Chapter 880: Watch the Back

is different from what Uncle Sun Tong thought, Heifu is not a water virtue now, nor a fire virtue, nor a soil virtue.

Instead, he stood under the Wuguan wall that was blasted and collapsed last night, with a lack of morality.

"Hahaha."

Heifu looked at the pit that had been scorched by the burning explosion of black powder, and his face was overjoyed.

"I really have to thank Wang Li, thanks to the guard's anti-cave city technique, otherwise our army's sharp weapons really can't shake the walls of Wuguan."

Although Heifu had already sent some officials to Xu Fu who were proficient in "business skills", that is, engaged in civil engineering, they still underestimated the thickness of Wuguan and the strength of black powder.

However, because of the technique of the cave city, the location of the trial hole, and the method of digging the hole to meet it, the tunnel war between the two sides in the past two days has been carried out under the city wall of the western section of Wuguan.

All kinds of coincidences came together to cause the second blasting, and the wall collapsed.

collapsed together, as well as the courage of the defenders, it was the fire of heaven and the earth, it had long exceeded the limit of their imagination, and many people began to believe that this was really the manifestation of the first emperor and the marquis of Tongwu, righteousness in the south, and they gave up resistance on the spot and surrendered thousands of people.

Wang Li, the commander of the Northern Army, saw that the guards of Wuguan were holding their heads and running around, and the governor could not do anything, and he only had time to fly back to the camp ten miles north of Wuguan. The other side was also frightened by the vision, and there was an uproar, but it was far away, and the morale had not yet reached the point of complete collapse.

Wang Li could only retreat overnight with the people who had been prepared in formation, and the entire army of 100,000 left without a fight, retreating to Shangyu, and was chased by the leopard department at the east gate of the Northern Expeditionary Army......

By the next day, the number of people was counted, the first battle of Wuguan, the northern army surrendered, captured more than 10,000 people, and retreated all the way to the north, trampled on the spot and killed thousands, Dongmen Leopard is still leading the vanguard to pursue, there may be greater results.

On the contrary, there were more than 1,000 casualties in the Black Army......

"I thought there would be heavy losses, but I didn't expect that the soldiers would be bloodless!"

"Dashuai is really a god! Heaven and earth can be attracted! ”

The eyes of the Northern Expeditionary soldiers looking at Heifu have changed, from the admiration of the past to superstitious worship.

At this time, the guard Yuan Yong escorted a somewhat bald middle-aged man to Heifu:

"Dashuai, the public loses and brings it."

Hefu looked back at the craftsman who had caused them great difficulties in the siege:

"You are Gongsun Yun, why don't you flee with Wang Li?"

After all, Gongsun Yun is a smart person, at first he was shocked by the vision, and he even wanted to use the blood of a black dog to break it, but after smelling the pungent smell of gunpowder, he also came back to his senses, and felt that this eighty percent was a new weapon of the Northern Expeditionary Army.

He bowed to the ground: "From the moment the heavenly fire shot to the head of the city, and the earth moved and the wall collapsed, I knew that the prince would win this war, even if I escaped from Wuguan last night, it would be useless, the prince would take the world sooner or later, and at that time, where else could the Gongyi clan flee?" ”

Heifu smiled: "You craftsman, but you are smart. ”

Gongsun Yun bowed again: "Have you ever heard that the Chu people have shields and spears?" This man who sells spears and shields boasts of himself: 'The strength of my shield is that nothing can be trapped.' He also praised his spear and said: "The benefit of my spear is not to be trapped in things." ’”

Heifu knows that this is the story in "Han Feizi".

Gong Yi said: "Since the ancestor Lu Ban, my Gong Yi clan has been studying the art of siege, just like the sharpest spear. ”

"And the ink master delves into the art of defending the city, just like the strongest shield."

Although they have been grudges for two hundred years, the evaluation of each other by both sides is quite high.

"Everyone in the world says that the shield that cannot be trapped and the spear that cannot be trapped cannot stand together in the world, so two hundred and fifty years ago, the meeting of the Yingdu, the nine ancestors of the family set up the opportunity to attack the city, Mo Zhai nine distances, the ancestors of the attack are exhausted, Mo Zhai's defense is more than enough, and the spear fails to destroy the shield."

"But two hundred years ago, my family won one more game. Meng Sheng, the giant of the Mo family, led his disciples to guard Yangcheng for 180 people, and the king of Chu attacked him, and the prince knew who helped Chu to break Yangcheng? ”

Yangcheng is the place where Heifu once became, where he first met Qin Mo, and he had already guessed: "It was the Gong Lose Clan." ”

"Not bad." There was pride in the eyes of the male loser: "That time, the shield failed to resist the spear!" ”

"And the prince now has a spear in his left hand and a shield in his right hand, and he has the most powerful offensive and defensive methods in the world at the same time."

"Sanhe soil, the big rhubarb crossbow, the urn city that appeared in Xiangyang, is the strongest guard."

"And yesterday's earth-shaking wall collapse was the strongest attack."

"Therefore, the prince will be invincible in the world, and the public loser will not dare to resist, and he is willing to surrender to the prince!"

Heifu smiled: "What can the Gong Lose Clan do for me?" ”

Gong Yi raised his head: "Last night's technique, although it shook the world and was unheard of, is it the sharpest spear?" I'm afraid otherwise, if it weren't for the hollowing out of this section of foundation in the inner and outer crypts, I'm afraid it would have been like the eastern wall, standing still......"

"The art of the prince still needs to be improved!"

"And my father-in-law loses the clan, and I can serve the prince!"

Heifu didn't agree easily: "The ink master has made a shield for me, and a spear for me, and your skills are almost the same, so why do I still need a public loser?" ”

Gong Yi said firmly: "My family is the enemy of the Mo family, so I know best that the Mo people advocate non-aggression and respect the morality of Mo Zhai." Even if it is temporarily used by the prince, what they seek is different from the prince, and sooner or later they will part ways with the monarch like breaking with Qin! ”

"And the Gong Yi clan, no matter what ink scripture morality, the benefits of the world, we are just pure craftsmen, what the monarch asks us to do, we will do what we do, as for what to use, I don't care, at that time, the prince will definitely be able to use the Gong Yi clan!"

"You should stay first."

Heifu looked back at the ruined Wuguan city wall: "I'm not Hu Hai, a skilled craftsman, just too little, not too much." ”

The public lost the first thanks, but in the end he couldn't help it, and pointed to the scorched pit after the black powder was blasted:

"The villain racked his brains, and still didn't know how to do it?"

After all, it is a technology that is a thousand years ahead of its time.

Heifu just smiled mysteriously.

"Gong Yiyun, when you go to the ancestors of the future clan, tell Lu Ban a word on my behalf."

"Dare to ask the prince, what are you saying?" The male pricked up his ears and ears.

Heifu rode by, leaving only four words:

"Times have changed!"

……

"The prince wants to accept the Gongyi clan?"

The front foot of the public lost was gone, and the ink man Ah Zhong came on the back foot, and he heard the news of the surrender of the public loss clan to Heifu, and he had the heart to admonish.

Ah Zhong is really afraid now, and the ink artist will repeat the mistakes of ten years ago.

Once upon a time, Qin Mo pursued Shang Tong, one day down, to end the war.

For this reason, they did not hesitate to give up the non-offensive and chose to support the annexation of Qin, which greatly improved Qin's military-industrial system, and finally helped Qin Shi Huang sweep the world.

Unexpectedly, after Qin Shi Huang was unified, he never stopped the war, fought in the south and the north, and had almost no peace, and even forced the ink man to contribute technology in order to pursue poverty and luxury, and contributed to his extravagant palace and huge mausoleum......

Those things led to the complete separation of the Mo family and the Qin official government, and some extremists even thought of assassinating Qin Shi Huang in order to achieve "punishment".

Seeing those shocking scenes last night, Ah Zhong was a little scared, Heifu had asked Xu Fu to secretly develop a power comparable to the punishment of ghosts and gods, he was afraid that he would be deceived again, when Marquis Wu Zhong seized Guanzhong and pacified the world, he would also forget his original intention, indulge in sharp weapons, and repeat the old path of Qin Shi Huangdi.

But Heifu's next words reassured him.

"Ah Zhong." Hefu comforted him:

"Remember what I said?"

"There is no right or wrong in craftsmen and skills."

"Whether it is right or wrong depends on the rulers and how they use them."

"The ladders and hooks made by the Gong Yi clan are used to attack the city and are weapons of killing. But if it is used to build houses for the people, and it is used to receive ships at the wharf, it is a tool for the benefit of others. ”

"This gunpowder is similar, it can be used to blow down walls and destroy houses. But over time, the cost of production has been reduced, and it can also be used to open mountains and crack rocks, and mine copper and iron. “

Ah Zhong bowed his head: "It's Ah Zhong who is shallow." ”

"You're young." Heifu sighed:

"Ben Hou hopes that one day, the public loser and the ink will not have to compete with your intelligence, ingenuity, and ingenuity in attack and defense, and in the production of killing weapons, but can compete in benefiting the country and the people!"

Ah Zhong is really young and easy to be deceived, and after he gets a satisfactory answer and leaves, Heifu secretly mutters: "Lie to your ......"

It is true that the utensils that benefit the country and the people must be done, but the sharp weapons of the military state must not be left behind.

If you fall behind, you will be beaten, this is what history has proven, for civilization, there will always be pursuers behind you, if you don't advance, you will retreat, and the future will require a long period of peace, but it does not mean that you will lose your armament.

Although the black powder made by Xu Fu now can indeed only be used to make Sky Monkeys and Second Kicks, in the future, it will have a broader space......

Looking back at Wuguan, Heifu was full of regrets, he was holding back a big force to pretend this time, but he almost failed to open the hanging, fortunately, he hit the right one, and he really won Wuguan without blood.

But it is impossible to have such good luck every time, and the sense of panic brought by the advent of gunpowder will gradually weaken.

Therefore, the technology that should be developed, no matter how much money is burned, must continue.

"Warlocks continue to reinvent the recipe to increase purity and power. And the craftsmen of the Gong and Mo are responsible for improving the smelting and casting skills, I wonder if I can make a bronze cannon before the end of my story? ”

He didn't know.

But if there are really a few rows of bronze cannons, swinging down the city, Heifu must pretend to be a wave in all directions, stretch out his hand, and a hundred cannons will sound in unison, and then chant the famous Fu ......

"Cannons ......"

"it!"

……

Although he captured Wuguan and was already counted as entering the pass, Heifu was not in a hurry now, and did not take the whole army to attack the last line of defense of the Northern Army, Yaoguan and Lantian, and waited for Han Xin to also enter the pass from Chencang, and it was a complete strategy to attack together.

So he first let Dongmen Leopard occupy Shangyu (Danfeng County, Shaanxi), and he waited for the rear grain team in Wuguan, and called Ji Ying and Gongwei to come.

"Where is the Chu army?" Heifu asked Ji Ying, the captain of the guard.

Ji Ying said: "I just got the news a few days ago, saying that the Wei army Wei Wuzhi Department crossed the alliance from Hanoi to attack Luoyang, and cooperated with the Chu army to encircle Chenggao, and now Sanchuan County has all fallen, Zhao Ben retreated to Hangu Pass, and Su Jiao led tens of thousands of remnants to retreat to Ruyang and Liang County. “

Liang County is the later generations of Henan Ruyang and other places, originally the Eastern Zhou Dynasty Wangji, later fell into the barbarian city, the Warring States belonged to Han, now belongs to Sanchuan County.

The local mountains and rivers are swirling, and the original is fertile. South out of Luyang Pass, then Wan, Deng Zhi's back; The north head Yique is the chest of Gong and Luo; The west refers to Songgao, and the momentum of Shaanxi and Yu moves; East Gu Fen, Chen, and Xu, Yingzhi to move. In the Spring and Autumn Period, Jin and Chu competed for Zheng, and often competed between Ying and Zhan. and the season of the Warring States Period, the divisions of Han, Wei, and Chu often fought under the Three Liangs. In the future, if the Northern Expeditionary Army and the Chu Army start a war in Sanchuan, Liang County will be a battleground.

"After the capture of Sanchuan, the Chu army was divided into two, one with 20,000 troops stationed in Luoyang, and the other with 50,000 troops led by Xiang Ji himself, and the troops were ...... at Hangu Pass."

"The Chu people are expanding their army quite quickly."

Heifu thought for a while and said: "The captain took 10,000 people to the first line of Wan and Ye, joined the local soldiers of Nanyang who were guarding Nanyang, and guarded the Chu army to attack Wancheng in the south. ”

Don't just look ahead, the more victory is in sight, the more careful you must be to be stabbed in the back.

"Let Sui He and Chen Hui go to the Sujiao camp in Ruyang again, and tell him that Guanzhong has been obtained by the Northern Expeditionary Army, the puppet emperor has been executed, and the new emperor has succeeded to the throne, and asked him if he would rather take refuge in the Chu people, be a national thief and a thief, and let himself and his subordinates be killed in Guanzhong's wife, or be a loyal general of the Great Qin and keep the glory and wealth?"

Su Jiao didn't have a choice at all.

And now Hefu is ready to fight two battles at the same time......

After the lieutenant was ordered to leave, Heifu asked Ji Ying again.

"How long will it take to give the order now and pass it on to Wu Yue?"

Ji Ying said: "Go down the Dan River, enter the Han River and the Great River, go all the way by boat, surpass the galloping horse, 20 days is enough!" ”

"Good."

Heifu smiled, he endured it for a long time, and now, he was finally able to stab Xiang Yu in the back unscrupulously.

"Pass my general's order, Wu Rui, An Pu, and Weiyang, the three generals, as soon as they get the order, immediately send Lou boats and Yue soldiers to cross the river, attack Huainan, and attack Chu thieves!"
