276 Reinforcements enter the city

"Order the troops to rest in hiding and launch an attack after nightfall."

It was only the last step away from Gaocheng, but Li Ling ordered the troops to stop because Gaocheng was being besieged and besieged from all sides at this moment!

Obviously, the Chu army did not know that the Han army had run away, and they were ravaging the stormy Gaocheng without any scruples.

Xiang Yan's method of attacking Gaocheng was very simple, which was a rough siege. Moreover, he had discovered that Gaocheng's defense was empty, so he had no focus at all. He arranged 50,000 troops on all sides, and attacked one after another day and night.

He planned to kill all the Qin army in Gaocheng alive. Anyway, he was not in a hurry. In his opinion, the main force of the Qin army was fighting against the Huns in the north, and even if he came back, it would not be too fast. Moreover, there were 100,000 Han troops in front of him. He could do his best to make trouble in Gaocheng with confidence and boldness, so he could attract all the remaining small number of troops in the Hangu Pass of Qin State to rush over and gather and annihilate them at that time.

But Xiang Yan never thought that Han Jun had already run away at noon today and ran away without giving him any notice in advance!

"Are you crazy? Don't you stop attacking at this time?"

The sunset was setting. Li Ling, who was hiding in the distance, looked at the direction of Gaocheng, but found that the Chu army was still sieging the city in batches, without any intention of stopping, and Gaocheng seemed to have not been able to contain it for too long.

"No more waiting, order the troops to be prepared!"

Originally, Li Ling planned to lead the army out after nightfall, and catch the Chu army off guard when the Chu army stopped siege and started to rest. At the same time, Xiong Qi could open the city gate and let him enter the city with confidence.

But the current situation forced Li Ling to take action in advance.

"Open fire!"

Tattata~~~

Two heavy machine guns exploded instantly after Li Ling's order, forming a cross-fire network to directly cover the Chu army's camp on the north side of Gaocheng.

"Wu'an Jun! It must be Wu'an Jun! Hurry up, go and tell the commander that the boss is here, the boss is here with reinforcements!"

The sky was not completely dark, but the light dragged out by the tracer bullet was already very obvious. A large number of Chu troops, who were in a state of rest, were harvested wildly by ruthless firepower.

The defenders standing on the top of the city had not seen reinforcements appear, but they knew that Li Ling had definitely arrived. The two heavy machine guns that kept spitting fire snakes to harvest Chu's life were evidence!

Many new recruits had never seen guns, but when they heard someone calling Wu'anjun coming, their morale was greatly boosted, and they burst out with unprecedented potential, and devoted themselves to the death battle with the Chu army.

"Haha, soldiers, the boss has arrived, kill me!"

Xiong Qi, who was already determined to find an opportunity to break through, saw the two heavy machine guns, and his eyes radiated again. Reinforcements, the reinforcements finally arrived, and they were reinforcements with machine guns!

While commanding the troops, he walked directly above the city gate. He had to observe the situation on the battlefield at any time so that the soldiers in the city gate could open the city gate in time to welcome reinforcements into the city.

After a long time of gunfire, reinforcements finally appeared in Xiong Qi's sight and drove directly into the Chu army camp that had been completely in chaos.

Until this moment, the Chu soldiers who were sieging the city finally realized the arrival of Qin reinforcements. The momentum of the siege weakened instantly. They were about to attack the city, but because of this incident, they were killed and retreated again.

"Captain, should we fight out?"

"No, wait in the city for me. You are not allowed to leave the city. You cannot open the city gate without my order."

Xiong Qi did not dare to take risks. After these days of hard battle, the remaining soldiers in his hands were less than 10,000, and he could not take a single risk. Once the Chu army took the opportunity to forcibly rush to the city, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"The machine gun is withdrawn and ready to enter the city."

Seeing that the cavalry had entered the Chu army's formation and fought together, Li Ling decisively ordered the two heavy machine guns to be put away, and it was time to prepare to enter the city.

"Crash with me! Enter the city!"

After all the two heavy machine guns were put away and gathered together, Li Ling drew out his saber and rushed straight to the city gate with the remaining 100 people around him.

Although the Qin army had an absolute advantage outside the city at this moment, Li Ling knew that he would stop when he saw it. He could not drag outside the city for too long. Once the Chu army on the other three sides of Gaocheng arrived, it would not be so easy to enter the city.

"Quick, open the city gate!"

He discovered that the team led by Li Ling personally cut open the battlefield and headed straight to the city gate. Xiong Qi ordered the city gate to be opened without saying a word. He hurriedly ran down the city wall. He wanted to tell Li Ling about the situation in the city as soon as possible.

"The last general Xiong Qi will meet Wu'anjun!"

"Quick, place the machine gun at two corners of the city wall to block the Chu army's reinforcements."

After glanced at Xiong Qi, Li Ling quickly arranged the arrangements. He didn't have so much time to say anything else now. He had to arrange the defensive work first so that all the troops outside could enter the city.

A heavy machine gun stuck in the city wall not only meant that it blocked reinforcements from other directions of the Chu army, but also meant that it blocked the retreat of the Chu army outside the northern city wall.

There were heavy machine guns in front, and the Qin army waving sabers behind them. Soon, the desperate Chu army either chose to surrender or fled in scattered ways. The war outside the northern city wall finally came to an end.

"Xiong Qi."

"The last one will be there."

After ordering the troops to escort the prisoners into the city, Li Ling finally remembered Xiong Qi.

"These prisoners are all from Chu, and you have a very unusual relationship with the King of Chu. I will give these people to you. The result I hope is that these Chu people will be used by me in the end. Do you understand?"

"promise."

Xiong Qi agreed very readily, so reassuring that Li Ling could hardly believe it.

"Aren't you afraid that these people will not listen to you?"

"Not afraid, there are some methods, and as long as the State of Chu knows that they are not dead, their families will not be in danger. Without any worries, they should not be disgusted with emotion and reason."

"That's good. You have to do this for me! In the future, the Qin Dynasty will unify the world, and there will be more and more prisoners of war. This is a major project. I hope that the transformation of these people can be left to you to take charge of."

"Thank you for your trust, I will definitely live up to my trust."

"Very good, let's go and take me to see the overall city defense situation."

With the end of the battle in the North City Wall, the battle on the other three walls also came to an end, and the Chu army had stopped siege.

......

"It's outrageous, this is betrayal! This is betrayal!"

The news of the Han army's escape without saying a word and the news of the Qi army's open rebellion, coupled with the news of Qin reinforcements entering the city, were sent to Xiang Yan almost at the same time. Xiang Yan had no other way except to roar helplessly.

Everything was originally going according to his plan, but he didn't expect the result to be like this!
