Chapter 358: The Chu Army Fights Again!
The Zhao army lost 1,000 cavalrymen killed and 3,000 wounded.
The Qi army had zero deaths and zero injuries.
Only the state of Chu suffered the most.
The dead and wounded approached 20,000.
And it also affected the morale of the military.
Even with the next 20,000 reinforcements.
But the soldiers of the Chu State could see it.
Once they stormed the Song Kingdom.
Zhao Jun and Qi Jun will inevitably come out to help.
In this way, if the state of Chu does not have an absolute advantage.
The next capture of Song was a meaningless battle to the death.
The clouds of war still loom over the sky of Taoyi in the Song Kingdom.
No one knows what their fate will be next.
No one knows exactly in what direction the war will go.
After all, war kills.
In fact, there are only two people who really influence this war.
One is the Yin and Yang family who provoked the war, Donghuang Taiyi.
The other is to take over the three sons of the Song Kingdom by the way.
In favor of whom the scales of victory will fall.
It depends on who has the best move.
Nights.
The third son, Yingtian, has already buried the Song army.
After Song Gongji hastily finished the matter.
All back.
And the third son wins the sky as the son of the Mo family.
Surrounding the grave of the dead disciples of the Mo family.
They did not weep, and they did not grieve.
When they choose to be disciples of the Mo family.
The day is ready.
If a Mo disciple spends his time in inaction.
That's what makes them worse than killing them.
The third prince Yingtian looked at the grave of the dead Mo family disciple.
He was determined to end this unjust war as soon as possible.
He didn't want to use the life of a disciple of the Mo family to satisfy his selfish desires.
Otherwise, he would not be worthy of being a Mo family's son.
Swish!
The third prince Yingtian suddenly raised the Mo family sword in his hand.
The rest of the Mo family disciples also drew their Mo family swords one after another.
Use the unique ritual of the Mohists to send off this group of people who have lived for their ideals in the true sense, an adult with a capital letter.
"The ghosts are ghostly, and the living are soulful
Beyond the ephemeral shape, there is a sigh of silence
Punishment of evil cannot be said to be empty of sorrow
Yang Shan must wait for the time and the sun and the moon are too urgent
Ghost eyes are like electricity, and there is no one in the dark room
Bright ghosts, clear ghosts, all things in heaven and earth are conscience! ”
The third prince wins the sky and all the disciples of the Mo family.
With the ghost song of the Mo family, he sent the disciples of the Mo family who died for their ideals on their last journey.
The Great Camp of the State of Chu.
The mood of the entire Chu army was very heavy.
Even if 20,000 cavalry reinforcements came.
But he still couldn't get rid of the shadow of being almost wiped out by the whole army during the day.
The state of Chu needs a big victory to ease this emotion.
Otherwise, if you keep this mood and breathe, your morale will be low, and you will still lose the next battle.
So are the soldiers.
How could the general not know.
The king of Chu and the prince of Chu, Xiong Lie, don't know.
Inside the big tent of the Chinese army.
King Chu's face was extremely bad.
After all, it was him who drove the expedition himself.
All the generals no longer have the arrogance they had before.
Especially the great general Jing Cui.
During the day, he also boasted that he would climb the Song Kingdom Tower in half an hour.
It was climbed to the Song Kingdom Tower.
But it didn't take long to come down.
It was almost wiped out.
The generals bowed their heads.
They also don't have any good strategies at the moment to successfully capture the Song State under the harassment of Qi and Zhao.
And this time the first battle was lost, which was more than 15,000 people.
The first to speak was the king of Chu.
"Hahahaha! Why don't the generals speak? ”
“……”
None of the generals led by Jing Cui spoke.
They all bowed their heads in silence.
The king of Chu also knew that they had no face to speak.
"Someone! Serve! ”
Immediately, each general's dining table was filled with wine and food.
The king of Chu took the lead in holding the wine bottle:
"Generals, please raise the wine bottle in your hand!"
“……”
None of the generals picked up their decanters.
This made the king of Chu very embarrassed.
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, immediately cooperated:
"Generals, if you lose today, you will win tomorrow! Besides, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers! ”
"We are facing the world's famous generals Li Mu and Anping Jun Tiandan! and the three sons of Qin and Qin Hou to win the sky! ”
"It's okay to lose at first, that's the point!"
"Don't you generals want to be ashamed! Avenge today's revenge? Let me have more than 15,000 soldiers of the Chu State die in vain? ”
“……”
was stimulated by Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State.
Especially the great general Jing Cui.
It's a battle-hardened veteran.
Better than defeated.
Although this time the defeat was stupid and humiliating.
But in order to avenge the dead soldiers.
The general Jingcui immediately picked up the wine bottle:
"Generals!"
"I'm waiting for today's defeat!"
"Heavy losses!"
"Almost wiped out!"
"I'm drinking without a face!"
"But for the sake of always trusting our king!"
"For the sake of those dead soldiers!"
"We must learn from the pain! Don't be discouraged! ”
"Victory ultimately belongs to us Chu people!"
"Ladies and gentlemen, please pick up the wine bottle and put away the shame! Take out the murderous spirit of the past! ”
Knock knock!
All the generals picked up their wine bottles.
The general Jing Cui took the lead in getting up.
Then he drank a bottle of wine to the king of Chu.
Other generals did the same.
drank the bottle of wine one after another.
Then they knelt down to the king of Chu:
"Thank you for your trust!"
"We will repay the king with death!"
"Hahahaha!"
Only then did the king of Chu stroke his beard and laugh:
"That's right!"
"This is my Chu man!"
"This is my soldier of the Chu State!"
"Give these wine and meat to you!"
"Sleep well tonight!"
"Tomorrow!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
In this way, the generals of Chu State can be regarded as opening their hearts.
I thought about how to go into battle tomorrow to kill the enemy, serve the king of Chu, and avenge the dead soldiers.
Wait until an hour has passed.
The wine and meat given by the king of Chu have been eaten.
The generals were slightly drunk and helped each other out of the barracks.
The king of Chu suddenly got up suddenly:
"General Jingcui, there are some things I want to tell you!"
"Okay."
So.
Inside the whole barracks tent,
There are only Xiong Lie, the king of Chu and the prince of Chu, and the general Jing Cui.
"Stand back left and right!"
The king of Chu ordered the people who were waiting around him to stand guard at the door.
The general Jing Cui also knew that the King of Chu was not so calm as he looked.
In fact, I am more anxious than anyone else.
King Chu changed his face.
I still talked and laughed with the generals before.
Now Tie blushes.
Squinted at the general Jing Cui:
"General Jingcui, you are my Chu royal family."
"It's the same lineage as the widow."
"And you're a veteran of many years."
"Except for Zhuang Ji, the widow trusts you the most."
"Now that the widow asks you, you must tell the truth."
"You don't have to take care of the widow's feelings! Do you understand? ”
General Jing Cui nodded silently:
"Thank you for the king's trust, the old minister must tell the truth."
The king of Chu stroked his beard and said nervously:
"Do you have a way to solve this situation?"
General Jing Cui frowned:
"Your Majesty, to be honest, ...... at the moment"
"No, unless there is a contradiction between the State of Zhao and the State of Qi.
In this case, there will be other situations on the Mo family's side. ”
"Today, the old minister observed the disciples of the Mo family in Taoyi of the Song Kingdom."
"Each is not an ordinary person, but a person who sees death as his home."
"And they know swordsmanship, they are skilled in archery, they are not afraid of danger, and they are disciplined."
"More like soldiers in the real sense than our Chu army, Zhao army, and Qi army."
"So even if it's Zhao Guo and Qi Guo, it doesn't matter."
"If we forcibly capture the Song State Taoyi."
"There must be a price to pay for blood."
"It is estimated that the losses will be ...... 30,000 to 40,000 people by then."
Syllable!
King Chu clenched his right hand and smashed it the food table.
Gritting his teeth and angry, he looked at Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State:
"This Mo family! Mohism! Mohism! Why do you have to go against the widow! ”
"If there is no Mo family! We have now occupied the Song Kingdom! ”
"Damn! Disgusting! ”
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, originally wanted to follow and curse the third prince to win the sky.
But when I think about it, the third son wins the sky, and he is just the Mo family.
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with him.
So I held back.
General Jing Cui continued:
"Today, the old minister and the third prince win the day!"
"I found out that this person is a dragon and phoenix among people! Whether it's the mind or something else! ”
"It can be said that it is first-class! This person is in Taoyi in the Song Kingdom, it's difficult! ”
The king of Chu looked in the direction of Qin again:
"Brother-in-law, you gave birth to a good son!"
The King of Chu sighed helplessly, and finally looked at the general Jing Cui:
"Is there no other way?"
General Jing Cui's brows furrowed even tighter.
"Tell the truth, Your Majesty! The battle has been fought to this extent......"
Grain
"Now there are only two ways to break the game!"
King Chu raised his eyebrows, and he was happy in his heart:
"Speak quickly!"
The great general Jing Cui glanced at Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State.
In the end, after hesitating for a long time, he said:
"The first way is to increase the number of troops and crush them with a strong corps advantage!"
"The second way is ......"
The general Jing Cui suddenly knelt down as he spoke:
"Please calm the king's anger, and the old minister will tell the truth."
General Jiang Cui breathed a long sigh of relief and plucked up the courage to say:
"The other way is to withdraw."
"If we withdraw, Zhao and Qi will inevitably withdraw."
"Even if one of them does not withdraw, the other will continue to confront, and Song will remain neutral."
"So ......"
Syllable!
The King of Chu was instantly furious and threw the wine bottle down directly:
"Do you know that this time it's a widow."
"If the army is defeated and withdrawn, won't it become the laughing stock of the world?"
"In fact, the other six princes must be happy in turn, and make fun of the widow every day."
"When he meets the whole world one day, won't the widow be the pleasure of the other six princes?"
"Jing Cui! How daring! ”
The general Jing Cui knew that the king of Chu would be angry.
In the end, it was said.
After all, it's a loss of face to withdraw troops now, but there will be no more deaths.
Seeing that the king of Chu was furious, the general Jing Cui immediately bowed his head and admitted his mistake.
"Please calm my king's anger!"
Prince Xiong Lie immediately came out to play the round:
"Father, why are you angry, General Jingcui is just telling the truth."
"As for how to decide, it's not up to you, father, to decide."
"It's not too late for us to discuss again."
“……”
Only then did the King of Chu dissipate the anger in the atmosphere.
Then he sat down on the throne and lowered his head a little lonely, shaking his head:
"Jingcui, don't be angry."
"The widow doesn't know that the only way to minimize the losses is to retreat at the moment."
"But the reputation of the widow is rotten, and the widow can't afford to lose this person."
"Can you understand the widow?"
The great general Jing Cui naturally couldn't understand it.
But it still goes against his will:
"The old minister is very understanding."
Seeing this, Prince Xiong Lie knew that there was no point in chatting any further.
Therefore, he said to the general Jing Cui:
"General Jingcui, please go down and rest first, and this prince will persuade my father."
The king of Chu also knew that the crown prince Xiong Lie had something to say to him.
And he said in accordance with the meaning:
"Jingcui, you go down and rest, let the widow think about it."
"It's the king."
The general Jing Cui retreated.
There were only the king of Chu and the crown prince Xiong Lie left in the big tent.
The king of Chu said weakly:
"I wonder what my son has to say?"
The crown prince Xiong Lie is naturally convinced of the Yin and Yang family and Qu Fuzi.
So at this time, I reminded:
"Father, have you forgotten the revenge of the Duke recommended by Qu Fuzi?"
"Oh?"
King Chu opened his eyes in an instant.
Excited:
"Yes, yes, yes! The defeat of this day made the widow forget the existence of this person. ”
"Summons this man!"
"You go for yourself!"
"It's my father."
In this way, Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, personally went to find the public who had been protected.
Soon, Gong Defeat and Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu, came to the big tent of the Chinese army.
"Mr. Gongyi, please be seated."
Although the public loses revenge, it is not a person in the court.
It's a geek.
is hidden.
But according to the attitude of the king of Chu before and now.
He had already guessed the possibility of the defeat of the Chu State.
Then he knelt down and sat down.
King of Chu and Qi Dao:
"Mr. Gongyi, there are only three people here, you, me, and the prince."
"Don't hide it, it's ...... today"
The king of Chu told the news of today's defeat to the public defeat.
Gong Defeating nodded and listened silently.
Wait until the king of Chu finishes speaking.
The public loser said bluntly:
"The state of Chu has this big defeat, which is within my expectations!"
"What?"
The king of Chu was a little displeased.
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu, was afraid that the king of Chu would get angry and provoke the public who couldn't speak.
Immediately interjected:
"Why did Mr. Gong Lose say that?"
Gong Defeat Hatred patiently explained:
"Mo family! All people are not normal people. ”
"In today's troubled times, ordinary people are flies and dogs, and they don't look like people in comparison."
"Fighting this group of people who don't look like people has to be done in an unusual way."
The King of Chu hurriedly said:
"What an unusual way!"
Gong Defeat Hatred proudly said:
"That's naturally the next mechanism!"
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, also said excitedly:
"So Mr. Gong is sure of winning?"
The public loses and spreads his hands:
"Naturally, I don't dare to talk about victory."
"But it's still possible to win the Mo family!"
The king of Chu and Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu, were very satisfied.
Continued to ask:
"How to win?"
"That's the mechanism that is used below."
"Through various organs, before the Zhao State and the Qi State supported the Song State."
"Capture the Song Kingdom."
King Chu stood up directly and excitedly:
"So, the gentleman is willing to help me?"
The public lost the revenge but waved his hand and said:
"Not at the moment!"
The King of Chu was puzzled:
"That's not right! Didn't you be recommended by Qu Fuzi? ”
"Why don't you want to help the widow?"
Gong Defeating Hatred explained:
"Help Chu to win! There must be a premise! ”
"What premise?"
The public loses the revenge unhurriedly:
"As I said before, that is, we must let the Mo family organ take action first."
"Or not!"
But the king of Chu was puzzled:
"But so far, the Mo family hasn't used the trick."
The public defeated the enemy and stood up directly and bowed and said:
"Then I can't help it!"
"You ......"
The king of Chu was speechless for a long time when he was defeated by the arrogant public.
If you lose the public and the enemy, you will ignore it, and you will go out.
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, was also very angry.
Where have I ever seen such a proud person?
Ben wanted to get angry.
But now there is a request for others, and it can only be dealt with calmly.
When the public is about to get out of the big tent.
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, grinned and said proudly:
"Mr. Gongyi, you are here to defeat the Mo family."
"But you know the situation right now."
"If this stalemate continues, it will not benefit anyone."
"What if my father wants to return to the court?"
"Have you ever thought that it is impossible for you to fight the Mo family in your life?"
"Huh?"
"As long as we withdraw our troops, you ...... Hehe, just wait for your mechanism to rot. ”
“……”
Gong Loser, who was withdrawing from the war, suddenly stopped, and the corners of his eyes twitched.
"No! Absolutely not! This time you have to compete with the Mo family! ”
"If you miss this opportunity, I don't know how many years you have to wait!"
"I don't want to die with regrets!"
Xiong Lie, the crown prince of Chu State, nodded proudly at the King of Chu.
Only then did the king of Chu get the pulse of the revenge of the public.
Don't be in a hurry, pretend to be a problem:
"Mr. Gong Lose, it's not that the widow doesn't want to fight against the Mo family."
"It's just that you know the current situation, and you don't want to make a move."
"The widow can only retreat in the end, and the situation will still be the same tomorrow."
"You can go home with your mechanism."
"How?"
The public lost the revenge and shouted out directly and angrily:
"No! Absolutely not! You have to compete with the Mo family! ”
The king of Chu was even more upright this time:
"What then? You refused to make a move, and the Mo family also used tricks. ”
"Sir, how can you teach the widow?"
“……”
Gong Defeating was silent all of a sudden, and his eyes were rolling rapidly, not knowing what he was thinking.
The king of Chu and the crown prince of Chu were not in a hurry to ask.
Long.
The public defeated the enemy and gritted his teeth and said unwillingly:
"In this way, I will use the trick to help the Chu army deal with the Mo family."
"King Chu, you won't retreat?"
The King of Chu nodded again and again:
"That's right, isn't this how it should be, how could the widow let Mr. come for nothing?"
"Good! I'm out of the way! But I'm ahead of that! ”
Gong Defeating Hatred squinted his eyes and threatened.
The King of Chu was puzzled:
"Sir, please."
The public loses the revenge truthfully:
"The Mo family's mechanism is unfathomable!"
"If you take the lead!"
"You can only win in a short period of time!"
"In other words, you Chu State must move quickly!"
"Capture the Taoyi of the Song Kingdom as soon as possible before the Mo family makes a move."
"In this case, when the State of Qi and the State of Zhao came to support the State of Song, the State of Song had already been occupied by the State of Chu."
"But if you move slowly, the Mo family will break my mechanism at that time, and if you are defeated, the King of Chu can't blame him for being incompetent."
"Because you forced me to do it!"
"If the king of Chu agrees, he can help fight the Chu army tomorrow!"
The king of Chu thought for a while and felt that as long as he could capture the Song State before the Qi army and the Zhao army.
Then let the Chu army enter the state of Chu.
You can still hold on to the city.
And then continue to increase the number of troops.
In this way, the Song State could be captured without being lost.
