There are also some ministers who believe that the Chu army is still the most powerful among the armies of the seven countries. Ning Guo has attacked other countries, and now once Chu takes action, it will definitely not give up. They suggest that Ning Guo cedes its territory to seek peace and sends envoys to Chu. country, begging Chu to withdraw its troops.
Of course, some ministers also stood up and accused those who wanted to make peace, saying that they were spies of the Chu State.
Qin Zheng knew that, as far as the court was concerned, ministers who stood up and spoke upright and awe-inspiring words at any time were not necessarily loyal ministers, and ministers who spoke confused and unpleasant words were not necessarily sycophants or spies.
That's what the court is all about. Here, some people don't talk, some like to talk, some talk nonsense, and some say righteous words.
After hearing it a lot, Qin Zheng got used to it.
But Qin Zheng knows that the most important thing has always been her, because she is Ning's father, and she is the one who makes the decisions in the court.
Qin Zheng must know who can listen to what she says, how much she can listen to, and how to do everything, because every decision she makes is related to the entire Ningguo.
It is her duty as King Ning to lead Ningguo to prosperity and protect Ningguo.
"Master, you will definitely succeed, and I will do everything I have to do, and I will definitely do it well!" Qin Zheng's voice was full of perseverance.
Xie Yunxiao entered Handan City. The bustling and bustling place was even worse than before.
The former King of Zhao and the former Prince Zhao Qian are still in Handan City. They have become rich and idle people. It seems that everything in the world has nothing to do with them.
Today, Xiang Liang's army has arrived at Handan City, and the atmosphere in the city has become much tense.
The general guarding here once served as the deputy commander of Xuanjia Guard. His surname is Jia and his given name is Qi.
Jia Qi has cultivated in the Seventh Realm, and now there are five thousand soldiers in Handan City.
Xiang Liang's 100,000-strong army, under such circumstances, it would only take a moment for Handan City to be breached.
After all, Xiang Liang has been too fierce along the way.
"Master, if Handan City is breached, it will be troublesome!" Liu Qi said.
Xie Yunxiao said: "Don't worry, Xiang Liang can't defeat Handan City!"
Liu Qi was stunned for a moment. He didn't know how Xie Yunxiao would resist the Chu army, but it was an indisputable fact that Handan City only had 5,000 troops at the moment.
Not long after, Xie Yunxiao came to Yayuan.
He asked his men to prepare lunch. After lunch, Xie Yunxiao did nothing. Instead, he took a chair and lay in the yard to bask in the sun.
The former palace of King Zhao is now just an ordinary residence. King Zhao and Zhao Qian still live here.
"Father, I heard that Chu's army has already reached the outside of the city!" Zhao Qian walked into the house and walked opposite King Zhao.
King Zhao glanced at Zhao Qian and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"If we seize the opportunity and cooperate with the Chu army inside and outside, we will definitely defeat the Ningguo army. After all, there are only 5,000 troops in Handan City now!" Zhao Gan said.
"Then what?" King Zhao asked.
When Zhao Qian heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, "Then?"
"The State of Zhao has become history, and there is nothing you or I can do to change it. The city of Handan was breached, and it belongs to the State of Chu. It has nothing to do with us. In this case, why should we get involved in this muddy water?" King Zhao said.
"Is my father really willing to live like this?" Zhao Qian said.
"Don't call me father in the future. If the Kingdom of Zhao is not here, where will the king come from?" King Zhao said calmly.
Zhao Qian's eyes were full of unwillingness. He suddenly fell silent, but he didn't know what to say.
"Perhaps it would be great to sit on a mountain and watch tigers fight!" Zhao Qian said.
King Zhao did not speak, but picked up the teapot and poured a lot of tea into his own cup.
At the foot of Handan City, Xiang Liang stood at the center of the army. Looking at the city in front of him, excitement filled his eyes.
Xiang Liang has already found out that there are only 5,000 troops in Handan City. Today, Xiang Liang will definitely defeat Handan City.
He took a deep breath, drew out the sword from his waist, and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, capture Handan City, let's have lunch in the city!"
When the Chu soldiers heard this, they were all excited.
At this time, Xiang Liang and many Chu soldiers were extremely arrogant, as if Handan City was already within their grasp.
The territory of the State of Zhao was conquered by the State of Ning. With the capture of Handan City, a large area of the State of Zhao's land will soon be included in the territory of the State of Chu.
"Kill!" The generals who were rushing in front rushed out at extremely fast speeds. They took the siege equipment and rushed to the foot of Handan City.
Jia Qi stood on the city wall. When the Chu army came within shooting range, he waved his hand gently, and the archers who had been prepared for a long time greeted the Chu soldiers with arrows.
Although there were only five thousand Ningguo soldiers on Handan City, they were all archers at this time, and they drew their bows and set arrows very fast. The dense arrows were like a heavy rain.
The Chu soldiers who were charging ahead were unable to move forward at this time.
When Xiang Liang saw this, there was a look of shock in his eyes and his breathing was very rapid. The Chu army was invincible and overwhelming. Could it be that they couldn't take Handan City with only 5,000 people?
"The shield soldiers come forward and the army advances as a whole!" Xiang Liang shouted loudly.
In an instant, the army changed its formation, and the shield soldiers stepped forward to resist the arrows of Ning's soldiers with a large shield array.
"It's disrespectful to greet us with arrows, but not to return!" After Xiang Liang advanced a certain distance, he asked the soldiers to push forward the giant crossbows that had been prepared.
The range of this giant crossbow is far beyond that of ordinary arrows. Xiang Liang only used the giant crossbow at this time, just to push the distance forward. His purpose was not to attack the Ningguo soldiers on the wall, but to attack the entire Handan City. All destroyed.
The arrows fired from the giant crossbow flew out, the sound of breaking through the air spread, and they shot towards Handan City.
The formations in Handan City had already disappeared when Ning Guo attacked the city. At this time, there would naturally be no formations.
Huge arrows fell on the city wall, and the sound of rumbling spread. Cracks suddenly appeared in this solid city. Many soldiers on the city wall were hit and died.
"General, their giant crossbows must be destroyed, otherwise Handan City may be crushed by them!" said a general next to Jia Qi.
Jia Qi nodded. He looked at the location of the giant crossbow, then looked under the city gate, and said with a smile: "This Xiang Liang, in order to break through the Handan city wall, actually pushed the giant crossbow so close, let's see how I can destroy it." Drop his giant crossbow!"
The sound came out, and before the soldier could react, Jia Qi led 3,000 troops, opened the city gate, and rushed out.
Because the distance was too close, it was difficult to adjust the position of the giant crossbow. In a short period of time, it was impossible to aim at Jia Qi and others who rushed out of Handan City.
Xiang Liang looked very ugly when he saw this. He ordered other archers to draw their bows and set arrows, and shoot them at Jia Qi and others.
Unfortunately, it was a little slow after all.
Not long after, the soldiers led by Jiaqi came to the giant crossbow.
To stop the giant crossbow, the best way is to kill the Chu soldiers who control the giant crossbow.
Judge acted quickly, and in less than a moment, most of the people who controlled the giant crossbow died in his hands.
At the same time, the soldiers of the Ning State who followed Jia Qi began to smash the giant crossbows. In less than a moment, the Chu Kingdom's giant crossbows turned into a pile of scrap metal.
At this time, the Chu army's shield soldiers and spears and spears formed a formation and surrounded him. Jiaqi's three thousand soldiers were surrounded in an instant.
"Jia Qi, you are really stupid. You dare to leave the city in order to destroy my giant crossbow. Today is the day you die!" Xiang Liang's voice sounded like thunder, with a fierce momentum.
But the three thousand soldiers led by Jia Qi were not affected at all.
Under the leadership of Jia Qi, they attacked from left to right, making the shield array unable to close.
At this time, Jia Qi reined up his horse. The horse neighed and flew with all four hooves. He crossed the shield formation and rushed into the Chu army.
Jia Qi made a decisive move, wielding a spear in his hand. None of the Chu soldiers could stand a chance. In less than a moment, dozens of them died in his hands.
At the same time, the shield array that had not been closed was instantly punched out with a hole.
Three thousand soldiers of the Ning State, under the leadership of Jia Qi, killed the Chu State soldiers and turned them upside down.
But Jia Qi finally fought a fast battle. There were too many Chu troops, and naturally this situation could not be maintained for a long time. After a few rounds, he led Ning's army back to Handan City.
"Damn it!" Xiang Liang's face was very ugly, and he continued to command the army to attack.
The arrows in Handan City have been almost used up.
Jia Qi did not let the soldiers continue to use arrows. Instead, he waited for the Chu army to come under the city wall, and then greeted them with rolling logs and boulders.
Many Chu soldiers suddenly let out shrill screams, and the archers behind fired arrows to prevent the Ning soldiers on the wall from releasing huge rocks and rolling logs.
But at this time, the Ningguo soldiers used shields to block the gaps in the city wall and built a high defensive formation. Naturally, the arrows shot at them could not do anything to them.
Under the city wall, the Chu soldiers had already begun to attack the city gate.
Seeing this, Jia Qi gritted his teeth and ordered the soldiers to come forward and pour down the oil that had been burning hot for a long time.
The Chu army that arrived under the city wall was affected and instantly let out a wailing sound. This cry was much more horrifying than when they were transporting rolling logs and boulders.
But it wasn't over yet. Judge was really a ruthless man. He took out a burning rocket and shot it. The already burning oil instantly burned.
Suddenly, the city below Handan suddenly turned into a sea of fire.
The fire was so strong that the Chu soldiers had no way to approach the city.
The giant crossbow had been destroyed, and the soldiers had no way to reach Handan City. In desperation, Xiang Liang could only pay the gold and withdraw his troops temporarily.
Xiang Liang's attack finally pushed back the Chu army, but it was obviously only temporary.
After the Chu army retreated, Jia Qi immediately ordered his soldiers to start reorganizing and repairing the cracks in the city.
"General, we only have five thousand troops. Although the Chu army has temporarily retreated, they will definitely come again. Now we don't have many arrows left, and there are not many boulders, rolling logs, etc., how can we face Chu The country's second and third wave of attacks?" a general said to Judge.
