Chapter 111 Cross the river, surprise attack! Zhao Fengjian’s extraordinary achievements! ! !
"General."
"Why is the river water at Hongze Ferry not so turbulent now?"
When Zhang Han saw that the originally turbulent water of the Wei River had become calmer and was no longer as rapid as before, he was very surprised.
"When I came to Weicheng, I had already sent people to investigate the water news of the Wei River."
"Every year, when the cold winter is about to pass, in February or March, the water level of the Wei River will drop, and now is the right time." Zhao Feng smiled as he looked at the calm Hongze Ferry in front of him.
Zhang Han's face was filled with shock and admiration.
"I didn't expect that the general had plans for Wei State as soon as he arrived in Weicheng. Such strategies make my subordinates admire him." Zhang Han said from the bottom of his heart.
"There will inevitably be a war between the Qin and Wei Kingdom. The initial investigation was a precautionary measure, and now it has yielded results." Zhao Feng said calmly.
Then.
Wave your hand.
"Archers on alert."
"Once you spot the Wei army on the other side, shoot immediately."
"Use boats and rafts to build a floating bridge so that the army can pass through in an orderly manner." Zhao Feng gave the order loudly.
"I will follow your orders."
All the generals responded in unison.
Then, one after another, the newly built boats and rafts were carried up by the elite soldiers and put into the Wei River, which was no longer as turbulent. According to the previous orders, many elite soldiers slid their oars towards the other side, one after another, side by side. When they reached the other side, hundreds of soldiers immediately landed on the other side, but they did not rush to attack. Instead, they took out the sharp wooden stakes that had been prepared long ago, and took out sledgehammers and nailed them to the ground on the other side.
"iron chain."
The military commander who reached the other side first shouted immediately.
They took out a lot of iron ropes, fixed them to wooden stakes, and then tied them to the raft and the boat.
Afterwards, more rafts and boats were launched, and five or six were connected in a line to form a floating bridge, all of which were fixed with iron cables.
Obviously.
These were also made by the blacksmiths in the army arranged by Zhao Feng early in the morning.
It's for today.
After a while.
"General, the pontoon bridge has been built." Zhang Han reported excitedly.
Through this floating bridge, they could invade the Wei State on the other side and launch a surprise attack.
Zhao Feng didn't say anything, but jumped on his horse, holding the Overlord Spear, a Xuan-level weapon that he had never had the chance to use.
Dressed in black armor, riding a warhorse, holding the Overlord Spear, Zhao Feng looked even more powerful at this moment.
"Brothers."
“The time to become famous is now.”
"The greatest achievement of all time is happening today."
"Follow me and attack the State of Wei, and achieve unprecedented feats." Zhao Feng shouted.
He clamped his legs around the horse's belly, patted the horse, stepped onto the floating bridge, and headed towards the other side.
"I will follow the general till death."
Tens of thousands of soldiers shouted excitedly and followed Zhao Feng, crossing the pontoon bridge one by one and reaching the Wei territory on the opposite bank.
And on the other side.
The location of a military camp established by Wei Wuji.
"Niu Da, shouldn't you be patrolling the Wei River? Why are you still in the camp?"
The general of the Wei State was inspecting the military camp. When he saw the generals who were supposed to be inspecting the Wei River in the military camp, he was surprised and asked.
"Military Marquis."
"I have already patrolled around and found nothing unusual." Niu replied with a big laugh.
"The military order from above is to conduct daily inspections without interruption. Why do you come back after just one inspection?" The military officer frowned and asked in a blaming tone.
"Military Marquis."
"Every camp of 100 generals conducts inspections in this way. The Hongze River is famous for its turbulent currents. Not to mention the Qin army, even large ships would find it difficult to pass through. It's okay." Niu Da said nonchalantly.
A military camp has ten small camps of one hundred generals, and each of them patrols in this way. Although Wei Wuji is very cautious, he has arranged a military camp to watch over Hongzedu, which is difficult to cross. As long as there is any abnormality, this military camp can report to the neighboring military camps and rush to help immediately.
Wei Wuji led an army of 150,000 southward, but he still left tens of thousands of troops to guard his own border.
But Wei Wuji's caution does not mean that his troops will be cautious.
For example, this military camp.
At the beginning, it was still strictly enforced, but as the situation had been calm for such a long time, and thinking that the Wei Dynasty had already been conquered, there was naturally nothing to worry about.
Hear what Niu said.
The military marquis didn't say anything else.
Because he naturally knew about this situation.
But at this moment.
Boom, boom, boom! Suddenly, bursts of roaring sounds were heard.
The whole ground seemed to be shaking.
"What's that sound?"
The military officer was startled and couldn't help but look towards the direction of the Wei River.
distance.
You can see many black Qin flags flying in the air, and under the flags are the black-armored Qin soldiers.
"not good."
"The Qin army has crossed the river."
"Prepare for war."
The general shouted loudly.
But the next moment.
With a whoosh sound.
A sharp arrow came through the air and pierced through Wei Junhou's throat with a "pu" sound. Wei Junhou fell on his back, subconsciously covering the wound on his throat and struggling in pain.
His blood splattered all over the faces of the generals nearby.
The sudden change frightened the general.
But just after that arrow.
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
Thousands of arrows rained down from the void.
“Ah…ah…”
"Enemy attack."
"The Qin army has crossed the river..."
“Quickly retreat…”
The sudden murderous intent caught the Wei army in the military camp off guard. Under the hail of arrows, countless Wei soldiers were shot to death and fell in a pool of blood.
The entire military camp was instantly in chaos, with Wei soldiers fleeing everywhere. Their generals were dead, and no one organized to fight. At this moment, they just wanted to escape, but the rain of arrows was only a part of it.
Qin Jingqi was getting closer and closer, and the sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer.
"kill!"
Zhao Feng took the lead, holding the Overlord Spear, and rushed into the Wei army camp first. He swung the spear in his hand with extremely terrifying power, and several Wei soldiers in front of him were swept away by the Overlord Spear before they had any chance to react.
Bang bang bang.
Several Wei soldiers were directly killed by the shock, and their bodies even crushed and killed several of their companions.
"Kill Wei Baijiang and pick up 5 points of physical fitness."
"Kill the Wei soldiers and pick up 5 points of strength."
"Kill the Wei soldiers and pick up 5 points of speed."
"Kill the Wei soldiers and gain 5 points of speed..."
A series of reminder sounds rang in Zhao Feng's ears.
These are also the sources that stimulate Zhao Feng to kill the enemy.
Behind Zhao Feng, a large number of Qin troops came charging forward. No matter they were elite soldiers or prisoners, each of them wanted to kill the enemy in order to win military merit for themselves.
"Leave no one alive."
Zhao Feng shouted.
The killing continued.
Less than half an hour.
This military camp with a thousand men stationed there was wiped out in blood.
Wait until the battle is over.
"How are the casualties?" After the battle, Zhao Feng immediately looked at Zhang Han and asked.
"Return to the General."
"In this battle, more than seventy of our soldiers were wounded, but no one was killed." Zhang Han replied immediately.
This battle was a surprise attack.
Zhao Feng killed the Wei army general with one arrow, making it impossible for the camp to fight back.
And with an absolute advantage in military strength, it was natural that they won so easily.
Zhao Feng nodded, and then said: "All soldiers, listen to my orders."
"The soldiers of the prisoner army who didn't have armor took the armor from the Wei army and put it on."
"Rest for an incense stick, and then continue the attack."
"promise."
The soldiers responded immediately.
There is a huge difference in combat power between soldiers with armor and those without armor. This time, all the thousands of Wei soldiers are wearing armor, so Zhao Feng will naturally let his criminal soldiers wear armor to enhance their combat power.
…
Weicheng!
The Wei army was still charging madly.
Without Zhao Feng personally commanding the troops to guard the city, and without the double blessing of the official seal of luck, although the soldiers guarding Weicheng were still defending to the death, their combat effectiveness was still far behind.
Tu Sui and Wei Quan guarded the city wall and supervised the battle.
"If one person dies in battle, another will immediately take his place."
"Ten men will be killed in battle, and ten more will be replaced immediately."
"Give me checkmate."
Tu Sui stood on the city wall and shouted loudly.
Arrows rained down from the city wall, and people were carrying stones and throwing them at the Wei army below.
The siege was extremely brutal.
The entire Weicheng was shrouded in a strong smell of blood, and the air was filled with a pungent smell of blood.
The central army of Wei.
"We have been attacking for three consecutive days."
"There is no chaos in the city. Although the Qin army's combat power has weakened, its defense is still tight."
"perhaps."
"We can only use the Wei Wuzu."
Wei Wuji sighed, with a hint of reluctance in his tone.
Originally, the Wei Wuzu was the biggest trump card in this attack on Qin, and was to be used to defeat Qin in a truly critical moment. Unexpectedly, they would be used in the attack on the first city of Qin.
"No wonder Zhao Feng is so highly regarded by the King of Qin. At the young age of sixteen, he is appointed a general. He is truly capable of commanding troops." said a Wei general.
"This child."
"If you can't be used by our Great Wei, you must not be kept." A murderous look flashed in Wei Wuji's eyes.
Then he immediately made a decision: "Pass on my order to mobilize 20,000 Wei Wu soldiers to attack the city. If the 20,000 cannot break through, the remaining 30,000 Wei Wu soldiers will all go into battle, and the ordinary soldiers will retreat in an orderly manner."
"I will obey your orders."
The armored soldiers beside the chariot responded one after another.
The next moment.
The Wei Wuzu, who had been staying in the rear formation without moving, moved out.
"The Wei warriors will not retreat until they are defeated."
"kill!"
In the rear of the Wei army, 20,000 armored soldiers holding shields and long spears were seen marching out.
Compared with other Wei troops, this group of Wei Wuzu appeared more powerful and well-organized, and pressed towards Weicheng.
On the city wall.
Watch the Wei Wu soldiers go into battle.
Tu Sui frowned, revealing a solemn expression: "Not good."
"What's wrong?" Wei Quan asked puzzledly.
"The Wei Wuzu are out."
"I was wondering why the Wei Wuzu were not there since Wei Wuji of Wei State was leading the troops personally. It turns out they were kept to deal with our Great Qin in the future." Tu Sui said in a deep voice.
"Wei Wuzu?" Wei Quan still looked puzzled.
As a general who rose from an ordinary logistics soldier, Wei Quan completely relied on Zhao Feng, so his understanding was naturally not as good as that of Tu Sui, the former commander of the imperial guards.
Looking at Wei Quan's confusion.
Tu Sui did not keep the secret: "Wei Wuzu, the most elite troops of Wei State, each of them is a strong man, holding a shield in the left hand and a spear in the right hand, with unparalleled combat power."
"Many years ago, when the State of Wei was strong, the Wei Wuzu even caused my Great Qin to suffer a lot of losses. The land west of the Yellow River also fell into the hands of the State of Wei. All this was also because of the Wei Wuzu."
"This time, the Wei Wuzu are dispatched, and a real fierce battle is about to begin."
Upon hearing this.
Wei Quan nodded, but sneered: "I understand what you mean. The Wei Wuzu were very strong in the past, but now the soldiers of my Great Qin are not weak either. Moreover, our army has the advantage of defending the city. Even if they are strong, they are isolated by the city walls. If you have the guts, just kill them first."
Tu Sui shook his head and said helplessly: "Brother Wei, you don't know."
"The Wei Wuzu have a characteristic: they will not retreat until they are defeated."
"To fight is to fight to the death."
"Either they all die in battle, or they capture our city."
"Now, do you understand what I mean?"
Wei Quan was stunned and asked in surprise: "Will they continue to attack?"
"good."
"Unless they are all killed, or our city is breached by them." Tu Sui nodded heavily.
This time.
Wei Quan's expression also became solemn.
"Prepare to fight to the death."
"No matter what, Weicheng must not be breached."
"There are only about 70,000 soldiers left in the city who can fight. I don't believe that the Wei Wuzu are really that powerful." Wei Quan tightly gripped the sword at his waist and was not that afraid.
In front of the city.
The Wei Wu soldiers marched forward in an orderly manner.
Facing the rain of arrows from the Qin archers, they raised their shields and advanced steadily. If someone was unfortunately hit by the arrows, as long as they were not injured in vital parts, they would still advance steadily.
soon.
They rushed to the bottom of the city wall.
Some people directly pushed the battering ram to continue attacking the city gate.
Boom, boom, boom.
The sound of impact continued.
Most of them were scattered, holding a shield in one hand and grabbing a ladder in the other, climbing up the city wall. Looking at their skillful movements and speed, it was obvious that they had undergone countless trainings.
Faced with the rolling stones and rain of arrows falling from the city walls, although the Wei Wu soldiers also suffered casualties, they were not as confused as the ordinary Wei soldiers. They continued to climb without any fear of death.
"They are indeed the real elite of the Wei army."
Looking at these ferocious Wei Wu soldiers, Wei Quan couldn't help but be shocked.
From this situation, it can be seen that these Wei Wu soldiers are much stronger than the Wei army.
"You are worthy of being the strongest Wei Wuzu of our Great Wei."
"We will conquer Weicheng within one day."
"Your Majesty should have sent the Wei Wuzu long ago."
Wei Zhongjun, Wei Bo said excitedly.
The war continues.
With the participation of Wei Wuzu, the offensive became more fierce, and many Wei Wuzu had even climbed onto the city walls.
"Brothers."
"Kill the enemy and gain merit."
"The Qin Empire will never forget the merits of any soldier."
"kill."
Tu Sui drew his sword and rushed forward to kill the enemy.
"Swear allegiance to the Qin Dynasty until death."
The soldiers on the city wall also rushed up to fight. When one person came up, several soldiers would rush up and kill him.
And at this time.
The one hundred personal guards that Zhao Feng specially left behind also took action.
"Brothers."
"Use all your strength to kill the enemy."
Zhang Ming let out a low shout.
Just go straight ahead.
Cut down with one sword.
A Wei soldier held up a shield to block, but was blown away by the huge force and fell heavily under the city.
"Kill the enemy." All one hundred guards took action, mobilizing their internal strength and attacking with all their strength.
As Zhao Feng's personal guards, they are also the trump cards that Zhao Feng specially left behind to defend the city. Each of them has the strength of the second or third level of the acquired realm, enough to fight ten people at once. The combat power of a hundred people can be of great use when cooperating with the soldiers defending the city.
And in the city.
Chen Tao and Zhao Tuo were in the rear.
"General."
"The Wei army has attacked the city."
"General Tu Sui and General Wei Quan are currently leading their troops to fight."
A sharp soldier quickly came up to General Chen Tao and reported.
For nearly half a month, the two men have been staying in the rear and have not participated in the battle, but they have always sent people to investigate the situation in the front.
"The combat effectiveness of the Wei army has increased?" Chen Tao asked in surprise.
"This time they are not ordinary Wei troops, but Wei Wuzu of the Wei State." Rui Shi replied.
"What?"
"Wei Wuzu?"
Chen Tao and Zhao Tuo looked at each other with a strong fear.
How could they not know the name of Wei Wuzu?
"The Wei Wu soldiers are out, the real bloody battle is about to begin."
"We may be about to go into battle." Chen Tao said in a deep voice.
Hearing this.
However, Zhao Tuo shook his head and waved his hand, and the sharp warriors in front of him immediately turned around and left.
"Don't you see it yet?"
"Zhao Feng has no intention of letting us go into battle." Zhao Tuo said with a sneer.
"Of course I saw it."
“Among the current Weicheng army, his cronies have all become generals, and Wu Yue Qi Sheng and others also obey Zhao Feng. Only the two of us have been isolated by Zhao Feng.” Chen Tao also said with a sneer.
"Zhao Feng has no intention of letting us defend the city and gain merit. If that's the case, then why should we go?"
"The city was broken. This is Zhao Feng's fault."
"The city has not been taken thanks to Zhao Feng and the generals defending the city. It has nothing to do with us." Zhao Tuo said sarcastically.
"What do you mean?" Chen Tao frowned.
"If Zhao Feng can't hold the city with his 80,000 troops, why should we go ahead?" Zhao Tuo pointed out directly.
Hearing this.
Chen Tao was silent.
to be honest.
He was full of jealousy towards Zhao Feng.
If it weren't for Zhao Feng, the position of deputy general would have belonged to him. It was because of Zhao Feng that he did not become the deputy general and even became Zhao Feng's subordinate. In the eyes of many people, Chen Tao even became a laughing stock.
"Don't be ridiculous."
"If it really comes to that critical moment, and Zhao Feng orders us to go up to the city to defend, we would be guilty of treason if we disobey." Chen Tao came back to his senses.
"What if I say that Zhao Feng is not in the city at all?" Zhao Tuo suddenly asked.
Chen Tao was shocked: "What do you mean? Zhao Feng is not in the city? Could he dare to escape?"
"I don't know the details, but I am sure Zhao Feng is not in the city. At least, Zhao Feng has not been seen in the past few days."
"The ones defending the tower now are Tu Sui and Wei Quan."
"I specially sent people to investigate these." Zhao Tuo said with certainty.
"He's not in the city? What is he doing?"
"Did he go for help? Or did he desert the battlefield?" Chen Tao was guessing at this moment. To him, he even hoped in his heart that Zhao Feng really deserted the battlefield, which would be a real serious crime.
"What he does has nothing to do with us, but if the Wei army really breaks through Weicheng and the frontier defense fails, we will lead our troops to retreat."
"Then we will defend against the Wei army in other cities and wait for reinforcements. This will be a great achievement." Zhao Tuo sneered and had already planned the route after the city was broken.
Hear this.
After pondering for a moment, Chen Tao nodded, obviously agreeing with Zhao Tuo's plan.
"good."
"General Chen."
"If you and I join forces, we will definitely be able to achieve this great feat."
"It will definitely not be a good deal for Zhao Feng." Zhao Tuo immediately said with a smile.
…
Above Weicheng, the war continues.
The Wei Wu soldiers were indeed fierce.
However, under the command of Tu Sui and Wei Quan, even without the blessing of Zhao Feng's official seal of luck, the soldiers on the city wall fought desperately and repelled wave after wave of offensives from Wei Wuzu.
The Great Qin warriors defended desperately, because they were warriors, the Great Qin warriors, and they would never retreat.
The Qin prisoner army defended desperately, because killing the enemy was their future. If they killed one enemy, they would be pardoned from slavery, and if they killed five enemies, they would be granted a title and become a sharp soldier. Moreover, after they died in battle, the Qin would bless their families and provide pensions.
This means they have no worries at all.
"kill."
"Kill all the enemy troops."
"kill……"
The soldiers on the city wall roared and fought fiercely with the Wei Wu soldiers who climbed up to the city wall.
The entire city wall was plunged into chaos.
"Great Qin soldiers."
"I will never retreat."
"Kill the enemy."
Wei Quan shouted loudly and rushed to the front line. With a wave of the sword in his hand, a Wei Wuzu in front of him was killed instantly. Wei Quan kicked out again, and the huge force killed the Wei Wuzu.
The entire Weicheng city tower was engaged in a deadly battle.
But the Qin soldiers defended the city wall to the death and did not retreat, nor were they defeated by the Wei soldiers.
"How exactly was this Qin army trained?"
"Can they compete with our Wei Wuzu?"
"Could it be that they are really a reorganization of the Qin army and the surrendered soldiers?"
"No, absolutely not."
After a day of fierce attack, it was almost nightfall, but they still hadn't taken the city wall. Wei Wuji was shocked.
He was well aware of the combat effectiveness of the Wei Wuzu.
The training method was completely inherited from Wu Qi's training method in the past. Wei Wuji knew the cruelty of the training. Every Wei Wuzu was an elite who could fight against several ordinary soldiers. But such an elite was actually blocked by an ordinary Qin army?
"Pass on my command."
"The army is attacking with all its might."
"We will never retreat until the city is conquered."
"We must take Weicheng in this battle." Wei Wuji shouted loudly.
"Your Majesty has given orders."
"The entire army must attack, and we must capture Weicheng in this battle." Many Wei generals shouted orders.
The Wei army's offensive became more fierce.
And at this moment.
In the territory of Wei State.
Go up to Weicheng.
This was also the most important supply city after Wei attacked Qin. All the food and supplies sent by Wei were temporarily stored in this city and then sent to Qin to Wei Wuji.
And at this moment.
Under the cover of night.
An army of less than a thousand people quietly approached Shangwei City.
But at this moment the city gate was closed.
When the Wei general on duty on the tower saw a large army under the city, he immediately shouted, "Stop."
"General, open the city gate immediately. I have urgent military information to report."
The "Wei general" under the city shouted loudly, his tone full of anxiety.
"The food and fodder transport teams have all returned, and I haven't received any orders for troop deployment. Where did you come from?" General Wei on the city wall asked in surprise.
"General."
"We were attacked by the Qin army."
The Wei general at the city gate said with a look of horror on his face.
"Qin army attacks?"
The general on the tower was startled: "Could it be that the Qin army has crossed the river?"
"The Qin army has crossed the river. I am Li Cheng, the captain on duty at the Weishui River. Nearly four thousand of my brothers were killed by the Qin army. I led the remaining brothers to break out of the siege and came here specifically to report the situation to the Qin army." The Wei general who called himself Li Cheng replied miserably.
"How could the Qin army cross the river?"
"Your Majesty has already arranged patrols along the Wei River. If the Qin army crosses the river, our army can attack them. There is absolutely no way they can cross the river." The Wei general on the city was extremely puzzled.
"It's Hongze Ferry."
The Wei general who called himself Li Cheng replied helplessly: "The Qin army crossed from Hongze. The garrison there was careless and was ambushed by the Qin army."
"Hongze Ferry?"
"That Hongze Ferry that is impossible to cross?" The general on the city wall was shocked.
"General, the Qin army has crossed the river and is now no more than ten miles away from our city. Please allow me and my comrades to enter the city to rest."
"We haven't had any food for a day." The Wei general who called himself Li Cheng said in a bitter tone.
And at this time.
The Wei general on the city wall did not suspect anything.
After all, this team of more than a thousand people was indeed a remnant of the army. It was impossible for them to capture Shangwei City where he had an army of 20,000 stationed.
"Open the gates."
General Wei said loudly.
The tightly closed Shangwei city gate slowly opened.
"Thank you, General."
The Wei general who called himself Li Cheng thanked him and then rode his horse towards the city.
And behind him.
There were flashes of murderous intent in the eyes of more than a thousand "Wei soldiers", and their looks also revealed indifference, but it was completely invisible in the darkness of the night.
It's obvious.
They are not Wei army at all.
Instead, Zhao Feng and his elite soldiers changed into Wei army clothes and disguised themselves as Wei army.
After entering the city, Zhao Feng was not in a hurry to take action, but prepared to wait until all the elite soldiers entered the city.
When more than a thousand elite soldiers entered the city.
The general on the city wall also came down.
"Li Cheng, right?"
"Tell me about the situation of the Qin army and how many troops do they have?" General Wei asked in a deep voice.
"It's a simple situation."
Zhao Feng showed a cold smile and raised the spear in his hand: "I am the commander of the troops, as for the Qin army, they are all."
"Brothers, kill them."
A loud shout.
The Overlord Spear swept out.
The Wei general in front of him didn't even have a chance to react before he was violently knocked away by the Overlord Spear and died instantly.
"Kill all the generals of Wei State and pick up 20 points of physical fitness." The panel prompts.
A sudden change.
The tens of thousands of generals defending the city were beheaded.
The surrounding Wei troops were all stunned. They didn't even know what was happening at first. The captain in front of them actually killed someone.
But the next moment.
"Follow the general and kill."
The "Wei troops" behind Zhao Feng roared, and then rushed towards the surrounding Wei troops. In the blink of an eye, most of the Wei troops at the city gate were killed.
Zhao Feng naturally rushed into the Wei army and killed them crazily.
With the power he possessed, no matter how strong the Wei army was, they could not defeat him with just one shot.
And solved the problem of Wei army at the city gate.
The soldiers under Zhao Feng did not stop, but quickly rushed to the top of the city wall and quickly killed the Wei army guarding it, while outside the city.
I heard shouting and killing from the city wall.
Suddenly.
There were waves of footsteps sounds.
Zhang Han led nine thousand soldiers and attacked towards Shangwei City.
They approached quickly and rushed into the city to kill.
"The soldiers of the Great Qin obey orders."
"Capture the entire city and kill all Wei troops without mercy."
"In this battle, I don't want any soldiers to surrender." Zhao Feng shouted in a mighty voice.
Now Zhao Feng is leading only 10,000 troops, and is advancing deep into the enemy's territory alone. If he leaves behind the surrendered soldiers, it would be a disaster for himself. After all, the Wei Kingdom still exists, unlike the surrendered soldiers of Han.
