Wancheng.

In just a few decades, Wancheng had changed hands several times, from the important town in the northwest of Chu State to the later occupation by South Korea, and then Qin State recaptured Wancheng from South Korea, and then Chu State recovered it.

Now, after half a month of fierce siege, Wancheng has once again fallen into the hands of Qin.

The continuous wars over the years have greatly consumed the vitality of Wancheng. Now the city in front of us is undoubtedly much more depressed than the Wancheng in Bai Qi's memory.

But Bai Qi did not feel sad or moved about this. The Qin general just sat calmly in the familiar Wancheng Ling official residence and issued one order after another.

"Immediately take all the craftsmen who can be captured to the smelter and tell them to resume work as quickly as possible, otherwise this general will kill them and implicate the entire clan."

"Another order to order the whole city to report hiding craftsmen or arrest hiding craftsmen to come to the government office, they will be rewarded!"

"If you continue to send orders, Wancheng will implement military rations from today. All adults and young men will immediately enlist in the army to repair the city walls and new defense lines. Those who are dissatisfied will be punished."

"Sima Zhen, you will immediately lead a 10,000 army to Wuguan. Be sure to take down Wuguan and do not give Guanzhong Zhao army a chance to take advantage of the situation and go south. After you take down Wuguan, you will collect all the materials for the people within a radius of 200 miles to station Wuguan. No matter what means you use or how many people you will kill, what I want is a solid Wuguan. The stronger the better!"

"I will send orders to those counties that have not surrendered, and tell the people in the city that the Chu State is no longer able to come to rescue them again. If they still insist on resisting, all the officials and their families will be implicated after the city is broken, and the people will kill them in three days!"

A series of orders filled with murderous aura and decisiveness were issued from Bai Qi's mouth and were quickly released.

Bai Qi, who gave the order for half an hour, was also dry and dry. He coughed twice and cleared his throat. He slowly said to Fang Chengshou and Wancheng Ling, who had been kneeling in front of him for not knowing how long: "I heard that one of you is a member of the Zhao family and the other is a member of the Jing family. In this situation, you two can still work together to fight against the general's attack, which is quite interesting."

When the two Chu officials heard this, they couldn't help but look at each other, and both saw the helpless expression in each other's eyes.

In fact, it is not that these two officials have a good relationship or that they are very wise. It is because Wancheng is too far from Shouchun. When the incident broke out, it was the winter when the news was most delayed and slow. When these two top officials received the news, they were about to come to a life-and-death situation, Bai Qi had already rushed to Yingdu.

After the two of them became idle, they immediately realized and reached a consensus. At present, of course, the most important thing to unite to save their lives. Let him go if they are not a family.

Unfortunately, because the internal strife in Chu was too serious, Wancheng did not receive reinforcements from one army or another, so in the end the city was still not saved.

At this moment, the two highest officials were actually under a lot of pressure after listening to Bai Qi's orders. This guy was simply the kind of person who used human life as a mustard.

Fang Chengshou said tremblingly: "The officials and others are stupid and resisted the Qin soldiers, which angered the general. I also asked the general to give the officials a chance to serve the Qin and General Bai Qi."

On the other hand, Wancheng Ling immediately begged for mercy and was extremely sincere. For a moment, the hall was full of flattery, and it seemed like a flattery scene.

Bai Qi narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a long time, he spoke coldly: "It's not impossible to keep the lives of you two, but it depends on whether you are useful! Do you understand?"

The two Chu officials were naturally submissive and loyal.

Bai Qi didn't say nonsense and said to Wancheng Ling directly: "I ask you, how many days will it take if you want the Wancheng smelting workshop to start construction as soon as possible?"

Wancheng Ling hurriedly said: "Ten days, ten days are absolutely OK."

Bai Qi nodded and said, "Then I will give you six days. If you don't finish it for six days, you and your whole family will be sent to the blacksmith's workshop to be slave workers."

Wancheng Ling was so scared by Bai Qi's words that he trembled and repeatedly sweared that he would do it as scheduled.

Bai Qi turned his gaze to Fang Chengshou, who was standing aside: "The entire twenty-three cities of the Chu State are under your management. Now I want to take down the entire territory of Fangcheng as quickly as possible. Is there any way?"

Fang Chengshou was obviously a little embarrassed, but as Bai Qi's face gradually turned cold, Fang Chengshou felt uneasy in his heart. Finally, he couldn't help saying: "Go back to the general, there is indeed a way. The guard of Wuguan is an acquaintance of Xiaguan. His family is now in Wancheng. Xiaguan is very sure to persuade him to surrender if he writes a letter. As for other cities, Xiaguan can ask familiar guides to lead the way for the Qin army, and can also give the general information about the big families in the city. These families have a lot of friendship with Xiaguan, and many people should be able to be persuaded to cooperate with the Qin army inside and outside."

Bai Qi then smiled and said, "Very good, very good. In this way, your life will be temporarily saved."

After hearing Bai Qi's words, two officials of the Chu State immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Qi puts too much psychological pressure on people. When talking to Bai Qi, I always feel that if I can’t say a word well, I will lose my life.

However, before these two people could relax for a long time, Bai Qi continued to speak: "But, it is far from enough to be a Nanyang County alone. Since you have surrendered to the Qin Dynasty, you should make contributions to the Qin Dynasty! Otherwise, what's the use of Daqin to support you surrendered ministers?"

The two officials were stunned when they heard this, but now they are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are right.

Bai Qi looked calm and said, "You two are from Zhao and Jing, so I will give you one day. Before tomorrow dusk, you will write down all the useful information about Zhao, Jing and Chu State political situation! Remember, this general will compare the information written by you two. If anyone of you deliberately wrote something wrong, then this general will let the best torture officer of the Qin Dynasty torture you for a hundred days, and let you and your entire clan die in extreme pain and humiliation. Do you understand?"

In the end, Bai Qi said that the murderous intent on his face was as strong as the substance, which was daunting.

When the two Chu officials heard this, their faces looked like earth and lamented in their hearts.

Bai Qi's meaning was very obvious, it was entirely to completely transform them from a surrendered minister who was forced to surrender into a great traitor to the Chu State!

Bai Qi looked at the two hesitant officials of the Chu State and raised his tone slightly: "Why, do you have any objections?"

The murderous aura that came to his face awakened two officials of the Chu State, and they bowed repeatedly: "No, no objection, the official will start writing now, and start writing now!"

Ten days later, an urgent report was delivered to the table of the King of Qin in Chengdu, and suddenly made the King of Qin frown.
