"Wu Jubei!"

"The last general!"

"You immediately lead your troops to all parts of the city, find the tunnels dug by the Wu army, pour them with open fire and poisonous smoke, and then fill them with mud to block them!"

"No!"

Wu Jubei immediately led a group of Chu soldiers to rush to the city.

Although it was difficult for the Chu army to react in a hurry, it was not difficult to find the tunnel dug by the enemy in a short period of time.

"The Great Age of Genes"

At this time, dozens of Wu soldiers had already arrived at the gate of the city, and opened the gate to fight with the nearby Chu soldiers.

Shen Zhuliang did not dare to slack off, and personally led a thousand soldiers to strangle the group of Wu army warriors, and at the same time, tried to close the city gate and prevent more enemies from entering Suicheng.

Moreover, Shen Zhuliang could also guess the direction of the city gate attacked by the Wu army, more than one, so he decisively ordered all Chu troops to gather at the city gate, and be sure to block the enemy and prevent him from entering the city!

"Kill!"

With the inside and outside of the city, at this time, the shouts of killing rose to the sky, and the corpses were everywhere, and the mourning was everywhere.

With Qingji's order, the charioteers bore the brunt of the battle and entered the city, but they couldn't stand the Chu army soldiers inside, who had already been waiting for the Wu army to enter the pocket formation!

Around the city gates, the Wu army and the Chu army fought extremely fiercely.

In order to attack Suicheng, Qingji can be said to have sent all the elites.

Gou Jian led the Tiger Ben Army, and Meng Ben led the Yulin Army to attack from different city passes, but they were all blocked without exception.

"Shoot the arrows!"

"Hugh Hugh!"

Whenever the soldiers of the Wu army rushed into the city, they would be killed by the random arrows of the Chu army.

One after another, Wu pawns were shot into hedgehogs, fell in pools of blood, and died of exhaustion.

However, Wu's fighting spirit remained tenacious.

With red eyes, they stepped over the corpse of the robe and rushed to the enemy on the opposite side without fear of death.

While fierce battles took place at various gates of Suicheng, the soldiers of the Chu army in the city were also constantly looking for enemies who entered Suicheng through tunnels.

Whenever they found an exit from a tunnel, the Chu soldiers would rush up, cut the enemy's corpses into pieces, and then pour dry firewood into the tunnel.

As soon as the fire went down, it produced a large amount of smoke that choked people and coughed.

"Withdraw! Evacuate! ”

The soldiers of the Wu army in the tunnel hurriedly evacuated, but they could not withstand the speed of the smoke.

In order to poison these enemies, the Chu army can be described as painstaking.

A large amount of smoke can not only stun people, but even choke them to death, suffocating them to death.

The exits of each tunnel were filled with dirt shoveled by the Chu army.

Wu Jun's intentions have been completely exposed!

Outside the city, where the Chinese army of the coalition army is located, Qingji stands on the chariot, holding the crossbar with one hand, looking forward to it.

Looking at the soldiers who died in battle one after another, Qingji saw it in his eyes and dripping blood in his heart.

Whether it is the Yulin Army or the Tiger Army, it is not easy for Wu Guo to cultivate these sharp soldiers.

Even if it is to kill ten enemies and die a sharp soldier, it is not worth it in Qingji's opinion!

The remnant sun is like blood.

The dense sound of war drums, as well as the resounding shouts of killing, continued until the evening.

After several hours of attack, the Wu army was unable to break through the defense line of the Chu army after all.

"Mingjin, collect the troops!"

Qingji smashed his fist on the crosswood, and finally gave the order to retreat.

At this time, Qingji still maintained a certain sanity to a greater or lesser extent.

Because he knew that according to this method of warfare, both the enemy and the enemy would end up losing both.

However, the Chu army occupies a favorable location, people, and the coalition army is inferior.

Even the most elite troops of the Wu State, the Tiger Ben Army and the Yulin Army, were defeated, and Qingji did not pin his hopes on other troops.

……

Night falls.

The camp of the coalition army, inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

Qingji sat on the top of the handsome position, and on the left and right sides, there were generals such as Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, and Bo Yu, as well as Cai Houshen, Tang Jun Ji Cheng and other monarchs.

The expressions on everyone's faces were very solemn.

"Da Sima, how much grain and grass does our army have?"

Qingji asked aloud.

Sun Wu replied: "King, our army is running out of food and grass, even if we kill war horses to satisfy hunger, I am afraid that it will not last for three days......"

Three days?

Qingji's mood became heavy again.

Now, the coalition forces have found themselves in an unprecedented predicament, which can be described as a dilemma.

Originally, according to Sun Wu's previous strategy, he showed weakness to the Chu army and wanted to lure the Chu army in the city to kill it.

But it didn't work!

Shen Zhuliang knew that most of the Chu army was a rabble, and if they fought head-on, they would definitely not be the opponent of the coalition army.

Therefore, the Chu army still held on to the city, ready to wait for the coalition army to retreat, or when the real food and grass were exhausted, and then send troops to give a fatal blow.

For Shen Zhuliang's intentions, Qingji and others could guess it.

In order to defeat Suicheng, Qingji even used it for tunnel warfare.

Shen Zhuliang did not see through Qingji's tactics in advance, but Shen Zhuliang's reaction was very fast, and he was able to calmly command the Chu army to fight back.

What shocked Qingji and the others the most was the Chu people's will to fight!

Several times, the Wu army had already entered the city and engaged in fierce street battles, but was finally blocked by the Chu army.

The coalition army suffered heavy casualties, and the Chu army was also uncomfortable, with battle losses approaching one-to-one.

Although Chu has three households, the death of Qin will be Chu!

Qingji can finally imagine how difficult it was to fight the battle of Qin and Chu in history.

In normal times, the state of Chu may look like a sick cat, often bullied by the state of Wu, and won more with less in war.

However, at this life-and-death juncture when the country is ruined and the family is ruined, the Chu people can still unite as one and give a heavy blow to the invading enemy.

The state of Chu is not so easy to perish.

What can I do?

Tingwei Bo hurriedly got up and said, "King, withdraw!" There was a shortage of food and grass in the army, and the war could no longer continue. ”

"Now there are really a lot of deserters in our coalition army, and people are panicking, and they can't fight!"

Hearing this, Qingji just frowned and didn't speak.

The generals present all said: "Your Majesty, what Ting Wei said is extremely true. ”

"The Chu people are tenacious and invincible!"

"The state of Chu has been shattered, and its national strength has declined to the extreme, and it is no longer able to be the enemy of my country of Wu!"

"King, the strategic purpose of my Wu Kingdom has been achieved, the king must not rush for quick success, because of small losses!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this battle cannot be fought.

Sun Wu's strategy before was weaker than the Chu army, so many soldiers fled, but Shen Zhuliang was not fooled at all.

Now the coalition forces are really unable to continue, and there are a large number of routs and fleeing.

How can the army fight when the morale of the army is so weak?

"Da Sima, Imperial Doctor, what do you think?"

Qingji did not make a decision immediately, but set his eyes on Sun Wu and Wu Zixu.

After the two glanced at each other, Wu Zixu stubbornly said: "King, if we retreat, our coalition army will certainly collapse." ”

"However, as long as the king and the soldiers and horses of my Wu State headquarters can return to Jinling and recuperate for a few years in the future, they can raise troops to attack Chu again, and they will definitely be able to succeed in the first battle!"

Sun Wu also said: "What the imperial doctor said is very reasonable. Think again, my lord! ”
