Daliang was surrounded, and they were worried about when they would be conquered.
However, the officials did not care. They believed that the Qin army would not be able to conquer it if they relied on a large number of defensive capabilities.
Daliang was now almost an isolated city, but it had a long and glorious history of resisting the enemy.
In the past, the Qin army had attacked the city countless times, but they could not make any progress. The Wei Kingdom had to thank the painstaking efforts of King Hui of Wei when he built Daliang.
Not only were the walls of Daliang City high and deep, but there was also a crisscrossing water network around it. It was a major supply artery and could effectively block the enemy's attacks. That was why the defensive system, which had been balanced for hundreds of years, was a headache for every army that had attacked Daliang City.
With the protection of the water net, the Qin army should not be able to take down Daliang.
Thus, the officials were more at ease, but the King of Wei was worried. He was afraid of his own life. Ying Zheng was not a kind man, and he would definitely kill him, the king of Wei Country.
Once Daliang was conquered, his life would come to an end.
……
"Your Majesty, the walls of Daliang City are sturdy and difficult to take down in a short period of time. I have a plan that should be able to take down Daliang City.”
"General Wang, tell me about it."
Ying Zheng was very interested in Wang Ben's plan. A family of generals had no sons without sons. This time, when they attacked the northern part of Chu State and the territory of Wei State, Wang Ben had displayed his extraordinary military talent, leading the army to conquer one city after another, expanding the territory of Great Qin once again.
" Daliang City is protected by a water net, which forms an insurmountable natural moat. It is the best defense. However, water and fire were merciless. Water could protect the pillars, but it could also destroy a large number of them. I believe that we can take control of the surrounding cities and the water network. This is equivalent to strangling Liang by the throat, making it impossible for them to advance or retreat.”
Ying Zheng nodded to himself and said," That's good. Then, we'll do as General Wang said. We'll take down the surrounding cities first."”
"Yes, I will!" Wang Ben was overjoyed, and he immediately mobilized his army to launch another attack.
This time, they were not attacking Daliang. Instead, they were attacking the surrounding cities. The higher-ups of Daliang were completely confused.
They had attacked Daliang several times earlier, so why did they stop this time? Could it be that he was preparing to fight elsewhere because he had failed several times in a row?
But very quickly, the next move of the State of Qin made them even more unable to see through.
"Your Majesty, the Qin army seems to have gone crazy. After taking down the surrounding cities, they actually built a canal. Clearly, the Qin army was unable to take Daliang, and the general had lost his mind.”
"Oh? Is that true?" The King of Wei was overjoyed. Did Daliang City really withstand the Qin army's attack? Even if Ying Zheng personally led the army, it didn't change anything?
"Absolutely!"
Daliang's general was all smiles. The Qin army's operation was a waste of manpower and resources, and it was a thankless effort.
Even if they occupied those cities and built canals, they could not change the situation.
Daliang City would never collapse!
In the blink of an eye, a month had passed, and Wang Ben had captured a large number of Wei Country citizens to build a canal to divert water.
Dozens of huge teams were moving in different positions. It was finally time for them to gather today.
There was a huge river, but no river water had appeared yet.
This river path led to Daliang, which was a little lower.
"The time has come. What a beautiful scene. Liang, enjoy it!”
Wang Ben came to the front of the river, and behind him was a criss-crossing water net, which was an important weapon to protect Liang.
There were also water nets outside the city, which played an important role.
"General Wang, let's begin.”
Ying Zheng shouted from the carriage. Wang Ben raised his hand to look at the sky and waved his hand, waving the flag of the vice-general beside him.
Bang! Bang!
Two loud sounds came from the front and the end of the river channel at the same time. A huge pit was blasted out of the river, and the water network that intersected with the river also collapsed at this moment.
Whoosh!
The river channel was opened up, and the water of Daliang flowed into the river. The sound of water splashing and the water droplets splashing were sparkling under the sunlight.
"Help Daliang build a water network? The fool of the Qin country really could not take it anymore.”
The general on the city wall almost burst out laughing when he saw this scene. After all this time, he was helping Daliang improve the water network. What an interesting Qin country, an interesting commander of the Qin army.
"Your Majesty, if the river channel is opened, Daliang will fall in less than three months!”
Wang Ben saw the river water of Daliang River converging in the middle of the river, so he came to Ying Zheng's carriage to report.
Shaosi Ming and Ling Yun sat together behind Ling Yun. Great Si Ming was still studying her Yin-Yang Hand Seal and seemed to be very free.
Only Shaosi Ming did his duty and didn't relax at all.
"Three months is about right. General Wang, if the King of Wei escapes, you must capture him!”
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
Wang Ben had no idea what the King of Wei would do, but he knew that the Emperor's intentions were beyond his imagination.
"Qin Wang, you have so much free time as an emperor.”
Great Si Ming said in a bored tone. Ying Zheng replied,""Then, what do you think is considered busy for a country's ruler?”
