Great Qin Emperor

Chapter 187

Jicheng in the night is not as quiet as usual, but the voices of people are noisy, the sound of construction is incessant, countless people are sweating profusely, reinforcing the city wall of Jicheng.

King Yan originally planned to withdraw to Liaodong, but when King Qin's order came, he immediately changed his mind and decided to stick to Jicheng.This is good, on the contrary, it saves Ju Xin a lot of trouble, and secretly sighs that his thousands of words of persuasion are not worth Qin Wang's few words.At the end of the Warring States Period, Qin State was far more powerful than the Six Kingdoms. Especially during the reign of Qin Shihuang, he managed Qin State far ahead of his ancestors. His famous name shocked the monarchs of the Six Kingdoms. They expressed it in different ways, most of which were insults and little praise, which also proved from another aspect how much energy the King of Qin had at that time.As soon as his will came, would King Yan dare not carry it out?Especially that sentence of Yan Guo's words made King Yan's heart tremble even more.

"Hurry up, hurry up, move faster, you pigs who only know how to eat dry food, you have no energy at all. By the time you finish your work, the Zhao people will have already come in." The people beat them on the head and cursed: "Your wives, your daughters, your old mothers, and your dying grandmothers will all be stripped naked by the Zhao people. If you want to wear a cuckold, just be lazy, and if you don't want to be a turtle Work harder."

The soldiers of Zhao State are ruthless, and the soldiers of Yan State are not bad. The common people are in a dilemma.This is the helpless life of the people in troubled times, which is why later generations lamented the saying "I would rather be a dog in the world than a man in troubled times".

There was a sound of hurried and heavy footsteps, and it was Ju Xin who came to patrol with soldiers. Seeing the people working hard under the lights, he still felt that it was not enough, and shouted: "What are you standing there for, don't you want them to hurry up?" If the flesh is loose, help him tighten it." The soldiers understood, whipped their whips and whipped them violently, making the people cry.

Just as the soldiers were showing off their power, there was a sudden sound of drums in the Zhao camp. The sound of the drums was so loud that an unknown number of drums were beating together. It was more powerful than thunder.

Ju Xin's heart skipped a beat. Before he could yell out, he didn't know who yelled, "Oh my god, the Zhao army is attacking the city." After a sound, the common people dropped their tools and ran away.

Zhao Jun's siege was the most feared thing in Yan State. The soldiers and the people were all afraid. They fled and ran away.

"Stop, stop!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Ju Xin yelled loudly, but Yan State suffered too many defeats in front of Zhao State, and the people of Yan State were so frightened when they heard the name of Zhao Jun, how could Ju Xin hold back? Can live.

Gritting his steel teeth, Ju Xin shouted: "Archers, get ready, shoot!" With an order, the archers fired random arrows, and those people and soldiers who were eager to escape immediately became the souls of the arrows.

"Pass down my order: Anyone who leaves his post without authorization, and anyone who flees, kill!" Ju Xin issued a strict order to mobilize the army to suppress it.Under the blow of his iron fist, the possible expansion of the riots was finally contained.

However, the country of Yan also paid a heavy price. More than 2000 civilians and soldiers died in this suppression action. The whole city of Ji was noisy all night, and no one could sleep.

What is strange is that the news of Zhao Jun's attack, which was rumored in Jicheng, has not been verified. The soldiers waited intently on the city wall for the enemy. .

After dawn, the King of Yan got a report that no Zhao army was attacking the city. His courage, which was so frightened, suddenly turned into a leopard courage.

"Where are the Zhao people? Why are there no Zhao people?" Seeing Ju Xin's face, King Yan immediately asked.

Regarding this question, Ju Xin's military talent is not outstanding, he is the tallest of the dwarves, how can he answer, Gu Zuo said to him, "Go back to the king, God bless my country of Yan, Zhao Jun did not attack the city. "

It was a good thing not to be attacked, and King Yan was relieved. He climbed to the top of the city, looked at Zhao Ying, who was dozens of miles away from the city, and said: "The drums are really loud. They have been ringing all night. They are also really energetic, and they are not tired after knocking for so long. Hey, Zhao people are so strange that they can keep company with birds. Look, magpies are flying around in the camp, chirping non-stop. "

There is a saying that "there is no general in Shu, Liao Hua is the vanguard", Ju Xin can become the pillar general of Yan, and this is similar, his military talent is not commendable. Camp, I can't understand it.

It happened that the envoy of Qin came over, looked at Zhao Ying once, and said: "Your Majesty, hurry up and order General Ju Xin to lead the army to pursue Zhao Jun, or it will be too late."

As long as Jicheng is safe, the king of Yan would not dare to chase after Zhao Jun, saying: "Your envoy doesn't know, if our army goes out of the city, without support, it won't be Li Mu's snack."

Qin envoy shook his head slightly and said: "Your Majesty does not know that Camp Zhao is an empty camp. Please look, Majesty, that is a magpie, that is a lark, and they are singing happily in Zhao Camp, which means that the Zhao army has already evacuated. Only an empty camp was left to impress the king." King Yan was still a little unbelievable, but Qin envoy continued to analyze: "How can there be hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in it, and the reason why the birds dare to sing."

King Yan was not convinced yet, and said: "But the sound of the drum is earth-shattering. If no one is there, how can it be played so loudly?"

The envoy of Qin once again lamented that there was no one in the country of Yan, and said: "The foreign minister deduced that the drum was not played by humans, but by animals. It was probably a sheep. Li Mu hung the sheep in the air, tied its front legs to a high place, and placed a drum underneath. , The sheep's hind legs kick up and down, and the drum sounds without beating. This method has been used before, and it is not surprising that Li Mu just borrowed the method from the predecessors."

This method is a bit unimaginable, King Yan didn't quite believe it, and said: "Go to a few people to find out."

Several soldiers went out of the city and entered Zhao camp.After a while, he turned back from Zhao Ying, brought back a drum, drove a fat goat, and reported: "My lord, there is no one in Zhao Ying, only sheep, and it is the sheep playing the drum."

The king of Yan saw that the drum was broken. Needless to say, the sheep was too fat and powerful, and the drum was broken. He praised: "Mr. is really a man! Ju Xin, are you still waiting for the wine or the meat?" , don’t hurry to catch up.”

Li Mu is really powerful, just such an empty plan caused the whole city of Ji to be in chaos for one night, causing thousands of deaths and injuries.

Ju Xin was so ashamed that he responded and was about to go after Li Mu, but Qin envoy hurriedly stopped him: "Wait a minute."

"What advice do you have, sir?" Ju Xin asked.

Qin Envoy said: "Li Mu must definitely chase after him, but he can't chase like this."

King Yan asked very interestedly: "Excuse me, sir, how should I pursue?"
