Chapter 299 Don't provoke that man!

In the front line, Guangwu, Li, Yan, Guan, Zhongyang, Huayang and other cities, the Qin army began to advance across the line. Meng Ao led his main force to attack Zhongmu in Zhongyang, and the forefront army could see the city wall of Daliang. This was a huge encouragement to the Qin army. As long as they broke through the Zhongmu defense line, they could attack Daliang and directly destroyed Wei State. The Qin army's partial troops advanced from Guangwu, Huayang and other regions.

The partial army in Huayang attacked Xinzheng, which is also very close to Xinzheng, and South Korea is in danger.

The coalition forces used the favorable terrain of the local area to form defense lines in the mountains and completely resisted the attacks of the Qin people. Meng Ao continued to organize the attacks for more than half a month. Both Han and Wei seemed to have become hells on earth, with corpses everywhere, rivers were red, ruins and flames everywhere, and thick smoke rolled upwards, covering the sky and the sun. The sky between South Korea and Wei was so gloomy that there was no sunshine.

More and more soldiers were ready to attack and, under the command of the general, quickly rushed towards the enemy's city.

Nearly six hundred thousand troops gathered on this small land and began to kill each other.

Every moment, a soldier died in pain. Neither the Qin army nor the coalition forces could see any joy. They were completely numb and only knew to charge, climb the city, or defend under the command of the generals, and die with the enemies who climb the city... The children loved by the parents, the benefactors of the wives, and the fathers respected by the children, killed one parents' children after another, the benefactors of the wives, and the fathers of the children.

The general who guarded the place with 200,000 troops was Jingyang. With enough food, Jingyang could not defend himself and repelled Meng Ao's large-scale attacks and countless tentative attacks. Jingyang stood at the top of the city, held his spear, roared, and killed another enemy who climbed the city. Then he posed a banner and ordered the army to support those lines of defense that were about to collapse.

Jingyang did not let all the soldiers come to defend. He left a team of combat vehicles so that these highly mobile troops could go to support various places at any time... Meng Ao, who was responsible for the attack, was not feeling well. In just a short time, his soldiers died a large number of sacrifices... He had never seen a commander like Xinlingjun. On several occasions, his soldiers had already climbed the city wall in Xinzheng and Zhongmu at the same time, occupied half of the city, but were all killed in the end.

Meng Ao stood in the tent, looking at the map in front of him.

Zhang Tang stood aside. Among the many generals Meng Ao brought, there was only one Zhang Tang. Fortunately, he was not injured. The rest were injured while climbing the city and were still being treated. Even Meng Ao's son Meng Wu is now unconscious. He was stabbed by the army guarding the city and fell down from the city wall. Meng Ao also visited the injured soldiers and generals, but did not go to see his son.

"General, since the enemy has set up defense lines in these cities of Zhongmu, the rest of the places must be empty. Please let me take a side army north, surround this line of defense, and directly attack Daliang in the rear..." Meng Ao shook his head and said seriously: "The city of Daliang is tall. If you bring a small number of soldiers, you will not be able to capture it. If you bring the main army, our food and supplies are transported by water. How do you ensure the transportation of materials?"

Zhang Tang couldn't speak at all.

Meng Ao said seriously: "I heard that Xinling Jun divided his troops and let the partial troops go north... The person who led the team was probably Jingyang of Chu. He wanted to attack the jungle king and other cities... We should wait for reinforcements in the rear with peace of mind. The coalition forces defended for so many days and divided the troops again. His troops were definitely insufficient. As long as the reinforcements arrived, they would never be able to repel our army."

"Please lead the army to continue siege, and don't give the coalition a chance to rest... They can't hold on for many days."

"only!"

Meng Ao was right. If the two sides continued to confront each other, there would be absolutely no way for the coalition's supplies to continue, and Qin could exhaust them. Of course, Meng Ao still kept harassing and did not give the coalition time to rest. Meng Ao's army could attack in turn. Every time he sieges the city, soldiers could rest. But the coalition could not do it. They had to defend with all their strength, otherwise the city might be taken away. As long as Meng Ao took away a city, his defense line would be torn open.

At this time, Xinlingjun had already crossed the river and quickly passed the Ye Wang, but Wu Sui did not attack these cities. The sudden attack of the coalition forces caused the Qin people here to be frightened. On the one hand, they summoned the people to defend the city, and on the other hand, they hurriedly reported the whereabouts of the coalition forces. Xinlingjun didn't even look at these cities. He just kept urging his master to advance frantically towards the northwest.

The coalition troops did not know the purpose of Xinlingjun, nor did they know why they came here. They just kept moving forward, moving forward, and moving forward desperately. They looked at the Xinlingjun's flag in the distance and followed the flag. Pang Gong and Ju Xing, who were accompanying him, were also sitting in the carriage one after another, following Xinlingjun. Xinlingjun did not want to bring these two old men with him.

After all, he was going to run a long distance, and he was worried that these two old men would not be able to withstand such a running trip.

But they all asked themselves to follow and promised Xinlingjun that they would never drag down the speed of the march. Xinlingjun agreed helplessly. Pang Gong looked at the opera behind him from time to time. The two met when they were young. Because of their differences in political views and concepts, they eventually parted ways... The two had not met for more than 40 years. Pang Gong was a little unrecognizable to his old friend.

When night came, Xinling Jun finally ordered the entire army to rest and prepare for passing the mountain road.

But Mr. Pang went to find Ju Xin tremblingly.

Ju Xin was patrolling the camp of Yan State. When he returned to his base, he saw Pang Gong waiting for him in front of the bonfire. Ju Xin frowned and walked to his side. Pang Gong stood up with a smile, leaned over to salute him, and then asked, "Do you still recognize me?" Ju Xin looked at him and said, "It's been more than 40 years, and you haven't changed at all. Of course I know you."

"In the beginning, you humiliated me in front of everyone...How could I forget such a great kindness?"

Pang Gong was stunned and smiled helplessly. The two sat down. Pang Gong then said, "We were all young at that time... We were all quarreled because of some disputes. It was a bit funny when I think about it like this... There were only two of us left among those people at that time." Ju Xin shook his head and said, "You are wrong. There are still many people of the same age as me, and you are probably the only one left."

"No, isn't there another Xunzi?"

"Xunzi?? Your first son is three years older than him!"

Pang Gong suddenly realized and nodded.

The two talked about the past years again, recalling the past... As they chatted, Ju Xin suddenly asked, "Are you still sticking to your absurd truths?" Pang Gong laughed and said, "Yes, what about you? Are you also sticking to your wrong truths?" Suddenly, the two argued, and the generals sitting around looked at the two old men in surprise and blushed in a quarrel.

In the end, Mr. Pang left here angrily and ignored this old friend.

Not long after Mr. Pang returned to his station, Xinling Jun came here.

"Pang Gong..."

Xinling Jun sat aside and said with some concern: "I heard that you have had some conflicts with General Xin of Yan State's drama. Now the Qin people are our troubles. Please don't..." Pang Gong laughed and said: "Don't worry, we two have been friends for many years, but they have disagreements in their ideas and often quarrel... He is not a mediocre person, and this will not affect the situation of the war. If I am besieged, he will definitely come to rescue him."

"What if he was besieged?"

"Then I will reward the army..."

"Hahaha~~", Xinlingjun laughed, and he drank some more wine, then asked curiously: "Are you friends with him for many years?"

"Yes, he is also a Zhao person... A long time ago, probably when your father had not served as King of Wei, we wandered around Handan all day long... talking about major events in the world..."

"Then why do you quarrel?"

Pang Gong thought for a moment before he said, "At that time, we were not famous. King Zhao was unwilling to appoint us. He wanted to leave Zhao State, but I was unwilling to leave. I was born in Zhao State, so I must serve Zhao State. But he said that ministers should serve those who value themselves and repay the king's kindness... He went to Yan State and was valued. Although he was dismissed later... But now he is still thinking about repaying the favor of King Yan's former promotion."

"I was in Zhao State until I was very old and I got the opportunity to serve the land that gave birth to me... Everything I did was not to repay the king, nor to my own fame. I just wanted to do something for my home... to protect my fellow villagers..." Pang Gong said with a smile.

Xinlingjun fell silent.

Pang Gong then asked, "Where are you?"

Xinlingjun smiled bitterly, he took another sip of wine, and he shook his head and said, "I don't know... At the beginning, I also wanted to make my country stronger... I also wanted to make my brother the overlords of various countries..." Xinlingjun laughed. He stopped talking, but just drank wine and said to Pang Gong: "Go to rest early, we will continue to rush to the next day..."
