The heavens start from saving Daming

The detailed craftsmanship of various countries is still somewhat capable. At least the outline and casting materials of the King Qin cannon were found out and sent out of Hangu Pass.

But the most critical thing, that is, how to make this Dagui ritual vessel louder, no one knows.

The only thing they knew was that they had to stuff a package of silk-wrapped stuff into the barrel before using it, and then stuff the iron ball into it.

The iron ball is not difficult and can be made quickly.

Silk can be found in various countries, so it is not a particularly rare thing.

But the most important thing is, no one knows what is wrapped in the silk.

In order to obtain a physical object, craftsmen from various countries rushed to the Qin military camps and warehouses one after another, trying to get the most precious things.

But the result was that all failed without exception.

All countries attach great importance to it, and Qin naturally attaches more importance to it.

Each package of propellant has its own number, and the sergeants responsible for protecting it must check it three times a day.

And whether it is in the warehouse or the military camp, it is extremely heavily guarded.

The sergeants knew very well that once it was lost, according to the Qin law's joint sitting system, everyone and their families would disappear with it.

And except for the special management arranged by Ying Zheng, there is no need to listen to the orders of any general.

Under such strict protection, the craftsmen would naturally be unable to succeed.

As for the manufacturing workshop, few people in Da Qin know its specific location, let alone the craftsmen.

Under all the difficulties, only Prince Dan knew what was wrapped in the silk. Apart from King Qin, the only one who knew the most about what was wrapped in the silk was the Taifu.

Therefore, the craftsmen of Yan State stopped and waited for Prince Dan to leave before taking action.

Prince Dan did not stay for too long. Under the terrible deterrent brought by King Qin's artillery, Yan and Zhao quickly reconciled, and Prince Dan naturally no longer needed to be a hostage and beg Qin to send troops.

Here, Prince Dan's convoy left Xianyang City, and over there, the craftsmen of the Yan Kingdom began to wander around the Taifu Mansion.

The order left by Prince Dan was that it would be best if he could be captured and sent to Yan State.

If you can’t do that, just dispose of it!
If you can't get it, destroy it. This is the general rule of the Warring States Period.

This is not over yet. Countries have once again refreshed their understanding of Qin's military force, and are deeply shocked by Qin's unabashed, aggressive, and extremely eager desire to unify the world.

After hundreds of years of war, there are indeed many people who want to end this troubled world where human life is like a piece of grass.

But for the kings, princes and nobles of various countries, they hope that they will end the troubled times, rather than being ended by the Qin people.

Faced with such an imminent and serious threat from Qin, the five Kanto countries once again temporarily put aside their prejudices and joined forces once again.

Well, Qi State continued to stay out of the matter as expected, and remained unmoved no matter how much envoys from various countries tried to persuade them.

In history, from the Qi State until the Qin State destroyed the five kingdoms, and millions of troops came to the city, they chose to surrender directly instead of sending troops to resist.

As for the root cause, it is naturally not that the people of Qi are all pacifists, but that the five countries conquered Qi decades ago, which disgusted Qi to death and almost destroyed it!

The five kingdoms, and even the Emperor of Zhou, came together to make a banner to defeat Qin, the horseman of the Zhou Dynasty.

This time, the momentum of the five nations uniting was very great. Soldiers and horses from all countries gathered in the land of Emperor Zhou. Flags were fluttering and gongs and drums were loud. The alliance stretched for dozens of miles.

The generals first paid homage to the Emperor of Zhou, and received from him the sacred mandate to crusade against the violent Qin Dynasty, thus gaining the title of righteousness.

Of course, this so-called righteous reputation is already worthless in this era, and it is just a matter of deceiving yourself and thinking it sounds good.

You must know that as early as after the Zhou Dynasty moved its capital away from Qishan, they were only in name.

In history, it was precisely because of this move of Emperor Zhou that he gave evidence to the Qin State. Soon after, Lu Buwei completely destroyed the Zhou Dynasty, which had only one city left.

When King Zhou of Shang sent troops to attack Dongyi, the Zhou people seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack. They united with the nobles who had been robbed of their benefits by King Zhou's reforms, and stabbed King Zhou in the back, destroying the Shang Dynasty in one fell swoop.

The Zhou people learned this lesson, and from then on they placed their own people in the safest places, and sent all outsiders to the surrounding barbarian lands to overcome thorns and thorns.

In the blink of an eye, 800 years have passed. Although the Zhou people avoided the bad luck of having their homes stolen, they no longer had the slightest chance to forge ahead.

By this time, only one capital, Luoyi, was left in the entire Zhou Dynasty.

The five countries discussed for a while and finally decided to appoint Zhao General Pang Nuan as their commander-in-chief and lead hundreds of thousands of troops from the five countries to attack Qin.

On the surface, it looks really impressive.

But the actual situation is absolutely not the case.

First of all, there are many conflicts between the five countries. For example, the Zhao State was still at war with the Yan State before, and even the coach Pang Nuan was the vanguard in attacking Yan and killed tens of thousands of Yan troops.

In this case, how could Yan Jun obey Pang Nuan's order?

The three Jins themselves are also having constant disputes within themselves. The farmers working in the fields all know Zhao Guo’s desire to unify the three Jins.

But if Wei and South Korea would allow this kind of thing to happen, they would naturally be in trouble.

As for the Chu State, the powerful Chu State that once competed with the Jin State for hegemony was now feared by the Qin State, and they had been married to the Qin State for generations. Even the queen of King Qin Yingzheng at this time was the daughter of the King of Chu.

In this case, the Chu State was just fooling around, typically sending troops but not doing anything.

Everyone had their own evil intentions, and the result was that hundreds of thousands of troops gathered in Luoyi, with no thought of speed at all.

The generals kept feasting all day long, eating and drinking happily.

The sergeants also had no fighting spirit. They were either fighting among themselves or looting Luoyi, which really made Emperor Zhou so angry that he almost beat him.

It was not until Luoyi's food was exhausted and the Qin State had assembled a large army to deal with it that the coalition forces slowly set off.

They traveled all the way west, first captured Qicheng, which had few defenders, and then continued on after looting, and then captured Shouling City.

After looting again and improving their morale a little, they finally arrived in front of Hangu Pass.At this time, the Qin army was already impatient to wait.

The Qin army did not stick to the natural danger of Hangu Pass and wait for the coalition forces to run out of food and leave on their own. Instead, they took the initiative with great confidence. Under the leadership of Wang Jian, they directly broke out of Hangu Pass and fought a decisive battle with the coalition forces.

Pang Nuan's ability is very good, and it can even be said that he can compete with the four famous generals.

Although he has the title of commander-in-chief, except for the Zhao soldiers under his command, the soldiers and horses of other countries cannot be mobilized at all.

Under such circumstances, the result of a decisive battle with the Qin army can be imagined.

The warriors of the Qin State used the infantry battle formations that were rampant all over the world to attack. Under the cover of dense crossbow arrows, they defeated the Korean army who was recommended to be at the front.

The Korean army's combat effectiveness and fighting will are definitely the worst in the world.

When the three dynasties were divided into the Jin Dynasty, first the Wei Kingdom and then the Zhao Kingdom, all had great successes.

But only South Korea was beaten from beginning to end.

The tens of thousands of Korean troops in the front line engaged the Qin army, but they collapsed and fled after not resisting for long.

The sharp soldiers of the Qin army who were red-eyed even threw away their obstructive armors and started chasing them with weapons and howling.

The Yan army behind the Han army resisted for a while, but the result was the same.

Under the impact of the Qin army's elite military formations one by one, the Yan army also collapsed and fled.

By this time, the situation of the war had become clear, and the coalition forces would undoubtedly lose.

When the anxious Pang Nuan was about to arrange his manpower to block the Qin army's assault, he suddenly heard the bad news. The Chu army, which had the strongest troops and stayed in the rear as a reserve, actually ran away!

As soon as the Chu army ran away, Zhao and Wei were immediately put on the spot.

The morale of the army plummeted.

Pang Nuan had no choice but to look up to the sky and sigh, and then hurriedly ran away with the Zhao soldiers and horses.

Wang Jian on the Qin army's side was still thinking about the follow-up attack plan, but he was shocked to see the coalition forces falling apart.

Now there is no need to use any tricks, the only option is to urgently send out all the new cavalry in hand to chase and kill.

In the battle outside Hangu Pass, the coalition forces were beheaded by tens of thousands, and there was no doubt that they suffered a major defeat.

From then on, the countries in the Kanto region were no longer able to organize a large-scale coalition army, and could only watch helplessly as Qin State ate them all up one by one.

Theoretically speaking, the number of coalition forces from various countries is no less than that of the Qin army.

Their training level is not necessarily worse than that of the Qin army.

After all, it is a country that has been tempered by hundreds of years of war, and its skills and tactics are not weak when all the people are in arms.

As for weapons and equipment, despite the fact that the Qin Army had already upgraded bronze wares to the ultimate level, the actual effectiveness was actually not as good as the iron wares equipped on a large scale by the coalition forces.

However, the result was that the coalition forces were defeated one after another. Whether they responded alone or jointly, they were beaten to the point of vomiting blood by the Qin army.

Even if there is an occasional victory, it cannot stop the general trend.

Upon closer inspection, the root cause is the biggest crux of the cold weapon era, the soldiers are unwilling to sacrifice their lives!

In the era of cold weapons, when casualties reached 5.00%, some troops could no longer hold on and began to flee.

When casualties are [-]%, [-]% of the army will be defeated.

If the casualties reach 20.00% and they can still continue fighting, they will definitely be a world-famous powerhouse.

This kind of thing is simply unbelievable in the eyes of an army in the modern world that frequently suffers more than half of its casualties.

The reason is actually very simple. The sergeants of this era are mainly composed of ordinary people in Guizhou.

Their lives are already very hard.

Throughout the year, they were either busy in the fields, or were drafted to fight in wars or work as corvees on construction projects.

Most of the harvest from digging in the soil was taken away by the kings, and the remaining ones were not even enough to feed their own family.

The sergeants were not treated as human beings at all, and their lives were extremely difficult. How could they possibly sacrifice their lives for the kings?

If he lives like a slave and still fights to the death for the king, wouldn't that be a shame?

This kind of thing has been like this in all dynasties. This is also the reason why tens of thousands of troops were frightened and collapsed by dozens of riders.

It would be great to keep your own life and go home to be with your wife and children. No one is willing to throw it away to the king, emperor, and emperor!

The reason why Qin's sergeants were so different was that the only reason why the powerful armies of the powerful Han Dynasty and the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and even the world-famous Yue Family Army, dared to fight was that the benefits were in place.

Even the Yue Family Army went to war only when they had enough food and pay.

In order to raise military expenses for the Yue family army, the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty even scraped the gold powder off the Buddha statues.

In the Qin State, military merit is awarded here. If you achieve military merit, you will be given corresponding benefits. Children and old men are innocent, and the sergeants are naturally willing to sacrifice their lives.

In fact, this military merit award was born out of Wu Qinong's Wei Wuzu.

The soldiers of the Wei Dynasty back then had to be fed enough benefits to be able to run rampant in the world.

Now, the kings only know how to take, and the sergeants are certainly not willing to sacrifice their lives.

If the soldiers are not willing to sacrifice their lives, they will naturally lose again and again in battle until the country is destroyed.

The battle outside Hangu Pass directly destroyed the last bit of confidence of the Kanto countries. From then on, no one in the world could resist the Qin army.

After hundreds of years of chaos, the dawn of world unification has finally arrived.
