The Rise of History’s Most Powerful Empire Chapter 317: When short and poor meet high, rich and handsome
Soon, when Qi’s 50,000 troops were sent to the front line, at a distance of about five hundred miles from Qi’s capital, they formally engaged with the coalition forwards, Qi’s rear, another 30,000 troops were formed. The army.
Qi's ability to mobilize war can be seen from this. He is too rich and has too many young and strong populations. It is no wonder that the nations are jealous and unite to fight.
Qi State, under Qufu City.
As an important frontier town of Qi, it is also the gate to the west. It is also the most prosperous city in the south and west of Qi. Qi has 30,000 troops stationed here.
Usually, they are heavily guarded, but now in wartime, it is even more like an enemy. Teams of soldiers are constantly patrolling the streets, and the city walls are full of soldiers standing by.
It is precisely because of such tight defense that this majestic city was able to grow at the forefront when many parts of the southwestern part of Qi were occupied, but it still stood firm in the occupied area of Qi. Contained the strength of many coalition forces.
During this period of time, refugees or deserters in the entire southwestern region continued to gather in Qufu City, slowly bringing news one after another, but none of them were good.
Among them, there was news that the Qi State 10,000 Vanguard Allied Forces were defeated by the Allied Forces, which added a layer of haze to the stormy and clouded city of Qufu.
Most of the troops who arrived in the coalition army have completely reached the territory of Qi. There have been more than 50,000 people in Qufu City, and a whole 150,000 army.
It can be said that in the entire southwest of Qi State, as long as there is a way or ability, the refugees who flee to Qufu City have gathered here.
Others either fled to the rear, or they lost their lives under the allied swordsmen, or became their captive slaves, driven by them, and humiliated, it is better to die.
Qufu was once the capital of Lu, who had fought with Qi for hundreds of years and had been loving and killing each other. Since the State of Lu was destroyed by the State of Qi, Qufu has been a major town in the western part of the State of Qi, and it has been firmly blocking the steps of all enemies trying to invade the State of Qi.
In the past countless wars, Qufu has accomplished its mission brilliantly. It perfectly resisted the invasion of one enemy after another. It can be said to be the most important town in the west.
For decades, various defensive measures have been continuously added, and the city walls have been continuously increased and thickened. Qufu is already a world-leading city. In the entire world, there are only twenty cities with his defensive power.
And most importantly, this Qufu city has accumulated enough equipment to arm 20,000 people, and enough food for one million people to use it for a year. It can be said that the war preparations are extremely abundant.
These abundant supplies are also the place where the soldiers and civilians of Qi State, who are like bereaved dogs in the city, can continue to settle down and resolutely resist here.
In their thoughts, they have enough ordnance, plus the original army, and with a little assembly, they can pull out an army of more than 30,000.
Even if they are all mobs, their combat power is too stubborn. On the frontal battlefield, against the elites of the countries outside the upper city, they will be able to defeat them in a single battle, like birds and beasts.
But the guards in the city do not have high demands on them, as long as they can stand on the city wall, shoot bows, shoot arrows, throw stones, and pour oil. These simple things, even if they are really scared to death, how can they be done!
As for the problem of their inability to fight, the guard said that there is no problem. This kind of problem will be solved soon after fighting a few more battles and killing more people.
The question is cruel, but the truth is very real!
This is what the current guard thinks. Although his face is solemn, he still has a relaxed color, which flashes from his eyes.
The reason for this is that news came from behind. Qi State’s 50,000 elite reinforcements have already fought with the forwards of the coalition forces. There have been several life-and-death battles, and the two sides will win or lose.
Even the reinforcements pushed the footsteps of the coalition back a few steps, and the coalition front was withdrawn fifty or sixty miles.
This kind of concession of the coalition forces, in the eyes of the defender, was seen as fear.
Inspired by this news, the guard is confident that he is no longer confused and fearful about the future, but full of hope.
The news of the guard passed to the people and the army in the city in a timely manner. They were frightened, and they also felt relieved, with a rare happy expression on their faces.
In their eyes, the enemies outside the city are still terrifying today, but they are only temporary. As Qi has more and more troops, these heinous invaders will definitely be driven out of Qi's territory.
Standing at the top of the city, watching the sunset that has gone to the west, although it is close to dusk, the guard looks like a sunrise rising from the east, full of vitality.
East of Qufu City, two hundred miles later, this is another important town in Qi State, Yangguan.
At this time, under the sun, how are the two armies lined up neatly facing each other, each with 10,000 armies, crowded under this narrow pass, looking at each other.
An army is dressed in purple armor, and under the sunlight, there is a noble purple. On the other side, the army is dressed in colorful ~ IndoMTL.com~ even many people are in tatters, not even a complete piece of clothing, just like a refugee.
And the soldiers in purple suits looked at their faces. Although many people felt nervous and scared, their faces were very young. They were young people in their twenties and thirties.
On the opposite side of the chaotic army, there are mostly teenagers or old men in their 40s and 50s. The old, the weak, the sick and the disabled are among them. There are very few true young adults, and some also serve as military officers.
The comparison of strength between the two sides is extremely disparity, and there is hardly any comparison.
This is the reinforcement of Qi and the vanguard of the United Nations.
Although there is a big difference in the strength of the two sides, the morale of the coalition forces is very high, and even looking at the enemy on the opposite side, there is a arrogance and contempt in the eye movements that cannot be ignored.
The coalition forces on the opposite side, although all of them are sturdy young men, and they wear strong armor and sharp weapons, but their hands are inadvertently trembling, and their eyes are constantly piercing. The shrinking, cold sweat kept falling.
"Kill!"
A loud voice sounded from the rear of both sides, and then the drums of war thunder and flags surged, and the soldiers of the two sides surged past like a tide.
The sixth year of Emperor Yuan, early May.
Qi's vanguard reinforcements and coalition vanguards fought against Yangguanxia, and 10,000 people on both sides, a total of 20,000 troops, fought to the death under Guankou.
On the 3rd, the Qi army won a tragic victory, slashing the 70,000 level of the coalition, and the rest of the coalition's vanguard collapsed. Qi Jun himself died of 50,000, injured 20,000, and his vitality was severely injured.
On the importance of a good chapter name. In other words, it seems that Zhang Jie's name has become more and more sophisticated in the past few days, and the author hereby praises himself.
