The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire - Chapter 259
[Chapter 256 The Southern Front War]
All the way down, each city has gathered some enough defensive forces, and stationed the defense line in some dangerous places, like nails, nailed to the various places where Chu country must pass.
If the State of Chu ignores them and advances all the way, then they will harass the logistics of the State of Chu, and follow them, causing some harassment from time to time.
However, if you want to crush it all the way, although these cities are not majestic, there are still some basic city defenses, and some dangerous places occupy the geographical advantages, which are also extremely difficult to attack.
All the way down, the Chu army had to pay a very heavy price to advance so many miles and ten miles.
After all the way down, after beating him for nearly two months, the Chu army had only advanced a hundred miles on the front line.
This kind of extremely low efficiency, not to mention that the Three Kingdoms Allied Forces who are waiting for the support of the State of Chu cannot wait, even the State of Chu feels extremely embarrassed.
As for the Qin army on the opposite side, they were secretly laughing at the incompetence of the Chu State.
In order to change the form of the battlefield, Xiang Yan made an extremely risky decision. He did not care about the cities along the way, he rushed forward, and did not care about logistics. He only brought food for more than ten days.
Abandoning many trivialities, Chu State’s marching rate really increased rapidly, and in a few days, the front line was advanced by more than 100 miles.
At this time, the position of the Chu army had moved to the foot of Nanliang City in the south of South Korea.
This once important southern town in South Korea has now fallen into the hands of Qin due to Nei Shi Teng’s betrayal, and has become an important pass for blocking his reinforcements from the north of Chu.
In the north of Nanliang City, 1oo miles ahead, is the famous Yique Pass.
It was here that Bai Qi rose up. He killed hundreds of thousands of South Korean troops in one battle, and his qualifications successfully appeared before the desk of the then King Qin, thus embarking on his journey to the military god.
But now that Chu State has not even won the Nanlian City, how can it reach Yique?
Although the Chu army advanced quickly and quickly reached Nanliang City, the hidden dangers he left behind were also extremely great.
On the land 100 miles south of it, dozens of nails buried by the Qin army were left, forming a tight blockade network, which forcibly blocked the aid from the southern part of the Chu country in that 100 miles away. Above life and death.
As for the Chu country, after a series of previous attacks, his losses were also extremely heavy. In the situation of 300,000 elites, 50,000 people have been injured, leaving only 250,000 exhausted troops.
Opposite them, in the majestic Nanliang City, was stationed an army of 100,000 troops that the Qin State was waiting for.
They will stick to this majestic city, just like South Korea not long ago. Relying on a strong city, they forcibly dragged the Qin army of 200,000 to death.
Here, the 100,000 Qin army will also drag the 250,000 army of Chu State to death and lead them into the endless abyss.
Qin State had no confidence in whether they could defend the city, but they had sufficient confidence in whether they could drag down Chu State.
Just like the previous battle of Xinzheng, with enough supplies in South Korea, the morale of 100,000 people was low, and soldiers who were afraid of Qin Ruhu could stick to Xinzheng City for more than a month.
So now the soldiers of the Qin State who have high morale and come with the determination to die, although they are all old and weak, their physical strength is far less than those of the young and strong, but they have the belief that they are not afraid of life and death.
With this belief, it may be impossible to defend the city, but it is absolutely possible to drag the opposite Chu Jun to die together.
After all, it was the bloody fighting of the Qin people, the bellicose factor inherited from their ancestors, that influenced them.
Especially after the reform of Shang Yang, the farming and warfare system thoroughly penetrated into the hearts of every old Qin person in Qin, and completely released the rage in their bodies.
Moreover, after over a hundred years of war, the Qin State has been pressing the Six Nations to fight, and the confidence, honor, and contempt for the Six Nations in Shandong built up are rooted in the hearts of every soldier in the Qin State. of.
Therefore, although the number of Qin troops in the city is less than half of the opposite, and the young and strong are scarce, they are almost non-existent.
The only thing that can be praised is that the equipment is slightly better than that of the Chu army, and it takes advantage of the defense of the city.
But their will to fight is absolutely peaceful, and their contempt for the southern Chu army still exists in their hearts.
In their opinion, today’s Qin state is just a momentary ignorance, and it is taken advantage of by these weak and weak people. As long as Qin state relaxes, then all of them are idiots, and they won’t last long.
And what they need to do now is to use their humble lives to gain some time for Qin to breathe, and at the same time pull these enemies and go to see the King of Hell with them.
…
Xiang Yan looked at the majestic city in front of him, frowning tightly, lingering worries condensed in his mind, constantly consuming his already tired spirit.

“This Qin army is really fearless!” After staring for a long time, Xiang Yan let out a sigh of relief.
Qin State is worthy of being called a country of tigers and wolves. In the face of such a disadvantage, the soldiers still have such a high will to fight. Compared with the State of Chu, it is really much stronger.
Even in Xiang Yan’s heart, he couldn’t help but sigh, no wonder Chu State lost consecutive battles in Qin State’s confrontation, and even the State lost several times.
“However, it is precisely because of this that I have to hit Qin State hard. Taking advantage of this time when Qin State is tired and weak, I will severely weaken it, and even try to destroy him, so that I can win for Chu State. A silver lining!” Xiang Yan’s face showed a ruthless expression, looking at the energetic Qin Jun in the distance, although each one’s faces were extremely green or wrinkled, they were full of firmness, and Xiang Yan clenched the long sword in his hand. , a burst of murderous intent spread out.
Turning around, Xiang Yan ordered the messenger beside him, “Attack!”
The thunder-like drums were beating, the thumping sounds were incessant, and with a sense of rhythm, the soldiers of the Chu army approached Nanliang City step by step.
At the same time, the siege equipment behind him also pushed forward, constantly adjusting the direction, and finally all pointed to Nanliang City.
The situation in the sky changes, and even the heaven and the earth have become discolored due to the crushing of the army.
The boundless Chu army greeted them. In front of them, the majestic Nanliang City seemed to be insignificant, like a reef on the sea that could be submerged at any time. The only difference was how long this reef could last!
There was not much time left for the Chu army. This time, in order to get here quickly, the logistics of Yiying, which was abandoned by the Chu country, only brought food for more than ten days.
Therefore, Chu State’s action rate must be accelerated.
