The victory of the battle was expected by everyone, and it can be said that there was no suspense.
Therefore, Han Xin is not in a hurry, and works steadily to ensure the life of every soldier!
The army has been marching forward with great success, and has successively captured two cities of the Maurya Dynasty, destroyed more than 300,000 troops, captured more than 100,000 people, and captured countless grain, grass, and horses!
So far, except for a few soldiers who sprained their ankles while running, and a few artillerymen who injured their arms while moving the artillery, the others haven't even lost a hair!
After the soldiers had eaten and drank enough, they rested well all night and felt full of strength.
As a result, Han Xin ordered a sweep of the entire city of Bodhgaya. As long as there were any remaining troops in the tribe, they would all be found!
At the same time, Moore and several veterans also fled back to Huashi City in embarrassment, met with King Jialuo, and told the whole story!
"What are you talking about? The 300,000 troops sent, plus the 60,000 garrison troops in Bodhgaya City, were completely wiped out in less than half a day?"
King Jialuo's face darkened when he saw the embarrassed looks of them.
After hearing the whole thing, I was furious!
"Did you grow up eating shit? Don't you know how to adapt?"
After losing more than 300,000 elite soldiers and generals in one fell swoop, King Jialuo kicked over the low table in front of him angrily, and the fruits on the table were scattered all over the floor.
All the ministers in the palace were startled, and their whole bodies were agitated.
Several veterans who were envoys shrank their necks, did not dare to say a word, and allowed the fruits to hit them!
King Jia Luo put his hands on his hips and paced back and forth angrily.
After a moment, he pointed at More and angrily shouted, "And you! You are my most trusted minister. They are incompetent. Are you also incompetent?"
"You usually look very smart, but why are you so stupid this time? The Qin Dynasty refused to give in, so you sent troops. Don't you know how to maneuver?"
"They have come all the way, and they will definitely not leave if there is no benefit. As long as they are willing to return our land, why not give them the rest?"
Even though King Jialuo usually trusted More the most, he was also the most vicious when he scolded him when he made mistakes.
Moore buried his head deeply and did not dare to say a word.
There is no way, who makes someone the king?
It is now, after losing this battle, that the king will say this.
If he wins this battle, his status in the Maurya Dynasty will be upgraded to another level.
When the time comes, the king will praise him for his courage and fortitude in safeguarding the interests of the Maurya Dynasty!
He wouldn't have said these words!
He also said that as long as the land is returned, other things are fine!
I guess if he really does that, he will be scolded even worse when he comes back!
They will say that he has no spine and will disgrace the Maurya Dynasty!
"Your Majesty, it's useless to say anything now. The Qin Army's next target is our Hua Clan City. We should quickly think of a way to stop the Qin Army, right?"
King Jialuo wanted to curse some more, but a senior member of the court stepped in and stopped him.
"Yes! Your Majesty, the Qin army does have extraordinary weapons. We have seen with our own eyes that the explosion is so powerful that humans cannot resist it. I am afraid that only the elephant army can fight it!"
"That's right! The elephant army is huge, and its roar may be able to scare the Qin army!"
"Your Majesty, the Qin army is coming fiercely. If you want to keep our Maurya Dynasty, I'm afraid we can only mobilize all the troops and send out the elephant army to start a life-or-death battle with it...!"
The veterans who had just escaped raised their heads one after another, describing the terrifying power of the Qin army with fear on their faces, hoping that King Jialuo would send out the elephant army.
"Hmph! I have already said that the elephant army is the backing of my Maurya Dynasty and will never be used unless absolutely necessary!"
But even so, King Jia Luo still had no intention of using the Xiang Army.
"Your Majesty, we all know the significance of the Elephant Army, but if we don't send out the Elephant Army to drive away the Qin Army, I'm afraid Huashi City will not be protected!"
According to the previous agreement, Moore also opened his mouth to persuade.
"Hmph! Shut up, you still don't believe me. Our Maurya Dynasty can mobilize at least nearly 600,000 troops. How can it be possible that we can't even defeat the Qin army with less than 300,000 troops?"
King Jialuo said that he did not want to use the elephant army.
"Your Majesty, the Qin Army destroyed the 100,000-strong army in Jilinga City in just one hour, and the 360,000-strong army in Bodhgaya City in less than half a day. This is enough to prove that the Qin Army has the help of devils. If If we don’t send the elephant army, even if we have 600,000 troops, we probably won’t be able to withstand the Qin army’s offensive!”
After personally visiting the city of Bodhgaya, most of More's previous arrogance has been worn away. Now he only hopes to drive the Qin army away as soon as possible.
Otherwise, the Maurya Dynasty will fall and his good days will come to an end!
"Your Majesty, even Lord Moore has said this. It seems that we must send out the elephant army this time!"
"Yes, Your Majesty, for the sake of the Maurya Dynasty, it is better to be on the safe side!"
"The Qin army is about to attack Huashi City. If we don't send the elephant army now, when will we wait...?"
At this moment, everyone in the palace, old and young, all knelt down and prayed to King Jialuo.
If a few people do this, King Jia Luo can also reprimand them and oppose this proposal.
But now everyone is kneeling in front of him, and he begins to hesitate!
"Your Majesty, General Reis died in battle, and the Lord of Bodh Gaya had already fled without a trace when he saw that something was not going well. This is enough to show how powerful the Qin Army is! Even a few of us managed to escape from the clutches of the Qin Army. I escaped and reported the news! I hope the king will take action soon to stop the Qin army!"
"I hope your Majesty will take action soon to stop the Qin army...!"
Everyone kowtowed together and prayed to King Jala.
After much thought, King Jia Luo finally agreed!
As a result, King Jialuo sent most of the generals from the palace to join the battle and discuss the battle strategy together.
After finalizing the battle plan, he led the elephant army and set off towards Bodh Gaya City!
The elephant army itself is huge and does not walk very fast. Plus, they are wearing heavy protective armor, so their speed is even slower!
To ensure safety, the army can only stop and go, waiting for the elephant army!
This time, all 10,000 Xiang troops were dispatched, but of the 600,000 assembled troops, only 500,000 were dispatched. The remaining 100,000 stayed in Huashi City to protect the safety of the palace!
In case of any accident, we can protect the princes and nobles from evacuating smoothly!
After Qin Jun learned the news, everyone was very excited.
There were no obstacles along the way, and it was very boring.
Finally meeting their elephant army was a bit challenging!
Everyone wants to see this elephant army that is said to be invincible. What is it like?
Of course, the happiest person is Fan Kuai.
He has been thinking about it all the way, waiting for this battle!
Even though Meng Yun had dismissed many of his thoughts, he was still full of expectations!
