"General must not act irresponsible!" Looking at Bai Lin who was furious, Su Fu on one side immediately advised him. He probably guessed that this was the result. He pointed out "The Jing people used witch medicine to blow me up, but after the explosion, they should not blow it up again. As soon as they enter the city."

Bai Lin didn't know that the defenders would bury gunpowder, but he just took a lucky mentality and thought that the area where the defenders had carefully selected would not bury gunpowder. He had to bury gunpowder while digging the city. Even if it could be buried, the range would be very small. What he didn't expect was that the defenders would not bury gunpowder at all. The gunpowder was installed on the cart, and the carts could be pushed out one by one.

Compared with the dozens of tons of precious gunpowder seized by the Qin army, the gunpowder in the hands of the Chu army was five to six hundred tons. Although so many gunpowder could not be filled in the entire venue, it was enough to deal with the gaps that the Qin army exploded. The smoke of gunpowder was gone, and the door on the earth wall opened, and a new cart filled with gunpowder was pushed out from the earth wall. The swords and shields also set up long ladders and crossed the trenches to finish the killing of Qin soldiers on the ground. The blood feud between the Ba people, and the undead Ba people in Langzhong were all cut off their heads.

Everything that happened in the north of the city was within the sight of the Wangchengque Tower. Seeing the cars in the north of the city exploded one after another, bursting out a ball of fire. Nao looked at Li Qi and nodded, feeling that what Li Qi said was not false. At this time, the south of the city and the east of the city also roared one after another. Like the north of the city, the Qin soldiers rushing into the city were blown away by gunpowder.

"Our army replenishes the city overnight, and the Qin people will have to bomb again tomorrow." Li Qie said hurriedly when he saw Nao looking at him.

"Good!" Naojiu knew the subsequent combat plan of the Operations Department.

The Qin army braved the cold that night in the sand sea, and the most important harvest was that it seized a lot of military funds, such as gunpowder. The Grand Sima Mansion did not know how much gunpowder the Qin army had, but based on the entire combat process of the Chu army, it would not exceed sixty tons at most. Today, the Qin army used at least 2 or 30 tons of gunpowder, and the remaining gunpowder could support a similar attack at most.

In order to avoid being attacked by the defenders on all sides at night, the Qin army would inevitably withdraw their troops to the camp tonight, which gave the defenders time to repair the walls. Tomorrow morning, the craftsmen in the city could repair all the exploded city walls. The Qin army could blow up again, but the gunpowder was limited. The Operations Department believed that the Qin army would definitely cherish gunpowder and dare not siege again on all sides.

Naoji nodded to Li Qi and said goodness, but Li Qi smiled on his face and his ears were standing. Before the night fell, he had to hear the Qin army's sound of gold to make sure that everything was as expected by the Battle Department and finally felt at ease. If the Qin army did not sound the gold, although it would not hinder the defenders from repairing the wall overnight, it would be difficult to predict whether they would make a desperate bet and attack again tomorrow.

Time always passes quickly in the war. When the great relocation approaches, the Qin army rushed into the city from the gap. However, this time the number of people rushed into the city was very small, only a few thousand, and the attack was also tentative. When the gunpowder on the car was detonated again, the Qin soldiers who were escaping on the ground scattered like before and quickly escaped from the gap.

After this tentative attack, the golden sound of "Dangdang" finally sounded from the top of Zijin Mountain. Hearing the sound of the top of the mountain, the Qin army, who did not want to be attacked by the defenders at night, could only slowly retreat back to the camp to the west.

Bai Lin had no choice but to order Wang Jian to retreat. After witnessing the arrangement of the defenders in the city, he thought that the defenders had buried witch medicine in the overlapping inner areas of the city. He couldn't tell whether he could attack from the north of the city tonight to the north of the city. Even if he could attack the north of the city, there would not be many people left of the six lieutenants. It was obviously unsafe to be stationed in the north of the city at night. Before the Qin army had time to set up camps, they did not raise the curtain. If the defenders concentrated their troops to attack on the side at night, especially the camp and burned food, grass and supplies, the result would be disastrous.

Bai Lin's idea was like this, but taking advantage of the last ray of light falling from the night sky, the Xunwen that Wang Jian sent to Xianyang was not like this. He described the difficulties of siege in the past few days in Xunwen, especially emphasizing the failure of the siege today. The brave Ba people lost more than 4,000 people in this battle, which was half of the Pakistani people in the army. The chiefs had complained and were unwilling to fight again.

The battle situation is like this, and the Huai River will soon thaw. The chances of capturing Shouying before the Huai and Fei thaw are extremely slim. Even if the Qin army is forced to attack, there will be few soldiers left. The best choice is to temporarily suspend the offensive. After the spring plowing in March, another group of soldiers will be recruited from the whole country to attack the city. The method of Yancheng will inevitably lead to the destruction of Shouying.

When Wang Jian went south from Daliang, Zhao Zheng returned to Xianyang after dealing with his childhood enemy of Zhao. Wang Jian's news was sent to Zhao Zheng's desk in Weinan before nightfall. His news was tactful, but Zhao Zheng was still very clear about the meaning revealed between the lines.

Wang Jian did not want to order these tens of thousands of Qin troops to attack Shouying fiercely, but wanted to recruit soldiers and increase their troops. It is very likely that the newly recruited soldiers would attack Shouying. Of course, there was only one purpose, and he did not want to consume the old Qin soldiers in Guanzhong.

If it were the past, Zhao Zheng would have lamented that Wang Jian was a successful country, but now Qin is about to unify the world. He is no longer the King of Qin but the Emperor, and everything will undergo earth-shaking changes. For him personally, in addition to the different titles, in addition to the harem, there will be more concubines, and the rank of the palace etiquette system will be increased accordingly, and the "Zhao" clan will also be completely removed.

The family represented the fiefdom. The ancestors of Qin State once protected Zaofu, the ancestor of Zhao, so they followed Zaofu's clan. After that, although the Qin office had a fief, they did not remove the Zhao family to show that they did not forget their previous kindness, and the result continued until now. The princes had fiefdoms and naturally took the fiefdom as their clan. The emperor owned the world, but You're surrendered his identity and naturally could not have a clan. In other words, if the world was unified in the future, Zhao Zheng would no longer be Zhao Zheng, and he must be called Ying Zheng, so he would be the emperor.

Zhao Zheng became Ying Zheng, and Qin became the world. As Dr. Qi Chunyu Yue said, the people were no longer just Qin people, but also people in the world. He had to regard the world as Qin people, so that the people in the world would return to their hearts and the rule of the surname Ying could be passed down for generations. From this perspective, Wang Jian was no longer a concise country, but a narrow Qin supremacy.

He pity the lives of Qin soldiers, but not the lives of Guandong soldiers. He valued the old Qin people, but did not value the people of the world. In the past, Guandong was an enemy, but now Guandong Qianshou is a people. This practice will surely arouse the anger of Guandong Qianshou...

Under the candle, Zhao Zheng, general Wang Jian, read the news again and again. He was holding a pen and wanted to recall Wang Jian and then ordered Bai Lin to temporarily take over the position of general. But thinking that Wang Jian might not mean this, his other intention might be that he did not want to lose too many soldiers, so he asked himself to attack Shouying slowly. He took back his intentions and stood up to look at the map of the world on one side of the case.

Except for the vast land of Chu in the south and the Qi people who retreated to the Jiaolai Peninsula to the east of the map, the whole world was owned by the Qin Dynasty. Zhao Zheng was not intoxicated, and his eyes were fixed on Kuaiji in Yue. The news received by the Guowei Mansion was that hundreds of thousands of Chu boys and dozens of Chu craftsmen even had their families, Ouyue, and Outer Yue. Just like last year, they would avoid Penglai in more than two months.

Shouying is about 1,500 miles away from Kuaiji. If Shouying has not been pulled out next month, it will be a terrible thing to stop evacuation from land. When the Zhou army was ordered to go south along the coastal route of Kuaiji, the Zhou army led by Yang Duanhe was blocked in the Shaohai by the Jing people's gunboats. The Shaofu rushed to build warships day and night, but the warships built by the Shaofu could not sail immediately, at least the Hainan was south, and the Jing people's gunboats would be blocked.

Looking at the cities on the map, Zhao Zheng quickly thought of the reason why the Zhou army could not go south. The home port of the Jing people's gunboat was Langya in the south. If the Qin army did not pull out Langya, the Zhou army would naturally be blocked by the Jing people's gunboats and could not go south.

"Langya, Shouying." Zhao Zheng was reciting the names of two cities on the water and land routes. If Langya is not pulled out, the boat army will not go south; if Shouying is not pulled out, the Lu army will not go south. 'Cough cough, cough...cough cough...cough...' Zhao Zheng, who thought about this, was a little happy just now, and suddenly he couldn't help coughing. Last month, he was worried about the excessive war, and in those days, he was extremely cold, and he also suffered some cold.

"It's time for the king to take medicine." Zhao Gao stopped and reminded him.

"The medicine is very difficult to use, it's better not to use it." Zhao Zheng frowned when he mentioned the medicine. He subconsciously said, "Where is Xia Wuqi? I will order him to come to my bed tomorrow afternoon to diagnose my illness."

"Reported to the great king, the imperial physician heard that the doctor in Jing wanted to cut off his chest, so he went to Yongcheng." Zheng bowed and said, talking about Xia Wuqi's place of going.

"Yongcheng? Chest-cutting?" Zhao Zheng asked in confusion. Although the chest-cutting incident was circulating in Xianyang City, he was worried about national affairs and military affairs.

"Report to the king," Zhao Zheng was a small temple man named Ping. He did not like to use older temple man. "It is reported that Jing people are about to die. Jing Tu asked Bai Di people to postpone the chest for five days and wanted to cut off the chest for this person. If the chest is cut off, he would die, but he did not know how to treat Jing Tu. The imperial physician heard that he left Xianyang overnight. If Jing Tu really could save the dead person, he could enter the palace and be the king and the queen mother would treat him."

Zhengping is well-behaved, knows how to understand his feelings, and speaks with laughter. He is loyal. Zhao Zheng sneered at this suggestion. He sighed: "The nature of Jing people is to die rather than surrender. I will order him to enter the palace and commit suicide like Feng Li. Why should he kill another person?"

Zhao Zheng was a little dark when he thought of suicide. He wanted to ask Feng Li to enter the palace to be an imperial physician, but Feng Li was unwilling to live alone and was willing to die with the more than 2,000 injured Chu soldiers. It was not that Zhao Zheng who had not expected to pardon these more than 2,000 Chu soldiers, but these Chu soldiers were unruly and were determined to die. He could not find a reason to pardon. How could he indulge himself to be Lu Zheng and slander his mother's enemy?

"The little minister is guilty." Seeing that Zhao Zheng's expression suddenly became unhappy, Zheng Ping immediately knelt down.
