The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

Thousands of stone bullets were coming towards Qufu City. Kong Fu saw them coming towards them and shouted: "Hide quickly!" The soldiers of the Lu Army on the city wall hid behind the parapet.

However, the stone bullets did not hit them, but went over the city wall and hit the houses in the city. Kong Fu looked into the city and saw dozens of houses destroyed by stone bullets, and some people were crushed under the ruins. Kong Fu shouted with tears in his eyes: "Hurry, hurry up and save the people!"

Hundreds of Lu soldiers ran down the city to save the people. Some people were crushed and wailed in pain, and some people were directly hit by the stone bullets, becoming bloody.

Wei Cuo saw that the range was just right, and gave another order: "Use kerosene!" The soldiers of the Wei Army put a lot of small stones and straw in the earthenware jars, poured some kerosene on them, and put them on the catapults. A general of the Wei Army shouted: "Fire!" Thousands of kerosene jars were thrown towards Qufu City. Wei Cuo looked at Qufu City with a smile.

Kong Fu looked at the flaming oil tanks and was shocked! The oil tanks went over the city wall and headed for the houses in the city. In an instant, countless houses were on fire.

Ah~~ Help! Kong Fu looked at the people being ruthlessly devoured by the fire, and his heart was broken! Kong Fu personally ran to the bottom of the city wall, grabbed a plate of soldiers' buckets and handed them to the houses, shouting: "Hurry up, put out the fire! You also go to save the people!" - Yes!

Wei Cuo looked at the thick black smoke in Qufu City and smiled: "It seems that the enemy army is in chaos." A general came over and asked: "General, do you still need to use catapults to attack the city?" Wei Cuo thought for a while and said: "Order to continue throwing stones!" - Yes!

When Kong Fu was directing the Lu army to put out the fire, thousands of stone bullets fell from the sky. When Kong Fu just reacted, the general beside him rushed over, and a stone fell down, almost hitting Kong Fu. Some soldiers and civilians who did not react were smashed into meat by these stone bullets. Some stone bullets directly hit the burning houses and those that were not on fire fell down with a bang, and those houses on fire were hit by stone bullets and exploded directly. The burning wood flew directly to other houses and ignited new fires.

Kong Fu stood up and wiped the dust off his face. At this time, he was also a little at a loss. As soon as he looked up, thousands of stone bullets shot at them again. He shouted desperately: "Hide quickly!" Bang! The stone bullets hit the ground and stirred up a large cloud of dust. The people hid under the city wall. Several stone bullets just hit a well and the waterway in the city. When this wave of stone bomb attacks ended, there were no more attacks. Kong Fu climbed up the city wall and found that the Wei army outside the city had already evacuated. Kong Fu wiped the sweat from his forehead and exhaled.

When the fire in the city was extinguished, the Lu soldiers who were fighting the fire sat directly on the ground. Several soldiers walked to the tunnel nearby, scooped up a bucket of water with a water scoop, drank a few sips, and suddenly knelt down, covering their throats with both hands and spitting white foam, and fell down. A group of soldiers saw it and ran over. A general felt the soldier's pulse and found that it was gone. He shook his head and said, "Dead." At this time, anotherSome civilians and soldiers also fell down, foaming at the mouth. The general saw something was wrong and shouted: "Don't drink the water from this waterway and those wells!"

Then, the general walked to the stone bullet that hit the waterway, asked someone to fish it out, touched the surface of the stone bullet with his hand, smelled it and said secretly: "It's poisonous!" He said to the soldier beside him: "Go and tell the prime minister!" - Yes!

Kong Fu was resting in the tower, and a soldier ran in hurriedly and said: "Prime Minister, the surface of the stone bullets thrown by the Wei army just now was smeared with poison, and hundreds of soldiers and civilians have been poisoned and died!" Kong Fu grabbed his hand tightly and said: "Order that all waterways and wells hit by the Wei army's stone bullets can no longer be drunk, and all water must be transported from the inner city!" - Yes!

In the Wei army camp, Wei Cuo read a book and drank wine, as if today was not on the battlefield but at home. Deputy General Shi was asked: "General, will you continue tomorrow?" Wei Cuo put down the book and said: "Continue, don't stop within five days, keep throwing." - Yes! Wei Cuo said again: "Tonight, you take some people to build a simple ladder and build a thousand! It should be built in five days." - Yes!

The next morning, the Wei army's catapults began to attack the city again. But this time the stone bullets did not hit the city, but hit the city wall madly. The city wall was riddled with holes by the stone bullets, and the watchtowers and arrow towers on the city wall had been completely destroyed.

Kong Fu looked at the whistling stone bullets, and the Lu army soldiers hid under the city wall and dared not go up the city wall. Some Lu army soldiers hid behind the parapet on the city wall, but how could the parapet withstand the crazy bombing of the catapult. Some stone bullets directly blew a big hole in the parapet.

After bombarding for several days, all the people and soldiers in Qufu were very afraid of the catapults of the Wei army. The people were already terrified by the threat of the catapults every day. Kong Fu has been commanding the army to provide disaster relief and set up a clinic to help the people in the past few days.

Kong Fu was looking at the Wei army camp on the tower. The general next to him came over and said, "Prime Minister, the catapult attack of the Wei army has stopped today." Kong Fu sighed and said, "Send the injured people to the clinic for treatment, and you take some people to repair the city defense." - Yes!

In the evening, Wei Cuo was playing chess with Shi Bei. Shi Bei asked, "General, when are we going to attack the city?" Wei Cuo smiled and said, "Tonight, in another hour, order the entire army to attack the city immediately! These days, we have exhausted the Lu army and frightened the people in the capital of Lu. Now is the time when the enemy army relaxes its vigilance. It's time to take the opportunity to attack the city!" - Yes!

Below the city wall, a large group of Wei soldiers rushed over carrying thousands of ladders, followed by more than 10,000 Wei soldiers. Shi Bei led the soldiers to set up the ladders under the cover of night. On the city wall, because the Wei army had been harassed for the past few days, and the Wei army did not use catapults to attack the city today, the Lu army basically rested, with only a few soldiers guarding. All of a sudden, more than 1,000 Wei soldiers climbed up the city wall. The few Lu soldiers in charge of defense sawThen he shouted: "Enemy attack!"...

Kong Fu was sorting books in the academy. He finally had some time to rest and relax. A soldier suddenly rushed in and said: "Prime Minister, the Wei army has entered the city!"

"What!" Kong Fu looked at the soldier in horror. He asked: "How did the Wei army attack the city?" The soldier said: "Prime Minister, the Wei army suddenly had more than 1,000 ladders set up on our city wall, and quickly 1,000 soldiers climbed the city wall, occupied the tower, and opened the city gate!" Kong Fu hurriedly followed the soldier out of the mansion.

On the street, the Wei army had already started a fight with the Lu army, killing and killing ~~ The Lu army was retreating step by step. Kong Fu brought more than 500 armored soldiers to support and finally resisted the attack of the Wei army. Shi Bei saw the Lu army coming to support and ordered: "Wu Zu, go forward and clear the way for the army!" Wei Buqi, wearing heavy armor, rushed forward with a long halberd in his hand, and kept fighting the Lu army in front. The Lu soldiers were frightened when they saw the arrival of Wei Wuzu and retreated. Shi Bei shouted: "Brothers, kill them!" The Lu army was beaten back step by step, and the long halberds and swords in the hands of the Wei army kept killing the Lu soldiers around. The archers of the Wei army also kept shooting the Lu soldiers with crossbows.

Kong Fu looked at the Wei Wuzu who were pressing step by step, and then looked at the surroundings that were basically controlled by the Wei army, and smiled bitterly. Several soldiers hurried over and said: "Prime Minister, you go to the palace with us first. The defense of the palace has not been broken." Kong Fu shook his head and said: "I have something to do, you all go to protect the king." After that, Kong Fu returned to the academy alone.

In the palace of Lu, Duke Ji Fen of Lu stood in front of the palace gate. At this time, the gate of the palace had been breached by the Wei army. Countless Wei soldiers rushed in and quickly surrounded Ji Fen standing in front of the palace. Ji Fen looked at the surrounding Wei soldiers and laughed loudly. Finally, he shouted: "Unfilial son Ji Fen, lose the foundation of the ancestors!" Then he drew his sword and committed suicide.

At this time, Wei Cuo was sitting in a chariot and entering the city. Not long after entering the city, Shi Bei came over and said, "General, the palace of Lu has been breached by our army, and the king of Lu has drawn his sword and committed suicide." Wei Cuo nodded and said, "You ask some people to transport all the rare treasures in the palace of Lu and the property in their treasury back to Anyi, Wei! Let's go to the world-famous Lu Academy first!"

Inside the academy, this academy that has been passed down since the early Western Zhou Dynasty has lost its former glory. The entire academy is empty. There is no one in charge, and no student is reading at night. Only Kong Fu sits silently in the hall of the academy. This academy has trained countless students, whether it is the Confucian saint Confucius, or Confucius' disciples Zilu, Yan Hui, Zigong and others, all studied here. It also trained many world-famous prime ministers and generals-Gong Yixiu and Wu Qi both studied here.

Wei Cuo walked in with hundreds of soldiers. He looked at the tall hall. In front of the hall was a bronze tripod weighing a thousand pounds. Wei Cuo walked forward and saw two words engraved on the bronze tripod - courtesy and benevolence.

Wei Cuo walked in and saw Kong Fu sitting in the hall. Kong Fu saw Wei Cuo coming in and slowly stood up and bowed, saying, "Meet General Wei Cuo." Then he said, "My Lu State has been destroyed, and the ancestral temple has been destroyed by your Wei State. Please treat the people of my Lu State well, and please don't destroy the precious books in this academy. These books have been preserved for hundreds of years. I hope you don't destroy this world-famous academy!" Then he drew his sword and committed suicide.

Wei Cuo sighed, "As expected of Confucius' descendants, the people here buried him with honor. They ordered that nothing in the academy could be taken away, and ordered the army to strictly prohibit looting in the city. If found, they would be killed without mercy!" - Yes! Since then, the Lu State, which had been founded in the Western Zhou Dynasty, has perished.

The news of the demise of the Lu State also quickly spread to the ears of all countries in the world.

Wei State Court

After receiving the news of the destruction of Lu State, the Marquis of Wei laughed and said, "Everyone, Lu State has been destroyed by Wei State, which is a cause for celebration!" The ministers below stood up and said, "It is a blessing for Wei State and the king!" Only a few ministers were worried.

Sima Wutong stood up and said: "Your Majesty, if Lu is destroyed, all countries in the world will be afraid of Wei, but this fear is not fear, but worry that Wei is too powerful. All countries in the world will definitely form an alliance to deal with Wei. Therefore, I think Wei will have to face the world's collective attack on all countries in the future! So we must give 1/3 of the territory of Chu, which we have conquered, to Chu, and even give some territory to Han."

The Marquis of Wei did not take Wutong's words seriously, but said: "Whoever dares to attack Wei, I will be the first to destroy his country. If they want to attack Wei from behind, they are nothing. Wei is the strongest country in the world. Whoever dares to sneak attack Wei from behind, I will be the first to destroy him!"——Your Majesty is wise!
