Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism
Chapter 197
"General, what is that!"
On the city wall of Daliang City in Wei State, the soldiers looked at the ten-meter-high mechanical giant outside the city wall in horror, and made a sound of fear.
People will be afraid of unknown things, and in the past hundred years of war, no matter it is Neither the Mohist nor the public loser's machine beasts have ever appeared on the battlefield.
In other words, when Mozi was still around, the Mohist machine beasts helped some monarchs fight just battles.
However, the Mohist machine beasts were mainly used in In terms of defense, it is almost never used for offense.
In addition, the Mohist machine beasts are mainly small. Although they bring great effect on the battlefield, they do not give people a sense of fear of giants.
And the public loser It is different. Gongshujia's overbearing mechanism technique was invented and created for siege from the beginning.
However, in the era when Mohists and Gongshujia obtained the mechanism technique at the same time, Gongshujia's ancestors were defeated by the Mohist family.
Since then, Although the public losers are still famous, they have hardly appeared in front of other countries. They are only studied privately.
From birth of Mozi to the present for more than 200 years, it can be said that the public losers have been suppressed by the Mohists.
Even if the kings of various countries When they heard about the machine beasts, they would also recognize the Mohist machine beasts more than the public losers.
Until the end of the Warring States Period, when the Qin Dynasty survived for six generations, its national power became stronger and stronger.
However, the Mohists could not see this general trend of history, except for Except for a small number of Mohists who are willing to join the Qin State, the overall strength of the Mohist family has always been disapproval of the Qin State and believes that the Qin State is a tyrannical country.
On this point, in fact, all schools have the same understanding, such as Xunzi of Confucianism In fact, I think so.
It is true that Qin's foreign aggression has been too frequent, especially in the past few decades. Although countries have been at war with each other, Qin has participated in almost all large-scale wars. It was also during Under this situation, the Mohist family was somewhat behind the times. They made the mistake of not choosing the Qin State, but settled in a corner.
And Yan Dan interfered, leading the entire Mohist family to an even worse direction.
Instead, the public losers took advantage of it. At the critical moment, he joined the Qin State and gained the support of Qin State's national strength, so that Gongshujia's domineering machine skills were finally achieved.
And today in the main beam of Wei State, Gongshuqiu, the contemporary head of Gongshujia, is trying to make the world completely Seeing the power of the public loser's machine beast, it is definitely not something that the Mohist family can match.
From the development of the public loser, we can know that life is actually more about choice than effort.
How does the Mohist family make efforts? When it makes a mistake in choice, That is going against the general trend of history, and is the result of seeking death.
At Ying Wei's request, the huge public loser machine beast was made into a human form similar to Gundam.
Every time the machine beast takes a step forward, it emits a sound on the ground. There was a roaring sound.
The guard at the head of Daliang City swallowed his saliva when he saw this attacking machine beast. He had never seen this thing before.
However, as a military strategist, he knew very well that if morale was low at this time, then Daliang City really couldn't be defended.
He patrolled back and forth at the top of the city wall and shouted loudly:"Don't be afraid of this thing. If he can really break through the city, why has this thing never appeared before? What happened to Qin?" Don't tell me to bring it earlier"
"It must have a weakness, either it is inconvenient to move, or it cannot be used for a long time."
"We have been under siege by the Qin army for two months. At this time, there is still enough food and grass in the city, at least enough for us to use for a year."
"And our 400,000-strong army to the north is also crossing the Yellow River. As long as our 400,000-strong army returns to Daliang, everything will be fine."
"The king has also sent an envoy to the Chu State. The Chu State will surely understand the meaning of death and coldness, and will definitely send troops to rescue them."
"It has been two hundred years since the founding of our country Wei, and it will continue to exist for another two hundred years!"(To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
The general defending the city shouted back and forth on the top of the city wall to boost the morale of the soldiers.
Sure enough, with his encouragement, the morale of the entire Wei garrison was greatly boosted.
The main reason why Wei's defenders have such combat effectiveness, even stronger than that of Zhao, is that there is sufficient food and grass in the city.
Zhao State encountered a once-in-a-hundred-year drought, and there was a problem with Handan's food reserves. The Zhao soldiers, who were unrivaled in the world, had no morale at all, so King Zhao easily surrendered to Kaicheng.
But Daliang was different. As the transportation hub of the Central Plains, Daliang had a developed economy in the past and had a lot of grain reserves.
As long as the grain and grass were enough, the soldiers There is still food to eat, so in order to protect the country and their families in the city, they will naturally resist desperately.
This is one of the reasons, and the other reason is that Daliang is not an isolated city.
The 400,000 Wei troops in the north are still there. Although the army cannot compare with Qin in terms of combat effectiveness, it is definitely not easy to defeat.
The Chu State in the south has also prepared to send troops to rescue. If there is hope, especially since it still has the advantage of defending the city, the fighting will of the soldiers will Far beyond imagination.
Moreover, the King of Wei is not a fool. He has long opened the country's treasury and given rewards to all soldiers. These rewards alone are enough to motivate the soldiers. It can be said that the national power of Wei is actually quite strong, and there is no Guo Kai inside. The only problem with such people is that there is too little talent in the Wei State to find people who can lead the way. Under the gaze of the Wei soldiers, the huge public loser machine stepped forward and slammed its fist on the city wall..
The ground shook for a moment, causing the soldiers at the top of the city wall to squat on the ground in fear.
But they soon discovered that this terrifying machine beast did not cause much harm to the city wall, but only hit a few holes on the city wall. Cracks.
But you must know that this city wall is not an ordinary pile of masonry. The thickness and hardness are far beyond that of ordinary houses.[]
Such cracks are at most as powerful as a trebuchet, making it impossible to break through the city.
Seeing this, the morale of the Wei soldiers was greatly boosted. A trebuchet came from the city and hit the huge machine beast, causing the machine beast to stagger back two steps.
Seeing that the machine beast was not as scary as they imagined, the Wei soldiers were no longer afraid and cheered.
At the Qin army camp, when they saw that the machine beasts were not effective, Gong Shuqiu was not angry. Instead, he said with a smile:"It is wrong to directly use the machine beasts to attack the city wall."
"At this time, the entire Wei soldiers' attention was focused on the machine beast. General Wang, are your soldiers ready?"
Wang Ben laughed and said:"It has been prepared for a long time. At the request of Mr. Taiwei and Mr. Gongshu, I have five thousand of the most elite soldiers ready to go, and we are waiting for the machine beast to dig a way to the inner city of Wei. Authentic!"
In this ancient period, the foundation of the city wall could not be too deep. Wei Guo would never have thought that the machine beast that was attacking the city was just a false shot, and the machine beast that Gongshu really used to attack the city was actually an excavator!"
