Chapter 81 Don't See Outsiders
Dear book friends, my computer was malfunctioning yesterday, so this chapter only has 3,000 words, please forgive me. I'm sorry, I'll make up for it later.
Lv Ze and Lv Shizhi showed off his might under the city and shouted: "Lu Qi, come down and surrender quickly, otherwise you will die without a burial place in a while. Come down and surrender quickly."
Lu Qi turned his face and said to the deputy generals around him, "Have the person sent to deliver the letter to King Chu, come back?" One of the deputy generals shook his head and said, "The stones sink to the sea, there is no news at all, I guess he may have been killed."
Lu Ze's horse and infantry were neatly arranged outside the Ximen! Two ghost howls suddenly came from the neat queue, and two soldiers wearing Chu army uniforms were dragged and dragged out of the queue by Sheng.
Lu Ze laughed, "See it, Lu Qi, the person you sent out has been captured by our army. If you can't send your news, Wancheng is just an isolated city, so you should surrender quickly!"
Lu Qi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said tremblingly, "What should I do? What should I do?" The deputy general next to him hurriedly came up and said, "It's easy, sir, let's surrender as before!" The deputy general said it very easily, saying "surrender" was as easy as saying that eating water was like eating.
Lu Qi turned his head and said viciously, "You know that surrendering is not our family's business, who knows whether they accept it or not!"
The deputy general said timidly, "You can send someone out of the city to talk to them." Lu Qi thought to himself, there is nothing to do with talking. Even if you are kind now, you won't be sure that your face will change drastically that day and you will not recognize others.
"I used to be a general of Qin, but later surrendered to Liu Ji. According to Qin's laws, I surrendered to the enemy at the last minute and wanted to destroy the nine clans, and I could not surrender."
Under the city tower, war drums roared and horns sounded. The Qin army's rear army successively increased, and more and more soldiers were soldiered. A chariot, surrounded by hundreds of heavy infantry soldiers holding swords and spears, passed through the alley between the square formations and came to the city.
A young general on the chariot had a sharp mouth and a monkey cheek, a noble body, and a golden armor. Wang Zhu wore the bulletproof vest inside the armor, which looked more majestic.
"Lu Qi, I am the King of the Great Qin, Ying Hu Hai. Now I am blocking the 500,000 soldiers under the city and announcing that as long as you give up resisting the surrender of the city, I will not blame you for your past and be crowned as a Marquis of Wancheng. You will think it through carefully."
"The king - it's really the king -" Lu Qi seemed to have seen Qin Ershi before, and his tone of speaking was a little trembling; "King, what you said is true."
Wang Zhu said, "I speak in a golden and jade manner, and I will never go back on my word. You can open the city and surrender quickly!" Lu Qi said decisively. "No, unless the king writes a decree and gives it to me, I will never be held accountable." Wang Zhu called Shusun Tong behind him impatiently; "Hurry up, write it for him, there are so many destructive things."
The order was sent to the top of the city. Lu Qi opened the bamboo slips and looked up and down, and was ecstatic: "Hurry, open the city gate and welcome the king into the city. Why are you still standing there? Whoever dares to disrespect the king, I will kill his whole family."
The general just now muttered, "Sir, didn't you say you must never surrender?" Lu Qi said angrily, "You know, this is called one time and another. Go and open the door."
Wang Zhu drove into the city with a large group of people. Lu Qi knelt on the edge of the road, arched his body, and climbed to the car in panic like a dried shrimp, shouting, "The criminal Lu Qi bowed to the king!"
Wang Zhu thought to himself that there was no need to turn against him now just now, and he would be dealing with this villain in a few days, so he waved his hand in a pretentious manner, "Get up, get up."
Lu Qi thanked him for his gratitude and followed Wang Zhu to the government office. After Wang Zhu sat down, he smiled and said, "What I said just now will definitely be fulfilled. I will never be able to make Lord Lu the Marquis of Wancheng. Now I will be granted Lord Lu the Marquis of Wancheng. However, it is not the time to enjoy peace now. You marquis will live in Guanzhong first. When I quell Xiang Yu's rebel thief, it is not too late to come back to enjoy yourself."
Lu Qi's heart trembled, and he immediately realized that he had been fooled. Qin Ershi was going to cross the river and destroy the bridge! But at this moment, the Qin army's large group of troops had entered the city, and the situation was completely under Qin Ershi's control. He suffered a great loss and did not dare to say anything. He kept nodding and bowing; "Abide by the order, follow the order."
After only one day of rest, Wang Zhu sent a large army to attack the counties and counties of Wancheng. Chen Xi was ordered to leave Yiyang and attack Henei. Gao Qiuyun, the prefect of the Hanoi of Qin, has been stationed in Handan in Zhao State on the north bank of the Yellow River, ready to cooperate with the main force to fight back home. As soon as Chen Xi's army arrived, Gao Qiuyun could not wait to cross the Yellow River and surrounded the city.
Wang Zhu personally led a large army out of Yejun Rucai County and went north to capture Yingyang and Yingchuan. The one who guarded Yingyang was the Korean general Zhao Li. Since Zhao Li occupied Yingyang, he knew how to eat, drink and have fun every day. He thought that the Qin army was defeated, and he did not dare to fight back for a year or two. When he heard that Wancheng and Yejun were captured, he urgently arranged defenses and sent people to inform King Zheng Chang of Han, it was too late, and Wang Zhu's army had already arrived at the city.
Yingyang and Yingchuan were the first generation, belonging to Korea in the Spring and Autumn Period, and later became the Yingchuan County, which was unified into the Qin Dynasty. It was one of the best strategic places and often stationed heavy troops. However, now it has already become most of the ruins.
In April 207 BC, Liu Bang, the elder brother, once brought his gang corps to Yingchuan. The soldiers and officials of Qin State vowed to resist to the death. The county magistrate organized a group of people to curse Liu Bang as a rogue, a gangster, and a hooligan in the city. He made him greedy for money, lust, collect protection fees, lend usury, resell arms, and sell all the deeds of selling. Liu Bang was so angry that he almost fainted and led his troops to attack the city tower and massacred all the soldiers and civilians in Yingyang City. Tens of thousands of people were left, and the mother and daughter were all killed by their soldiers. It really corresponds to the old saying, "What good people can there be in the gang!"
Although Zhao Li was ordered by King Han Zheng Chang to be the prefect of Yingchuan here, he was actually less than 20,000 people, plus less than 10,000 soldiers and civilians in the entire county, it was actually an empty city. Zhao Li was very tactful and knew that he could not defend it, so he abandoned the city and fled. Zhao Li, when he ran to Yangdi to report to Zheng Chang, he was still honest and remarked, "What's the matter with him to guard an empty city? It was wasting the lives of soldiers. King, this is not called escape, but this is retreating." Although Zheng Chang was angry, he was not at the moment when the enemy was in front of him, so he couldn't say anything, so it was left alone.
Wang Zhu sent troops to attack Wuping, Xuchang, and ancient cities everywhere. These nearby counties were annexed by the Qin army and quickly swept across the entire Yingchuan County. That is, the population of Yingchuan County was a bit miserable, and such a large place was less than 50,000.
A few days ago, Yuan Sheng was ordered to meet Han* to attack Zheng Chang. These days they also achieved some results near Songshan, and the army happened to be stationed near Yingchuan. Yuan Sheng heard that the King of Qin was about to arrive in Yangdi, and the first thing he did was to send troops to cut off all the roads from Yangdi to Western Chu, so that Zheng Chang could not inform Xiang Yu of the news.
After the two armies met, Wang Zhu met with the long-known Han*. Although Han* had the same name and surname as Han Xin, his ability was 108,000 miles away from Han Xin. When Wang Zhu saw him, two words popped up in his head - corrupt scholar. As expected, as soon as he started talking, Han* said, "It's a good thing," and his head was swollen. He thought, if I had known you were like this, I would have supported Zheng Chang."
Wang Zhu hurriedly interrupted Han*'s words; "King Han, King Han, please listen to me!" Han* was just saying; "King Qin, I think that the way to govern the country lies in lenient politics and loving the people. Before the laws of Qin - please speak."
Wang Zhu put aside the irrelevant and asked a substantial question; "How many people are there in the hands of King Han now!" Han * was a little ashamed when he heard this and said with a blushing face; "To be honest, I only have 10,000 people in my hands--" Han * saw Wang Zhu's expression of sighing on his face, and hurriedly said; "The population in South Korea is too small!" He thought to himself, it is really difficult to recruit men here.
Wang Zhu thought to himself that if he wanted to find a way to turn South Korea into a "municipality" of Daqin, he could not hand it over to this impartial Han*. Wang Zhu felt sneered in his heart, but he said seriously on the surface; "So after conquering Yangdi, can the King of Han resist the attack of Western Chu and protect his own territory!"
Han * had been trying to make a lot of effort to say something, but when he thought of the terror of the Western Chu Army, he still hung his head and said, "From the current force, I am afraid I can't defend it."
If you can't defend it? That's easy! Wang Zhu's tone couldn't help but become lively; "King Han, I follow the heavens and attack the violent Chu in order to let the princes of all countries live a stable life. Since the King of Han is in trouble, I will not stand by. After conquering Yangdi, I will leave 30,000 troops to garrison here."
Han * couldn't believe his ears. The King of Qin was so generous that he sent 30,000 troops at once. However, Wang Zhu's next words made him feel very uncomfortable: "However, these Qin troops are used to being spoiled on weekdays, and many people are dissatisfied with the commander. I mean to keep General Dong Yi and assist the king in governing these troops. I don't know what the king wants."
Of course, Han* was unwilling to do so, but what could he do? At this moment, if he didn't get the support of the Qin army, he might not even be able to do this nominal King of Han.
"This - thank you for your thoughts!"
Wang Zhu smiled sinisterly, "King Han must not be polite. Are we all a family? Our common enemy is Xiang Yu. Don't be dissatisfied with me in the future. Just ask for food and send someone to send a message."
