The collapse of the Daliang city foundation was still ahead of schedule. It was not because of the Mohist's poor quality, nor because of Meng Tian's wrong guess.
On a stormy night, a dull sound startled everyone.
Countless torches were also lit at night, not only in Daliang City, but also in the Qin army camp.
Both sides are patrolling, trying to find the collapse of the city wall as soon as possible.
The people in the city also immediately tried to block the river water rushing into the city, but unfortunately they were so powerless.
After half a month of river erosion at the corner of Nancheng, the originally hard foundation became soft and could no longer withstand the tall city wall. Finally, with a loud noise, the city collapsed!
"Should we attack the city overnight?"
In the Chinese army's tent, all the generals looked at each other, hesitating whether to launch a night attack.
"It's windy and rainy, and the beam is right here. How can they repair the city wall in the rain?" Meng Wu said.
In fact, the others didn't want to attack at night, even if they couldn't tell the enemy from ourselves. It was windy and rainy, and with the river water pouring into the city, it was not a good choice to take the opportunity to attack.
But, after all, Meng Wu and Meng Tian are the main ones this time, and I just want them to speak out.
"Then let's wait until the rain passes and the sky clears up!" Wang Jian nodded in agreement.
"The city has collapsed!" The common people and concerned people in Daliang also knew that the wall of Nancheng had collapsed.
However, what the soldiers and civilians of Daliang did not expect was that the Qin army did not attack because of this, but instead blocked the water mouth again, causing the river water to return to its previous height.
"It is not easy to build a great city!" The generals of the Qin army knew very well that after the beams were broken, the garrison would still have to be left, and the people who would manage the Wei state would most likely be selected from among them.
At that time, the task of post-war reconstruction will also fall on them. If the beam is damaged too seriously, they will be the ones who have a headache in the future.
Therefore, after the city collapsed, the Qin army immediately narrowed the water mouth and restored it to its former appearance.
Three days later, the heavy rain stopped, and the Qin army once again set up their formation at the foot of Daliang City, ready to attack at any time.
Just as the Qin army was waiting in full formation, the south gate of Daliang opened on its own from the inside.
The King of Wei led the officials of the Wei State and walked slowly from Daliang City towards the Qin Army's camp.
"The State of Wei, this is it, is about to surrender!" Meng Wu, Wang Jian and others also understood what the State of Wei wanted to do.
I saw the King of Wei wearing a red official uniform, holding a tray in both hands. On the tray was a roll of red cloth and a large golden seal. You didn't need to guess, but you knew that these were the map and the national seal of the Wei State.
"My king invites the general of the Qin army to come forward and answer!" Even if the country is destroyed, the demeanor of a great country is indispensable. A general beside King Wei rode his horse ahead and came to the front of the Qin army and shouted.
Wang Jian, Meng Wu and others looked at each other. Finally, Wang Jian, Wang Ben and others took half a step back, letting Meng Wu and Meng Tian step forward to accept the surrender!
"The last general Meng Wu (Meng Tian) has seen the King of Wei!" Meng Tian and Meng Wu rode forward with their guards, carefully looking at the King of Wei and the officials of the Wei State, but did not dismount, posing as victors.
correct.
"The Kingdom of Wei...surrender!" Looking at Meng Wu and Meng Tian riding on the horse, King Wei could only swallow his anger and squeezed out three words through his teeth, no matter how unwilling he was.
These three words seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and his body that was originally standing had to kneel on the ground and lift the tray in his hand above his head.
Meng Wu glanced sideways at his son.
Meng Tian also knew what his father meant, and then he got off his horse and walked to King Wei. He took the tray nervously with both hands. It was not until he took the tray that he became firm.
"Wei State, surrender!" Meng Tian took out the national seal representing the Wei State from the tray, held it in his hand, and then raised it vigorously above his head, showing off to the Qin soldiers behind him.
"Wei surrender!" After a brief silence, hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Qin army all around also shouted excitedly, and the sound was louder than the other, spreading throughout the countryside.
"Enter the city!" A smile appeared on Meng Wu's face. With a wave of his hand, he let the vanguard army enter the city. At the top of the city, he lowered the banner representing Wei and replaced it with the black dragon banner representing Qin.
"The State of Wei...is dead!" The people of Daliang would never believe that the country that had dominated the Central Plains for hundreds of years was actually dead!
For a time, the entire beam was enveloped in an atmosphere of compassion.
They were once the overlords of the world, and they once beat Qin so hard that they wanted to run into the mountains of Longxi to eat chaffy vegetables!
They once looked at the Central Plains and looked around, and no country dared not to follow them!
They were once the strongest country among the Three Jins and controlled the richest land in the Three Jins!
They...have subjugated their country!
"This is the Daliang Palace!" Meng Wu, Wang Jian and others led the army into the Daliang Palace, and couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the pavilions and pavilions of the Wei Palace.
There are five steps to the first floor, and ten steps to the pavilion; the waist of the corridor is narrow and the eaves are high; everyone is fighting for the terrain. The luxury of the Wei Palace also far exceeds that of the Qin Palace.
When the Qin State established its capital in Xianyang, it was also the time when the Wei State moved its capital from Anyi to Daliang. At that time, the Wei State was the overlord of the Central Plains and a great power that forced the Qin State to the point of near-annihilation.
Therefore, the luxury of the Wei palace is naturally higher than that of Qin.
When it comes to the luxury of royal palaces, none of the seven kingdoms in the world can compare with Wei.
It's a pity that today, the Kingdom of Wei died! This palace, which represented the utmost luxury of the Kingdom of Wei, will also become the palace of King Qin!
"Send a message to Xianyang and ask your Majesty!" Meng Wu and Wang Jian looked at each other. The war has been decided. The next step is to clean up the remnants and take control of the entire Wei Kingdom.
So, a group of swan geese set off from Daliang again and galloped towards Xianyang.
Less than three months after Han was destroyed, Wei also fell one after another and the country was destroyed.
This is something no one could have imagined, especially the Chu State!
In the royal city of Shouchun, Xiong Qiye had just taken control of the royal power and was mobilizing his army to go north to support Han and Wei. However, he did not expect that Han and Wei had already fallen one after another.
"Qin has just destroyed Han and Wei, which is a good thing for us!" Xiang Yan could only make fun of himself and said insincerely.
"Then the army will go south and destroy Dragon City!" Xiong Qi didn't say much else.
If Han and Wei could hold out until the Chu army arrived, then their first priority would naturally be to rush to the aid of Han and Wei, but Han and Wei could not hold on, and it would be useless for them to send more troops.
After the Qin State destroyed Han and Wei, its short-term task was to stabilize Han and Wei and consolidate the territory it had just conquered. It could no longer send troops to support Dragon City!
Therefore, they could also use this short time difference to completely conquer the territory of Chu State, and then stand ready to wait for the Qin army to move south!
"Here!" Xiang Yan nodded and took the tiger talisman, and then left the royal city, taking the reorganized army of 200,000 people and setting off in a mighty manner.
