Chapter 37: To Fight or Not to Fight

The direct result of the rapid rout of the Qin army was the rapid advance of the Eastern Hu army. However, in just four days, the advance of the Donghu army was only less than fifty miles away from Yongdu City. Yongdu, the old capital of Great Qin, fell into a panic.

"General, can Yongdu be defended. You tell the truth, Ben Hou doesn't care, but the queen mother's phoenix body is precious, and she doesn't dare to make a mistake. "Chang Yu has asked eight times, but she is still chattering. It's very suspicious that he just asks for the sake of asking, and the answer doesn't really matter.

Duke Qi really wanted to kick this fake eunuch to death, if it wasn't for the queen mother behind the curtain. He would really do it, because he found out that Chang Yu was a nasty fly.

"Now Yongdu has gathered more than 100,000 troops, and the garrisons from all walks of life are also on the way. The grain and grass mobilized by the king in Xianyang also arrived in Yongdu. It can be said that the current Yongdu is solid. As long as we hold it for three or two months, the king will be able to raise more than half a million troops. When the time comes, we can take advantage of the superiority in our forces. Gradually reduce the space for the enemy's cavalry to move, and then you can annihilate it in one fell swoop. He had also explained eight times, and now his head was about to burst out of sparks. If Chang Yu dared to ask again, he would definitely step forward and kick this fake eunuch to death.

"In this case, the general is busy with military affairs. The mourning family will not leave you, Yongdu is the old capital of Daqin, and the relationship is very important. Now, the mourning family has handed over this Yongdu city to the general. Zhao Ji's voice came through the curtain. She also heard the impatience in Gong Qi's tone, compared to the six gods and no masters. Zhao Ji still behaves as the mother of Great Qin, and should be calm and composed.

"The last general will leave!" Gong Qi bowed deeply to Zhao Ji behind the gauze curtain, and strode out of the Dazheng Palace. As for Chang Yu, he didn't even owe a glance. Not to mention saying hello.

The Duke of Qi has already walked out of the main hall, and Chang Yu is still chanting words there. Obviously, this Great Qin Changxin Marquis has been frightened by the Donghu people and is completely out of proportion.

"Gong Qi, you said that this Yongdu can't be kept. Ben Hou is second, and the body of the Queen Mother is ...... of ten thousand gold," Chang Yu repeated again. When I looked up, I found that the Duke had already left.

"Well, don't worry. There are more than 100,000 troops guarding it, and this Yongdu City cannot be lost. Zheng'er has already allocated a large amount of grain and grass in Xianyang, and the reserves in the city are sufficient to deal with the crisis in Donghu. What are you panicking about, you're still a man. The gauze curtain fell, and Zhao Ji glanced at Chang Yu with a pair of phoenix eyes. Looking at his appearance, I remembered Yun Yue's unhurried appearance. couldn't help but sigh slowly, who let himself have no part in that rivalry.

"The Queen Mother, the Donghu people have the same temperament as tigers and wolves. In the past few days, several armies have been defeated in a row, and I heard that one after another Qi Gong has lost fifty or sixty thousand horses. The whole Longyou has become a scorched earth, how good is this. How is it good, if Yongdu is lost...... We! ”

"Smack!" A mouth slapped Chang Yu's face, and five finger marks were suddenly left on her fair and handsome face. Chang Yu was stunned by Zhao Ji's slap, and Zhao Ji's slap was too hard. It seems that there is some tire gas, and his face has become very ugly.

"It's a shame that you're still a man, so it's okay to be calm. If you are not at ease, write a letter to the mourning family. You brought it to Pinglianghou, and Yunhou had a lot of elite soldiers under him. It is inevitable that these Donghu people will be eliminated. Zhao Ji said while panting. A pretty face also turned crimson, obviously angry with this Changxin Hou who couldn't help him.

"Queen Mother, why bother. There are more than 100,000 troops led by Duke Qi stationed here, so why bother to invite Yunhou again. Be careful, don't move the tires...... Tire gas! Speaking of Yun Yue, Chang Yu can be described as hateful, fearful and a little jealous and defensive.

Zhao Ji seems to have some kind of indescribable affection for Yun Yue, which is manifested in the fact that when others mention Yun Yue's affairs, Zhao Ji always listens very carefully. I don't understand, or people don't understand what they don't understand. She will also make special inquiries, and over time, the people around her also like to talk about Yunyue.

This made Chang Yu very jealous, especially after learning that Princess Zhang Jia gave birth to a son to Yun Yue. Zhao Ji was even more irritable and smashed the bowls, and even the minions who were more faceless in her on weekdays were beaten.

Chang Yu waited carefully for several days, which made the Queen Mother's attitude a little better.

"Humph! You are a little bit promising, like Yunhou who dominates the world. The mourning family still needs to be idle! Zhao Ji pointed at Chang Yu's nose irritably and scolded, knowing that she was out of breath before letting the palace people help her back to the apse.

Chang Yu was scolded by Zhao Ji, and seemed to be in a much better mood in a panic. glared at the palace attendant next to him, and saw that everyone lowered their heads to avoid his eyes. Only then did he throw up his sleeves and leave, and he had to hurry up and coax this ancestor to do so, otherwise life would definitely be difficult.

"Hahaha! I didn't expect the Qin people to fight so much, I knew that we would go to Pingliang to break the blood flow. I should have come to Guanzhong a long time ago to see this thing. Lai Lat also looked at the mountain of loot first, and smiled from ear to ear. Those Donghu leaders, elders, and patriarchs also have a virtue before Qilak.

In the eyes of the Donghu people, Guanzhong is really too rich. Although the Qin army was implementing the strategy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness along the way, the speed of the Donghu people's march was too fast. Many places were occupied by the Donghu army before they could be destroyed. With the occupied territory, there will naturally be booty, and the cloth that the Donghu people lack. food, as well as all kinds of utensils and supplies. Anyway, the Donghu people are poor, and they will rob whatever they see. In terms of robbery, the Donghu people are quite hungry. Even some people's toilets have been moved back. Because, they don't know what it's for.

"Yes! We have come to the right place in this trip, and now we have to discuss with you what to do next. In front of it is Yongdu, the old capital of Daqin, and I heard that although it is an abandoned capital. But there was a queen mother living there, and the city was very rich. It's much better than the poor countryside we plundered, but there are more than 100,000 Qin troops stationed there. Although the city wall is not as tall as Pingliang, it is much larger than the small county towns we passed by. ”

"Not only that, but the Qin troops who withdrew from all over the country have entered Yongdu one after another. This is a difficult bone to gnaw, do you say we still fight Yongdu? Lao Jin saw Murong Tuoba finish speaking, and hurriedly added when he saw the appearance of everyone. He didn't want to mourn the mistakes of the last time, although the Donghu people fought very well in the field. But in the face of the tall city, there is no way to do it.

This is also something that cannot be helped, and the soft power of science and technology cannot keep up. I can only look at the strong and majestic city walls, and sigh at the gold and silver beauties inside. (To be continued.) )
