Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Zhao Di, Wu Sui.

This was originally a famous military fortress of Zhao State.

But now, this place has been completely reduced to ruins.

The broken pieces of armor and weapons scattered everywhere, as well as the smoke and flames of war, bear witness to the tragic fighting here not long ago.

Faced with the war weapons created by the Gongshu family's overbearing machine skills, even the Wusui City Wall, which was more than several feet high, failed to hold up in the end. Under the repeated bombardment of various war weapons, most of it finally collapsed.

The fortress that lost its walls was like the West that lost Jerusalem two thousand years later.

Although the city is still there, it is no different from a young woman's boudoir that is left open late at night.

Today it is an abandoned fortress.

However, no one found it.

Not long after the war ended here.

After being repulsed, a Qin army team quietly returned to the city that had been reduced to ruins, and began to rebuild the collapsed city walls.

"Uncle Dajiang, what are we doing?"

In the Qin Army team, a recruit named "Lu Wei" looked puzzled while carrying bricks and rubble in the ruins, and couldn't help but ask the senior next to him.

"Build the wall!"

"What? Build a wall? Build a wall at this time. What will we do if Zhao Jun comes back suddenly?" Lu Wei couldn't help but exclaimed after hearing this.

"Don't worry! Now the frontline army has led Zhao Jun to the battlefield a hundred miles away. Even if the opponent starts to retreat at this time, it will not be possible to return here in less than four or five days."

Veteran ‘Dajiang’ didn’t care at all about Lu Wei’s worries and said carelessly.

However, after hearing this, Lu Wei not only did not feel relieved, but felt even worse.

"Four or five days? But if you want to complete the repair of such a city wall, it will take at least a month to complete!"

As soon as these words came out, before veteran Dajiang could speak, he heard another veteran grinning at him and said: "Hey~~ boy, you are new! Today I will give you a long experience and let you know What is miraculous skill?"

at the same time.

Qin, Yanmen.

Meng Ao stood on the top of the wall wearing a battle armor, followed by Meng Tian on the left and Qin general Huan Jue on the right. The three of them looked at the camp of one hundred thousand Zhao troops stationed outside the city with cold eyes.

a month ago.

Qin General Meng Ao led an army of 200,000 troops to the border of Zhao State, and asked King Zhao Qian for an explanation on the grounds that "Qin State's [new grain] was stolen a few months ago."

Zhao Guo naturally refused to admit it.

Luo Xingmen’s stealing of [new grain seeds] was indeed just a fabrication by Lord Mo and Ying Zheng, but Zhao Guo’s theft of [new grain seeds] was a fact.

But the theft was committed by a petty thief, and Zhao Guo, as one of the Seven Heroes of the Warring States Period, could not openly admit that he had done such a heinous thing.

So Zhao Guo said: "Old Qin! You came to question me so openly and openly, and I, Old Zhao, can't stand it. This matter is very difficult to handle!"

Then Qin Guo overturned the table: "Is it difficult to do? Then don't do it!"

Qite opened her eyes and took a good look.

I, Lao Qin, have brought so many troops here, do I seem to be working with you?

So the war was about to break out.

Meng Ao led an army of 200,000 people to advance from two directions. In less than half a month, they attacked Yanmen and Yunzhong in Zhao State.

And they are still advancing towards Zhao's domestic line until they arrive outside Wusui City of Zhao State.

Until then.

Zhao Wangqian finally couldn't sit still.

He hurriedly dispatched Zhao General Hu Zou and led an army of 100,000 to rush to the rear for reinforcements. In the end, he fought with the Qin army outside Wusui City for three days and three nights.

After paying the price of destroying half of Wusui City, the Zhao army finally succeeded in keeping the Qin army out of the city, and launched a counterattack, pushing the Qin army back to Yanmen.

Um!

At least in Zhao Guo's view, Hu Zou at this time had indeed pushed the front back.

However, in fact, this is Meng Ao's plan to lure the enemy deeper.

······

"It's almost time!"

Looking at the rising sun in the sky, Meng Ao took out a 'sundial pocket watch' from his arms, silently calculated in his mind the time it would take for Wu Sui to build the city wall, and then said in a deep voice.

"Where is Meng Tian?"

"Here is my humble duty."

"I have ordered you to command an army of 50,000 men, march from the left flank, and block the enemy's left retreat without any mistakes."

"Subordinates take orders."

Meng Tian bowed and took Meng Ao's general order.

Then Meng Ao spoke to the right again.

"Where is Huanjue?"

"My subordinate is here."

"I have ordered you to command an army of 50,000 men, march from the right flank, and block the enemy's retreat on the right without any mistakes."

"Subordinates take orders."

Huan Jue also bowed his hands respectfully and received Meng Ao's general order.

"The rest of the soldiers follow my command, march from the front, and attack!"

Following Meng Ao's order, 200,000 Qin troops suddenly dispatched and attacked Zhao Jun's camp with an unprecedented momentum.

In just the first round of charge, countless Zhao troops were immediately stunned.

After all, in the past few days of war, Zhao Guo had been winning consecutive battles. Why did the situation suddenly become like this?

Only half an hour.

The frontline army of 100,000 Zhao troops was crumbling under Meng Ao's repeated attacks.

Seeing that his own army was about to collapse, General Zhao could only issue military orders and was forced to choose to retreat temporarily, intending to return to the rear to regroup before making plans.

But then.

Something that Ling Huzo didn't expect happened again.

In this battle, the Qin army had clearly gained a huge advantage, but they did not even clean the battlefield and directly pursued the defeated Zhao army.

Such behavior certainly made Hu Zhi couldn't help but be stunned.

To know.

Today's Zhao army has only suffered a defeat, but it has not yet been completely defeated and lost its combat effectiveness.

In this case, chasing after someone like this is never the right decision.

Don't enter the forest, don't chase the poor bandits.

These are some of the most basic essentials of the art of war.

What war is about is to repeat it again and again, and again and again, and then it will be exhausted...

A long chase will not only consume a lot of physical energy, but if the chase fails to achieve results, it can easily cause a decline in one's own morale.

If it is this time.

If the enemy suddenly launches a counterattack, it can easily lead to a desperate comeback.

Logically speaking, this kind of low-level tactical error should not appear on the body of a master in the art of war.

Hu Zhe was quite puzzled by what the Qin army was doing, but the Qin army's persistence did not give Hu Zhe much time to think.

Facing the pursuit of nearly 200,000 troops, Hu Zhi could only fight and retreat.

Until five days later.

When the remaining 70,000 to 80,000 Zhao troops under the command of Hu Zhe retreated back to Wusui, the group's eyes widened when they looked at the scene in front of them.
