Chapter 398: One Battle to Fame, Wu Anjun
“Senior Bai Qi, you did not panic when facing an enemy force that outnumbered you by half.
You adopted the tactics of avoiding the strong and attacking the weak first and then the strong, and judged that the two main generals of Han and Wei seemed to be distracted.
So they first set up decoy troops in the front to attract the attention of the Han army, while you, Senior Bai Qi, led the main force to go around the rear of the coalition forces and directly attacked the unprepared Wei army.
In this battle, the 24-strong coalition force of Wei and Han was completely wiped out. Senior Bai Qi also became famous because of this battle and was promoted to the rank of National Commandant by King Zhaoxiang of Qin, a position only one level lower than that of the Prime Minister.
Senior Bai Qi, you are so amazing. Look, after the first battle, everyone knows your name, especially the two countries of Han and Wei. I am afraid they will tremble with fear when they hear your name, Senior Bai Qi," Li Wu laughed loudly. This tactic is also amazing.
Han Xin lowered his eyes and looked deeply at Bai Qi. He used to think that Bai Qi had no combat ability, but that was not the case. He also had tactics.
"You became famous in one battle. You are worthy of being the God of War, Senior Bai Qi. I would like to offer you a toast," Li Jing said, raising his glass, and Bai Qi also picked up the glass and drank.
In Li Jing's opinion, the military merit system of the Qin State at that time brought real benefits, and every soldier fought with his life.
If the enemy is killed, the benefits will go to the individual, and will not fall to the leader as in later dynasties, so who wouldn't fight hard?
The people from other countries in front of the sky curtain looked very unhappy. What did the little immortal mean by this? Could it be that they could not defeat Bai Qi?
Well, it is true that he cannot beat Bai Qi. Bai Qi is simply not a human being. Who can fight against him?
But they were not as the little immortal said, that they would tremble with fear when hearing Bai Qi's name. Ha, they were not that timid. At most, they would take a detour when facing Bai Qi.
The other six countries became more and more angry. Why did the Qin State not only have such a powerful Bai Qi, but also destroyed the six countries, unified them and became a single country? This made them very unhappy, and they even wanted to unite to deal with the Qin State.
But some of them could not unite, because many people heard from the immortals that Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng was a good emperor who would be remembered throughout history, and that unifying the six kingdoms was a great merit, that there would be no more divisions, and that there would be no more wars after unification, etc., so many people wanted to unify.
This made the people of the six countries panic. They could only appease the people in their own country first and develop slowly. Besides, there were other places as well, so it didn't necessarily mean a huge fight.

"In the next ten years or so, Han and Wei were completely defeated by you, Senior Bai Qi, and became vassals of Qin.
There is no one in Zhao or Chu who can fight against you, Senior Bai Qi.
In 279 BC, King Zhaoxiang of Qin sent troops to attack Chu again. Senior Bai Qi led tens of thousands of Qin troops to attack Chu from the direction of Wugu Pass.
They went straight into the heart of the Chu State, and the Chu State, which claimed to have a million armored soldiers, was simply unable to defeat them.
The Chu capital Ying was captured, and even the tomb of the Chu king was burned down. The Chu army was routed and retreated to Yangcheng one after another.
Later, Senior Bai Qi was conferred the title of Marquis of Wu'an and became famous throughout the world.
Wu'an is the title given to those who can safeguard the country and defeat the enemies in all dynasties. And since you, Senior Bai Qi, have been given this title, Wu'an has become the most evil title.
All those who received this title were outstanding people, but none of them had a good ending. "
Bai Qi was silent. He naturally knew from the little immortal that he would not have a good end. He wanted to ask why and what he had done wrong, but in the end he didn't ask anything. He would know the answer after the little immortal finished speaking.
The other Wu'an Juns in front of the sky curtain were panicked. Didn't they all have a good ending?
The comments were also discussing this issue and expressing regret.
What the immortal said was indeed not wrong. Whether it was Bai Qi committing suicide, Li Mu being executed because King Zhao believed in slander, Su Qin being assassinated in Qi, or Xiang Yan committing suicide after his defeat, there is no direct historical evidence to prove that Xiang Yan was named Wu'an Jun.

"Don't worry, Senior Bai Qi. Maybe this time will be different. Besides, the Qin State is still waiting for you to expand its territory. Go out and fight. The land outside is vast. Things like potatoes and sweet potatoes are all brought from the Americas. There are good things there." The potatoes and sweet potatoes alone are enough to make everyone want them. They have all tasted the benefits. No one thinks food is too much!
Bai Qi's eyes lit up. Yes, he was going to conquer a vast territory for the Qin State. There would be not only food but also gold, silver and other treasures in other places.
"Thank you for the reminder, little immortal."
"Senior Bai Qi, you don't have to be so polite. Let's eat our vegetables," Li Wu called out, turning the meat over. The roasted whole lamb was not very big and most of it had been eaten.
"Little Immortal, we all know what we eat, so don't worry."
"Yes, yes, we won't be polite to the little fairy."
Not only was the mutton delicious, but the other foods were also more delicious than they had ever been. They were thankful that they were military generals and generally had big appetites and could eat a lot.
Otherwise it would be a big loss. If you have a small stomach and get full after a few bites, then you won’t be able to enjoy the delicious food, which would be a pity. It would be even more uncomfortable to watch others eat.
"Then I will continue to talk about your deeds, Senior Bai Qi," Li Wu ate a few bites and stopped eating. It was too greasy and it was all meat.
The three of them nodded and continued to eat. Many people also came to roast whole lamb in front of the tent and ate while listening.
"In 262 BC, Senior Bai Qi faced his last and most magnificent battle, the Battle of Changping."
Bai Qi stopped eating and listened carefully. This was his last battle, and he really wanted to listen carefully.
Many people in the barrage are discussing the Battle of Changping. Some people think that Bai Qi is too cruel, as he killed more than 400,000 people alive. He is simply a devil. But some people think that Bai Qi did so, so even if he brought more than 400,000 surrendered people back to Qin, he would not be able to feed them. With so many people, who wouldn't want food? Qin's own food was not enough to feed the soldiers.
I can't afford to raise them, I can't collect them, and I can't release them. What else can I do but kill them?
So the barrage of comments started to argue, and many literati scolded Bai Qi, saying that Bai Qi was inhumane. Those were living lives, but he just killed them, and he killed so many people. Wouldn't Bai Qi have nightmares when he woke up in the middle of the night?
Isn’t he afraid that the 400,000 wronged souls will come looking for him?
Many generals spoke for Bai Qi, saying that they had never fought in a war and they knew nothing. If possible, why would General Bai Qi be willing to do such a thing? Although they were enemies, they were also human beings. Did Bai Qi want to kill so many people?
There are all kinds of fierce arguments in the barrage, and there is no winner or loser.

Hearing about the Battle of Changping, Han Xin and Li Jing both looked at Bai Qi and sighed. Bai Qi didn't know what had happened, but he felt his eyelids were twitching and felt that something bad was going to happen. Did he die in the Battle of Changping?
