"The crossbowmen continue to release their arrows, and the thunderstone is in place!"

Following Gan Mao's order, some of the Qin Army generals who were armed with soldiers on Hangu Pass immediately put down their weapons.

He squatted down and picked up the heavy logs and the stones of not light quality. When the coalition forces approached Hangu Pass, the coalition forces would suffer a bitterness and inflict huge casualties on the coalition forces.

Finally, tens of thousands of coalition forces have densely advanced under Hangu Pass.

However, as the coalition forces got closer and closer, the range of the Qin army's bows and crossbows also moved farther and farther, so that they could shoot the coalition forces behind the shield phalanx at any time, and the coalition forces could lose more than a thousand at a time.

"The army opens, and the crossbowmen release arrows!"

With an order from the coalition general Ni Liang, the defensive formation of a shield like an iron wall suddenly opened.

After the shield phalanx, countless allied crossbowmen emerged among them, directly raising their hands and shooting at the Qin army above Hangu Pass.

Suddenly, some Qin troops were shot by the coalition crossbows before they reacted.

Some were killed directly, while others were planted under the wall of Hangu Pass, which was several tens of meters high, and there was no sound.

"Where is the ladder?"

"Come here, put the ladder up for Lao Tzu!"

The coalition general Ni Liang took the lead and roared in front of the coalition army. Many coalition officers awakened from their dreams and hurriedly carried the ladder from the rear.

Specially made for the attack on Hangu Pass, the ladder with a height of several tens of feet was directly erected by allied soldiers.

After that, the huge cloud ladder slammed firmly on the wall of Hangu Pass like a stormy wave hitting the shore.

The ladder stood above Hangu Pass, and many coalition soldiers climbed up the ladder, trying to attack Hangu Pass.

"Throw!"

Seeing that the situation is critical, Gan Mao gave another order. Thousands of Qin generals directly threw the logs and thunderstones in their arms at the dense coalition forces below and the coalition forces who were climbing to the wall of Hangu Pass through the ladder. Soldier.

"Ah..."

Allied soldiers who were hit by logs and stones screamed and died.

But the densely packed number of coalition soldiers rushed towards Hangu Pass like a tide, as if they were endlessly killed!

When some of the more fortunate coalition soldiers were about to climb the Hangu Pass, they were suddenly pierced directly by the Qin Army generals who were holding long Ge.

In this way, the coalition forces fell into a dilemma in this embarrassing situation.

In the past, it seemed impossible to reach Hangu Pass under the terrible marching crossbow, but the army still advanced under Hangu Pass.

Obviously watching that some soldiers were about to board Hangu Pass, they were immediately beheaded by the Qin army, as if even the gods were helping the people of Qin.

As for the crossbowmen of the Qin Army, the crossbowmen of the Allied Forces under the Hangu Pass were caught in a confrontational shooting situation.

Crossbowmen of the two armies aimed at each other, and their own crossbowmen were constantly shot and killed by their opponents.

It can be called a sniper battle without gunpowder, and some are just the slight trembling sound of the bowstring when the crossbow shoots.

In this way, the Qin army and the coalition forces fell into a stalemate with each other.

The two armies can do nothing about the other, they can only wring each other's flesh and blood on the battlefield.

"Asshole, what do you all do for food?"

How could Ni Liang look at such a stale battle situation, and Ni Liang roared in a rage.

Immediately, Ni Liang ignored the dissuasion of many soldiers and took a buckler and climbed the ladder towards Hangu Pass.

I have to say that Ni Liang is definitely a famous general in the world, he is quite strategic and also brave and good at fighting.

In the face of this kind of battle, Ni Liang didn't even bring a little frustration, just assault directly.

"Cover the general!"

Watching the generals who took the lead ascending the ladder to attack the city in person, many coalition soldiers were not only encouraged, but also worried.

Directly let the crossbowmen increase their attacks and cover Ni Liang who is climbing up the ladder.

A soldier of the Qin Army had quick eyes and quick hands, and he could see the difference between the allied soldiers on the ladder at a glance.

I saw that the Qin army general picked up the largest stone and threw it at the person above the ladder.

"bump!"

The loud sound of the stone hitting the shield sounded, and Ni Liang directly fell from the cloud ladder under the impact of the huge inertia.

It's just that the coalition soldiers below had quick eyesight and quick hands. When Ni Liang was about to fall to the ground, he caught Ni Liang, and Ni Liang was not worried.

"Pass... send the army to retreat!"

Ni Liang, who was dragged by several soldiers, said weakly.

Now that the battle is stalemate, Ni Liang also understands now.

Wang Lu deserves to be a general of the Qin army who can be specially sent by the State of Qin to station at Hangu Pass, and the generals of the Qin army stationed at Hangu Pass are really strong.

Coupled with the powerful crossbow offensive of the Qin army and the fruitless offensive of the own army and the waste of the lives of the soldiers, Ni Liang finally issued the order to make the army temporarily retreat.

"Yes, beat the drums and retreat!"

The sound of the beating of war drums sounded, but this time the coalition war drums were beating not an offensive signal, but a signal for retreat.

Hearing the sound of war drums representing the retreat, the coalition forces under Hangu Pass retreated one after another, leaving only corpses all over the ground, about three or four thousand in size.

Seeing the coalition forces retreating like a tide, the generals of the Qin army, such as Wang Lu and Gan Mao, did not show any expressions of relief, but looked solemn.

"In the battle this morning, my Qin army suffered thousands of casualties!"

Wang Lu was most worried, because Wang Lu knew clearly that this was only a tentative attack by the coalition forces.

The second offensive of the coalition forces may be even more stormy, making it hard to resist.

But at the same time, Wang Xun breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, thinking: "Fortunately, the main force of my Qin army has not been dispatched, and the two assassins prepared by this general for the coalition have not yet been used."

"If the situation in the future continues as it is today, this general is sure to stick to Hangu Pass for more than half a month."

Wang Lu thought in his heart that it was indeed the case.

The special terrain of Hangu Pass caused the enemy to attack Hangu Pass to deploy at most 50,000 troops at a time.

However, it was also decided that there were only five or six thousand Qin troops who existed on the wall of Hangu Pass.

In other words, after Hangu Pass, there are more than 90,000 Qin troops waiting to go into battle, so Wang Lu has the confidence to hold on to Hangu Pass for more than half a month.

It's just that what's about to happen is far beyond Wang Lu's expectations, and the development of the facts is not always satisfactory.

Unexpectedly, in the face of many unexpected surprises, people who think they are sure to conquer the sky are after all just ants struggling to survive under the teasing of fate.

"Two generals, the Qin army has already shown fatigue, I think we should use the wheel tactics later."

From the rear of the coalition army, he led Tuo to look at Ni Liang and Wang Liao and said.

The three of them all glanced at each other, their eyes flashed with light that they all understood, and they said in unison: "Agree!"
