My brother is the most handsome man in the Qin Dynasty

Invasion.

  release.

  The two words are different, worlds apart.

  The second emperor was very satisfied.

  When he said the word "invasion", he paused deliberately to observe whether the Qin army in the audience looked excited.

  Yes, but not many, twenty-three out of ten.

  When Meng Tian said the word "liberation", [-] people cheered with approval on their faces.

  Two things proved one thing: his hard work this winter was not in vain.

  Since Shang Yang's reform, he established twenty ranks of military meritorious officials, and he dug a corner into the militaristic building that made the Qin people brave in foreign wars and committed aggression.

  "I was wrong."

  He shouted loudly and sincerely.

  Because there had been no emotional fluctuations in his previous words, this sudden emotion seemed particularly sincere.

  "If we remain indifferent now, when those greedy silverfish and inhumane remnants of the Six Nations invade the border, who will wave the flag and shout for us?
  "Behind us are our father, mother, and children. If anyone wants to harm them, we will fight them tooth and nail!"

  "We have no retreat for a long time! We must take the initiative!

  "Force is for protection, not for persecution. This is not aggression, but liberation.

  "All over the world, there are Qin people like you and me. They are proud of Qin. How can Qin abandon them!

  "A temporary war is for a lifetime of peace. We will never allow ambitious people to invade our land and persecute our compatriots!"

  The second emperor was so impassioned that he pulled out the three-foot Qin sword from his waist with one hand, and smashed the loudspeaker on the ground with the other hand, causing fragments to fly everywhere.

  His mouth was wide open, his face was ferocious, and without the blessing of a loudspeaker, the hysterical shouting sound spread throughout the audience.

  "Jiujiao Lao Qin! Let's fight against the national calamity together! Let's not bleed dry! Let's fight until we die!"

  There is nothing beautiful about the Second Emperor like this.

  Like a hunter who has a family behind him and a son at home, facing a bloodthirsty tiger in front of him, knowing he is outmatched but still charging.

  That terrifying sound was the courageous roar of the hunter.

  Fan Er in the audience was so excited that he was trembling with excitement.

  The second emperor like this is more brave than he imagined. This is his second emperor!
  Although His Majesty is a bit cowardly compared to previous monarchs, although His Majesty does not have the arrogant majesty of the previous King and the First Emperor, although His Majesty's words are too straightforward and have no sense of mystery, Fan Ersheng cannot afford to have a sense of awe.

  But Fan Er, who had participated in the Battle of Chu and the Battle of Qi, was red-eyed for the first time. He could die for the majesty in front of him immediately!

  It wasn't because of his cowardly words before the war that he misunderstood that the man in silver armor was the king of Qin.

  It's because of the flesh growing on the faces of the two sons.

  It was because my father was warming himself by the fire with a satisfied smile.

  It's because Xijun, who has been worried about his family all year round and has a frown on his face and is perfunctory in doing things, can take the initiative to sit on the millstone that he works hard on and sing happily.

  Fan Er doesn't even think about the hard days of the past!

  He will kill anyone who is unfavorable to the king who has made his family better, and whoever wants him to go back to his old days! Risk your life to kill!

  Boom boom boom!
  He grabbed the long spear with a wooden handle and an iron head that had become his main battle weapon instead of the bronze Chang Ge, which he had newly acquired in the winter, and banged it hard on the ground.

  Two hundred thousand Qin troops beat together, and the wooden poles hit the ground that had not yet thawed and trembled, like an earth dragon turning over.

  They followed the second emperor in silver armor, who looked like a Qin man but not a king, and shouted loudly.

  "Jiujiao Lao Qin! Let's fight against the national calamity together! Let's not bleed dry! Let's fight until we die!"

  "Jiujiao Lao Qin! Let's fight against the national calamity together! Let's not bleed dry! Let's fight until we die!"

  "Jiujiao Lao Qin! Let's fight against the national calamity together! Let's not bleed dry! Let's fight until we die!"

  "..."

  Deafening. I don’t know whether this is for protection, or just for the sound of the bloody battle of the Second Emperor in Silver Armor, drifting towards the east...

  Linji is an ancient city on the bank of the Yellow River, ten miles away from the Yellow River embankment.

  This is the westernmost county seat occupied by the Wei State after its restoration, and it is also the closest county seat to the Qin State.

  On March [-]th, at noon, when the sun was at its best, [-] Qin troops crossed the Yellow River.

  During the process of crossing the river, a dozen mounted Wei soldiers on the water bank immediately watched and did not dare to approach.

  After the first Qin army crossed the river, they turned their horses and fled.

  This is the order issued by Zhou Shi, the Linji guard general, the prime minister of the Wei state, and the general - just wait and see, and then return after crossing the Yellow River.

  With the Yellow River at our back, we buried pots to make rice, and scouts went ahead.

  Two hundred thousand Qin troops stopped on the bank of the Yellow River to rest for an hour. The sun moved westward without setting, and the army set off.

  Half an hour later, [-] Qin troops were waiting in formation outside the ancient city of Linji.

  Li Xin, who led the front army and was the vanguard, vowed to avenge his disgrace in a battle, rode his horse in the military formation, holding a pair of binoculars in his hand, and carefully observed the Linji city wall.

  The wall is yellow in color, more than three feet high, and is covered with traces of new soil.

  On the top of the city, there are soldiers every five steps, and there are crossbows at every crenel.

  The original city wall of Linji County was less than one foot. From the time when the Wei State raised its banner to restore the country, it has been built up to two feet in just one month.

  The city wall is three feet high and nine meters high, and the troops and equipment are fully equipped. This configuration is no longer inferior to the capital of a small country.

  From the fact that the Wei army did not stop when they crossed the Yellow River, to the epic wave of reinforcements in Linji City, Li Xin made a judgment.

  Wei Jun decided not to get out.

  He frowned, a siege battle was more than ten times more difficult than a field battle.

  It would have been better if we had sent out troops one month earlier...

  he said in his heart.

  A month earlier, the Linji City in front of me had only a wall less than a foot high, so I rushed up while holding back my urine.

  If you want to rush forward now, the price will be higher. The Qin soldiers in the front will have to be beaten to the shit.

  Regaining his mentality, Li Xin ordered a Qin soldier to be an envoy to carry a letter to Linji City to persuade Zhou Shi to surrender.

  The envoy rode his horse and drove to the gate of Linji City with the letter written by the second emperor.

  Li Xin sighed, feeling in his heart that there was really no need, so he could just start fighting.

  If you want to surrender, why rebel?
  This letter of persuasion to surrender might as well be replaced with a threatening letter, written on tens of thousands of pieces of paper, asking the archers to shoot all the archers into the city.

  Just write the content:
  [On the day the city was broken, no one, no man, woman, nor child was left alive. 】

  In this case, perhaps the people of Linji City would riot in fear, tie up Zhou Shi to protect themselves, and open the city gates to let the Qin army in.

  All the generals agreed. This strategy is just like hitting across the river. It is a military strategy that can be understood by just a little bit of ink on the belly. It is an old trick, but it is durable and very effective.

  But the Lord will not allow it.

  "What if Linji doesn't surrender?

  "We will definitely defeat Linji City. If we let this word out, there is no credibility if we don't massacre it.

  "A massacre of a city will cause fierce resistance and lose people's support."

  Li Xin disagreed, and he saw that Tu Sui, Zhao Tuo and other generals present also disagreed.

  If you don't surrender, you will definitely massacre the city if you defeat them. Not only can you make money for the people below, but you can also establish your majesty and frighten the world.

  If the rebels in the counties behind them did not want to suffer the same fate, they would surrender early. How could this cause fierce resistance?

  Those who resist fiercely are the weights of the bastard's heart. They will resist until they die whether they slaughter the city or not.
