"Kingdom" records: In the northwest of Qin, there were people from the Rong Kingdom who wore their hair in left ruffles. Their clan regarded death in battle as auspiciousness. Their illness was unknown, and they were fierce and bloodthirsty.
The ancestors of the Shang family once strengthened the defense against Rong and Di, but they all adopted a defensive policy, so foreign invasion never stopped.
In the middle period, the Rong and Di forces experienced a transition and became powerful. They carried out large-scale invasions of the Central Plains, massacred Qin people, burned, killed and raped.
When it came to Shang Rui, he was debauched and immoral, the world was in chaos, and the disasters caused by foreign enemies reached their peak during this period.
In the first year of Emperor Ping's reign, the Western Rong king annexed the Di, Qiang and other Rong tribes and began to invade further to the southeast.
The next year, Qin lost twelve cities and its people were massacred.
In the sixth year of Emperor Ping's reign, Xiao Yuan was appointed governor of Qinzhou. In the autumn of the same year, he began to counterattack Xirong and signed the Black Stone Plains Treaty.
In the ninth year, the King of Xirong took advantage of the chaos among the Central Plains countries to tear up the treaty and invaded Qin Pass again. In view of the world situation at that time, Xiao Yuan temporarily adopted a policy of repelling.
Now, the State of Qin has achieved absolute victory in the Central Plains War. King Xiao Yuan of Qin has begun to mobilize heavy troops to prepare to completely eliminate hidden dangers.
September sixteenth.
Inside the Qin Pass, the soldiers of the border army were already ready to go. They wore black armor and red tassels, and there were many long halberds.
The supplies and food from Beiling had already been delivered. The governor of the county, Zheng Pei, also came in person. Dressed in official uniform, he stood at the front of the team and raised his hands towards Yang Heng and said: "Although the Xirong are vicious, general, we will definitely win this battle." ! Strengthen my great Qin Tianwei!"
"I would like to borrow Mr. Zheng's kind words." Yang Heng clasped his fists, then waved sideways and said, "Let's go!"
The first line of troops was led by Wang He, a partial general, who led five thousand troops to serve as suspicious soldiers, with the spearhead pointed directly at Quanqiu.
The straight-line distance between Quanqiu and Qinguan is not very far. It can also be said to be the border area on the Xirong side.
Outside the Qin Pass, due to the military deterrence of the Qin Army in recent years, the people of Xirong did not dare to go south to herd horses, so the army did not encounter anyone along the way. mound.
At this time, as the Qin army entered the crowd gathering area, countless Xirong people began to scream and run for their lives. Many people were still herding sheep near Quanqiu. When they saw black armor and red tassels, they screamed strangely and turned around. run.
Quanqiu is equivalent to a county in the Central Plains. Today's Xirong is no longer the scattered tribe it was originally. Instead, it has learned how to build city walls very early. Although it is not as strong as a city in the Central Plains, it has begun to take shape as a town.
At this moment, Wang He did not approach the city with troops. Instead, he lay down at Quanqiu thirty miles away and sent a large number of sentries to prepare to find out the general situation first.
The intelligence was quickly sent back. As soon as the spy knelt down on one knee, Wang He was the first to ask: "Can we find out the military situation in Quanqiu? How is their defense and what is their strength?"
He asked questions one after another. The spy swallowed and said with some hesitation: "This... the sentry cavalry cannot enter the dog hill. The specific military situation is unknown. I only know that the nearby Xirong people have fled into the city, and no Xirong troops have been found. Support the troops.”
This cannot be blamed on the spies. Due to the differences in clothing and language, Qin Jun's meticulous work could not sneak in.
"Well..." Wang He pondered for a moment and said, "Continue to keep an eye on the situation north of Quanqiu. If there are reinforcements from Xirong, report them immediately."
"No!" The spy clasped his fists and retreated.
After they left, Wang He glanced at several thousand captains, frowned slightly and said: "We don't know how many Xirong troops are stationed in Quanqiu City, nor do we know how prepared they are. Otherwise, let's give it a try. try?"
After hearing this, everyone first looked at each other, and then one of the captains said: "The mission of my unit is to attract the attention of Xirong, lure their reinforcements over, and create an opportunity for the main force to raid the Black Stone. There is no need at all. We have only five thousand soldiers to capture Quanqiu, so there is no room for failure."
"You are too cautious!" As soon as he finished speaking, someone else said: "Now we are only thirty miles away from Quanqiu, and even though he is here, we have to beat him no matter what! We don't know the Xirong army in Quanqiu. It is also impossible for the opponent to know our situation despite the strength of our troops. As long as we beat him, they will definitely think that we are the main force! This will have a better containment effect!"
"This..." The captain didn't know what to say.
Wang He took a deep breath and his eyes sternly said: "That's right! No matter how hard he is, he has to break into the tiger's den!"
After saying that, he looked around and yelled: "Listen to the order!"
The five captains trembled and all looked at him.
"In two hours, launch a full-scale attack on Inuqiu!"
"I have the order!" Everyone clasped their fists in unison.
Wang He is also a young man who joined the army. He started out as an infantryman, followed Xiao Yuan and participated in many battles. He is almost 30 this year, and he is the type who fights at will, full of blood and no sloppiness. .
The order was issued, and the five thousand Qin troops began to advance rapidly. Two hours later, they arrived at Quanqiu City.
This city is not that solid and tall, more like it is surrounded by stones.
Outside the city, five thousand soldiers formed a neat square formation, forming a horizontal and vertical line.
They were all dressed in black armor and red tassels, with halberds standing in great numbers and flags flying.
Looking at the Qin army outside, the Xirong soldiers guarding the wall had their Adam's apples slipping and couldn't help but secretly swallow. Many of their faces had already turned pale, and cold sweat was flowing out of their foreheads.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
As the exciting war drums sounded, Wang He, wearing a general's armor and a cape, fiercely drew out his sword and pointed forward:
"attack--"
"Kill--"
Shocking shouts rang out, and the Qin army's infantry began to pick up their halberds and swords, and rushed towards Quanqiu City crazily.
The ladders one after another were carried by the soldiers and moved quickly.
The Xirong generals on the city had already widened their eyes. After reacting, they screamed: "Quick! Shoot the arrow! Shoot the arrow!"
Arrows from both sides shot back and forth in the sky.
From time to time, people were shot by stray arrows and fell to the ground howling miserably.
Similarly, the Xirong soldiers also fell off the city wall one after another.
Soon, ladders were set up all over the city wall, and the infantry of the Qin army began to climb up crazily with swords in their mouths, using their hands and feet, ignoring the arrows above their heads.
At the city gate, vertical shields formed a small shield array, surrounding the siege vehicles.
When the war broke out, we wouldn't know if we didn't fight. Once there was a fight, the shortcomings of the Xirong soldiers were immediately apparent. Many of them were afraid of the enemy and afraid of fighting. Their arrows were scattered and scattered, and they were not prepared to defend the city.
Wang He reacted immediately! The opponent's defense is insufficient!
As a battle-hardened general, if he couldn't see this during a siege, then he, Wang He, wouldn't have to direct the battle.
His eyes widened instantly. In shock, he pointed his sword excitedly and shouted: "Kill! All soldiers must kill the enemy bravely! Break through the dog hill in one fell swoop!"
"Starting from this general! No one is allowed to take a step back! Anyone who violates this rule will be killed immediately!"
He shouted excitedly and took the lead, joining the siege team.
