Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon

Chapter 199 The Threat of Indifference

As more and more Qin soldiers climbed up the city wall, the fighting will of the Diqiu City defenders was constantly being undermined. In less than half an hour, the entire southern wall of Diqiu City was occupied by the Qin army. The Qin army who climbed onto the city wall reorganized their organization and attacked the surrounding walls.

As time passed, as the last Diqiu defender in the city gate put down his weapon in despair, the gate of the southern city of Diqiu City was controlled by the Qin army, while Gongsun Yu and Jing Ke outside the city gate Everyone finally waited for the city gate to be opened, but unfortunately, it was not the defenders of Diqiu City who opened the city gate, but their enemies.

Looking at Yang Ming appearing in the city, Gongsun Yu felt a deep despair. He was originally going to protect Diqiu City, but not only did he fail to protect it, he actually helped its destroyer.

If he hadn't made a dangerous plan and sent out to attack the Qin army, how could the Qin army have seized the opportunity? Thinking of this, Gongsun Yu, who had been seriously injured by Yang Ming, turned even paler. He took it from a guard soldier. The dagger couldn't help but tremble.

To this day, the only thing left is death.

However, Jing Ke did not deserve to die here. If we all died here, how could Lier survive alone? At the last moment of his life, Gongsun Yu thought of his granddaughter and his only relative Gongsun Li.

"General Gongsun, if you put down the sword in your hand now, you may still be able to save a life." Yang Ming, who had completely controlled the city gate and wall in his hands, said.

"It's just an old life. It doesn't have much time left. Why be greedy for a moment and ignore the eternal reputation behind you." Gongsun Yu straightened his back. Although his body was disabled, his fighting spirit has not diminished. On the contrary, because he is already dead, His ambition made his sword energy become more and more fierce.

"Your posthumous reputation is too illusory for you, but these people around you are all living people. If you die, I will guarantee that these people around you will be killed, and you will be buried as a sacrifice to General Gongsun. ." Yang Ming threatened.

"They are our soldiers who defend the country. They died for the country and deserved their death." Gongsun Yu rushed towards Yang Ming as he spoke.

But Yang Ming had no intention of fighting him alone at this time. With a wave of his hand, several rows of archers behind him were already firing arrows. Inside the city gate with limited space, Gongsun Yu and the guards around him , there was no room to move and dodge. Although they tried their best to block the arrows with the weapons in their hands, dozens of people fell under the random arrows in an instant.

Under the random arrows of the Qin army, the number of guard soldiers around Gongsun Yu continued to decrease. After courage briefly dominated their reason, when timidity dominated their nerves again, some of the guard soldiers finally collapsed.

"I surrender, I surrender, spare my life, spare your life." Beside Gongsun Yu, someone put down their weapons and knelt on the ground in despair.

And Yang Ming waved his hand to stop the Qin army's arrow array.

"If you surrender, drop your weapons, hold your head in your hands, and walk out along both sides." Yang Ming said.

As Yang Ming finished speaking, the sound of clanging could be heard around Gongsun Yu. In an instant, more than a hundred people had dropped their weapons and walked towards the Qin army against the wall of the city gate.

Gongsun Yu looked at the surrendered guards and did not want to say anything more. They were all warriors who defended the country, but because of his own incompetence, he brought them into a desperate situation. It was understandable that they wanted to live, and he What can I be blamed for?

Seeing only a few scattered figures around him, Gongsun Yu gave up completely and waved the bronze dagger in his hand to ask himself, so as not to be humiliated.

"General Gongsun, how many friends do you have in the city?" Yang Ming suddenly asked.

"What do you want?" Gongsun Yu held the bronze dagger in his hand for a moment, and he thought of a bad possibility.

"It would be too lonely for you to go on the road alone. Why don't I send some of your relatives and friends to go with you? Can you have a thousand of your relatives and friends? If so, send a thousand people to go with you. This will also Be more lively." Yang Ming said lightly, but the content made people feel a biting chill.

The so-called threat does not necessarily have to be shouting hoarse, it can also be like Yang Ming, using the calmest and most indifferent tone to say the cruelest words in the world.

"You?" Gongsun Yu pointed his sword at Yang Ming, his gray beard trembling violently in anger. Under the three-point return of vitality, his severely injured body could no longer support it. A mouthful of old blood spurted out, and he almost fell down. .

"I once heard that you also have a granddaughter. Although she is young, she is already quite charming. It's just that she was raised in a boudoir and no one knows about it..." Yang Ming continued.

"What do you want to do?" Jing Ke was furious when he heard this and was about to draw his sword to kill Yang Ming, but he was held back by Gongsun Yu.

Gongsun Yu looked at Yang Ming. He knew that Yang Ming's threat was not just words, but that he would actually do it. For a moment, Gongsun Yu was shaken. Although he was not afraid of death, he was the only one who could make the decision. He is not qualified to decide the life and death of others. If it is because of himself that countless people are implicated in life and death, it will be difficult to rest in peace even after death.

It is said that people will go to another world after death. How should he face it if he sees those who died because of his involvement there?

"You..." Gongsun Yu pointed at Yang Ming, trying his best to suppress his anger and despair with reason.

"That's all, that's all, I'll just surrender." Gongsun Yu dropped the bronze dagger in his hand, as well as the belief that supported him.

When the time came to dusk, the outer city of Diqiu City was completely controlled by the Qin army. Only Weijun Palace had not yet been captured.

Among the Qin army who moved to the tower of Diqiu City, Yang Ming took off his armor. A red sword wound on his chest was leaking blood, and the inner garment he threw aside had already stained red with blood.

If it were an ordinary wound, it would have recovered long ago under the powerful recovery ability of San San Gui Yuan Qi. However, in the wound caused by Bai Bu Fei Sword, there were wisps of difficult sword energy and sword intention fighting against San San Gui Yuan Qi. Restoration of vitality.

"Hundred-step Flying Sword? I saw it today, and I will have the opportunity to see it again in the future." Yang Ming smiled, and then stretched out his hand to wipe the deep and shallow wounds.

Since the passive recovery of three points of vitality cannot eliminate the wounds caused by the Hundred Steps Flying Sword, it is not too difficult for Yang Ming to take the initiative to heal the wounds and remove the sword energy and sword intent.

Under the front of the Qin army, the once prosperous Diqiu City at night has fallen into a strange atmosphere. The city is dark. Even the officials and dignitaries who like to stay up all night to drink and indulge in indulgence have put away their homes one by one. My hobby is waiting for tomorrow in fear and anxiety.

"General Zuo, are you going to attack the Imperial Palace tomorrow?" Wang Jian, who had returned from his inspection, walked into the city gate tower and asked Yang Ming.

"What does General Wang mean?" Yang Ming, who had put on his clean underwear again, asked.

"Weijun is not a man of backbone. He will surrender voluntarily under heavy pressure. We don't have to storm Weijun's palace. This can also reduce casualties and destruction." Wang Jian said.

"Reducing casualties is very desirable, but reducing damage is not what I want." Yang Ming looked at Wang Jian and said.

"Why is this?" Wang Jian asked in surprise.

Yang Ming wants to destroy this Emperor Qiu City? There is no reason for Yang Ming to do this.

From Wang Jian's observation, Yang Ming was not a cruel person, so why did he dislike the fact that he did too little damage?

"To destroy the Wei Kingdom is more than just occupying their city. Occupying the city is just the beginning." Yang Ming said.

"We still need to establish the order that belongs to our Qin State in Diqiu City. If we want to establish a new order that belongs to our Qin State, we can only destroy the old order." Yang Mingdao.

"Back then, the State of Wei intervened in the internal affairs of the State of Wei, imprisoned and executed the ancestors of the State of Wei, and established the current ruler of the State of Wei. This was the rule established by the State of Wei in Diqiu City, not the order of our State of Qin."

"And this is an opportunity we can use to avenge the late king of Wei, eliminate half of the dignitaries in Diqiu City, and then support some of the forces loyal to us. Only in this way can we completely occupy Diqiu City." Yang Ming said achieve their ultimate goal.

"If this is the case, the killing may be quite heavy." Wang Jian reminded.

What Yang Ming will do next is beyond what a general in charge of the army should do. If a censor takes the opportunity to attack, then Yang Ming really seems to have gone too far.

"When a country is destroyed, someone must die for it. If we only think about you and me and everyone, then what do we need our army for?" Yang Ming said nonchalantly.

Diqiu City was connected to the north and south. It was natural that such a place should be completely incorporated into the Qin State's ruling order, and occupying the city was only the beginning of establishing the Qin State's ruling order.

On the second day, just when Weijun was thinking about surrendering, the Qin army launched a brazen attack. Even the monarch was ready to surrender. One can imagine the fighting will of the defenders of Weijun palace. After a few loyal and brave men were killed by the Qin army, After the absolute power was destroyed, less than an hour after the attack was launched in the morning, Weijun Palace fell into the control of the Qin army.

"The small country of Wei can actually build a palace of such a scale." Yang Ming, standing in the main hall of Weijun Palace, looked out at the sun that was approaching the sky and said to the people on his left and right.

"No matter how grand they build it, it now belongs to our Qin State." A lieutenant under Meng Wu from Dongjun said.

"Yes, it already belongs to our Qin country." Yang Ming said thoughtfully.

But the war is not over yet. Although Diqiu City is vulnerable, Zhao and Wei may not really be willing to sit back and watch the Qin army occupy Weiguo so calmly. The war has not stopped. The calm after the victory in front of them is to obtain the next step. The build-up to a greater victory.

At this time, in Chaoge City, hundreds of miles away from here, which was originally the capital of the Wei Kingdom but was occupied by the Wei Kingdom, tens of thousands of Wei soldiers came all the way from Daliang.

The leading veteran raised his head and looked at Chaoge City in front of him. This was a face that was familiar to Yang Ming: Wei Yong, Sikong of Wei State, the general in charge of military affairs.
