"What? Chu Jun? King Han got up from his seat, took the battle report from the hands of the soldiers who came to report the news, and looked at the battle report in disbelief.

The soldier said worriedly: "King, let's evacuate Xinzheng quickly, the state of Chu has launched an attack, the number of troops is not less than 100,000, and there are only 30,000 defenders in Xinzheng City!" ”

After reading it, King Han stumbled back, but fortunately, the waiter quickly held King Han up, otherwise his head would have hit the bronze table.

"Quick, quick, quick! Ask for help from Wei and Zhao! After Han Wang finished speaking, he passed out. Leaving behind a bunch of panicked chamberlains.

"Kill!" A Dechu soldier dressed in armor woven from bronze armor jumped from a cloud ladder to the top of the city. Swing your sword and kill two Korean archers.

Suddenly, a long pole stabbed into the soldier's body, and the soldier leaned back, fell into the city, and smashed on the shield of the Chu State below.

"General, the offensive has been blocked, and our army has not yet taken the south gate." A soldier rushed up to report on the siege ahead.

Tang Mo held the crossbar in front of the chariot and asked, "Is there any movement of the Korean army around?" Is there any support? ”

The soldier shook his head and said, "No, most of the Korean troops were intimidated by our army, and there was no one to support. ”

"Report ————" As he spoke, another scout rushed over and said, "20,000 reinforcements from Hanzhong have arrived!" ”

"Hanzhong Reinforcement ???" Tang Mo took the battle report with a confused face, and there were three big question marks in his heart.

At this time, a general came over, saluted Tang Fu, and said, "General Yu, Hanzhong Shou Qu Zhang commanded 20,000 Hanzhong troops, and came to support the general on the order of the king!" ”

"The King?" Tang Yu was even more confused, "The king called you here?" How did I not know about this? ”

The general waved his hand and motioned to the soldier next to him to hand Xiong Huai's edict to him, and the soldier walked up and handed the edict in his hand to Tang Yu.

Tang Yu took the edict, and finally relieved himself after repeatedly confirming the authenticity of the edict.

Whoosh - collapse, with a loud bang, Xinzheng's city wall was smashed out of a huge hole by a catapult, the wall collapsed randomly, and a natural passage was formed.

"Look, General!" The adjutant pointed excitedly to the place where the Xinzheng city wall collapsed and said, "The Xinzheng city wall is broken!" ”

Tang Mo smiled slightly and said, "Mingjin retreats!" ”

"What? Mingjin withdraws troops? The lieutenant generals asked incredulously, "Xinzheng is about to break the city, why do you want to withdraw the troops?" ”

Tang Yu only said one sentence: "The value of Xinzheng is even greater." With that, he walked back.

——————

Daliang Palace, Wei Wangfu is reading the battle report sent back from the Huaisi battlefield, the general content is very simple, the Chu army in Luyang is the army drawn from the Huaisi battlefield, the Chu State has been exhausted, tear down the east wall to make up the west wall, Gongsun Yan on the Huaisi side has stabilized the situation, and has set up an ambush on the road from Luyang to Huaisi, just wait for the next wave of reinforcements to garrison Huaisi, he can draw out troops to attack Yingdu with confidence.

The anger of Lu Yang's fiasco before Wei Wang Gang was also dispersed by this good situation, and he also found a warlock for divination for the survival of the prince's heir, and the warlock gave Wei Wang Gang a flicker, saying that the luck of Chu was gone, and the battle of Luyang was the return of Chu State. The crown prince is about to come back or something, in this era, they are convinced of the words of these warlocks, and King Wei is overjoyed. dragged the fifty or sixty-year-old body and went to have a good time (didn't drive ✺◟ (∗❛ัᴗ❛ั∗)◞✺).

Of course, Wei Wangfu was more helpless, because Wei had no troops to transfer out at this time, and all the soldiers in the country were sent to the Huaisi battlefield, and the defeat of Luyang led to the annihilation of the last fresh army of Wei, and there were no soldiers in the country.

Fortunately, at this time, ploughing and warfare were combined, and as long as Wei Wangfu was willing, he could draw part of his troops from the peasants at any time to pull up an army. Combat effectiveness is not guaranteed.

In this era, the combination of farming and warfare was a common model in all countries, with soldiers in wartime and farmers in idle time. It can not only ensure that the country can cope with some large-scale wars, but also ensure that the country has the capital to fight a protracted war.

Of course, in this era, some countries also set up standing armies, such as Qi, Qin, Zhao, and Wei.

Qi has another standing army of 100,000, Qin has a standing army of 150,000, Zhao has a standing army of 50,000, and Wei has a standing army of 80,000, and the combat power is relatively high.

"King, secret report." From the gate leading to the side hall on the left, an attendant walked in and said, "A secret message from Korea." ”

King Wei frowned, took the battle report, and asked, "What kind of moth is there over there for King Han?" ”

The chamberlain wanted to speak again and again, hesitated for a while and said: "The Chu army has appeared in Xinzheng, and at present, it is currently attacking Xinzheng. ”

"What?" Wei Wangfu hurriedly opened the secret report.

Secret report: The king of Wei personally opened, Chu Sheng and our army drove straight into Luyang, bypassing our army to raid Xinzheng, the defenders of Xinzheng were less than 50,000, and I hope that the king of Wei will quickly send reinforcements to save Han, otherwise. Korea will withdraw the troops of Shangdang and Huaisi, hoping that the king of Wei will weigh the pros and cons.

"King Han is stupid! Han Kang is stupid! Stupid! Wei Wangfu's mood plummeted, and he was furious.

Is this called a call for help? This is called a naked threat, and the implication is that you, Wei Gang, must send troops to support, not only to send troops. You have to send troops faster, otherwise I won't fight Chu with you, anyway, the Han army has been pinning down the Zhao army, if you don't send troops, I will withdraw the army, let the Zhao State attack in, see what you do.

"I wonder what caused the king to be so irritable?" Mang Mao below asked.

King Wei crumpled the silk cloth in his hand and threw it vigorously, and said viciously: "Xinzheng was beaten by the Chu State, and the King of Han forced us to send troops!" ”

"Huh?" Mang Mao was taken aback, stepped forward to pick up the battle report, looked at it, and said, "I don't know what the king is going to do?" ”

King Wei snorted and said, "If you don't save it, the widow won't save South Korea, and King Han's attitude is not bullying me Wei State?" If the widow went to save him, wouldn't that admit that Wei obeyed the orders of Korea? The widow of Yiyang Xiangwang has already lost face once, and in this matter, the widow will definitely not save South Korea! ”

Mang Mao looked at Wei Wanggang's appearance and wanted to persuade him, but he didn't expect to be scolded by Wei Wanggang fiercely, saying what to speak for South Korea, Mang Mao is also a lover, so he definitely can't bear it, and immediately changed his attitude and agreed not to send troops to South Korea.

…………………………

Outside Daliang City, Gongsun Xi commanded the Wei army, which had just been formed not long ago, and drove towards the south, and all this was secretly watched by a pair of eyes in the woods on the left.
