Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 742: assault

ps: Chapter 2, ask for a recommendation ticket!

More than a hundred miles to the east from Taoyi, is the territory of the State of Lu demarcated by Zhao Wuxi. Arrive at Linqiu in the evening. first time oh dear

Linqiu was originally the lord of the Wuya brigade, a doctor in the state of Qi. Zhao Wuxi occupied it when he entered Lu. After that, he built the place into a fortress city: he asked the craftsmen to change the backward "two edition walls". For the fourth edition of the Jin Dynasty's fortification method, the outer guo was expanded, and the "Xingcheng" was added to the wall, that is, the horse face of later generations, forming a urn city, and the moat was also deepened and widened. In this way, the city was invincible in the attack and defense of the fifth century BC, unless the Qi army also had a siege master like the Gongshu class.

Qi Jun was naturally unable to bite this hard bone. After Guoxia tried several times with 20,000 people, he avoided Linqiu far away. Although Linqiu was saved, the surrounding people were lucky, and the people who did not have time to evacuate into the city suffered a disaster...

After hearing the news of the return of Zhao's army, Linqiu was boiling, and there were countless people who brought jugs to greet them, but most of them were complainers with tears in their eyes.

A group of people from Linqiu knelt down on one knee where Zhao Jun passed by. Although their tattered clothes had been changed and their blood was washed away, their faces were still filled with fear and hatred.

Ran Geng, who had many scars on his face and hands, pointed to the kneeling people in Linqiu and said sadly, "General Zhao, these people are the only people left in the entire Yangjiao Township, and the others are all dead."

Ran Geng, whose name is Bo Niu, was over forty years old. He originally traveled with Confucius to various countries, but he suffered from leprosy in the Song Dynasty. In the Spring and Autumn Period, it was an incurable disease. After Ran Geng said goodbye to Confucius Back home to die. Unexpectedly, he was rescued by a magpie doctor who went to practice medicine locally. Since then, Ran Geng's attitude towards Zhao's regime has improved a lot in vain.

"What's the matter?" Zhao Wuxi frowned. Generally speaking, fighting in the Spring and Autumn Period would not be so extreme. Large-scale massacres would only gradually increase in the Warring States Period and even Chu Han.

"The local pavilion chief wanted to defend the land and protect the people. He resisted for a while when the Qi army came, and shot a Qi official with a dark crossbow..."

The deceased was a "company commander" of the state of Qi, a grass-roots military official who was in charge of fifty soldiers in the Qi army. The good man of the township of the state of Qi who attacked Yangjiao Township saw that his men were killed, and he was furious and began to retaliate after the break.

"Get up." Zhao Wuxi's face was heavy, he dismounted and helped these people up one by one, "Everyone get up and tell me the whole thing!"

The villagers in Yangjiao Township struggled to get up one after another. One trembling old man leaning on a dove cane had to rely on someone to help him to stand up. Zhao Jun, who was passing by, looked at their neatly swaying feet and the dust raised, with horror on their faces.

In the end, it was the old man who spoke first, telling what happened when the Qi army captured Yangjiao Township.

"The old old family makes a living by brewing wine and running a wine shop. Just by the stone bridge in the village, the township parties say that the corn wine of the old old family is the best in Linqiu, and the village community and sacrifices also use my family's wine..."

The old man liked short stories and long stories. After a while, he cried sadly: "Now it's all gone. After Qi Bing came in, he went to my house to eat and drink, poured the rest of the wine on the ground, and laughed loudly. , the old children and grandchildren reasoned with them, but they were all **** with ropes and taken away as laborers, the old wife died of anger, and now there is only one old man in the family..."

In addition to the sadness of the old man, a sturdy peasant next to him also said angrily: "My home is outside the countryside, and when the Qi army passed through Lilu in the middle of the night, they burned the fields and mansions. Anyone who dared to stop them would die. Not only did they loot, they were just venting, they slaughtered the ox and didn’t eat it, but just left the corpse there to feed the blueflies and crows.”

"I will also crush my disciples to death!" A self-proclaimed gold-tapping craftsman, who was beaten indiscriminately on his face, muttered, "The people of Qi arrested craftsmen everywhere, and if they caught one, they asked if they could smelt iron and forge, no matter what. Whether I said yes or no, they were all taken away. My disciple wanted to escape, but was overtaken by a car from Qi. Jiashi of the state of Qi laughed in the car, ran after him, and shot him with arrows, as if Hunting. My disciple ran all the way like this, and finally fell to the ground, and the wheel went straight over his head."

"How did you escape?"

The man pointed to his leg: "I jumped from the car while passing by the river, and was shot in the leg by an arrow, but I saved my life and didn't have to die in a foreign land."

Zhao Wuxi turned his attention to the girl again. She was only fifteen or sixteen years old, but her face was haggard and she was extremely frightened. Needless to say, she knew that she must have been devastated by Qi soldiers.

Finally, Ran Geng took over the words: "The same is true in the nearby Li Township. The villagers hid in the sentry building to resist, and the Qi people found firewood and burned them alive inside. When someone opened the door and rushed out of the fire, they opened the door. Gong shoots and kills, even the woman with the baby in her arms... The people of Linqiu also returned to the state of Qi five years ago. They speak the same language and have no different customs, but those Qi soldiers don't care, looting and killing everywhere. …”

He raised his head and stared at Zhao Wuxi: "Like, like revenge..."

"Revenge me for breaking Linqiu back then, revenge for Linqiu people who think they are the people of Zhao clan, don't they think of themselves as Qi people? Or to get revenge on the battle of the snowfield a few years ago, I buried many of the Qi people's fathers and brothers here. On a piece of land?"

Zhao Wuxi's anger was accumulating, and he asked coldly, "Who is the general Qi who attacked Linqiu?"

"It's Yang Sheng, the son of Qi, and there is a good man named Lu Qiu Ming."

"Yang Sheng..." Zhao Wuqi coldly said the familiar name, "It is indeed possible for him to do this. This person was captured by me and served as a hostage in Jin for several years, and was released by Zhibo last year. I am afraid that he did this out of anger to raise troops and kill the people under my rule in order to avenge the shame of being captured."

Zhao Wuxi grabbed a passing chariot, and regardless of the surprise and joy of the soldiers above, he boarded it directly, and said condescendingly to the people from Linqiu who came to greet and complain: "Qi people crossed the border and harmed my people. It's like killing my children, I'm one step late, I'm ashamed of the elders of Linqiu, I should be the master for you and take revenge, otherwise, I will do it like this!"

At the end of the speech, Gan Jiang moved his sword, and a strand of black hair fell to the ground. Although the hair was as light as a feather, in the eyes of Linqiu people, this meaning was more important than Mount Tai!

...

In Linqiu, Zhao Wuxi cut off a strand of hair, but just like the last time he asked Zhang Mengtan to burn securities in this city, he not only shocked the whole city, but also aroused their shared hatred. On that day, countless young men in Linqiu City raised their arms, willing to join the army to seek revenge from the Qi army.

"We have also trained several times with Sima and Tingchang on weekdays, and we are willing to serve your lord!"

Of course, Zhao Wuxi couldn't wait for them. He just had people give them weapons. According to the township party Shiwu, he and the recruited Linqiu guards were recruited into the rear army, and more than a thousand people were also gathered.

Afterwards, Zhao Jun continued to march eastwards, Zhao Wuxi was worried, Linqiu had been harmed like this, what would happen to the areas further east?

Thinking like this, from Zhao Wuxi to ordinary soldiers from Lu nationality, they couldn't help but speed up their pace.

Unsurprisingly, from what Zhao Wuxi saw, many areas were ruined and ruined, and many villages they passed through were empty and ruined, regardless of the farmland, township, lilu, or pavilion.

They devastated Ludi like a swarm of locusts, and even set fire to the fields and mulberry forests that the locals depended on for a living. Fortunately, the mulberry leaves were still green in midsummer, and it had rained recently, so the fire did not spread.

Looking all the way ~www.wuxiahere.com~ Zhao Wuxi's heart was bleeding.

Zhen, Linqiu and other places were the first territory he controlled. Wu Xie tried to make the system easier on this land. In the past few years, he personally traveled to many places and put a lot of effort into it, but Qi Jun was madly trying to change this place. For scorched earth.

They couldn't conquer Ludi, so they wanted to destroy the prosperity here. After all, Qi and Lu had been at war with Lu for a hundred years, and their resentment had accumulated for a hundred years. After Zhao Wuxi entered Lu, it was even more out of control. In the Battle of the Snowfield, nearly 10,000 Qi people were killed, and Linzi was full of Sugu. It is not surprising that when the Qi people came back, they would retaliate wildly.

However, according to Ran Geng's description, the military discipline of the Guoxia Department is acceptable, and the Yangsheng Department of Qi Jun's son is the culprit. After the news of Zhao Wuxi breaking Emperor Qiu came, the Guoxia Department began to evacuate all of Xilu. He let Yang Sheng take charge of the rear army, so the son Yang Sheng could issue an order to let the Qi army loot at will, regardless of wealth, Animals are still women, grab what they like, and burn what they don't like...

"I will make Guoxia and Yangsheng regret it." After Zhao Wuqi said this in silence, he went east silently.

His anger finally reached its peak when he passed Gaoyuyi!
