In Chengdu County, the situation is indeed as critical as Changsun Wuji judged. The 50,000-strong garrison fought for two days. At this time, only more than 10,000 people were left. Of these more than 10,000 people, half of them were with Injured, he stood tenaciously on the city wall to block the enemy's attack.
If these half-injured soldiers retreat, Chengdu County will be captured in an instant. Duan Xuanzhi has already exhausted everything and is really running out of ammunition and food.
As Changsun Wuji said, Chengdu County may not be able to hold on for half an hour at most and will be breached.
Standing on the tower, Duan Xuanzhi held a sword in his hand and kept shouting to resist! Reinforcements have arrived.
These words did have an effect. At least they improved the morale of the generals a lot and gave them hope.
The facts were indeed as Duan Xuanzhi said. He had already seen a commotion at the rear of Changsun Wuji's army on the tower.
What he saw was Cheng Yaojin's cavalry attacking Changsun Wuji's army.
It's no wonder that Changsun Wuji was so angry that it was tantamount to destroying his military morale.
Surrounding Chengdu County, it can be said that wars are everywhere now. Not only are the strong men in the Xiantian Realm fighting against each other, but the two armies are also fighting fiercely.
Attacking the city and blocking reinforcements made Changsun Wuji very anxious.
Judging from the messages sent back one after another, everything seemed to be somewhat out of his control.
According to Changsun Wuji's idea, as long as he blocked Luo Zhang for two days, Chengdu County would be able to capture it, but who knew that he would be blocked by a breakthrough in just one day, causing him to be in a dilemma now.
Before Chengdu County was captured, Luo Zhang's army had already arrived. Although he had an army of 300,000, he suffered considerable losses in the two days of siege.
Now there are only more than 200,000 troops, and hundreds of thousands of troops have been mobilized to attack the city, so there are only 70,000 to 80,000 troops to stop Luo Zhang.
And among these 70,000 to 80,000 people, there are still 30,000 people fighting with Cheng Yaojin.
When Luo Zhang came with his army to cover him up, how could the 40,000 to 50,000 people blocking him stop Luo Zhang.
It was easy to kill Luo Zhang, but he was so pissed that he was killed.
The defeat here affected the entire battle situation. Not only did the army that blocked Cheng Yaojin flee backwards, it also made the soldiers who besieged Chengdu County unstable.
Reinforcements have arrived and have defeated the troops blocking the reinforcements. They continue to besiege, but they will be surrounded by Luo Zhang's army.
Changsun Wuji was also furious when faced with such a difficult problem, but it was useless to be furious anymore. It was not like he could save the situation with just a few curse words.
With no other choice, Changsun Wuji had to mobilize another 50,000 people from the troops besieging Chengdu County to stop Luo Zhang's army.
However, these 50,000 people are simply a drop in the bucket compared to Luo Zhang's 100,000 people.
Coupled with the two-pronged attack of Luo Zhang's artillery and Mu Qiaoda, Luo Zhang was no match for Luo Zhang. Luo Zhang almost beat the shit out of the 50,000 men and horses who were blocking the rescue.
"Master, the situation is not good. If we continue, we may be in danger!" The elder advised Changsun Wuji with a worried look on his face.
"It's almost over. Chengdu County is about to break. Just hold on for a little longer, hold on for a little longer!!!" Changsun Wuji said with a ferocious expression.
But when the 50,000 troops he mobilized were defeated by Luo Zhang, Changsun Wuji finally couldn't bear it anymore. He knew that the situation was now over.
From the fact that the blocking channel was breached, he actually knew in his heart that Chengdu County could not be captured.
He placed all his hopes on the two elders of Qingcheng, but who knew that there was no news about the two elders of Qingcheng when they left, and there is still no news until now. This leaves Changsun Wuji without any way to check Luo Zhang.
None of the two methods I thought of before have been implemented now.
"Master, let's withdraw first. We'll leave the green hills behind. We're not afraid of running out of firewood. We'll return to Fuling. We'll consider the long term. If we lose too much here and Luo Zhang comes after us, we're afraid we won't even be able to defend Fuling!" The great elder said again. persuaded.
Changsun Wuji glanced at Chengdu County unwillingly, gritted his teeth and ordered: "Withdraw the troops from Fuling!"
After the order was issued, the great elder breathed a sigh of relief. If they continued to resist, all their soldiers would really stay here.
With the current withdrawal of troops, 150,000 people can still be saved. With these 150,000 troops, they can still compete with Luo Zhang.
