Chapter 190: Attack and Defense of Xinzheng

Xinzheng City, within the palace.

At this time, the usual government hall was densely packed with hundreds of people. These are the usual ministers of South Korea, who are in charge of all parts of South Korea.

Each of them is like a screw, nailing tightly to all parts of South Korea, maintaining the dilapidated and crumbling machine of South Korea to continue to run.

"What should I do? What should I do? What should I do in South Korea when I face Qin's 200,000 troops?" In the hall, King Han left his throne at this moment, walking around, turning around from time to time. He turned his head, looked at his minister, and asked.

"Your Majesty, calm down. The envoys for help have already been dispatched. They have already rushed to the surrounding countries for 800 miles. They have also specially sent someone to notify the joint leader Yuguo of this joint alliance. Presumably, the reinforcements will come soon!" Hearing King Han's questioning and the deep fear, the prime minister opened his mouth to comfort him.

"Then do the countries reply? When will the reinforcements arrive?" Hearing what his prime minister said, King Han asked quickly.

"Here, in the state of Wei next to our country, the king of Wei said that the Qin army also sent troops to threaten the state of Wei. , I have to wait another month or two for him. And Yanzhao in the north is blocked by the state of Qin in the middle of South Korea, so it is difficult to support." When asked by King Han, he choked openly, and then said bravely.

"That means there are no reinforcements? You have been talking nonsense to the lonely king for so long?" Hearing his prime minister's words, King Han was in despair, and then looked at Zhang Kaidi with cold eyes.

"That's not the case, Your Majesty, our Hezong Commander, that is, the Yuguo in the north, has received our messenger and understood the current situation in South Korea. At this time, Prince Jing, whom we met before, is leading 200,000 cavalry. He is heading south in the starry night. According to him, in about ten days, he will reach the border between Zhao and Qin, and then he will lead an army to break through and go to South Korea for support!" Seeing his own king, he was very dissatisfied with himself because of his words , explained quickly with an open voice.

"200,000 cavalry? How long will it take for him to come to support!" Han Wang was overjoyed when he heard the number of reinforcements, but then he thought of the distance between Yuguo and Qin, and he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

"Your Majesty, there is only one East County between South Korea and Zhao, which is not far away. And the defenders of the East County are only 50,000 people. Although it is a lot, it is not many. The 200,000 cavalry of the Yu Kingdom , Although it may be difficult and time-consuming to win Dongjun, but if you just borrow the way from Dongjun and break through the blockade to South Korea, at the speed of cavalry, you can come here in four or five days!" Hearing my own king Frustrated, as South Korea's highest military commander, General Ji Wuye also expressed his views.

"Oh, so according to the general, it will take about half a month for the reinforcements from the Imperial Kingdom to come to South Korea?" Encouraged by Ji Wuye's words, King Han quickly looked at Ji Wuye in surprise.

"That's right, if there is no major change, half a month, or a few more days? Reinforcements can come to South Korea's Xinzheng City!" Nodding heavily, Ji Wuye said affirmatively.

"Then general, can I guard him in Xinzheng City for half a month, or longer?" Han Wang looked expectantly at Ji Wuye. He is the commander in chief of the army, and he must be very clear about these things. .

"Half a month, after these three days of defensive battles in Xinzheng City, I have already lost more than 20,000 of his soldiers, and only 80,000 of the soldiers in the city can fight." Ji Wuye said something that made King Han feel that Desperate numbers.

"20,000 people died in three days, so according to the general, the remaining 80,000 people can only guard for twelve days, less than half a month!" After shouting, I felt a chill in my heart, The dignified Korean soldiers, occupying the defensive power of the city wall, were beaten back by the enemy. 100,000 people could not even hold on to a great city for half a month.

"Could it be that I, Korea, is already so weak!" This was the only thought in King Han's mind at this time.

"That's not how it is calculated, my lord. In the first three days, the morale of the Qin army was at its peak. They were desperate to fight, and they were extremely sharp. Naturally, the results were excellent! But after the first three days, the Qin army's soldiers felt that there was something in their hearts. If you are discouraged, the brutality of the war will naturally not compare to before, and the casualties can be greatly reduced!" Seeing that his king seemed to be frightened by him, a smile rose in Ji Wuye's heart. Only in this way, first Only by suppressing and raising, Han Wang will understand his own importance, and his position in South Korea will become more stable.

"What does the general mean? Can I defend Korea for half a month or even longer?" In the desperate situation, he suddenly heard a straw, and King Han naturally grasped it tightly.

"That's natural. Yichen estimates that the Qin army's offensive will definitely slow down in the past few days, and it will not be as violent as before. And the daily casualties of the soldiers in the city are very likely to drop to two or three thousand. Such a few people, It is completely within the tolerance range of my South Korea, enough to support the arrival of reinforcements!" Ji Wuye nodded and said proudly.

"That's good, that's good. It's a great thing for Korea to keep the country and the ancestral temple!" Han Wang nodded quickly and said with a look of joy.

In this way, a court meeting ended after several ups and downs.

And King Han, and even the court officials, also strengthened their determination to resist a little during this discussion, and some people who had some small thoughts in their hearts also decided to wait and see before making plans.

Outside the city, the Qin army's offensive was still fierce, but it was not as violent as the previous three days, and it slowed down.

People are lazy, and they also pay attention to a passion when doing things. In the first three days, the soldiers of the Qin Army, encouraged by their officers, pumped up the blood in their hearts, and fought desperately without fear of death.

But three days later, they discovered that South Korea still held the Xinzheng City despite their fierce attack.

And it doesn't seem to be crumbling, the defense is still stable, and the defenders on the top of the city have not decreased. This naturally dealt a severe blow to Qin Jun's enthusiasm and made them doubt themselves.

What they doubted was naturally not whether they could capture Xinzheng City, but how long it would take them, and whether they could capture it in a short time.

With doubts, there will naturally be hesitation. When fighting, you will also start to be afraid of death. After going to the battlefield, you will naturally not work as hard as you did at the beginning.

After all, even though Qin State pays attention to farming and warfare, all status and wealth are related to military exploits.

But all of that must be fought for by oneself after all, and all enjoyment can only be obtained by living alone.

After he died, even if his family could get some good treatment, it had absolutely nothing to do with him.

human nature!
