The Princes Compete for Hegemony Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Troubles of the Princes
Although it is said that the Yuan army is fully transporting siege equipment. But everyone knew that Sun Jun and the Evil Shadow Army would definitely not let them smoothly transport the siege equipment to the City Lord's Mansion to launch an attack. Therefore, in addition to Zhu Ling, Gao Gan, and Tian Chou, who commanded the army to besiege the city lord's mansion. Yan Liang, Wen Chou, and Zhang, who were recognized as the strongest, all joined the ranks of escorting siege equipment. Victory or defeat in this move. They can't tolerate it, they have a little luck!
"Tell the general. I don't know why. Suddenly, the plant grows wildly. Blocked the way! β
Yan Liang and the other three had just escorted the siege equipment into the streets of Changsha City, a few miles away. I received a report from the scout! Such a strange phenomenon may seem strange to others. However, the three of them had seen it as early as the Tiger Prison Pass. Not so surprising. Oddly enough. The city of Changsha is paved with marble. How do plants grow?
When Yan Liang and the others came to the location that the scout said. only to find out that it was the party that had destroyed the siege equipment yesterday. The surface of the marble, which was originally within a radius of two miles, has all been turned into powder. And now it is covered with small saplings. And it's growing like crazy at a rate that's visible to the naked eye. From discovery to seeing. It's tea time. The sapling has become a small tree. The height is almost as tall as the crowd!
I looked at the buildings around me. Narrow streets. There are also dense woods in front. Yan Liang and the three looked at each other. This is in the city. Not in the wild. In addition to walking on the front streets of the city. Those alleys simply don't have enough space for these massive siege machines to move!
Yuan Jun was ready to be attacked. So go all out to guard against the escort. Who knew that the enemy army did not come. But this is how they block the way. Very shameless approach. But it's practical!
"What should I do?"
I took a closer look around the next four corners. Densely packed in the army. I didn't find out who started it. Wen Chou couldn't help but ask helplessly!
"What else can I do? The engineering team was brought in. Cut down these trees! Watch them grow fast. Or are we cutting fast! β
Yan Liang rolled his eyes. Said helplessly. The road ahead is simple. or give up; Either that or overturn buildings or cut down forests. What's the matter. It's easier to cut down these woods than to raze the complexes!
And Zhang next to him frowned and pondered. It doesn't feel good. But I can't figure out why. But he couldn't help but admit it. Agitated Woods. It's a good way to get in the way!
Soon. Tens of thousands of engineers were brought in. Tens of thousands of hands in unison. Impressive felling work began in the city. It's a pity that there are a lot of people. That's the space. Only a thousand people can do it. Others still can't!
Yuan's army transported these siege equipment into Changsha City. Because the walls of the city collapsed. The road is difficult. In total, it took more than three hours. Because these woods are in the way. It took another two hours to clean up. Originally, it was planned that the siege equipment would be able to be transported to the city lord's mansion in half a day at most. It's been most of the day now. It is still a few miles away from the City Lord's Mansion. They didn't just transport siege equipment. Also clean up the corpses on the road along the road......
At this time, it was already three watches. Fortunately, the moon rises high tonight. The stars are dotted. The line of sight is also clear!
"Boom...... Crackling......"
The forest is about to be cut down. A burst of red dots appeared in the sky. Then a burst of fire broke out. The whole city can only be seen in the raging fire. Burning is the trees that are cut down......
Looking at some of the engineers who died in the fire. Yan Liang and the others were completely speechless. At the same time, I regretted it. The last time I was outside of Tiger Prison. The king of Hanzhong was also the first to excite the forest. and then burned with fire. I forgot about it......
"Immortal Master! Immortal Master! Let the Immortal Master put out the fire! β
A certain general of the Yuan army shouted loudly. The "immortal master" in his mouth. Actually, it's just a player who knows Fengyun skills......
However, how could the fire set by Mrs. Zhu Rong be so easily extinguished by ordinary Fengyun skills. More than an hour later. The fire was suppressed. Leave a full scorched ......
By this time, the sky was already cloudy. The Rising Sun......
"Tell the General! Oh no. Enemy reinforcements are coming! β
It took several hours to toss. It is the belligerent Yan Liang and Wen Chou. At this time, I was also depressed. There is no hope. It was supposed to be a planned day. It's been a long time. Even if there is enough time to capture the Castle Lord's Mansion. I guess there aren't that many armament corrections. Will it be recaptured then? Yuan Jun didn't have much confidence in himself......
Just in time for the scouts to report again. Everyone waited and looked up...... Endless. On the quiet Dongting Lake. Dense. Countless warships and warships of all kinds are speeding up. Black pressed a large piece. A black line appeared on the generals of Yuan Jun, who was watching. Get oneβs dander up......
"Is it a war? Is it a refund? The battle is not necessarily lost. But to seize the city of Changsha. Obviously impossible! β
"Withdraw! Evacuate by land to Anseong. Let's take a detour to Jiangxia! β
The generals of Yuan Jun were silent for a while. In the end, Zhu Ling sighed and proposed. At this time, the number of reinforcements from the king of Hanzhong was no less than theirs. There are even more than that. Under the same amount. No one has the confidence to beat the king of Hanzhong. No withdrawal at this time. What else is left......
"The main reinforcements have arrived! The main force of reinforcements! β
A scene on Dongting Lake. Yuan Jun found out. Sun Jun, who had been observing from the pavilion, naturally found out. A burst of cheers suddenly set off......
"Look. The enemy army is beginning to retreat! β
There was another cheer from the pavilion. Everyone found that the Yuan army, which had been frantically besieging, began to retreat in an orderly manner. Because he was afraid of the pursuit of the Shadow Army. And reinforcements have just arrived. Yuan Jun still has time. It's not a rout. Instead, the normal melee class goes first. Swords, shields, and archers are cushioned. Be in apple-pie order......
Looking at the Yuan army slowly retreating like a tide. The City Lord's Mansion suddenly erupted in cheers. Some of them wept with joy. Some of them sat down directly. Fierce battles for days. Exhausted mind and body......
"Uncle! The enemy retreated. Let's go after it! Take advantage of the victory to pursue. Let the enemy army taste our strength! β
Hear the news of the arrival of reinforcements. The shadow turned over and walked up the pavilion. As soon as I entered. I heard Sun Ce shouting excitedly!
"Chase while you win? Did we overcome? What to pursue? β
Sun Ce's voice fell. Everyone present looked at the king of Hanzhong who entered the pavilion. Complicated looks! The evil shadow was also stunned. React immediately. Blurted out a rhetorical question!
"Didn't the enemy retreat? Today we have more than 100,000 troops at hand. And it's all elite. It can definitely inflict heavy damage on the enemy! β
Heard the king of Hanzhong say this. Some people's expressions froze. Frow in contemplation. Sun Ce said loudly with undiminished interest!
"The enemy retreated. Is it our victory? What a logic of this! And where are the hundreds of thousands of elite troops? Why didn't this king see it. I saw only a group of exhausted people. Rejoice in the aftermath of the war! Take Bethfu, for example. How much can you do now? And the enemy troops while retreating. But not panicking. Apparently there are still deployments! Soldiers. Sophistry! If the enemy army retreats to cover up. What if the intention is to fight back in the end? The passage of Changsha City is blocked. It was not easy for the army outside the city to get in. Who knows how long it will take to enter the city? β
The Shadow spread his hands. A series of rhetorical questions blurted out. Sun Ce was speechless. Lips twitch. But he couldn't say anything! In fact, what Sun Ce meant just now. It's to help the Shadow Army in the pursuit. I don't want to rely on the remnants of my own army. Tough with the Shadow Army. Continuing to fight is clearly not a problem. If you can chase and kill. Homeopathic recovery of the lost. That's even more perfect! But the king of Hanzhong obviously did not intend to pursue. What can Sun Ce do?
"Bo Fu! Uncle has a point. The enemy retreated. But there are still hundreds of thousands of troops. It was difficult for troops outside the city to enter the city. The number of troops in the city was small. If you can hold Changsha, you will be satisfied. It is indeed not advisable to pursue! β
General Sun Jun's face changed several times. To each his own mind. The enemy retreated. The king of Hanzhong doesn't seem to be as happy and excited as everyone else! In the end, Chen Xilian smiled and said. As for the phrase "uncle". I don't know if it's for Sun Ce. Or is it what she called herself! The evil shadow is Sun Jian's righteous brother. She is Sun Jian's wife. It is also appropriate to call the evil shadow "uncle"!
"Outside the city. The main thing is to scare off enemy troops. They are all trolls. Land warfare does not have to be the opponent of Yuan's army! β
The evil shadow glanced at the legendary "Wu Guotai" with a smile. He said with a smile. There was a pause. His eyes looked around at everyone meaningfully. Slowly:
"Of course. In order to avoid anyone saying that the king has bad intentions. The dove occupies the magpie's nest. The out-of-town navy will not step into the land! Wait for you to stabilize Changsha. The situation is certain. The king will withdraw his army. You should seize the time to correct and replenish the army. Repair Changsha City. Let's prevent Yuan Jun from making a comeback again! β
The words fell. The Shadow doesn't talk nonsense anymore. nodded at Guo Jia and Jia Xu beside Chen Xipi. He turned around and went downstairs. The Evil Shadow generals present were stunned. Catch up now......
It looks like a decision. The back of the ruthless departure. The faces of the people in the pavilion changed. Each has its own thoughts. Gu Zheng, Zhu Ye and other people who had the biggest opinions at the beginning were even more like pig's liver. Sink your head into the ......
First reaction. The controversy between the chamber and the king of Hanzhong. It was known to the king of Hanzhong. So he's showing an attitude. It means that he doesn't have any thoughts about Jiang Nanzhi. is also expressing his dissatisfaction with the Sun family......
"Hey......"
A coquettish sigh. Chen Xilian turned around and looked at the scenery outside the building again. The once prosperous and glorious city of Changsha. Now the smoke is everywhere. The building is dilapidated. There were less than 100,000 troops left in the city. Look at the cities in the south of the Yangtze River that are still in Yuan Shao's hands. Yuan Shaohe's Fang warlord. Chen Xipian felt powerless in his heart. The future is bleak!
The only hope for the revival of the Sun family. It's that young and proud figure. But now he has been condemned of his sin. And he has made it clear that he has no thoughts about Jiangnan. I won't meddle in Jiangnan affairs......
Can't tie up the king of Hanzhong. The Sun family is hopeless!
But how to tie it? Throughout the ages. Not enough benefits can be drawn. The simplest and most effective way to do this is through marriage. And it is especially effective for the king of Hanzhong......
But the Sun family except for a Sun Ren who is not yet an adult. She was the only one......
There are too many questions. Life is too annoying......
The plump and delicate mature body is confused. Complicated thoughts. Really do that. How do you face the eyes of the world? Let's talk about whether the king of Hanzhong wants to or not. It's hard to say. But he's so......
