The guests and hosts spent an exciting night introducing and listening to the war in Changping, and did not go back to sleep until the rooster crowed. After a short sleep, the drums on Zhi City sounded, and a new day began.
After a routine military call, all the people in Xiaoyi arranged their crowns and belts one by one. The five hundred swordsmen all held spears and formed a square formation, forming a forest of moving spears, all with black tassels on their spears. Then came two leather chariots, driven by Zheng Anping and Mang Wei. Bai Qi and Wang Lu were in one chariot, and Sima Jin and Wang Ling were in the other chariot. Pi Wan was not qualified to ride, so he followed behind on horseback. Behind them were a hundred horse-riding followers, but the leader was no longer Uncle Bai. They hold halberds in their hands, and their lineup is neat and majestic.
At the same time as the formation of troops in Xiaoyi, formations began to form outside Zicheng City. The first ones to set off were the swordsmen, each holding a halberd. They lined up ten steps each on both sides of the avenue until they reached the edge of Xiaoyi ten miles away, marking out the path forward for Bai Qi and his party. Outside the city of Zhi, the ministers, wearing their own clothes and wearing long swords, stood solemnly on both sides of the city gate. In front of the queue, there are seats facing each other. On both sides of the seat, there are drums, silk and bamboo, as well as fou and bottles unique to the Qin Dynasty.
Military envoys passed messages back and forth to ensure that the entire ceremony was flawless. When everything was ready, the five hundred swordsmen shouted loudly: "Qiu!" The sound shook the sky. After hearing this, the swordsmen from both sides also sent messages one by one: "Qi!" "Qi!" "Qi!"...
Over there in Zicheng, drums and music were blaring, and some people sang songs, but unfortunately they couldn't really hear them. After the Duke gave an order, the five hundred swordsmen raised their spears and marched towards Zhi City with neat steps. Pi Wan rode to lead, Zheng Anping and Mang Wei started the leather chariot at the same time, carrying four hard-working generals, and advanced slowly behind the queue. One hundred followers also rode horses and marched slowly in formation.
Because they had to keep up with the speed of horses and carts, the guided swordsman moved forward at a slow pace, and soon reached the gate of Zhi City. When he saw the seats in front of him, the Duke gave an order and the swordsmen spread out to both sides. Pi Wan rode on horseback and led the two carriages into everyone's sight. Everyone reined in their horses and dismounted.
Sitting on the seats were Zong Zheng and Wei Wei, and behind them was Young Master Yiren holding a broom. When the swordsmen dispersed completely, revealing Bai Qi and his party in the middle, the three of them stood up from their seats and came towards this side. On Bai Qi's side, Pi Wan was in front, and Bai Qi and the other four were behind. Zheng Anping and Mang Wei only stayed in the car and did not come forward. Naturally, Bai Qi and others' entourage could not come forward, and they all stayed with Zheng Anping. Behind Anping and others.
The two sides walked a long way before they met. What they said to each other could no longer be heard, but their postures were clear. It was obvious that Bai Qi was very moved by Zongzheng's ability to come to Zhi City in person, and paid tribute to him repeatedly; he also repeatedly handed over to the Weiwei. The three people behind Bai stood up and went forward in order to greet the three people. Finally, Young Master Yi Ren led the way with his broom, Zong Zheng and Wei Wei on the right, Bai Qi, Wang Lu, Sima Jin and Wang Ling on the left, and walked together to the front of the table. At this time, the music was louder, and all the ministers sang together: "The small Rong has been collected, and the five beams have been driven. The wandering circle threatens to drive, and the rain continues. The graceful hub is smooth, driving my Qiwei. Four Mu Kong Fu, six The bridle is in hand. The Qi is the middle, and the Li is the Qi. The dragon and the shield are combined, and the dragon is the dragon. When you think of a gentleman, you warm him like jade. How long will it last? I read it in a hurry!..." One song and three chants, curling up Continuously.
A long time ago, a waiter had brought up the wine master and the wine master, and presented them with a plate. After everyone washed their hands, Zongzheng personally held the position, scooping out the wine to reward Bai Qi. Bai Qi bowed down deeply, took the wine and poured it on the ground, and then scooped out the wine to reward Zong Zheng. Zongzheng rewarded Bai Qi again, Bai Qi rewarded the Weiwei again, and the Weiwei rewarded Wang Lu again. In this way, the five people who entered the city all turned around. The music became more exciting, and all the ministers sang: "How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, I repaired my spear and spear. I share the same enemy with you! How can I say that I have no clothes? I share the same robe with you. When the king raised an army, I repaired my spear. I am a spear and a halberd. I am working with you! How can I say that I have no clothes? I am wearing the same clothes as you. The king raised his army and repaired my armor. I am walking with you!" The wine master was carried aside, and the young master Yiren continued to lead the way with his broom. Zong Zheng and Wei Wei was on the right, and Bai Qi and his party were on the left. Amidst the chants of the ministers walking along the road, they entered the gate of Zhi City. The ministers on both sides of the city gate also entered the city, and the swordsmen began to withdraw from their posts. Zheng Anping and Mang Wei said to the followers behind them: "You guys have worked hard, please enter the camp!" They took a hundred followers to a posthouse in the south of the city. From here, you can hear the sound of gold and jade in the city.
The city gate opened again. Zongzheng bowed and asked Bai Qi and others to ascend the steps from the right. Bai Qi and others refused, and followed the Weiwei, ascending the steps from the left. Turning around Xiao Qiang, Zongzheng announced loudly: "Jun Wu'an has arrived!"
Bai Qi and others stood under the Xiao wall, adjusting their clothes. Bai Qi said loudly: "I, Bai Qi, come to see you according to the king's instructions!" Wang Gang, Sima Jin, Wang Ling and Pi Wan also signed up one by one to come.
Zong Zheng had already reached the lower steps of the hall and sang loudly: "Please~!"
Bai Qi and his entourage followed Zong Zheng and Wei Wei into the hall. Zong Zheng bowed and the five of them entered in order. They stood in front of the table on the right and saluted upward. The King of Qin returned the salute while sitting down and said: "Everyone, please sit down!"
Zong Zheng and Weiwei sat at the east banquet, Bai Qi and the other five sat at the west banquet, and Young Master Yiren stood at the side of the banquet with his hands down.
The King of Qin said: "The Qin army has been going on for a long time since it started its army last year. All the ministers have eaten dust and slept in bed. After experiencing the cold and heat, they have won the present victory. It is a blessing to the real ancestral temple! I can only congratulate all the ministers with game!"
Bai Qi and others avoided the banquet and worshiped: "The victory in Changping is the blessing of the ancestral temple. It is the virtue of the king and the strength of the soldiers. What a great contribution, I dare to thank the king!"
King Qin returned the greeting and said, "Please take a seat!"
The stranger walked out of the hall and ordered a banquet. There was the sound of gold and jade under the eaves, and a group of waiters stood in front of the steps, each carrying a food case. Behind him, a dancing girl stood in the court, dancing gracefully.
The stranger personally brought each case of food to everyone's table. After the food tables were in place, they scooped out wine for everyone one by one and stood beside the king's table with their hands down.
Bai Qi held the title and said, "I wish you long life for the King of Qin!"
The King of Qin raised his title and said: "Everyone in the world has the same longevity!"
Everyone drank it all. The stranger will add more wine. Zongzheng raised his title and said, "I would like to congratulate Lord Wu'an!"
Bai Qi said: "I dare not accept congratulations while I am in the crime camp. I would like to say goodbye!"
Zong Zhengdao: "Your Majesty, you are congratulated by everyone!"
Bai Qi said: "I would like to take the lead!"
Everyone drank it all in one gulp. Add another stranger.
The King of Qin said: "I have inherited the king's legacy for forty-eight years, and have been reciting the books of the ancients, but I have not won 400,000 people in one battle. You have accomplished great achievements that have never been seen in ancient times. I should congratulate you all!"
Everyone bowed down and said, "This is the virtue of a king!" They drank it all again. Another stranger is added.
The King of Qin said: "The ministers are talking about the state of war!"
When Bai Qi was about to speak, the Weiwei stretched out his hand to stop him. He left the table and went to the back, where he took out a roll of silk. When he opened it and looked at it, he saw a map of the mountains and rivers of Changping. Weiwei said: "Please tell me according to the picture."
Bai Qi got up first and started talking about his discovery of the Zhao army's activities outside Gaodu. How the Zhao army increased its troops time and time again, moved the defense line forward time and time again, and reinforced the barriers time and time again. Until last April, when Wang Hao led Qin troops to arrive, Within three months, they defeated Zhao Jun's many barriers and drove Zhao Jun to the east of Danshui. Then King Zhao used Zhao Kuo to Yi Lianpo, and Zhao Kuo counterattacked repeatedly, but failed to succeed and suffered heavy losses. After he became the general, he took advantage of the Zhao army's full westward movement and attacked Shicheng from the north, forming an encirclement of the Zhao army. From then on, Zhao's army ran out of food and the momentum of the counterattack became worse day by day. After persisting for forty-six days, they launched a desperate counterattack and almost reached Bai Qi, but in the end they were at the end of their efforts and could do nothing. Zhao Kuo died. He was taught to recruit the Zhao army and sent a cart of food to each Zhao camp. Due to long-term hunger, Zhao Jun ate too much food at one time, and all died from accumulation!
Wang Luan added: "We formed four teams. Four or five of them could not come out because of your superior's strength. My brother-in-law was killed in battle, his soldiers were damaged, and all of them failed to form an army."
Bai Qi then introduced his training process of Nanjun Army from the beginning. The Nanjun Army's tactics are easy to injure, but not conducive to killing; in previous battles, the Nanjun Army's tactics caused great damage to Zhao Jun. However, Zhao Jun seemed to have grasped the weakness of the Nanjun Army's fighting style and designed a style of trading in which injuries were exchanged for injuries and lives were exchanged for lives. The result was that Zhao Jun exchanged minor injuries for Qin Army's serious injuries, and exchanged serious injuries for Qin's people. The death in battle made it difficult for the Nanjun Army to deal with it at first. Half of a battalion of soldiers was lost in just one attack. Coupled with the torture of the epidemic, the Nanjun Army was very difficult to fight. However, they still persisted until the reinforcements arrived, and finally annihilated the incoming Zhao army and killed Zhao Kuo.
Bai Qi's introduction lasted for about an hour, and the music, singing and dancing in the hall gradually became quieter. The King of Qin asked the strangers to withdraw from the music and dance, and he gave Baiqi a jug of wine and praised a few of them. Then he turned to Wang Lu and said: "When you first entered Changping, your army was only 40,000, while Zhao's army was 400,000. How would you attack an army of 400,000 with 40,000 and conquer the strongholds one after another?"
Wang Lu then introduced his battle experience: At the beginning, he encountered only small groups of Qin army patrols. It was not until he went down the mountain and entered the valley that there was a Zhao army barrier, but the number of troops was not large, only four to five thousand people. With a crowd of forty thousand, it is not difficult to defeat them. Later, when the Zhao army came back, due to the narrow road in Changping, no more than 10,000 or 20,000 troops were sent out each time. More troops would be useless. So it is not difficult to deal with 40,000 people by yourself! But for the same reason, it is very difficult to attack Zhao Bi by yourself. Every time five thousand troops are sent out, they can only be regarded as a sudden attack, and they dare not make a serious attack at all.
The King of Qin also gave Wang Lu a prince of wine and praised him for fighting against the Qin army of 400,000 with an army of 40,000. This is comparable to Wu Zi’s battle in Hexi: "In the past, Wu Zi defeated Qin with 50,000 Wei soldiers and 500,000. Qin Shen thought that Shame on you. Now that I have to fight with you, it will be a shame!"
Sima Jin told the story of Zhao Kuo's entire army attacking the Zhao wall. When he attacked Zhao Bi, he attacked by himself, holding his back, and finally repelled the Zhao army's attack. With his swordsmen dispersed to various armies, everyone can achieve success in battle. The King of Qin also gave him wine and asked the swordsmen to report their military exploits in detail and award them with titles based on their merit.
Finally, there is the royal tomb. He introduced the process of capturing the defense line of Danzhuling Stone City. Everyone laughed when they talked about the process of driving the Zhao soldiers from behind the mountain to the mountain and then to the south of the mountain like a sheep. The King of Qin gave him a drink and said: "Without a minister occupying Shicheng, how can the Zhao army be defeated quickly?"
Wang Ling said: "Although I won, I didn't gain anything!"
The King of Qin said: "Zhao has an army of 400,000 men, and all the ministers are with you. How can you gain nothing?"
