"Damn it, I was fooled!"
After struggling for a long time, Qiu Shuo understood instantly when he heard the shouts of killing approaching.
He knew in his heart that the shogunate army above the west gate was simply a decoration to attract his attention.
The Qin army's main attack direction is at the south gate!
"General, the south gate has been breached by the Qin army, and the Qin people have entered the city!" A look of solemnity appeared in the eyes of the commander of the guards. He naturally knew that when the Qin people entered the city, their lives were in danger.
Hearing this, Qiu Shuo's expression changed instantly, and then he turned to the commander of the guards and said, "Instruct our soldiers to stop counterattack and surrender to the Qin army!"
"General, this..."
At this moment, the guard commander's expression changed. He did not expect Qiu Shuo to say such words.
"Don't think too much!"
Qiu Shuo's tone was solemn: "Whatever we can think of, the Qin Army General will definitely be able to think of!"
"Qixian County can no longer defend it!"
"If you don't surrender, you will die in vain!"
"promise."
Losing their will to resist, the Chu army surrendered. In a short period of time, Zhao Shu led his army to take over the entire Qixian County.
"Sir, Qixian County has been completely taken over. The Qixian County magistrate and county lieutenants have all surrendered!"
Hearing this, a look of solemnity appeared in Zhao Shu's eyes, and he said: "Instruct the military Chinese medicine doctors to treat the wounded soldiers, and at the same time, take over the defense of Qixian County."
“Don’t change the Qixian flag!”
"From now on, kill all the scouts who have been interrogated, and then use them as dead soldiers in the hidden palace to maintain the exchange of information!"
"promise!"
"Instruct the lieutenant to carry out city defense and prepare to roll rocks, logs and arrows!"
"promise!"
Qixian County is just a small town, and Zhao Shu knows that if he wants to fight Xiang Yan to death, it won't take long, and he will be trapped to death in less than three months!
After taking a sip of water, Zhao Shu raised his head and looked at Zhao Beichen: "How about the food and grass in Qixian County's treasury?"
"Sir, Qixian County, as the transit point between Huaibei and Huainan, has sufficient reserves of food and grass. If there is a war, even if our army's logistics supply line is cut off, holding on to March will not be a problem!"
A look of solemnity appeared in Zhao Beichen's eyes: "However, Qixian is a small city with so much money and food, but the Chu people use it as a transit!"
"There are also some arrows and common objects in the treasury, just long swords!"
"However, the arrows and our Qin crossbow are different in size and cannot be used at all!"
"Unless it's a costume change!"
"It is not advisable to change equipment. Allocate manpower from the equipment camp and organize it immediately to improve these arrows!"
"It's too late to open mountains and quarry rocks. You personally lead people to cut down trees and make rolling logs!"
"At the same time, we announced a curfew and sealed off the inside and outside of Qi County. If any suspicious person is found, there is no need to ask for instructions, and they will be killed without mercy——!"
"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Zhao Beichen turned and left.
Standing at the head of Qixian City, Zhao Shu felt helpless. If he had to fight Xiang Yan, he still had a chance of winning. However, the military order he received was to comprehensively block Xiang Yan and prevent Xiang Yan from crossing the Huai River.
Otherwise, he could use infantry to set up ambushes, use equipment to encircle and kill, and use cavalry to attack, which would be enough to achieve great results in and outside Qixian County.
........
Xiang Yan led his army to retreat in an orderly manner, and the main force of 200,000 and the tribal army of 100,000 rushed to Qixian.
Especially the tribal army, they have begun to distrust Xiang Yan in their hearts.
The battle situation in Huaibei has been reported to the army.
Zhao Tao looked ugly, his eyes full of solemnity: "Is Jing Qi really killed in battle?"
"Um!"
The scout leader came towards Zhaotuo and said: "The Qin army has been prepared for a long time. All the troops have moved together to surround and kill General Jing Qi's troops in one fell swoop!"
"With an army of 100,000, how can we be the opponent of an army of hundreds of thousands, let alone the general of the Qin Dynasty, Wang Jian!"
Hearing this, Zhaotuo pondered for a long time and then gave the order directly: "Sima of the Central Army, order the army to speed up and strive to separate from the general's command!"
"At the same time, spread this news to Huainan and let the Jing family and the king know!"
"promise!"
Zhaotao doesn’t want to sit still and wait for death!
Jing Qi is already dead, he can only be next.
At this time, Zhaotuo also realized that Xiang Yan was secretly using war step by step to reduce the strength of the tribe.
No matter what Xiang Yan said, Xiang Yan's actions have already proved this.
Upon realizing this, Zhao Tao felt fear in his heart. He was born into a rich family, so he naturally knew what this meant.
This means that Xiang Yan is dissatisfied with the situation and the king of Chu. He wants to change the state of Chu and has already taken action.
This also led to Zhaotuo no longer trusting Xiang Yan. He knew in his heart that this tribal army must also be Xiang Yan's target.
So, he wants to resist!
Want to save yourself!
At the same time, Xiang Yan also looked solemn at this moment. He found that he was too confident.
Before this plan started, he was confident that he could control everything. However, when the plan was implemented, Xiang Yan found that things developed beyond his expectation.
"General, the death of Jing Qi and the death of a hundred thousand tribal troops have made Zhao Tao's attitude come back to mind."
Xiang Liang looked at Xiang Yan with a complicated expression, and said, "Big brother sent news that there are many spies in Jiangdong, and the clan members are under surveillance."
"The private soldiers of the clan have been mobilized. Jiangdong is afraid that it will be difficult to continue to help us!"
Hearing this, Xiang Yan couldn't help but sigh. He lacked complete control over the development of the situation.
At this time, he realized that his Xiang clan's control over the Chu land was so weak.
"What do you think we should do now?" Xiang Yan said word by word towards Xiang Liang for a long time.
He was completely out of ideas.
There were three tribes and the king of Chu in front of him, and the Qin army and Wang Jian were chasing him in the back. He was extremely upset.
After hearing this, Xiang Liang pondered for a long time and said to Xiang Yan: "General, there is no good countermeasure at the moment. We can only take one step at a time."
…
"Now that we have made a choice, right or wrong, we have only one way to go."
"After all, we were destined to have no retreat from the beginning of our plan."
"Besides, the people of Qin are eyeing us, and they will not give us a way out. For now, we can only make a desperate move."
"Take advantage of this opportunity to completely control the Chu land, and then gather the morale of the people of Chu to compete with the people of Qin."
"General, quickly rush to the outskirts of Qixian County and then cross the Huaihe River!"
"Um!"
Hearing this, Xiang Yan also nodded. He turned to Xiang Liang and said, "You are right, but what should we do with the 100,000 tribal army in Zhaotuo's hands?"
"General, they belong to our Chu Army. It is not appropriate to attack them now. Something has happened to Jing Qi. At this time, the atmosphere is strange..."
"The best thing we can do is do nothing and withdraw to Huainan!"
