Chapter 2107 Wei Qing’s Second Defeat of Tuoba Tao (Part 1)
Chapter 2105: Wei Qing’s second defeat by Tuoba Tao (Part 1)
Seeing that Yue Xi and other seven generals joined forces and not only failed to kill Nian Deli, but also defeated Han Zeng, Wei Qing had given up hope of killing Nian Deli.
Although Jintai's record is also strong, Wei Qing does not think that he can kill Nian Deli, and it is already good to remain undefeated.
I have to say that group combat skills like 'Wushuang' are so deceptive that even a savvy Wei Qing misjudged the strength of Jintai and Nian Deli.
As far as fighting alone, Nian Deli can never be Jintai's opponent, but after winning one versus seven, let alone Wei Qing, even Jintai himself doesn't think he can kill him. Sticky enough.
What Wei Qing wants now is not to kill Nian Deli, but to contain him and prevent him from affecting his ability to capture the third battalion. After all, if Nian Deli is not contained, it will be more difficult for the Qin army to capture the third battalion.
Tuoba Tao has learned the lesson from the second battalion. There is no room for Wei Qing to exploit in the layout of the third battalion. Therefore, attacking the third battalion will definitely be a **** battle, but even in a **** battle, there are still clever ways to fight it. .
Just imagine, if there is no one to restrain Gua Deli, even if the Qin army can attack the Qing camp, they will be quickly killed by Gua Deli, making it difficult to form a strong force.
So, the key to defeating the third battalion lies not in anything else, but in having someone who can compete with Nian Deli.
Early the next morning, Wei Qing summoned all the generals, and then led the siege team selected in advance to the third battalion to prepare for the attack.
Under the command of Wei Qing, catapult phalanx, crossbow formation, arrow tower formation, shield formation and other siege equipment were arranged in an orderly manner in front of the Qing camp, while the Qing army could only watch.
The Qin army's crossbow stone phalanx is facing the Qing camp. Once the Qing army breaks out from the camp, the Qin army will fire thousands of stones and thousands of arrows, and the Qing army will be difficult to resist.
In the Qing camp, Tuoba Tao, Duoduo, Wanyan Honglie and others were all silently observing Wei Qing's arrangements. Once Wei Qing showed a flaw, they would seize the opportunity. But unfortunately, Wei Qing was completely imperceptible and had no clue at all. flaw.
“There is no other choice but to hold on.”
Tuoba Tao shook his head and sighed. He knew Wei Qing would not make such a stupid mistake, but if he did, would it be Wei Qing's strategy to lure him into battle?
At the base of the camp, after half an hour of arranging troops, Wei Qing finally made all preparations, and all the Qin generals were gearing up. They only waited for Wei Qing's order to attack with the army, but Wei Qing did not want the generals to participate in the attack.
"General Wei Qing, why is this? If we join the attack together, the attack will be even more intense." Lin Chong asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Generals, there is no need to rush. When the generals are needed, Wei Qing will naturally not be polite." Wei Qing said with a smile.
The generals originally thought that Wei Qing was going to leave them aside. After all, they were here to support, so what's the point of watching the battle on the side, but after hearing this, they stopped talking.
Wei Qing stared at the third battalion in the distance, slowly pulled out the sword at his waist, and shouted: "Attack."
"kill…"
The siege team composed of two thousand sword and shield men marched directly towards the camp. At the same time, there were also crossbows, arrows and flying rocks to cover the attack.
On the Qing side, Tuoba Tao saw that Wei Qing was attacking, so he commanded the defense not to be outdone.
For a time, a large number of arrows, stones, and rolling logs were continuously projected down from the mountain.
Wei Qing saw this and waved the flag decisively. When the trumpeters saw this, they immediately blew their trombones vigorously and roared, in order to direct the attacking soldiers to change their forms.
The soldiers who had just gathered together immediately dispersed in groups of ten after hearing the horn sound from the rear, and avoided the impact of most of the rocks and rolling logs.
“Quickly, use a shield wall to block arrows and use sandbags to create cover.”
A chief shouted, and then the soldiers carrying sandbags behind him threw the sandbags in front of the shield man, and used the sandbags to pile up a wall to serve as a bunker to withstand the attacks from the mountain. Stones, rolling wood and arrows were thrown down.
Even with Wei Qing's command, nearly a quarter of the soldiers fell on the charge, but their sacrifices also replaced dozens of sand walls for the Qin army.
By using these sand walls as shelters, the threat of top-down attacks by the Qing army will be greatly reduced. By the end of the battle, more than half of the two thousand siege troops had suffered casualties. The Qin army had suffered a thousand casualties, and the remaining people were extremely exhausted.
Upon seeing this, Wei Qing decisively replaced the first team, put the second team on top, and continued the attack. Finally, more than 150 sand walls were built in the end.
These more than 150 sand walls are scattered on the mountain road, and each one is like an offensive ladder.
A large number of Qin soldiers hid behind the sand wall to avoid the Qing offensive. At the same time, they were also waiting for Wei Qing's order to give the Qing army a thunderous blow.
"Adjust the crossbowmen to move forward and use crossbow arrows to suppress the Qing army's firepower."
Wei Qing said with an indifferent expression, his eyes calm, as if everything was within his expectation.
Wei Qing used sand wall tactics to continuously shorten the distance from the Qing camp. Unknowingly, with the range of the Qin army's crossbows, if he stayed at the sand wall at the front, he could already shoot crossbow arrows into the Qing camp.
The main reason why the catapults were not moved forward was that the targets of the catapults were too large and could easily be concentrated by the Qing army.
On the side of the Qing camp, Tuoba Tao saw that the Qin army's crossbowmen could already shoot crossbow arrows into the camp, and he couldn't help but said seriously: "Wei Qing is really good at attacking fortifications. He has shortened the distance between the enemy and us with just a few sandbags, but with this Just trying to win is impossible.
Give the order and fire oil bombs. "
.
After Tuoba Tao gave the order, dozens of catapults from the Qing army also opened fire, projecting nearly a hundred jars of fire oil at the sand wall closest to the Qing camp.
The Qing army's fire oil bombs were far inferior to the Qin army in terms of burning temperature and burning time, but under the raging fire, the mortal bodies were the same.
"ah…"
The soldiers' wails sounded, a large number of Qin soldiers were burned to death, and the entire battlefield was filled with wails.
The generals couldn't bear to look at such a miserable scene, but Wei Qing didn't even blink an eyelid. Instead, he calmly asked the crossbowmen of the first echelon to withdraw to the second echelon, and he would replace them when the flames of the first echelon were extinguished.
After a stick of incense, the flames of the first echelon were completely extinguished. Wei Qing commanded the crossbowmen to enter the first echelon again and suppressed the Qin camp's crossbow arrows. After a while, the Qing army dropped a large number of kerosene bombs, while Wei Qing commanded the soldiers to fire again. withdraw.
After repeating the attack several times, the Qin soldiers, who were accustomed to the Qing army's fighting style, were able to predict the Qing army's attack. They would immediately run away as soon as the kerosene bombs came, and then replenish the fire once it was out.
The Qin army attacked like this for three full days, during which they did not even attack the Qing camp once. They mainly used the Qing army's kerosene bombs and crossbow arrows to gradually weaken the Qing army.
Three days later, the Qing army's fire oil bombs finally ran out, and Wei Qing finally launched a thunderous blow.
Seeing that the Qing army's casualties were gradually increasing under the suppression of the Qin army's crossbowmen, but still no kerosene bombs were fired, Wei Qing immediately understood that the Qing army's kerosene bombs had been exhausted, and smiled: "The time has come to break the camp, where are the generals?" ?”
“The end is here.” Jintai and other generals shouted in unison.
“You will attack with an army of 10,000 people. We will not stop until we break the Qing camp.” Wei Qing shouted.
“I will not stop fighting until I break the Qing camp.”
All the generals shouted in unison, and then ten thousand troops shouted, and the roar resounded through the sky.
