early morning.
A group of knights, tired of their travels, rushed to the entrance of Qu Ping's army camp, threw away the reins in their hands, and strode into the camp——
"Report! Military report from Lord Mi Liang and General Wu Ben from the direction of Jianyang!"
The Chu soldiers who had just climbed out of their warm beds looked at each other with their hearts in their throats.
What was the outcome of the Battle of Jianyang?
Are we surrounded? How long will there be enough food?
Qu Ping and the generals were discussing matters. When they heard the report, the generals suddenly stood up!
Qu Ping coughed lightly to hide the nervousness in his heart: "Come quickly."
In any case, since it is a joint letter between Xiong Wuliang and Wu Bi, it means that Xiong Wuliang at least did not abandon the city and flee back to Chu.
But to be honest, with Jianyang's broken city wall, if you want to block the king's army for such a long time...
Enough!
But what if? What if Xiong Wuliang, that good-for-nothing second generation ancestor, really defends his position! ?
Qu Ping held his breath, as if waiting for the verdict.
The messenger took out the bamboo tube from his arms and handed it to Qu Ping respectfully. Qu Ping did not reach out to take it, but waved his hand: "Read it."
The messenger opened the letter and read word for word: "General Liangji, General Liangji, and General Zhuzhu, the commander-in-chief of the rear army——"
"On the third day of the fifth month, King Yao's army was defeated in Jianyang City. They fought fiercely all night, beheaded seven thousand people and killed three captains... King Yao fled!"
"Now we are leading the troops north to Langya. We are fighting a series of victories. General Zhu Guo knows about it."
One stone stirs up a thousand waves!
Qu Ping laughed loudly, and all the stress in his body was swept away!
Xiong Wuliang, what a good boy!
As expected of Qu Yangjun!
With six thousand Chu soldiers, relying on the broken city wall, they resisted King Yao's army for nearly ten days (actually seven days)!
Qu Ping didn't know that Xiong Wuliang's defensive battle was actually easy and comfortable. He relied entirely on the overwhelming number of arrows to suppress him. Gan Yaowang had no temper at all.
In Qu Ping's imagination, this must be a bloody battle to the last man!
He was able to fight and win!
After this battle, no one dared to regard Xiong Wuliang as an idle playboy!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Mi Fei, the leader of the left army, jumped up in shock!
How can it be!
Can that dandy good-for-nothing withstand the pressure of a 30,000-strong army?
They even teamed up with Wu Bi and achieved a great victory like beheading 7,000 people?
The moment Mi Fei heard that "the envoy from Jianyang is here", she was ready to scold Xiong Wuliang for humiliating the country and putting the army in danger!
He was ready to use the most vicious words to attack that damn boy Xiong Wuliang!
And the generals in the tent will definitely not refute him!
Mi Fei thought about these curse words for several days! We must seek to relieve our anger by scolding, to cite scriptures, to be well-founded, and to share the same hatred with the enemy...
As a result, when the words came to my lips, it turned out...
All the Chu generals in the tent were very happy, except Mi Feiru who was mourning his heir!
Qu Ping felt very happy.
Seeing Mi Fei's appearance, in a good mood, he couldn't help but joke -
"This is a military report, how can it be false?"
"If Mr. Zhongli doesn't believe it, how about you and I bet 10,000 gold?"
There was a buzz in the tent, filled with a happy atmosphere...
While the generals were laughing, they all looked at Mi Fei as if they were looking at something evil.
Grandma!
You kid, you don’t expect anything better, do you?
In order to retaliate against Qu Yangjun, you don’t even want the life of the 150,000 troops including yourself?
Are you satisfied if we all die here?
"It's not good! Zhonglijun passed out..."
Qu Ping smiled and waved his hand: "Come to the doctor quickly and take good care of Zuo Lingjun!"
The Zhuguo general suddenly stood up excitedly, drew his sword and shouted: "We have no worries! Immediately break up the camp and raise troops, and defeat [Kuiji] within five days!"
"I am going to cut off the fierce head and sacrifice it to the flag! I will capture King Qian and King Lie alive and offer them to the capital of Ying!"
All the generals shouted in unison: "I will obey the general's orders!"
The entire Chu army camp was soon filled with joy, and the officers and soldiers of the three armies expressed their admiration for Quyang Jun Xiong Wuliang.
…
Yushan.
Xiong Wuliang and Wu Ben rode in the same chariot, followed by generals Zhong Hua and Shaohu.
The scout unfolded the map: "Generals, this is the last barrier in front of Langya."
Xiong Wuliang glanced at the map, then raised his head and looked at it for a moment, and said: "The terrain of this mountain is dangerous, it is actually a natural hazard."
There are high mountains and dense forests on both sides, and there is only a narrow winding path no more than five feet wide.
I don’t know how big this mountainous area is, and whether the road ahead is getting wider or narrower.
No wonder King Qian and King Lie didn't try to beat King Yao to death, leaving King Yao a chance to hide his strength.
There is such a natural danger, but there are 10,000 soldiers and horses guarding it. Even a million-strong army is helpless.
It is estimated that King Qian and King Lie also felt that it was really unnecessary to forcefully attack a dangerous place like Yushan.
That's why he turned his gun, ignoring the already "destroyable" King Yao for the time being, and turned around to beat Yu Fujun severely.
Wu Ben laughed twice: "As the saying goes, the danger of mountains and rivers is not needed to strengthen a country - no matter how steep Yushan Mountain is, King Yao has already been defeated like a mountain, so where will the soldiers come from to stop my army, the King of Chu?"
"Send the order! Five people in a row, the army will pass quickly - pass Yushan tonight and break through Langya tomorrow!"
Xiong Wuliang didn't say anything more.
We have reached this point, and we must not stand still.
"Ahem," Zhong Hua from behind coughed lightly and advised softly: "Former general, you might as well use a hundred-man team to explore the way in front and clear the obstacles for our army."
Zhong Hua's sixth sense has always been accurate.
Although he knew that King Yao was unable to resist, he still had an ominous premonition as he stood at the mouth of the valley.
Wu Bi waved his hand nonchalantly: "Of King Yao's 30,000 horses, 7,000 of them were beheaded by our great Chu at the foot of Jianyang City."
"In the past few battles, we have made many gains."
"So far, King Yao's army has conservatively estimated to have lost 20,000 people. Counting the wounded soldiers who were broken up and unable to fight... King Yao's army only has at best two or three thousand soldiers who have lost their armor and abandoned their armor. Just wounded and exhausted soldiers."
Xiong Wuliang trembled.
Others don’t know Zhong Hua’s uncanny predictions, but he does!
If it hadn't been for Zhong Hua's miraculous premonition, he would have capsized in the sewer of the Shaohu Pirates!
Xiong Wuliang hurriedly said: "General Wu Ben, he is only one or two hours away."
"My army has been marching for a whole day and is indeed a little tired. It is better to rest for a while and then send a team of 100 people to explore the road ahead."
"If King Yao sets up some dirty tricks such as traps and ropes, it's better to eliminate them in advance so as not to delay the march of the army."
Wu Bi heard this and felt it made sense.
He pondered for a moment: "Forget it, let's just follow the wishes of the monarch - pass on my general order and cancel the previous order... The army will rest on the spot for an hour, and Li's 400-man team will go into the mountain to explore the road!"
A hundred-man general named Li Si stood up to accept the order, led his one hundred Chu soldiers, and explored forward along the mountain road——
