It's summer, and the sun is shining.

Outside the city of Daliang, 100,000 people wielded hoes and shovels to dig a large ditch wide and deep.

"It's a hot death, when will this matter be over? Naigong just wants to go into battle to kill the enemy, cut off people's heads and make military achievements, what is it to dig up mud all day long."

The black buttocks wiped a handful of sweat from his head, looked at the soldiers working under him, and began to complain again.

As a hundred generals, although he doesn't have to dig in the ground, he still has to patrol under the scorching sun to supervise whether his soldiers are lazy.

Shima said unexpectedly, "It's still early. Although the method of water attack can attack the city, the effect is very slow, and I think this city is big and hard, and it will take at least a few months to collapse the walls."

Zhao Tuo listened to it and nodded slightly.

Shima is right, in history, Wang Ben irrigated the beams with water, and it took three full months for the city wall to collapse.

The ditch between the girder and the chasm is almost finished, but this is only the first step.

After digging this ditch, the prisoners and slaves had to divide into two parts, one to block the lower reaches of the chasm, and the other to go north to dig the embankment of the Xingkou River.

The water of the big river will flow along the chasm, and when it encounters a blockage, it will pour into this artificial ditch and directly impact Daliang City.

After that, you just have to wait for the city to break.

"What? Stay here for months?"

When the black buttocks heard this, they shouted again, and said indignantly, "Actually, it's better to dig a ditch and wait a few months. But why should we people do this kind of thing? Those guys can stay in the camp all day to train and rest, and this General Wang is too ......."

"Black ass, shut up!"

Before the black buttocks finished speaking, the wabu on the side opened his mouth and scolded angrily, and he stared at the black buttocks with horizontal eyebrows, knowing that he had said the wrong thing.

Zhao Tuo didn't care about the two of them, and turned his head to look at the neat camp outside Daliang City.

The drums inside were noisy, and the shouts of killing shook the sky.

The reason why the black buttocks are not angry is because the 50,000 Huaiyang soldiers under Wang Ben's command did not participate in digging a ditch.

All those who do this kind of work are prisoners and slaves, and they are partials who are recruited from afar.

Like them, there are many people who took the initiative to enlist in the army with the idea of meritorious service promotion, such as Zhao Tuo, Black Buttocks and others, and the upper level was headed by Huan Zhao.

Everyone wanted to make meritorious contributions, and they rushed all the way with prisoners and slaves, but as soon as they arrived at the ground, they were driven to dig up the mud, who could bear this kind of grievance.

Many people are complaining, saying that there are many Wei troops in Yongqiu, Chenliu and other places around Daliang, which is a ready-made military achievement. If you can take the initiative and annihilate them, it will be much better than staying here and digging in the mud.

Zhao Tuo had heard Yang Xiong complaining about this more than once.

According to Yang Xiong, even Huan Zhao went to Wang Ben for this matter, hoping to give him a chance to make meritorious contributions.

As a result, he was blocked by Wang Ben's sentence of "acting according to military orders", and the angry Huan Zhao didn't eat that night, and sulked in the military tent alone.

"This is a siege point to send reinforcements, Wang Ben is really Wang Qian's species, and he is very stable."

Zhao Tuo sighed in his heart, others only complained, but Zhao Tuo knew this tactical style very well.

Those who are good at fighting cause others but not others.

Overwhelm people with power!

Just like when Wang Jian was in the middle of the Yan's army.

No matter how his generals ask for battle, no matter how the Yan army challenges, he only sits on the charge and consumes with the other party.

Let the enemy be impatient, give up the advantage, and take the initiative to send it to the door.

Today's Wang Ben is like this, he besieged Daliang with 50,000 soldiers and dug a ditch with 100,000 laborers, occupying the initiative and sitting firmly.

No matter how the Wei army around him gathered, Wang Ben would never divide his troops to attack.

If those Wei troops don't save Daliang, then the river will pour back, and it will be a matter of time before Daliang City breaks.

After taking the Great Liang, Wang Ben captured the Wei Wangjiao and the ministers and nobles of the Wei State, and the Wei State was considered dead.

The rest of the crowd is scared

What role can the courageous Wei army play?

When the time comes, you can just clean up one by one.

If those Wei soldiers can't bear it, come to the rescue.

That Wang Ben just used these 50,000 elite soldiers to wait for work, and to defeat the outnumbered with the crowd, and gathered them outside the city of Daliang.

So, the advantage is mine.

Wang Ben will definitely not agree to Huan Zhao and the others' request to send troops, except for the 50,000 soldiers, it is enough for others to dig up the mud obediently.

As this artificial ditch was about to connect with the chasm, the Wei troops stationed nearby couldn't help it.

If you don't attack again, the girder will be gone.

If you don't want to go up, you have to get it.

The drums of war were beating and the dust was flying.

In the barracks, 20,000 soldiers rushed to the battlefield in high spirits and high spirits.

"Alas, these people are going to make meritorious deeds."

Black Buttocks and Xi Qigu watched the army go away with envy on their faces.

Everyone has heard that Wei Ninglingjun Wei Qi, who was stationed in Yongqiu, couldn't bear it anymore and led more than 10,000 Wei troops to come to the aid of Daliang, intending to be the king of Qin.

20,000 dozen 10,000.

The Qin army, which was waiting for work, fought against the Wei army, which had traveled a long distance.

Just thinking about this battle will make you know that it will be won.

Those Wei people are just a string of numbers representing military exploits.

Sure enough, it was the next day.

The Qin army that went out on the expedition came back, and they were all happy, all of them were happy, and the carriage behind them was full of human heads, and the dirty blood had already dyed the body black and red.

In this battle, the Qin army won a complete victory, killing 4,000 Wei troops, capturing more than 2,000 people, and thousands of routs fleeing in all directions.

The four thousand heads were piled up in the open space in front of Daliang City, and the bloody atmosphere was overwhelming, not only scaring the Wei people on the city wall to tremble, but even Zhao Tuo's eyelids jumped.

This is 4,000 lives, and now it has become the meritorious service of the Qin people's promotion.

After this battle, I don't know how many people can be promoted to the next level, and it is not surprising that the value of the title has been seriously depreciated in the past two years.

As for the 2,000 Wei prisoners, they were all driven by the Qin people to dig up mud and contribute to the flooding of Daliang City.

The Wei forces around Daliang City suffered a blow from this battle and suffered serious setbacks.

Ningling Jun Wei Ji fled to Suiyang City in the Song Dynasty with his subordinates in one go, and did not dare to come out again.

The Wei forces gathered near Chen Liu were also frightened enough, and many Wei generals directly led the troops to retreat, not daring to mention the matter of King Qin.

Under such circumstances, the water conservancy project of the Qin army was progressing smoothly.

Artificial ditches and chasms are dug through.

At that moment, Zhao Tuo stood on the high ground, watching the water of the chasm pour down the ditch, slamming into the north wall of Daliang City, and then the waves of water scattered and spread, enveloping the entire city in the water.

Suddenly, Zhao Tuo heard a wail from Daliang City.

This is just the beginning.

The chasm is just a canal, and it is difficult to destroy the entire capital of Wei.

The 100,000 laborers of the Qin people were about to set off north again to dig the embankment of the great river, bringing even more terrible disasters.

And the Guanzhong Qin army, to which Zhao Tuo belonged, received a new order.

General Wang Ben is a good general who understands people's hearts.

His elite soldiers ate meat, and they also gave these robes who came from afar to support the digging to drink a sip of broth.

The Marquis of Huan Zhao stood in the military tent, with a smile on his face, and excitedly announced to his generals.

"The city of Great Liang has been flooded, and there is no need for us to dig here."

"General Wang has given an order for me to lead my army eastward and lead you and others to attack the counties in the eastern part of Wei."

"Gentlemen, this opportunity for meritorious service promotion has come!"
