There was a sound of footsteps, followed by the sound of pouring wine.

The guard was very considerate and gave the wine bowl to him after pouring it. Unfortunately, Wei Yang was in a very bad mood now, otherwise he would have stood up and patted the guard on the shoulder, praised him for a few words, and gave him a future. Like all those who longed for success, Wei Yang's life fate was always dominated by others in the first half of his life, so he naturally wanted to enjoy the feeling of dominating the fate of others.

Wei Yang drank all the wine and didn't even look at the guard; perhaps his fate would become the same as this guard soon? The king is not a fool. Once he finds out the cause of defeat in the war, he, the Minister of Reform, will be afraid that he will be the leader.

The guard was really good at acting and actually poured him a bowl of wine. This happened three times in a row. However, when he put down the bowl for the fourth time, there was no anticipation of the wine, but a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "Are you sure you want to continue drinking?"

"Yeah!"

Seeing the person standing in front of him clearly, Wei Yang stood up with a thrill, and suddenly felt his legs weak. He actually got up to kneel in front of this man. Looking at the whole of Lao Qin, perhaps only this man could get another chance for him in front of him? But in the end he still did not kneel down. The famous scholars in the world should have their own pride. The opportunity was not from begging, and the person in front of him would definitely look down on the cordyceps.

"After you can still recognize me, I thought the famous Wei Zi was so drunk that he couldn't recognize people..."

Bai Dong pressed Wei Yang's shoulder and signaled him to sit down: "General Che Ying and I brought a 30,000 army, but the king did not come. This battle to suppress the rebellion was related to the long-term stability of the Qin Dynasty. Everyone in the world was staring at the king, so the king was only willing to appear in victory..."

"What does 六威 mean?"

"You lose for a while. Then you win back. When I come, the Lord asked me to tell you that he will not choose someone easily, and once he is selected, he will not change easily. This person can lose, but he cannot admit defeat! Zuo Shuchang is a smart person, so he should understand what I mean?"

"Your Majesty is very kind, and it is hard to repay you!"

After hearing Bai Dong's words, Wei Yang burst into tears, his eyes were red, and he kowtowed repeatedly towards the northeast Liyang City. The emperor and his ministers of this era rarely performed this great gift. This move was enough to show his inner excitement.

"Honey..."

"I said don't call me Enxiang. Do you still want to call me like this? I'm so impatient!"

"Well... why did Bai Zuo say this?" Wei Yang was slightly stunned. He could see that Bai Dong was really unhappy, not because he was falsely implicated.

"I know that Zuo Shuchang's thoughts are not talented, and he has such a little reputation and power in Lao Qin. Is your kindness to repay me or ask for new kindness again? Why do I feel like the latter?"

Bai Dong glanced at Wei Yang, who had an unnatural expression, and said, "If you really think I am a kind person in your heart, you will not remember what I said to you. Whenever you attack the city, you must open your mind so that the defenders will not arouse the same hatred of the enemy and reduce our casualties. But how did you do it? In order not to make the Western family lose the net, you have placed 5,000 troops outside the city! Killing people to establish authority is the fastest way to establish reputation, but it has always been a wise man. Do you know why? Because 'the murderer will always kill him'! You use the method of killing to establish reputation for yourself today, and you will be killed by others in the same way in the future. I am afraid that the higher your achievements will be, the more miserable your encounters will be!"

"Zuo even said that Wei Yang was wrong."

"I hope you can really recognize your mistake..."

Wei Yang bowed as a courtesy, and seemed extremely respectful, but Bai Dong saw that the murderous aura in his eyes had not diminished; perhaps because Ying Quliang was too indulging in this person, and the political crisis had just passed. He was thinking about how to take revenge on the Western clan.

"Okay, you can rest for half a day before discussing a plan to break the city with General Che Ying and others. The emperor still regards you as the general. I am just supervising this battle, but I am not giving orders with the above general. You don't have to be so respectful."

Bai Dong shook his head secretly. The third brother wanted Wei Yang to be a chess piece, while Wei Yang wanted to use the third brother's power. This is the relationship between Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai. Even if he had the ability of Zhuge Kongming, he also said that there were so many mistakes. Who would not want to take the blame for the world and preside over the reform of Lao Qin?

From the moment Wei Yang appeared, he was destined to have a tragic ending. Should he be unable to save himself or worry, pay more attention to the young man from the West... A young man who was so young that he could actually win over the sky, which made Wei Yang and Jing Jian lose their grievances, which made him unable to help but be curious.

***

The smarter the person is, the more he will blame his failure on chance. This is how Wei Yang is. After Bai Dong brought Ying Quliang's attitude, he immediately became energetic, as if he had directly upgraded from a weak Xia insect to a strong and immortal Xiaoqiang Brother. The strength he showed when discussing the siege strategy made Che Ying and Jing Jian unable to interfere; Zi'an, let alone Zi'an, was too lazy to say more to Wei Yang now, and Wei Yang didn't want to pay attention to him, and would never forget the disdain and sarcasm of this guy on the corner of his mouth.

Except for Bai Dong, it seems that everyone has forgotten the magical young man of Xijia, or is too lazy to mention it. Now Wei Yang has nearly 40,000 troops under his command, and there are less than 20,000 slaves in Xijia City. Wei Yang believes that as long as he does not make any mistakes, it will be a matter of time before he can take down the Xijia City. At that time, he will personally capture the Xijia boy and chop off his head and present it to the king.

On the day when the army attacked the city, the haze that had been in Yongqian was finally pierced by the sun. It was a rare good weather. The Qin army rested for a few days and was very motivated. When the drumming marched, a drummer even beat the drum face too hard, but was not punished, but was rewarded instead. Because in Wei Yang's view, the breaking of the golden drum indicates the end of the battle, which also means "breaking the city with one drum."

The Qin soldiers with round shields formed a square formation, like huge old mountain turtles moving to the city. As the drum sounded rapidly, the shield square formation cracked from it, stretched out a ladder, and leaned against the city wall, the two copper hooks on the ladder head would tightly hook the wall bricks, making it difficult for the defenders to overturn it.

The war in this era has transformed from the "front competition" in the Spring and Autumn Period to the cruel battle of tens of thousands or tens of thousands of troops. Although the siege equipment is not as diverse as later generations, siege equipment such as crashes and ladders have developed to a relatively perfect level. And it is more important to cooperate. If there are no siege soldiers who come up with the ladder, no matter how many crashes come, they will be destroyed by the city. Now it has greatly reduced the strength of the defenders and does not even need to break the city gate. As long as the Qin army can stand firm at the top of the city, it may directly break the city. After all, Xijiajia City is not as good as the Meng family and may not withstand the long-term impact of the army.

This is the first time Bai Dong has witnessed the Qin army siege with his own eyes. Although it is still the Yingquliang era, this terrifying army that swept the world in the future has shown a fierce enough side. He saw some soldiers rushing to the top of the city with a few feather arrows on their shoulders, and some people were caught in the belly, and they pulled it out without thinking. Then they covered their exposed intestines and continued to attack the city. Some were shot in their eyes with an arrow, and pulled out their eyes and arrow shafts, with their faces bleeding but they couldn't retreat! What are the heroes in Romance novels? All the old Qin army are desperate heroes!

But even such heroic morale cannot conquer the Xi Family City.

Not to mention Bai Dong is an amateur, but even a general like Che Yingzi'an who has experienced many battles was stunned. It is not necessary to say that the Xijia soldiers were well-equipped and well-trained. But what can those slaves even if they are armed to the teeth? They cannot be well-trained soldiers. The last defeat of the Qin army was due to the appearance of Wei Yang underestimating the enemy and the mysterious Xijia boy. When they really came to the extremely cruel siege, these slaves would definitely collapse.

The early battles seemed to prove this. Under the suppression of the long-range "firepower" of the Qin army's absolute advantage, the counterattack of the Xijia Army seemed weak and powerless. The lethality of the bows and arrows shot into the sky was really limited, so the Qin army was progressing very smoothly. As soon as the first batch of soldiers were about to climb the city from the ladder!

But at this moment, there was no drum sound, no horn sound, and never saw the generals supervising the battle. Teams of soldiers suddenly appeared on the Xishi family city. They did not shout and kill the enemy like the Qin army soldiers, roaring and yelling, but just looked coldly at the Qin army that was climbing on the ladder. Some people were shot down by the Qin army's crossbow, but someone immediately added.

Too neat!

We can only describe the warriors of Xijia in neatness. There are no slaves among them, and they are the most elite professional warriors of Xijia! They are skeletons, arrows, and shot! Three movements are done in one go. Thousands of people are like one person!

"Buzz!"

Bai Dong really saw a "black cloud" falling from the city, and a black cloud flew past. The Sika soldiers who shot arrows immediately retreated. Another team of people staggered up and shot rapidly, and exchanged repeatedly. He truly achieved the black clouds pressing down on the top and the arrows were as rain.

The premise of this intensive shooting is to sacrifice a lot, and it will also cause terrifying psychological suppression on the enemy. Just like the array of European platoon infantry in the 19th century, in order to ensure the concentration of firepower, Napoleon's army will form a square array and advance at a slow pace. While making huge sacrifices, it will also cause a lot of damage to the enemy.

Faced with such terrifying intensive shooting, the log shields that the siege soldiers could carry could not cover their bodies at all, and were even directly shattered by dense bows and arrows! They all shouted and fell from the ladder. Even the Qin army under the city suffered heavy casualties, staring at the terrifying black clouds above. They couldn't figure out why this scene was the case. The Sika soldiers completely ignored the casualties. Is this going to fight for their entire life in the first round of siege?

Wei Yang was completely stupid. Even "professional" generals like Che Ying and Zi'an were stunned. The Qin army did not care about unification of orders, but they would not be willing to line up in dense queues to concentrate their strength like the West Karma soldiers. Although this could improve the attack power in the stage, the casualties they paid would be extremely terrifying!

"Ming Jin!"

Bai Dong slowly stood up from the chariot, no longer caring about who was the chief general. The Qin army was in chaos, and if it continued to fight, it would only cause greater casualties. Moreover, he had seen the trick. The "gun queuing method" used by the Xijia family seemed to cause great casualties. In fact, once the opponent was suppressed, the casualties would not be as huge as imagined. The Qin army was unprepared for this, and if it continued to fight, it would only suffer losses.

"Is it that Xijia boy? No one in this world will know how powerful the gun craftsmanship is, but he will never be a time traveler like me, otherwise he would not be nameless... If he had to rely on his own understanding, wouldn't this kid be a genius who has not been released for a century!"

Now Bai Dong is becoming more and more interested in this young man from the West.

Note: Ancient Chinese archers would also launch uniformly, but dense gun-style shooting like the late 18th and early 19th centuries was extremely rare, because from the surface, this would cause huge casualties.
