"Who's stopping me?"
Ying Zheng, who was joking and joking with Zhang Ji just a moment ago, suddenly stopped smiling, opened the corner of the car curtain and asked.
Gai Nie, who was holding a riding crop in his hand, looked at the seventy or eighty black-clothed men with their faces covered and carrying sharp knives in front of them. Gujing Bubo's eyes were still calm, as if they were a lake that would never be stirred up.
Ge Nie's eyes swept over the man in black in front of him, and he turned his head slightly and whispered to Ying Zheng in the car: "As expected, they should be the dead soldiers of Zhao, Wei, Yan, and Chu."
In fact, as the successors of Guigu Zongheng, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang are not really incompetent in other aspects, such as lobbying, art of war and politics. It is impossible for contemporary Gui Guzi not to impart these knowledge to Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.
"To attack the plan with a horizontal sword in order to gain advantage is called 捭; to attack with a vertical sword in force to achieve reality is to close. Those who attack with a horizontal sword are the way of heaven and earth."
Guiguzi's teaching methods can be seen from the first downhill trial that Guiguzi arranged for Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang. He started from the two's love for swords, and used swordsmanship and swordsmanship to teach them how to be human beings. , governance, leading troops, etc.
And Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang did not live up to Gui Guzi's teachings. For example, in the art of war, Wei Zhuang killed Ji Wuye in the original timeline and replaced him as the Korean general. Under the leadership of Nei Shiteng, He also held out for a long time under the attack of 100,000 Qin troops.
After the fall of Korea, Wei Zhuang launched a rebellion in Xinzheng. He used a small number of old Korean troops to defend Xinzheng Gucheng. They held on for three months under the attack of more than 100,000 Qin troops. It was not until they reached a deal with Changping Jun that they took the initiative to withdraw. After leaving Xinzheng, it was given to the Qin army.
You must know that when Wei Zhuang launched the Xinzheng Rebellion, Wei Zhuang faced not only Nei Shiteng, but also a number of famous old and new generals from the Qin State, including Yang Duanhe and others. So it can be seen from this that Wei Zhuang is definitely a famous general in the world at least in terms of military.
Therefore, when facing these masked dead men in black, Genie could tell at a glance that these people were dead men from various countries in Shandong other than South Korea.
Even if Ji Wuye, Bai Yifei and others wanted to kill Ying Zheng, they would never let Ying Zheng die in Xinzheng. That would be too grand.
The most appropriate thing would be to wait for Yingzheng to leave Xinzheng, take action in South Korea outside Xinzheng, and then blame the Shandong countries and pretend to be innocent.
The countries in Shandong had completely opposite ideas to Ji Wuye, which was to take action in Xinzheng and pass the blame for Ying Zheng's murder to South Korea and Ji Wuye.
In this way, they can draw South Korea, which has repeatedly refused to join the alliance, into the alliance, or they can take advantage of Qin's death to send troops; on the other hand, they can also let South Korea attract Qin's hatred, and even if the alliance loses, they will not What an impact they had.
Therefore, those who dare to take action in Xinzheng can only be dead soldiers sent by the six countries.
And those who die are desperadoes.
Most of the dead warriors are knights in the martial arts world.
After all, not all rangers are as happy to take care of the people as the rangers led by the Mo family. There are also rangers who will sacrifice their lives for the princes and nobles for the sake of glory and wealth.
However, even though the group of people in front of him were all desperadoes, Ganie remained calm and composed, sitting quietly on the carriage and slowly putting down the riding whip in his hand.
The two hundred black-armored iron troops brought by Li Si also raised their long swords, automatically formed their formations, and were ready to charge.
"I will go and relieve the king's worries."
Gai Nie holds the long sword at his waist in his left hand. It is the Qingshuang Sword given by Yingzheng himself. It is a sharp blade in the royal family treasure house of the Qin Dynasty. Although it is not as famous as the top ten famous swords, it is still among the famous swords. within the scope.
Genie jumped off the carriage, holding his sword and bowing slightly towards the carriage.
As bright as the green frost on an autumn day, the green frost that looked dazzling in the sunlight was pulled out of the sheath with Gai Nie's movements, and the crisp sound of the sword seemed to be the roar of this famous sword before it drank blood.
A gust of autumn wind blew up the sand on the road. The flying sand and rocks flew between Ge Nie and the group of masked dead soldiers, blocking the sight of both sides. No one dared to step forward rashly, as if they were fighting between the two sides. prelude.
And once this "prologue" disappears, it will be a life-and-death fight.
Gai Nie held the Green Frost Sword in his hand tightly, and the blade of the sword glowed with cold light, as if it would turn into a ray of green light and take away the lives of the masked dead soldiers in front of him.
"Brother Gai Nie, there is no need to let the blood of these young men stain the blue frost sword given by the king himself."
Just when Gai Nie was about to draw his sword, Zhang Ji's voice came from the carriage.
Gai Nie's movement of holding the sword stagnated. Did Zhang Ji make arrangements in advance?
He stared slightly, scanned the surroundings, and released a stream of internal energy that melted into the air, sensing the surrounding situation.
But even if Gai Nie searched all the places within 500 steps around him, he could not find anyone except them.
Therefore, even Gai Nie couldn't guess what Zhang Ji had planned.
And at the moment when the flying sand and rocks in front of them were about to disperse, the masked dead soldiers held their swords tightly in their hands, bent their waists and gathered strength, preparing to rush towards the carriage...
Bang!
Everyone heard the violent sound of breaking through the air from a distance, but they couldn't help but feel a little confused.
Before they could react, as the sound of breaking through the air got closer, the screams of their companions around them also reached their ears.
In the jungle, Wei Zhuang, who was observing the safety of his senior brother, slowly put away the shark-tooth sword in his hand. When he guessed whose handiwork it was, he could not help but sneer with disdain.
In his eyes, at this time, you should draw your sword and kill the enemy, stand among the broken limbs and listen to the enemy's wailing. Only in this way can you be superior to these enemies, and only then can you be worthy of being the heir of Guigu.
"Oh, that's great, he actually arranged a siege bed..."
Before the word "crossbow" was uttered, another burst of sound broke through the air.
Wei Zhuang's eyes that were colder than ice and snow looked at the black spots in the sky, and for the first time a trace of "astonishment" appeared in his eyes. At the same time, his senior brother Gai Nie's Gujing Bubo His eyes seemed to have set off a shocking wave.
This time, everyone saw it clearly.
Those were long spears flying from a distance!
No, that's not a spear!
That's a giant crossbow!
"Spread out! Spread out! Don't get together!"
"I'll take your mother's siege crossbow from someone!"
"Your mother is a maid, what's the matter?"
Blood and flesh splattered, because of this dense crowd, each giant crossbow arrow could take away at least two masked dead soldiers, and there was definitely no whole corpse.
Gai Nie looked at the bloody scene in front of him, and even though his mind was as strong as his own, a drop of cold sweat could not help but fall on his forehead.
He guessed that Zhang Ji might have arranged for crossbowmen, but even the Qin Crossbow of Qin State and the Jin Crossbow of South Korea had a maximum range of only 600 steps, and the effective range was less than 400 steps at most. Unexpectedly...
No wonder there was no backup arranged by Zhang Ji within 500 steps, because this guy directly deployed ten siege crossbows with an effective range of 800 steps!
As the instigator, Zhang Ji naturally couldn't hear the curses outside. All sounds were covered by screams and the sound of breaking the air.
However, Ying Zheng and Li Si looked at Zhang Ji a little strangely. After all, Zhang Ji's arrangement was somewhat exaggerated.
In later generations, this would be equivalent to using an anti-tank gun to "snipe" ordinary enemy infantry.
What? Isn't this thing called a sniper?
Tell me, if you can aim, use a large caliber, and kill the enemy with one shot, isn’t that called sniping?
In the same way, the siege bed crossbow also has the word "crossbow" in it, so why isn't it called a crossbow?
Isn't it just that the caliber is 100 million points larger, the range is 100 million points farther, and the power is 100 million points stronger?
Doesn't it kill the enemy with one shot?
What? Too cruel?
There are no military courts in this era, so who can do anything?
Moreover, using these siege bed crossbows to kill these masked dead soldiers will definitely be considered a glorious burial!
This is no less than using coins to kill these dead soldiers.
As for where these bed crossbows came from?
Mohist military industry, you deserve it!
How do you think so many disciples of the Mohist family make a living?
Send one hundred thousand disciples out to farm like farmers?
There were many disciples, and there was a group of gold-swallowing beasts headed by Master Ban who were responsible for studying the Mohist non-offensive machine skills, and would also preside over non-offensive wars from time to time. Without massive funds, the Mohist family would have gone bankrupt long ago.
The way the Mo family makes money is naturally by selling various machinery and equipment. From casting farm tools, building houses to building cities, etc., as long as you can afford the money, the Moh family will do it.
As for ordnance, the Mo family would naturally receive some orders from time to time.
As for this small order of ten siege crossbows, it was also an urgent order. Originally, the Mohist family would not accept it, but Zhang Ji, who placed the order, was the leader of the Mohist family after all, and he gave thirty siege crossbows. Money!
Master Ben: He gave too much!
Therefore, Master Tongban, who was responsible for the casting of Mohist organs, resolutely accepted the order and personally supervised the production of the crossbows ordered by his beloved family members.
Thanks to this, the ten siege bed crossbows were not only completed in a short period of time, but were also delivered to the outskirts of Xinzheng quietly late at night using the mechanism of Suzaku, who was out and about during the day, and kindly and friendly taught the former enemy the Snare Killer. They learned how to use these siege bed crossbows conveniently and effortlessly, and even calibrated the shooting direction and angle for them.
As for the thoughts of the Snare Killers... To be honest, they have never fought such a rich battle in their eight lives. The crossbows sniped dozens of enemies from 800 steps away, and they also had pre-calibrated angles... Yes At that moment, they all had the urge to support Zhang Ji's rise to power and oust those old and immortal guys from Zhanri and Luowang.
Who wouldn't love such a boss who is a billionaire and is willing to spend money on armaments?
Not to mention this group of killers who snare the Korean branch, watching Zhang Ji deploying ten siege crossbows to deal with dozens of enemy dead soldiers... even the Six Sword Slaves and Zhanri. The master-level combat masters who were used to seeing life and death and a group of first-rate masters who were capable of killing in a trap also fell silent.
Zhenri always felt that the eyes of these guys on the side were not so friendly when they stared at him. It was obvious that the thoughts in the minds of the snare killers really resonated with them.
But Zhi Ri was not incomprehensible. After all... seeing this scene, he wanted to step down on his own initiative.
And inside the carriage
"Sir, this...this...is...too expensive?"
Ying Zheng looked at the bloody scene outside the carriage through the curtains, and he couldn't help but gulp down his saliva.
Of course, this is not a fear of blood and death.
The young masters of the Qin Dynasty had to kill a death row prisoner to practice their bravery before they reached adulthood, and the young Ying Zheng had also seen the bloody battlefield when the Qin Dynasty faced the last time the Five Kingdoms united.
He was shocked by Zhang Ji's financial resources and felt sorry for the giant crossbow arrows being fired one after another!
"It doesn't matter, it's just external possessions. I have plenty."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng's hand that put down the car curtain trembled slightly, and he forced a smile and said: "Then how do you plan to bring these siege crossbows back to Qin? I'm afraid I won't be able to go very far with these siege crossbows." If someone catches up, wouldn't it be an advantage to the enemy?"
"Of course not."
Zhang Ji's face was filled with a confident smile, as if he was a wise man strategizing, taking one step at a time and looking at the next three steps, and had already made arrangements in advance.
Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. It seemed that Zhang Ji was not too prodigal.
"Just burn it, I promise not to leave even a single part to the enemy!"
Listening to Zhang Ji's solemn assurance, Li Si couldn't help but pull out the sword from his waist and chop down this prodigal thing.
Zhang Ji thought that the two of them felt that it was too expensive for Zhang Ji, so he explained: "It doesn't matter. I am devoted to the country and regard money as dung. Your Majesty does not need to worry about me."
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and gave Zhang Ji a thumbs up.
He really wanted to say to the amiable gentleman in front of him: "You are noble and great!"
My maid, that’s all money!
You know, in order to build the canal supervised by Zheng Guo in Da Qin, the whole country tightened their belts. Even Ying Zheng could only eat one meal of meat every two days, but this man in front of him... ...treating money like dirt!
Ying Zheng even had a terrible thought in his mind. If this guy's house was ransacked, the Qin State should be able to take a big breath of relief.
But this thought only passed away in a flash. Ying Zheng took deep breaths continuously, closed his red eyes, and told himself to calm down. Maybe his husband was training his mind.
But Zhang Ji just glanced out the window through the car curtain and didn't care at all about the siege bed crossbows that were about to be burned.
He is really a big dog now.
There are no big expenses on weekdays, but there is a lot of income every month.
He has a 30% share of Zilanxuan. Ever since Zilanxuan was reformed in Zhangji, even the daily income is not enough to describe the booming business of Zilanxuan.
Then there was the 20% profit from paper and books given to him by the Mo family, and finally the "dowry" given to him by Chao Tide.
Over the years, Chao Tide has received countless rewards from King An of Han, and also granted countless lands and money to the Chao family in Xinzheng. The Chao family, which has risen with Chao Tide's status, has naturally expanded. Not only has its industry become more prosperous, but the Chao family has also become more and more prosperous. There are not too many people in Han Ting's office, and the bribes and embezzled property collected are not small. Naturally, he has accumulated countless wealth over time.
The total assets accumulated by the Chao family, which has sucked the blood of South Korea for sixteen years... It is no exaggeration to say that they are as rich as the country.
Afterwards, Chao Chao handed over all the Chao family's wealth to Zhang Ji, including the title deeds to all the land and houses.
As for the life and death of the other Chao family members?
What does that have to do with her?
She has not forgotten that these people tried to seize her family's property after her parents died. She had deliberately allowed these people to accumulate wealth for her over the years, but now they were just closing the net.
Zhang Ji, on the other hand, had no sense of guilt at all for such an act of openly taking advantage of a rich woman.
The tide feeds him, and he feeds the tide. This is reasonable and fair!
