In Sima Cuo's expectant eyes, King Huai of Chu suddenly smiled with great happiness——
"Sima Cuo, although my reaction is slow, my heart is clear - although Wu Liang has many soldiers and few generals, you are still afraid of him after all."
"Stop wasting your efforts!"
"Back then, I was so passionate that I launched an army in anger, causing Quyang Lord Xiong Wei to die fighting against Qin... Today I was captured by mistake, because God is not with me - if I use the only son of my brother Wang again, I can exchange it with you and other Qin people for a while..." Gou An...is this the behavior of an overlord?"
"The last chance you gave me, my answer is still - refuse!"
"If you want to fight, then fight to the end!"
No matter how deep Sima was in the city, he couldn't hold back at this moment.
The Great Qin Captain suddenly stood up with an angry look on his face!
King Huai of Chu shook his fat head and smiled nonchalantly: "I am the overlord of Chu, how can I be coerced by the people of Qin?"
"Fight! Fight to the end, Wu Liang will definitely save me!"
Sima Cuo's face was gloomy, and after a moment, he pulled out the sword from his waist.
I saw Sima Cuo flick his wrist, and the sword was placed on the chubby neck of King Huai of Chu!
It can be used as the sword of the captain of the Qin Kingdom. You can imagine how sharp this sword is.
The sword edge was dangerously pressed against his throat. If Sima Cuo applied just a little more force, King Chu's neck would bleed!
Meng Xixiang, the general who was outside the door, quickly broke in and shouted urgently: "Guo Lieutenant, no!"
"Think twice!"
If he really killed King Chu, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Even though the Chu State has been defeated at this moment, if Sima mistakenly kills the King of Chu, although there is no need to worry about the revenge of the weak Chu State - the impact will be too bad.
Even if he is a hostile country, he is still a king!
Killing the king with his ministers is a grave crime!
Even if the minister of Qin killed the king of Chu, he was still treasonous!
What's more, the King of Chu is still related to the Queen Mother Mi and the King of Qin...
Even if the domestic impact of Qin is not considered, all countries in the world will not stand by and watch the brutal death of King Chu.
At a lighter level, it may be joint condemnation or diplomatic sanctions.
Seriously, it is very likely to trigger various countries to join forces to attack Qin!
No one dares to assess what the consequences will be.
Sima Cuo's face was as heavy as water, and he actually added a little more force to his hand - the delicate skin was scratched, and the sword edge drew a thin blood line on King Chu Huai's neck, and a few drops of blood flowed out.
"Your Majesty, do you really think Sima Cuo doesn't dare to kill you?"
"Who gave you the courage? Because the Queen Mother of Qin is related to you?"
"In the current war, state affairs are the most important thing - the Queen Mother is a discerning person and will not punish me!"
"As for the reactions of various countries, I, Lao Qin, are not afraid! In the worst case, my captain will lead his troops to fight another Hangu Pass defense battle!"
It is said that King Huai of Chu has been a top noble since he was born. He has been away from the battlefield since he was a child.
When have you seen this formation?
I touched it subconsciously and felt blood on my hand...I almost screamed!
Sima Cuo looked at the pale King Huai of Chu and smiled with satisfaction.
This obese man is so tough just because he is the King of Chu.
The captain of the country showed his sword, and he had to be subdued!
As long as the King of Chu writes a letter and sends it to Yingdu - even if Xiong Wuliang disagrees, the princes and ministers in the Chu Kingdom will put pressure on Xiong Wuliang.
By then, Xiong Wuliang will be in dire straits.
Even if he couldn't be replaced in the Qin camp in the end, he would still be tired of dealing with domestic pressure and unable to unite all the remaining forces of Chu to resist Qin.
As long as the King of Chu is willing to write this letter - this is an unsolvable conspiracy!
"King Chu, please write quickly." Sima Cuo smiled slightly.
King Chu Huai shivered with fear, staring down at the sword in Sima Cuo's hand, almost cross-eyed... In the end, he still said stubbornly: "No, don't write it!"
Under Sima Cuo's unbelievable gaze, King Chu Huai simply closed his eyes: "Qu Yanghou is not only the only son of the king's brother...but also the future pillar and hope of Chu!"
"You go ahead and kill him, Wu Liang will take revenge on me."
Sima Cuo was so angry that his mouth was full of smoke...
In the end, he could only sheath the sword angrily and walk away.
…
Xiong Wuliang led the troops out of the mountain, bringing a huge sense of crisis to Sima Cuo.
Even if the Chu general Wu Ben led 200,000 troops to defend the capital of Ying, he never made Sima Cuo so nervous!
The messenger cavalry galloped on the road, conveying Sima Cuo's order to the thousands-man teams scattered throughout the Chu Kingdom - stop all actions and move closer to the Chinese army as soon as possible!
The Marquis of Quyang, Xiong Wuliang, stopped the massacre of the Qin, Wei, and Han coalition forces on the land of Chu before he had a head-on confrontation with Sima Cuo...
Its great power is evident!
At this moment, Xiong Wuliang was sitting on the bronze chariot, surrounded by Le Yi, Zhao Hua and Shao Hu.
Zhao Hua was pointing at the map and analyzing the current situation——
"Chu's territory is too large. The more the combined forces of Qin, Wei and South Korea advance, the more unsustainable the supply line will be."
"As a result, the enemy's offensive will inevitably weaken."
"Facing the threat from Yan State on the Yan-Qi border, our ally Qi State can still protect itself, but as for supporting Chu... we can't count on it."
"If we want to repel the Qin, Wei, and Han coalition forces, we still have to rely on ourselves as Chu people!"
Zhao Hua paused, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes.
There are simply too many enemies.
With few soldiers and few generals on our side... we can only fight with all our strength!
Fortunately, our commander here is the invincible Marquis Quyang...
"Sima Cuo's army is far away, but the next priority is to protect Yingdu and repel Bai Qi's 30,000 Qin army infantry and cavalry!" Zhao Hua continued.
Xiong Wuliang nodded slowly.
It is not difficult to defeat Bai Qi's 30,000 Qin army!
Everyone says that the Qin army is unparalleled in combat power and invincible with equal forces - but this conclusion is pure nonsense to Xiong Wuliang.
With Xiong Wuliang spending money at all costs, whether it is the 10,000 Quyang New Army or the 10,000 Qiaoqi Army, they are the best soldiers in the world.
In a head-on battle of combat strength, the 20,000 Chu army could defeat the Qin army's 30,000 infantry cavalry.
The only thing that's not sure... is whether Yingdu can block Bai Qi's attack at this moment? Can we wait until Xiong Wuliang comes back to help?
"The three armies obey the order - speed up!" Xiong Wuliang ordered.
Yingdu is the capital of the Chu kings and the place where the tombs of the ancestors of the past dynasties are located!
The significance is too great and must not be lost!
…
Dachu, the capital of Ying.
As the political and power center of Chu State, this royal city is undergoing a severe test at this moment.
The Qin army on the opposite side set up a flood plan and easily defeated the 200,000 improvised Chu army - the morale of the soldiers and civilians in the capital of Ying was greatly depressed.
Coupled with the disappearance of King Chu, Yingdu was even more panicked.
Qin general Bai Qi did not leave much reaction time for Yingdu, but immediately built siege equipment and stormed Yingdu!
If under normal circumstances, a mere 30,000 Qin soldiers wanted to break through the royal city of Yingdu, that would be nonsense!
But today's situation is very different——
Most of the combatable soldiers in Yingdu were killed in the two battles, the "Battle of Luguan" and the "Battle of the Outskirts of Yingdu" - especially the battle outside Yingdu. In order to give Wu Ben They gathered 200,000 soldiers as soon as possible and captured strong men almost door to door in Yingdu.
There are really not many adult men in the city nowadays.
As for the core defense force of Yingdu, the vast majority of Chu's powerful imperial army fell on the battlefield of Lu Pass.
Now there are only two thousand Imperial Guard soldiers in the city, which can be considered as the entire main force defending the city.
Coupled with some temporarily recruited soldiers... Yingdu is in danger!
