Chapter 716: Burning Blue Mouth Gathering

"Hehe, wait, adults, let's go pull the food ......"

Waiting for this, the housekeepers of each house immediately went down to pay homage to each house.

Soon there was a lot of chickens and dogs jumping around the country.

In order to earn this double profit, these families not only sent all their food to the barracks, but also looted the people nearby.

In the name of the court of Chu Yueguo, he received all the rations of the people.

Soon, the endless stream of grain was delivered to Xiang Yan's hands.

However, these are still not enough.

For hundreds of thousands of troops, this little food can barely be made to drink some porridge.

The big camp of Chu Yue country, the torches are bright.

The smoke doesn't stop.

Hundreds of thousands of troops rotated overnight, barely filling their stomachs.

"General, Da Zhou's foot soldiers are chasing after you! Now stop five miles away! ”

The general in charge of the rear embankment ran back and reported to Xiang Yan.

Xiang Yan asked, "How many came?" Who leads! ”

"General, there are not many 30,000 people, and the leader is Di Qing himself!" Come and go.

Thirty thousand!

Not much!

But there are no less.

If he was looking for peacetime, he would definitely fight directly in the field and defeat Di Qing with superior forces.

But not right now.

Although they had just eaten something, the 100,000-strong army was too tired and had no fighting spirit.

There is a high probability that it will still be lost.

"Watch closely, do a good job of protection, don't be rushed in by the army of the Great Zhou!"

Xiang Yan explained, and then waved his hand to signal that he could go down.

After thinking for a while, he said: "Order, the army sets off and marches to Yicheng!" ”

The 50,000 troops who first arrived in the country.

The first to set off, only halfway through, received a terrifying news, and hurriedly sent someone back to inform Xiang Yan.

At this time, Xiang Yan, who was in the country, was about to lead the army to set off.

Receiving the news of the southbound army, the whole person was also stunned for a moment.

Then he smiled wryly.

"I said that Di Qing couldn't be so well-behaved, his cavalry never saw it, it turned out that he was bypassing Zhonglu and sneaking up on Yicheng!"

Xiang Yan seemed to be a little accustomed to the problems that Da Zhou gave him.

"Order, the army will be rerouted and go to Ruoguo!"

"Then send an order, let the Yellow Army take those 50,000 people to recapture Yicheng for me, if I can capture Yicheng and eliminate the cavalry of the Great Zhou, I will give him a great credit, show Your Majesty, and give him the title of marquis!"

The loss of Yicheng made the shortcut for Xiang Yan's army to retreat to Lankouju gone.

You can only go to the more remote country of Ruo.

Moreover, the area was relatively barren, and there was no city to provide him with food.

There are only a few village pavilions, which can barely be restocked.

"Report! General, Di Qing only sent 10,000 people to chase after him, and more than 20,000 went to Yicheng! ”

Information came from time to time, Xiang Yan listened to it, and only said: "Speed up the south!" ”

Di Qing wanted to eat the Yellow Army first, and was using the mobility of the cavalry to fight Lankouju.

So there is not much time left for Xiang Yan.

If you let Di Qing take the first step to attack Lankouju.

Then his army of hundreds of thousands will also be unlucky.

Because Lankouju was the only bayonet for him to cross the river and return to Gangneung.

If you can't cross the river from Lankou, you can only take the mountain road to the southeast to Jiangxia County.

In the vast Dabie Mountain, in the absence of food and no roads, how can we go to the hinterland of Jiangxia County.

"Come, go...... Suixian, forget it! "Xiang Yan originally wanted to send someone to the eastern part of Nanyang to ask for help.

But when he thought of Ye Qing, he felt that there was no need to do more.

Ye Qing will definitely send troops to advance into the south of Nanyang.

Without Xiangyang, Jinghong would not be able to hold on to Tongbai Dafu Mountain, and would definitely retreat to Runan.

It took two days for the army to reach Ruoxian.

"The general is not good, Ruoxian was also burned by fire the day before, and there are small-scale Zhou troops."

"The people in the vicinity have fled, and our army can't collect food!"

Xiang Yan's body swayed for a moment, and her eyes were dark.

Dizzy for a moment, then stood firm.

"If the kingdom of the world, collect food from them!"

This was Xiang Yan's first reaction after coming back to his senses.

The general who came to report said with a bitter face: "General, the treasury of the major families has also been burned, and the families of Ruoguo have no food!" ”

"I ...... Poof......"

Xiang Yan really fainted this time.

…………

Blue mouth gathering!

A naval army camp in Chu Yue Kingdom is located here.

"I heard that Nanyang lost the battle again?"

"Yes, I heard that Xiang Yan, the general of Zhenxi, was in Xiangyang for two days, and he was driven out by the army of the Great Zhou!"

"Da Zhou only dispatched 60,000 or 70,000 people, but we have 250,000 people, why did we lose again!"

The soldiers of Chu Yue who patrolled the night gathered around the fire, roasted the fire, and discussed what was happening on the front line.

"Who knows, anyway, I heard that Da Zhou has very powerful siege weapons, and the tall walls of Xiangyang City can't stop it."

"Xiangyang can't stop it, so can our Lankou Ju block the attack of Da Zhou?"

The man at the head said: "Don't worry, our Lankouju is a water village, the city is on the west bank, and Da Zhou wants to cross the river to be better than the warships of our navy."

Without a ship, even if there are thousands of troops in the Great Zhou, they can't kill it. ”

"This is also, in terms of the water army, my Chu Yue country is invincible in the world, and the Great Zhou can only ride a horse in the northwest to be arrogant, and when it comes to our south, it will be swallowed up by our river network all over the world!"

"Open your eyes, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it is estimated that our army will all be withdrawn here, and we will be busy then."

These Chu Yue people didn't notice.

Not far away, countless black shadows were quietly approaching.

These dark shadows are agile one by one.

The wooden fence of the water village was quickly overturned by these black shadows as agile as monkeys.

After a while, the black shadows approached the Shuizhai military camp.

The water village is generally half on the shore and one side in the water.

There are barracks built on the shore, as well as facilities for making fires and living.

Ships of all sizes and purposes are parked in the water.

The water village has two gates, one in the water, which is used for boat intake.

One is on land, in and out of the chariots and horses.

"Who?"

A soldier of Chu Yue Kingdom, who was chatting over the fire, found that a black shadow passed behind him.

Reflexively asked.

The next moment, several throwing knives were fired.

Straight cut neck.

Then a few dark shadows flew over.

The venomous short sword pierced into the chest of these Chu soldiers.

Cut their necks.

"Puff ......"

These patrol soldiers of Chu Yue Kingdom were easily killed in this way.

"A team looks for flammable objects and sets them on fire!"

"The second team got on the ship, grabbed the ship and burned the ship."

"Three teams to block the Chu Yue reinforcements from the city!"

"Four teams and five teams are fighting with the enemy in the water village to prevent the Chu Yue State Navy from extinguishing the fire!"

"The six teams ambushed in the direction of Yicheng to block the remnants of the Chu Yue Kingdom who fled!"

Lu Xun commanded the troublesome soldiers and issued orders one by one.

The annoyance relief soldiers were dispatched one after another to carry out their own tasks.

Soon, a fire broke out in the water village of Chu Yue Kingdom.

The flames were blazing, and the entire camp was full of smoke.

"Not good! If there is an enemy, rise up and meet the enemy! ”

The sailors of Chu Yue Kingdom were awakened one after another, and even their barracks were set on fire.

One by one, they hurriedly got up and rushed towards the barracks door.

The next moment, I saw a bow and arrow.

"Puff ......"

The soldiers of Chu Yueguo, who rushed out in an instant, fell down one after another.
