Chapter 419 Heavy Armor
Clear river.
Along the river, the Qin army gathered supplies and rebuilt the camp on the ruins of the Han army's camp.
A tall tower was erected at the entrance of the camp, and black flags were planted around the camp. A car came from the mountain road and stocked up the supplies in the camp.
"General, Supervisor, our vanguard has cleared the road and set up camp under Huayang City."
"knew."
Yang Duanhe waved his hand, and the scout retreated. He turned to look at Zhao Shuang, with some confusion in his words.
"Your Majesty, although we are marching quickly, Huayang is a fortified city. Without siege equipment, I am afraid it will be difficult to capture it."
“Create momentum first, then talk about other things.”
Zhao Shuang didn't care.
Lord Changping instigated this war to attack Korea. Internally, it could drive a wedge between the foreigners represented by Han Fei and the aristocratic families; externally, it could allow Han Yu to gather military power and prepare himself for the throne of the King of Han. Pave the way.
By the way, Lu Buwei, the former prime minister of the Qin Dynasty who is now in Henan, can be put on pins and needles to prepare for the complete eradication of his power in the future.
Therefore, from the beginning, the Qin Dynasty's strategic positioning for the attack on South Korea was not clear. It only said that it would punish South Korea to fear the princes.
It's just that the specific operations have no actual goals at all. From the beginning, Lord Changping did not expect these tens of thousands of heavy armors to achieve any military exploits. Even if it fails without success, it will serve his purpose.
Huayang is a city built on the high mountains in the west of Xinzheng. It is a strategic location and a fortress to defend Xinzheng.
In a siege war, it is difficult to succeed without sufficient siege equipment. The most important person who provided the Qin army with siege equipment was the public losers. It's just that the public loser's relationship with Hanyang Jun is not a good one, or even very bad to some extent.
This attack on South Korea was very hasty. They had enough reasons to shirk the situation and did not prepare enough siege equipment.
As soon as Zhao Shuang finished speaking, the land on the river bank was shaking. Yang Duanhe took a look, and the calm water surface beside him was trembling.
In the distant mountains and forests, smoke and dust billow. A huge black shadow fell from the cliff on the mountainside and landed on the ground. Its originally round body spread out its limbs and transformed into a giant beast, lying on the ground.
The soldiers of the Qin Army immediately surrounded him, and saw a man emerging from the machine beast, waving his hand in this direction.
"Your Majesty, it's me!"
"Let him come here!"
Gongshuxiu came over with a smile and said as if he was taking credit.
"Your Majesty, this is my newly developed mechanism beast - Chuanshan No. 1."
Yang Duanhe was on the side and had heard about this Gongshu Xiu. This genius, who was born in Gongshu family, joined the Mo family for some reason, which made Gongshu family very angry, and the Mo family didn't seem to welcome him very much.
However, Gong Shuxiu didn't care about the attitudes of both sides and served under the commander-in-chief of the Mohist family. The Mohist general has three large strongholds under his command, and Gong Shuxiu is in charge of the agency nest in Sanchuan.
Zhao Shuang took a look at it from a distance. This machine beast looked very arrogant on the outside, but what was its strength...
"What's the difference between this and the Potu Saburo that Gongshuqiu is developing?"
"looks good!"
Not surprisingly, Gong Shuxiu gave such an answer.
"I combined the mechanism skills of the Mohists and the public losers to make the Chuanshan No. 1 more exquisite and beautiful, and more powerful. This time, there are not only three Chuanshan No. 1s, but also twenty special catapults, which can definitely Give me a helping hand."
Zhao Shuang looked at Yang Duanhe.
"This time, General Lao came to Huayang City in person."
"We will definitely live up to our mission."
The General's Mansion.
The mansion that used to be bustling with activity now looks extremely bleak. When Ji Yihu died, all the troops were destroyed, and Ji Wuye's biggest bargaining chip was gone. In addition, all the Bainiao members sent were lost in Qinghe River, and Ji Wuye's power was greatly damaged.
What's more, although the King of Han has not investigated the crime of defeating the army for the time being, who knows that Ji Wuye has lost the trust of the King of Han.
Nowadays, even the Emerald Tiger no longer comes to visit.
Ji Wuye was lying on the bed, his face pale.
Green Eyebrow half-knelt in front of the bed, his face lowered.
"What did Han Yu say?"
"I went to the Fourth Young Master's Mansion, but was turned away."
Ji Wuye's weak voice was still filled with anger.
"I'm not done yet! How much better is he?"
Ji Wuye knew the inside story very well. Han Yu stood with the Chu people from the beginning, hoping that they could help. And behind Chu people, there is the shadow of Lord Changping.
At this time, Zhao Shuang's army was at its peak. Once he really defeated Huayang City, what would happen to King Han?
Han Yu is afraid that he will completely lose power!
Green Eyebrow lowered his head and said nothing, but saw Ji Wuye looking over with a pair of tiger-like eyes.
"Where's Bai Yifei? What's going on?"
Green Eyebrow lowered his head and said nothing, seeming a little embarrassed. Just when Ji Wuye was about to have an attack, a soft voice came from his ears.
"General, why do you do this?"
The cold air invaded the room, and as Bai Yifei approached, Ji Wuye couldn't help but cough a few times.
"Master Hou, is he still interested in coming to see me?"
Ji Wuye's eyes were wary. But Bai Yifei waved his hand and Green Eyebrow retreated outside the house.
Seeing this, Ji Wuye already understood that everything in the general's mansion was now beyond his control.
"When did you bribe the green eyebrow?"
Bai Yifei looked down at Ji Wuye with a hint of teasing.
"The big tree like General is about to fall, and they and others have to find a way out."
Ji Wuye became even more angry when he heard this, and his eyes were about to pop out.
"Zhao Shuang's troops are approaching the city. How can you be fine?"
"With tens of thousands of heavy armor, we couldn't capture Handan City last year, and we can't capture Xinzheng City today. What's more, Zhao Shuang has no intention of destroying Han at this time."
Bai Yifei looked at Ji Wuye with a cold face and stretched out his hands. The cold air condensed, and the ice edges were like vines, wrapping around Ji Wuye on the bed, making him feel as cold as death.
The ice edge is like a thorn, like a sharp sword, hanging on the couch. With just a thought from Bai Yifei, it will fall down and take the life of the general.
"you you……"
Ji Wuye struggled and looked at Bai Yifei, but his weak body could not move.
"I told you a long time ago not to hang out with Han Yu. Otherwise, we wouldn't be where we are today."
Bai Yifei's eyes flashed with murderous intent, but he suddenly felt a sense of hostility.
A sharp arrow suddenly arrived, piercing the sky, shattering the ice edge hanging on the bed, and nailed it to the wooden board next to the bed.
Soldiers gathered around, Han Yu came from outside and looked at Bai Yifei.
"Is the Marquis also coming to visit the General?"
The icy edges like vines disappeared, and the restless Ji Wuye struggled on the bed, breathing heavily, looking extremely embarrassed.
Bai Yifei looked at Han Yu with cold eyes.
"Fourth Young Master arrived just in time!"
On the side, Han Qiancheng was holding a bow and arrow, guarding him. The two sides were at war with each other, but they never broke out.
