The Great Wei Empire in the Warring States Period

Qian Yong was on the nest car, looking at Baojiang City in the distance. The flag soldier beside him asked carefully: "General, should we wave the flag and leave the camp?"

Qian Yong ordered: "Leave the camp, the whole army is ready to attack the city!"

The flag soldier took the red flag and waved it forward and backward. The soldiers who had just finished their meal saw the red flag waving and hurriedly picked up their weapons. The soldiers who beat the drums saw the movement of the red flag and instantly sounded the drums.

The main general's flag was also inserted on the nest car, and a lieutenant who was delivering the order kept shouting: "The whole army is out of the camp, ready to fight!"

The soldiers picked up their shields, swords and halberds, quickly found their respective superiors, and came to their respective lieutenants under the leadership of the centurion.

In less than half an hour, the army was assembled. Standing on the nest car, Qiang Yong waved his hand and shouted: "All troops, leave the camp and prepare for battle!"

When the defenders of Baojiang City saw the orderly enemy army, they all looked at their commander. Although the commander of Baojiang did not show any fear on the surface, he was already panicking inside. After calming down for a while, the commander of Baojiang said firmly: "All troops, prepare for battle!"

Kill, kill~~

The Zhu army formed a battle formation, with chariots on the left and right wings. Qiang Yong looked at the soldiers around him, and each soldier had a firm look in his eyes.

Qiang Yong drew out his sword and pointed at the city in front of him, shouting: "Attack the city!"

The front team of the Ju army marched in an orderly pace towards the city wall. The Baojiang defenders looked at the firm steps of the Ju army. The courage of each soldier had reached his throat. There was even a soldier who was paralyzed on the ground. The Baojiang defender also shouted: "Our army will win! The whole army defends the city!"

Qiang Yong said expressionlessly: "Bowmen, come forward and shoot!" Thousands of bowmen arrived at the front of the battle, pulled the bowstrings in unison, and raised the crossbows in unison. With a swish, thousands of arrows were fired at the same time!

The Baojiang defenders saw the rain of arrows coming at them. Some soldiers with no battlefield experience were frightened and at a loss. The experienced veterans quickly raised their shields above their heads and hid under the parapet. An old soldier saw that the recruit next to him was still at a loss, so he quickly pulled him behind the parapet and used his shield to help him block it.

The commander of Baojiang also shouted when the rain of arrows was about to come: "All soldiers, get out of the way!"

Some soldiers who didn't have time to get out of the way were shot down. When the rain of arrows stopped, the soldiers poked their heads out from the parapet one after another. The commander ordered: "Archers, get ready!"

The soldier who was rescued just now also said to the old soldier with gray hair: "Thank you, sergeant!"

The old soldier ignored him, but took out the bow he was wearing, glanced at him, and said: "Boy, be careful next time, draw your bow quickly!"

When the Zhu army gradually approached, at a command, the defenders fired thousands of arrows at once, and the soldiers of the Zhu army remained calm and raised their shields. The rain of arrows shot at the Zhu army, but it still couldn't stop its advance.

A comrade on the side was shot down, wailing in pain. The Zhu army didn't care about the wounded at all, and stepped over directly. Some kind-hearted people directly added a knife to let him get rid of the pain in advance.

A hundred steps away from the city wall, the Ju army began to charge, and what greeted them was a rain of arrows. On the city wall, the Baojiang defender kept shouting: "Shoot, shoot!"

Although there were arrows raining down, it could not stop the Ju army. Ladders were leaning against the city wall. From then on, the bloody siege officially began.

Kill, kill~~ A Ju army lieutenant kept urging: "Go up quickly, go up quickly!"

Seeing that the enemy was about to climb the city, the defender hurriedly ordered: "Release the rolling wood quickly, don't let the enemy climb the city wall!"

The rolling wood was thrown down one by one, and the soldiers of the Ju army who were hit fell directly from the high ladders, wailing and shouting. The centurion in charge of supervising the battle directly finished off the wounded, so that they could feel better.

The wailing nearby did not stop the Ju army from attacking the city, but instead made them more powerful.

Finally, a soldier of the Ju army climbed up the city wall. He covered his teammates and climbed up the city wall. After a while, a bloody battle broke out on the city wall.

The long halberd stabbed, the sharp sword chopped, the spears, shields, bows and arrows, the city wall was already covered with blood. The Baojiang defender held an incomplete sword and said to the personal soldiers beside him: "Quick, call the patrol team in the city to defend the city!"

In the back, Qiang Yong still had no expression on his face. The captain beside him said: "General, our army has suffered more than a thousand casualties. It is better to retreat!"

Qiang Yong said: "No need, order the central army to attack the city, catapults, fire!"

Dozens of stone bullets flew and hit the city wall. Those who were hit were directly turned into meat paste. A soldier was left with only half of his body. The siege continued.

Inside the city, several soldiers of the Ju army came out of the tunnel. After observing that there was no one around, a large number of soldiers of the Ju army attacked along the tunnel.

On the city wall, the Qi army was desperately shooting arrows to stop the Ju army from climbing the city. The general of Baojiang was commanding the army to fight. Suddenly, there was a scream, "There are enemy troops in the rear!"

The general turned his head and saw that there were already thousands of enemy troops in the city. He didn't know how they got in. The general shouted, "Quick! Go and guard the city gate!"

The Ju army rushed to the city gate. Several soldiers of the Qi army who wanted to intercept were shot into twists by the bows and crossbows of the Ju army. The soldiers of the Ju army opened the bolt, and the heavy city gate was pushed open little by little.

Dozens of soldiers of the Qi army just arrived at the city gate, but it was too late. A large number of soldiers of the Ju army poured in from the city gate. The commander of Baojiang saw that the city gate was open and knew that he could not resist. He then laid down his weapons and surrendered.

When the other soldiers saw that their commander had surrendered, they also laid down their weapons and raised their hands to surrender. From then on, Baojiang City belonged to the State of Zhu.

Shu Kingdom Court

King Du Ping of Shu sat on the high hall and looked at the envoys of the State of Li below, and asked: "Envoys of the State of Li, what do you want to do here?"

The envoy of the State of Li bowed and said: "King of Shu, this time I come here to ask the King of Shu to send troops to rescue my State of Li. Both the State of Shu and my State of Li are vassal states of the King of Shu. This State of Zhu attacked our country for no reason. The king is ignoring you, the King of Shu!"

When Du Ping heard that the State of Zhu attacked other countries and launched a war without his consent, he was furious and said: "The State of Zhu is the only one who can do this!"Even so, how many troops did they send? "

The envoy of the State of Qi replied: "About 60,000 people, and 100 chariots." Du Ping was a little surprised to hear that the State of Zhu actually had chariots. After thinking for a while, he said: "Then please rest for a while, we need to discuss it! Don't worry, I will definitely send troops!" The envoy of the State of Qi bowed and said: "Thank you, King Shu, I will take my leave first!" After the envoy of the State of Qi left, Du Ping asked: "Ministers, do you think that my State of Shu should save the State of Qi?" Prime Minister Du Wu stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I thought that my State of Shu must save the State of Qi. First, the State of Qi is a vassal state of my State of Shu. Second, the State of Zhu dared to ignore my State of Shu and dared to start a war at will. This is a provocation to the suzerain state. Shu must send troops to teach it a lesson. Although the State of Ju has dispatched 60,000 troops and 100 chariots this time, our State of Shu can also dispatch them! " Du Ping nodded after hearing this, and asked General Du Ru: "General Du Ru, what do you think?" Du Ru stood up and said: "Your Majesty, I have heard that the State of Ju had carried out reforms a few years ago, and the strength of the State of Ju has greatly increased after the reforms. I think it is a bit difficult for our State of Shu to defeat the State of Ju. This time, the State of Ju has dispatched 60,000 troops and 100 chariots at one time, which shows that the State of Ju has become strong. If we fight, even if we win, it will be a miserable victory!" Du Ping heard the word "reform" and said: "The State of Ju is reforming, why didn't the ministers inform me? The State of Ju has carried out reforms without the consent of our State of Shu, which shows that it does not take our State of Shu seriously at all! ”

Prime Minister Du Wu stood up and said, "That's right, Your Majesty. Ju State appointed a man named Xu Xing as their national teacher, and appointed Ying Bao, who fled from Qin State, as prime minister. I thought that Ju State's reforms were just changes, and they were still not as strong as my Shu State, so I didn't pay attention to them. I didn't expect that they would become so strong after the reforms. This is my fault. ”

Du Ping hurriedly asked, "Who is Xu Xing?"

Du Wu replied, "This person is from the Agricultural School, and is very good at Agricultural theory. This person has 72 disciples, all of whom came to Ju State and served as officials in various parts of Ju State. Moreover, Ju State seems to use Agricultural theory as a national policy for governing the country!"

Du Ping sighed and said, "It's a pity that such a talented person didn't come to my Shu State. Everyone, what should I do next? ”

Du Ru said: "Your Majesty, I think that since Ju State can send 60,000 troops to attack Pi State, the country should be empty. Why don't we send troops to attack Ju State directly? After we destroy Ju State, we can gather the army to wipe out the Ju army hiding in Pi State!"

Du Ping nodded and said: "Okay, according to the general's words, send 50,000 troops to attack Ju State!"

——Your Majesty is wise!
