The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 589: Xia Jun is too powerful, we are afraid

Huang Qilin died in death row. After Xiao Feng buried him, he took Cao Wan and left the capital. He was going to go out to have a look, to appreciate the scenery of the country and the warmth of life that he had neglected, as well as the hardships of the people. His children stayed behind and will be carefully taught by Xiao Rui.

From now on, Xiao Feng has become a passing cloud, not worthy of Xiao Rui's attention.

Marquis Pingbo's navy is ready and will set off to attack the Wa country today. Although the Tokugawa shogunate urgently sent a mission to seek peace and is willing to be a subsidiary, the decision of Emperor Xia and Xiao Rui will not change. It is better to completely occupy the small island country.

On the other side, Champion Hou sat in the rear and ordered the army to divide into three groups and advance northward.

Although Emperor Qi urgently brought back 200,000 troops from the north, and recruited some rebels, but they were all mobs, how could they be the opponent of Champion Hou?

Especially Li Cunxiao on the East Road, commanded an army of 200,000 like tigers and wolves, and defeated the Qi soldiers steadily.

Qi State's battle strategy is defense, using all available natural factors, such as cities, rivers, mountains, terrain, etc., focusing on defense, and never thought of attacking.

Since ancient times, the siege of the city has been the bottom line, so this also caused the troops of the Great Xia to advance northward at a slower speed, which could not reach the level of breaking through. After all, the stubborn defenses in the front had to be demolished one by one.

In addition, forcibly attacking the city will also cause heavy casualties to the soldiers of Daxia, which requires the use of siege equipment!

Therefore, Champion Hou immediately ordered to use Daxia's latest siege equipment! This is a siege weapon jointly developed by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Song Yingxing, Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry. Now it can finally be shown in the world. As for the power, we will wait and see!

This period of time has come. Champion Hou did not garrison Fengtian City in vain. While sweeping out the rebels in the occupied area, he ordered the soldiers to garrison the fields, and on the other hand, he ordered the personnel to cooperate with the craftsmen sent by the Ministry of Industry to manufacture large-scale siege equipment.

Don't forget, in the past year and a half, Xiao Rui has completed three arrivals of objects, folding ladders, improved trebuchets, these are large-scale equipment for attacking cities, and remember Zhuge Liannu? Enlarging the Zhuge Liannu, what is the power of a large Zhuge Liannu equipped with a crossbow bed? That is simply the ancient Dongfeng series!

The nearly ten-foot-long crossbow arrows were fired together, which was more terrifying than ordinary arrow rain, just like shooting long spears, with astonishing lethality. All the enemies on the city shrunk and could only hide behind the wall. Even with a shield, they couldn't stop them. They were directly shot through by the crossbow arrows, and they were all fixed on the ground!

This kind of ballista requires four or five people to operate, and uses hinge technology to ensure the range and power.

Of course, the more terrifying gunpowder!

Yes, the thickness of the city is several feet thick, and the gunpowder can't blow it open at all. At most, there will be a big hole in the wall, but the city gate is weak! In the past, the siege of the city was done by hitting with wood, even if it was set on fire, it would take a day or two to burn it, but with gunpowder, it is different. It takes far less gunpowder to blow open a door than to blast a city.

Of course, for defense, Qi Guo directly filled the door with earth and rocks to avoid being blasted by gunpowder. But the Great Xia army has other means of attack!

In the past, trebuchets projected stones, but this time they projected gunpowder packs.

The gunpowder bag is a huge round shape, with gunpowder inside and gravel and caltrops wrapped around it. When such things are thrown into the city and exploded, the power...

Tsk tsk, I can't believe how sour it is!

Therefore, the soldiers of Daxia did not rely on hand-to-hand combat to attack the city at all.

First use the bows and crossbows to test the waters, then use the Zhuge Liannu to deter the enemy, and then use the catapult to kill the enemy. After several rounds of attacks, do you still dare to stand on the city of Qi? I lost my temper at all.

Then the ladders and ladders began to attack the city. The Daxia side relied on advanced equipment and gunpowder to play the attack method of siege with a high mortality rate as a home game. The appearance of gunpowder was a bug, and the Qi army had no courage to resist.

Sometimes the Qi army was deaf in both ears from the bombing, and their hearing had not yet recovered. When they looked back, wow, Nima Daxia's soldiers had already climbed up the city.

In battles that are not at the same level, even if you have a city defense, you still lose very rhythmically.

When the result of the victory was passed to Champion Hou, Champion Hou was also stunned.

After taking down a heavily defended city in a short time, the three armies are all so fast, what does this mean?

This shows that Daxia's offense is already an absolute force! Qi Guo can't stop it at all! Qi Guo thought he would stop Daxia by defense, but in fact he became a living target. No matter how ravaged by Daxia's methods, he could only squat there and whine.

Although I knew the effect was amazing in advance, I didn't expect it to be so awesome! And not only the speed of siege has increased, but the death rate has dropped by one tenth, or even more!

Champion Hou immediately sent an express message within 800 miles, sending the good news back to Kyoto.

At the same time, the news that several cities in Qi State were captured spread back to the imperial capital of Qi State, and the entire Qi State was terrified.

Emperor Qi was furious, and roared angrily: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it! How could the soldiers and horses of Daxia conquer three cities in one day? Are all my soldiers full of wine and food? Why don't they fight back, don't resist! Could it be that they just give up?" city!"

Zuo Xiangyun Haitian reminded: "Your Majesty, the Daxia soldiers and horsemen are divided into three groups, each of which took only half a day to capture Qingyuan City, Kaiyuan City, and Kangping City. It is not a day. Our soldiers also Launched a desperate counterattack, but the enemy army is too strong!"

Emperor Qi:? ?

"Even if the enemy country is too powerful, it won't be a god! Each city has 80,000 soldiers and horses, plus the people in the city temporarily recruited to assist, and the army is slowly and continuously replenished. How could it be possible to lose so quickly! Although he is fierce, he doesn't have such a record! What's more, he is still sitting in the rear, not personally leading the troops!" Qi Huang roared.

Yun Haitian replied: "Your Majesty, the strength of the enemy army is not its strength, but its equipment and gunpowder! The enemy army threw the gunpowder on the city wall, and after the explosion, the gravel, barbed wire, and iron fragments inside splashed and attacked. It's terrible, even if they are wearing armor, they may be shot through, let alone soldiers without armor. Moreover, the explosion of gunpowder is like a thunder, which frightens the soldiers and greatly discourages the morale of the soldiers. As for the people, they even flee!"

"Gunpowder?" Qi Huang muttered to himself, suddenly speechless.

Emperor Qin is afraid of the gunpowder of Great Xia, so why not Emperor Qi? He also ordered the alchemist to study gunpowder, and it has achieved results, but the power is not good at all. It is impossible to research gunpowder that is as powerful as Daxia gunpowder in a short time!

Qi Huang, who was extremely angry in his heart, looked at Wei Nanzheng, the right minister, and asked, "Where is Prince He? Where is he?"

Wei Nanzheng said: "Report to Your Majesty, Prince He is gathering troops in Liaoyuan City!"

Liaoyuan City is three hundred miles to the north of Kaiyuan City, and with Daxia's speed, they will attack there soon.

Qi Huang roared: "Order Prince He to do everything possible to stop Daxia's soldiers and horses! Qi's hope is on him!"

This sentence is really true.

Now the soldiers and horses that Qi can use are basically used to resist the Daxia army. Only 100,000 soldiers and horses are left in the north to guard the main passage to prevent the Yuan army from continuing to attack south, and the north of Qi completely gives up. The rest is a part of the soldiers and horses to guard against a few rebels who have not yet been recruited. The rest are tens of thousands of soldiers and horses outside the imperial capital. This is to protect the imperial city and must not be tampered with.

Hearing Emperor Qi's roar, Wei Nanzheng narrowed his eyes, and then said: "Your Majesty, in order to arouse Prince He's enthusiasm for fighting, I suggest that Prince He's family should be strictly protected to avoid assassination by Xia Guo assassins!"

Qi Huang frowned, and immediately understood Wei Nanzheng's meaning. Only by imprisoning him can he force Prince He to attack hard, and prevent him from colluding with Daxia and defecting!

"Aiqing is right! This matter is left to you, and you must take good care of Prince He's family and strictly protect them!" Qi Huang ordered.

Wei Nanzheng said with a smile: "This humble minister leads the decree!"

Hai Yuntian at the side sighed secretly, this time he didn't object, he had already done what he should do, and he had done his duty.

After the discussion was over, Wei Nanzheng left the palace in a hurry, and not long after, soldiers and horses surrounded Prince He's mansion and Ye Wendao's county mansion.

Father led the army to go out, and his home was surrounded by soldiers and horses. In name, it was protection. How was it different from imprisonment in reality?

Ye Wendao didn't resist, and quietly watched Qi Huang play this good show of stabbing a knife in the back. Under his expressionless face, he sneered inwardly.

"You are ruthless, don't blame me for being unintentional!"

Immediately, Ye Wendao sent his confidants to contact the Nanshan Army, the largest rebel army in Qi State!

The Nanshan Army was a rebel army secretly funded by Prince He and Ye Wendao. Without Daxia's one million shi food, it would have been impossible to develop into the current scale of nearly 200,000 and occupy the land of the three states. The Nanshan Army did not participate in the last time the imperial court played a one-handed recruiting game. Now that the situation in Qi is tense, it is time for the Nanshan Army to attack.

The north and the south are attacked by enemies, and the rebels are attacking. Let's see how long Qi can last!

The country is broken and the mountains and rivers are broken, the only way is to unify and change the world! If we continue to let the Qi State survive, how many people will be displaced and their families will be destroyed?

Only when you are destroyed can you stand up!

 …

When Xiao Rui received the urgent report, it was already two days later.

Xiao Rui was not surprised by the result of the siege. Fighting cold weapons with hot weapons is not a dimensionality reduction attack, but it is also a bullying novice camp.

Equipped with the powerful equipment of the Mohists, are you still worried that you won't be able to win the city of Qi?

I believe that it won't be long before Xia Guo's achievements will be spread all over the world, and the world will be shocked!

Xiao Rui looked to the west. Qin was the one he regarded as an enemy. I don't know how powerful the Qin army is now, and how strong or weak is it compared to the Great Xia army?

"Come here to deliver the decree, call Changsheng Hou Tian Boyuan, and Zhang Liang, the governor of the fourteen prefectures in Anxi, will return to Beijing to report on his duties!"

Xiao Rui had already communicated with His Majesty, so he made an order immediately. The Qin State in the west must pay attention to it. Now Daxia and Qin State are still unable to fight, the main reason is that Qin State did not manage the occupied Zhao land well.

A few days ago, Zhang Liang heard from Mao Falcon, saying that Emperor Qin had made a big move. He handed over the sixteen counties that occupied Zhao to his son Qinzheng, the king of Ying, who was much more powerful than the king of war who had rebelled back then.

Emperor Qin has few heirs, and now there are four sons, one prince and three princes.

The prince sits in the East Palace, and the three princes divide the lands. Now letting the prince personally govern the territory of the old Zhao seems to be cruel, and he wants to get it done as soon as possible so that he can send troops to Great Xia.

And this winning king is also a good means. He directly reported to the Qin State, moved three million Qin people from the Qin land to the old land of the Zhao state, and forced the adult Qin people to marry the women of the old people of the Zhao state to form a bond through marriage.

At the same time, the army was mobilized to completely encircle and suppress the old Zhao rebels in the sixteen counties, and promulgated the felony criminal law. If anyone sheltered the rebels, five households would sit together, and if anyone joined the rebels, the three clans would be punished.

This winning king is ruthless enough, isn't he chaotic?

Then this king will kill the Quartet and scare you, let's see if it's still chaotic!
