Bai Qi vs Man Chong

Bai Qi defeated the allied forces of Wei and Han at Yique, killing 240,000 enemy troops. This victory eliminated the threat from these states and secured Qin's eastern borders.

Bai Qi led a Qin campaign against Chu, capturing the capital Ying. This forced the Chu court to relocate eastward, significantly weakening Chu and expanding Qin's territory in the south.

Bai Qi commanded the Qin army against Zhao at Changping. After a prolonged siege, he defeated the Zhao forces and allegedly ordered the execution of 400,000 surrendered Zhao soldiers. This massacre crippled Zhao's military power.

King Zhaoxiang of Qin ordered Bai Qi to commit suicide after Bai Qi refused to lead a campaign against Handan. Bai Qi's death removed a key general, but did not halt Qin's expansion.

Man Chong served as a strategist during the first defense of Hefei against Sun Quan. He advised the garrison commander to strengthen fortifications and use fire attacks, which helped repel the Wu invasion.

Man Chong participated in the defense of Ruxu against Sun Quan's fleet. He proposed using fire ships to break the Wu naval formation, but the plan was not fully executed. The battle ended in a stalemate.

Man Chong was appointed Governor of Hefei and tasked with fortifying the city against Wu. He oversaw the construction of new walls and defensive structures, making Hefei a formidable stronghold.

Man Chong successfully defended Hefei against a major Wu invasion led by Sun Quan. He used a combination of archery and sorties to inflict heavy casualties, forcing Sun Quan to retreat after a month-long siege.

Man Chong again defended Hefei against Sun Quan's invasion. He repelled multiple assaults and maintained the city's defenses until Wu forces withdrew due to supply shortages and the death of Sun Quan's ally Zhuge Liang.
