Chapter 58 Why

"It's ready, let it go!" Everyone did not hear the sound of gold outside the northern city, but the observer on the city tower waved the flags one after another, and the last few iron bullets were transported to the western position of the city. The cannon leader immediately sent him to the Wei army in the west. After the "kick" sound, the hanger "huh--" threw the skin bag with a hanger, and the iron bullet flew away under the sun.

"Stop! Quickly throw!" The throwing hand behind the car rushed forward with the lit fire bullet in his arms, trying to repeat the scene of the fire burning Chai Fan last night.

"Ah." In the flash of lightning, the language expression was slow, with only a sound of "Ah" containing countless meanings. A sanitation in the first row broke forward in a row regardless of the emergency, and the spear pointed at the Wei Zhu. After he ran out for a few steps, the commander of the soldier saw the fire bullet in the hand of Wei Zhu and shouted: "Fire, fire bullet! Fire bullet! Raise the shield..."

"Rise the shield!" All the round shields on the left arm were raised. Although they could not protect the whole body, they could at least block some fire bombs.

"Stop!" Seeing the Chu soldiers protruding out of the military formation, the Wei army in the chariot immediately ordered. The Wei soldiers who were running forward said, "Ah" and the fire bullet in their hands was pushed out with all their might. In an instant, the dark wine jar rolled in the sun with flames.

"Boom--!" At the same time, the black shadow flew over at high speed and smashed hard on the surface, shaking up several feet of dust. With this dust, the rebounding iron bomb passed by several Wei soldiers who dropped bombs with a "bang" and finally hit a military cart. The military cart broke through the wood chips splash, and the horse neighed. The iron bullet that broke the military cart was unstoppable. He continued to rush forward, jumped for hundreds of steps before he turned around and stopped.

"Boom, boom..." The iron bomb was not one, but several. Some were far away from the Wei army formation. One of them even hit the Wei army formation with a flat sanitation spear. The iron bomb penetrated several Wei soldiers diagonally before finally landing, and then bounced up again, knocked down several Wei soldiers to roll away.

The blasting was like a knife slashing. Where the iron bomb was raging, the Wei Zhu Shang himself was thrown away in the distance, and his lower body was still standing in place. After the fountain-like blood flowed, the colorful internal organs and intestines slid all over the ground. "Bang!" The fire bomb came, and the wine jar that was thrown in advance fell in front of the Yi spear. After it fell to the ground, several clusters of flames rose. The internal organs on the ground were burned and the intestines squeaked.

The iron bombs fell to the ground and roared, stirring up dust and dust. The Wei soldiers had already fled for a long time, and no one dared to move forward a step until someone waved the flag on the roof of a certain north side shouted in Chu language: "The bomb drop has stopped! The bomb drop has stopped!"

The spear formation penetrated the Wei army formation, and nearly 10,000 strikes were defeated by the last few iron bullets, and there was no need for environmental sanitation to attack. They were like pillars in the torrent, standing in the flood with spears, motionless.

The attack formation collapsed and fled, and the sound of gold rose again in the distance. The martial soldiers had to follow them and retreat, but these people still maintained a complete array. The eyes of the sanitation spear formation were still unwilling to see. Some martial soldiers even shot a few arrows. They were soon suppressed by the archers who followed him and had to raise their shields and run to the middle tower of the west city.

"Report——! Our army defeated the Wei army, our army defeated the Wei army." The two-story building is called a building. Chen Ying did not have a building, only a bungalow. As soon as the flag flag turned out of the royal city, all the sanitation soldiers and county soldiers in the city saw it. When the county soldiers on the northern city wall shouted 'Long live the king', the sanitation soldiers also saw the flag flag. The person who sent the order rushed towards the flag flag, shouting that the Wei army was defeated.

"Where is Yang Wei?" Xiong Jing was already at the intersection in the middle of Chen Ying, but Chen Ying, which is thirty miles in circumference, has seven or eight miles in all directions. There are no buildings at the intersection, so he could not see the situation in Xicheng and Beicheng at all.

"General Yang defeated the military soldiers of the Wei army and were heading west and recovering the city gate." The sanitation greeted him, and the person was very excited, with a smile on his face.

"I Chen Bi has seen the king!" Chen Bi finally came out. When he saw Xiong Jing, he quickly got out of the car and picked the helmet. "I have recovered the south gate of Xicheng, and the soldiers of Yiruyi quickly recovered the middle gate of Xicheng."

"Well." Chen Chui-sei was responsible for defending the city. It was his fault for being broken by the enemy. However, being able to recover the city gate was considered a redeemable sin. Xiong Jing did not ask why he lost it, but only asked: "Can the city be recovered before dark?"

The enemy's attack at night led to the fall of the city. If the city fails to recover at night, and the 400,000 troops attack again, Chen Ying will definitely lose. Chen Ying also knew this truth, and he said: "I will be able to recover Zhong, the two gates of the north, please do not worry."

"The King of Chu is here?" Lin Jiao was a little unbelievable when he heard his subordinates' reports. Chen Ying City was broken, how could the King of Chu enter the city? How many reinforcements did the King of Chu bring in the city? The Qin army has retreated back to the camp. Even if the King of Chu has not brought reinforcements, the morale of the Chu army will be greatly boosted.

Lin Jiao thought of many questions in an instant, and his subordinates naturally didn't know what the general was thinking, so he pointed to a place in the city and replied: "Yes, General, please look... that's the flag of the King of Chu."

Holding the Lu Li mirror left by General Chu, Lin Jiao finally saw the flag fluttering in the wind. The dragon was flying in the sun, the dragon on the flag rose and fell, and the flag end and bell shone even more in the sun.

In addition to the flag, another big flag was flying in the air, and the pattern on it attracted Lin Kok - it was a colorful bird with a proud neck and a double flower crown. Its wings spread horizontally, raised upwards like a human, with its forearm erect, and its wings were bent and hooked inward. It was not too strange for the bird to make such a posture. What was really strange was that the bent wing tail actually had one eye, and there were two bird heads.

"What is this?" Lin Jiao handed Lu Lijing to the counselor beside him, "Bird, there is a three-headed strange bird on the flag."

"Bird?" The strategist was a little unfamiliar with Lu Lijing. He held this novel thing stiffly and finally saw the strange bird that Lin Jiao said. "Report to the general, it is a phoenix. The Chu people respect phoenixes, which is a phoenix. The phoenix head is a flower crown, which is a fairy tree robe. I once sighed: 'I heard that there is a bird in the south, whose name is a phoenix. One person has three heads, and I have to wait for robe'. This is a phoenix with three heads, which will last forever."

The strategist carefully handed Lu Lijing back to Lin Jiao and finally said: "The Chu people value witches, and the King of Chu is a spiritual practitioner among the witches. The King of Chu has arrived."

"Report——!" Someone rushed over on the north side and shouted before he could approach: "Report to General, the North Gate was captured by the Chu army."

The north gate is not the gate of the north city, but the north gate of the west city. The south gate was just recovered by the Chu army. Now Lin Jiao is the only middle gate. Fifty thousand troops entered the city. Because the city is narrow, the Chu army resisted fiercely. No more than 40,000 people actually entered the city, and no less than 30,000 Chu troops in the city were less than 30,000. Moreover, the five thousand martial soldiers were defeated just now, and the King of Chu came again...

"Tell all generals to guard our sect!" Lin Jiao never thought of quitting, and he would still have to guard the central sect no matter what.

"Report!" Another person rushed up to the city tower and shouted: "Xiangbang ordered the general to withdraw from Chencheng, and those who violated the military law will be dealt with!"

"Oh!" This side had just been defeated, and the other side ordered the withdrawal of troops. Lin Jiao sighed heavily, and what made him even more desperate was that the Wei camp made a loud sound at this time. This was the order to withdraw the troops. The soldiers and generals led them to retreat outside the city involuntarily after hearing the golden sound.

"General, the situation is over. Please withdraw from Chencheng." Several deputy generals bowed and told him. One of them even said: "Maybe the King of Qin's idea has changed again, and he will withdraw his troops again this time."

Even the generals of the Wei army were as unfamiliar as common people. Faced with all kinds of incredible actions, they could only accept them and protect themselves. Last time they said they had to attack Chu and Chu, and the army had reached the Chu territory. The Qin people changed their minds and stopped attacking them. The Wei army had to withdraw their troops. Later, Wei Chu was about to make friends again, but the Qin people suddenly said they wanted to attack Chu again. Now the Wei army generals were not surprised that they would attack Chu again, and they had long been accustomed to it.

"Yes. General, the prime minister obeys the Qin people in everything, but the Qin people are not attacking each other for a while, so they are no longer taking it seriously. Why should we take it seriously?" The sound of gold outside the city became more and more urgent, and the battles in the city were getting closer and closer, and more and more deputy generals were favoring the withdrawal of troops.

"General?" Several deputy generals all looked at Lin Jiao. They had long since wanted to fight such a cowardly battle.

"Retreat." Lin Jiao bit his cheeks again and again, and the word "retreat" was squeezed out from his teeth. He always wanted to go back to the camp and ask Xiangbang why he wanted to withdraw his troops by himself.

"Ah! You said, the King of Chu has arrived in Chencheng?!" Lin Jiao, who withdrew from Chen Ying, was about to ask why Xiangbang withdrew his troops. Unexpectedly, Zi Ji had no intention of answering, but instead asked if the King of Chu had really arrived in Chencheng.

"Yes, although I did not see the person, I saw the flag and the phoenix flag. I dare to ask the Xiangbang that our army was released into the city by bloody battles, so why did we evacuate from Chencheng again? Isn't the blood of the soldiers..." Lin Jiao was still pursuing the withdrawal of Chencheng, and he didn't know that the King of Chu was the focus of everything.

"The attack on this battle was not for Chen City but for the King of Chu." Zi Ji answered casually, and then hurried out of the shogunate. Before getting on the car, he instructed the army to prepare to attack the city tonight, and this time he hurried to the Qin camp.

"King Jing has arrived in Chencheng?" Xin Wu, who heard that the King of Chu had entered the city, was overjoyed. "Is this true?"

"General Lin Jiao saw it with his own eyes, it was correct." Zi Ji said. "It's a pity that our army has withdrawn from Chencheng, otherwise..."

"No." Xin Wu shook his head. "The Jing people have a boat army. Even if the city is broken, the Jing people will escort King Jing to board the boat and leave. Can the 400,000 Qin and Wei troops walk on the waves?"

"The general's intention... is to capture King Jing alive?" Zi Ji was a little puzzled. Chencheng is a prosperous county in Chu State. If the Chu State has no king, why should I deliberately capture the King of Chu? Could it be that the art of giant iron and warships were really created by the King of Chu? The reason why the Qin people wanted to capture King of Chu was to force him to speak out the two techniques?

"Why should I capture myself alive?" Xin Wu asked back. "I am just worried that King Jing will escape on the warship." After saying this, he smiled again and said, "This time I attacked Jing, the king only ordered me to kill King Jing, and never asked me to capture King Jing alive."

"Why do you have to kill King Jing?" Ziji forgot his identity for a moment because of curiosity.
