"We ...... Can we still withstand such a terrible enemy......"

With hesitation and uneasiness, Fenter Babi felt his lips tremble, and he could have taken a lot of willpower to calm himself down before he could speak, but when his eyes swept over the scene in front of him, he realized that his previous efforts had completely failed, which made him feel doubly frustrated.

However, it is clear that Fenter Babi is not the most unbearable one, and in fact some of the ministers behind him are no longer able to complete the road on their own, and need the support of others to keep up with their king.

For what was now unfolding in front of them was a huge gap that could hold about twenty or thirty people, surrounded by scattered gravel and loess, and marks of heavier colors, and they didn't want to think about what they belonged to before, because that would only make them even less appetizing, and even make their breakfast appear in places other than their stomachs.

And what worries them even more is that there are two similar places, about the same width as here. This result was tantamount to a resounding slap in the face to the leaders of the kingdom who had been full of ambition before the war, and woke them up from their otherwise relaxed atmosphere, and then they were quickly sent into the abyss of despair, and it seemed that it was still a fairly smooth one-way street.

In fact, they had not worked hard, and although the first breach appeared much earlier than Fenter Babi had expected, he still showed the steadiness and decisiveness of a mature leader, and transferred the materials and manpower that had already been prepared to the gap. At the same time, the army was ordered to stand by in the vicinity.

Although the night battle will cause a lot of uncertainties, but because various plans have been prepared, Fenter Babi's heart is not too panicked, the only thing that feels helpless is that he may have to pay a terrible price to wait for the arrival of reinforcements.

Losses much more than he had expected were likely to make the fighting Qiuzi not only lose the strength to continue expanding, but also could become a "delicacy" in the eyes of other neighboring countries, perhaps he should have made a few more sets of plans to deal with various possible situations after the war, such as provoking the relationship between Shule and Yanqi, and then provoking a war between Shule and Khotan.

Damn the Han Chinese!

In the bottom of his heart, Fendt Babi cursed the Han Chinese who attacked them with the most vicious words.

It's just that what Fenter Babi didn't expect was that the measures he carefully prepared didn't seem to have any effect, and a "stone rain" that was not afraid to plug the gap at all caused heavy casualties to those people and volunteers who lacked protection, and then a "heavenly thunder" not only opened the gap. And it has completely turned it into an area where people dare not come forward to talk about it.

Although there is some helplessness. But Fenter Babi didn't pay too much attention to it, because he also knew that since the gap had been opened, it was indeed impossible for the Han people to let this gap be plugged by themselves, and such an encounter was also expected by him.

Even when the Han army then threw two "heavenly thunderbolts" into the gap, killing hundreds of soldiers, the old king, although he was a little painful, still felt a feeling of "everything is under control". Because such losses are already in his calculations.

It wasn't long after he gave the order to the army to defend the gap even at every cost. He had to spit out a mouthful of old blood. Because the Han Chinese, who did not play their cards according to common sense, diverted the target of the attack and began to bombard another wall, while the gap was not attacked at all. It's as if the Han Chinese have lost interest there.

What's going on?!

Despite this resentment, Fenter Babi still lost no time in investing in the repair work of the breach, and this time, the Han army seemed to have little interest in destroying their repair work, so it went smoothly.

So one of them repaired on one side, and the other chiseled the wall on the other, and then went back to loosen the soil for the repair work and gained some experience by the way, so that half a night passed, and the Qiuzi people not only did not plug the gap that appeared at the beginning, but also made the gap in the wall from one to three.

After doing all this work, the Han people seemed to go back to make up for sleep, but the Qiuzi people could not do this, and they could do nothing but mobilize all their forces to repair the city walls without knowing whether it was useful or not.

You said to send troops to the camp of the Han people for a night raid?

Such a crazy idea would be of great benefit if it could succeed, but only if it could succeed.

Fintbabi didn't believe that the other party's commander was a careless fool, and judging from all the actions of the night, Fenter Babi would rather believe that the other party was arranging a big conspiracy and was waiting for him to jump into it.

What could be done in half a night when it was necessary to leave enough men to guard against a possible attack by the Han Chinese?

The answer is: there is no other result than a slight difficulty for the attacking side.

After all, there are only 100,000 people in the entire Qiuzi Country, and the total number of soldiers and civilians in Yancheng City at this time is only 80,000, and many people are unwilling to approach the gap that has been blasted out for various reasons, or are ready to escape at any time, and the progress of the work can be imagined.

So, a very practical problem was put in front of Fenter Babi Mud.

Can this city still be held? Will you be able to hold out until reinforcements from other countries arrive?

Even more desperately, will the Han people take this opportunity to wipe out the troops of several major powers in the entire Western Regions?

Although nearly a hundred years have passed since Ban's several wonderful thousand-mile raids, they are still in the ears and pen tips of the leaders of the Western Regions, and the Han people can completely use a part of the troops to contain themselves and divide their troops to meet those reinforcements.

In fact, even if the Han army divides its troops, as long as the remaining troops are willing to pay a sufficient price, it will not be difficult to take Yancheng.

Yancheng's greatest reliance is on its strong walls and sufficient material reserves, and the latter also needs to rely on the former's storage.

It's only been a day. Even for the Han army, it only took them half a night to break the pillar that the Qiuzi people relied on the most, so it is no wonder that they felt decadent.

"้™›xiร ...... Whether it is a battle or a surrender, please make a decision as soon as possible. โ€

"But if we surrender, won't it be the same as before, and do you still want to go back to the way it used to be?"

Although it was a question sentence, it was in an affirmative tone, and Fenter Babi, the king of the turtles, looked a little excited.

In his opinion, no matter what aspect he considers, there is no need for the current Qiuzi to surrender.

In fact, most of the Han army on the other side had the same idea.

"Looks like the effect is mediocre. Should we take down the outermost wall first and then discuss other issues? โ€

Li Shushi set his eyes on Ban Fu beside him and Jia Xu behind him.

"I think I need to play a dozen as well. If we can show them our power, some things are easier to talk about. โ€

Ban Fu nodded, agreeing with Li Shushi's suggestion, and at the same time set his eyes on Jia Xu, who was standing in Li Shushi's shadow on the other side.

Although the time spent together is not too long. But for this talented man who is famous in the West. Ban Fu is very recognized. The other party does possess abilities commensurate with his fame, nay, it could even be said that his abilities far outweigh the fame he has now gained.

That's exactly what happened. For Jia Xu's opinion, Ban Fu also attaches great importance to it.

"I also agree with the two of them, but the reasons are a little different."

"You don't want to take the opportunity to get rid of anyone again?"

Jia Xu hidden in the shadows is very much like the dog-headed military advisor under those villain bosses, and his ideas are often more like the demeanor of a villain than his image, although a good leader should be able to control light and darkness at the same time, but because Jia Xu's ability is too strong, and there is no guy like Cheng Yu who is a little brighter to synthesize, so Li Shushi feels that he is now more and more like a big demon king, and there are all kinds of "dark four heavenly kings" around him.

Well, in fact, Cheng Yu is also a ruthless character, when he really needs to start, ordinary people really don't have the courage to do it, after all, the idea of the person in history should be the lowest in modern society, and it should be a crime against humanity that should be tortured by the top ten.

"It seems that the lord and Xu see a little bit the same. Don't you think that at this time, the people who can still have the courage to rush to the front line to fight against us should be the strongest resistance spirit and the most loyal group of people to King Qiuzi. As long as this group of people dies on the battlefield, I believe that it will be much easier to control Qiuzi in the future, I don't know what the two of you think. โ€

"I like Wenhe's strategy, and thinking about it is indeed the best choice."

To Li Shushi's surprise, Ban Fu seemed to appreciate Jia Xu's idea very much. Although Li Shushi knew that the old man in front of him was indeed not a soft-hearted guy, he was a little surprised by such an unscrupulous appearance.

"So it is said that the state pastor has Wen He's assistant, no wonder there is such an achievement, Wen He should be very comfortable under the state pastor."

"The lord is benevolent, and there are some things that should not be handled by the lord. Besides, although there are many transgressions, but they are not punished every time, they still trust the same and give them heavy power, how can Xu not be grateful and swear to die to repay it. โ€

So Jia Xu children's shoes, your acting skills have broken through the sky.

The envoy sent to persuade him to surrender finally brought back the news that Li Shushi had expected a long time ago, and this battle did seem inevitable.

And the most ji1iรจ place in the battle is naturally the few gaps that have been opened.

"The bravery of the Xianbei people is indeed amazing, if it weren't for their own chaos, we would have been so easy to deal with the situation in the entire Western Regions now. But even so, the state pastor was able to defeat it many times, which really made the old man admire. โ€

Although the gap in the wall was like a large millstone, the troops of both sides were constantly swept in, crushed, leaving blood and mutilated corpses, but one side was desperately resisting in order to defend its homeland and the other side to get rid of the shackles on its body.

However, as time went on, the balance of war tipped more and more in favor of the coalition forces.

In fact, with the Xianbei soldiers of more than 10,000 people, and the support of various flying props in the rear, although the battle line was slow, it was steady and never retreated. Especially at the central gap of Li Shushi's golden fire cannon, the battle line has advanced to the city, and Li Shushi can even send people to fight for that section of the city wall to gain the advantage of the high ground.

"Looks like this battle will be over tonight."

With Hua Xiong being the first to climb the outer wall, it was only a matter of time before the outer wall fell into the hands of the coalition forces, and without the support of the high point of the outer wall, Qiuzi's army could only gradually retreat to the second wall.

Of course, such an approach would directly lead to the loss of the common people of the outer city and the materials stored there.

In other words, by this time, victory or defeat was no longer a problem, the only question was only how long the Guizi people could hold out and how much battle damage they could inflict on the coalition forces. Maybe there's another one. That's how Li Shushi should punish them.

"Originally, I wanted to leave that King of Guizi a nominal seat. Now it doesn't seem to be needed, isn't it Wenhe. โ€

"I think it's better to keep that king if we can, not only will it allow us to pacify the kingdom of Qiuzi more quickly, but more importantly, as long as the king is still sitting in that seat. There will always be restless guys jumping out. We just have to keep an eye on the king. Collect the net regularly, I believe there should be a good harvest. โ€

"This must be done by Zhang Tai and his son, their father and son are the best at doing this kind of thing."

Mr. Ban Fu. Are you sure you're not a high-level black?,Sure enough, personal grudges or something aren't so easy to unravel.ใ€‚

The war has come to this point, and King Qiuci is not the kind of guy who is obsessed, although he is unwilling, but he also knows very well what the consequences will be if he holds on, he simply accepts Li Shushi's surrender conditions, anyway, there is nothing difficult for him to accept, including Qiuci as a county-level administrative unit of the Han Dynasty, under the jurisdiction of about seven or eight counties, he will become the nominal king of the vassal state of Qiuci, and the main rights will be handed over to the Han people as the minister of state and the governor of the subject state, Other positions will be recruited from among the people of Qiuzi.

It can be seen that the king of Qiuzi, Fent Babini, is still a king who loves the people, or it can also be said that the king of Qiuzi has already realized that he has been a loser, but to his surprise, the way adopted by the Han Dynasty this time seems to be somewhat ...... ji1iรจ, but considering his treatment of the kings of Gumo, Wensu and other countries, this king feels that his ending is not bad.

Next up is Yanqi.

Similar to Qiuci, the countries around Yanqi, such as Weili, Weixu, and Shanguo, have either been wiped out or have surrendered to Yanqi, and it can be said that if this continues, Yanqi will become a great power in the Western Regions like Qiuzi.

It's just that their expansion also ends here.

But just when Li Shushi was full of ambition and ready to set foot all the way to the royal city of Nanhe City, the arrival of news made Li Shushi have to change his original plan again.

"My lord, Xiliang Deng Cheng and Koji Yan have come to report urgently, Dong Zhuo and Han Sui seem to have changed, if the matter of the Western Regions is over, please return to preside over the overall situation."

The one who came to report the news was under Ren Du, who Li Shushi stayed in charge of the work of Yiwu, and only Ren Du could get the news of Xiliang and even the Central Plains region with a relatively fast degree on the one hand, and on the other hand, he could grasp the dynamics of the Western Regions more accurately. Although this news was definitely more than a month late when it arrived in his hands, it was just as precious.

"It seems that this 'Yellow River Nine Songs' finally can't sit still."

Regarding such news, Ban Fu just shook his head and sighed, and did not say anything more. His life's interests and ambitions are all in the Western Regions, and Dunhuang County can be said to be the emperor of the sky, even if the Qiang people and Xianbei people invade most of them, they can't look down on the relatively barren Dunhuang County, even if they enter Dunhuang County, they are just borrowing the road, as long as they hold the city and don't give the other party a chance, the other party will not waste time there if they see no chance.

So for the battle between Dong Zhuo and Han Sui, this old man didn't have much personal feeling.

It's just that Ban Fu doesn't feel much about this news, but it doesn't mean that Li Shushi and the generals of the Bingzhou Army don't.

"It seems that this time I really can't delay in the Western Regions, whether it's me or the Flying Bear Army."

If Han Sui and Dong Zhuo really have a war, the Flying Bear Army, as Dong Zhuo's trump card troops, will never sit idly by, and Li Shushi is the same, after all, because of the problem in Hexi, the relationship between Li Shushi and Han Sui has become very delicate, if Dong Zhuo wins, it is okay, if the winner is Han Sui, then Li Shushi absolutely does not believe that Han Sui will be divided into separate areas with himself.

This "Han Jiuqu" is far inferior to Liu Bei and Sun Quan, both the thick black experts in the Three Kingdoms, and it is estimated that only the Wen Hou in history can be compared with it, one is a Zhuan Keng brother, and the other is a Zhuan Keng father.

However, looking at Yancheng in front of him, which has been sent to the banner of the Han family, Li Shushi knows that even if he has to leave the Western Regions now, he will not have much melancholy, because the seeds have been planted, the foundation has been laid, and the people who remain can build a strong enough house as long as they continue to work hard to consolidate it.

"Pangong, please entrust Your Excellency with the affairs of the Western Regions, and in a few days the edict officially appointed by His Majesty will reach the Western Regions, and at that time, Pangong will be the rightful protector of the Western Regions."

"Then I also wish the general to sweep away the traitors for His Majesty as soon as possible, and help the rivers and mountains of my Han Dynasty."

"Brother Ban and Brother Zhang, the body and comfort of the Bangong will be entrusted to the two, although the old man is physically tough, but he can't be impulsive at will, otherwise the body is sick, and it will delay the majesty of my Han in the Western Regions!"

"You little rabbit cub, the old man can fight for another thirty years!"

Perhaps this will be the last time the two of them will meet in this life, but both of them surprisingly did not feel the sad atmosphere, but instead a heroic love spread in their hearts.

Farewell, my Western Regions.

Come on, a new journey is about to be faced! (To be continued......)
