Chapter 40: Persuasion
The city of Handan is about to be broken, and what Xinling Jun wants to do most at the moment is to leave Handan and flee far, as far as he can. As for whether he can escape the pursuit of the Qin State, he has no bottom at all, but if he escapes, he still has a chance to live, and staying in Handan is sure to die, and he still has to escape.
If you want to escape, you have to break through the encirclement of the Qin army, although the Qin army implements a key siege strategy, and the siege force in some places is not strong, and there is a possibility of escape. The problem is that even if the siege force is not strong, it is not something that his disciples can deal with, and if he gathers some of the defeated troops of Zhao State with the help of the general's soldiers, and asks them to take the lead, it is more likely to escape.
Thousands of calculations, but they didn't calculate, and when they met Lian Po, they forcibly took away his general's talisman. Without the General's Talisman, the chances of him escaping were almost nil, and he only felt that the world was spinning, as if the end of the world was coming.
He wanted to rush forward and retrieve the general's talisman from Lian Po, but he didn't have the guts.
Lian Po led the Zhao army of Zhao, and while rushing towards the area where the Qin army entered the city, he ordered: "You, you, you, take people immediately, demolish houses, move stones and bricks, and build a wall here first." And then, here again, here, build a wall. Be quick. ”
This is the right thing to do.
The Qin army had already invaded the city of Handan, and the city walls had lost their effectiveness, and only by rebuilding fortifications similar to the city walls could the Zhao army be able to provide convenience to the Zhao army, and rely on these fortifications to fight the Qin army.
"No!" These Zhao generals immediately received the order and led a group of Zhao people to start demolishing houses and building fortifications.
"You go to the west, you go to the north, you go to the south, you must guard these places, and you can't let the Qin army attack again." Lian Po pointed to the three Zhao generals and ordered loudly.
The Qin army has already broken through one city gate, and the situation is critical enough, if the Qin army breaks through a few more city gates. Rush in from these places. The situation is really irretrievable, and Handan will inevitably be breached.
"No!" The three Zhao generals took the order and walked away quickly.
"You, you, you, go collect the crossbow at once and set it up here. If the Qin army dares to come, shoot it immediately. "Lian Po is very decisive and commands in an orderly manner. The approach is very correct.
There are also strong crossbows in the Zhao army, and there are quite a few of them, although their power is not as good as the Qin crossbow, but they can provide great convenience to the Zhao army. If you gather the Zhao crossbows together, set up a crossbow array. It will inflict heavy casualties on the Qin army.
"No!" After receiving the order, these named Zhao generals walked away quickly.
They are all people who have followed Lian Po and know that Lian Po is capable. Lian Po handled it like this, and they also knew that it was extremely correct, and if it could be implemented well, maybe it would really be possible.
"The rest, come with me! Kill the Qin army! Avenge! Lian Po waved his arm. Shaking his fists and shouting loudly. He pulled out Zhao Jian violently and rushed out first.
"Kill the Qin army!"
"Revenge!" Zhao Jun and Zhao Ren roared. Hulala, followed by Lian Po and rushed out.
They all have round eyes. Full of hatred, like a tiger descending from the mountain, without the slightest fear.
Those who have weapons wield their weapons, those who have no weapons pick up stones and bricks, and those who have no stones or bricks shake their fists and bared their teeth, and this is their weapon.
Those Zhao people, who were so old that they were scumbags, were panting for breath in a row, which was heavier than the breathing of a cow that had traveled hundreds of miles, however, they filled their chests with hatred, did not give up, and were still charging.
There are even some old people who fall down in a rush, stop breathing, and end their lives. However, their fists were clenched, the hatred on their faces remained, and they did not give up until they died.
Those babbling children shouted indistinctly: "Kill the Qin army!" Avenge! "Waving a small white and tender fist.
"Lian Po!"
The Qin army, who was rushing to kill, saw a large group of people, no less than 100,000 people, and suddenly rushed over, and was very surprised, and when he looked at it, it turned out that Lian Po had arrived.
Lian Po is an old opponent of the Qin State, and the Qin army knows him by many people.
"Haha!" Qin Jun let out a burst of laughter and ridiculed loudly: "Lian Po, what can you do if you come?" We have rushed into the city, you are looking for death, we will fulfill you! ”
Lian Po has been fighting all his life, most of the time he is fighting with the Qin State, and the Qin army hates him to the core, and he can't wait to divide Lian Po's body. When Handan City was broken, Lian Po led people to rush over, isn't this looking for death?
Not to mention, the one who rushed with Lian Po is not called an army, it is a rabble, the old one is about to drop the scum, and he will fall down when he rushes, and the small one is still babbling, and there is not much strength.
Moreover, they want weapons without weapons, and they want armor without armor, but the Qin army is armed to the teeth, which is not an order of magnitude, and Lian Po is sure to die.
"This ......" Wang Jian was shocked when he saw it in his eyes, and the heavy sword in his hand couldn't help but stop.
"This ......" Meng Fu, who was commanding the Qin army to fight at the head of the city, looked shocked in his eyes, and even forgot to command the Qin army to fight.
"Lian Po, you're too late, Handan will be broken!" Wang Ling was also shocked when he saw it, and then he was disdainful and ridiculed.
"No!" Qin Yiren roared as if he had burned his buttocks, and said, "Quick, order to stop attacking!" ”
"Stop the attack?" Wang Ling looked at Qin Yiren with a pair of tiger eyes, shook his head, and said, "Childe, this is a good opportunity to attack." I want to defeat Lian Po and capture Handan in one fell swoop. ”
This is definitely a good opportunity to defeat Lian Po, and, from Wang Ling's point of view, it only takes a few charges to do it.
"What Childe said is extremely reasonable! General Wang, stop the attack! Wei Yi and Huang Shigong loudly supported Qin Yiren.
"General Wang, you can see clearly, this is a group of women, children, old and weak, they are unarmed, if they attack again, this is a massacre." Qin Yiren roared like thunder: "If you slaughter these old and weak, will you be able to sleep?" Aren't you afraid of waking up in the middle of the night? Aren't you afraid of a bad conscience? ”
"This ......" Wang Ling was stunned.
These rushing Zhao people and Zhao Jun are not the opponents of the Qin army at all, and they only need a few charges to kill them cleanly, the question is, can they be killed? If you kill it, will your conscience be at ease? Can you sleep?
"Great Qin Ruishi is a soldier, not a butcher, not an executioner, not a demon, they can't kill these defenseless women, children, old and weak! You remember, they are not butchers, they are not executioners! Qin Yiren grabbed Wang Ling's clothes and shook them desperately, shaking Wang Ling's head like a rattle.
The green tendons on Qin Yiren's forehead, neck, and the back of his hands were suddenly angry, like old tree branches, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells.
Saliva splashed, spraying Wang Ling's head and face, and Wang Lingwu didn't realize it.
He scolded Qin Yiren soberly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he hurriedly said, "Stop attacking!" ”
Wei Yi and Huang Shigong hurriedly waved the order flag and passed on the order.
"What? Stop attacking! ”
"Why stop attacking?"
The Qin army was preparing to kill and capture Handan, but suddenly received a military order to stop the attack, and couldn't help but be surprised and puzzled.
Everyone can see that although these Zhao people and Zhao troops are violent, they do not have much combat power, and they are not at the same level as the Qin army.
"Whew!" Wang Jian let out a long breath.
"Whew!" Meng Fu crossed his sleeves and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead, and finally let go of his hanging heart.
"Brethren, I know you wonder why you stopped attacking when victory was in sight?" Wang Jian began to explain to the surprised Qin Junrui, "You can all see clearly, they are all women, children, old and weak, yes, they are not our opponents, we kill them all like slaughtering pigs and sheep!" But have you ever thought about it? When you kill them all, don't you feel guilty? Can your conscience be at peace? Will you be able to sleep? ”
Wang Jian deserved to be a famous military master through the ages, and he quickly understood the reason for stopping the attack, and he said it very reasonably.
"Yes, but what a great opportunity this is, and we can't afford to miss it." The Qin sword in Qin Jun's hand was put down, and he regretted it again.
The Qin State has been fighting for a hundred years, and the opportunity it has only been waiting for, if it is missed, who will be willing?
"Wang Jian is good." Meng Fu shouted praise.
"Childe, what should I do?" On the cloud car, Wang Ling ran out of ideas and asked Qin Yiren for advice.
He has absolutely no problem fighting with soldiers, but at the moment this situation cannot be solved by charging into battle, but needs other methods, which is not what he is good at.
"The only way to try to persuade me to surrender." Qin Yiren sighed and said, "Yi Lian is quite loyal to Zhao Guo, and the possibility of persuasion is too low, so we have to do it." Let's go meet Lianpo! ”
Lian Po was loyal to Zhao Guo and asked him to lay down his arms and surrender, which was impossible. However, if you don't persuade you to surrender first, but really take the attack, your conscience will be uneasy, and this is a process that must be taken.
"Okay!" Wang Ling was a little not interested, and said: "Lian Po is too stubborn!" ”
According to his understanding of Lian Po, it must be what Qin Yiren said.
Huang Shi Gong and Wei Yi waved the order flag and passed the order down. Wang Ling and Qin Yiren hurriedly got down from the cloud car and went straight to the city.
"General Lian Po, please stop!" Meng Fu strode over, came to the front of the formation, and shouted at Lian Po, who was charging: "General Wang wants to talk to you in front of the battle." ”
"If you smack it!" Lian Po categorically refused, and he did not make mistakes.
"General Lian Po, you are not afraid of death, I admire you very much. However, look at the Zhao people around you, they are not strong, they are not soldiers, they are women, children, old and weak, can you really ruthlessly send them to death? "The roar of Meng Fu was like thunder, and it spread far away, and it was difficult to stop for a long time.
"You've won!" Lian Po raised his head to the sky, sighed, and waved his hand, and the Zhao army who was charging stopped.
Lian Po is loyal, takes life and death lightly, and he will not frown when he is in the midst of thousands of armies. However, he can't afford to let these women and children die with him.
Previously, he flatly rejected Meng Fu's proposal, because he didn't want to touch the softest part of his heart. However, he had to stop. (To be continued.) )
