Daqin: Ascend to the Throne to Become the First Emperor

Chapter 36 In three days, break through the capital

And after Zhao Gao used the net to issue a secret decree.

It didn’t take long.

Wang Jia, Meng Gao, and Wang Jian all received Ying Zheng’s secret decree.

Xinzheng!

This one used to belong to the Kingdom of Zheng during the Spring and Autumn Period, and was later occupied by the Kingdom of Han. It became the capital of the Kingdom of Han. It has been surrounded by the 150,000 Qin regiment led by Wang Jiao.

You only need to wait for Wang Jun’s order, and the soldiers of the Great Qin who are the tiger and wolf army will be able to level down this thousand-year-old capital.

“General, this is your majesty’s secret decree from Xianyang.”

The messenger spy of the Luo net ran from a distance, Wang Jun stopped the blockade of his personal guards, and the messenger spy ran to Wang Jun’s side and delivered the secret decree with both hands.

“Go on, I would know.”

Wang Jun took the secret decree and waited for the spy to leave before opening the secret decree to see it.

“Haha, as your Majesty expected, these two countries, Qi and Chu, see that Qin is attacking the three kingdoms of Yan, Han, and Zhao, and wants to encircle Wei and save Zhao.”

After reading Ying Zheng’s secret decree, Wang Jun laughed.

The envoys of the country of Han who were begging for peace were naturally released deliberately by them.

Otherwise, in the case of close monitoring by a snare.

It is also impossible for Han Fei to travel from Han country to Chu and Qi.

“Unexpectedly, Han Fei, the ninth son of King Han who went to Chu and Qi, persuaded both Qi and Chu to send troops together to fight Qin, which is a great help to Qin.”

As Wang Jun spoke, a smile flashed in his eyes.

“But your majesty’s secret decree is that we must win the capital of the Three Kingdoms within three days. The snare can’t be slackened next, and it really releases some of the great figures of the Han country.”

Wang Jun immediately thought.

“Pass the general’s order, siege the city.”

Then Wang Jun passed the order.

It was indeed difficult to capture a royal capital in three days.

Therefore, Wang Jun decided to fire all the heavy crossbows, stone bullets, and archer’s crossbow arrows they carried at Xinzheng City, regardless of other things.

So in the history of the Warring States Period, the most horribly suppressed siege of Han country began.

With Wang Jun’s order.

The catapult and ballista, which had been pushed by the Qin army to less than 100 meters from the Xinzheng King City, opened fire together.

Because the city was going to be attacked this time, the stone bullets used by Wang Jun were all large stone bullets weighing more than one hundred jin, and there were even huge stone bullets weighing two to three hundred jin.

So after accelerating in the air, it would be nice to say if these stone bullets landed in the city.

It just destroyed some houses.

But if these stone bullets fall into the city wall, there will be a pit.

Especially that kind of boulder bullet, if it hits the city wall, it will collapse there.

As for the heavy crossbow fired by the continuous ballista, not to mention, if it was shot at the soldier defending the city, even a whole body would not fall.

If it hits the city wall, it will go deep into the city wall for nearly a meter.

In such a doomsday siege, the garrison soldiers of the Han country did not dare to show their heads.

Then Wang Jun, who was riding on the horse, waved his hand for nearly 30,000, and the archer with Liannuo took the opportunity to approach.

Wait until it is almost close, less than fifty meters away from the city wall.

All the shooters, facing the city wall and the direction of Xinzheng city uniformly, began to throw crossbow arrows towards the city of Xinzheng.

Round after round of crossbow arrows harvested the soldiers of the Han country on the city wall and the ordinary people in Xinzheng City.

Wait for all the archers to finish shooting the crossbow arrows in the quiver.

Wang Jun sent cavalry to snatch the gaps in the walls that had just been smashed by the boulder bullets.

On the one hand, he ordered the car to keep up and hit the city gate.

The so-called rush vehicle is an ordnance specially developed by public losers for the Qin army to break through the gates of the city.

There are four wheels underneath. The main axis is a giant tree with a diameter of nearly a meter. The head is sharpened and protected by metal. It is pushed by soldiers to hit the city gate.

Perhaps it was the retreat of Xinzheng City, but he hadn’t reacted yet.

Perhaps it was Wang Jun’s simple and rude style of play that caused heavy casualties to the defenders of Xinzheng City, and could not organize an effective counterattack at all.

Xinzheng City was broken like this.

It didn’t take three days, just one day.

“Quickly deal with the surrendering of troops, and bring the royal family and officials back to Xianyang. We rush back to support Your Majesty.”

After rushing into Xinzheng City, Wang Juan urged behind.

…

Handan.

The history of this city as the capital of the State of Zhao is much longer than that of Xinzheng.

Since King Zhao Martial Spirit promoted the use of Hufu riding and shooting, Zhao Guo has become one of the seven heroes of the Warring States Period.

Zhao State moved its capital to Handan. Handan has been the capital of Zhao State for 158 years. Over time, Handan has become the political, economic, and cultural center of the North.

But at this time, this century-old capital is overcast.

The prosperity of the past is gone, and it has been surrounded by Qin’s 150,000 army.

“General, this Handan is not like Xinzheng and Jicheng. Zhao Guo has been operating here for more than a hundred years. He has dug a moat ten meters wide and nine meters deep around the city of Handan. If we do not pay a certain price , You can’t even get close to the city wall, let alone take this city.”

In the middle account of Qin’s army, the lieutenant told Meng Gao.

“We didn’t have any plans to attack. It should be almost the time, right?”

Meng Yu looked at the direction of Handan City and muttered to himself.

Not long after Meng Yu’s voice fell, there was a voice of shouting and killing from the city of Handan.

Then the voice died down.

The gate of Handan City was opened, and a group of people rushed out of it and lowered the suspension bridge.

“Let’s go, go into the city, it’s going to be a long miss in the evening.”

These people were spies ambushing the army of Zhao State and defending the city, and suddenly rebelled.

Zhao Guoshou’s army was caught off guard.

When they want to catch up, close the gate.

But it was too late.

The State of Qin had thousands of troops who crossed the suspension bridge and rushed towards the city gate.

Seeing that nothing could be done, Zhao Jun’s archer appeared on the wall, trying to shoot Qin Jun who had rushed to the gate.

But just as soon as he showed up, he was shot to death by the Qin State Archer who was prepared and armed with a continuous crossbow.

“Handan city is broken.”

Meng Yu was amazed.

While speaking, Meng Yu’s heart was full of amazement at her own Ying Zheng country.

If he encountered the Five-Nation Alliance with the help of such a capable military spy, he wouldn’t have lost so miserably.
