"Meng Wu, in today's battle, our Baijia army will have 15,000 men, and your Meng family army will behead more than 30,000 men. How about that?"
The hunched body of Bai Yifei could no longer hold up the red clothes and black armor. The hand wielding the red and white swords could barely hold the hilts. Although his voice was weak, it was unusually clear.
When Meng Wu heard what he said as he was about to die, he felt angry, "Bai Yifei! It's useless to talk more. Today will be your memorial day next year."
"Hehehe, Meng Wu, after today's battle, your Qin State's plan to march eastward will turn into a dream of the Spring and Autumn Period. I, Bai Yifei, have no regrets in my heart and deserved my death."
Bai Yifei held the red sword in both hands and finally mobilized all the internal energy in his body that had dried up, and a faint shadow of the blood sword slowly took shape.
"Haaah~" The blood sword slashed forward——
Meng Wu cut off the sword in his hand without hesitation and shouted: "Fire the arrow~"
"咻咻咻～"
"呲呲呲~"
Under the volley of thousands of arrows, Bai Yifei, whose oil had dried up, was shot through and turned into a sieve, with a wrinkled face and a stooped body. Only the red clothes and white hair could still see a trace of the former blood-clothed marquis.
Meng Wu glanced at the fallen body for the last time and ordered in a deep voice: "Clean the battlefield and march the whole army into the city."
Lu Yan put away his swords and looked at Wancheng in the distance with its gates wide open. Thinking about Bai Yifei's words before he died, an ominous premonition filled his heart.
"Report! Report~Report——"
The scout captain roared three times in a row and rolled off his horse. His eyes were full of fear, "General, Wancheng... Wancheng is already an empty city!"
The generals of the Qin army were shocked.
"What?!"
"What did you say?"
Meng Wu ran to the scout himself and pulled him up, "What happened in Wancheng?"
"There is no one in the city. There are several huge pits, and the blood has not yet dried. The whole city, everyone in the city is dead. The women died in one place, the men died in one place... They are all dead, all dead.
…”
When the scout said this, he was shaking all over, and his mind was filled with the scenes of the blood prison in Wancheng. Even though he had been on the battlefield for a long time, he vomited everything in his stomach at that time.
Bai Yifei massacred the city!
It turns out that his strength was due to slaughtering women all over the city to replenish his internal strength and achieve such a feat by force.
It is really unheard of for a city defender to take the initiative to slaughter his own city. Wancheng was completely slaughtered, and no real chickens or dogs were left. If Bai Yifei did it on his own initiative, no one in the world would believe it.
Meng Wu had to take the blame for the massacre of 200,000 people in the city. Qin's plan to move eastward also suffered a heavy setback.
Lu Yan's eyes were blank for a while while he was sitting on the horse. The negative impact of Bai Yifei's death plan on the Qin State was not known to take long to be eliminated.
In the first battle to pacify the Six Kingdoms, even if strategic locations were captured and the resistance forces of Han and Wei were destroyed, the number of anti-Qin people within the Six Kingdoms would increase sharply due to this incident. I am afraid only God knows the pros and cons.
.
…
News of the battlefield spread quickly.
Meng Wu led 100,000 meng troops to attack Nanyang, and faced Bai Yifei's 100,000 white-armed troops. At the cost of nearly 50,000 losses, he successfully destroyed the white-armed troops and beheaded Bai Yifei.
However, in the Battle of Wancheng, Mengwu angrily slaughtered 200,000 people in the city. The entire Wancheng 200,000 people were not left alive, which made countless people with lofty ideals in the world become angry and resist Qin. No one still calls Qin the "Land of Tigers and Wolves"
country", but directly changed its name to "Bao Qin".
The people in Nanyang counties and counties who were originally waiting for the wind to surrender raised the banner of resistance one after another. Meng Wu's return route was harassed by scattered people from all walks of life, which was extremely annoying.
Han Wangan, who planned to submit a letter of surrender to Qin, saw that the whole country was filled with indignation against Qin's massacre, so he stopped writing the letter of surrender and instead actively prepared for war, vowing to fight the Mengwu to the end.
As for the Wei State, needless to say, the country has already sold its iron and steel to support the Puyang battlefield.
The Qi State in the east, as the country with the most developed commerce in the world, formed an alliance with the Qin State during the previous war, and reaped huge profits from salt and iron. But as soon as the massacre of the city by the Qin State came out, all the scholars in the Qi State were gnashing their teeth.
A large number of anti-Qin forces emerged and began to oppose the pro-Qin forces. The attitude of the King of Qi became less firm.
Yan and Zhao were still killing their heads off, showing no signs of improvement at all, and did not pay attention to the war between Qin and Han. However, Yan Yi was no match for Le Cheng. He had the full support of the entire Yan Kingdom, and was suppressed in the early stage.
They enjoyed fighting, but in the following months of war, the situation was gradually regained by the other side. Today, the two countries are still fighting on the south bank of Yishui River.
The State of Chu had just experienced a war that was not considered a war. King Xiong Han of Chu heard about the situation of the war between Qin and Han, and immediately issued a letter of credence angrily denounced the State of Qin. Then he sent Ji's Shadow Tiger Army to resist the violent Qin and save the country.
The flag of South Korea entered South Korea unannounced, and its intentions were ulterior.
The situation in South Korea at this time, with the Qin State in front and the Chu State in the back, was already on the edge of a cliff. If you were not careful, it would be the end of the country.
Before it happened, no one thought it would develop to this point.
At that time, Lu Yan didn't care about the Puyang battlefield. He left the army behind and hurried back to Xianyang with Meng Wu's military report.
"What?! Bai Yifei! He died and left such a trouble for me."
Sure enough, when Ying Zheng heard the battle report, he immediately became furious. In addition to the revenge of Xinzheng's interception and killing that day, Bai Yifei actually dared to obstruct Qin Guodong's departure. Ying Zheng wished that he could whip him to death with his own hands to relieve the hatred in his heart.
"Sir, if the massacre of the city becomes a foregone conclusion, the hearts and minds of the people of the world will not be with our Daqin for at least twenty years. How can I talk about wiping out the six kingdoms and unifying the world?!"
Lu Yan was powerless to do anything about it, "Your Majesty, this matter has been finalized. No matter what explanation we, the Qin State, give or any evidence we present, the people of the six countries will not believe it."
Ying Zheng's narrow eyes were full of reluctance, "Sir, wouldn't it be that our plan of Da Qin Dong's coming out collapsed because Bai Yifei was not the middle way?"
"Great Qin's plan to go out to the east is determined by the country's comprehensive national strength. The six countries are so weak that it is the general trend for Qin to unify the world. The people of the six countries are not interested in Qin, so we can only postpone the unification of our army."
Hearing Lu Yan's explanation, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Huh! The original plan was that after taking over the three lands of Yuan Pu Yan and Nan Yang, he would start to recuperate and accumulate strength to wipe out the world. In this way, in terms of time, it makes sense.
"
Lu Yan smiled bitterly and said: "Your Majesty, once this incident comes out, I am afraid that the land of Nanyang will be unavailable. There are many resistance in Nanyang County, and it is not the aristocratic landowners, but the common people who are resisting. It is useless to occupy Nanyang at this moment.
Our great Qin State is powerful, but it cannot be governed stably, so it is useless."
"Well, sir, what you said makes sense. Let Meng Wu repair it first. The Meng family army suffered a big setback this time."
"Your Majesty, there is one more thing about General Mengwu."
"Sir, please speak."
"It's about General Meng Wu and his eldest son Meng Tian. I hope the king will transfer Meng Tian away and clear things up."
"Everyone knows about the Golden Fire Cavalry. Don't worry, sir, Meng Tian is a general that everyone likes, and I will definitely not let him sink like this." Ying Zheng seemed to be very concerned about Meng Tian's matter, and he assured decisively.
Then he asked about South Korea's follow-up, "Sir, how should we deal with the Chu State sending troops to South Korea?"
