Chapter 970 Cao Shen Rebels!

On the city wall, the soldiers from the Western Regions who had reacted also gathered around at this time.

But just by meeting each other, the person who was killed fell on his back.

Although those who rushed forward were civilians, they were mostly herdsmen with relatively fierce temperaments. Although their collective fighting power was not as good as that of the Qin army, they were extremely powerful in individual fights.

They followed the order and headed towards the city gate!

"Get on top! Get on top of everyone!"

Zhang Liang was issuing orders with red eyes. Their situation was not optimistic. Except for the men led by Fan Kuai, the other slave armies were no match for these people.

There is a huge gap between the two sides in terms of morale and combat power.

If it weren't for the large number of people surrounding these people, I'm afraid they would have been broken through!

Zhang Liang also saw the purpose of these people at this time. If these people really opened the city gate and those people from outside the city rushed in, they might not even be able to withstand these five thousand people!

Not to mention, the Qin army's camp is only twenty miles away, and the cavalry will arrive in an instant!

Thinking of this, Zhang Liang's face couldn't help but turn a little pale.

He still underestimated the combat power of the Qin army that was sweeping the world!

He also overestimated the slave army he brought with him.

These people cannot be called an army at all, but how could the slave army of the Qin Army be so brave and not afraid of death! ?

On the fierce battlefield, Zhang Liang actually fell into a trance.

But at this time, the battle became more and more intense!

A prairie centurion roared angrily at this time,

"Warriors of the grassland!"

"The gods are watching us! The little wolves are watching us too!"

"Come to the city and open the gate!"

Qin Jun, the grassland people around him, also roared angrily,

"Open the city gate! Open the city gate!"

Everyone rushed towards the city to kill!

It actually has a sense of being unstoppable!

After all, no matter how many slave soldiers there are, the city wall is only so big.

In front of the same number of people, these people are no match for the Qin army!

Seeing these people forcing the slave army to retreat, Zhang Liang finally came to his senses at this time.

Looking at the unstoppable Qin army, a cold light appeared in his eyes, and then he said coldly,

"Have people use oil to block the access to the lower city."

The deputy general next to him was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but said,

"Noble sir, but our people..."

"Shut up!"

Zhang Liang said fiercely at this time, he must not be defeated!

These are necessary sacrifices!

If the Qin army really captured the city, how many of these people would survive?

Then he said,

"Go and ask General Fan to withdraw!"

Fan Kuai's identity is still different, and he cannot be allowed to die here.

The deputy general on the side could only take the order and leave.

Soon, someone brought oil and dumped it on the road leading to the city.

The pungent smell made many slave soldiers alert, but when they saw that it was their own people who arranged these things behind them, they suddenly panicked.

"What are you doing! Why are you pouring oil here!"

But the others didn't reply and just kept silent.

Now everyone was panicking,

In front is the fierce Qin army, and behind is our own people pouring oil.

The originally low morale collapsed completely, and the slave soldiers began to give up resistance and wanted to escape towards the rear.

But there was already a supervising team waiting, so these slave soldiers were blocked in the middle and killed!

At this time, Zhang Liang saw Fan Kuai walking towards him angrily, so he ordered with a cold expression,

"ignition!"

Vice-general, with the order, a fire suddenly rose!

Then it covered up the slave army and Qin army who were still fighting each other on the city wall!

This time, both sides wailed and died in the fire regardless of each other!

"Zhang Liang! What are you doing!"

Fan Kuai walked up to Zhang Liang at this time and asked sternly,

"Our people are still inside! How do you explain to brother!"

He didn't even think of it,

Zhang Liang actually burned his own people together!

His eldest brother Liu Bang is also very popular with the people.

Zhang Liang said coldly at this time,

"If we can't stop the Qin army, we will all die!"

"Even if Pei Gong is here, he will agree with what I am doing!"

"In a war, no one will die?!"

In a rare moment, Zhang Liang was scolded, and Fan Kuai was also speechless. The other party didn't scold him by name, which was already good.

He could only turn around and leave angrily.

At this time, the fire on the city wall was getting bigger and bigger!

Under the city wall, Zhou Bo and Li Shang looked at the fire on the city wall with extremely complicated expressions.

"General, how dare they set a fire! Their own people are also inside!"

Li Shang said with a bit of disbelief at this time.

Of course they thought that the other party had oil in their hands, so they asked these Qin troops to go up and fight the other party.

If the two sides mix together, oil will not be used.

But Wanwan didn’t expect that,

The other party actually burned his own people too!

Zhou Bo said with a solemn expression at this time,

"Zhang Liang is a person who should not be underestimated!"

The combat effectiveness of these slave armies is extremely poor. Logically speaking, they cannot be the opponents of the Qin army.

But I didn't expect that Zhang Liang's thoughts would be so cruel!

He is worthy of being a ruthless man who assassinated His Majesty twice!

Of course, the other party also used this to give him a message. If they really attacked, the other party would use the oil and die with them!

Even if all the Qin troops are here now, I'm afraid they will have to pay a huge price!

Li Shang looked at the city wall that turned into a sea of ​​fire and couldn't help but ask,

"General, what should we do now?"

Zhou Bo took a slow breath and then said

"Retreat and send another letter to the other party asking for the bodies of our soldiers."

Even if it is just ashes, they have to take them back and bury them on their own land.

This is the rule of Da Qin.

If you can't come back or can't find it, there are other ways.

Just turn that land into Da Qin's.

As for the offense, there is no need to think too much.

They have been containing each other for nearly ten days. General Han Xin and the others should have arrived in the hinterland of the Western Regions long ago, and news should come in a few days.

Li Shang immediately took the order.

Soon, the Qin army retreated to their camp.

Just seeing this scene, no one cheered, and all the slave soldiers felt only sadness.

Da Qin was their enemy, but so were these nobles?

Winning or losing actually doesn't mean much to them.

Only Zhang Liang breathed a sigh of relief at this time. He was certain that as long as the Qin army's general was not crazy, he would not be attacked like this!

This time, although they lost more than 3,000 slave troops, they were able to eliminate a thousand-man team of the Qin army.

This is so profitable!

After all, slave armies are available everywhere, but the elite Qin army is different! He also received news that the Qin army asked for the body.

It doesn't matter to him, he just wants to give it to the other party.

Time passed by, and a few days later Zhang Liang was watching the Qin army's camp on the city wall.

The current stalemate is beneficial to them. He has actually won this battle!

They had a little more time.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but smile,

A messenger suddenly ran up in a hurry and reported tremblingly,

"General! Cao Shen has rebelled. The Qin army has raided our rear and all supplies have been looted!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Liang's face suddenly turned pale at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then he fell straight back!
