Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 885 The Master of Nine Kingdoms Defeats Wu

Qingji was not at all annoyed, he took down his own special bow made of iron tires from the side of the saddle, then stood on the horse's back, stepped on the stirrups, stretched out the bow and set an arrow, aiming at the Yue clan leader on the top of the city.

"Crack clap..."

The sound of pulling the bowstring makes one's teeth sour.

"Is this man insane?"

"With such a long distance, can he shoot to the top of the city?"

"Hmph, overestimating yourself!"

Taking advantage of the time when the Yuezhi people were relaxing, Qingji drew his bow like a full moon, and with a serious expression on his face, he said in a loud voice: "Remember the words of the widow!"

"My Great Wu's city wall has no place for you to stand!"

As soon as the words fell, Qingji shot a powerful arrow.

"call out!"

"Pfft-"

The leader of the Yue clan, who was still laughing loudly, stopped laughing abruptly. Then, with a look of astonishment on his face, he lowered his head and saw that his throat was shot by an arrow, almost piercing through.

A lot of blood, sprayed out!

Seeing that their leader was shot to death, the Yuezhi people on the top of the city couldn't help being in a mess.

"Fire arrows!"

"on!"

Wu Jun has a systematic method of warfare.

In the huge phalanx, the soldiers formed a huge arrow formation, and shot arrows like locusts crossing the border towards the Yuezhi people on the top of the city.

The brave and brave Rui Shi held the explosive pack in his arms, placed it behind the gate of the city, and immediately detonated it.

"Boom!"

With a loud noise, the city gate was blown down.

The huge explosion frightened the Yuezhi people in the city so much that they dared not fight Wu Jun at all.

"Monster! These Wu people are all monsters!"

"Run away!"

The Yuezhi people who were scared out of their wits scattered like birds and beasts.

Wu Jun's iron cavalry followed the bombed-out city gate, entered straight in, rushed left and right, and slaughtered the fleeing Yuezhi people wantonly.

Having said that, if Gaonu City hadn't just risen from the ground and the city gate was built temporarily, it would be impossible for the city gate to be blown down if the thunderstorm happened in a short while...

After a one-sided massacre, Wu Jun beheaded more than 6000 people and captured nearly [-] people.

These Yueshi captives, if nothing else happens, will be arranged to remote places for infrastructure construction.

……

For Qingji, the elimination of this group of Yuezhi people who dared to invade Shangjun was only a small episode.

After all, the combat effectiveness of the barbarians outside the Great Wall was really not very good.

Before the Warring States Period, the Hu people and Rongdi may have posed a considerable threat to the Central Plains countries.

However, since the Warring States period in history, which of the neighboring states of Qin, Zhao, and Yan did not press the barbarians outside the Great Wall to rub against the ground?

With the current strength of the Wu state and the strong fighting power of the Wu army, it is not difficult at all to completely crush the alien races outside the Great Wall like the Yuezhi and Donghu.

After finishing the trip to Shangjun, Qingji's patrol team arrived in Longxi County.

The first thing Qingji inspected was the Beacon Tower.

The role of the beacon tower is mainly to facilitate investigation. At the same time, when the enemy invades, it can burn straw and other combustible materials. In this way, it can use fireworks to report the enemy's situation, so that the next post can be more vigilant.

The most important thing is to convey military information, which needs to cooperate closely with the Great Wall buildings such as enemy towers and wall towers.

The enemy tower can be used as a pier to transmit beacon information. Where there is no enemy tower or a wall tower suitable for lighting a beacon, a beacon tower must be built according to the beacon transmission route.

Beacon, also known as "beacon".

When the enemy invaded during the day, they would light smoke (flint), and when they invaded at night, they would light fire (beacon) to alert all parties and superiors with visible smoke and light.

The distance between beacon towers is generally about ten miles, and they are usually built on high hills and mounds that are easy to see each other.

For example, the beacon tower where Qingji was at this time was built independently, and there were also three or five horn towers arranged as a beacon group. The shape of the beacon towers varied with time and place, generally square and round.

On the platform are equipment for guarding houses and burning smoke and setting fire. Below the platform are houses for soldiers to live and guard, sheep and horse stables, warehouses and other buildings.

Zhang, the son of the governor of Longxi County, accompanied Qingji, and introduced: "Father, if the soldiers guarding the tower find the enemy is coming, they will immediately light a beacon on the tower, and the neighbors will follow the same way when they see the enemy." , so that the enemy's situation can be quickly transmitted."

"The last time the Qiang Rong invaded, it relied on the enemy's information conveyed by this beacon tower. Otherwise, it would be difficult for our army to make a corresponding counterattack."

"good."

Qingji looked at the facilities in the beacon tower again, and asked, "How many guards are there in the beacon tower?"

"There are five, six or more than a dozen soldiers guarding the beacon, and one of them is Suichang."

"On weekdays, the garrison must have one person dedicated to watch, one person to cook, and the rest to do construction and collect firewood (including firewood for lighting beacon fires) and other matters."

After a pause, Young Master Zhang said to Qingji: "Father, my son thinks that the beacon towers along the Great Wall should be closely integrated with the Great Wall and become an important part of the Great Wall's defense system."

"In order to quickly mobilize the frontier guards across the board and rise up to meet the enemy."

Qingji deeply agrees with Gongzizhang's idea.

……

After finishing the trip to Longxi County, Qingji's patrol team came to Shu County again to inspect Dujiangyan.

After years of excavation, Dujiangyan has been completed, which has irrigated ten thousand mu of fertile land for central Sichuan, completely solved the flood problem, and enabled many boats to sail, which is extremely convenient.

After leaving Shu County, Qingji entered Ba County along the Three Gorges, visited the local officials, soldiers and civilians, and then continued south to inspect the nine counties in the south.

The nine counties in the south of Wu State are Minzhong County, Lujiang County, Cangwu County, Nanhai County, Xiang County, Guilin County, Qianzhong County, Dian County, and Jiaozhi County.

The three counties in the southwest and the six counties in the south of the Lingnan are collectively called the "Nine Counties in the South".

Qingji's tour took more than a year, and he didn't return to Xianyang until the first month of 485 BC.

At this time, the countries of the Kanto region were ready to launch a joint alliance against Wu.

In the third month of the lunar calendar, after the completion of spring plowing, a total of nine countries, Qi, Lu, Song, Wei, Yan, Han, Zhao, Wei, and Zhongshan, held an alliance in Huayang to discuss the matter of defeating Wu.

The feudal lords elected Zhao Yang as the leader of the alliance, and together with more than [-] troops from the nine kingdoms, they set out from Huayang in a mighty way and rushed to Hangu Pass.

Along the way, the coalition forces attacked cities and seized many cities and towns in the land of Hexi, but from the beginning to the end, they still failed to overcome the natural danger.

As for Hangu Pass, Qingji sent 15 soldiers and horses to defend with Sun Wu as the general and Tian Rangju as the deputy.

Qingji's intention is very simple, that is, relying on the favorable terrain and relying on the solidity of the letter, to fight against the coalition forces.

Is Wu Guo still afraid of not being able to afford it?

"kill!"

Inside and outside Hangu Pass, even on the banks of the big river, blood flowed like rivers and corpses piled up like mountains, but the shouts of killing still did not stop.
