Chapter 193 Zhao Feng: Next, It Depends on How the King of Qin Rewards Me!

Hangu Military Camp!

"Report to the general."

"After three days of attack, the Wei army stationed in Liyang City has been defeated by our army."

"But Pang Wu didn't like fighting and led his troops to withdraw into Qiusha City."

A general came to the camp to report.

"This Pang Wu has made it clear that he will risk everything to stop our army."

"Delay our army's attack on Wei Capital as long as possible. Judging from the current battle situation, it will take at least three months for our army to attack Daliang, and it is not even enough." Li Xin said with an angry look.

"The Wu'an camp has already reached the Wei capital. If Hangu and Wu'an are allowed to join forces again, the Wei capital will be besieged by the two Daqin camps."

"Wei Wuji naturally issued a death order and asked Pang Wu to hold him back." Huan Yi said in a deep voice, with a relatively calm expression.

"General."

"I wonder if the General knows about the movements in the Wu'an camp?"

"For more than a month, there has been no movement in the Wu'an camp. It seems that they have given up the attack on Wei Capital and will wait until they join forces with our army before attacking again." Li Xin said in a low voice.

Huan Yi raised his eyes and glanced at Li Xin, then said: "Just say what you want to say."

"Since the Wu'an camp has not mobilized troops, why not send troops westward to deal with Pang Wu? In this way, our two camps can join forces to annihilate Pang Wu, and then join forces to attack the Wei capital." Li Xin. Said somewhat angrily.

Hear this.

Huan Yi frowned and stared at Li Xin, revealing a sense of displeasure: "When did you become so narrow-minded?"

"General..." Li Xin's expression changed.

"On the battlefield, what we compete for is military glory."

"This time, the king asked me to send troops to Hangu and Wu'an at the same time. In addition to joining forces to destroy Wei, he also wanted my two battalions to fight."

"Why do you think Wu'an Camp will give up its victory to help us?"

"Why do you think it's so natural?"

"If it was my Hangu camp that attacked the Wei capital this time, wouldn't you think of attacking the Wei capital with all your strength and instead divide your troops to support the Wu'an camp?"

Huan Yi said with a preaching tone.

Hear this.

Li Xin also had a look of embarrassment on his face, lowered his head and did not dare to say anything.

"Will be outside."

"Chapter changes based on the battlefield situation."

"Zhao Feng has been leading the army for several years. When did you see him give up halfway?"

"I want to come."

"He must have been planning a strategy to attack the capital of Wei during this month." Huan Yi said with certainty.

"But the intelligence says that the capital of Wei has been impregnably managed by Wei Wuji. Even people in the city have to go through hanging baskets to enter and exit. The city wall is extremely thick and the city gate has been sealed. There is no other way but to attack by force. What else can Zhao Feng do to break through? City?" Li Xin said with disbelief.

"Only by being in the middle of a battle can you know how to break it."

"Li Xin."

"Although you are not much older than Zhao Feng, you are far inferior to Zhao Feng."

"I know your thoughts. I am higher than the sky, and I am stronger than Wang Ben and Meng Tian."

"But you lack their composure and have a bit more arrogance that they don't have."

"If this goes on for a long time, you will definitely make a mistake."

Huan Yi said to Li Xin very seriously, this is naturally his identity as a general, and he is teaching Li Xin as an elder.

"I will remember the general's teachings." Li Xin responded immediately, but judging from his expression, it was obvious that he did not really take Huan Yi's teachings to heart.

Perhaps this is also due to his personality.

"Alas." Huan Yi shook his head and said nothing more.

Li Xin.

He was indeed a capable general in the Great Qin Army, but he happened to be a capable general, and he came from a wealthy family, so he also developed a arrogant character.

…

Qiusha City!

On the tower.

"General."

"The Qin army's offensive is becoming more and more fierce, but our army has been retreating. Not only have we lost a lot of soldiers, but our morale has been greatly damaged. There are also many deserters."

"In this case, I'm afraid we won't be able to stop Qin Hangu Camp for much longer."

One of the lieutenants faced Pang Wudao with a solemn expression.

"Your Majesty has an order."

"Our army is determined to stop the Qin army's eastward advance."

"Even if we fight to the last soldier, we must never retreat." Pang Wu looked serious, full of determination to coexist with the country.

"No." The deputy general bowed and said no more.

"How many troops do we have now?" Pang Wu asked in a deep voice.

The battle with the Qin army has been going on for nearly half a year. Not only is the food and grass consumption huge every day, but so are the losses in troops.

The Qin army's Hangu camp has 300,000 troops. Naturally, it is impossible to attack together at the same time, but to attack separately.

And he originally had an army of 250,000, so naturally he was stationed separately.

"Come back, General."

"Our army originally had 250,000 troops, but after nearly half a year, we fought with the Qin army."

"Our troops died, were wounded, and fled."

"Now our army has less than 150,000 men capable of fighting." A lieutenant general said sadly.

In less than half a year, nearly 100,000 troops were lost.

Moreover, his number of less than 150,000 may not have been calculated yet, but is only an estimate. He may only have 130,000 or 40,000 troops.

One can imagine how much the Wei army suffered.

"Pass my general's orders."

"Continue to garrison this city."

"Anyone who dares to leave his post without permission will be killed."

"If you dare to be a deserter, you will be killed."

Pang Wu immediately ordered and shouted.

"promise."

All the Wei generals dared not disobey.

Just when they were ready to retreat.

"Report."

"Report to the general."

"A Qin army appeared in the back city."

A scout ran over in panic and loudly reported.

"What did you say?"

"Qin army appears in the back city?"

Pang Wu frowned and his expression became panicked.

Although he was retreating steadily now, every time he retreated into a city, his entire army would set up a defensive line, still blocking the Qin army to the west, preventing them from getting close to the capital.

now.

The Qin army actually came from the back city.

Then there is only one possibility.

This Qin army came from their capital.

"Quick, go to the back city."

"General Cao, you guard the front city and don't give the Qin army an opportunity to take advantage."

Pang Wu said with a serious face.

Then without any hesitation, he walked towards the back city of the city.

On top of the city tower in the back city.

A Qin army with no more than two thousand people was lined up in front of the city.

They lined up in a row and did not launch an attack on the city where the Wei army was stationed.

"It is indeed the Qin army."

"It's impossible for them to get over the defense line I deployed, so there is only one possibility. They came from the capital."

"Could it be that something happened in the capital?"

Looking at the Qin army displayed in front of the city, Pang Wu's face became very ugly.

If the capital is really captured, then he and his hundreds of thousands of troops will be surrounded by the Qin army. What's even more frightening is that if the capital is really captured by the Qin army, then they will become rootless. It is impossible for Zhimu to compete with Qin.

Their king?

Their lord?

What is the situation now?

They don't know any of this.

"General."

"Did something really happen to Daliang?" a deputy general asked worriedly.

"With your Majesty here, my capital city is like an iron barrel and will never be broken by the Qin army."

"This may be a Qin army that came to test."

After Pang Wu thought for a moment, he said with great certainty.

Maybe he also had the idea of ​​emboldening himself.

certainly.

He also believed in Wei Wuji very much.

He was also present when Wei Wuji ordered the city to be repaired that day. The defense was so advanced and the city walls were so thick that they could not be broken through by manpower.

And this time!

The Qin army on the city wall moved.

I saw a Qin Qi galloping towards his city quickly, seemingly holding something in his hand.

"General."

"What does this Qin Bing want to do?"

"Do you want to shoot an arrow?"

General Wei asked on the side.

The archers on the city tower were also watching eagerly, aiming their bows and arrows at Qin Qi, who was galloping below.

"No one is allowed to take action without the general's order."

Pang Wu waved his hand to stop the surrounding soldiers.

And his eyes were staring at the city.

When Qin Qi approached the city.

It was Zhao Feng's personal guard commander, Zhang Ming.

"I don't know."

"Where is General Pang Wu of Wei State?" Zhang Ming raised his head and shouted to the tower.

"I am."

Pang Wu frowned.

Looking at Qin Qi in front of him, Pang Wu also felt uneasy in his heart.

"I am the commander of the bodyguards under General Zhao Feng of the Great Qin Dynasty."

"By order of the general, I give something to General Pang Wu."

Zhang Ming laughed.

He directly raised his hand and threw the imperial edict written by King Wei himself onto the tower.

"General, be careful."

The surrounding Wei generals were shocked.

But the imperial edict fell in front of Pang Wu very easily.

"Back off."

Pang Wu shouted coldly.

The uneasiness in his heart became stronger and stronger, but he also picked up the Wang Zhao from the ground.

"I am the king of Wei Dynasty."

Looking at the style of the imperial edict, he, as the general of Wei, naturally recognized it at a glance.

With a kind of uneasiness.

General Pang Wang Zhao slowly opened it.

Enter the eyes.

Pang Wu's face instantly turned pale, and then he closed Wang Zhao's words fiercely.

"Asshole."

"You actually used such a despicable trick to forge the edict of the King of Wei."

After closing the Wang Zhao, Pang Wu scolded Zhang Ming with a cold face.

"If you could even forge the edict of King Wei, your Kingdom of Wei would have perished long ago."

"This is written in the handwriting of your King of Wei, and it is stamped with the seal of your King of Wei."

"Your Kingdom of Wei is dead."

"Your capital has been captured by our great Qin, and your king has surrendered."

"General Pang Wu."

"A unnecessary sacrifice."

Zhang Ming said seriously.

The words fell.

Pang Wu's expression changed.

The faces of the many Wei generals and Wei soldiers around him all turned pale.

"impossible."

"Your Majesty is personally in charge of the capital, and we have an army of nearly 400,000 from the Wei Dynasty. No matter how strong your Qin army is, it will not be possible to defeat it in just one month."

"You are definitely deceiving us."

"We're not that stupid."

"The capital is stable and will never be broken by your Qin army."

"It is impossible for you to lose if you are wise..."

Pang Wu hasn't spoken yet.

The Wei generals around him started to quarrel one after another, as if they couldn't believe it.

"Your king has died."

"Most of the hundreds of thousands of troops you guarded in the Wei capital have perished."

"Your Daliang City is gone." Zhang Ming said solemnly.

"impossible."

"One month, even if every one of your Qin soldiers has the power to fight ten, you will never be able to break the city in one month."

"Daliang City cannot be opened by human power." A Wei general still shouted in disbelief.

"What if I tell you."

"It was not human power that broke through your capital, but the power of heaven and earth?" Zhang Ming sneered.

Then.

Zhang Ming took a sword from his horse's back.

He picked it up directly and threw it at the tower.

The sharp sword cut through the void.

With a sound of "Puff".

The sword pierced through the ground directly, pierced into it, and stood on the ground on the tower.

When he saw this sword.

Pang Wu trembled, and a sense of powerlessness emerged all over his body.

Just one glance.

He naturally recognized it.

This is Wei Wuji's sword, and it is also a magic weapon inherited from his Wei royal family era.

If you can't recognize it, then you are unworthy of being a general of the Great Wei.

"Your Majesty... Is it really already?"

Seeing this sword.

Even if Pang Wu couldn't believe it, his face turned pale at this moment.

"Your Lord challenged my general before he died."

"Before he challenged him, he said that all the Wei army would die in vain."

"I came here today."

"I am also following the order of the general, holding your Wei king's edict, ordering you to surrender with your army."

"This is also for the sake of our friendship as Chinese people, to avoid the hundreds of thousands of Wei soldiers and civilians from being slaughtered again."

Zhang Ming said loudly to Pang Wu.

At this moment, the fire has naturally reached, and it is natural to strike while the iron is hot.

Hearing this.

He was convinced of Wei Wuji's death.

Pang Wu seemed to have lost his last strength, his body swayed, and he almost collapsed to the ground. Fortunately, at the last moment, Pang Wu held the city wall, and barely supported himself without falling.

"How is the body of the Lord?" Pang Wu asked with a trembling voice.

"Don't worry, General Pang."

"For a loyal and righteous king, my general will not treat him badly."

"The general has buried the body of Lord Xinling in the Liangshan Palace, so that he can always see the former homeland of Wei." Zhang Ming replied immediately.

Wei Wuji has a very high prestige in Wei.

If his body is humiliated, it will make it difficult for the Wei army to surrender.

Of course.

Zhao Feng will not allow others to humiliate Wei Wuji, a loyal and righteous man.

Even if they are enemies.

Wei Wuji is worthy of admiration.

"I wonder where General Zhao Feng is?" Pang Wu asked again.

"My general is in the back." Zhang Ming did not hide anything.

"Alas."

Pang Wu sighed.

Turned his head.

Looking at the Wei soldiers on the tower, they were all living people. Many of them were ordinary farmers, but they were forcibly recruited.

And now.

Their life and death are in their own hands.

"Your Majesty."

"A meaningless sacrifice?"

"What kind of situation made you say this?"

"This sentence."

"When I left the capital, you said this." Pang Wu sighed in his heart.

If Zhang Ming hadn't said the four words "meaningless sacrifice", perhaps Pang Wu would still have a chance to stay in Weidu.

But it was these four words.

that made Pang Wu have to believe.

Because when the Qin Dynasty first started to mobilize troops, Wei Wuji once said that if one day, his Wei Kingdom really couldn't hold on, if one day he, Wei Wuji, died in battle.

If he couldn't bear it.

He would say four words, meaningless sacrifice.

After hearing these four words, Pang Wu didn't need to think about anything and surrendered.

"Please tell this general."

"Pang Wu wants to see General Zhao Feng."

Pang Wu sighed and said with determination.

"The general is behind, waiting for you at any time."

Zhang Ming said to Pang Wu, turned around and rode away.

Looking at Zhang Ming's figure.

Pang Wu turned his head and said in a weak voice: "Open the city gate."

"General."

"Are you...are you really going to surrender?"

Several Wei generals looked at him with a slightly changed expression.

"The capital has been breached."

"The king has died."

"Our army has been surrounded by the Qin army. What else can we do if we don't surrender?"

"Are we really going to die with these hundreds of thousands of soldiers?" Pang Wu said with a wry smile.

"But General."

"Is this a trick of the Qin army? Is there a trick?"

"This sword may be forged by the Qin army for the king."

"Maybe the capital has not been breached at all, and the Qin army is trying to deceive us?"

A Wei general said with doubt.

Others nodded one after another.

It was really hard for them to believe that the capital had been breached in just one month.

"The four words 'pointless sacrifice'."

"Your Majesty told me in secret."

"Your Majesty once said."

"If I heard these four words, I would surrender."

"Do you think I, Pang Wu, am really a coward?" Pang Wu said with a helpless smile.

Hearing this.

Everyone shut up.

Then.

The city gate opened.

Pang Wu staggered out of the city.

A group of generals in the city followed behind him.

When he arrived in front of the Royal Guards.

He saw Zhao Feng at a glance.

"Pang Wu of Wei."

"I am willing to surrender."

After arriving, Pang Wu knelt directly in front of Zhao Feng without any hesitation.

Seeing Pang Wu being so tactful, Zhao Feng's cold face also showed a smile.

The battle with Wei!

Perhaps it will be completely settled in a month.

"The Wei Kingdom will be destroyed."

"Next, it depends on how the King of Qin rewards me."

"At least I can be promoted one level."

"The road to the national lieutenant is also more stable."

Zhao Feng thought secretly in his heart.

At this level of official title, the only higher position is the national lieutenant.

If we use the words of many dynasties in later generations, it is the generalissimo of a country's army and the well-deserved first military official.

It's just that the resistance to this position is too great.

It requires many military exploits, military exploits that can suppress all voices.

And qualifications.

As for the title.

Zhao Feng is already a fifteenth-level title, second only to his father-in-law Wang Jian in the whole court, but after this battle, Zhao Feng's title can be on par with his father-in-law.

Of course.

Huan Yi may also be promoted one level.

But if you think about it carefully, if Huan Yi can also be promoted one level, Zhao Feng still has the possibility of being promoted two levels.

It depends on what the King of Qin does.

Next.

What Zhao Feng has to do is to dispatch troops to arrange hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Daliang City.

If we are not careful, a major epidemic will come, which will be a big deal.

Time flies!

Xianyang City!

"Good news."

"Great victory of Wei."

"Great victory of Wu'an Camp."

"Get out of the way, everyone get out of the way."

"Great victory..."

A rider rushed into the city outside Xianyang City.

...
