Chapter 913 Battle of Baiqu
Only the Empress' vacation was not exactly what he thought. That afternoon, the Empress gathered Jiang Fan to visit Li Mountain.
This is her purpose, Mr. Jiang lamented, she even wants to take this opportunity to see overseas grains.
When she came to Lishan County in person for the first time, the empress was also shocked by the huge city in front of her. She didn't expect that Jiang Fan actually built the city like this.
On the majestic city gate are two large black characters - Lidu.
Yes, since independence and self-government, this place has been officially named Lidu. At first, it was opposed by many people, who thought it was too over the top.
The city wall of Lidu is thirty feet high, as far as the eye can see, and is extremely wide enough to accommodate five carriages traveling side by side. Although it has not yet been completely completed, it is not difficult to imagine how shocking it will be in the end just by looking at it.
"What a strong city." The empress couldn't help but admire it.
Jiang Fan smiled and said: "It was all completed with the blessing of cement, but this is not what it will look like in the end."
"Oh?" The empress was a little confused: "Does it need to be more majestic?"
Jiang Fan shook his head: "No, eventually, the city wall will be demolished."
Demolition... The empress' expression changed slightly.
"Now this place is too important and needs high walls to protect it. After the world is at peace, all the walls will be demolished here and it will become an open city where everyone can come and go as they please."
The empress was slightly shaken: "...This requires true unification of the world."
Jiang Fan nodded: "Yes, and that's exactly what you and I want."
The empress nodded, picked up Jiang Fan and jumped into the city.
No one stopped him, Zhang Qiubearded watched the two people disappear into the city, raised his right hand and shook it slightly, and everyone behind him dispersed.
Just as the two of them were entering the city, someone was attacking the city in the distant Baiqu.
There is a saying that all your comfort comes from someone carrying the burden for you.
While the two of them were seemingly enjoying themselves, someone was fighting a bloody battle.
The capital of Baiqu, Luodu, was surrounded by flames of war. Thousands of troops finally arrived at the largest fortified city of Baiqu.
On top of the city, King Baiqu, who was dressed in a brocade robe, was trembling like chaff. The black torrent that surged like a flood made him almost faint from fear.
This is the Great Qin Iron Cavalry, the most invincible army in the world!
Now he deeply regretted listening to Xiang Chen's words, and he even hated the Emperor who said he would provide assistance.
"This...this...how could this happen? Where are Xiang Chen's people? Where are the people who win the old man?"
Baiqu General Chen Kun held a mace in his hand, his eyes gloomy as water.
"Your Majesty... there will be no reinforcements, we were fooled by them!"
King Baiqu looked pale: "Why so, why so! I don't believe it, they all promised..."
Chen Kun gritted his teeth and said: "I'm afraid we were deceived by them. They obviously have ulterior motives. We are just chess pieces that attract attention or have some use."
King Baiqu trembled all over and roared: "Xiang Chen has mistaken me! Ying Pei has mistaken me -"
Chen Kun's heart felt cold, today might be the day when Baiqu's country would be destroyed.
How long had it been since the war started? The other side actually seemed to be entering an uninhabited territory, marching straight in with overwhelming momentum, and reached the capital in just a few days.
He has never seen such a well-equipped army in his life. Their swords can split the strongest armor and cut off the sharpest weapons. Their armor can withstand the best swords, guns and arrows in Baiqu.
He has never seen such a fierce army. In their eyes, they only move forward and ignore death.
He had never seen such a strange fighting style before. From the moment he came into contact, the opponent's vanguard force gave him an incomparable shock.
What kind of army is that? There are only three thousand people, but they are all above the martial arts level. Their fighting methods are unseen and unheard of, and their equipment is extremely sophisticated. Just these three thousand people miraculously captured two cities. Their
The scouts were even more weird. Before our scouts discovered the other party, they were already in a desperate situation.
The brave young pioneer with the tiger head and golden helmet killed twenty-seven generals and countless soldiers by himself.
Our own side sent out masters to assassinate, but fell into the opponent's trap again and again. Countless masters, venerables, and even holy realms fell under the opponent's ambush.
He originally thought that only the vanguard troops were so sophisticated, but later he discovered that the same was true for the army that followed. Under the command of the villain Tu Gaorong, the army was able to conquer everything it passed. Anyone who resisted in the corner was slaughtered.
That terrible villain never had any of his subordinates alive. He once broke down the city gate single-handedly and destroyed an entire city. Hundreds of masters from the army tried their best to snipe, but he killed them all and no one survived, just like a ghost.
In the end, the Qin cavalry roared and galloped in, and dark clouds pressed down on the city to destroy it.
The unparalleled pioneer held two maces in his hands and pointed proudly at the top of the city.
"The Great Qin Iron Cavalry is here, whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
King Baiqu's face turned pale, and he was at a loss what to do.
"It's better...to surrender..."
Chen Kun suddenly said: "Your Majesty, this time is different from the past. Don't you understand? They are obviously coming to destroy Baiqu. We have no way out."
King Baiqu said in a trembling voice: "We bow our heads and proclaim ourselves as ministers, pay tribute every year, and declare ourselves as ministers year after year. Isn't it enough?"
Chen Kun shook his head with a sarcastic expression: "I originally thought that without the empress, we would not be here today, but unexpectedly, the literati regent who recited poems and composed poems turned out to be so cruel. They wanted to destroy the country and make the Qin Dynasty no longer have any hidden dangers in the southwest.
.”
"Then, let's surrender. It's not bad for all the princes in the area..."
"What happened now is just a dream in the Spring and Autumn Period. Your Majesty, if you want to live, just run away. I will open the north gate and protect you at all costs as you escape to Southern Chu. I hope Xiang Chen will find you useful and spare your life.
"
"But, this...I..."
He looked sad. How could the king of a country be willing to fall like this?
Chen Kun looked at this hypocritical, cowardly, stupid king who was both a snake and a mouse, and his eyes became a little crazy: "I think, Your Majesty, you should... die for your country!"
King Baiqu was shocked and shocked.
Chen Kun pulled out the sword from his waist and put it into his hand: "Come on, Your Majesty, this is the sword that your family has passed down from generation to generation. You can use it to kill enemies, or you can use it to cut yourself. Please...
…Do it yourself!”
After saying that, Chen Kun suddenly shook his sword and roared downwards.
"My child! I, Chen Kun, and these thousands of soldiers were born in Baiqu and grew up in Baiqu. Qin has no way. He wants to seize my land and destroy my country. He also wants me, Chen Kun, to be the slave of the subjugated country? My child, you are so whimsical,
Today, I will fight to the death with these Baiqu soldiers and you! Beat the drum!"
In an instant, the sound of drums shook the sky, and on the city wall, swords were unsheathed and arrows were cocked. In this final battle, the Baiqu soldiers finally abandoned the useless king. Under the leadership of Chen Kun, they fought to the death.
Meng Yi didn't expect that there would be such a bloody general among Baiqu. He couldn't help laughing: "Since I entered Baiqu, all the civil servants I saw were greedy for life, and all the generals I saw were afraid of death. I didn't expect there to be a hero like you.
