Although the rebel army suffered heavy casualties in the first battle of Tongyu County, the grain and grass of the Divine Cult Army, the results were undoubtedly rich, and the grain and grass materials of the Divine Cult Army to deal with the winter battle were almost destroyed, and the blow to the religious army like the Immortal Sect was extremely huge.

After all, the Divine Cult Army is not the army of the Great Light Imperial Court, and Wu Huan wants to urgently prepare the food and grass needed by tens of thousands of troops, which is not an overnight thing.

The top brass of the Immortal Sect tried to conceal such a fact, but such a thing as eating was actually sent to the mouth to fill the stomach, and there was little to eat at one meal, and no one at all, no matter how stupid people were, they knew that there was something wrong with the army's food and grass.

Perhaps the mad cultists of the Immortal Sect dared to recite the Tao Sutra and threw themselves into the fire naked, which was a sign of faith, even if such faith was not convincing. There are no immortals in this world, and everyone has to eat, including these fanatical gods.

Hunger is sometimes worse than death, death is only for a moment, and there is no pain, and hunger is death in agony.

Therefore, after the news of the destruction of grain and grass in Tongyu County spread, the rout of the Immortal Sect was faster than anyone could have imagined.

When Yang Yi and the others arrived at Huanxiang Mountain, there was only one place left here.

In order to delay the Shu army's response to Yang Yi and others, Wu Huan ordered the Divine Cult Army, which was firmly guarding Huanxiang Mountain, to rush out of the fortifications and engage in a hard-to-head battle with the Shu army.

Shamanaigu did not panic, and quickly changed the rear army to the front army, and put on a posture to start a three-day and three-night battle with the Divine Cult Army.

Maybe Shama Naigu thinks that he can't retreat at this moment, because retreat can easily turn into a rout, or maybe Shama Naigu is full of confidence in Yang Yi and thinks that he will definitely be able to escape.

In short, three days later, the news from Tongyu County came, and the Divine Sect Army unexpectedly began to retreat, they didn't even dare to enter Huanxiang Mountain, and retreated directly to Qianzhou City.

Such an order is actually absurd and helpless, sometimes the courage of a commander is often reflected in a thought, although Shama Naigu is anxiously worried about the safety of Yang Yi and others, but still calmly responds to the battle, and the general of the Divine Cult Army chose to retreat after learning the news of Tongyu County's loss.

Shamanaigu was overjoyed when he heard the news of the sudden retreat of the Divine Cult Army, although he didn't know the reason for the retreat of the Divine Cult Army, but his intuition told Shamanaigu that Yang Yi must have made some big move in the enemy's rear.

"Chase! Chase to death! "When Shamanagu found out that the retreat of the Cult Army was in disarray, he immediately issued a death order.

In two days, the Shu army rapidly advanced more than 100 miles, and the Divine Cult army, after a few slight resistances, retreated quickly into a rout until they fled.

When the 40,000 Divine Cult Army was dead and scattered, and only four or five thousand people remained, Shama Naigu finally ordered the Shu army to stop the pursuit, because the scout came to report that a very large city appeared in front of it, and the remnants of the Huanxiang Mountain Divine Cult Army had fled in.

Shama Naigu came to the mountainside and stopped to look, and said in surprise and joy: "Qianzhou City! ”

Shama Naigu immediately ordered the army to be repaired, preparing to conquer the largest and most important city in Qianzhou, on the other hand, there was news that scouts and spies were investigating Yang Yi and others, which was the only thing he was worried about, even if he blindly believed that Yang Yi could get out of danger, but the sword on the battlefield had no eyes, and personal life and death often depended on God's will.

Of course, Yang Yi did not disappoint Shamanaigu, and in the early morning of the second day, Yang Yi led more than 100 people to finally meet Shamanaigu.

"Your grandfather's! I thought you were dead! ”

Shamanaigu was a bear hug when he met, and he was so excited that he didn't care about the etiquette between the lords and ministers.

Yang Yi was a little out of breath when he was hugged by Shama Naigu, signaled him to let go quickly, and said with a smile: "A person like me who has a hard life can't die if he wants to." ”

Shama Naigu looked at Yang Yi and saw that his face was not very good, obviously not as light as he said along the way.

Yang Yi sighed and simply told what happened to his group.

Shama Naigu's face was solemn, he admired these people in the rivers and lakes very much, and pointed in the direction of Qianzhou City and said: "Qianzhou City is in front, big hatred and small hatred, forget it for them!" ”

Yang Yi asked, "How is the situation in Qianzhou City?" ”

Shama Naigu shook his head and said coldly: "The situation is not very good, according to the report of the secret agent, there are about more than 20,000 defenders of the Divine Sect Army in Qianzhou City, and there are thousands of soldiers from the Qianzhou Prefecture, and the city is high and thick, making it difficult to attack.

In the past two days, I have been sending people to the city to call for battle, but the gate of Qianzhou City is closed and there is no response. ”

Yang Yimo calculated the time, according to the distance, Wu Huan should have returned to Qianzhou City, if this guy is just defending behind closed doors, then the Shu army that lacks siege equipment may be difficult to overcome.

The best way is naturally to besiege but not attack, the food and grass of the Divine Cult Army are gone, and the Divine Cult Army's grain in Qianzhou City can't last long, but... Yang Yi couldn't afford to wait for two months.

"Is there any news from Li Cen in Suzhou?" Yang Yi asked.

Shamanaigu nodded, and said with some concern: "Five days ago, the dark messenger of Zhuzhou came with news that Li Cen had conquered the Zhuzhou Mansion and was cleaning up the remnants of the defenders of Zhuzhou, and it was estimated that it would not be long before he would march west to Qianzhou. ”

Yang Yi rubbed his lightly clenched fist when he heard this, and said in a deep voice: "If Li Cen enters Qianzhou, we haven't been able to conquer Qianzhou City, I'm afraid we will have to make wedding dresses for others." ”

Shamanagu frowned and said, "Ten days, we only have ten days. Ten days later, Li Cen's Linjiang army will definitely move westward, and he is more anxious than we are. ”

Ten days seems like a long time, you can eat dozens of meals and sleep ten nights, but for conquering a state-level fortified city, the time is really short.

Yang Yi slapped the table and said coldly: "Immediately order the rear army to supervise the construction of siege equipment, and by tomorrow afternoon at the latest, we must launch an attack, and take Qianzhou City at all costs!" ”

After preparing for so long and sacrificing so much, it was almost a kick in the door, and Li Cen must not be allowed to pick up this big bargain.

As soon as the order was issued, the real Shu army began to be busy with preparations, but fortunately, the forests in the south of Daguang were dense, and you could find many materials suitable for making ladders, rushing cars, towers and other siege equipment by going around the forest casually.

In the afternoon of the next day, after a busy day and night, although the preparations were still insufficient, there was no time for me, and more than 10,000 Shu troops slowly unfolded, marched in formation, and came to the south gate of the towering Qianzhou City.

The brutal battle of Qianzhou City has finally begun, and the mountain army will also face a real test since its establishment. …
