale due to Liu Che''s arrival, and they all launched a counterattack against the Qin soldiers on the city tower without fear of death.
In addition to inspiring the morale of the Han army, Liu Che''s participation in the war played a greater role.
Liu Che''s Three Thousand Court Guards are the most elite counterattack in the Northern Han Dynasty and are currently the most powerful civil war in Yanjing City. Their joining directly reversed the disadvantages of the defenders.
Soon, under the joint force of the defenders and reinforcements, even though the Qin soldiers continued to climb up, the number of Qin troops on the city tower became smaller and smaller, until there was no one left in the end.
Seeing that the situation was reversed, Su Dingfang was extremely unwilling to do anything, but he was not allowed to do anything. Seeing that it was getting late, he only ordered the withdrawal of troops first and then the siege was carried out after repair.
Although the Han army defended the Yanjing City, Liu Che was not very happy.
In this battle alone, his three thousand guards suffered 700 casualties. After all the last elite troops were exhausted, how should they resist Su Dingfang''s fierce attack?
Su Dingfang’s manifesto said nothing wrong. He dragged the people of the whole city into the water for his own selfishness. Is this really right? Liu Che thought to himself.
Like Liu Che, Xue Gang, as the head coach, also did not have much joy.
The Qin army was very prepared. Even if Xue Gang was guarded by Yanjing, the proportion of casualties of the Han army was still twice that of the Qin army.
The casualties of the defending city are twice as high as those of the siege city? People who don’t understand this will definitely think that Xue Gang is incompetent, but the facts are exactly the opposite.
Among the 100,000 defenders in Yanjing City, only 30,000 are regular troops, 10,000 are reorganized soldiers of aristocratic families, and the other 60,000 are temporary recruits. It is not an exaggeration to say that such an army is a mob. If such a hundred thousand miscellaneous army goes out of the city to fight, the Qin army only needs to dispatch 20,000 troops to defeat them head-on.
Xue Gang commanded 100,000 miscellaneous troops to defend the city, but blocked the attack of the 70,000 regular Qin army. What''s more, at the expense of 40,000 miscellaneous troops, offsetting the 20,000 elite Qin army. Although it relied on the convenience of defending the city, this was an amazing record in itself.
Xue Gang did not let Liu Che down and really defended Yanjing City, but he knew that the real test had just arrived.
After ten consecutive days of fierce attacks by the Qin army, the Han army damaged a large number of defending equipment. Now, even if they use parts to make up, they can''t get a replenishable catapult cart.
The turtle oil has also been exhausted, more than half of the bed crossbows were damaged, and only two hundred catapults were left. What’s more serious is that there are no strong men in the city to replenish them.
Nowadays, there are only some old and weak in Yanjing City. Although they are also involved in defending the city, the two old and weak cannot withstand one of them.
The defense of Yanjing City is far inferior to that of before, but the attack power of the Qin army has not been reduced much.
The Han army''s defense equipment has not been replenished, but the Qin army''s siege equipment can be replenished as much as it loses, and has remained at its peak.
Xue Gang thought that after losing 20,000 troops, the Qin army''s offensive would definitely be reduced, but today''s offensive made him feel cold. The Qin army''s offensive was indeed a little weak, but the amplitude was not large, and he still had a high morale.
If this situation continues, if Xue Gang wants to continue to defend Yanjing City, he must spend more lives. In the end, Yanjing will probably turn into a dead city.
As soon as he thought of this, Xue Gang''s face suddenly became ugly. He subconsciously wanted Liu Che to look at it, but found that Liu Che''s face was also not very good.
"Forget it, I just need to obey Your Majesty''s orders, and I don''t care about my business for anything else." Xue Gang said in his heart.
On the other hand, after Su Dingfang withdrew his troops and returned to the camp, he immediately summoned all the generals to prepare for the next day''s siege, but was opposed by some of his generals and schoolmen.
Seeing this, Xue Rengui also advised: "Supervisor Su, our army lost 20,000 athletes in just ten days, and the soldiers were already extremely tired.
As far as the future is concerned, we should postpone the offensive and repair it for a while before continuing to attack the city. ”
In just ten days, the Qin army lost 20,000 people, and two-seventh of the casualties were killed or killed.
Although nearly half of the injured soldiers can return to the battlefield after treatment, there are still 10,000 people who died directly and were disabled. This casualties are still a huge number.
If there were two-seventh of the casualties in other troops, they would have been defeated directly, but the Qin army was different.
The rigorous promotion system, the perfect pension system, etc., allow the Qin army to be defeated even if more than half of the casualties are injured and still maintain high combat power.
In the eyes of Qin soldiers, the enemy in front of them is not a human being, but a success of merits in the book. It is precisely because of this that the Qin army can win every battle.
But even if the Qin army is as strong as the Qin army, it will inevitably have an impact on morale.
Nowadays, war-weariness has also appeared within the Qin army. Although the sound is not loud, it is enough to make the senior generals sound the alarm bell.
Today''s guarantee is that it rains every day, and it''s going down, and the marquis on Liuxiang''s side will have a flood.
