Even though there are almost no civilians in Yingdu City, there are still palace servants, servants of nobles, and improvised armies... There are all kinds of people, and there are nearly 100,000 people.
It is almost impossible to evacuate overnight.
Therefore, Xiong Wuliang issued a strict order - no one is allowed to carry any property. When people leave, things stay behind.
In this way, people can be evacuated as quickly as possible.
The dense crowd was silent and lined up to pass quickly through the city gate - the heavily armed warriors of Quyang's new army were standing on the side. If anyone made any noise, they would all be slapped on the head and face with a whip.
After leaving the city from the south gate, Navy Ping'a had been waiting here for a long time.
The naval warships originally loaded with all kinds of heavy ordnance had already removed all the water combat equipment such as bed crossbows and giant wooden bats - freeing up a lot of free space.
In the darkness, Chu people boarded the boat one after another.
By the time the sky turned slightly white, the entire Ying capital city had been relocated.
Xiong Wuliang stood on the city wall of Yingdu with a complex expression on his face and remained silent for a long time.
Shaohu came in a hurry, cupped his hands and said: "My lord, the city is empty!"
Xiong Wuliang said 'hmm'.
In one night, nearly 100,000 people were secretly evacuated without alerting the Qin, Wei and Han coalition forces... which is rare in ancient and modern times.
Zhao Hua also walked to Xiong Wuliang's side, looking struggling.
Xiong Wuliang: "Has everything been arranged?"
Zhao Hua replied softly: "Report to the Lord - everything is arranged according to your wishes."
Looking closely, the poisonous man's body was clearly trembling slightly.
After a while, Zhao Hua gritted his teeth and said, "Junhou... why don't you think about it again?"
Xiong Wuliang shook his head slowly and firmly: "I have made up my mind."
"The Qin, Wei, and Han coalition forces in front of us owe countless blood debts on our land of Chu."
"No matter how much the price is paid...we can never let the countries in the world feel that after offending our country of Chu and killing the civilians of our country of Chu, we can finally go home alive and well."
A few simple sentences have shown Xiong Wuliang's murderous intention.
There is no doubt that this Marquis of Quyang wants to destroy all the 280,000 Qin, Wei and Han coalition forces in front of him!
Also... the anger in Xiong Wu's conscience has been suppressed for a long time.
Zhao Hua was speechless and could only silently hold up his hands.
Xiong Wuliang turned around and let Xiao Hei put a thick black bear skin cloak on him, which effectively reduced the cold brought by late autumn: "Let's go, it's time for us to leave."
…
The next morning.
The soldiers of the Qin, Wei, and Han alliance got up from their simple beds, gritting their teeth and cursing the coolness of the morning in their hearts.
Although winter has not yet entered, the mornings in late autumn are quite cold.
The soldiers reluctantly crawled out of their warm beds and tidied up one by one.
According to General Sima's arrangements - today is the day for a large-scale attack on the city!
It's time to end this!
The captain came to the group of soldiers under his command and conveyed Sima Cuo's general order without hesitation: "The captain of the state has an order - today, attack the capital of Ying!"
"After the city is broken, the three armies are allowed to plunder the city for three days!"
"You can use the money and women in the city as you please!"
The soldiers cheered loudly, and their excitement made them feel that the coldness of the morning had been swept away: "Break Yingdu! A three-day plunder!"
"Conquer the capital of Ying and plunder it for three days!"
"Conquer the capital of Ying! A three-day plunder!"
Sima Tso stood on a chariot, wearing an extremely ordinary piece of armor issued by the Qin army's low-level generals. He held a rare and slender unsheathed copper sword in his hand. There was no crown on his head, but a simple The ground tilted her hair into a bun that was customary for Qin people.
A long bow was hung on his waist, and behind him were Bai Qi, Gongsun Xi, Bao Yuan and other generals.
Under the banner of Manjuan, Sima Cuo is majestic!
Looking at the towering Yingdu city wall in front of me, even though the city is as deep as Sima Cuo, I can't help but feel excited at this moment!
This is the royal city of Chu State!
Conquer the enemy's royal city and destroy the enemy's country... This is a temptation that no general can resist! This is a great achievement! A supreme honor!
Today, the fierce attack on Yingdu officially begins!
Sima Cuo was too lazy to make any more attempts to persuade him to surrender, and simply waved his hand: "Array up!"
The horns of the horns blew out a long and drawn-out sound, which seemed thick and long in the early morning mist - all 280,000 Qin, Wei and Han coalition forces arrived, a sea of people, boundless.
Sima Cuo's Chinese army flag wavered slightly, and crazy responses sounded from all over the mountains and plains.
"Conquer the capital of Ying! A three-day plunder!"
"Kill Mi Liang! Fight! Fight! Fight!"
Bai Qi suddenly clasped his fists: "The morale of the army is available! Please give the order to attack the city!"
Sima Cuo nodded slightly and ordered in a deep voice: "Go forward!"
The five phalanxes at the head advanced slowly - these were 50,000 soldiers.
About five hundred steps outside the city wall, the five phalanxes stood still, and then the shield wall in the front row separated passages, and catapults were pushed out one after another.
The catapults were equipped with large and small fire oil cans.
This was the result of the Qin, Wei, and Han kingdoms trying their best to obtain so much kerosene - although the quantity was not enough to burn down the entire capital of Ying, it could definitely play a certain role.
Looking at the city wall of Yingdu in the distance, there was an eerie silence.
Sima Cuo's pupils shrank: "Wait a minute!"
Although there are many flags and figures on the city wall...but it seems that Xiong Wuliang's missing corner flag is not seen?
Something's wrong!
"Choose a hundred-man team and go investigate." Sima Cuo ordered.
This is really a life-threatening chore... The selected centurion of the Qin army's cavalry had a mournful face, leaving his last words to the world, and then had to turn back three times to walk towards the city wall of Yingdu... …
After a while, he returned happily.
"Report to the captain! There are straw men on the city walls! The Chu people are suspected to have abandoned the city and fled!" The centurion grinned widely, with happiness written all over his face.
Sima was confused!
What?
Bai Qi, Gongsun Xi, and Bao Yuan were all stunned!
What?
I was already prepared for a desperate attack... I expected it to be a bloody battle with heavy losses, and I don't know how many brave athletes will die on the battlefield...
Chu people, escaped?
It was like a punch on cotton!
Sima Cuo lost his composure. He suddenly slapped the armrest of the chariot in front of him and shouted angrily: "Nonsense! Yingdu, the royal city of the Chu people, is actually the backbone of the spirit and the seat of the Sheji Ancestral Temple... How could Mi Liang do this? Just abandon it?"
The Great Qin State Captain felt once again that Xiong Wuliang was not following the rules...
When everyone thought they were going to fight to the death, Xiong Wuliang actually escaped...
Bai Qi thought about lightning in his mind and suddenly said: "Guo Lieutenant, be careful - that little Mi Liang is extremely cunning, be careful of fraud!"
Sima Cuo nodded solemnly: "That's true - send a team of a thousand people to enter the city first!"
"Take a look - are those Chu people really gone?"
…
