Chapter 768: Stalemate, secret weapon



what to do?

What else can I do?

Having just experienced a day and night of fighting, the 10,000 soldiers in the city, although not suffering heavy casualties, were already exhausted.

If we go out of the city to provide reinforcements now, how should we do so?

Five thousand troops on each side?

Do you still want Tucheng?

Moreover, as soon as they leave the city, the army of Southern Chu will surely surge in again.

When that time came, we just asked someone to make dumplings for us.

So, there is nothing we can do but watch.

However, judging from the situation, if the mountains on both sides were captured by the Southern Chu Army, the result would be the same and they would be impossible to defend.

Therefore, Xiao Danglu's face became extremely ugly.

Seeing this situation, Zhao Hao's heart sank to the bottom.

The Southern Chu army, instead of charging and attacking fiercely, actually took a fancy to the art of war!

Now, all they can do is watch and see whether the 5,000 soldiers on each side can hold their positions by force.

The good news is that the Southern Chu Army does not have many large kites, only about two hundred or so.

More than one hundred were used on each side.

There were two soldiers from the Southern Chu Army on each large kite. After flying above the mountain, they quickly threw bombs down.

The sound of explosions came one after another.

Many Gan army soldiers quickly sought cover after suffering the first wave of bombardment.

However, it still caused considerable casualties.

Immediately afterwards, the Southern Chu army launched a strong attack from below.

Following the attacking team, catapults also followed.

However, what the catapult threw were not stones or anything else, but bombs.

However, the Southern Chu Army obviously had no experience in using thunder bombs.

Some of the bombs exploded before they hit the ground after being thrown out by catapults.

No casualties were caused.

However, the number of their bombs is obviously very large.

This allows them to keep throwing.

Everyone stood on the top of the city wall, watching the continuous attack of the Southern Chu army, their hands clenched into fists.

Zhao Hao took a deep breath and his mind kept working.

However, in such a hurry, no one could think of any way to reverse the situation.

"What should I do?"

"What should I do?"

The more anxious you are, the more out of control your brain becomes.

Especially when he saw the Nanchu soldiers climbing towards the top of the mountain, his brain seemed to be out of control.

He forced himself to calm down, turned around and walked down the city wall, returning to the central military tent inside the city.

"Calm down. You must calm down now. Only when you calm down can you think of a solution."

"What should I do?"

"The main force of our army cannot leave the city to fight, so we can only rely on the earthen city for defense."

"But if the mountains on both sides are breached, the earthen city will be undefendable sooner or later."

"Since the soldiers cannot leave the city, we can only use other methods..."

"What method can turn the tide?"

Just when Zhao Hao was deep in thought, bursts of thunder suddenly came from outside the city.

This is the Gan army using thunder bombs to attack the Southern Chu army.

However, the soldiers on the two sides of the mountain did not have many bombs in their hands.

I don’t know how long I can hold on.

Not long after, the sound of the bomb explosion ended.

Instead, there were shouts and cries of killing.

Zhao Hao didn't think about it anymore, but walked out of the central military tent and went to the top of the city again.

The Gan army was in a dominant position, relying on the favorable terrain to shoot arrows downwards.

Because of the steep mountains, the Southern Chu army was unable to form a large-scale attack team.

They could only send out a small group of soldiers to climb the mountain in secret and with difficulty.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Hao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

In this case, it would not be easy for the Southern Chu army to capture the two mountains on the left and right.

However, under the influence of the catapults, the casualties of the Gan army soldiers on the top of the mountain were increasing.

Below, the soldiers of Nan Chu were still climbing up.

Although some of them were shot dead by the Gan army, there were still more soldiers moving forward.

Zhao Hao stood behind Xiao Danglu and the others, and saw Yu Ping said, "Old General, we still have to find a way to stop it!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid the two mountains on the left and right won't be able to hold out for too long!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Danglu snorted coldly and turned to look at Yu Ping.

"You lead everyone and take turns guarding the city walls!"

Then he looked at Zhao Hao and said, "Come back with me!"

Zhao Hao nodded and followed Xiao Danglu, and the two returned to the central military tent again.

Xiao Danglu looked at Zhao Hao and asked, "Little Mouse, you haven't thought of a solution either?"

Zhao Hao took a deep breath and shook his head: "General Xiao, I really can't think of any good solution at the moment."

"Now, we can only wait and see how long the soldiers on the two mountains can hold out!"

Xiao Danglu nodded and then sighed.

"yes."

"We are now in a difficult situation. We can only wait and see how much time these bad guys can buy us!"

"If the attack fails for a long time, the Southern Chu Army will definitely give up!"

"I am afraid that they have made up their minds to take the two mountains on the left and right first, and then build a city."

The soldiers on the hills on both sides could clearly see the situation inside the city.

Seeing that there was no movement in the city, they gradually realized that the city would not send reinforcements.

This not only did not undermine their morale, but instead increased the soldiers' determination to fight to the death!
