Chapter 328 Brutal War
At the moment of the collision, Jiang Qin's face turned red, his throat surged, and a mouthful of blood rose from inside. However, Jiang Qin, who was very strong, looked fierce, and he swallowed the blood back.
After that, he kept stepping back to relieve the force until his body was stable.
At this time, Jiang Qin was slightly startled, and then he smiled bitterly, with helplessness on his face, and a flash of unwillingness in his eyes. He lost!
As soon as they came into contact, they all realized that Jiang Qin was completely defeated!
The gap between the epic historical generals and the legendary historical generals after bursting out all their strength is huge!
"Gong Yi, you lost. For the lives of your comrades, you surrender! You have fulfilled your duties and there is no need to hold on. Otherwise, these hundreds of thousands of soldiers may be completely buried here!"
After waiting for Jiang Qin to stabilize, Yu Jin did not take advantage of the situation and took advantage of the situation. He just stood quietly and stimulated Jiang Qin with words.
The general situation is gone, and the defeat is obvious! He lost today.
Hearing Yu Jin's words, Jiang Qin's expression changed constantly. At this time, he hesitated!
He was not an indecisive person, but facing such a major decision, he hesitated in his heart.
Although his side was in a losing situation, it was not completely defeated. If he fought hard, there was still hope of victory.
However, the price to be paid, as Yu Jin said, might be hundreds of thousands of soldiers buried here.
There is another advantage. If you persist, you can also contain Zhou Tai and prevent them from attacking Zhou Tai together with Sun Jian.
The lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and the safety of his eldest brother are all things that Jiang Qin has to consider.
As for the so-called Yuyao City, Nanzhao Kingdom and other issues, they were all thrown into the Endless Sea by Jiang Qin!
Seeing Jiang Qin's hesitation, Yu Jin couldn't help but smile, and said with a smile: "Gong Yi, what you hope and worry about is nothing more than your elder brother!"
"Youping and I have a deep friendship. Although we are now different masters, I still value our friendship. Under the current situation, Yuyao City will definitely fall."
"Sun Jian's troops may also come out in full force to attack the city. To tell you the truth, Sun Jian, based on the current situation, can break through the northern wall of Yuyao City if he is willing to pay a certain price."
"At that time, Sun Jian, known as the fierce tiger of Jiangdong, and his fierce generals will attack brazenly, and Youping's safety will be in danger!" Yu Jin kept persuading.
"To be honest, Yun Qi's rebellion this time was based on filial piety. Your current lord actually sent people to plunder Yun Qi's hometown village in private, and even brutally slaughtered the village for treasures. Such behavior caused Yun Qi to rebel!"
"Yun Qi's contribution is definitely higher than yours, but he has to endure such treatment. Is Xu Zhao still a wise lord?"
"A good minister chooses his master to serve, and a good bird chooses a tree to live in. Gong Yi will make a decision quickly!"
Yu Jin's constant persuasion from loyalty, righteousness, and affection influenced Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin believed that Yu Jin's words could not be false, because Yu Jin had the strength to kill him directly, but he still tried hard to persuade him, presumably out of affection.
When Yu Jin talked about Yun Qi's rebellion, Jiang Qin's face showed hatred, but after talking about the reason, a touch of sadness and sympathy flashed in his eyes.
The sad thing is that the comrades who fought bloody battles on the front line, the brothers worked for Xu Zhao day and night, but in the end they were still buried in Xu Zhao's hands, how sad!
Sympathy, everyone! Because no one is wrong, it's only fate that is wrong!
At this time, Jiang Qin's heart began to slowly let go, and the big knife in his hand slowly fell. He decided to give up resistance!
After that, Jiang Qin shouted: "Everyone stop!"
The guards who had been in the upper hand before stopped immediately after Jiang Qin's shout, and Yu Jin also shouted to the elite to stop.
In an instant, the situation on the city wall took a sharp turn.
Jiang Qin began to command the flag bearers in the high pavilion, raised several white flags, and surrendered!
After raising the white flag, the drummers in the high pavilion also signaled and beat the rather tragic surrender drums. These drums slowly spread and resounded throughout the entire southern city wall!
After seeing Jiang Qin surrender cleanly, Yu Jin finally smiled and relaxed. Gently wipe the blood on the armor and face...
The sound of the surrender drum echoed in the air. Lin Mu and Yun Qi heard it. The soldiers slowly stopped and stopped charging.
Some pale soldiers dropped their weapons on the ground and raised their hands to surrender after hearing the drum.
Lin Mu's people also stopped. They won!
Everyone turned their heads to look at the dazzling white flag in the pavilion, and everyone on Lin Mu's side cheered!
Some soldiers cried, some wailed, and some cheered... All kinds of life were presented on the city wall at this moment.
Lin Mu felt relieved when he saw the white flags. It seemed that Yu Jin's plan was successful.
There are three strategies to capture the king first. The best strategy is to persuade Jiang Qin to surrender, the middle strategy is to capture Jiang Qin and hit the momentum of the soldiers, and the worst strategy is to kill Jiang Qin and intimidate the soldiers with his head.
If the best and middle strategies fail, Lin Mu also has other strategies. He has meteorite talismans in his pocket. At worst, he can use them all to deal with these palace soldiers in one fell swoop.
The current situation shows that the best strategy has succeeded.
…
Before Lin Mu started the rebellion, the defenders of the north wall, united as one, relied on the Yuyao River, which was about one kilometer wide, to resist the large number of elite infantry of Sun Jian's army.
In front of Yuyao City is the natural moat, Yuyao River. Before the war, a rather majestic stone bridge connected the north gate and the opposite bank.
However, after the war broke out, Zhou Tai acted decisively and destroyed the stone bridge to prevent the enemy from directly passing through the stone bridge and attacking the city.
The destruction of the stone bridge brought great obstacles to Sun Jian's troops in attacking the city.
In desperation, they could only use ships to transport troops.
…
When Lin Mu won a great victory, the north gate was also in flames, and the tragic situation was even worse!
After Zhou Tai learned that the south city wall had fallen, he wanted to mobilize some troops to assist Jiang Qin. However, as if he had expected it, Sun Jian's troops came out in full force and delayed Zhou Tai's military strength.
Helpless Zhou Tai could only take care of this side and prepare to defend against Sun Jian's wave of offensive.
If they could repel this wave of attacks, they could turn their guns around and deal with Lin Mu...
On the Yuyao River, densely packed ships filled the entire river. After Sun Jian learned of Lin Mu's actions, he immediately launched a tentative attack.
After the two groups of exploratory transport ships were repelled, Sun Jian suddenly changed his formation, with some huge warships in the front and a large number of high-level transport ships in the back, and began to forcefully cross the river to transport troops and attack the city.
The sailors on the transport ships carried a large number of huge trees. Under the cover of the warships, they began to build wooden bridges to facilitate the attack of the infantry behind.
When Zhou Tai saw this, he understood that Sun Jian was determined to force the attack!
In the previous days of siege battles, such tactics were not implemented. Now that a wooden bridge is forcibly built, it must be a decisive move.
On the city wall, densely packed arrows like rain were constantly thrown, buzzing.
Some arrows also carried burning kerosene, which would ignite the wooden ships after hitting them.
On the river, many ships were on fire because of the failure to put out the fire in time, illuminating the river.
On the city wall, some catapults also began to throw huge stones, constantly hitting the warships and transport ships.
Huge stones fell from the sky and hit the transport ships, and many soldiers on the ships were directly killed.
Bang! ~~~ Bang! ~~~
The river in the dark night was like boiling, splashing countless waves.
Arrows, stones and other city defense materials all poured down, causing great damage to the soldiers attacking the city.
"Ah..." Countless wailing sounds echoed on the Yuyao River in the dark night.
Sun Jian also paid a very high price for the siege.
In Sun Jian's camp, the burly Sun Jian frowned slightly. This Zhou Tai is indeed a good defender of the city. He arranged the city defense one after another, trying his best to cause the greatest damage to his side and weaken them!
However, casualties are casualties. I must break through Yuyao City as soon as possible, enter Kuaiji County, and get a share of the spoils!
As time went by, the battle became more and more intense. On the river, there were countless shipwrecks, broken wooden boards, and even many soldiers' bodies floating. They were densely packed and very scary.
If it was during the day, the whole river might be blood red!
Standing on the city wall, Zhou Tai became more and more uneasy as the tragic situation of the siege lasted longer.
The ships of Sun Jian's army, relying on the number of piles, slowly advanced to a distance of 100 meters from the shore!
The rough wooden bridge made by man was also slowly laid here.
The battle situation at this time has caused uneasiness among many generals in the high pavilion. Some knowledgeable counselors even trembled and their faces gradually turned pale.
Sun Jian's foundation was so profound that the war preparations were endless, and they penetrated the one-kilometer-wide Yuyao River!
After a stick of incense, in Sun Jian's camp.
"Cheng Pu, Huang Gai, Han Dang, Zu Mao, you lead your troops and follow me to the battle. This time, I want to capture Zhou Tai alive!" Sun Jian looked at the rather rough wooden bridge, roared, and instructed.
It's time to launch a real siege!
Soon, Sun Jian took the lead, led the four great generals, rushed across the Yuyao River, landed on the other side, and started hand-to-hand combat.
Zhou Tai had already deployed heavy troops on the open ground under the city, and as long as Sun Jian's soldiers crossed the river, they would immediately contain them.
"Archers, prepare, projectile!"
"Projectile, don't stop!" The generals of the defending army began to get a little anxious and kept urging the archers.
And the other defending soldiers also kept pouring down the defending supplies, causing great damage to Sun Jian's troops!
At the cost of more than 100,000 soldiers, Sun Jian captured the other side and began to hit the city gate!
"My Lord, the current situation is not good. Although we have crossed the river and occupied the other side, this city gate is stronger than expected and cannot be broken in a short time. The defenders on the city wall are attacking desperately, which makes everyone a little overwhelmed!" Cheng Pu reported.
"How about we use that prop?" As Sun Jian's chief general, Cheng Pu's suggestion is very important.
Sun Jian, covered in armor, frowned and looked at it. He also felt that this was not a solution. He needed to use the bottom of the box!
...
On Lin Mu's side, after Jiang Qin surrendered, he immediately settled the surrendered soldiers, confiscated their weapons and equipment, and only left warm clothes and food.
The smooth battlefield made Lin Mu quite relieved. However, after He Yuan counted his own casualties, Lin Mu felt a pain in his heart: 40,000 killed and 150,000 wounded!
This does not include Yun Qi's troops. His side is even more tragic. There are only 20,000 remnants of 100,000 troops left!
Not counting the casualties of the players, Lin Mu's side, 120,000 people were killed!
Out of 300,000 people, only 180,000 people are left, a full 40% loss rate!
What makes Lin Mu even more sad is that his 3,000 elite cavalrymen have also lost nearly 1,000 people, and the death rate of the vanguard has reached one-third!
These soldiers, except for a few generals who have bound the Qinglian Soul Lantern, basically cannot be resurrected and will perish forever!
When Lin Mu was sad about the casualties of the soldiers, players such as Qingguo Zijing came to discuss the next strategy with Lin Mu, whether to continue?
Lin Mu sent them away casually, and the next step was to capture the City Lord's Mansion of Yuyao City, which was easier than capturing the city wall, and no players were needed!
After that, it was time to plunder, and the players were even more of a burden.
In fact, the players also gained a lot from this siege, although their casualties were also heavy.
Lin Mu promised these players that as long as the mansion soldiers surrendered to them, they could take them away, including all the supplies on them.
In addition, they also have a chance to share the spoils of killing the palace soldiers, but in order not to cause chaos, Lin Mu prohibits players from collecting the supplies on the ground. This is one of Lin Mu's three rules.
The county magistrate's mansion, the county lieutenant's barracks and other important places must be collected by Lin Mu, and players must not touch them. This is another rule!
There is another one, that is, you must not disturb the people, otherwise you will be killed without mercy!
Experience, weapons, equipment and other supplies have made the surviving players rich. Many of these guys still hold wooden spears and sticks before going to the battlefield!
Qingguo Zijing and others know that it is time to harvest next, and they are all excited and ready to do a big job.
There are still many scattered palace soldiers in the city who were dispersed before, and the things on these palace soldiers can make them a lot of money!
After Lin Mu asked He Yuan and others to deal with the affairs here, he took Yu Jin and Zang Ba and led 30,000 soldiers who were not seriously injured to rush to the county magistrate's mansion in Yuyao City!
The property in the mansion, hoping to compensate for some of the losses!
