Chapter 67 This is a dead end!
"Clang! Clang! Clang..."

A large number of combat boots inlaid with iron plates stepped heavily and quickly on the masonry ground, making a rapid impact sound.

The soldiers guarding the city turned around subconsciously and saw more than [-] well-armored elite soldiers approaching quickly.

The armor and weapons of these soldiers are obviously better than those of ordinary soldiers.

The looks of these soldiers are even somewhat similar!
The soldiers couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Is this the Zhang family's soldiers?"

Another soldier shook his head: "I'm afraid he's a member of the Zhang family!"

The soldiers clicked their tongues: "The Zhang family has spent a lot of money!"

After arriving at the city gate, Zhang Rang held up the tiger talisman and shouted in a deep voice:
"I am Zhang Rang, the Right Prime Minister of Korea. I have been ordered by the king to temporarily take charge of Xinzheng City Defense."

"Close the gate!"

When the soldiers heard this, they quickly pushed up the city gate.

Han Qi, who was still outside the city, immediately became anxious and shouted angrily: "I am the general who was personally ordered by the king to lead the army on the expedition!"

"The truth is still outside the city, who dares to close the city gate!"

The soldiers immediately sat down.

On the right is the Prime Minister, who will die if offended.

The one on the left is the left prime minister, and if you offend someone, you will die.

The soldiers caught in the middle don't know whose advice they can listen to in order to survive!

Fortunately, Zhang Rang did not embarrass them and shouted outside the city:

"Prime Minister Han, the Qin army has been mixed into your army!"

"All those with black cloth on their right arms are surrendered soldiers who rebelled against Han and surrendered to Qin. If they are allowed to enter the city, Xinzheng will be in danger!"

"Please Prime Minister Han enter the city through the North Gate!"

Han Qi looked around and saw several Qin soldiers with black cloth tied on their right arms. He was afraid and angry and ordered:

"Send an order to the entire army: Anyone with a black cloth on their right arm is an enemy!"

"Decision!"

Seeing several soldiers quietly taking off their black cloths and continuing to hide among the army, Zhang Rang knew that it was impossible for Han Qi to kill all the Qin troops who had sneaked in before entering the city, so he gave the order: "Come forward, close the door!"

Fifty Zhang family members immediately stepped forward, took over the soldiers' positions, and pushed the inside of the city gate to close it.

Han Qi panicked and ordered: "Stop it all!"

"You are trying to kill the Prime Minister's subordinates and take the King hostage!
"Left and right, charge into the city! Protect us!"

Before Han Qi's soldiers could respond, many soldiers had already shouted:
"Listen to Prime Minister Han's order and charge into the city!"

"The defenders in the city want to kill us, but I don't want to die! Are you all willing to die? They won't let our troops enter the city, so we will fight in!"

"First board! First board!"

Listening to the cries of the soldiers, Han Qi was quite relieved at first.

Although the morale of these soldiers was very low when they killed the enemy, fortunately they were very active when they returned to the city.

But as he listened, Han Qi felt something was wrong.

Climb first?

Isn’t that what you would shout when facing an enemy city?
The fallen pawns mixed in with the army have not been completely eliminated yet!

However, when Han Qi realized something was wrong, the Korean army crowded outside the city had been aroused and shouted angrily:

"I don't want to die, kill!"

"I just want to go home, why don't you let me go home? You can't bully honest people like this!"

"Listen to the general's orders and enter the city!"

While shouting, Han Jun pointed his weapon at the Zhang family members.

They are no longer just swarming into the city like headless flies, but are also attacking the city defenders in a targeted manner!

Zhang Rang's face changed drastically: "Stop the knife cart!"

Zhang Rang's eldest son Zhang Sheng couldn't help admonishing: "Aweng (father), most of the people outside the city are our soldiers!"

Zhang Rang shouted angrily: "Hurry!"

Seeing Zhang Rang so determined and anxious, Zhang Sheng stopped trying to persuade him and ran to the back of the city gate himself.

Soon, with the push of fifteen tribesmen, the Semen knife cart was pushed to the entrance of the city gate cave.

"Aon!"

Hearing Zhang Sheng's shouting, Zhang Rang shouted: "Make way!" The Zhang family members who were pushing the door quickly let go and stood tightly against the walls on both sides of the city gate.

The Korean army outside the city only felt that the city gate suddenly opened, and then a gate-blocking knife cart appeared in front of them.

The whole vehicle is about three feet wide, which is the same width as the city gate. There is a grid-like wooden board about one foot high (2.31 meters) standing on the front.

In addition to the wooden boards, there are also installed a total of 84 hundred-forged sharp knives with a length of two feet (46.2 cm), shining with a breathtaking cold light under the scorching sun!
Zhang Sheng shouted in a hissing voice: "People of the tribe obey orders."

"push!"

While roaring, the muscles of Zhang Sheng's arms were trembling, and he and the fifteen tribesmen pushed the sword cart and ran wildly.

"Back! Rewind!"

"People behind you, stop crowding and give way!"

Seeing 84 sharp knives charging towards them, most of the Korean troops instantly lost their fighting spirit and screamed in surprise, wanting to retreat.

However, there were more than ten Korean soldiers who knew that there was no way to retreat, so they had no choice but to stab the sword cart with their spears.

"kill!"

The tip of the spear hit the cart accurately, but it couldn't penetrate the front plate at all and couldn't cause any damage!
Han Jun, who was holding a spear in his hand, was thrown upside down by the roof of the sword cart, but the Han Jun standing beside him was facing the sword cart directly.

With just one impact, the Korean soldier's limbs, torso and brain were completely pierced by several sharp knives, and he died instantly!

Zhang Rang immediately ordered: "Fix the sword cart and reinforce the city gate!"

Zhang Sheng and others quickly moved stones and heavy wood to block the back wheels of the cart, so that the cart was firmly stuck at the city gate.

There are more than a dozen tribesmen holding special flat-pole spears and thrusting outwards along the front grille of the Semen knife cart.

Dozens of steel knives, dozens of spears, and the huge and solid front panel of the car body together formed a temporary fortress densely covered with fangs!

If you want to break this barrier, you can only use siege equipment.

But Han Qi went out of the city to fight in the field, so how could he carry siege equipment?
The moment the door-blocking knife cart was in place, Zhang Rang declared to Han Qi that this road was blocked!
"Zhang Rang is a thief!" Han Qi shouted angrily: "Just because of the grievances in the court, you are ignoring the survival of the country?"

"If the Qin army captures Xinzheng, Zhang Rang, you will be Korea's eternal sinner!"

After glaring at Zhang Rang, Han Qi shouted: "Turn the whole army around and return to the court from the North City Gate!"

The Qin army's front guard, Ying Chengyu, was also paying close attention to the battle situation.

When he saw the Semen knife cart in place, he knew that this round of siege was over.

For the Qin army, which had not yet built and assembled siege equipment, it was difficult to break through the defense line of the Semen Knife Cart.

But how could such a great opportunity go without success?

Ying Chengyu's eyes fell on Han Qi: "Instruct the front army to stop attacking the city and target the Han army's troops outside the city!"

"Send the order to the central army, and the crossbowmen will come forward and use the crossbow arrows to destroy the Korean troops outside the city!"

The Central, Qian, and Nanyang armies of the Qin Dynasty came forward and surrounded Han Qi's troops. Crossbow bolts shot out from the sky at Han Qi's troops as if they were free.

In just a short period of time, nearly ten thousand people under Han Qi's command had been killed!

The morale of the army was in chaos, and Han Qi had no possibility of counterattack. He could only shout at the top of his lungs over and over again:

"Go close to the city wall! North City Gate! Target the North City Gate! Kill!"

With the help of the garrison on the city wall, Han Qi's troops finally broke through the siege and returned to Xinzheng along the north city gate.

Feng Ting immediately wanted to repeat his old trick and follow Han Qi back to the city as he did at the South City Gate.

But Tengfu immediately dissuaded him: "Captain Feng, there is an Wengcheng in Xinzheng City."

"If they are not prepared, they can still fish in troubled waters, but now the enemy has discovered that our troops have mixed in, and it is inevitable that our soldiers will be trapped in an urn."

"And the general's order is also to destroy the Korean army outside the city, not to attack the city."

Feng Ting felt a little regretful: "Then just listen to what Captain Teng said."

"It's a pity that we can't succeed in one battle!"

Teng Fu smiled: "Throughout the ages, there have been very few battles that destroyed a city in one day."

"It is normal for two armies to confront each other and fight for months."

"Today's battle has already destroyed the morale of our Qin army, killed a large number of soldiers of the Korean army, and severely damaged the morale of the Korean army."

"A great victory!"

Feng Ting nodded lightly: "What Brother Teng said is true."

Pulling the reins, Feng Ting shouted loudly: "Withdraw the troops!"
