Under Jeju City, another round of fighting is coming to an end.

This is the seventh battle in which the Liangzhou Army has rushed here to have a head-to-head confrontation and confrontation with the Guirong people for more than half a month, and the result is still indistinguishable.

Under the circumstance that there is not much difference in the strength of the two sides, and there are many concerns and they dare not go all out, no matter how many times such a tug-of-war is fought, the result is still the same.

From each sending a small group of 100 cavalry to engage in a fierce confrontation, to the follow-up soldiers and horses pressing, turning into a battle formation of thousands of people, and then to their respective retreats, this day passed quickly in the battle.

The casualties on both sides were naturally not small, but they were far from the point of breaking their muscles and bones, and even if the battle was final, they did not really blush, but just obeyed the orders of their respective Chinese armies and slowly retreated.

However, judging from the results of the battle, the Liangzhou army was obviously the more dominant side. This is not because they suffered fewer casualties than the enemy, but because they were able to send wounded soldiers into Jeju Fortress and receive better medical treatment, so as to maintain a better follow-up strength.

Such a fact was placed in front of Yelu Changlong, which made him feel more and more irritable.

It turned out to be a good raid on the battle of Lulu, but because of various changes, it has now become like this.

I thought that I could take the whole territory of Ludi like a bamboo, but it turned out that there were frequent mistakes and accidents, not only suffered a big loss here in Jeju City, but also the Kong family, who won the hearts of the people of Ludi in Huairou behind, was actually killed by people in a daze, and this sin actually fell on them.

Now all parts of Ludi are ready to move, there are many rebels, and the Jeju City in front of him is becoming more and more difficult to conquer because of the arrival of Yangju rescuers.

Now when he looks up at Jeju City, he even feels that this is a piece of chicken ribs that are tasteless and discarded.

It was not that there were no subordinates who proposed to withdraw the troops, but it was impossible for Yelu Changlong to make such a decision.

Because this was a strategy jointly decided by the leaders of the three tribes, he was only ordered to attack, and he did not dare to withdraw his troops without getting a new military order.

Second, the current situation does not give him a chance to calmly withdraw from the army. Once they really retreat, I am afraid that the Liangzhou army and the defenders in the city will immediately chase and kill, and at that time, the consequences will be unimaginable.

So even if he knew that Jeju had no hope of taking it, he could only hold on to the end, and he had to launch an offensive every day to maintain the morale of the whole army.

Looking at the large number of tired soldiers who had retreated, Yelu Changlong couldn't help but sigh softly: "How much grain and grass do we have left?" ”

"It's enough for ten days, but the medicine can't keep up." The subordinates of the cronies had already prepared, and immediately replied in a low voice, "And the next batch of grain was supposed to arrive three days ago, but now there is still no ...... to be found."

Yelu Changlong's brows furrowed even more: "Where will this batch of grain come from?" ”

"Zizhou."

"Could it be that there's something going on over there, too?" Yelu Changlong's heart jumped suddenly, and he was faintly uneasy.

As a big city in Ludi, which is almost as prosperous as Jeju, if even Zizhou goes wrong, then all of them will have a very hard time in Ludi in the future.

And at this moment, a fast horse suddenly galloped from afar, and soon rushed into the camp of the Guirong people for more than ten miles, until Yelu Changlong came to him, and the knight rolled down on that horse, and reported in a dumb voice: "The city of Zizhou is in turmoil, and the city has been recaptured by the local people!" ”

Even if he was prepared, after hearing this military situation, Yelu Changlong's face changed drastically, and he roared uncontrollably: "What? ”

……

Also entangled in the current battle situation is Guo Han, the main general in the Liangzhou army.

As the son of Guo Yan's key training, Guo Han has indeed been competitive enough in the past few years, not only has the style of a father in combat, but also has become stable from the previous frivolity and radicalization.

After knowing that the Ghost Rong people raided Ludi, it was natural to send troops to rescue him, and he did it, at least before Jeju City was broken, he rushed to block the onslaught of the Ghost Rong people.

However, the battles and injuries in the past half month still made him feel a lot of pressure.

In the past half a month, the two armies have clashed seven times, and the casualties of the Liangzhou army have reached a worrying number of 5,000, which he could never have imagined before.

This is all the team that their Guo family has spent and how much effort they have spent little by little.

Originally, the situation of the Liangzhou army, which was attacked by both the north and the south, was very bad, so he thought of starting from Ludi to get supplements. But at the moment, it's good, the benefits are not visible, and their own soldiers and horses have lost so much.

If he can't get anything in the end, it will be too fatal to his Guo family's attrition.

But it is obviously inappropriate to withdraw from the army at this point, not to mention whether the people of Ludi agree or not, even the ghost people in front of them will not let go of their own family.

So you can only hold on!

"Young marshal, we can't fight as hard as we do now!" A subordinate general said with red eyes, "The casualties of the brothers are too large, and if this continues, even if we drive away the ghosts, we will not be able to hold Ludi." Don't forget, in addition to us, there is also the Ping Tianjun on the sidelines. ”

"I know......" Guo Han waved his hand in annoyance, "But now it's not a question of whether we want to retreat or not, but the ghost Rong people, if they are determined to live and die, once we retreat, the consequences will be serious."

"Not only will all the previous casualties be in vain, but the entire Ludi will also be handed over."

"That's better than constantly consuming our Liangzhou army officers and soldiers. Young marshal, Lu Di is far from saying that he wants to surrender to us......"

Guo Han was stunned, that's really what happened.

Although he arrived at Jeju City early this time, he has not yet met with King Lu and other important people to discuss follow-up matters. It's really too urgent to have military affairs, and I haven't had time to go into the city to negotiate with my family for half a month.

After pondering for a while, he spoke: "In this way, you go to the city first and settle the matter with King Lu and them." Also, send a messenger to the camp of the ghost on the other side to find out their tone as well.

"Since we've been badly damaged, they're not much better. If I'm right, in fact, they, like us, are almost unable to support it, and they are only in a dilemma because of the situation. ”

"What does the young marshal mean by negotiating the dismissal?"

"Yes, then we'll split the land equally." Guo Han said his thoughts with a little hesitation.

If we continue to fight, it will be extremely unfavorable to both the enemy and us, so it is better to withdraw the troops and then completely divide up the land.

Just when his subordinates were a little suspicious, and before they could speak, a personal soldier had already reported outside: "Young marshal, there is a ghost envoy who asks to see him outside the camp, saying that he has something important to discuss......

Some people died, but not completely......
