Seeing Zhou Shi being merciless and asking his personal guards to arrest people, Wu Chen couldn't help but become anxious: "Brother Zhou, wait a minute, I have something to say."
Zhou Shi waved his hand and signaled the guards to retreat first, turned around and stared at the military minister and said: "King Zhao, please speak."
Wu Chen rolled his eyes and said: "Everyone is here to attack Qin. I suddenly feel that Brother Zhou's second proposal is very good. In this way, Brother Zhou will let me go back, and I will mobilize the troops according to Brother Zhou's wishes."
Send generals to attack Hangu Pass with all their strength tomorrow morning."
"As Brother Zhou said, after ten days, no matter what the result is, Brother Zhou will give me the antidote. I am severely poisoned, and Brother Zhou is not afraid that we will not keep our promise. I wonder what Brother Zhou thinks?"
Zhou Shi thought for a moment, then suddenly smiled and said: "No, in order to prevent King Zhao from having the antidote, I want to take this opportunity to escape. Before I achieve my goal, I have no intention of letting you go. Even if I deploy troops, I will not let you go."
It needs to be under my control, otherwise, I will feel uneasy."
Xiang Liang couldn't help but said: "In this case, how can Brother Zhou make us believe that after Brother Zhou achieves his goal, he will let us go instead of killing people to silence us?"
Tian Rong said with an ugly face: "Brother Zhou has already plotted against me once, how can we dare to put our life and death in Brother Zhou's hands?"
The smile on Zhou Shi's face faded, and he said faintly: "Whether you believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me. I only intend to give you two choices. Either cooperate with me fully, or kill the three of you and leave Zhao Qichu's army behind."
Attract the attention of the Qin army here, and then lead my Zhang Chu army to leave safely."
"I don't want to interfere with how you choose the three, because no matter how you choose, I won't lose anything. The only one who loses is you."
The three warriors looked at each other and their expressions became extremely ugly. How could they trust Zhou Shi, an ambitious man, to be so cowardly?
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Zhou Shi waved his hand to the guards to come forward and said calmly: "I hope the three of you will make a decision before tomorrow morning, otherwise don't blame yourself for being ruthless."
The sixth-grade personal guard stepped forward, supported the three of them, and walked out of the camp.
When they reached the gate of the camp, Wu Chen suddenly said: "Wait a minute."
Then he took a long breath and sighed: "You win, I promise you, I will order the Zhao army to attack the city early tomorrow morning."
Tian Rong continued: "Qi Guo agrees."
The two men's eyes couldn't help but fall on Xiang Liang. Xiang Liang was silent for a few breaths, then he gritted his teeth and said, "The Chu State has no objection."
A smile appeared on Zhou Shi's face and he applauded: "The three of you are indeed people who understand current affairs. I admire you. Come, please serve these three adults well and have a rest. Don't be negligent."
…
In the early morning of the next day, Zhoushi's personal guards carried military minister Xiang Liangtianrong's military order and went to Zhao Qichu's army camp respectively, summoning three generals to come to Zhoushi camp to discuss matters.
When General Zhao Qichu saw his master's order, although he was a little confused as to why Zhang Chu's soldiers came to deliver the message, he had no intention of resisting the order and hurried to the Zhoushi camp with a few personal guards.
After everyone had arrived, Zhou Shi arrived belatedly with three people who looked normal.
According to Zhou Shi's instructions, the military ministers Xiang Liang and Tian Rong issued military orders to their generals to attack Hangu Pass.
In view of the fact that Zhao Qichu's army had different commanders and it was difficult to coordinate in a unified manner, under the witness of all the generals, a strategy was decided:
Zhao State was the first to attack the city, and Zhao Qichu took turns to attack, each attacking Hangu Pass for one day.
After receiving the military order, these generals did not feel anything unusual and hurriedly got up and planned to leave.
Xiang Liang suddenly said in a loud voice: "Listen to the Chu State. If this general dies unfortunately, the murderer will definitely be Zhou Shi. When you go back, don't forget to inform the Chu State subjects that the Chu State and Zhang Chu will fight until death."
A group of generals from the Chu army immediately stopped and looked at their general with a confused look on their faces, and then looked at Zhou Shi in confusion.
I saw Zhou Shi looking at Xiang Liang with the same surprised expression.
Xiang Liang laughed and said, "It's nothing. I was just joking with Marshal Zhou. Let's prepare for the siege."
Seeing that his men did not move, Xiang Liang quickly scolded: "Why don't you go quickly?"
After all the generals left, Zhou Shi's face immediately darkened: "General Xiang, what do you mean?"
Xiang Liang said calmly: "Without him, I can't trust Brother Zhou. If I am unfortunately killed by Brother Zhou, I will have someone seek justice from Brother Zhou on my behalf."
Zhou Shi snorted coldly and said: "General Xiang had better not create any trouble, otherwise even if he wants to become an enemy of the Chu State, I will kill General Xiang first."
Speaking of this, Zhou Shi showed a ruthless look on his face: "No big deal, I will personally lead the army and let your Chu country destroy it again."
Xiang Liang was also not to be outdone: "Brother Zhou, you can give it a try and see if everyone in the Chu Kingdom will frown?"
Zhou Shi just smiled and stopped answering. Instead, he sent his personal guards to watch Zhao Jun send troops to attack Hangu Pass.
Half an hour later, the heavily armed Zhao army, carrying siege equipment, gathered in front of Hangu Pass, ready to launch an attack at any time.
…
The unusual movements of the rebels quickly attracted Lin Ze's attention. He immediately guessed that Zhou Shi had already learned about the fall of Yangzhai and was planning to take another chance.
Lin Ze immediately ordered the troops on the city wall to be on alert, stringing their bows and arrows, loading their trebuchets, and placing fire oil cans at random, waiting for the rebels to attack.
He also ordered the reserve team to be on standby under the city wall, ready to go up to the city wall for support at any time.
After experiencing a guarding, these soldiers seemed more calm, and got busy according to Lin Ze's orders in an orderly manner.
The sound of war drums sounded, and 20,000 Zhao troops formed a formation, with shields in front and ladders behind, and rushed over quickly.
After Zhao Jun entered the shooting range, Lin Ze immediately ordered the release of arrows and trebuchets. As the arrows and boulders fell, blood splashed in the rebel group.
After paying thousands of casualties, Zhao Jun successfully put the ladder up on the city wall and began to climb up the ladder.
Lin Ze immediately changed his strategy and ordered the rolling logs to be released.
A rolling log fell down the ladder, and a stream of rebels were rolled down the ladder and fell to the ground. There were countless wailing disabled people.
A quarter of an hour later, the general commanded by Zhao Jun saw that the offensive was somewhat weakened, and immediately waved his flag, and another 20,000 troops rushed towards the city wall.
Lin Ze still calmly commanded the soldiers, killing and injuring the enemy as much as possible.
Half an hour later, Lin Ze felt that the physical strength of the original 20,000 defenders had seriously declined, and immediately ordered the reserve army to take over and replace them.
The war was in a state of turmoil.
Li Xin, who was standing behind Lin Ze, looked at such an siege scene and his body trembled slightly, not with fear, but with excitement.
This was the first time he had seen such a huge siege scene, and his blood was boiling with excitement. He wanted to immediately lead his army and rush out to kill them.
Li Xin, who had always been a little dissatisfied with Lin Ze, began to gradually improve his sense of Lin Ze when he saw Lin Ze calmly and calmly defending the enemy.
However, Lin Ze was unaware of Li Xin's psychological changes and concentrated on directing the war.
Suddenly, two figures among the rebels rose from the ground, flew up to the city wall, and struck out boldly, knocking dozens of Qin soldiers to the ground.
Two sixth-grade warriors? Lin Ze frowned slightly, and smoothly pulled out the long sword from the waist of the bodyguard beside him, and struck the two sixth-grade warriors head-on with one sword each.
A line of blood appeared on their foreheads and they fell to the ground, dying.
At this point, the opponent never let the sixth-grade warrior take action again.
This battle lasted until dusk and ended with the Zhao army withdrawing their troops.
