Chapter 729: A Contest of Experience and Insight

I remember that a moment ago, Zhao Hongrun was still secretly evaluating that Shouling Jun Jingshe, thinking that although this person was decisive, he was not decisive enough, and he did not launch a general attack as soon as he came up, which could not put pressure on Wei Jun.

And the next moment, Zhao Hongrun couldn't wait to slap his mouth and secretly scolded himself for his crow's mouth.

It turned out that seeing that the 30,000 Shouling Army led by Fei Zhuang did not achieve good results, that Shouling Jun Jingshe really launched a general attack on the ice city of the Wei army as Zhao Hongrun thought.

Nearly 300,000 Chu troops attacked the ice city of the Wei army from the east, south, and west, even if it was Zhao Hongrun, he couldn't help but hold his breath at this moment, and his heart was quite nervous.

After all, you must know that the ice city of the Wei army, in fact, carefully speaking, the ice wall in the north has not yet been built, so Zhao Hongrun is afraid that the Chu army will return to the north.

And in this siege battle, the cold weather really helped Zhao Hongrun a lot, this cold and freezing environment, ice and snow environment, both the Wei army and the Chu army, the strength that can be played in this battle is greatly reduced.

A siege battle lasted for about an hour, but the results achieved by both sides were not even half of the warm weather, especially on the Chu army, I don't know how many soldiers slipped and fell to the ground on the way to the charge because the snow was stepped into ice, and their noses were bruised and their faces were swollen.

Because of this, when the scouts in the army reported to Shouling Jun Jingshe that there was still a large section of the Wei army's ice city that had not yet been built, Jingshe did not immediately order a strong attack on that weak point.

Why?

Because the generals on the side of the Chu army couldn't support it - even Jingshe, who was wearing a thick coat, felt stiff all over his body after standing for more than an hour in this kind of ice and snow weather, not to mention those Chu soldiers who still only had a thin piece of armor?

God won't help me.

Sighing secretly, Shouling Jun Jingshe decisively ordered the whole army to retreat.

He knew that it was impossible to conquer the ice city of the Wei army today, firstly, because of the Wei army's resistance, and secondly, the weather was really not conducive to the battle between the two armies.

"Woo-"

After a muffled sound of horns, nearly 300,000 Chu troops withdrew almost at the same moment, which made the Wei troops really breathe a sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, General Wu Ji pleaded with him to lead the army in pursuit."

A herald quickly came to Zhao Hongrun to convey the mind of Wu Ji, the chief general of the Shangshui Army.

But Zhao Hongrun shook his head after hearing this, and said indifferently: "No need to chase." ā€

Zhao Hongrun knew very well that Jing She was by no means afraid of the Wei army, or afraid of him, but Jing She was very wise and knew that this kind of weather was not conducive to fierce battles, so he decisively chose to evacuate, so as not to invade the spleen and lungs of his subordinates in this period.

If Wu Ji was really allowed to lead the army to pursue at this moment, then that Shouling Jun Jingshe would definitely not mind turning the spear and destroying Wu Ji's pursuing army.

So, after more than an hour of melee, the Chu army and the Wei army tacitly chose to strike on both sides: the Chu army retreated decisively, and the Wei army did not go out of the city to pursue without knowing each other.

Today's whole siege battle, but it seems to be vicious, but in fact, it seems a bit anticlimactic, but this can't be helped, who said that the current weather is really not conducive to fighting.

On the way to retreat, all the Chu armies returned to their respective camps, but the commanders of these armies came to Juyang County under the premise of being invited by Shouling Jun Jingshe.

After a while, everyone gathered in the mansion hall of Juyang Jun Xiong Li, and he didn't know if Juyang Jun Xiong Li was trying to win over these Juyang County who protected him, in short, he ordered the kitchen in the house to prepare many delicious dishes and excellent wine to entertain everyone.

Even, Juyang Jun Xiong Carp also ordered the beautiful Ji in the house to perform songs and dances to cheer everyone present.

Seeing the arrangement of Juyang Jun Xiong Carp, there were people like Zhou Zheng and Xu Yu who stared intently at those beautiful women and smiled secretly, and there were also those who showed a cold face like Xiong Tuo, the Jun of Xuancheng, and there were also those who did not look aside like Shouling Jun Jingshe, and looked at everything in front of them, in short, and so on.

After three rounds of drinking, the topic of the banquet involuntarily turned to the ice city of the Wei army and the commander of the Wei army, Ji Run.

For example, Zhou Zheng, the general under the command of Yanyang Junxiong, I don't know if there are two beautiful women serving wine at this moment, so he is full of pride, and said with conceit: "If it weren't for Lord Jingshe's order to retreat, or our army might have attacked the ice city of the Wei army......"

Listening to his words, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, secretly sneered in his heart.

Because of his aptitude, he entrusted the command of the troops to the general Ziche Division, and he followed Shouling Junjingshe and clearly saw the combat situation of each army in this formation.

In his opinion, at that time, none of the Chu troops showed the slightest bit of momentum to suppress the Wei army in the ice city, and they were all blocked outside the ice city by the latter.

And it is precisely because of this that Shouling Junjingshe will choose to withdraw his troops immediately.

If during that period, if there was a Chu army that was more angry, and had made a decision before the war and wanted to destroy the Wei army's ice city today, how could it have easily chosen to withdraw its troops?

And this week's campaign is good, and I didn't see him taking the lead and boosting morale, and at this moment he put on a regretful look of missing the victory, which is really shameful.

However, compared with the disdain of Xiong Tuo, the monarch of Xuancheng, the attitude of Shouling Jun Jingshe was very gentle, he did not dismantle Zhou Zheng's platform, and gave the other party a face: "Jing Mou doesn't want to withdraw his troops so early, it's really unstoppable." ā€

With his words, Guling Jun Xiong Wu took the lead, and everyone present began to say that this time it was Ji Run's good luck, otherwise, his ice city would inevitably be destroyed by them jointly.

Of course, for these words, Xiong Tuo, the king of Xuancheng, also regarded it as nonsense and let it go.

After a few more drinks, everyone in the room ended their meaningless flattery and began to discuss some meaningful topics.

For example, Cai Hou, the prince of Caixi County, who was still more pragmatic in the eyes of Xiong Tuo, Jun of Xuancheng, asked Shouling Jun Jingshe with a hesitant face, how should the other Japanese armies deal with the fact that the Wei army has gained a firm foothold today.

In response to this problem, Shouling Jun Jingshe soothed: "Although we have not done our best this time, I believe that it can also make Na Ji Run understand our determination to protect the family and defend the country, which can make Na Ji Run have a little scruples." …… As for the ice city. He paused and said sharply: "Although the Wei army has food, they have no firewood. There is food and no firewood, hehe......"

Everyone present understood as soon as they heard it, and they all showed knowing smiles.

yes, what if the Wei army has soldiers and food? The forests in Juyang County have been burned by our side in advance, and your Wei army has no firewood, so you can only gnaw raw rice and drink raw water.

Even the most ignorant people understand that in this kind of cold and freezing weather, gnawing raw rice and drinking raw water will inevitably have a serious impact on the physical condition of the Wei soldiers.

No, Shouling Jun Jingshe then said the strategy for a period of time in the future: Guard!

Because the cold winter is not conducive to marching and fighting, and because the Wei army has been firmly stationed in the land south of the Hun River because of the relationship of that ice city, their Chu army has to expel this Wei army back to the north bank of the Hun River, which is already a very difficult thing, but fortunately, the Shouling Junjingshe destroyed the forests in the area of Juyang County in advance, making it difficult for the Wei army to get firewood for the fire.

Don't think that the most important thing on the battlefield is only food and grass, in fact, water is just as important as firewood for fire.

After listening to the analysis of Shouling Junjingshe, everyone present secretly sneered: Look how long the Wei army can hold on!

In the days that followed, the sky stopped snowing, and the land ushered in a rare sunny day.

It's just that the sun hanging in the sky really has no warmth at all, even if it shines on people's bodies, it can't make people feel the slightest warmth.

Even if there is a little warmth, it is blown away by the cold wind that blows from time to time.

What made the Chu army wonder was that they found that the Wei army's ice city was full of smoke, and it didn't look like it had been cut off at all.

Oh! Perhaps the Wei army was using the cart of firewood when Lord Shouling Junjingshe was attacking the city......

The soldiers of the Chu army will suddenly come to their senses.

So a few days later, the sky above the ice city of the Wei army was still full of smoke.

Could it be that the Wei army was transported from the north bank of the Hun River?

The generals of the Chu army began to be a little suspicious.

After a few days, the smoke of cooking over the ice city of the Wei army continued every day, probably at what time the Chu army buried the pot to cook, and the smoke rose at what time the Wei army was in the ice city.

What's more, even at night, you can still see the fire coming from the direction of the ice city, where is this like a sign that the Wei army has cut off firewood?

What's going on? Where did the Wei army get the firewood?

Even if it is Shouling Junjingshe, he is also a little suspicious at this time.

With suspicion in his heart, he immediately sent several teams of scouts to investigate, and after a long time of inquiry, the scouts came back to report: The Wei army had a grain truck to go back and forth between Bingcheng and Gongxian, but the grain truck was loaded with rice bags, and there was never any firewood.

What the hell is alive......

Shouling Jun Jingshe muttered to himself, he didn't believe that Wei Gongzi Ji Run could still conjure firewood out of thin air.

But the question is, if this is the case, where does the firewood in the ice city of the Wei army come from?

This question not only surprised Shouling Jun Jingshe, but also puzzled the generals on the Chu army's side.

Even, a rumor spread because of this: behind the Wei army, there must be some way of gods, ghosts and monsters to help, previously helped the Wei army build an ice city overnight, and then cast a magical spell to bring in inexhaustible grain, grass and firewood.

Because of this rumor, the morale of the Chu army has plummeted, and every day, you can see some Chu soldiers looking in the direction of the distant building, with a hint of horror.

It's no wonder who makes the Chu people believe in the most miscellaneous and have the most legends of such gods, ghosts and monsters.

In response to this rumor, although Shouling Junjingshe tried its best to curb it, when it came to what method did the Wei army use to cook grain and light a fire for warmth?

There were nearly 300,000 Chu troops in Juyang County, and none of them wanted to understand this matter, which made the Chu army's jealousy of that Wei Gongzi Ji Run deeper and deeper.

At this moment, Zhao Hongrun was in the ice city, looking at the pool full of filth and filth not far away, and secretly sneered.

Cut off our army's firewood? Hey! If you don't have firewood, you can only eat raw rice and drink raw water?

In Zhao Hongrun's field of vision, there was a group of Wei soldiers pouring their excrement into the pool, and on the other side, at the other end of the bamboo pipe connected to the pool, the leader of the Wei army was using a gas released from the pool to boil water and boil rice.

Here's the answer.
