Chapter 625 What a shame

Cheng Kai did not punish him, and even according to his previous temperament, he beheaded the defeated generals to show the public.

It's not that he's soft-hearted, it's forced by the situation.

The five city garrisons are gone, which is equivalent to destroying one-third of his men and horses, and his Chinese army is completely exposed in front of the Xia army.

"Order, abandon all heavy items, take only weapons and equipment, food and grass, and move to Jiawang City overnight. ”

Can't hesitate, the scouts came to report, to see the vanguard of the Xia army, less than fifty miles away from the Chinese army camp.

Cheng Kai hurriedly ordered the camp to be pulled up, abandoned some siege equipment, camp tents and other heavy items, and only took weapons and equipment and grain and grass to Jiawang City, which was fifty miles away.

Jiawang City is the largest of more than a dozen cities, and most of the materials for the capture of more than a dozen cities in Sushan Kingdom are stored here, and there is no room for loss.

Jiawang City is also strong, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which can withstand the offensive of the Xia army.

Cheng Kai moved fast enough, and the two Soviet armies did react slowly, and failed to intercept Cheng Kai's men and horses in time, even if they harassed and blocked for a while, the Xia army could catch up with the Qin army.

Su Jie, who was far away in Kacheng, got the report and overturned the table in anger, if it wasn't for the persuasion of the king of Sushan, he would have wanted to kill the three coalition generals guarding the east bank of the Quliu River.

In fact, these three generals are not entirely to blame, they really scared the Qin army, and after receiving a report from Liu Yong, I hope that they will cross the river to block the Qin army and buy some time for them to pursue the Qin army.

After all, the Xia army had just broken through five cities and wiped out more than 100,000 Qin troops, and the post-war events dragged them down, and Cheng Kai ran too fast.

However, these three generals were full of doubts, and they didn't believe that the Xia army could take the five cities occupied by the Qin army so easily, after all, the three of them led nearly 100,000 men and horses, but they couldn't even capture a city.

They didn't believe that the Xia army had really defeated the Qin army and recaptured five cities, let alone that the Xia army could pursue the Qin army, so they didn't dare to act and watched the Qin army pass.

When they saw the Xia Army's team chasing after them, the three of them came to their senses.

"It turns out that the Xia army really defeated the Qin army, and we missed the fighter, this is bad, will the general punish us?"

The three of them came together and muttered.

"What should we do?"

One of the three is a relative of the Su family, and he is older, so he has become the backbone of the other two.

"What else can I do, make up for it, you hurry back, and take your own people across the river to Jiawang City. ”

So the three of them took their men and horses to cross the Quliu River together, and followed the Xia army to Jiawang City quickly.

Two days later, they finally caught up with Xia Jun.

The Xia army came over one and a half legions, the Ling Wei army left some people to deal with the aftermath, and the northern army also left some people to deal with the aftermath, and now the two families together have 150,000 horses, which is really overwhelming and flocking to the city that can already be seen in the distance.

This is the largest city in the western part of Sushan, Jiawang City.

At noon, the Xia army had arrived outside the south of Jiawang City, and quickly set up a battle formation, less than half an hour, the formation was formed, more than ten miles of countless small phalanxes, swords and halberds are numerous, bows and crossbows are opened, the shield array is like fish scales, the formation is rigorous, and it stands silently.

It can be seen that Xia Jun's quality is excellent.

The two Soviet troops who followed behind did not feel ashamed.

On the way here, it was learned that the general Su Jie had come to Jiawang City, so the coalition forces turned east to join the Chinese army.

Obviously, the coalition army came late, and the Qin army was already in full array, looking at the tall and strong city wall, Su Jie sighed.

"Order, set up camp, and strictly prevent the Qin army from stealing the camp. ”

Outside the eastern city, the two Soviet armies began to set up camp, and it seemed impossible to take Jiawang City in one go.

In the Xia army, Liu Yong, Ye Chenghai and others also studied it, and they also felt that it was impossible to break through such a fortified city in a short time, so they ordered to set up camp.

There are also many soldiers and horses in the west of Jiawang City, which are part of the Black Flag Army and part of the elite of the Water Army.

Liao Jinkui and Zhang Yu walked side by side.

"General Guoda, you see that the soldiers are also very tired from the rush all the way, do you want to make a meal and rest first?"

Zhang Yu nodded, he has been killing cool in the past few days, and he is in a good mood, but looking at the tall city wall of Jiawang City, he also feels that he has stopped here.

"I don't know if General Zuo is in place?"

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Zhang Yu sat opposite Liao Jinkui, Liao Jinkui raised his glass and touched Zhang Yu, then drank it all, put down the wine bottle and asked.

The Black Flag Army was divided into two parts, one led by Zuo Xuan and Zhang Xian to penetrate directly to the north of Sushan State, and fought an ambush for the Qin army outside Yicheng, and then received an order from the general to let them go around to the north of Jiawang City, waiting for an opportunity to loot or burn the materials that the Qin army was preparing to transport.

There are still six or seven cities on the back in the hands of the Qin army, and there are only a small number of soldiers and horses of the Suli State on this side, and the other more than 100,000 horses are the local army of the Sushan State, and the combat effectiveness is very poor.

If it weren't for Zhang Yu's awareness, he suggested that Zuo Xuan go to the south of Yicheng to ambush and fight a Qin army ambush, I'm afraid that Yicheng would have become the Qin army's.

"No news has come yet. ”

Their information transmission is based on the messenger of the navy, in the enemy-occupied area, the use of eagles and pigeons needs to be extremely cautious, especially Zuo Xuan, they will be exposed if they are not careful, and in the area occupied by hundreds of thousands of Qin troops, it is exposed that even if the Black Flag Army is strong, it will be surrounded and annihilated, and it is careless.

After the two discussed, they sent someone to ask the general for instructions on the next move.

Liu Yong was greeting the visiting King of Sushan and Su Jie at this moment.

As soon as the Xia army came, they helped recover the five cities and annihilated more than 100,000 Qin troops, which had to be thanked by the king of Sushan.

"You don't have to be polite, please inside. ”

The king of Sushan has no king's frame at the moment, he can't stand up, don't look at Liu Yong is just a general of a neighboring country, in terms of status, he is naturally the king of the vassal states, but the strength of the people is there, and they are here to help him, so he has to surrender his identity and be polite.

Liu Yong and Su Jie met, and after the ceremony, they came to the Chinese army's tent together.

After the reception, let's get down to business.

"Dare to ask the general what he plans to do next?"

At this time, Su Ming's face has to be revealed.

"Does General Su have a good strategy?"

Liu Yong asked politely.

After all, others are the masters, and they are guests, so Liu Yong did not take the lead.

"What is a good strategy, I'm not afraid of your jokes, although our coalition army is slightly more numerous than the Qin army, and it is a local battle to fight against the invaders, but, alas, "

Su Jie also has a hard time, and I don't know why, the combat strength of the armies of Suli and Sushan is not high, and he regrets not moving the Qin army, and has fought a lot of battles, but he can always have proud achievements.

On the other hand, the Xia army defeated the Qin army as soon as it came, destroying more than 100,000 people, so how embarrassing was he 、、、、、
