Chapter 304: Defending Against the Enemy (2)

Shangdang was a city ceded by Korea to Qin, how could it be changed to Zhao? The monarch of Zhao State was a little swollen in his brain: he felt that being fooled was naturally given to Zhao by South Korea, which was his own thing, and if Qin Guo wanted it, he would take it with his ability?

Zhao Guo was dizzy from top to bottom, and he wanted to break his wrists with Qin Guo; There is even a kind of mentality of breaking the jar and breaking it, it's a big deal who is afraid of who in a fight!

If people are bastards, God can't help it, and it is very ridiculous for Zhao Guoren to regard fighting a war so easily.

The Qin State sent Bai Qi to the expedition, and Bai Qi was ordered to move forward and meet Lian Po, the god of war of the Zhao State.

The reason why Lian Po is called the god of war is not that he must attack in every battle, but that he uses zero-sum strategy and tactics to assess the situation.

Lian Po is old-fashioned! In the face of the Qin army coming from afar, they did not confront Bai Qi head-on, and repaired fortifications every day; I'm going to have a protracted battle to drag down Bai Qi.

This tactic is the most deadly, and the Qin army is a tiger wolf; Charging into battle, all of them were experts, and Zhao Jun didn't make direct contact with him, and the young man of the Qin army was so anxious that he grew fangs.

It was useless to grow ivory, and after a stalemate in Lian Po, the Qin State was in a dilemma; had to use a counter-strategy - let Zhao Guo change the commander.

Zhao Guo, who is like a stupid pig, really took out Lian Po and replaced him with Zhao Kuo, who was "talking on paper", but was beaten by Bai Qi and couldn't find the north.

After Zhao Kuo became a ghost under the sword of Bai Qi, what should the soldiers of Zhao State do? Everyone is thinking: let's go down! Surrender is the best option!

After some psychological warfare, Zhao Guobing chose to give up resistance and surrender to Bai Qi; In the face of 400,000 Zhao Guo's descendants, Bai Qi was so worried that he didn't think about tea and dinner, 400,000 people! How to dispose of it? He pondered day and night this serious and imminent problem!

When Bai Qi couldn't make up his mind, he had to ask the King of Qin and Prime Minister Fan Sui; However, King Qin and Fan Ju played tricks, and they let Bai Qi watch it himself; The general will not be subject to the king's order outside!

Just kidding! But this is not a joke, this is what the edict of King Qin to Bai Qi says; This is called the cow cage's mouth urine is not satisfied, and Bai Qi is so anxious that a circle of bubbles grows on his mouth; In the end, the third way was chosen, kill!

So isn't the other two ways feasible?

The first way is to put! This method seems more humane, but there are many problems, and you can be sure that these returned pawns will be grateful for Qin's actions; So far, he will no longer be an enemy of the Qin State?

I'm afraid it's the opposite, once these pawns are put back; It gave Zhao the opportunity to organize a confrontation with Qin again, and Qin had invested huge manpower and material resources in this war; The national strength is already in a weak state, and if Zhao counterattacks again, it is difficult to say that the Qin State has the ability to compete with it again; Then the dangerous state is the state of Qin, not the state of Zhao.

The second way is to make up! The compilation here is not a compilation of stories, but a compilation of incorpories, that is, the inclusion of these soldiers into the army of the Qin army; This method was also vetoed by Bai Qi.

Not to mention that the loyalty of these soldiers cannot be guaranteed, the number of these soldiers alone is something that the Qin army cannot afford; The military rations of their own army are already a big problem, and if they add another 400,000 mouths, this figure may be able to bear it in one day; So what to do after a long time?

If there is no military rations, let alone surrender, it is difficult for even one's own army to guarantee that there will be no mutiny; Moreover, there are many wounded among these soldiers, and if there is a contagious disease or something, this is undoubtedly increasing their own risk; Since none of the seemingly feasible plans are feasible, there is only a third option, Kill and Surrender!

Since ancient times, killing and surrendering has been regarded as an ominous practice for pawns, and Bai Qi chose the most beneficial to Qin after some weighing; But the most brutal way for the pawn is to kill!

However, Bai Qi was not a cold-blooded "human slaughter", and in the end, he still let the young 240 people return to Zhao.

War is brutal, though Bai Qi is unwilling; But he did it anyway, not because he wanted to do it on purpose; But the actual situation at that time could only leave him such a way, and it should be said that killing and surrendering was a helpless move for nothing.

Wei Yan laughed loudly after listening to Qin Shi Huang's story, and pointed his finger at him and said: "Brother Shadow, are you excusing Bai Qi, and later generations will scold you as a tyrant; The Qin army is all a butcher, and now you are the one who has been reborn; What do you think, our brothers may wish to discuss it! ”

Qin Shi Huang gave Wei Yan a smile back and said: "Brother Wei is Liu Bei's tribe, and Liu Bei's trust in his brother is like a brother's own brother to defend against Cao Cao in Hanzhong is an example; My brother was in the limelight for a while! ”

After a pause, he swallowed his throat and said, "However, feng shui takes turns, and bad luck comes to your house; As soon as Zhuge Liang grasped the power of Shu, the days of his brother were to call Huazi to celebrate the New Year every year, Zhuge Liang said that Wei Yan had a backbone in the back of his head and was an anti-thief! ”

"I'm fucking ......" Wei Yan stood up excitedly and scolded a fuck, but he didn't let out the cold; He smiled magnanimously, sat down again, raised his arm, and said, "Brother Shadow, Old Wei doesn't remember villains; Zhuge Liang is a villain, and Lao Wei doesn't care about him! Go on! ”

Qin Shi Huang laughed and said: "It seems that Brother Wei has soaked in salt water three times, and cleaned it in the sea water three times!" ”

Stretching his neck and throat, he said: "Before Zhuge Liang died, he would rather hand over the military power to Yang Yi, a long history who does not understand military affairs, than to Wei Yan, the general of Zhenbei, which has indeed set a historical precedent; Zhuge Liang made the old brother like this, you couldn't sit still, burned the plank road to intercept the Shu army, and was beheaded by Ma Dai, who was placed by Zhuge Liang's side; has created a strange injustice in the world! ”

Dingdingshen said excitedly: "The elder brother was beheaded by Ma Dai arranged by Zhuge Liang, which was originally a tragedy, but later generations also judged that the killing was good; That's how it should be with the thief! Isn't this the same as later generations scolding Qin Shi Huang as a tyrant and Qin Jun as a butcher? ”

Later generations scolded Qin Shi Huang as a tyrant, but it was this tyrant who unified China; Books are the same, cars are on the same track, and the lines are the same, becoming the only unified country on the earth; The Chinese civilization has been followed for 5,000 years.

Some people cursed Qin Shi Huang for building the Great Wall and building mausoleums; But without the Great Wall and mausoleum built by Qin Shi Huang, how could it attract so many people from all over the world to visit? Children, stop doing stupid things about eating and smashing someone's pot!

The reason why Qin was able to unify China was the result of the whole country's admiration of force, and it was inseparable from the entire development process of the country.

The state of Qin was originally a small country located on the shore of the East China Sea, but due to the squeeze of other countries; Forced to migrate to the west.

And the Central Plains country has always treated this Qin state as a Rong people, that is, an ethnic minority, and looked down on it; Think of it as an uncivilized nation.

It can be said that the Qin State sought to survive and develop in a very difficult environment.

In addition, it has to do with its geographical environment.

The state of Qin is located in the west, and it is relatively close to the nomads; It can also be said that it developed under the siege of nomads.

There is a duality in everything, nomads are good at hunting on horseback and archery; This had too much influence on the Qin State, and after being exposed to it, a national spirit of advocating force would be formed.

These factors of the Qin State, Shang Ying's reform is fundamental; Shang Jun stipulated that the soldiers of the Qin State could obtain the first rank of knighthood, a field house and a number of servants as long as they captured one of the enemy's heads.

The more heads you kill, the higher the title you get.

As long as the war is fought well, you can be knighted, and once you are knighted, you will have a certain amount of land; If there is a certain house, then the life of the whole people is linked to war; This is Shang Ying's famous military merit knighthood system.

If a soldier captures two enemy heads on the battlefield, he becomes a prisoner's parent and becomes a free man at once; A wife who is a slave can also be converted into a commoner, and the Shang Dynasty changes the law. Lots of credit.

The military merit system made the soldiers and civilians of the Qin State, who originally paid attention to family concepts and morality, regard death as home, and made the Qin army, which was already wild and vigorous, become obedient; Joining the army to fight wars and being diligent in agricultural production is the way to get ahead.

This naturally led to the formation of a situation in which all the people of the Qin State were soldiers and the whole country was armed, and the princes were afraid.

So much so that in the late Warring States period, even the Wei army wearing rhinoceros armor; Under the brutal and powerful attacks of the Qin army, it seemed to be vulnerable, like hitting a stone with an egg.

As a result, the Six Kingdoms of Shandong were crumbling under the overwhelming attack of Mount Tai, the elite and powerful military force of the Qin State; had to compensate for his losses by attacking and merging with the other five countries, and his vitality was greatly damaged, so the Qin State swept through the six countries; The reunification of China is the trend of historical development.

For the Chinese people who attach importance to family inheritance, the military merits of the Qin State can be passed on.

If a father dies in battle, his merit can be credited to the son; If one person obtains military merits, the whole family can benefit.

Therefore, the Qin State basically did not have a fratricidal infighting, but unanimously killed the enemy and made meritorious contributions; Gallop on the field and make contributions......

Qin Shi Huang and Wei Yan were talking, Xue Shisan and Chun Yu Wanyun came back, followed by dozens of bright-looking girls from Yu'er, Shui'er, Ying'er, and Xing'er.

Xue Shisan and Chun Yu Wanyun said that after communicating with the defenders of the bridgehead, they persuaded all the people who planned to flee to go home.

Yu'er, Shui'er, Ying'er, and Xing'er said that one or two hundred of them had been observing the movements of the Liao army on the north bank of the Yellow River, and those Tartars suddenly disappeared last night......
