Yun Yang knew that no matter what, he and the Black Flag Army must hold on.

Tens of thousands of troops fought for their lives outside the city of Jianzhou, and the commanders of both armies were worried about how to end this war of attrition.

At this time, Yun Yang moved, and he finally decided to personally lead the last three thousand reserves into the battlefield.

At this time, Guo Rong moved, and he ordered the deputy commander Zhao Kuangyin to lead the last 5,000 soldiers to defeat the Chu army.

Yun Yang led three thousand tigers and rushed into the battlefield shouting "for honor".

Baili Wuji once commented on Yun Yang's knife, "Yun Yang's knife is undoubtedly deadly."

Indeed, when Yun Yang rushed into the battlefield surrounded by his personal guards, it was to see the gods and kill the gods, meet the ghosts and kill the ghosts, and the devastating and decaying ground was to open a bloody path on the dense battlefield.

But it only stopped at the forward of the Zhou army, and it was not allowed to advance an inch.

Because there was a general of the Zhou army in front of him who blocked his way, the general danced with a wrought iron rod so that Yun Yang had a deadly knife, but there was no gap to start.

Once again, the tide of the battle is at a stalemate.

Time passes slowly, and the passage of time is the life of a soldier.

Yun Yang had already felt that the hand wielding the sword was beginning to swell, Yun Yang knew that after the swelling, it should be numb, and it was hopeless to end the battle as soon as possible, and the next thing he could do was to fight for the last drop of blood.

But Yun Yang didn't know that Zhao Kuangyin, who was fighting with him, was remorseful, he knew that this Chu would be so difficult, he should avoid him, where he couldn't kill the enemy, but he encountered this person, he wanted to come out and grab the credit of smashing the opponent's main general, but now he can't enter. If you want to retreat and can't retreat, if you retreat in a hurry, I'm afraid that you will be cut off by the other party to eat the guy.

Guo Rong began to be afraid. He knew that if this stalemate continued, the strength of the Zhou army would be exhausted in this battle, and the Shu State had just been occupied, and the foundation was not stable, once the strength of the army was weakened, the deterrent effect would be reduced. The consequences were unimaginable.

And when Guo Wei sent the order, he also informed that the Chu State had launched an attack on the Zhou State itself, and it was a three-way attack. Although Guo Rong is not worried about the local war, with Guo Wei here, what else is there to worry about, but Guo Rong has to consider his own backup along the way. If the war on home soil is stalemate. Then it is impossible to have reinforcements to Shudi, and the three-way army on his side can only rely on himself.

Guo Rong had no intention of fighting again, and his only wish now was to properly retreat back to Jianzhou City, but how could it be so easy.

At this time, Shu Yongping Jiedu made Cao Guangshi lead an army of 25,000 to fight with the Zhou army's Xiang Xun in Qiongzhou, each with a victory or defeat, and the two sides attacked and defended one in one city. It's a lot of fun.

And Shu Wutai made Han Jixun live up to the title of wise general and led an army of 30,000. At a small cost, he quickly defeated Zan Jurun, captured Meizhou, and then marched towards Chengdu. said that it was a small price, but it was actually 3,700 casualties, but for Han Jixun, this was only a small one, because he defeated Zan Jurun's 10,000 defenders and captured Meizhou.

When these two battle reports reached Guo Rong's ears, Guo Rong knew that Meizhou had fallen, and the Chu army's troops were pointing directly at Chengdu, and even if he succeeded in defending Jianzhou all the way, it was meaningless.

Maybe it's time for the strong man to break his wrist, Guo Rong quickly ordered the whole army to retreat, and the target of the retreat was not Jianzhou, but Chengdu, Guo Rong knew that the price of such a retreat was tragic, so he ordered the deputy commander to make Zhao Kuangyin stay behind.

This command, while correct, is cruel.

Zhao Kuangyin, who received the order, was sad and angry, but the order was an order after all, and he could only fight to the death.

When the Zhou army retreated in an instant, the Chu army quickly moved forward according to inertia, although it was exhausted from fighting, but as soon as the pressure in front suddenly relaxed, it couldn't help but move forward.

Thus, the pursuit began without orders.

Yun Yang was fighting with Zhao Kuangyin at this time, where did he get the kung fu to give the order.

The pursuing Chu soldiers quickly engulfed the lagging Zhou soldiers.

Chased all the way to the outside of Jianzhou City, and was about to retreat later into Jianzhou City, at this time, Guo Rong issued an order to close the city gate, and thousands of Zhou soldiers were blocked out of the city gate and surrounded by the Chu army.

The desperate pleading of the soldiers of the Zhou army reached Guo Rong's ears, and Guo Rong couldn't help but shed tears, perhaps, this is the so-called strong man's broken wrist.

At this time, Guo Rong issued an even more brutal order, ordering the 2,000 soldiers guarding the city of Jianzhou to shoot indiscriminately.

And he led less than 20,000 Zhou troops to retreat to Chengdu.

The soldiers on both sides of the poor city, at this time when their strength was exhausted and they all relied on their subconscious fighting, suddenly encountered arrows rushing in their faces, and the results were self-explanatory.

Thousands of people were killed and wounded in the city of Jianzhou, and if it weren't for the two thousand soldiers defending the city who were demoralized because of the departure of the main general, the number of dead and wounded would have been even greater.

Zhao Kuangyin has already blocked a pillar of incense for a long time, there are no more guards left around him, Zhao Kuangyin doesn't want to die, in his heart, no matter how much honor he has, it is better to live humblely, he still has lofty ideals to complete.

When the soldiers of the Chu army, who were blocked by Jianzhou City, escorted the Zhou prisoners back with the wounded.

Zhao Kuangyin knew that he had been surrounded.

And the 5,000 soldiers he led were already less than half, at this time, he shouted, stepped back, and said, "So-and-so has surrendered." ”

Although Yun Yang was ruthless, he also felt a little sympathy for this Zhou army general who could fight with him for a long time, so he didn't want to cut off his head with a knife, so he accepted Zhao Kuangyin's surrender and began to sort out the team and count the casualties.

……。

Xiang Xun of Qiongzhou heard the news that Meizhou had fallen and Guo Rong had withdrawn to Chengdu, so he naturally had the idea of retreating, so he led the army to withdraw from Qiongzhou to Chengdu.

The three-way defensive army was wiped out all the way, and the two-way lost troops turned back, making the city of Chengdu panic.

In addition, the officials of Shu who secretly sneaked back made waves, and rumors spread.

After Guo Rong and Wang Jing ordered to kill hundreds of people, they forcibly suppressed this evil spirit.

At this time, the armies of Sanlu Chu and Shu successfully met at the west and south gates of Chengdu.

Siege warfare is on the verge of breaking out.

……。

Peng Xiao led the fleet back to Jinling, and this trip to Goryeo caused Chu's national inventory to skyrocket even more.

One million and three thousand taels of gold and fifteen million taels of silver, this kind of huge profit made the monarchs and ministers of Chu worried about how to spend their money.

It is true that once the possession of the value of gold and silver exceeds the possession of the value of commodities, then gold and silver can only be a pile of metals, no longer have monetary properties, and the only thing that can be obtained by pouring a large amount of gold and silver into the market is inflation.
