Chapter 496: King Han withdraws
"How long is enough?" King Han asked.
The grain and grass officer said: "I can't last a day......
In the grain and grass warehouse, there is no grain left, and it is a fact that it will not last a day.
A few days ago, although the King of Han mobilized a large number of baggage, grain and grass from Qingzhou, most of them were weapons and infantry, real grain and grass, but the Liu family could not supply them for a while, and only brought two or three days of grain.
originally thought that the Liu family would continue to transport grain and grass over, so the grain and grass officer didn't worry about this matter.
However, since yesterday, the Liu family has not sent food.
Without food, naturally there will be no war, and there will be a grain of rice left in the warehouse.
This news made King Han's face difficult to see to the extreme.
Under his anger, he looked at the grain and grass officer, and said in a deep voice: "A few days ago, the Liu family only sent two or three days of grain to replenish the baggage, grain and grass?" ”
The grain and grass officer nodded: "Yes." ”
"Then why didn't you report it?" King Han roared.
The grain and grass officer trembled and did not speak.
If it was reported, according to King Han's violent temper, his head might be cut off as soon as possible.
Where can I still live until now.
Therefore, the grain and grass officer did not dare to report.
Now that the Liu family does not send grain, the king of Han directly cut off the supply of grain and grass.
In King Han's eyes, endless anger welled up, and his whole face turned black into coal.
"Kill!" He commanded.
The soldiers behind him immediately grabbed the grain and grass officer.
They didn't even think about it, so they directly pulled the grain and grass officer to the back, and then killed him directly.
The faces of several generals were also difficult to see.
They all looked at King Han.
"King Han, what should I do now?"
"Without food and grass, how can we continue to fight."
"Xuzhou City, it will take at least two or three days to capture, but now it has run out of food, and if it continues to fight, it will only increase unnecessary casualties."
The generals, after hearing that there was no food and grass, had already developed the idea of retreating.
Once there is no food and grass in the army, there will be mutiny.
At that time, let alone attacking Xuzhou City, even if you continue to stay on this city wall, you may be defeated by the imperial army.
That's why they persuaded King Han to give up.
Taking advantage of the fact that all the soldiers did not know that the food was out of food, and Xie Jin's side did not know about it, they left quickly and could be saved.
If everyone knows that there is a shortage of food, the morale of the army will plummet.
The King of Han has experienced a hundred battles, and he obviously knows this truth very well.
But he was very unwilling.
Could it be that after finally winning this great battle situation, more than 10,000 people died, and then they were able to attack the city wall, but now they have to choose to give up?
Victory is just around the corner.
If you give up at this time, who can be willing to do it?
What's more, Xuzhou City is still an important place for soldiers.
As long as you can occupy Xuzhou City, you can break through Yingtianfu.
How could the king of Han be willing!
"Impossible, the Liu family will never easily withdraw their support for me, there must be something wrong with this."
"When I attacked Xuzhou, the head of the Liu family fully supported it."
King Han said with a gloomy face.
Without the support of the Liu family, how can this battle continue?
He didn't know anymore.
At this moment, King Han was really a little confused.
What's next?
Whether to withdraw or continue the offensive.
Continue to attack, and within half a day, we must break through Xuzhou.
If the troops are withdrawn, they must evacuate quickly while everyone is not aware of the lack of food, so that they can be preserved.
Reason was telling King Han that he had to leave.
However, he is not reconciled, he is really not reconciled!
Why did the Liu family suddenly stop supporting, and what happened to this?
If you don't attack this time, how long will it take to attack Xuzhou next time?
Moreover, there are still pirates at the customs.
King Han took a deep breath and held the knife in his hand tightly, trembling a little.
It suddenly occurred to him that all this was a bit of a joke.
He fought bloodily here for two days and one night, but who would have thought that because the Liu family did not support it, the grain and grass were directly cut off, resulting in the final victory being gone......
This war, from the very beginning to the present, has lasted for more than a month.
Just leave, willingly?
However, if you are not reconciled, you must be willing!
If you don't leave, when Xie Jin finds out, Xie Jin will launch a full-scale counterattack.
"Please also ask King Han to focus on the overall situation and withdraw his troops quickly."
"Go back at this time, we can still protect Qingzhou City and repel those imperial army troops."
"Under the city of Qingzhou, there are still 10,000 imperial troops, and they can't take Xuzhou, so it's okay to destroy them......"
Several generals are persuading.
They knew that the King of Han had a stubborn temper, and if the King of Han couldn't think about it all of a sudden and continued to attack, he would suffer heavy losses.
King Han gritted his teeth and finally made a decision.
"Withdraw!"
No one knows how devastated King Han was after making this decision.
Finally, he was about to break through Xuzhou, but the Liu family didn't support it!
In desperation, he could only withdraw his troops!
After King Han gave the order to withdraw his troops, several generals also breathed a sigh of relief.
It's just that they are also a little unwilling.
It's hard to kill here, so just leave?
Seeing that Xuzhou's fragrant dumplings are about to fall into their hands, but now, ......
Looking at those imperial soldiers, the eyes of the generals became even more fierce.
King Han raised his sword, turned around and walked under the city wall.
At the same time, those soldiers from the Han King's camp also received an order from the Han King to withdraw their troops!
When they heard the news of the withdrawal, all the soldiers could not believe it.
Even, some soldiers resisted strongly.
All have already succeeded, why choose to withdraw troops at this time?
However, they were just ordinary soldiers, and because they couldn't see King Han's decision, they could only leave with them.
On the city wall, with the evacuation of more and more soldiers, this side gradually became empty.
In such a situation, the defenders gradually found the clues.
King Han's army actually chose to retreat?
They were on the city wall, and they chose to withdraw their troops?
On those ladders to the clouds, there are a lot of soldiers of the Han Dynasty, going down.
Hold on to this wall for a day and a night, but now you have taken the initiative to retreat?
What's going on?
The defenders couldn't figure it out, but they were still extremely excited.
Because, seeing that their Xuzhou City was about to be breached, but the King of Han chose to withdraw his troops?
Several generals excitedly ran to Zhu Zhanji and Xie Jin.
"Master Xie, His Royal Highness Taisun, look, King Han has withdrawn."
As soon as he shouted, Zhu Zhanji raised his head and looked in the direction of the Han King's camp.
Seeing this, Zhu Zhanji's heart was suddenly full of doubts.
