Daqin Engineering Corps

This is beyond doubt.

The Qin army is the army of the Central Plains, and its main target is the Central Plains, and its production level and productivity are much higher than those of the surrounding barbarians... So Qin hopes that they will not come to harass and plunder, which is why Qin built the Great Wall.

Qin is like this, Zhao is like this, and Yan is like this.

Even Qin often did business with the Yue family because of the need for cattle, sheep and horses, and intermarriages were not uncommon.

This is also one of the reasons why Qin was called "Qin Barbarian" by the countries in the Central Plains. Qin was greatly influenced by the customs of the surrounding ethnic minorities, so the folk customs were tough and aggressive.

The Xiongnu basically did not have these exchanges. Their needs were very simple, that is, to rob cattle, sheep, property, women...

Therefore, the ordinary people of the Yuezhi even miss the days when they were neighbors with Qin.

However, the memory of ordinary people does not mean that the same is true for the dignitaries of the Yue family.

As I said before, the people of the Yuezhi would often sneak into the peasants who changed from nomadic life to arable land in Qin State... This is actually a change of status, from slaves to free people.

People like this, but it hurts the interests of dignitaries.

If every slave went to Qin State to become a free man and became a farmer, how could the Yuezhi still be in trouble?

So this will shake the royal power and even cause the entire country to collapse and be assimilated...

Therefore, starting from the interests of the Yuezhi King and the Yuezhi nobles, the Yuezhi could only retreat westward and escape from the neighbor of Qin State.

Now that the Yuezhi King is dead, and the Yuezhi nobles are gone, what choice do the Yuezhi soldiers, who are ordinary people of the Yuezhi, have?

Escape?

Where can the world escape to?

Just when he couldn't make up his mind, Qiu waited for a group of generals from the Yue family to stand up and say:

"The Qin Army treats the prisoners preferentially, so come down with me!"

So the Yueshi soldiers put down their weapons one after another to welcome the Qin army up the mountain.

Some of the military officers were all against it.

The military officers are often the nobles of the Yue family, and they are nobles with many slaves. Of course, they know what will be lost once the Qin Kingdom is surrendered.

Yet their objections were meaningless.

Not only is it meaningless, but it also brings them a fatal disaster.

The soldiers discussed, if this continues, they will only die in vain on the Sanwei Mountain, it would be better...

Then the officer's head was sent to Qin Jun.

Chapter 4 and Four

Xunyun, the right virtuous king of the Xiongnu, was shocked when he heard the news that the Yueshi soldiers had surrendered, and asked the spies with an unbelievable expression:

"Is this true?"

"We are already in sight of victory, why did Yuezhi surrender at this time?"

The spy replied:

"It is said that the Qin Army dispatched a surprise army from the Qilian Mountains in the south to Shazhou, unexpectedly killed King Yuezhi and took control of Shazhou."

"Sanwei Mountain lost the rear camp and King Yuezhi was killed, so most of the unintentional battles surrendered to the Qin army!"

"Only thousands of remnants fled westward and disappeared."

Xun Xun was stunned for a long time and didn't come back to his senses.

After a long time, he sighed and shook his head:

"I wonder why Shen Bing knew that this battle would be defeated, but he didn't insist on it. It turned out that there was another way!"

"A surprise attack on Shazhou...this is what Shen Bing said is the magic weapon for defeating the enemy!"

"It's a pity that I was deceived by this soldier, and said that the magic weapon is something that can capture Sanwei Mountain."

"This Shen Bing is really a strange person!"

The Ministry will remind on the side:

"Youxian King, then our army will attack the Suzhou part..."

Only then did Xun Yun react, and hastily ordered:

"Withdraw, order him to withdraw immediately!"

The general responded and hurried to give the order.

You must know that this Shazhou is the exit of the Hexi Corridor. The reason why the Xiongnu dared to separate [-] cavalry troops into the Hexi Corridor to attack Suzhou was because the main force of the Qin army had been restrained in Sanwei Mountain and could not move.

Even when the Xiongnu attacked Suzhou, they would encircle the Qin army on three sides:

To the north and east are the Xiongnu, to the west is the Sanwei Mountain where the Yueshi is stationed, and to the south is the Qilian Mountain.

This is almost to surround the Qin army.

However, at this time, the Qin army ate Sanwei Mountain and even occupied Shazhou... The Qin army, who was surrounded and originally a dead end, did it in an instant.

This is a bit like playing Go: the work of the Qin army means that the [-] cavalry army of the Huns became a lone army.

Once the Qin army gained a firm foothold and blocked the exit of the Hexi Corridor, it was the Xiongnu's [-] cavalry that would be surrounded.

But fortunately, the [-] cavalry hadn't penetrated into the corridor or launched an attack, otherwise it might be too late to withdraw now.

On the other hand, Shen Bing didn't care about encircling and suppressing the Xiongnu. He was leading troops into Shazhou at this time.

This is not to say that Shen Bing did not know the lone Xiongnu army, but that Shazhou was not stable at this time and the Qin army was short of supplies.

Shen Bing entered the city wearing armor and riding a horse surrounded by personal guards.

The so-called city is actually a tent area surrounded by wooden fences. There are scattered wooden houses and tents scattered in it, and the south side was burned to pieces... The south side was the direction Wang Ben and others attacked last night. Shen Bing led the army from East into the city.

Before the attack, Shen Bing also asked the soldiers to freshen up in the Dangquan River, and ordered the soldiers to prepare their equipment, and the disabled soldiers stayed in the tent area a few miles outside the city to recuperate.

To put it in a bad way, this is "image engineering".

In particular, preventing wounded soldiers from entering the city is a bit like "crossing the river and tearing down bridges" and "disrespecting wounded soldiers".

But nothing can be generalized. Sometimes "image project" is still necessary, especially when there are [-] Xiongnu in Xinxiasha Prefecture at the same time.

You must know the weakness of the Qin army... To be precise, the weakness of the Qin army in the Western Regions is its weak force.

But Shen Bing used facts to prove that even if the force is weak, the strength is not weak.

Just like when they faced the [-] Huns and [-] Yuezhi army with a total of less than [-] troops, they could easily defeat the Yuezhi and take Shazhou.

This is a slap in the face for the Huns.

As soon as the Yuezhi formed an alliance with the Huns, they were destroyed by the Qin army, and they were still destroyed under the eyes of the Huns.

Even the Huns were pushed to the position of "abandoning their allies"... The Huns did not actually participate in this battle throughout the whole process. If they participated, they just shouted and cheered beside them, causing psychological pressure on the Qin army.

Shen Bing wanted to show the people of the Yue clan, and at the same time let the people of the Western Regions understand that there would be no good end to the alliance with the Huns against the Qin army.

So it is a good opportunity to enter Shazhou.

If the Qin army entered Shazhou with scarred and disorganized troops, the people of Yuezhi would think:

"The Qin army is nothing more than that. After defeating the Yuezhi, half of his life is left."

"If the Xiongnu take the opportunity to attack again at this time... how can the Qin army survive?"

So not only the Yuezhi, but also countries in the Western Regions will fall to the Xiongnu one after another.

But if the Qin army is brightly armored and full of energy, it will be a deterrent to the Yuezhi and even the countries in the Western Regions:

"The Qin army defeated the Yue clan with [-] troops, and it can still maintain such a military capacity, which is enough to show that it still has spare strength."

"If Qin's army still has enough power and they get the green land of Shazhou and 40 people, wouldn't it be like a tiger with wings added?"

Therefore, the power balance between the Qin army and the Xiongnu is better or worse, and all countries must carefully weigh it.

This is why Shen Bing asked all the cavalry to wear armor and ride horses, while the Hanoi soldiers marched into Shazhou in a murderous formation with crossbows and arrows.

Shen Bing, who was riding on a horse, looked down and saw the awe-inspiring eyes of the people around him, and knew that his goal had been achieved.

To be honest, this battle was really not easy.

Shen Bing first used the idea of ​​"special operations" before and sent an ancient mixed "special forces" to surprise Shazhou, and now he has to use psychological warfare to weigh the countries of the Western Regions and the Huns.

And it's likely just the beginning.

The team stopped in front of King Yuezhi's sweat tent, which was a tent with patterns and crests characteristic of the Western Regions. It was very large, at least seven or eight times larger than ordinary tents, and surrounded by a circle of small tents. The tent should be used by King Yuezhi's personal guards to protect the king around.

Shen Bing got off his horse, but didn't go in.

Wang Ben who was waiting in front of the door could not help but look puzzled, and stepped forward and said:

"General, the subordinates of the tent have been cleaned up..."

Shen Bing shook his head, then cupped his hands behind Qiu Jiu and said:

"General Qiu, King Yuezhi died unfortunately. The Yueshi cannot be without a king for a day."

"For the sake of the Yuezhi people, Shen Bing thinks that General Qiu is reluctant to become the Yuezhi king."

"I don't know what General Qiu thinks?"

Everyone was stunned, including Qiu Jiu.

To be exact, Qiu was the one who was the most surprised. He thought he had heard it wrong and asked him to translate it again.

After Jiang said it again, Qiu Jiu still didn't believe it. He asked puzzledly:

"General Shen's intention is to give up King Yuezhi?"

Shen Bing replied:

"Shen Bing has never been the king of the Yue clan, and has no intention of being the king of the Yue clan, so how can he say 'give up'?"

Wang Ben just wanted to say something, but Shen Bing stopped him with a look.

Qiu looked around, then nodded and said:

"Since this is the case, Qiu would be more respectful than obedient!"

Ren was flexible, and immediately led a group of guards and shouted:

"Congratulations to King Yueshi!"

"Congratulations to King Yueshi!"

……

Chapter 4 The Right to Education

Shen Bing lived in a small tent next to King Yuezhi.

This is nothing to Shen Bing. They are all tents anyway, and they are served by people anyway. What is the difference between bigger and smaller?

On the contrary, Qiu felt sorry, and immediately ordered his servants to prepare a bigger tent for Shen Bing, and at the same time brought a lot of wine and food...

The food was nothing more than roast lamb, but the wine made Shen Bing very comfortable.

It is said that wine originated in the Transcaucasus region, and then spread to Central Asia and then to the Western Regions.

Since the western region is rich in grapes, it has the habit of brewing.

This wine is much better than the Hun wine from the Central Plains. Shen Bing couldn't resist drinking a few more glasses for a while, and then took a few mouthfuls of the roast leg of lamb... While enjoying the fragrance of the mouth and the corners of his mouth with satisfaction The oil juice, while sighing in my heart that the gods are nothing more than that.

At this time, Wang Ben hurried into the tent, with a look of anger on his face, and said:

"General, I fought for this Shazhou with my life."

"It's fine if you don't become the Yuezhi king, how can you return the Yuezhi king to the Yuezhi people..."

"If this Qiu is reversed one day, wouldn't it be a waste of all my hard work?"

Shen Bing knew that Wang Ben would ask this question a long time ago. If Shen Bing hadn't stopped him, Wang Ben would have jumped out to object when Qiu Jiu was crowned king.

Shen Bing didn't answer, he motioned for Wang Ben to sit down opposite him, poured him a glass of wine, and asked:
