Sanhe City is a relatively prosperous city in the north of the Chu State, which is nearly a hundred miles away from the current garrison of the Chu army.

The most important thing is that the soldiers of the Chu army will attack overnight and arrive at Sanhe City tomorrow.

In this way, the problem of cutting off grain and grass can be solved.

In addition, Sanhe City is also a barrier in the north of Chu State, and if you retreat to Sanshe City, the Chu army can advance and attack, and retreat and defend.

It's just that in this way, the Chu State will lose a lot of land.

The current situation does not allow them to have a better choice.

In this way, the Chu army began to withdraw.

The scouts in the army sent the news of the retreat of the Chu army back to the army, and Xie Yunxiao and Wang Hui were both in the camp at this time.

"It is inevitable to move forward, but the next step is to enter the territory of Chu State, in this way, they will become much more active, in contrast, we will naturally fall into a passive situation!" Wang Hui said.

"On someone else's territory, passivity is inevitable, but at the same time, we can also be active!" Xie Yunxiao said.

"How to be proactive?" Wang Hui asked.

Xie Yunxiao said: "Think about it, these lands that have been beaten down are now ours, since they are ours, can't they take the initiative to do something?" ”

Wang Hui smiled bitterly, "You didn't say this!" ”

Xie Yunxiao laughed and said, "Otherwise, you want to hear what I say?" ”

Wang Hui sighed again and again, he felt that Xie Yunxiao was a friend at this time.

The Chu army retreated, the Ning army advanced, and it was not simply chasing the past, but wherever he passed, Xie Yunxiao had already begun to preach the benefits of Ning Guo with the original people.

Such an action is naturally to change these people of Chu in their thinking.

This kind of trick, you don't have to think about it, you naturally learned it from Yu Buwei.

After Yu Buwei was named the Marquis of Wenxin, Shuzhong was his fief, and it was he who changed the thinking of the people in Shuzhong, so that Xie Yunxiao and Xue Ju chased them to the land of Shuzhong, and they would be tied.

The State of Chu is different from the State of Han, the State of Zhao, and the State of Yan, in those three countries, their people do not have a strong sense of belonging to their own country, and the people of Chu State, they are proud of being the people of Chu State from the bottom of their hearts.

After all, the state of Chu was the most powerful existence among the seven kingdoms.

Wang Hui didn't quite understand Xie Yunxiao's approach for a while, but he knew Xie Yunxiao and would never do useless things, so he didn't say anything.

In about three days, Xie Yunxiao and Wang Hui pushed the 300,000-strong army ten miles outside Sanhe City.

The city of Trois-Rivières is named after the fact that three rivers meet here. Three rivers, flowing from different directions, enclose the city in the center.

In the past, there were only two roads in Trois-Rivières, and each road was not easy to walk.

Daliang City, the capital of Wei State, in addition to the area occupied and the arrangement of formations with the help of feng shui, is much inferior to the Sanhe City in front of it.

Within a radius of dozens of miles, there are just ordinary hills, no big mountains, and three rivers, which are the largest natural barriers in Three Rivers City.

Xie Yunxiao and Wang Hui were standing on the edge of the river at this time, overlooking the city opposite, and they wanted to attack it, obviously the method of Daliang, the capital of Wei, could not be borrowed.

Daliang, the capital of Wei State, was indestructible because of the power of feng shui, and it was also destroyed because of the power of feng shui, but in this city of three rivers, there is no protective formation, only three rivers as a barrier.

In addition to attacking the city head-on, Xie Yunxiao has no good way to take it for the time being.

"Have you ever been to Trois-Rivières?" Wang Hui asked.

Xie Yunxiao nodded, "Don't forget, I used to be a merchant who traveled all over the seven countries of the world, how could I not go for a walk in this famous city?" ”

"Really? Then you must know the strengths and weaknesses of this city, so tell me quickly! Wang Hui said with a smile.

Xie Yunxiao said: "This city is made of thousands of pounds of boulders, and the gluing is the best glutinous rice pulp, in addition, although this city does not have a protective formation, but these thousand pounds of boulders, each piece is not an ordinary thing, and there are runes depicted on it, and the entire city wall is a whole, which is difficult to break!" ”

"What I want to hear is the flaw in the city, isn't it annoying that you say this?" Wang Hui rolled his eyes repeatedly.

Xie Yunxiao said: "The flaw in this city is that there is no flaw!" ”

When Wang Hui heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, "Can we only attack the city head-on?" ”

"At least until now, I haven't thought of any other good way!" Xie Yunxiao said.

Wang Hui pondered for a moment, took a deep breath, and said, "Attacking head-on, then it can be regarded as a temptation!" ”

"Xiang Yan is not an ordinary person, if this siege is just with a tentative attitude, I am afraid that he will suffer a big loss!" Xie Yunxiao reminded.

Wang Hui nodded, "No matter what, this first battle must be started, otherwise we will suffer a loss if we are consumed here!" ”

"Yes, in terms of grain and grass now, they must have no problem, but we, the grain and grass in this vicinity, have been searched by them, and the grain has to be transported from afar!" Xie Yunxiao said.

Wang Hui said: "It's a pity, if those grains and grass hadn't been burned by you, they would have come in handy right now!" ”

Xie Yunxiao glared at Wang Hui, "If you don't burn those grains and grasses, will the Chu army retreat?" ”

Wang Hui laughed dryly, "This seems to have some truth!" ”

After the army rested for a day, Wang Hui led the three armies to attack Sanhe City at noon on the second day.

On the road that was not too wide, the army advanced in a neat and orderly manner.

Coming to a distance of nearly 100 zhang under the city wall, the Chu army on Sanhe City greeted him with arrows.

The sound of breaking through the sky spread between the heavens and the earth, and the dense arrows were like flying locusts.

Wang Hui ordered the shield soldiers to step forward, and at the same time, the trebuchet also followed, the formation was running, and the trebuchet moved, and the boulders weighing thousands of catties, like small mountains, smashed towards Sanhe City.

This city is very special, there are many hidden places for soldiers to be built on it, these soldiers are hidden in it, and the falling boulders are smashed on the city wall, but there is no way to hurt these soldiers.

"It's a hard tortoise shell!" Seeing this, Wang Hui's eyes narrowed slightly.

Xie Yunxiao said: "It's harder than expected, but the dripping stone wears, isn't it?" ”

"There seems to be no better way than this now!" Wang Hui said.

The trebuchet continued to throw stones, although it could not break through Sanhe City, but it made the archers of Chu unable to connect the arrows they shot.

In this way, Ning's army soon arrived under the city wall.

Within close proximity, what greeted Ning Jun was rolling wood, burning oil, and so on.

The Ning army instantly formed a small battle formation, a group of ten people, and the gathered strength blocked the falling rolling wood boulders, as well as the burning oil, and so on.

At the same time, the other soldiers carried the giant tree and came to the city gate violently under the city of Three Rivers.

The sturdiness of this gate was far from expected, and it only trembled a few times when it hit nearly half a pillar of incense.

"Mingjin retreats, you won't be able to capture this city today!" Xie Yunxiao said.

Wang Hui nodded, Ning Jun retreated, and Xiang Yan and Yin Hong stood on the city wall at this time.

"We can't just defend passively, otherwise the land we lose will be lost forever!" Yin Hong said.

Xiang Yan said: "This is natural, take a step back, just because the situation is compelled, they can go further, but it is not necessarily a good thing!" ”

Yin Hong nodded, "If we can defeat Xie Yunxiao and Wang Hui this time, this will be qualified for our Chu State to dominate the world of Kyushu!" ”

"Of the seven kingdoms in the world, those who have the qualifications to unify the world of Kyushu have always been the only ones in Chu!" Xiang Yan said indifferently.

Yin Hong heard the domineering in Xiang Yan's words, and at that moment she looked at Xiang Yan sideways, and at this moment, Xiang Yan seemed to have something in her heart.

After retiring from the army, in the handsome camp, Xie Yunxiao and Wang Hui were present.

Neither of them spoke at this time, and for a time it was very quiet in the tent.

In the past, it was Dai Qing who came in and reported the casualties.

Although the attack did not achieve the slightest benefit, fortunately, there were no casualties, except for dozens of wounded, no one died.

After Dai Qing went out, Wang Hui was the first to speak, "The solidity of Three Rivers City is far from expected, I wonder, could it be a wrong decision for us to follow so closely?" After all, this is deep into the interior of the enemy country! ”

Xie Yunxiao said: "This step, we must go, as for right and wrong, it is never absolute!" ”

Wang Hui nodded, his brows were furrowed, and a Sichuan character suddenly formed at the center of his eyebrows.

"We always think of a way, but we can't always think about how to attack, in this situation, they have lost territory, so they must be more anxious than us, once they take the initiative, we will have a chance, right?" Xie Yunxiao said.

When Wang Hui heard this, his frowning brows suddenly loosened, and the tiger's eyes suddenly brightened like stars in the sky, he took a deep breath and said, "You are right, at this time, it is they who should be anxious, not us!" ”

"The use of troops pays attention to quick battles, but these are not absolute, although our food and grass supply is stretched at the moment, but they can't figure out the situation of our grain and grass, so naturally they can't help us, as for Three Rivers City, we really can't attack it, but the food and so on inside will always run out, right?" Xie Yunxiao said with a smile.

Wang Hui laughed, "Yes, this city is indeed strong, but the city is not very big, there are many people living in it, the Chu army is still below in terms of grain and grass, we only need to guard the two roads into Sanhe City, unless they have a boat ······"

"Yes, if they had a ship, we wouldn't be able to cut them off!"

Xie Yunxiao said: "The three rivers in Three Rivers City are not very big, and it is no problem to transport goods, but it is also very easy for us to cut off the boats on the three rivers, isn't it?" ”

Wang Hui said: "We don't have a ship!" ”

"If there is no ship, then the ship will be built, and if there is no ship, then the ship will be delivered!" Xie Yunxiao said.

Wang Hui nodded, "Yes, that's it!" ”

In the next few days, Wang Hui and Xie Yunxiao did not command the army to attack, but brought ships to block the three rivers, and the boats outside could not enter Sanhe City at all.
