Chapter 37: The Dead Thousands of Miles (2)
Chencheng was originally the capital of Chen. Chen State is a feudal country sealed by King Wu of Zhou, this is a small country, it is unlikely to leave a strong mark in the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is this small and small Zhu Hou who made a big deal in the Spring and Autumn Period.
Because Chen Guo produced a very famous woman named Xia Ji. Xia Ji was born very beautiful, with the beautiful appearance of shy flowers and closed moons, Chen Guoguo Jun heard that she was beautiful, admired her, and then used some means to give her up. If that's all there is to it, it's nothing, isn't it just an extra mistress. However, what is even more ridiculous about Chen Linggong is that he actually shared a beauty with two favored ministers and went to Xia Ji together.
This event eventually spread, causing a farce, and finally Chen Guo was destroyed because of this. Although after the destruction of the country this time, Chen was restored, but because the reputation of the Chen State was stinky and the strength was consumed, and finally the Chen State was destroyed by the Chu State, so there was Chen Cheng.
The geographical location of Chen Di is very good, and it is one of the main routes for Chu to enter the Central Plains, which is also the reason why Chu insists on destroying Chen.
Because of its special geographical location, Chencheng is an important trade route, and there are many goods coming in and out of here every day, and people come and go, so it is not lively.
It is precisely because of this that Chen Cheng has been built very strongly, and it can be said that it is Jinchi Tang City, which is difficult to break.
At the beginning of the morning, when the sky is light, Chencheng is already very lively, there are many pedestrians coming and going like carp crossing the river, and the sound of street vendors is loud, which can be called a scene.
The north gate of Chencheng is particularly lively, because countless goods are transported from the Central Plains to Chencheng, that is, they enter through the north city gate, and the goods transported from Chencheng to the Central Plains also have to go out from the north city gate. It is the north gate that is the most lively.
"Hurry up. Go fast! Don't get in the way. ”
"What's it called? Didn't you see so many people? ”
The noisy voices of the traders urging each other to each other were loud. It's not lively.
"Huh!" Suddenly, one of the vendors pricked up his ears and listened, saying, "Listen, what is this sound?" ”
"What's the sound? You have a problem with your ears, did you climb over the woman's belly too hard last night and hurt your ears? ”
"Even if the belly of the climbing girl hurts her body bones, it won't hurt her ears, right? You're too flamboyant. ”
"Overconsumption. It's going to have something wrong with your ears, and you really don't know it, so I won't tell you. ”
The land of Baiyue borders the state of Chu and is nominally the land of the state of Chu, although the state of Chu does not actually own it, there is no shortage of Yue people who enter the state of Chu to seek a living. The Yue women are hot and enthusiastic, and they are very loved by the rich, and there are naturally many Yue women in the leather and meat business in the prosperous place of Chencheng.
"Hey, is there really a sound? It was like thunder. ”
"Thunder? No, it's like thousands of horses galloping. ”
"Thousands of troops? You want to get it out. Although the Yue girl is hot and enthusiastic, she is unrestrained. But you should also pay attention to the bones, and don't toss hard. What have you been tossing about? Even my brain is wrong. ”
Someone's ear is good. I heard that this thunderous sound was made by thousands of troops, but no one believed it.
"The sound is neat and clear, it is indeed the sound of an army marching."
"It's still all cavalry."
"How did you know this was cavalry? Can't it be a pawn? ”
"You don't think about it, this voice is coming so fast, Shicai is still far away, and now it is much closer, so fast, who else can there be besides the cavalry? Foot soldiers? Can a foot soldier be so fast? ”
"Reasonable! Reasonable! With such a big movement, there are not a few cavalrymen, right? How many cavalry does this have? It would not have been possible without 10,000 people. ”
"Ten thousand? You can really think wildly. I didn't tell you, such a big movement is scary to hear, and there are tens of thousands of cavalry, to say the least. ”
"Tens of thousands of cavalry? Impossible, right? Da Chu has a lot of chariot soldiers, and there are very few cavalry, how can there be so many cavalry? ”
The pedestrians talked and talked about it, and after coming to the conclusion that it was a large cavalry, they were confused again. Because the Chu State was conservative, and in the Warring States Period, it was still pursuing the way of chariot warfare in the Spring and Autumn Period, and there were not many cavalry at all.
"Look, there's a lot of people! That's a lot of horses! "In a daze, a smooth line of water appeared in front of me, surging and surging rapidly.
"The black military uniform, the black leather armor, the black flag, it's the Qin army! It's Qin Jun! "Someone has good eyesight and has already recognized this as Qin Jun.
"Qin Jun? Can you tell the story? How did Qin Jun come here? ”
"That's not necessarily, the Qin army is out of nowhere, even the capital of Chu has been breached, and the royal tomb of Chu has been burned, so there is nothing impossible."
"Is it really Qin Jun? The flag has the word Qin written on it. ”
Someone finally recognized the banner of the Qin army, and now he didn't dare to have any doubts, it must be the Qin army.
"How did Qin Jun come here?" Immediately after, these pedestrians just couldn't figure it out.
It was the Qin army under the leadership of Wang Jian who came. The purpose of Wang Qian's operation this time is to destroy, destroy, and destroy. Chencheng, a prosperous and important place, naturally became the target of the Qin army. If this place is destroyed, the state of Chu will feel pain.
Wang Jian rode on his horse, galloping and looking at Chen Cheng. I saw that the city of Chencheng was high and thick, extremely strong, it could be said to be the soup pool of Jincheng, if the Qin army was not surprised, it would be difficult to capture it.
"Even if Chen Cheng is a hundred times stronger, what's the use?" The corners of Wang Qian's mouth cracked, he smiled coldly, waved his right hand, and roared loudly: "Brothers, have you seen it? In front of it is Chen Cheng, the important place of the Chu State! There are mountains of grain and grass in Chen City, mountains of gold, silver and jewelry, and countless hateful Shandong people, who are killed into the city and leave no grass behind! ”
"Not a single grass left!" The Qin army erupted with a terrifying roar, like rolling thunder, piercing through the nine heavens.
"Choke! Choke! The sound of drawing the sword sounded, and Qin Jun clenched the Qin sword in his hand, and his eyes seemed to spew fire, like a tiger descending from the mountain, and rushed towards Chen Cheng.
At this time, the pedestrians were all stunned, and they would never have dreamed that it was Qin Jun who came. Moreover, it is still necessary to kill the Qin army.
"Puff puff!" The Qin army rushed to the front, and the Qin sword in his hand slashed down fiercely, for a while. Heads rolling. Blood splattered. I don't know how many people died under the sword of the Qin army.
"Ahh Yes! Yes! The screams came and went.
"Run, run, the tiger wolf Qin people are coming!" Only then did the pedestrians come to their senses, and their shouts rang out like headless flies, scurrying around.
The Qin army is rampant in the world, and there is no opponent, where can these pedestrians escape. Soon he became a ghost under the sword, and he died.
After killing all the pedestrians under the city, the Qin army rushed towards the city gate like a splash of wind.
At this time, the soldiers and soldiers of Chu guarding the city gate were still in extreme shock, their mouths widened, their eyes widened, and their expressions were ghostly. If they were killed, they would not have thought that the Qin army would kill here, even if they saw it with their own eyes, they would not believe it, absolutely not believe it.
But. The facts are in front of them, and they have to believe even if they don't believe it.
"Goo!" These Chu soldiers guarding the city gate made a strange sound in their throats. It's like a crowing rooster being choked by the neck.
"Quick, close the gates! Close the gates! After a long while, these Chu soldiers came to their senses and wanted to close the city gates.
As long as the city gate is closed, it can prevent the Qin army from rushing into the city. As long as the Qin army could not rush into the city, they could keep Chen Cheng safe. Although the Chu army's plan was good, it could not be realized, because the Qin army would not give them a chance to close the city gate at all.
What kind of person is Wang Qian? With Wang Qian's intelligence, he couldn't have imagined the importance of the city gate? When the Qin army slashed and killed the merchants, Wang Jian led a team of Qin troops composed of iron eagle warriors to rush straight to the city gate.
The Iron Eagle Warrior was the top force in the world at that time, and it was the most elite army of the Qin State.
However, in a short time, the Iron Eagle Ruishi rushed to the city gate, and the Chu soldiers at this time also rushed to the city gate, wanting to close the city gate, but they were ruthlessly killed by the Iron Eagle Ruishi.
When they get close, they use the Qin sword to greet them, and when they are far away, they shoot them with bows and arrows. With the ability of the Iron Eagle Warriors, this killing is like entering a no-man's land, and these Chu soldiers guarding the city gate have no ability to parry at all, and they are quickly killed by the Qin army.
As soon as he occupied the city gate, Wang Jian did not hesitate, took the lead, and rushed straight to the city.
"Rumble!" Immediately following Wang Jian and rushing into the city was the Iron Eagle Warrior, and behind the Iron Eagle Warrior was the Qin army like the tide, which was earth-shattering and terrifying.
The Qin army rushed into the city, which was to kill people on a large scale, and to kill people when they met them, and to cut down people when they met them, without the slightest mercilessness.
It was a massacre, a massacre in the truest sense of the word!
Not to mention that the Chencheng defenders were not strong in battle, even if Xiang Yan's Jiangdong soldiers were not the opponents of the Qin army, the Chencheng defenders did not have the slightest strength to fight back, and were completely suppressed and beaten by the Qin army.
The massacre lasted more than half a day before it stopped. At this time, the entire Chen City was already a hell on earth, except for Qin Jun, no one could breathe, and everyone who could be killed was killed.
"General Yu, discover the Cangqiao of the Chu State." Some generals of the Qin army came to report to Wang Jian.
"Let's go, let's see." Chen Cheng is an important place, and there must be a lot of good things in its warehouse, and Wang Jian really wants to go and see it.
Under the leadership of General Qin, Wang Jian came to the warehouse to take a look, and almost dazzled his eyes.
The state of Chu is worthy of being the Warring States with the most land, the most cities, the largest number of mouths, and the most abundant products in the world at that time.
In addition to grain and grass, there are also a lot of gold, silver and pearls, which are also piled up into mountains, shaking people's eyes.
"General, we sent it this time, and it was big. You see, so much grain, grass, gold and silver treasures, transported back to the Qin State, it is of great benefit to Great Qin. General Qin said with a smile.
"Command: Let the brethren rest on the spot, replenish food and water, and then burn the grain and grass with a fire, and not take a single treasure of gold or silver." However, to the surprise of General Qin, Wang Jian handed down the slightest order.
"General, why is that?" General Qin was puzzled.
"Our mission this time is not to loot grain, grass, gold and silver treasures, but to destroy, to destroy. Bringing these things with you will seriously drag down the march. Wang Jian explained.
The Qin army's operation this time was mainly sabotage, and if we wanted to achieve this goal, we must act as quickly as possible, and Wang Jian was extremely reasonable.
Although General Qin was unwilling, he had no choice but to carry out the order.
The Qin army had a short rest in Chencheng, and then a fire turned Chencheng into ruins.
Before leaving, Wang Jian ordered the Qin army to put thousands of corpses in the shape of "Great Qin must not be insulted". (To be continued......)
