The tribes outside the Great Wall, such as Gojoseon and Buyeo, have always been eyeing the prosperity of the Central Plains. This time, they almost broke through the defense line of the Great Wall while their father was dealing with the Xiongnu coalition forces.
He held the imperial edict tightly in his hand. He was a prince of the Qin Dynasty, and most of the generals were in Shangjun. He had to stand up.
"I have something to do with the county magistrate. I won't be back at noon or in the evening. You take care of yourself at home." Fusu looked at Wang Xia gently, gripped his sword tightly, and said seriously.
"Okay, go ahead." Wang Xia said seriously. She also knew that the barbarians were coming to attack.
Now Fusu has to resist foreign invaders. He is the eldest son of the Qin Dynasty, and this is a responsibility he must shoulder.
The troops from the three counties were quickly mobilized towards the Great Wall, and there were more than 30,000 troops outside the pass watching covetously.
The combined military strength of the three counties was only over 8,000 soldiers, and the number of barbarian soldiers was several times that of the Qin army.
Even so, no one retreated. They wanted to defend their country and they were the barrier of the Qin Dynasty.
Fortunately, the soldiers on the Qin side are stronger than those barbarians, and their weapons are also superior, so they have a chance of winning this battle.
Early the next morning, Fusu and three county lieutenants stood on the Great Wall, looking out with telescopes in their hands.
Seeing the barbarians leading their army towards the Great Wall, they ordered, "All troops, please be on martial law. Prepare your bows and crossbows, boulders and rolling logs."
Fusu gave orders one by one, and the telescope in his hand allowed them to detect the movements of the barbarians in advance, allowing them to make arrangements in advance.
I thanked my younger sister again in my heart. This telescope is really useful. Without it, Daqin would have suffered a lot of losses.
"Prince Fusu, everything has been arranged." The Yuyang County Magistrate immediately reported.
"Very good, gather the troops and follow me to charge out and drive these barbarians out of the border of our Great Qin." Fusu drew his sword.
"promise."
The leader of Fuyu frowned when he saw the weapons prepared by the Qin side. They were originally planning a surprise attack.
The Qin Dynasty is very rich now, which makes them all jealous.
As long as they can grab it this time, they can live a little easier this year.
However, even if they made preparations, the main force of the Qin Dynasty was not in Liaodong County, and the number of soldiers guarding the Great Wall was far less than theirs.
Although the Qin soldiers occupied the natural barrier, they were not at an advantage in numbers. They could fight well in this battle, and their chances of winning were very high.
He exchanged glances with the leader of Gojoseon and gave the order to attack the city.
They had jointly decided to seize the first wave. Of course, it would be even better if they could take control of the Central Plains.
"Shoot." Looking at the attacking Buyeo and Gojoseon people, Fusu gave the order to shoot with a cold face.
At a command, arrows rained down on them.
They were not unprepared for such a dense rain of arrows, and they held shields in their hands to protect themselves.
However, some shields were broken into pieces by the rain of arrows, while some shields could not block the arrows and were directly shot into sieves.
Under the rain of arrows, these troops began to approach the walls of the Great Wall and tried to climb up using ladders.
These small tribes are short of supplies, and having these weapons is already very good, let alone having siege vehicles and other siege tools.
As the ladder was put up, Fusu gave another order, and the rolling logs fell down, directly knocking down the barbarians who were trying to climb up.
The sounds of fighting were everywhere. The Qin soldiers were fearless and the smell of blood was everywhere.
Fusu drew his sword and pointed it at the Buyeo and Jizi Joseon people. "The barbarians have suffered heavy losses. To prevent them from escaping, everyone, follow me out to kill the enemy."
The city gates opened, and Fusu rode his horse and led the charge towards the barbarian army.
This was the first time he had experienced such a war, but he knew that he had to do this. These were barbarians, not the people of the Qin Dynasty. If he let them go, it would cause too much harm to the Qin Dynasty.
-----------------
It was three days later when Zhao Qingrui received the battle report.
Looking at the battle report, a smile appeared on Zhao Qingrui's face.
With the advantages of strength and equipment, even though he was at a disadvantage in numbers, Fusu still met her expectations.
"When conquering Buyeo and Jizi conquered Joseon, the eldest prince Fusu led the troops and made great military achievements for the Qin Dynasty. He guarded the borders of the Qin Dynasty and saved the people of Qian from being invaded." Zhao Qingrui stood at the head.
"God bless the Great Qin, long live the Great Qin." The shouts from below were deafening.
"Brother has made great contributions and deserves a reward. What do you think?" Zhao Qingrui asked the people below. She was not planning to promote Fusu and had no intention of letting him come back for the time being.
There are still many areas that need to be developed in Liaodong County, and she is not at ease if someone else goes there.
"Your Highness, Prince Fusu has defeated Buyeo and Gojoseon. With such a great achievement, he should be promoted to a higher level." Chunyu Yue stepped forward and wanted to bring Fusu back to Xianyang from the desolate place of Liaodong County.
"Your Highness, Prince Fusu has made military achievements. How about rewarding him according to his military merits?" Wang Ben stood up. It was obvious that Your Highness had no intention of letting Prince Fusu come back. In order not to make things difficult for Your Highness, he took the initiative to offer suggestions.
"Yes, Marquis Tongwu is right. Prince Fusu should be rewarded according to his military merits." Li Si immediately stood up to agree. There was already a crown prince in the court, and there was no need for a second one.
Zhao Qingrui was not close to Confucianism, but he still admired the ideas of Legalism. He believed that the Qin Dynasty would also rule the country according to law in the future. Li Si was very satisfied with this candidate for crown prince.
