Watching the long dragon-like procession pouring out of the city, marching towards the distance with high spirits, all the officials of the Xian Empire breathed a sigh of relief, and after paying a small price, Li Xin finally led the expeditionary force to set off and went to the Hanyang Royal City to relieve the siege.

These Xian Imperial officials had smiles on their faces, but they all secretly cursed in their hearts, greeting Li Xin's ancestors for eight generations, wishing him to kill Huang Taiji and defeat the Jin soldiers, and at the same time wishing him to be killed by the Jin army, it is best that the two sides fight to the death.

The contract signed by the two parties, they are not worried that Li Guozhu will trouble them at all, the countermeasures have already been thought of, it is the chief official of Yizhou City who signed the contract, and Li Guozhu can completely dump the blame on the grounds of not knowing, refuse to recognize the validity of the contract, and want to find the chief official of Yizhou City to perform the contract? I'm sorry, I've been transferred out a long time ago, and the new chief officer won't admit it, let's talk about it, it's not like it's over in the end, hehe.

Li Xin had long expected this possibility, and it was very likely, he was not afraid of being repaid by few people at all, this happened to be an excuse for the expeditionary force to rely on Yizhou City, to see who calculates whom? Fight with this commander, you are still a little too tender.

He is not worried about the affairs of Yizhou City at all, nor is he worried that the Jin army will make a comeback and recapture Yizhou City, Yizhou City is now a transit point for military supplies, and a large number of military materials have been accumulated in the city, and there must be heavy guards, so he left a full 10,000 troops, half veterans, half recruits, and half of the warships of the Liaodong Naval Division on the Liao River can be reinforced at any time, although the Marine Corps of the Naval Division only has a strength of 2,000 people, but it has been fighting with the Jin Army all the year round, all of them are experienced elites, and they can't hold the city of Yizhou, He would cut off his head and apologize to the emperor.

Li Xin is not worried about fighting a field battle with the main force of the Jin army, he is confident that he will defeat Huang Taiji's 100,000 army, the only headache is how to calculate the time to maximize the benefits, if the time to kill the Hanyang Royal City is early, it will definitely not be able to get half of the benefits, and if it is too late, he is worried that the Jin army will snatch all the gold, silver and jewelry and transport it away, the most suitable time is that the Jin army has just finished robbing the whole city, and before he has time to transport it away, he led the army into the city, but this time is too difficult to grasp, this is the reason why he frowned all the way to the march.

"It's hard, it's too hard." Several Mu officials shook their heads, there are too many factors, even if Zhuge Wuhou, who is close to the demon in wisdom, is alive, I am afraid that he will not be able to calculate this point in time.

Unable to accurately calculate the time point, and worried that the royal city of Hanyang would be broken by the Jin army too early, Li Xin could only lead the army to hurry, but the infantry of the expeditionary force was all in the same way, and it was estimated that it would take about 20 days to reach Hanyang at the earliest, and this had to be without any obstacles or accidents, and the journey was smooth.

During the march of the expeditionary force, there were indeed a few erratic Jin army cavalry around to attack from time to time, but the expeditionary force was not the old army before, no matter which direction the Jin army attacked and disturbed, they were greeted by waves of dense bullets, and there was no chance to rush closer, and there was a reconnaissance company in front of them to search and advance, and there was no chance to ambush.

During this period, the offensive and defensive battles of the Hanyang King City reached a climax, with the eight reinforcements of Jeolla Province and Chungcheong Province arrived at King Qinwang successively, and the main force of Huang Taiji under the city of Hanyang started a fierce battle, although the reinforcements of King Qin of the Eight Roads were heroic, they did kill some of the famous generals and warriors of the Jin Army, causing certain losses to the Jin Army, but the Iron Cavalry of the Jin Army deserved the title of invincible field warfare, the Iron Cavalry charged from both wings, rushed to kill several times, chiseled through the formation of the fresh army, killed the corpses of the fresh army all over the field, the blood flowed like a river, and the army could not be defeated.

After Huang Taiji defeated the Eight Dao reinforcements, he re-besieged the city and prepared to re-attack the Hanyang Royal City, Li Guozhu sent officials out of the city to sue for peace and discuss surrender, playing a strategy of delaying the army, Huang Taiji knew that time was pressing, but still gave Li Guozhu two days to consider.

The Xian army used this precious two days to desperately collect all kinds of weapons to defend the city, tear down the door panels, demolish the beams of the houses, tear down the walls and other things to act as rolling stones, rushing to make arrows, collecting vegetable oil, meat oil, making oil cans and other weapons to defend the city.

The yellow soup itself has countless bacteria, after boiling the boiling hot yellow soup when the head is drenched, stained with the skin, it must be ulcerated and inflamed, the light one will rip the meat, the heavy one will amputate the limbs, otherwise it will be a life, it can be called the ancient version of the biological and chemical weapon. However, there are two sides to everything, the lethality of this biological weapon of yellow soup is indeed terrifying, but you have to enjoy the aroma of wanting to die first, many people vomit so much that they even vomit when they drink water, they are so hungry that their hands and feet are weak, killing a thousand enemies, and also losing a thousand.

Although the reinforcements of the Eight Daoqin Kings were defeated, the soldiers and civilians in Hanyang City were still holding on, and the belief that supported them to hold on was that the Ming Dynasty was on the way to Hanyang, and it would arrive soon, and they only needed to hold on for another half a month to break the siege.

As soon as the two days passed, the gate of Hanyang City was not opened, Huang Taiji knew that he had been deceived, and he was angry and ordered the army to re-attack the Hanyang City City.

The soldiers and civilians of Hanyang have been holding on for half a month, and the reserve of stone rolling wood, arrows and other weapons to defend the city has been almost consumed, and they have no choice but to sacrifice their yellow soup killing weapon, a scoop of hot yellow soup splashed down, the golden soldiers who climbed the city were scalded and howled, and fell down the city, for a while, the fragrance of the yellow soup that the Chinese people wanted to get drunk filled the whole city inside and outside, and even the golden soldiers outside the city also vomited, and had to cover their mouths and noses with wet towels soaked in water. But when I saw the food, I couldn't help but vomit.

The back camp is full of wounded soldiers, and the soldiers are so busy that all the wounded soldiers who were scalded by the yellow soup have blisters in the wounds, and the pain is hot, Lang Zhong the blisters with a needle, sprinkles with medicinal powder, and bandages them casually, this kind of scalding is pediatric, and those who are cut by swords or shot by arrows need emergency treatment, and there are not too many soldiers in the army, how can there be kung fu to care about these pediatric injuries.

The wounded soldier who was scalded by the yellow soup was just a hot pain, and it didn't look like a big deal on the surface, but at night, the wound felt itchy and unbearable, so it was relieved by scratching with his hands, but the wound was also infected and expanded, and the serious scratching was blurred with flesh and blood, which frightened all Lang Zhong, and he had to urgently operate overnight to rip off the flesh at the wound, or amputate his limbs.

Although all Lang Zhong tried his best to rescue and was tired of lying on the workstation post, there were still many wounded soldiers who had a high fever and talked in the next few days, and finally hung up with two kicks, and the mortality rate and amputation rate were higher than those wounded soldiers who were injured by swords, so that Huang Taiji and all the generals of the Jin Army were so angry that they gritted their teeth and swore that they would slaughter the city for three days after breaking the city.

After a long march of twenty days, the expeditionary force finally reached the vicinity of Hanyang City, but it had to break through the three Tumu forts of the Jin army before it could fight a decisive battle with the main army of Huang Taiji.
