Chapter 186 Battle of Qin Luo: Crossbow

On this vast plain coming from Luoyang, flags were fluttering everywhere, and countless chariots and soldiers gathered towards Zhaocheng.

The evil spirit soaring into the sky seemed to tear the sky apart, and the warm light could not dispel the coldness of the armor.

"well.

It’s still here.”

Wang Jian walked and stopped along the way and finally arrived at Zhaocheng.

Looking at the majestic city in front of him and recalling what he saw along the way, he knew that many Luo people had fled.

In the past, when Qin attacked Han and Wei, many Koreans and Wei people also fled to Zhao.

Then the State of Zhao was captured again, and some people fled to the State of Yan and Qi. They would rather live in exile than become Qin people.

Faced with this situation, Qin Wangzheng just said expressionlessly: "It is destined for the emperor to rule his subjects.

Although the world is big, I am under the command of Heaven, and there is no place that is not under my control.

These people don't know the destiny, and when the world is unified, they will be demoted to be slaves."

Wang Jian knew that Luo Guogong's palace was in the city not far away. The shining stigmata between their eyebrows was their identity symbol, and even disguise was impossible.

Wang Jian did not expect that the Luo Kingdom would be so tough. The Zhou royal family died in Sheji back then, and now the Luo Kingdom is still doing this.

They are truly worthy of being the descendants of King Wu and King Su, and truly worthy of being a legendary clan capable of establishing a thousand-year dynasty.

Faced with the current situation, he was a little hesitant.

He could only sigh slightly, and when his son Wang Ben saw this, he asked: "Father.

Are you worried that Luo State has a strong army and cannot defeat it?

But although the Luo army is strong, the Zhao city is thick.

However, Luo State has a small territory and a small population.

Even if we resist desperately, as long as we attack slowly, even if it takes several years, we will definitely win in the end."

Wang Jian shook his head and said: "It's not because of worries about war. There is an essential gap between the national strength of Luo State and Great Qin.

Moreover, among all the Xia kingdoms, no one dares to say that my father's ability to command troops can be easily surpassed.

For Da Qin, this is a must-win war.

But for generals, sometimes victory means defeat, and defeat means victory.

Lian Po and Li Mu of Zhao State were both victorious generals, but what was their final outcome?

Wu'an Jun Bai Qi did not receive the favor when he was victorious in every battle, but received it after defeat.

My father has been thinking about how to conquer Luo."

If Bai Qi was commanding the troops now, he would immediately launch an attack without saying a word and compete with the Luo clan.

Bai Qi only sees victory and defeat, and he is a very pure commander of the army.

Moreover, Bai Qi would be stubborn and offend, and he would leave angrily because of the monarch's distrust.

But Wang Jian is different. He is a hard person to win over.

Even though Qin Wangzheng gave him a sword, he also vowed to appease him and let him not have any worries.

He said so sincerely in front of Qin Wangzheng that he would bring victory back, and it seemed that he really wanted to die for Qin Wangzheng.

But he knew in his heart that these were all staged.

Qin Wangzheng is a real king, and it is impossible for him to trust himself, the commander-in-chief from the Six Kingdoms, so much.

All the performances were because Qin Wangzheng needed his own ability to command troops.

Moreover, looking at the fate of the talented people recruited by the Qin kings in the past dynasties, how could Wang Jian remain calm?

The same is true for Wang Jian. He joined the Qin Dynasty because he had no future among the Six Kingdoms, and he attacked the Six Kingdoms because he could gain glory and wealth.

In his heart, family and continuity and his own life safety are the most important.

Only then can we get the great cause of Qin.

And attacking Luo is nothing good.

In order to show his loyalty, he said eloquently that God's will is like a sword, and he was willing to be the one to wield it.

It sounds easy to say, but hesitant to do it.

Wang Jian sighed: "Bier.

My father alone destroyed the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han. His contribution was already too great. The next three kingdoms of Yan, Qi and Chu will most likely still be handed over to my father.

But I don't feel happy at all about being a father, but I feel scared from the bottom of my heart.

Is there any monarch in this world who does not doubt his generals?

The only person who is not suspicious is opposite, Luo Guo's office."

Wang Ben also changed his expression when he heard this, but the young man was brave and quickly said: "Although you are not willing to fight the battle to attack Luo, you have to fight it. We have no choice.

As the king said, this is a war that will determine whether the Wang family can completely gain a foothold in Qin.

If this is defeated, Qin Wangzheng will even marry off the princess of the clan, so that the Wang family can be completely integrated into the top brass of Qin.

Moreover, although my father hesitated, he had a plan for deploying troops and generals these days, and he had no intention of not fighting.

What I'm worried about now is probably how to deal with the Luo Kingdom Office, right?

Wu'an Jun Bai Qi died in an assassination, and you must be worried that Luo people will use the same method to retaliate against you in the future."

Wang Jian nodded, looking at his son with a smile and talking.

Compared with his military talent, Wang Ben's talent in power struggle reassured Wang Jian, as this is what the head of the family needs.

"Father.

There are young men from the Qin State and old family members from the Qin State in the army. They can do all these things.

Once you are close to winning, you just pretend to be sick and let the news out.

If you don't want the credit for conquering Luo, then don't do it.

These nobles of the Qin State have enjoyed the world conquered by us guest ministers over the years, and now it is time for them to fight for it."

If trouble is diverted to the east, try your best to remove yourself.

Wang Jian burst out laughing, patted Wang Ben on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, it seems that as a father, you don't need to worry about Wang's future."

"Give me the order to attack the city tomorrow, and first test the strength of the Luo Kingdom's defenders."

Wang Ben performed a military salute and said excitedly: "I obey."

…

The next day, dawn broke, like the whitening of a fish's belly.

The Qin people began to build catapults and Korean crossbows specifically for attacking cities.

Winning the three kingdoms of Zhao, Wei and Han was a great supplement to Qin's strength. The three Jin kingdoms each had their own strengths, and now they are integrated into Qin.

When the Luo Kingdom was not showing up, people at the time said: The most powerful bows and crossbows in the world all come from Han, and they can shoot six hundred paces away!

Although the accuracy of the Korean crossbow is very poor, it was originally used for volley fire, so accuracy is not that important.

In order to break through the city of Luo State, Wang Jian brought a terrifying number of siege equipment.

Especially the catapults and powerful crossbows, he had emptied the entire Qin State's seventh-level armaments.

The people of the Three Jin Dynasties were still making new instruments under the command of the officials of the Qin State.

Facing the Luo Kingdom, Wang Jian knew that this would definitely be a war that would last for a long time.

The key to victory is to cash in slowly.

If you exchange five lives of the Qin people for one life of a brave warrior from the Luo state, you will make a profit!

There are 600,000 Qin people, and the loss can be accepted within 300,000.

Wang Ben rode a tall horse and said doubtfully: "Father.

The number of ladders you have installed seems to be a little low?

How can we attack the city without a ladder?"

Luo Ji looked at the Qin people who were coming in densely and overwhelmingly like locusts, his eyes full of solemnity.

The Qin people's siege equipment was somewhat unexpected.

But looking at the well-organized Qin army, Luo Ji quickly said to Luo Ze: "Father.

The Qin people wanted to use huge rocks and powerful crossbows to penetrate Zhaocheng and avoid a direct battle with us.

If this is the case, the casualties among the tribesmen may not be small."

Luo Ze said in a deep voice: "Get ready for war."
