Montenegro hurriedly got up to check, and sure enough, a few Wei soldiers were covered with mud and were taken to Montenegro's tent.

A few Wei soldiers were disgraced and dirty. Fu Di said to the mountain: "We heard that the Black Mountain general outside the West Gate is kind to the surrendered troops, and the defenders inside the West Gate are willing to lead the people out of the city to surrender, please allow the general!" ”

"How many of you are coming? Who are your generals? Montenegro asked.

"All the defenders of the East Gate are about 30,000 people! Our oldest is the commander of the thousand, the general and the lieutenant live in the palace, and they have not been seen for ten days! Wei Bing said.

"Go back and tell your people, let him come with peace of mind, I immediately ordered the whole army to cook, and those who come have food and meat, and they are full." Montenegro said.

"Thank you, General! We'll go back to our lives right away! Several Wei soldiers received Montenegro's promise and immediately went back.

The military commander Sima immediately went to inform the general. All the guys are cooking! The cavalry retreated two miles and stood by. Montenegro ordered. Although it is judged that they are sincere surrender, they cannot be unguarded.

After a while, Wang Ben came to the camp in Montenegro with dozens of military officials and hundreds of escort horses. After a few people saluted each other, a military official came to report that the east gate had been opened, and the Wei army was out of the city!

Montenegro and Wang Ben came to the camp with several generals, and saw a large group of men and horses in the city, led by dozens of people riding slowly, followed by infantry. Those who have experience in leading troops know at a glance that they are coming to surrender, because a sneak attack in such a formation is equivalent to suicide.

"Pass my order, all Wei soldiers, put down their weapons and take off their armor. Eat first and then register, those who wish to go home will be fed home, and those who are willing to stay are also welcome! Wang Ben ordered.

The surrendered Wei soldiers continued to come out of the city, far exceeding the 30,000 mentioned last night. Wang Ben immediately summoned a commander who had surrendered, and when he asked, he learned that the troops of the other city gates had also come out and surrendered, at least more than 100,000. Wang Ben hurriedly transferred more men and officials from each battalion, and set up rows of military stoves outside the west gate, and the aroma of cooking rice and stewed meat filled everywhere.

It wasn't until noon that the surrendered Wei army came out! There were 150,000 people in one count. Many generals came to ask for orders to lead troops into the city, but Wang Ben refused! He believed that the tens of thousands of people in the city would definitely not hold out and would soon come out and surrender.

At noon, the people of the city began to help the old and the young, and went out of the city in groups, many of them had not eaten a hot meal for a long time, and their faces were full of sickness. Wang Ben immediately ordered the people to join their relatives after eating, and those who did not have relatives were arranged by the officials to resettle the nearby counties. Another messenger was sent into the city, demanding that the King of Wei leave the city tomorrow and surrender, otherwise the Qin army would begin to attack the city the day after tomorrow.

In the evening, the envoy came back and said, "The king of Wei has promised to leave the city tomorrow and surrender." The dwellings in the city collapsed, and the inner side of the outer city wall almost completely collapsed. The mud on the street was more than a foot deep. The higher Intramuros had little impact. There are still 30,000 royal city guards in the inner city, and 20,000 Wei warriors! ”

"Wei Wushu!" When the generals in the tent heard these three words, they immediately came to their senses, and they asked for battle to fight with 20,000 Wei soldiers. The heavy infantry general Mai asked for battle and said: "The last general intends to lead 10,000 soldiers under his command to fight a decisive battle with 20,000 Wei soldiers!" If you can't defeat Wei Wushu in a battle, you are willing to come and see you! ”

There is a reason why Qin Jun wants to compete with Wei Wushu the most. In 389 BC, Qin Huigong sent 500,000 troops to attack the Yin and Jin of Wei. Wu Qi personally led 50,000 Wei soldiers who had just been trained, plus 500 chariots and 3,000 cavalry to defeat the Qin army, which was the famous Battle of Yin and Jin. Wei Wushu became famous in one battle, and won more than ten battles with Qi and Chu, achieving the myth of Wei Wushu's invincibility. In the early days of King Wei Hui, Pang Juan led Wei Wushu to win several battles with Han, Zhao, Chu, and Qi, expanding the territory for Wei for hundreds of miles, and pushing Wei to the peak of strong victory! But the good times didn't last long, and Pang Juan was soon defeated by Sun Bin and lost his life in Maling. In 341 BC, Wei Ying led 50,000 new Qin troops to annihilate 50,000 Wei soldiers in a battle, and the Warring States began to enter the era of Qin Ruishi. Although Wei Wushu was rebuilt many times and defeated by the Qin army many times, from Wu Qi defeated the Qin army and became famous, to being eliminated by Wei Ying and falling off the altar, he dominated the Warring States for 50 years.

Wang Ben knew the rise and fall of Wei Wushu, waved his hand to the generals, and said: "When Xinling Jun presided over the state affairs, although Wei Wushu was retrained and his combat power was also improved, he had not yet recovered his previous combat effectiveness. When King Wei was on vacation, he appointed some sycophants as generals. Wei Wushu is already dead in name! Defeating such an army is not a big deal! If they don't surrender tomorrow, it's not too late to ask for another battle! When the generals heard this, they did not rush to fight again.

The next day, 20,000 Wei soldiers and 30,000 palace guards really went out of the city and surrendered! This disappointed many Qin soldiers. Wang Ben and Montenegro were discussing the friendship after the war, and the military officials came to report: "General Yu, there are more than 100 Wei soldiers who refuse to hand over their swords, how to deal with them?" ”

"Let's go, let's go and see together!" Wang Ben said to Montenegro.

The two of them walked out of the tent together and came to the gate outside the camp, where hundreds of black Qin soldiers were surrounding a hundred or so soldiers, who were obviously stronger than the others. The armor had been taken off, but everyone was holding an ancient sword with a dark black scabbard in their arms, standing upright, silent, and without fear on their faces.

"All Qin soldiers put away their weapons!" Wang Ben commanded loudly. The soldiers of the Qin army screamed, all their swords were put into their sheaths, and they consciously made a way, and hundreds of pairs of eyes were still staring at the more than 100 soldiers.

"Give them to me!" Montenegro said to Wang Ben.

Wang Ben nodded and agreed! said, "Be careful! ”

With a wave of his hand, Montenegro ordered the surrounding Qin troops: "All disperse, don't surround them." The Qin soldiers immediately dispersed and stared at it from afar!

"May I see your sword?" Black Mountain smiled at one of the leading warriors and asked.

The warrior had a short black beard and a burly and strong body, and judging by his hairstyle, he should be a thousand-commander. He hesitated, then solemnly handed the sword in his arms to Black Mountain with both hands.

The sword is a bit heavy, the scabbard is made of hardwood and cowhide, without any decoration, and when held in the hand for a long time, the scabbard has been soaked in sweat to oil black, and the general smell is strange. Pulling out the sword, it was a heavy iron sword, although it was polished and shiny, there were already many knocks and small chips on the sword, and it looked like it had survived countless battlefields for generations. In terms of market value and practicality, it is far inferior to Qin Jun's newly raised fine iron heavy sword. Montenegro took a closer look and saw that near the hilt of the sword, there was the word "Wu" on one side and the word "Wu" on the other. After reading the sword, Hei immediately understood the reason why these people were reluctant to put down the sword.

Then he said to the people, "I know the place of this sword in your hearts. Treat it as your own siblings. I honor you and the sword in your hand. But Qin Fa strictly encourages you, you must hand over the weapons in your hands today. But I can keep these swords for you, and I'll bring them back to Tao. Let my officers give you vouchers. After the spring of the coming year, you can go to Taocheng to find me to retrieve your matching sword! What do you think? Black Mountain said, and returned the sword to the short-bearded man beside him.

"May I ask the general's name?" The short-bearded man asked.

"My name is Black Mountain, I am the county guard of Tao County, and I am also the deputy general of the general, tell me your name!" Montenegro said.

"Thank you, General Montenegro! My name is Wei Jun, and we are willing to hand over our swords to the general! The short-bearded man arched his hands and said, and when he looked up again, he was already in tears.

Montenegro called the military officials behind him and told them to help these soldiers register in detail, and the more than 100 swords should be carefully kept and brought back to Taocheng.

Montenegro returned to the big tent, and Wang Ben asked the reason. Montenegro introduced the beginning and end of the matter and how to deal with it to Wang Ben in detail.

In that year, Wu Qi captured 500 miles west of the Qin River, and King Wen of Wei set Hexi as Xihe County, and ordered Wu Qi to serve as the Taishou of Xihe and be responsible for reforming the Wei army and training the new army. Wu Qi trained the new army and ordered that the new army could become a military soldier only if they passed the assessment. A soldier can not only get an iron sword, but also give a knight a first-class, with a hundred acres of land and three houses. In the early Warring States period, iron swords were far more precious and rare than bronze swords. It is not easy to become a military pawn of Wei. The soldiers were required to wear three layers of heavy armor and iron helmets, be able to open strong bows, carry 30 arrows per person, hold a long ge or iron halberd, belt a sharp sword, carry 3 days of combat food and grass, and be able to walk more than 100 miles in half a day. Seven or eight years later, only 50,000 people passed the assessment. As soon as the 50,000 Wei warriors were trained, they defeated Qin Huigong's 500,000 Qin troops in the first battle, shaking the world. This first batch of Wei Wushu's descendants have always been proud to be martial soldiers, and there are only more than 100 people left in the inheritance! They regarded the broken iron sword handed down from their ancestors in their arms as more important than their own lives.

"Haha!" Wang Ben smiled and said, "I see that not only do you fancy the more than 100 broken swords, but when the time comes, those more than 100 people will be abducted by you, right?" ”

"You are the main general, I don't mean you are abducted!" Montenegro quibbled.

"Come on! This battle is over soon, and as soon as the tiger talisman is handed over, I don't know who is the main general in the future? Wang Ben smiled, "I'll sell you another favor, and when King Wei fakes his surrender, I'll stay behind and let you escort King Wei back to Xianyang to reunite with the princess, how about it?" ”

"Just what I want! Thank you, General! "Montenegro was overjoyed and immediately agreed!

"Then next year, more than 100 Wei Wushu will give me half of it, what do you think?" Wang Ben changed the topic and talked about those pawns again.

"General, when the last general was recuperating from his illness, he got some good things and gave them to you!" Montenegro touched his head, quickly diverted the topic, and ordered someone to take out two newly printed copies of "Mencius" and "Nine Chapters of Arithmetic" and a large stack of neatly cut papers, and handed them to Wang Ben.

When Wang Ben saw the beautifully printed book, he was full of praise while reading it, and joked: "You are still amazing, there are several cloud cars in our military camp, you should go and fall a few more times, and get more good things!" ”

After lunch, the king of Wei was still not seen to go out of the city and surrender, Wang Ben ordered the army to enter Daliang City, and arranged for each army to search the people in the city separately, and the military officials took over the affairs of the arsenal and grain depot. Black Mountain and Wang Ben led the escort horse team and went straight into the city, the largest city in the Warring States was already in ruins, the city wall was almost completely collapsed, and the houses collapsed nine times out of ten. The thick mud was dry for a few days, and the horse's feet were just right to step on it and not sink in. The royal city is a few feet higher because of the terrain, and it is basically intact! Vermilion lacquer green tiles, pavilions and pavilions, one after another, not only the scale has been much larger than the Xianyang Palace, the appearance of the carved beams and paintings is many times more luxurious than the Xianyang Palace. Entering the palace, the decoration inside is more luxurious, and the thick carpet is filled with exquisite gold ceremonial vessels, which is extremely luxurious everywhere. In the royal treasury, it is really a mountain of gold and jade, and all kinds of jewels are available.

Everyone was dumbfounded, and Wang Ben scolded: "I heard that King Wei was rich, but I didn't expect to be like this!" The combined treasury of the three palaces of Yan, Zhao and Han is not as good as that of the Wei family. The officers immediately counted the vaults. According to the rules, part of the reward was left for the three armies, and the rest was loaded and transported into Xianyang.

A military official came to report: "King Wei has just sacrificed to the Taimiao and is preparing for the surrender ceremony!" Please go over and surrender the general! ”
