My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?

Chapter 387 The autumn harvest is coming, sharpen your sword to Qin!

More than 100,000 troops of the Chu State were on the border, and more than 300,000 soldiers and horses were plowing the streets and sweeping holes in the territory, carrying out a large-scale sweep against bandits, water bandits and child servants that had not been seen in hundreds of years!

The State of Zhao successively sent an additional 200,000 troops to the Qin-Zhao border. Taking advantage of last year's victory in the Battle of Wu'an, the state of Zhao was extremely coercive and sent another 50,000 troops to attack the stubborn old nobles in the country and those who supported the old nobles. The officials wielded their butcher knives, and blood flowed into rivers outside the Handan market every day!

The actions of the two great powers in the north and south made the whole world tremble.

The State of Yan quickly increased its troops to 50,000 and stationed them at the Yan-Zhao border just in case.

Qi State even nervously hoarded 100,000 troops in Nanyang to prevent the Chu army from suddenly turning to the northeast.

The monarchs and ministers of Qin were also frightened.

But the granary that made even mice cry made Qin have to choose to bear the pressure and danger, and resist the pressure at the top.

For a time, blood energy lingered in the world, but Qin and Guizhou seemed not to be affected, and the years were quiet.

Qin Wangzheng September 1st.

The hills on the west side of Tunliu County.

In the past, there was often the sound of roaring tigers here, and no one in the capital of Guizhou would dare to enter.

But this year, this place is full of people!

"Zhang Ji, take the villagers to the northwest quickly. A large flock of birds is flying over there!"

"Chief Huang Ting! A big wild boar is coming from the southwest! Please take people there quickly!"

"No! The big bug is coming down the mountain! Get your weapons ready and prepare for battle!"

"Shout loudly! The county magistrate has brought people over. Don't be afraid. Come and kill the pigs!"

The wild boar, which followed its habit of going down the mountain to look for food, saw the thirty or so strong men standing in front of it, and its little eyes showed great doubts.

Every year when I go down the mountain, I can eat whatever I want and leave when I’m full, and no one stops me!

What's going on this year?

The wild boar's instinct of vigilance made it more determined to retreat.

However, when its sight followed the gap in the crowd and looked into the distance, its small eyes shone brightly.

There are so many delicious foods!

Is it because my fangs are bad, or are you drifting?

Do you know what one pig, two bears and three tigers mean?

"Hey~"

Roaring, the boar charged the crowd.

Huang Yao, the director of the pavilion, shouted: "Fire the arrow!"

With a command, more than 30 arrows shot out, more than 20 of which pierced the wild boar's skin stably and hard.

However, instead of falling, the wild boar roared in anger:

"hold head high!!!"

As the four hooves alternated, the wild boar's speed suddenly increased to 70 kilometers per hour, and it rushed towards a pavilion soldier!

Just a high-speed impact is enough to kill someone.

Not to mention that the wild boar has two sharp tusks!

Huang Yao shouted in shock: "Break! Change your gun!"

The remaining pavilion soldiers quickly dispersed, abandoned their bows and held spears, and aimed their spears at the wild boar with a corpse hanging on its tusks!

"hold head high!!!"

Accompanied by a mournful cry, the wild boar was covered in more than thirty bloody holes.

Blood flows out, but the wild boar becomes more and more crazy!

Shaking off the corpse hanging from its teeth, the crazy wild boar charged at the soldiers around him again.

Huang Yao ordered without hesitation: "Run!"

All the pavilion soldiers threw away their spears and ran for their lives.

Finally, the wild boar drained its blood and staggered to the ground unwillingly.

Huang Yao gasped for air, with an excited smile on his face: "Pao Ze, one hind leg and skin of this pig will be left to the family members of Pao Ze who died in the battle, and the rest will be divided equally!"

All the pavilion soldiers cheered: "Wei!"

A satisfied voice came from not far away: "Chief Huang Ting's troops are really brave!"

Huang Yao turned around subconsciously, and then hurriedly handed over his hands: "Meet the county magistrate."

"Can that big insect be given a head?"

Zhang Pu, the magistrate of Tunliu County, laughed and said: "There are many villagers' lives under the claws of that big insect, how can we let it escape?"

Behind Zhang Pu, several county soldiers cooperated to lift the tiger's body high.

Huang Yao and all the soldiers raised their hands in excitement: "The county magistrate is mighty!"

Zhang Pu waved his hand: "It's just to eliminate harm for the people."

Immediately, Zhang Pu warned in a deep voice: "The autumn harvest is coming, and beasts are surging on the mountain."

"I'd like to trouble you all to strictly guard the defensive line. If you encounter an invincible beast, report it immediately and I will lead the county soldiers to eliminate it."

"Don't let me wait for one year of hard work to be ruined on the eve of harvest!"

Huang Yao and all the pavilion soldiers raised their hands together: "Wei!"

Zhang Pu nodded slightly and rode towards the fields.

Looking at the sturdy millet plants in the distance, Zhang Pu couldn't help but smile from the bottom of his heart: "How beautiful!"

"Fighting for power in the court, all you get is heads."

"But from cultivating and working on these acres, the income will feed all the people!"

I still remember that when he was just sent to Tunliu County as the county magistrate by Ying Chengxuan, although this place was a wealthy place with eight villages in ten miles, it was only compared to other cities in the Taihang Mountains.

There is not much flat land available for cultivation, and there are still a large number of acres that cannot be plowed and can only be cultivated manually.

But since the advent of the Changan plow, Changan plows have been used on many acres that could only be cultivated manually.

Even the former hills at his feet were reclaimed by Zhang Pu with manpower, transforming the tiger's den that once daunted the Tunliu Guizhou leaders into a grain field that breeds hope!

Looking at the millet plants that were about to mature, Zhang Pu gained an unprecedented sense of satisfaction and pleasure.

However, just when Zhang Pu was immersed in the joy of the upcoming harvest, a knight galloped over on horseback.

Zhang Pu shouted angrily: "Don't step on the seedlings!"

However, the knight ignored the seedlings in the field and galloped to Zhang Pu. Before Zhang Pu could get angry, he shouted anxiously: "County magistrate, Zhao army soldiers and horses have been found in the north of the city!"

Zhang Pu's expression changed drastically, and he asked in a deep voice: "Can we find out the number of enemy troops?"

The knight said with a pale face: "There are only five people in this humble department, so we can't see clearly."

"According to our visual inspection, there are at least 80,000 enemy troops!"

Zhang Pu was struck by lightning and grabbed the knight's shoulders with both hands in disbelief: "What are you talking about?"

"Eighty thousand?!"

Although Tunliu County is located near the border between Qin and Zhao, it is not the top city.

Now, 80,000 Zhao troops suddenly appeared in the north of the city. How could this keep Zhang Pu from panicking!

The knight said bitterly: "Just a little more."

"Zhao Jun is marching very fast, and Zhao Jun's scouts have already discovered our unit. Three people from Baoze, the subordinate of Baoze, were killed in the battle, and one person was seriously injured. Only Baoze was slightly injured, and he was still able to send back the news."

"In order to report this matter as soon as possible, our department had no choice but to return without any further investigation."

"Please forgive me, magistrate!"

The knight was only a first-year soldier. Although he was selected as a scout because of his outstanding performance, he was ultimately not as good as the frontier scouts.

Moreover, the number of county soldiers and scouts was too small. It was already difficult to come back alive in the face of the interception by Zhao Jun's elite scouts.

County Lieutenant Liu Tong held down Zhang Pu's hand with his right hand and said in a deep voice: "County magistrate, the lords have really tried their best."

"What should our city do next? Please let me know from the county magistrate!"

Looking around at the golden seedlings, Zhang Pu shouted bitterly: "Zhao Gou is so shameless!"

"Starting a war during the autumn harvest!"

"Immediately order orderly and stingy men in all villages to guide the heads of Guizhou into the city for temporary refuge."

"Open the arsenal! Deploy all the young men and prepare to defend the city!"

Zhang Pu knew that Zhao Jun could not be here for shopping.

The autumn harvest will be in half a month. It is wishful thinking to end a local war within half a month.

In other words, the food they spent a year of hard work growing in Tunliu County can no longer be saved!

All the officials in Tunliu County were also filled with anger, and they all raised their hands: "Wei!"

Alarm bells were sounded.

The heads of Guizhou who were still immersed in the dream of harvest were awakened. They took one last reluctant look back at the golden seedlings, put their bags on their backs, and poured into Tunliu County along with the heads of fellow countrymen.

As it got darker, the last group of Guizhou soldiers finally ran into the city.

Liu Tong rode his horse up the road to the city and spoke repeatedly: "County magistrate, all the young men in the city who are over fourteen years old and under fifty years old have gone to the arsenal to wait for the distribution of armor and weapons."

"In addition to the 2,000 regular troops, our army can also have more than 7,000 young men participating in this battle!"

Tunliu County has been through wars and the people's livelihood is in decline. It is the limit to be able to gather so many combatable soldiers.

Zhang Pu looked into the distance, and his voice was heavy: "Nearly ten thousand soldiers and horses, still have the strength to fight!"

Liu Tong followed Zhang Pu's line of sight and looked into the distance, and saw a black line that had jumped out of the horizon and was accelerating towards Tunliu County.

Gradually, the Zhao army flags clearly appeared in the sight of the Tunliu defenders, making the atmosphere in Tunliu County more solemn.

And when the garrison soldiers in Tunliu saw the large banner with the word "李" embroidered on it, deep despair rose in everyone's eyes.

"Wu'an Lord Li Mu is the commander-in-chief, and he has more than 80,000 troops to attack our garrison?"

"What virtues and abilities do we have in Tunliu County!"

In last year's battle, most of the eyes of the old Qin people in Guanzhong were attracted by Ying Chengyu's amazing performance.

But for the Qin people in the Taihang Mountains, the Battle of Wu'an made the originally unknown Li Mu famous.

This is a man who can compete with General Wang Jian!

Fighting nearly 10,000 soldiers against at least 80,000 enemy troops is certainly very stressful, but relying on the city wall, the battle can still be fought.

But now you tell us that the enemy coach is Zhao Guowanjun Li Mu?

How can we fight this!

Zhang Pu was also very panicked, but he shouted in a deep voice: "I'm so panicked!"

"So what if the enemy general is Lord Wu An?"

"So what if the enemy has more than 100,000 troops?"

"My Tunliu County has towering walls and ample food reserves. I am not afraid of a long war."

"Vice-General Xiong's 50,000 troops are stationed in Xiangyuan County, seventy miles northeast of our camp. There are also reinforcements in Changzi County to reinforce our city."

"Reinforcements will arrive within two days at most!"

"We only have to hold on for two days."

Listening to Zhang Pu's words, the garrison at Tunliu finally felt a little calmer.

Although our troops in Tunliu County are small, there are still friendly forces around us.

The Xiangyuan garrison, seventy miles to the northeast, and Changzi County, fifty miles to the south, will increase their troops to support our city!

Zhang Pu raised his voice and asked seriously: "Think about your family members, young and old, and think about the millet you have planted this year."

"Do you dare to fight to the death with the enemy?!"

Looking at the golden seedlings outside the city, all the defenders roared in unison:

"Fight to the death! Fight to the death!"

North of Tunliu County.

Li Mu rode his horse and said in a deep voice: "Go down with the order."

"Anyone who tramples on the seedlings will be killed!"

Lieutenant General Sima Shang solemnly raised his hands: "Wei!"

As soon as the order was issued, Li Mu heard the shouts of the Qin army at the top of the city.

Li Mu raised his head with interest: "The fighting spirit is surging."

"But how long can it last?"

"make!"

"Fu Da's troops sent ten thousand troops to attack the city."
