He quickly walked up to the city wall and saw dozens of catapults in the Han army formation.
Besides, the army is lined up,
Clearly, they were ready to attack at any time.
At the forefront of the Han army, a youth was riding a horse. Who else could it be but Qin Mu? The latter stared at the Xianbei King and the Xianbei generals on the city wall and sneered,
"How is it? I wonder if everyone is satisfied with my gift? I originally thought that after wiping out the Wuhuan, you would be able to reflect on your actions, but I didn't expect you to still be so rampant and dare to provoke the might of my Han family. You deserve to die.”
As soon as he said this,
Everyone subconsciously looked at the Xianbei King.
After all,
They were all quite clear about the meaning behind Qin Mu's words. At the same time, there was still some resentment in their eyes. If their king hadn't taken the initiative to provoke them, they probably wouldn't have to suffer today's calamity, right?
At this moment, the high priest said,"
"Cough, cough, don't listen to the Han generals. Since they've conquered the Wuhuan Tribe, they'll march towards us sooner or later. The king's actions are just an excuse for them.”
Hearing this, everyone's expressions turned ugly.
How could they not know?
This should be an excuse for the Han army, but if it wasn't for the Xianbei King taking the initiative, there would be no reason to send troops. However, he only dared to hide this sentence in his heart and did not dare to say it out loud. In this foreign tribe, the price of provoking the royal power was quite high.
Moreover, things had already come to this.
So what if he didn't want to fight? It was impossible for the hundreds of thousands of Han soldiers to retreat, so this battle was inevitable.
……
At the same time,
Below the city, Qin Mu raised the Nine Luminaries Sun-Breaking Spear in his hand and said loudly,""Everyone, listen up. The city will be broken today.”
He had said those words just now to mess up the morale of the Xianbei army.
Of course,
It didn't matter even if it didn't work. The catapults were already in place, and it was only a matter of time before they took down the Xianbei Capital. Thus, he gave the order.
This time, he wanted to make use of the Xianbei tribe to establish his prestige. Although the various tribes on the plains were afraid of the Wuhuan tribe, there were still people who were secretly unconvinced.
The leader was the Xianbei Race.
Therefore, in order to suppress all the races on the plains, they had to destroy the Xianbei Race with lightning speed. Only then could they completely subdue all the other races.
After all, this was still the grassland, not the Central Plains of the Great Han Dynasty. If he continued to waste his time here, then with the small number of soldiers in his hands, he would be slowly devoured by the various races on the grassland sooner or later.
Therefore, it was destined that he could not fight steadily.
He had to suppress them with blood. Only by beating these foreign races until they were afraid and didn't even dare to raise their weapons in front of the Han army would Qin Mu be able to completely suppress the entire grassland and use it as his backup base.
"As the lord commands, catapults, prepare!”
Ji Hu, who was on the left, pulled out the saber at his waist.
Following this, the soldiers in charge of the catapults quickly loaded rocks and aimed at the city. It was not just them; Great Qin's elite soldiers behind them also carried scaling ladders and prepared to charge at any moment. With this equipment, it would not be too difficult to break through the Royal City.
One had to know,
These foreign tribes weren't as skilled as the Great Han in terms of city construction, so it wasn't difficult for them to take down the city.
When all the troops were ready, the catapults began to explode with power. Huge rocks were loaded into the catapults, and they suddenly smashed into the distant city walls. Only a rumbling sound could be heard.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Bang...
The boulders from the catapults continued to fall on the walls, creating deep pits. Many Xianbei people were killed on the spot. After a few waves of attacks, the Xianbei soldiers didn't dare to stand on the walls anymore. They all retreated, not even daring to show their heads.
Seeing this, Qin Mu knew that his chance had come.
"Great Qin elites, charge!"
The flags waved, and the soldiers who were already prepared behind the army formation carried the ladder and rushed in the direction of the distant Royal City.
On the battlefield, Great Qin's elite soldiers were suppressed by the catapults as they rushed towards the city walls. They set up ladders and climbed up.
As for the Xianbei army, after they saw the ladder being set up, they were shocked.
Fear was written all over their faces. They had many years of battlefield experience, and they were quite clear that the Han army would charge up soon. When they thought of the human heads outside the city building the pagodas, they felt their scalps go numb, and they did not even dare to resist.
"What are you waiting for? Defend!"
"My sons, behind the palace is the territory of our Xianbei people. Do you want to see the Han army attack?”
"There are old people, women, cows, sheep, and children behind them. Do you want them to be slaughtered too?”
The Xianbei King said,
Hearing his words, the Xianbei soldiers could not help but muster their courage.
Indeed, this was the last hope of the Xianbei tribe. Especially when they thought of their elders, women, children, and cows, they mustered up their courage and began to fire arrows at the charging Han army.
Fortunately, there was a wall separating them, so these Xianbei people were able to raise their morale.
Otherwise, if it was a direct battle, no matter how much the Xianbei King said, these people would not dare to fight. The scene of a human head building a tower was too terrifying.
The dense rain of arrows rained down on the Han Army below.
However,
However, they were unable to stop the charge of the Han army. As one fell, the other continued to charge.
More and more people climbed up the ladder. They saw with their own eyes a Han soldier who had his neck slashed and still dragged a Xianbei soldier down with him.
This kind of reckless fighting style scared the Xianbei people.
At this moment,
They finally understood why even the number one warrior of the Xianbei tribe, Taba Xiong, had led an army of 100,000 to be wiped out.
These Han soldiers were simply too brutal. They were fearless of death and injuries. Just looking at their fearless courage was enough to make one shudder.
Under such a desperate attack,
The Xianbei people, who originally had the advantage of the city walls, had suffered even more casualties than the Han army. If this continued, it would not be long before the city walls fell.
