Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 175
"Where is Wenzhong now?"

Qingji asked.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, Wen Zhong is still in Wandi today. If Your Majesty is willing to use him again, he will give full play to his talents. I believe that Wen Zhong will be able to leave the seal and move his family to the State of Wu to serve His Majesty!"

Regarding this point, Qing Ji has no doubts at all.

After all, all kinds of languages ​​in history can go to a country of Yue, which is almost in decline. Why can't they contribute to the thriving state of Wu?

Although it is easy to make icing on the cake, it is difficult to give charcoal in the snow.

But Wen Zhong defected to Wu State at this time, and still did not lose the position of Jiuqing!
Qingji thought to himself for a while, and then said, "Young uncle, please reply to the language. If he is willing to enter Wu and serve the widow, the position of Prime Minister Zuo is waiting for him!"

"Your Majesty Yingming!"

The position of Prime Minister Zuo is equal to that of Jiuqing, but only under Sangong, so it can be said that he has a high position and weight.

Qingji's ability to confer such an official position on Wenzhong shows his love for talents!

……

Outside the city of Han.

"Boom boom boom!"

The dull and slightly depressing sound of the cowhide war drum resounded through the sky.

"Hoohoho!"

On a field, the soldiers of the Wu army, wearing crimson battle suits, walked in uniform steps, forming a huge square formation.

Banners cover the sky, spears and spears are like forests!
Warriors from various tribes of Huaiyi, dressed in various clothes and holding various weapons in their hands, rushed in like a tide, and their momentum was very frightening!
This time, in order to completely wipe out Han Kingdom and pull out this "nail house" on the Jianghuai land, Qingji dispatched a total of [-] Wu soldiers.

At the same time, there are more than ten thousand Huaiyi warriors to help out!

Compared with the mighty Wu Jun, Han Jun's side is much more shabby.

The whole country of Han has a population of only [-], and the number of troops that can be dispatched is even less!

Even if Han Wang Handang counts strong women, how much power can he use?

Having said that, looking at the majestic city wall in front of him, Qingji couldn't help hesitating for a while.

Hancheng is undoubtedly a fortified city, easy to defend but difficult to attack.

If not, the country of Han would never be able to stand still and maintain an independent state under the strong attack of the Wu army for decades.

Qingji knew that this war was a tough one, but he had to fight it!

After this battle is fought, Wu will not have to worry about the future, and will do its best to develop people's livelihood and accumulate national strength.

At this time, Qingji, who was standing on the military chariot, waved his hand, comprehended with the soldiers on the side, and immediately drove forward, and shouted loudly under the city, outside the range of the arrow: "Is King Han here?"

"My king wants to have a meeting with King Han!"

"Snatch!"

Before the soldier could finish his sentence, an arrow flew out and stuck in the side of the horse's hoof.

The meaning of Handang is already very obvious, that is to fight to the death without surrender!

For Handang, there is no third way to go, either the country is ruined and the family is destroyed, or Qingji retreats!

Let the state of Han submit to the state of Wu, bow its head to the state of Wu, or simply be like perishing, and only keep the ancestral temple for sacrifices.

This is more uncomfortable than killing Handang!

Seeing this, Qingji was not polite, anyway, he had already done the courtesy first and then the military, and if Handang didn't know what to do, if he wanted to die, no wonder Qingji.

With a sound of "shua", Qingji pulled out the Longyuan Sword from his waist, pointed at the opposite Han City, and shouted: "Attack!"

With the sound of intensive battle drums, the soldiers of the Wu army, who had been holding their breath for a long time, immediately rushed towards the opposite city wall like a tide.

Then, the Huaiyi warriors, like the howling hungry wolves, flew towards Hancheng.

"Fire arrows!"

After Wu Jun entered the range of the bow and arrow, Han Dang waved his hand and ordered to release the arrow.

Round after round of dense arrow rain like locusts crossing the border, they were thrown out immediately, and fell on the heads of Wu Jun soldiers with a "swish swish".

The Wu pawns who had been prepared for a long time could only raise their shields to block, which was really unlucky. The pawns who couldn't stop were hit by arrows, and fell to the ground wailing, life or death unknown.

"kill!"

The generals and soldiers of the Wu army rushed to Hancheng bravely and bravely with the ladder on the ladder.

"Pfft!"

"Ahhhh!"

Many Wu soldiers have already climbed the ladder, ready to climb to the top of the city.

It's a pity that the Han soldiers guarding the city are not vegetarians either.

Under Han Dang's command, apart from arrows, rocks, rolling logs, hot oil, etc., everything that can cause harm to the enemy, the Han army will use them one by one!

"Straight mother thief, let me die!"

"Wow!"

A Wu pawn who climbed to the top of the city fought bloody battles. Even though he was blind in one eye, he still swung his sword to kill the enemy.

Wu Jun's combat effectiveness is very strong.

In a one-on-one situation, it is often Wu Jun's soldiers who have the upper hand!

The Huaiyi people who accompanied the siege were also very brave.

One-on-one heads-up, they have never been afraid of anyone!
Having said that, the soldiers on the Han army's side are not weak at all.

Even with the added belief of defending their home and country, they can unleash astonishing combat power, picking and flying the enemies who have climbed onto the top of the wall one by one!

With a sound of "shua", Handang swung his sword and chopped off the head of an enemy, staining Zheng's robe with blood.

Handang is so brave, and he went to the front to fight in person, which undoubtedly greatly boosted the morale of the Han army and added a lot of resistance to the Wu army's siege battle!
The tragic offensive and defensive battle lasted from early morning to evening and sunset.

Looking at the mountains of corpses piled up above and below the city, and the sight of blood flowing like rivers, Qingji sighed secretly in his heart.

In a siege battle, the attacking side undoubtedly suffered the most casualties.

If it was not a last resort, Qingji would never want to capture Hancheng and destroy Hanguo in this way!
At this time, Qingji suddenly thought of siege equipment such as trebuchets.

At this time, the trebuchet had not yet been invented. If Qingji could manufacture a large number of trebuchets, it would certainly greatly reduce the resistance of the Wu army when they attacked the city.

It's a pity that Qing Ji didn't think of this earlier.

Furthermore, it may not be Wu who took advantage of the invention of the trebuchet at this time.

Because Qingji intends to concentrate all efforts to develop the national power after the Han country is destroyed. If there is no foreign war, the trebuchet will be useless.

And once the state of Wu manufactures the trebuchet, it will be imitated by other countries. After the reform of the state of Wu is completed, the war situation it will face will be much more severe.

"retreat!"

Seeing that it was getting late, Hancheng could not be attacked for the time being, so Qingji could only wave his hand, come down and withdraw his troops.

The generals and soldiers of the Wu army and the Huaiyi people who heard the sound of the withdrawal horn couldn't help but retreated like a tide, leaving only hundreds of corpses behind.

Seeing that the enemy army had retreated, the soldiers of the Han army on the top of the city couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Wu Jun suffered heavy casualties, and Han Jun's side also felt uncomfortable!
As the saying goes, if you kill one thousand enemies, you will lose eight hundred. If it weren't for the strong walls of Han City, the Han army would have been defeated.
