Chapter 693: A gap in the heart
The thick bloody atmosphere under the sun spread, and in the sound of gold, countless Qing, Xu and Guangling soldiers returned their original ways. In the past few days, the demon soldiers have been attacking Xuzhou City day and night, and the soldiers on both sides are tired.
Although Tao Qian was surprised, he still fought hard.
Fortunately, with the help of Qingzhou soldiers and horses, they finally survived these days. The situation in the world is tilting towards Yuan Yuzhou's side, once Qingzhou, the eastern part of Jizhou and Yuzhou are freed up, it will be the end of the demon clan.
The thought fell in his mind, and Tao Qian sat in the lobby of the state pastor's mansion, looking around at the civil and military forces.
"Do you have a good way to retreat from the enemy?"
The voice surrounded his ears, and a famous military general lowered his head all of them. Xuzhou's morale is low and all are tired, but the demon soldiers are just the opposite, and their momentum is unstoppable. If it weren't for the 20,000 Qingzhou soldiers and horses coming to help in time, I am afraid that they would have been lost for a long time at this time.
"The Demon Clan is Powerful"
"My subordinates think it's better to wait and see what happens"
Lu Zhu said to Tao Qian, who was sitting on the main seat.
Tao Qian's eyes showed an unwilling look, but thinking of the current situation in Xuzhou, he could only let out a long sigh in his heart. Are you really old? In the face of the demon clan's soldiers, they were defeated one after another, so that there is now a disaster.
At the beginning, the main force of the battle with Yangzhou Overseas Protectorate was greatly damaged, and Guangling County was lost. Since then, the situation with the Yangzhou demon clan has changed, and it is in a passive position. After that, the demon clan trained 30,000 iron horsemen in Guangling County, and they could only watch, but they had no means to restrain them.
Not long ago, the Guangling cavalry went north, tempting our Xuzhou troops to gallop long distances to help Xia Pi County, and more than 10,000 soldiers and horses were wiped out under the First World War. As a last resort, he could only ask for help from Qingzhou, but fortunately, 20,000 soldiers and horses from Qingzhou came to help, so he could hold Xuzhou City.
It is precisely because of this series of defeats in the war against the demon clan that the soldiers in Xuzhou talked about the demon change.
"The city of Xuzhou is in danger, how to wait and see what happens?"
"With General Qingzhou Guan here, my Xuzhou City should be impregnable"
Lu Zhu said to Tao Qian
Tao Qian was stunned for a moment, and swallowed the words on his lips stiffly. These words do not mean Mi Zhu alone, but represent the mentality of a group of people. After all, Qingzhou appeared in front of the soldiers in Xuzhou with a saving attitude. In this series of battles with the Guangling Demon Cavalry, it is said that he has gained the favor of many soldiers. coupled with the scene in the long river of fate, he was full of jealousy.
Do you need to give the position of Xuzhou Mu to the emperor like the scene in fate? But can the emperor keep Xuzhou? Can my son and my family get preferential treatment? At least the answer given in fate is not very ideal.
And at this time, he was strong and strong, and he was not terminally ill because of excessive worry.
"Qingzhou soldiers and horses are guest troops after all, don't you rely too much on them?"
Zang Ba asked Lu Zhu.
Moose Zhu replied.
"At this time, in addition to relying on General Qingzhou Guan's headquarters, what can we do? Could it be that General Zang can lead the soldiers and horses in the city to defend Xuzhou City at his feet? Only by working together can the two states hold Xuzhou, otherwise once they are divided by the demon clan, it will be too late to regret it."
"That being said, it's ......"
Zang Ba could only sigh in his heart, Xuzhou soldiers and horses are only 20,000, how can they resist the demon soldiers like tigers and wolves.
All the generals looked at each other, all showing desperate expressions.
"Newspaper"
"Qiyu State Pastor"
"Langya National Emergency"
A voice rang out inside the tent, and a soldier hurried in. The sweat on his forehead had not yet been wiped off, and it was obvious that the matter was urgent.
The generals all looked at the soldiers, and then moved to the bamboo slips he was holding. Langya country? What can happen to Langya at this time? If there is a change, wouldn't it be ......
Everyone's hearts hung in the air.
Tao Qianda hurriedly got up and walked towards the soldier, then reached out and snatched the bamboo slip into his hand and quickly opened it.
"Bang"
When his gaze crossed over the last word, Tao Qian threw it on the ground with all his might.
With the crisp sound, the bamboo slips scattered in all directions. Endless fear, along with the scattered pieces of bamboo, shrouded everyone's hearts. Could it be that there has really been an irreversible change in Langya Country, otherwise why would the state pastor be like this?
"Guo Da Fat's fang is too rampant, and he actually divided tens of thousands of troops to go south to Langya Country"
In a short sentence, it is no less than a bolt from the blue. There is a saying that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and it was not the current Xuzhou. The Guangling cavalry has not yet retreated, and the overseas soldiers of the demon clan are actually rolling in from the north.
Tens of thousands of troops gathered, like a big mountain, pressing down on everyone's hearts.
"General Guan asks to see"
"Please"
"No"
A soldier replied to Tao Qian.
Tao Qian quickly suppressed the anger in his heart and looked out the door. At this time, Guan Yu must have come for Guo Dapang to go south to Langya State, as the chief general of the Qingzhou reinforcements, his choice will determine the survival of Xuzhou.
"I've seen Taozhou Mu"
"I just got the news that Guo Dapang, the governor of the overseas protectorate of the Yangzhou Demon Clan, divided 20,000 troops from Yi'an to Langya in Xuzhou. The situation was critical and the two demon soldiers could not form a flanking attack, so Guan wanted to lead the Qingzhou soldiers and horses to gallop north overnight. Behead the head of this demon dragon, with the military might of Zhuangqing and Xu Liangzhou"
Guan Yu said to Tao Qian, and his tone did not have the slightest hint of discussion.
Tao Qian and the generals of Xuzhou secretly frowned, showing displeasure one by one. But thinking of the combat effectiveness of Guan Yu and the soldiers under his command, he didn't show it.
Qingzhou wants to give up Xuzhou City, can it hold this city with only Xuzhou's soldiers and horses? The answer is no.
So what is their intention in doing so? Judging from the current situation, Guan Yu's department went north to Langya Kingdom, can Guo Dapang resist it? In the face of the Qingzhou Emperor, the more than 10,000 white horse servants in the east of Jizhou, and Guan Yu's headquarters from the north of Xuzhou City, he could resist such a big offensive? At that time, didn't the Guangling cavalry want to attack Xuzhou City frantically, and how could the 20,000 soldiers in the city survive?
In other words, as long as Guan Yu's troops go north, the Xuzhou forces led by themselves will be the first to be out. The demon clan wins Xuzhou and is owned by the demon clan, but Qingzhou does not lose its ability. On the contrary, Qingzhou won and swept Xuzhou City and Donghai County, collected Guangling, and Xiapi peeped into the south of the Yangtze River.
It's a good calculation.
Tao Qian basically understood the pros and cons in the blink of an eye, as the lord of a state, how could he be a fuel-efficient lamp. No matter what kind of mind Guan Yu is in, as long as he does this, he will have such plans and motives.
Can you just stop it yourself? Thinking of this, a sense of powerlessness came to my heart.
"Someone Coming"
"In"
"Send Wantan of fine wine to the Qingzhou military camp, and wish General Guan a victory in the north"
"No"
The soldier guarding the door replied loudly.
Guan Yu was overjoyed in his heart, seeing Tao Qian so bold, so he said loudly.
"Xie Zhou Shepherd Wine"
"After Guan kills Guo Dapang, he will destroy the demon clan with Xuzhou Paoze"
Pride pervades the room.
Tao Qian deliberately showed a look of concern and asked Guan Yu.
"I don't know when the soldiers and horses of Xuzhou will go north to aid Langya?"
"After the speed of the soldiers, one hour later, they will set up camp and go to Langya country"
"In that case, I won't bother General Guan"
"Farewell"
Guan Yu bowed to Tao Qian, and then walked out of the gate.
Looking at the back in the distance, all the Xuzhou civil and military forces looked heavy. General Zang Ba is right, Qingzhou is a guest army, how can he completely pin his hopes on them.
