Xinzheng, the majestic capital of South Korea, finally fell after losing its last guardian. The envoys of the State of Qin were carrying the corpses. Zhao Kuo frowned and looked at the lifeless Zhang Ping under the city wall.
, was speechless for a long time. He also knew Zhang Ping. He had talked with him about the situation in the world. In his opinion, this Zhang Ping was definitely a qualified prime minister.
He saw it very clearly, and was also thinking of ways to make South Korea strong. Unfortunately, South Korea was surrounded by powerful enemies. It was impossible to rise with Zhang Ping's efforts alone. Zhang Ping probably understood this.
One thing...On the day Xinzheng was captured, Zhang Ping chose to commit suicide. He was a patriot who loved his country. This is natural and absolutely not wrong.
Unfortunately, in the face of the suffering of people all over the world, Zhang Ping's death is inevitable.
Only when the patriots of the six countries have shed their last bit of blood, and when the seven countries have become one country, can the people of the world escape the disaster of the war. All Zhao Kuo can do is to let the warriors take Zhang Ping's body down.
, and buried him. The Qin army immediately entered Xinzheng. Zhao Kuo stood on the military chariot and looked at the situation in the city. Of course, the people in the city did not dare to come out. The city seemed extremely quiet. Only Qin
The heavy footsteps of the soldiers.
The buildings in Xinzheng are different from those in Qin. They are built randomly. The architectural styles are very different. Moreover, the gap between the rich and the poor is also quite obvious. Outside a few simple and short courtyards, there are luxurious houses covering an extremely large area.
, the whole of Xinzheng has a sense of ruin, whether it is the roads or these courtyards. And his palace is very luxurious, even Xianyang Qin Palace cannot match it.
Zhao Kuo looked at the palace, which was more luxurious than the last time he came here. It seems that during these days, the King of Han did not stop the project of expanding the palace. After Zhao Kuo entered Xinzheng, he was
Ao and Wang Jian also took advantage of the situation and captured all the cities in South Korea. Within half a month, South Korea had all fallen, but the King of Han was hiding in Wei and did not dare to return to South Korea.
Zhao Kuo can already declare that Korea is destroyed.
The last bit of territory in South Korea fell into the hands of Zhao Kuo. From a strategic point of view, the coalition forces were defeated because Pang Gong failed to stop Zhao Kuo. However, South Korea did not have much land originally, and with the
Most of the terrain is suitable for chariots, which allows Qin's chariot troops to exert their full power. What Pang Gong is worried about is that Zhao Kuo will not stop because of this and will try to continue to advance.
As he thought, Zhao Kuo did not declare the end of the war after occupying South Korea. He first asked Lu Buwei to quickly set up counties and counties on the territory of South Korea, arrange officials, and govern the local area. At the same time, he gathered a large number of soldiers and headed towards
Attack in the direction of Zhongyang. Zhao Kuo is no longer young. He has become very determined. When he made the decision to destroy the Six Kingdoms, he no longer had any hesitation.
Especially after seeing the scene in South Korea, Zhao Kuo became more determined. He must unite all countries under one flag and end these hundreds of years of war. When Zhao Kuo came outside Zhongyang, Lian Po
It had destroyed the surrounding trees that could be used to make siege equipment, which delayed Zhao Kuo's attack, but it did not stop Zhao Kuo's attack.
Zhao Kuo looked at the huge map in front of him, looked in the direction of Zhongyang, and then looked at the two generals beside him. Meng Ao and Wang Jian both respected Zhao Kuo very much and stood beside him, waiting for his orders.
, although they failed to capture King Han, the entire territory of South Korea fell. It can be said that South Korea has been destroyed. This means that they followed Lord Wu Cheng and made contributions to the destruction of the country. Such contributions are enough to promote them to several levels of titles.
, and may even receive the honor of becoming a king.
All the soldiers of the Qin State were very excited, but Zhao Kuo was probably the calmest. Zhao Kuo looked at the map in front of him and then said to Meng Ao: "General Meng Ao, you can cross the river and go north to attack Zhao Guo directly.
Handan..." Zhao Kuo said seriously: "The coalition forces are stationed in Zhongyang and cannot hold out. We have no way to break through their defenses. If you go north to attack Handan, the coalition forces will definitely send troops to rescue..."
"General Wang Jian, you can take your own army and go south to bypass the Chu State to directly threaten Daliang and other cities. Your purpose is not to capture Daliang. Like General Meng Ao, you want to put pressure on the coalition forces and force them to send troops to rescue...
"
"What if they don't rescue?"
"Then attack the city." Zhao Kuo said calmly.
The two generals took the order and walked out of the camp. Zhao Kuo sat down and looked at the map in front of him. He sighed. Zhang Ping's leap made him unable to let go for a long time. He didn't know where he was.
How many people will be killed by him in this war he caused? He hates war so much, but in the end, the only way to save the world is war.
He doesn't know how much patriot blood will be stained on his hands. Is it worth it?
Zhao Kuo's mind quickly flashed to the people he had seen in various countries, the millions of people who were tortured by corvees, taxes, wars, and disasters. Zhao Kuo clenched his fists, all of which
All worth it.
When Meng Ao and Wang Jian left from two directions and started heading north and south, the coalition forces were a little panicked. They once again remembered that when Lord Xinling was still there, Zhao Kuo used this method to almost destroy the coalition forces, and
Now, he stretched out his two fists again. Can they stop him? Sitting in the tent, looking at the panicked generals, Pang Gong looked very calm.
He said: "When Lord Mafu and Lord Xinling fought at Hangu Pass, they were surrounded by Qin's land. Qin's army could get supplies everywhere and marched very fast. They caught the coalition forces by surprise. But now, what they want
The places they attack are all the lands of other countries. They are not familiar with the local conditions, and there is no way to obtain supplies at any time. Attacking the city will also consume a lot of materials, so you don't need to worry."
After hearing this, the generals calmed down a little, and then said: "Then we can't let the Qin people attack our city wantonly. Please send troops to intercept them."
Pang Gong shook his head and said seriously: "What the Qin people are best at is ambush the reinforcements. Their purpose of going out is not to capture the city, but to lure us into the rescue so that they can attack the reinforcements and weaken the strength of the coalition.
..After the defeat of Chu, our strength is no longer as good as that of Qin. We must not attack rashly." Pang Gong explained, and then said: "General Lian Po will stay, and the other generals will go back and continue to strengthen the city defense. Don't worry.
.”
The generals bowed down and bowed before walking out of the camp, leaving Lian Po alone.
"The war is not as easy as you say."
"Oh, yes... If we send troops to rescue, the reinforcements may not be the opponents of Meng Ao, Wang Jian and others. Ma Fujun may also take the opportunity to attack... But if we continue to hold on and let them attack the city, then our defense here
It doesn't make any sense... If Xiang Yan was still here, the matter wouldn't be so urgent..." Pang Gong said helplessly. Lian Po shook his head and said, "Who would have thought that a Korean general would betray Korea?
Woolen cloth?"
"I do have a way to save the disadvantageous situation." Lian Po said, Pang Gong looked at him, squinted his eyes, and asked: "Mr. Ma Fu?"
Lian Po nodded and said: "Kuo divided his troops between Meng Ao and Wang Jian. He must not have many troops under his command. This is a good opportunity. If we give up the garrison and attack with all our strength... as long as we can capture them alive
Kuo, the Qin people will definitely be defeated..." Pang Gong had already thought of this method. He said: "It's just that if Zhao's army encounters Ma Fujun in the wild... I'm worried that it will cause a mutiny."
"Welcome back to Mr. Ma Fu... That's all."
"What?"
"Tell the soldiers that in this battle, we must defeat the enemy and bring Mr. Ma Fu back to the Kingdom of Zhao."
The soldiers were ready to go out. The soldiers of Zhao State were in a particularly low mood. They gathered together according to the order, although they did not know where the army was going to attack. Just when they were getting ready, the general
When they came to them, they walked around the soldiers and said loudly: "The general has an order! Attack the Qin people! Welcome Ma Fujun back to the Kingdom of Zhao!"
"Rescue Lord Ma Fu from the hands of the Qin people!"
"Let Mr. Mafu return to his horse suit!"
"For Ma Fujun!!"
The effect of such encouragement was very obvious. The soldiers of Zhao State raised their heads one after another. Their expressions looked a little shocked and a little confused. After listening carefully several times, they became a little excited. Didn't Ma Fujun volunteer?
He who went on an expedition to other countries? He needs us to rescue him? Welcome Ma Fujun back to the Kingdom of Zhao! Once this voice enters their minds, it can no longer be forgotten.
Pang Gong was sitting on the military chariot. He looked at the Zhao soldiers everywhere and roared loudly with high-spirited expressions. The people of Wei were frightened by them.
Zhao's soldiers raised their heads and walked forward resolutely, walking faster and faster. Uncharacteristically, Pang Gong looked at them. There was no joy on his face, but he closed his eyes in pain.
At this moment, Xiang Yan had already fled to the border of Chu with the last defeated Chu troops. After being defeated, Xiang Yan returned to the battlefield several times and saved more Chu defeated troops through his bravery.
And brought them back to the border and let them return to Chu State. Xiang Yan showed inhuman bravery. When he rushed into the battlefield alone on horseback, he killed thirty or forty soldiers and forced back hundreds of Qin soldiers.
After the * team, the soldiers of Chu State already regarded them as gods.

They had never seen such a brave person. Xiang Yan could even throw arrows with his bare hands and kill an enemy twenty steps away. His fighting prowess made the Chu people who originally worshiped the strong feel filled with energy.
With courage, these broken troops followed Xiang Yan and organized several counterattacks, which caused a lot of trouble to the Qin people in South Korea. Xiang Yan was riding a horse, with a rough beard on his face.
That ferocious wound made him look even more majestic. His horse was surrounded by heads cut off by him. These were the heads of people with titles from the Qin State. Behind him, there were a group of people.
The Chu State's defeated army, these people did not look like a defeated army. They raised their heads high, as if they had just returned from the battlefield victorious. At the border of the Chu State, Xiang Yan's deputy general had already set up camp.
Xiang Yan brought back more than 20,000 defeated troops from the battlefield.
The number of soldiers stationed here has exceeded 40,000.
Seeing Xiang Yan returning here again with his defeated troops, the Chu soldiers stood up one after another. Even the injured soldiers struggled to get up and bowed in the direction of Xiang Yan. Xiang Yan looked at these people coldly.
This war made Xiang Yan grow up quickly. When he experienced the betrayal of his allies, watched his soldiers die tragically in front of him in despair, and watched the wounded soldiers commit suicide in order not to implicate him, he changed.
Already.
He was no longer thinking about how to obtain meritorious service, he was just thinking about how to kill his enemies quickly so as to reduce the casualties on his side.
Xiang Yan rested here for a few days, and then the envoys sent by the King of Chu came here.
The envoy sent by the King of Chu was no ordinary person, but Ling Yin Chunshenjun.
When Lord Chun Shen came here in a mighty manner with the reward materials, the soldiers here did not dare to raise their heads to look at him. They were defeated. Lord Chun Shen did not look like he was here to ask for guilt.
Sitting on the carriage with a smile, he asked his followers to distribute the supplies to the soldiers. He was also constantly chatting with these generals and praising their bravery. Chun Shenjun looked around and found General Xiang Yan.
Not here.
"Where's the general?"
"He is in the tent, waiting for you." A general replied. Chun Shenjun asked worriedly: "Is he injured?"
The general hesitated for a moment, nodded, and then shook his head.
After Chun Shenjun arranged the reward, he walked into the tent. As soon as he walked in, Chun Shen Jun was startled. He saw Xiang Yan put the long sword on his knees and lowered his head.
, closing his eyes tightly, Chun Shenjun hurriedly stepped forward and took away Xiang Yan's sword. Xiang Yan then opened his eyes, his eyes were full of bloodshot eyes, he looked at Chun Shen Jun,
Then he said: "General of the defeated army, please admit that I cannot get up to pay you respects."
"Now that you have arrived, I can leave with peace of mind. Please forgive me for my mistake."
"What do you want to do?!" Chun Shenjun shouted angrily, and he said: "The king did not blame you at all, and neither did I. South Korea's betrayal is not your fault... Why do you want to
Are you in a hurry to commit suicide? When the king heard about your bravery, not only was he not angry, but he sent someone to reward your family... Your three sons are also waiting for you at home."
"I personally went to meet your three sons, Qu, Liang, and Mao... Am I right?"
"He is still pestering me, saying that he wants to fight with you."
"How could you leave them, how could you leave the king, how could you leave the state of Chu?"
ps: I have never had such a severe cold in my life. It took medicine and injections to no avail. I was fine for one day after the injections, but continued to have attacks the next day. I coughed all night last night and couldn't sleep at all. I went there again today.
In the hospital, my cold has lasted for almost half a month and has not recovered. I feel like I really can’t hold on anymore.
