Waves of loud shouts of killing resounded throughout the sky. As the city gate was lost, the city walls were also occupied by the Qin army one after another. The Qin army quickly began to occupy various archery towers and began to draw bows and shoot arrows against the inside of the city.
Suddenly, the entire western area of ??Handan City was plunged into a bloody fight. The Qin army wanted to suppress the Korean army defending the city as soon as possible and expand its victory. The Korean army defending the city is making its last effort. If the street fighting at this moment still fails, then Handan City will really be lost.
But even so, most people on the Korean side also know that if no miracle occurs, the city gates and walls have been lost one after another, and a large number of Qin troops have poured into the city. Even if the street fighting can be delayed for a while, Handan City will eventually be lost. Just a matter of time.
Throughout so many years of history, there are very few examples of cities that were able to turn defeat into victory after the city gates and walls fell and entered the final street battle, and the attacking party was driven back, and it is almost unheard of.
You must know that those who can be forced to shrink and defend the city are the helpless choices when they cannot compare with the attacking party in terms of military strength, morale, etc. In the case of unequal combat power, the city walls and gates they relied on fell one after another, which was a serious blow to morale.
But the Qin army, who knew this well, did not relax at all. The offensive was wave after wave. More and more Qin soldiers entered the city, then spread out and spread out in all directions.
Although the black-armored knights who suddenly appeared in the city have amazing combat power, in comparison, they are even inferior to the general Qin army. But the number was too small after all. The cavalry team of less than 2,000 people initially caused huge casualties to the Qin army by charging quickly. However, as time went on, thousands or even tens of thousands of people from both sides were fighting in the western city area, which compressed the space very little, which seriously affected the cavalry's combat effectiveness.
Originally, the cavalry was supposed to produce huge lethality by sprinting on the vast plains. Nowadays, in a city with complex terrain and small space, the combat effectiveness that can be exerted is greatly reduced.
Simply the appearance of these black armored knights. It gave the defeated Korean army some hope. Today, within about two miles of the city wall, tens of thousands of people are fighting together.
Only a few Qin soldiers were seen holding spears and halberds. Just after turning a corner, I heard a sound breaking through the air. Then, before they could react, more than a dozen arrows fell from the sky. In an instant, three people were shot in vital parts of the body and fell to the ground.
In more places, the Qin army, ranging from a dozen to dozens of people, gathered together in an orderly manner, and then forced the Korean army hiding in various corners to retreat steadily.
Under the huge difference in individual strength between the two sides. Generally speaking, even if the Korean army relies on familiarity with the terrain and uses sneak attacks to fight, for every Qin army who dies, at least three or four Korean soldiers will pay their lives.
This is not only the difference in the strength of the armor on the body, but also the difference in the sharpness of the weapons in their hands. What is more, it is the difference in the ferocity and strength of the soldiers on both sides when they fight. And between the two. The morale was already very different. On one side were the people who had just broken through the city walls and gates and entered the city with a rainbow of momentum.
On the other side, after being forced to defend the city for more than ten days, it was now lost. If it hadn't been for the appearance of the group of black-armored knights, the street fighting might have ended long ago, because most of the Korean soldiers and even the generals had lost the idea of ??resistance.
"Cang!"
The crisp sound of gold and iron. Only a black-armored knight and his mount were seen, being hit by a huge force and retreating continuously. And in front of him. A female general who was also riding on a war horse had a serious expression, and a spear in her hand made a strange arc. He stabbed towards the black-armored knight again.
This female general is none other than the vanguard general of the Qin Army, Zhang Zhi! After breaking through the city gate, she served as the vanguard and rushed to the front. At the same time, he was also the first to encounter the black-armored knight who appeared in the city.
After a brief exchange, Zhang Zhi looked at the group of people who were all wrapped in black armor with some horror. It has to be said that in terms of combat effectiveness, this group of black-armored knights might as well give in to the famous Iron Cavalry of the Tiger Guards in the Qin Army. And this group of black-armored knights, all wrapped in armor, are even better in terms of defense!
In a few short rounds of fighting, although Zhang Zhi relied on his powerful martial arts to kill several black-armored knights, he also found that the ordinary soldiers of the Qin Army were obviously unable to resist this group of black-armored knights.
Fortunately, the number of these black-armored knights is not large. Surrounded by countless Qin troops, although they have caused some casualties, they themselves are also decreasing rapidly.
"Lieutenant!" Zhang Zhi turned his head deftly to dodge the thrust of a black-armored knight, pulled out the sword from his waist with his backhand, and cut off the head of the black-armored knight, then pointed at the side.?The general shouted.
"Here, what are the orders from the young general?!" Although the deputy general was good at martial arts, he was obviously not as calm as Zhang Zhi.
After killing many black-armored knights, I was somewhat out of breath.
"You lead five hundred people and rush after me! We can't go on like this!"
Although Zhang Zhi was struggling with this group of black-armored knights just now, he also observed the surrounding battle situation. Although the Qin army is now as powerful as a rainbow, its military strength and morale have the upper hand. However, due to the expected rapid occupation, the Korean army's plan to abandon the city and surrender did not materialize.
Perhaps the appearance of the black-armored knights boosted morale. Although the situation was obviously still under the control of the Qin army, the street fighting was advancing step by step towards the inner city. However, seeing the huge casualties, Zhang Zhi gritted his teeth and made a decision.
"Major General, isn't this too risky?"
The deputy general was obviously hesitant. Although the Korean army in Handan City had a chance to survive due to the appearance of the black-armored knights, they were obviously unable to make a comeback.
At this time, Zhang Zhi¡¯s choice was somewhat impulsive. Although the number of those black-armored knights was small, hundreds of them were killed during this period of charging, but there were still more than a thousand people left. It was quite dangerous for Zhang Zhi to rush in like this.
"This group of black-armored knights is the morale of the Korean army in Handan City. Only by defeating them can they give up resistance!"
In fact, Zhang Zhi still didn't say a word, that is, she had a very vague feeling in her heart at the moment, as if something had escaped Qin Jun's control, and a very dangerous aura was getting closer and closer.
In addition, many Qin soldiers died at the hands of those black-armored knights, which made Zhang Zhi, who always treated the generals and soldiers below as a family, very heartbroken!
The deputy general hesitated for a moment, then nodded. Zhang Zhi was the vanguard general in this siege, and he was also the daughter of General Zhang Han, also known as the Major General. Unless her decision is the kind that makes someone commit suicide or surrender, she will generally not suffer backlash.
At this moment, the deputy general also saw the influence of the black armored knight on the entire battle situation, so he thought for a while and responded.
Then about five hundred soldiers who looked tougher than the average Qin army gathered together, and then followed Zhang Zhi and rushed towards the group of black-armored knights.
When the two sides met, they were extremely jealous and immediately fought together.
Nowadays, both the Qin army and the black-armored knights have given up their mounts and transformed into infantry due to the small space and the occasional flying arrows from both sides. As soon as the two sides came into contact, they immediately engaged in hand-to-hand combat.
There is no hatred between the two parties for killing their father and seizing their wives, but at this moment, they are like sworn enemies, eager to tear each other to pieces.
For a time, the elite Qin army led by Zhang Zhi directly entangled this group of black-armored knights. Although they suffered heavy casualties, they successfully restrained the hands and feet of this most troublesome enemy.
In the center of Handan City, where the palace is located, a group of people are anxiously looking at the fierce battle not far away. Outside the palace, there were originally about a thousand guards, but now there were less than two hundred left, and the rest had been sent out to participate in the most brutal street fighting.
"Teacher, do you think my decision this time was right?"
Looking at the somewhat hesitant figure in front of him, Mrs. Zhang opened his mouth, but no words came out. Although he has lived for most of his life, Zhang Taifu has no idea about today's victory or defeat. Originally, he didn't know much about military affairs. The only thing he knew was that if even the last guard, the black-armored knights, couldn't hold back the Qin army, then it would be all over.
"Is that woman already under custody?"
As if he didn¡¯t expect an answer, King Han turned around and looked at the guard commander standing aside.
"Back to your Majesty, the woman named Guan Ying has been locked up by your subordinates."
"I hope she is not deceiving others or a spy of the Qin Dynasty, otherwise!"
A look of cruelty flashed across his face, and no one around him dared to speak. After all, King Han has invested all his money this time. If he is really cheated, he will really lose everything!
Under the city of Handan, the battle situation was becoming more and more in favor of the Qin army. After all, with the huge morale and strength advantages, the Korean army was retreating steadily even with the help of black-armored knights.
At this moment, the originally anxious battle situation changed again. A new force of three thousand people appeared in front of Handan City. The appearance of this Qin army completely broke the previous balance. Han Jun could no longer hold on. No matter how powerful the black-armored knight was, he was unable to recover after being dragged down.
"It's over!" King Han suddenly collapsed on the ground in the palace.
But the next moment, I saw him standing up with a ferocious expression, with a terrifying light in his eyes.
"Go and bring that woman!" The voice that seemed to come from the Nine Nether Abyss made the guard commander shudder.
Looking at King Han's lustful eyes, the guard commander glanced at Taifu Zhang over there with embarrassment. However, at this moment, Taifu Zhang, who had always been calm, also had a very ugly face. He suddenly understood something. It seemed that the two bosses had already taken care of everything. It's the woman's fault. (To be continued)
