Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

"Kill!"

The Qin army had already rushed up to the wall of the mechanical city.

The ladders were set up on the mechanical city. One by one, the Qin soldiers resisted the crossbows shot from the wall. After leaving a pile of corpses, the first Qin soldier finally climbed up the wall.

As the Qin army climbed up the wall, they began to fight hand-to-hand with the Mohist disciples. One by one, the Qin soldiers followed closely and rushed up.

More and more Qin soldiers climbed up the wall, and the resistance of the Mohist disciples gradually became weak.

These Mohist disciples were just people from the underworld, and they had never experienced a real war.

After feeling the misery of the war, some people finally couldn't hold on and knelt on the ground and began to beg for mercy.

"We surrender, we surrender!"

One by one, the Mohist disciples made ghostly cries and wolves howled.

But the Qin army was already blood-curdling at this time, and didn't care about these surrendered Mohist disciples at all.

They rushed forward and hacked at them, and soon, with screams, they chopped hundreds of Mohist disciples into pulp.

This time, Shejian led his own soldiers to attack the city.

After the Qin army cleared the entire city wall, Shejian also climbed up the ladder.

The Qin general was injured at this time, with wounds pierced by arrows.

After climbing up the ladder, he looked at the scene of hundreds of people dying and being chopped into pulp, and whispered: "The Mohist mechanical art is indeed well-deserved."

As he said this, there was a trace of fear on Shejian's face.

Just to attack this city wall, the Qin army left more than a thousand corpses.

The city wall was covered with various mechanical devices, and every step was extremely difficult.

Even he, a general with good martial arts skills, was hit by an arrow, let alone other ordinary soldiers.

In the end, they were able to attack the city wall thanks to Gongshu's mechanical beasts.

Gongshu's mechanical beasts transported the Qin army and dropped them onto the city wall again and again.

Although there were only a hundred people dropped each time, when these hundred people fought with the Mohist disciples, they gave other Qin soldiers the opportunity to climb the city.

Shejian looked at the bodies of the dead Mohist disciples. There were not many people guarding the city.

Compared with the total number of Mohist disciples in the Mechanical City, there might be less than one-tenth of them here.

Shejian knew that it must be the spies placed by His Majesty in the Mohist who made great contributions and solved most of the Mohist disciples.

Otherwise, if all the Mohist disciples were still there and could take turns to defend, the 50,000 Qin soldiers he brought would probably not be able to take down the Mechanical City.

"Fortunately, there is only one mechanical city in the world. If every city is so difficult to attack, it would be impossible to capture the city."

Shejian took a deep breath and ordered his adjutant: "Everyone, get ready and let the follow-up soldiers climb up the city wall."

"Don't touch the gate of the mechanical city. Who knows if there is any terrible mechanism hidden there."

"Yes!"

The adjutant took it.The order was to immediately have the messenger run down the ladder to notify the reserve army and let them follow.

"General, you should treat your wound first, don't let it rot."

Shejian's adjutant reminded him.

Shejian did not refuse, and immediately found a military doctor to treat his wound.

There were Qin soldiers guarding the walls, and the rest of the Qin soldiers moved the corpses and piled them together, preparing to burn them.

Otherwise, so many corpses would easily spread the plague.

The Qin army's reserve soldiers climbed up the walls one by one. The mechanical city occupied a vast area, and even if there were nearly 3,000 people in the city, it seemed very empty.

With 3,000 troops, Shejian did not dare to order the army to advance.

It was still unknown how many organs there were in the mechanical city. If he acted at will, it was very likely that the 3,000 troops would be wiped out without even seeing a Mohist disciple.

Until Gongshu Chou also came to the Mechanical City, Shejian quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying: "Mr. Gongshu, I will rely on you next."

At this time, Shejian was very fortunate that the head of the Gongshu family came to the Mechanical City with them.

Otherwise, Shejian would not dare to move forward a step after arriving here, mainly because he did not know how many deadly mechanisms were hidden in this Mechanical City.

Gongshu Chou smiled and said: "General, you don't have to be polite. This is also my duty."

"But this is the Mohist base camp after all. I don't know much about the mechanisms here. Our advance may be slower."

Shejian said: "It doesn't matter if it's slower. We can't let our men die here in vain."

The two exchanged a few more polite words, and Gongshu Chou stopped talking nonsense.

He took the brunt and walked in front with Shejian, letting the Qin army behind catch up and explore the city bit by bit.

Seeing this mechanical city, Gongshu Chou was even more excited: "After 200 years, I, Gongshu, finally came to the mechanical city."

"This mechanical city is full of traces and works left by Mozi in the past, which is just suitable for me, Gongshu, to study and make me, Gongshu, go further in mechanical art."

"Those Mohist disciples are really squandering. There are so many treasures here but they don't know how to study them. They just know to guard them and not use them."

Under the leadership of Gongshu Chou, the Qin army moved slowly.

Gongshu Chou is worthy of being the head of this generation of Gongshu family. He has already mastered mechanical art.

He can identify and destroy most of the mechanical cities.

When he encounters some mechanical systems that he can't understand and is not sure about, he just finds a way to bypass them.

Soon, thousands of Qin soldiers followed Gongshu Chou into the mechanical city.

Along the way, they also saw many Mohist disciples who were paralyzed, unconscious, or without strength.

From their appearance, they must have been poisoned.

Shejian did not let the Qin army kill these Mohist disciples againInstead of killing them, they tied them all up and prepared to take them as prisoners.

When they returned to Xianyang, they would be more respectable with such a large number of prisoners.

Coming to the core of the Mechanical City, Gongshu Chou stopped in front of the huge meeting hall.

"Mr. Gongshu?"

Shejian looked at him puzzled.

Gongshu Chou stared at the huge stone weighing ten thousand jin in front of him. He looked left and right, frowned, and said, "Difficult, difficult, difficult!"

"I can't crack this mechanism."

"If I'm right, those Mohist disciples and their leaders who can still move should be in front at this time. That should be the core area of ​​the mechanism city."

"But they should have activated the last mechanism and completely sealed it off. If we can't unlock this mechanism, it's impossible for us to get in."

"If I'm right, there may even be food stored there for thousands of people to use for several years."

Gongshu Chou frowned, and his expression was a little irritable.

Shejian was also depressed when he heard this.

If there is so much food in there, they have to fight with these Mohists like this? I don't know how many years it will take.

What's the point of just capturing so many Mohist disciples? If they can't get rid of the Mohist leader and completely control the entire Mechanical City, then it won't be a victory.

Just when the Qin army entered the Mechanical City, the Snow Girl also smelled the movement in a hidden hut in the Mechanical City.

She listened carefully and heard many footsteps outside, and her face was happy.

This should be the Qin army attacking the Mechanical City, otherwise there would not be so many footsteps, and most of the Mohist disciples would have lost their mobility long ago.

Thinking of this, the Snow Girl immediately opened the mechanism.

She had to deliver the Mechanical City blueprint in her hand to the people who needed it. .
