"General, you are mighty!"
The entire Black Dragon Armored Army roared in fury, cheering for the wicked man's incredible bravery. Even though it wasn't the first time they had directly witnessed his ferocity, they still found it difficult to calm their shock and excitement.
"Wind, wind, strong wind!"
The Qin soldiers still inside the city gate also roared, their thunderous voices echoing through the tall gate as if to topple the city wall.
The Wei soldiers were terrified, their morale plummeted, and they pushed and shoved each other backward.
"Fire arrows! Fire arrows immediately!" the city's garrison commander roared hysterically.
The lieutenant hesitated, whispering a reminder: "But...but...it will inevitably hurt our own people?!"
The city's garrison commander gave him a cold look. "We can't worry about that now. The Qin army would never attack the city with just a few tens of thousands of men."
The lieutenant's expression changed, and he immediately jogged to the front and ordered, "Crossbows, fire!"
Seeing the Wei soldiers hesitate and try not to fire their arrows, he was furious. "Are you going to disobey orders? The Qin army is brutal. If we don't sacrifice ourselves, we will be wiped out."
He knew what the soldiers were worried about, so he could only patiently offer some words of comfort.
"put!"
"Whoosh..."
A hail of arrows rained down on the city gate.
Instantly, shrill screams rang out, and the Wei soldiers at the forefront, who were engaged in fierce fighting, fell to the ground, riddled with arrows.
"This...this...."
Looking at the large open space that had been cleared in an instant, the wicked husband was so angry that his lips trembled. He raised his finger and started ranting at the city's garrison commander in the distance.
"You brain-dead idiot, do I need your help?"
"Do you even know what this is?!"
The wicked man, his face contorted with deep hatred, roared, "To put it mildly, you're committing treason and colluding with the enemy; to put it more seriously, you're cutting off our brothers' livelihood!"
He wasn't getting carried away; in reality, he was trying to disrupt the morale and fighting spirit of the Wei soldiers, thereby reducing casualties among ordinary Qin soldiers.
After all, the 50,000 Qin troops attacking the city with him were not the Black Dragon Armored Army. They had neither the superior equipment nor the physical strength and martial arts skills of the Black Dragon Armored Army.
The loud words clearly reached the ears of the city's garrison commander, making his heart pound and nearly causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"This child... is truly unworthy of being called a human being!!"
He knew perfectly well what "wicked husband" meant, yet he still couldn't control the rage in his heart, wishing he could tear that wicked husband apart.
The lieutenant standing beside him sighed abruptly upon seeing this. The moment the order to fire the arrows was given, he knew that today was likely to be difficult. Now, seeing his commander being provoked to the point of losing his mind by a few words, he immediately retreated silently, preparing to flee Juancheng.
at the same time.
The Meng'ao and Biaogong city gates outside the city were wide open, indicating that the Wei army had focused all its efforts on these gates. They immediately split into three groups and attacked the other three city gates.
The 150,000-strong army was divided into three parts and headed straight for the other three city gates. They broke through the gates with almost no trouble and then stormed into the city.
"Kill!" The Qin soldiers who stormed into the city hacked at anyone they saw, heading towards the east gate where the evil man was located, trying to form a pincer attack with the Black Dragon Armored Army.
Besieged on all sides, the Wei soldiers inside the city were completely panicked and overwhelmed by the Qin army charging in from all directions, unable to even maintain their formation.
"Are you still going to fire arrows or not?" the wicked man asked with a mocking smile, then raised his arm and led his men in a fierce attack on the Wei army.
Meng Ao and Biao Gong rode into the city, where they were met with corpses and blood splattered everywhere. Both of them were veterans who had been through many battles, and they were not bothered by the hellish scene in front of them.
As they advanced deeper into the city, the shouts of battle grew increasingly intense, and Qin soldiers could be seen frantically chasing and killing Wei soldiers in the streets and alleys.
Meng Ao happened to see Zhang Han leading his men to surround and kill a Wei army of over a thousand men, and immediately shouted, "Where is this wicked man? They've been beaten to a pulp, why haven't they surrendered yet?"
Upon hearing Meng Ao's question, Zhang Han had no choice but to withdraw from the killing and gasped, "Reporting to the commander, General Evil has ordered the massacre of Wei soldiers, leaving no survivors."
Meng Ao and Biao Gong were dumbfounded. This kid was far too bloodthirsty. With the war situation having developed to this point, what was the point of massacring the city?
Biao Gong raised an eyebrow, stroked his beard, and laughed loudly: "This lad's temperament is very much to my liking. He should be like this! Otherwise, he will continue to be an enemy of my Great Qin in the future."
The historical record mentions Biao Gong only briefly, but it is related to today's battle. When the Qin general Biao Gong attacked the city of Wei, the city fell, and he massacred 30,000 Wei soldiers.
It was precisely because of Biao Gong's massacre of 30,000 Wei soldiers that he angered Lü Buwei, who, together with Empress Dowager Zhao Ji, dismissed him and questioned him. From then on, he was removed from the Qin court, where he was ranked alongside generals such as Meng Ao, which was truly a pity.
"Go, find him immediately!" Meng Ao glanced at Biao Gong, then gave Zhang Han a firm order.
Helpless, Zhang Han could only turn and leave, heading into the city to find his wicked husband.
After an incense stick has burned.
Zhang Han followed his furious husband back with a wry smile. He was filled with resentment after being scolded so harshly.
"Commander, what do you mean? Are you trying to ruin my chance to make money?" the wicked husband asked angrily, his face full of displeasure and regret.
If he had known it would turn out like this, he should have just replaced him with a more obedient coach!
Look, if someone who didn't know better saw this, they would think he was Qin Shi Huang.
"Hey, you brat!" Meng Ao laughed angrily, scolding, "They were clearly defeated, why did you have to kill them all? Committing murder without authorization, do you think you're Lord Wu'an?"
He was also concerned for the wicked husband, so as not to leave a bad reputation later. The path of Lord Wu'an is not one that others can easily follow!
"Commander, Lü Buwei has already fallen, why are you still so worried?" The evil man sighed heavily, and then explained, "If the Wei army doesn't kill him, they'll waste food. If they let him go back to Wei, they'll fight us again in the future."
"Why did Lord Wu'an massacre 400,000 surrendered soldiers during the Battle of Changping? You served as a subordinate general under Lord Wu'an back then, didn't you know the implications?"
Meng Ao was a cautious and steady man his whole life, and he was absolutely unwilling to get involved in such high-risk matters. It is no wonder that his achievements were not as good as those of Wang Jian, who was decisive and efficient.
"Sigh... Fine, I came here to cover for you anyway, so go ahead and slaughter me if you want." Meng Ao quickly understood his position and chose to let the wicked husband do as he pleased.
Perhaps he has truly grown old, and no longer possesses the youthful vigor and decisiveness of a wicked man.
The wicked husband solemnly clasped his hands in a salute, saying, "Thank you, General!"
After saying this, he turned and left to continue leading his men to wipe out the Wei soldiers in the city.
Night slowly fell, a cold wind began to blow, and snowflakes began to fall.
The wicked man dragged the city garrison commander to the general's mansion in the center of the city to meet Meng Ao and Biao Gong, who were staying there.
"Reporting to the General!"
"All the Wei soldiers were killed; this man was the garrison commander of Juancheng."
After three hours of slaughter, the city was finally over. Apart from the city's garrison commander who had failed to escape, no other Wei soldiers survived.
Thus, the Qin army won a great victory in the Battle of Juancheng!
