At noon, the sun was scorching hot, and the sky was cloudless.
There is Zheng County, another strong city in South Korea, less than a hundred miles away from Wucheng. Zheng County is located on the main road on the border between Qin and Han. It is a road directly into Xinzheng, the capital of South Korea, so the city here is also high and thick, and a large amount of military supplies, food and grass are hoarded here.
Zheng County has a total of 6,000 elite infantry stationed there, and the terrain there is relatively narrow, which is not conducive to large-scale enemy attacks, so it can be said to be easy to defend and difficult to attack.
The city walls of Zheng County are as high as five feet, and they are all made of huge and heavy boulders. , These are the glorious imprints and war remnants that this city has experienced before.
Both the layout and the decoration of the whole city are very simple, even a little rough. The combination of the tall city walls and the extremely wide area of ??the city seems to be guarded by a giant beast, giving a sense of vicissitudes and grandeur. Come on.
On the city wall, there are Korean soldiers wearing distinctive armor and holding sharp weapons. They are powerful and full of energy as they march. Vigilant, loyal to duty.
There is no slack or slack in the slightest because of the scorching sun now. They are still so full of energy. It is enough to see that they are a well-trained and disciplined army. It is in stark contrast to those lazy defenders in Wucheng before.
The city wall is also properly arranged, every five steps there is an arrow stack, every ten steps there is a large pile of stones and giant logs used to defend the city, some clear water, etc., and a large number of bows and crossbows waiting to be stretched.
All the things are properly arranged, and these arrangements form a solid line of defense that is sufficient to deal with any emergencies without any panic.
Combined with the training of those soldiers before, and such a well-arranged city defense, it is enough to know that the general guarding Zheng County is not an unknown person, he can be called a military disciplined, well-trained, and military-capable general talent!
While these Korean soldiers were patrolling, a man in his 40s with a serious Chinese face, wearing a bronze armor full of sword scars, came up from under the city wall, Behind him were dozens of fully armed personal guards. He was seriously inspecting the city defense with a serious face, and reminded from time to time to rectify some unreasonable places, and he must be perfect.
"Here, and here! Be sure to add some crossbows and defensive equipment. This is the place where the enemy's key attacks are most likely to be attacked, and it is also the place where damage is most likely to be caused! Also, be sure to equip more shields. These shields can help us Soldiers reduce casualties!"
This middle-aged man is Chen Ling, the city guard of Zheng County, and he explained seriously to a general beside him.
"Yes, general, the last general will remember!"
"Meet the general!"
"Meet the general!"
As far as he went, every Korean soldier he met would salute very respectfully. Obviously, they were very satisfied and awed by the commander Chen Ling. He was very deterrent and commanding, and everyone respected him. At the same time, this can also show his extraordinary military talent.
"Continue to patrol!" He encouraged the soldiers, and then continued to inspect the city defense fortifications.
"yes!"
After Chen Ling inspected the city defense, he did not leave. Instead, he stood on the city wall and looked into the distance quietly without speaking.
In other words, how could Chen Ling have such extraordinary military talents as an ordinary second-rate border town guard? It is conceivable that he should have such an unknown past.
It turns out that Chen Ling used to be the commander-in-chief of the 50,000 Korean army. His achievements were astonishing and he had a great reputation in Korea. Unfortunately, when King Han ascended the throne, he promoted the generals he trusted and demoted some veterans. He was also clearing the list. In fact, it's just that he didn't show any flaws at that time, so he was saved from disaster.
And Ji Wuye also became the general of South Korea at this time. Following the incompetence of the King of Han, Ji Wuye took control of the government and wiped out the enemies, so he was demoted to this remote frontier city.
He was a little tired and chilled at the beginning, but since he had already taken up his post, he couldn't let him slack off, so it took him several years to train these six thousand elites with difficulty. Of course, in his heart, these should not be regarded as ?Wei Wei was taken aback, and looked at Zhao Chen with fearful eyes.
"Surrender quickly! Kill, kill, kill!" The cavalry echoed one after another, and the sound shook all directions.
For a while, the whole scene was only left with the murderous roars, and the Han army became timid, and their fighting spirit weakened.
"A mere stinky child! How dare you be so arrogant! We are Korean soldiers, and we are the king's salary and loyalty to the king!
Soldiers! Behind you is our family, we will defend our homeland to the death! Can you watch them attack our homeland? Tell me louder! "
Chen Ling immediately sensed that something was wrong, and quickly cursed at Zhao Chen, and then asked them back in an impassioned tone, hoping to stimulate their fighting spirit in this way.
"No! Swear to the death to defend your homeland! Kill, kill, kill!"
It was Chen Ling's words that successfully aroused the fighting spirit of these Korean troops, minimized the influence of Zhao Chen just now, and inspired the morale of all soldiers, which is enough to see Chen Ling's talent.
"Presumptuous! How dare you do this! Look at the arrow!"
Zhao Chen was also a little angry when he heard his words, he thrust the halberd into the ground, "Get the bow!"
Zhao Chen said to Guan Fei, and stretched out his left hand.
"My lord, the bow and arrow have been brought!"
Zhao Chen took the bow and arrow, took out a long arrow, bent the bow and set the arrow directly on the horse, and shot it at the handsome flag on the city wall. The lightning, which made people unable to react in time, directly shot off the tall flagpole with the word "Chen" hanging on it.
"Crack! Peng!" The flagpole was shot out of a big hole in an instant, and the entire flagpole began to wobble and break from it, falling on the city wall, directly crushing and injuring many Korean soldiers, and wailing everywhere on the city wall for a while.
"This is what will happen to you! Those who don't surrender will be killed on the day they break the city!" Zhao Chen sneered.
This blow directly disintegrated the morale and fighting spirit that Chen Ling had built up with great difficulty just now, and everyone became silent and did not speak.
Chen Ling knew that they were already scared, the enemy's strategy had succeeded, and this battle became more and more difficult!
"Zhao Chen! Zhao Chen! It's as terrifying as the rumors say, and you can shoot down my handsome flag with an arrow from such a distance. It's terrifying for future generations!"
Chen Ling looked at Zhao Chen with complicated eyes, thinking secretly in his heart.
At this time, Zhao Chen did not immediately launch an offensive. He returned to the formation and began to arrange an offensive strategy later. After all, the idea of ??preparing for a surprise attack before is now useless, so he can only prepare an offensive plan again, otherwise he will rely on them alone. The cavalry will suffer heavy losses.
He didn't want to cause these unnecessary casualties. These soldiers of the Qin army were here to make contributions, not to die!
So he can't allow too many casualties in the army. This is also a great opportunity for him to make a big splash in the army, make a name for himself and expand his influence, which can lay a better foundation for his reputation in the army. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
