"Reporting to the army, the gate of Boyi City has been opened."
The beggar from the West came to report.
Zhao Tuo nodded and said: "Order the generals to restrain their men and let the soldiers enter Boyi one by one. When our troops enter the city, they must not commit any crimes. Anyone who dares to touch the property or women of the Wei people will be killed without mercy."
"only."
Zhao Tuo stood on the chariot and looked at Shejian's troops in the front group, who had already taken control of the gate of Boyi City, and the soldiers began to file into the city.
"It seems that there is no need to camp in the wild tonight. Although Bo Yi is small, it is enough for our army to have a good night's rest. Only in this way can we march long distances until we are alone."
While Zhao Tuo was thinking, his chariot had already entered the city.
Bo Yi is a township located between Feng County and Shanfu. The area is not very large and there are not many troops.
The Qin army pressed on the border and threatened, and the legitimate son of the Dai family in Shen County came to the city in person to persuade him. Prime Minister Bo Yi immediately opened the door and surrendered, which saved Zhao Tuo a lot of effort.
Because of the voluntary surrender, the city was very peaceful. All the villagers in Boyi hid in their houses in fear, nervously watching the Qin army marching on the streets outside through the doors and windows.
"Marquis, this is Bo Yizai."
As soon as Zhao Tuo entered the city, Dai Yu excitedly brought a fat man in brocade clothes and a high crown.
"I, Bo Yi, are the governor of Bo Qiu, and I pay homage to the military commander."
As soon as Boqiu arrived, he laid his fat body on the ground and kowtowed directly to Zhao Tuo.
From Zhao Tuo's point of view, this man looked like a fat pig that bowed its head at the moment, with flesh all over his body tumbling with every movement.
"Well, since you took the initiative to surrender, you will still govern the people of Bo Yi and stabilize the people of Qin."
Boqiu raised Feidudu's face and said happily: "Boqiu will do his best to govern the people and never forget the kindness of the military commander."
Zhao Tuo was too lazy to pay attention to him, and turned to look at Dai Yu, who was full of hope. He smiled and said: "Very good, you have made a great contribution to the army for the first time. The merit of surrendering Bo Yi is enough to promote you to Shangzao."
Yes, I will report your merits to you. You have to work hard. I think it won't be long before you can become a public official like the generals, command a thousand soldiers and horses."
Dai Yu was overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Thank you so much, Marquis. Dai Yu will definitely work hard and become a general under the Marquis one day."
Encouraged by Zhao Tuo, Dai Yu raised his head proudly.
He looked at Heiyi, Bai Rong and others not far away who were directing soldiers to enter the city. After these few days of contact, his confidence increased again.
"A son of a rope pivot who is ignorant of literature and art of war, and a Qin Di barbarian who comes from a barbaric land and has no etiquette, can all be able to get into the position of one of the two to five hundred lords of the Qin Kingdom. There is no reason for me, a nobleman who has read military books for generations,
You can’t climb up to this kind of position. Hehe, it’s just a county magistrate, my first goal now, Dai Yu, is to become the leader of the Qin Army!”
At this moment, Zhao Tuo pointed to a special building not far ahead and asked, "Where is that?"
Everyone followed the sound and saw that it was a simple palace with a huge tree in front of the door. It looked very old.
Na Boqiu reacted the fastest and shouted: "Jun Hou, this is the ancestral temple dedicated to King Shangtang of Yin."
Shangtang?
Zhao Tuo was startled.
Dai Yu on the side hurriedly explained: "Boyi here is the former capital of Shang and Tang Dynasty, Bob. Many people in Boyi are descendants of Miao descent and take Bo as their surname, so they have been offering sacrifices to Shang for generations.
king."
"Fu Tang is only seventy miles away, and it can conquer the whole world."
Zhao Tuo nodded. He didn't expect that a small city captured at random would have such a history.
He thought of the ancestors of Qin and Zhao, Ji Sheng, who was a minister of King Shang and a favorite of King Zhou, Emperor Xin.
Both Qin and Zhao had inseparable ties with the Yin Shang Dynasty.
Even today, the tombs of the Qin people still inherit the shape of the merchants, which is very different from the Zhou people.
To a certain extent, the Qin people are also a branch of the Yin remnants in a broad sense.
"My ancestors were also officials of the Shang Dynasty. Since this is the ancestral temple of the Yin and Shang Dynasties, I should go in and offer sacrifices."
Zhao Tuo said to everyone, then got out of the car, straightened his clothes, entered the ancestral temple here with a solemn look, and performed sacrifices to the Shang ancestor and King Shang according to ancient rituals.
After this action, Boqiu's face was filled with joy, and the nobles in the surrounding Boqiu also looked relaxed, looking at the young military commander with soft eyes.
Offering sacrifices to the ancestral temple showed Zhao Tuo's attitude.
Therefore, everyone in Bo Yi felt relieved and truly accepted the rule of the Qin people.
The next thing was that the Qin army took control of key points in the city and sent rangers to explore the east side.
Prime Minister Bo Yi arranged accommodation and food for the Qin army. Although the soldiers and civilians could not be said to be one family, they could be regarded as getting along well and there were no conflicts.
Until evening, Zhao Tuo discussed with the generals about tomorrow's eastward journey and dragged his tired body into the room.
As soon as he walked into the house and closed the door, Zhao Tuo was stunned.
Because he saw that on the couch in the room, a soft quilt was wrapped into a long strip.
"Who was hit?"
Zhao Tuo scolded sternly and put his hand on the hilt of the sword.
Perhaps feeling the severity and vigilance in Zhao Tuo's words, the quilt on the couch suddenly opened, revealing a white figure.
This is a woman without clothes, her snow-white skin glowing under the candlelight.
Zhao Tuo's face was filled with astonishment, and the fat mound popped up in his head, winking at him.
He looked at the woman in front of him, thoughtfully.
The woman hurriedly knelt on the ground and murmured: "My humble concubine, Bo Ji, is here to serve the military commander on the orders of the governor of the city."
Bo Ji?
Zhao Tuo became more and more frightened. At this moment, he really thought he had met the woman with the prophecy.
But Zhao Tuo reacted immediately.
The woman in front of me is about twenty years old and is well developed.
There is a big age difference between him and that Bo Ji, so he is definitely not the same person.
Bo Ji, women in Bo Yi can probably use this title.
Zhao Tuo swallowed, pointed to the door, and said: "I don't need it, put on your clothes and go out quickly. Just tell Bo Qiu to do his job well, and don't use such tricks again."
Seeing that Zhao Tuo was serious, the woman did not dare to disobey the order, so she hurriedly got dressed and ran out of the house.
"This fat man is quite capable of causing trouble."
Zhao Tuo shook his head.
He called Xiqigu, who was in charge of guarding, and gave him a good scolding, telling him that luckily it was just a woman this time. If an assassin had been hiding under the covers, Zhao Tuo would have died here.
Xiqigu went down without hesitation.
Zhao Tuo then went to bed to rest.
There was still a faint fragrance left between the beds, which made him feel uneasy.
A jade-like girl appeared in Zhao Tuo's mind.
…
In the city of single father.
Thousands of Wei troops are gathering to form an army.
"Brother Ji, do you think this time the Qin army is attacking and Lord Ningling takes the initiative to fight, can this battle be won?"
Chen Xi looked at the bearded ranger next to him. This was a heroic man he had recently met, who came from the rich country of Chu.
According to this person, he once visited Zhang Er, a famous scholar from Wei State.
It happened that the Qin army was attacking the city, and this man fought bloody battles. He personally killed two Qin soldiers at the head of the outer yellow city. In the end, he was outnumbered and the city fell. He and the other rangers fled the city and ran to Shan's father.
Liu Ji sneered and said: "What a win, you don't know how fierce those Qin troops are, and how great a hero Zhang Er is, but he was beheaded by the Qin people. Not to mention that even Daliang is surrounded now, Wei
The king will be made a prisoner at any time and escorted to Xianyang for the people of Qin to watch. The Wei Kingdom will surely perish this time, and Lord Ningling's victory is nothing more than a death struggle."
"Brother Ji, what do you think we should do?"
Chen Xi sighed. He was from Wanqu in the Wei State. His father came here as a wanderer. Now that he heard that his hometown had been occupied by the Qin army, he felt very confused.
Liu Ji narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at Chen Xi beside him. This was his new little brother.
"Qin's law is cruel and does not tolerate our rangers. Why don't you follow me to Pei County?"
"Pei County?"
Chen Xi was stunned for a moment, this was a path he had never imagined.
Liu Jizheng said eloquently: "Yes, last year the King of Chu sent an envoy to Xianyang to make peace with the King of Qin. The two countries will not go to war for at least a few years. If you follow me into Chu, your life will not be in danger, and we can continue to drink.
Wouldn’t it be nice to drink wine and do chivalrous things?”
Chen Xi thought about it for a while and felt that this was not bad, so he held up his hands and said, "In that case, Chen Xi is willing to travel with Brother Ji."
Liu Ji smiled slightly, but looked at another mansion in Shan's father's city.
"Gong Lu's family is wealthy, and his son Lu Ze is also a heroic man. Now both of them appreciate me very much."
"I might as well threaten the Qin army with the brutality of killing single fathers, and lure the Lu family into prosperity. In this way, I can continue to rely on the Lu family. And the lady of the Lu family, hehe..."
When I think of the appearance of that girl named Lu.
