It's getting late, there will be another chapter coming soon!
At a command, the soldiers jumped into the river and drove pre-prepared wooden stakes into the riverbed to form a barrier, preventing the bodies from floating away with the current.
After the wooden stakes were driven in, the three thousand Fierce Tiger Army soldiers, their faces filled with despair, covered their mouths and noses with cloth and began to move the piles of corpses.
"vomit...."
Even with your mouth and nose covered, the indescribable stench still assaults your senses.
Seeing their faces turn green, Zhang Han instinctively shuddered, feeling a pang of pity, and quickly said, "Listen to my command, take turns every half hour."
Now, the other seven thousand soldiers, who had been gloating, turned green with fear and let out a deafening wail.
This scene also happened to Meng Tian and Wang Li at the same time, and they also began to prepare for the 'poisoning'.
The three tribes were completely unaware of the impending catastrophe. Their respective tribes were filled with joy, as the good things they had recently acquired from the Zhao state had significantly improved their quality of life.
They even started to become somewhat lazy; herding horses and sheep was nothing compared to the simple and efficient work of hunting wolves.
With a mere wolf pelt that can bring in enormous wealth, who would want to do that dirty and tiring work?
It truly proves the saying: it's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.
Comfort is indeed one of humanity's greatest enemies!
This indirectly enhanced the effectiveness of the plan to become a villainous husband, which can be considered an unexpected gain.
......
"kill--!"
Li Xin drew his long sword from his waist, raised it to the sky with a furious roar, and officially began the attack on Wei.
The soldiers surged toward Anyi City of Wei like a tidal wave, causing the Wei army on the city walls to panic and organize an offensive.
The newly appointed garrison commander of Anyi, Dai Ning, roared inwardly, cursing the Qin state with all his knowledge. He had spent a lot of money to curry favor in order to get the garrison commander position in Anyi.
I thought it would be a vacancy, but I never expected that Qin would play by its own rules. It's only been a few days since they captured Anyi.
Why is this happening again?
"Quickly send men to mobilize troops from the surrounding areas to provide reinforcements, and at the same time report to the King," Dai Ning weakly instructed his deputy beside him.
He is now prepared to be a coward, hiding in Anyi City and waiting for reinforcements. To this end, he has given a strict order to the 80,000 soldiers guarding the city, forbidding them from leaving the city walls for even a moment!
Just then, a lieutenant came excitedly and said urgently, "Reporting to the general, the commander of the Qin army this time is not that wicked Qin man!"
"Oh?" Dai Ning's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Do you know who this person is?"
The lieutenant grinned broadly, "He is Li Xin, a young general from the Qin state!"
"Li Xin?!"
Having spent a long time in officialdom, Dai Ning was quite familiar with the Qin generals and knew a little about Li Xin's background.
He immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with great joy, "Good, good, as long as it's not that evil husband of the King of Hell, Li Xin is nothing."
"perhaps...."
"This time we can avenge our previous defeat and wipe out Li Xin and the Qin army!"
Indeed, Li Xin was no different from an unknown person at the moment. He had not made any outstanding performances in the battle. At most, he was just a promising young man. He didn't feel much pressure. His mind started to wander.
After much deliberation, Dai Ning decided to observe the situation first and ordered, "The Qin army is not numerous. Let's hold our ground for now. If an opportunity arises, we will attack instead."
"If we had been able to hold Anyi when the Qin army breached it last time, or even have turned the tables and driven them back, then His Majesty's situation would have been... hehe!"
These words ignited a burning passion in the hearts of the lieutenants, who nodded repeatedly in acceptance and went to relay the message to the Wei soldiers, hoping to boost their morale and fighting spirit.
Unfortunately, he was being far too naive!
They had absolutely no idea what state the Qin army they were facing was in!
The soldiers' rations were running low after days of travel, and if they couldn't capture Anyi City, they would go hungry.
Furthermore, before leaving, the wicked man personally promised the soldiers that 30% of the money and grain in the city would belong to them.
For the soldiers, failing to capture the city meant starvation, while capturing the city meant promotions, titles, and riches.
For the head coach Li Xin, failing to break through the barrier would be tantamount to cutting off his own career, while breaking through it would mean a meteoric rise to power.
With so many factors involved, including everyone's interests, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call them wolves and tigers.
The towering walls of Anyi were, in the eyes of the Qin soldiers who were now blinded by rage, nothing more than a slightly higher earthen wall.
Having fully unleashed their human potential, they were like little superheroes, moving swiftly and dodging the rain of arrows to reach the city walls. Without a word, they began their ascent.
"I'm either going to die here today, or I'll experience what the commander-in-chief has done!"
A bearded man was the first to leap up the ladder, climbing with the agility of a monkey, and reached the top of the city wall in just over ten breaths.
He thought he would be riddled with holes in an instant, but the brothers behind him gave him an endless sense of security, blocking the incoming weapons and buying him time.
"Kill! Today, either you die, or I die!"
The man roared as he plunged his sword into a Wei soldier's body. Hot blood splattered on his face, driving him even more mad. "Heroic Qin, fearless and valiant! Brothers, kill!!"
His ruthlessness terrified the Wei army and made the Qin army even more excited and agitated.
As more and more Qin soldiers scaled the city walls and established a foothold, the Wei army's defenses became chaotic. The shadow cast by the previous wicked man had not yet dissipated, and their morale was already somewhat weakened.
"Hahaha, the Qin army is mighty!"
Seeing this, Li Xin laughed heartily. In his surging passion, he even picked up Qin's sword and launched a charge.
"Brothers, break through the city gates quickly! The brothers on the city walls are almost inside!"
These words greatly increased the pressure on the Qin army, who were already struggling with the city gate. They rammed the gate even faster, and the newly repaired gate was once again on the verge of collapse.
Not long after, there was a loud 'bang' and the city gate was smashed open.
"Hahaha, the city has fallen! Brothers, charge!"
"Money......food...."
Li Xin roared repeatedly, and in his excitement, he shouted, "Tonight we'll celebrate in the city, lift the ban on alcohol, embrace our wives, and kill!!"
Okay, okay.
He did something that even a wicked husband wouldn't dare to do.
However, these words acted like a stimulant, driving the already frenzied Qin army to a complete madness.
For soldiers, alcohol and women are their greatest desires.
A bloody storm erupted, and even Qin Jian's sword was flung into the air, causing the Wei army to be terrified and retreat in terror.
Looking at the carnage within the city, Dai Ning's face turned deathly pale, and she murmured in despair, "It's over...it's all over...how can the Qin army...behave like livestock?"
His dream shattered, and he couldn't quite understand it.
Without the wicked husband, the Qin army seems to have become even more ferocious.
On the other side...
Because South Korea was weak to begin with, and Wang Ben came from a prestigious family and had inherited his father's skills, he broke through the Weicheng of South Korea with pleasing methods, without even letting the wicked husband lift a finger.
Erniu and Chun Ning, bored out of their minds, couldn't help but complain, "General... why did you bring us out for this kind of business?"
