Chapter 157: One and a Half Million Enemy Troops

At that time, the king of Qin was stationed in Qingzhou, and he did set up an ambush.

Prepare to close the door and fight the dog.

Although Xuzhou does not have elite soldiers, Qingzhou does.

You must know that at that time, Qingzhou hoarded the 4340,000 troops of the Chu army.

If you come to close the door and fight the dogs, then the 500,000 army of King Wei is really not enough to see.

His Royal Highness the King of Qin originally wanted to use Qingzhou as a barrier to cut off the 500,000 army of the King of Wei and break them one by one.

Why, the enemy army was too cunning and was not fooled.

And because Qingzhou is next to Jingzhou, and Qingzhou is surrounded by a moat, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

King Wei's 500,000 people are simply not enough to see.

On the other hand, Jingzhou on the side, although the moat is not as deep as Qingzhou, it is also modeled after Qingzhou, surrounded by Surabaya.

Moreover, the Jingzhou army is brave and good at fighting, and the four countries are well known.

Jingzhou is also next to the Huai River, Qingzhou is near the river, if you attack Jingzhou.

Not to mention that it will not be able to attack for a while, if the Qingzhou army on the other side rushes to the aid by water, it will arrive in the second half of the day at full speed.

At that time, the Wei army would face an amphibious army, which would be very difficult.

And the sneak attack tactics originally prepared by Wei were gone.

The first hand was broken, and he had to attack the city head-on.

In addition to Qingdao and Jing in the south, only the direction of Yangzhou remains.

The king of Wei had no choice but to aim the spearhead at this Yangzhou.

This Yangzhou, although there is no topography of Qingzhou, there is no people in Jingzhou.

But this Yangzhou is the strongest among the city walls in Kyushu.

This Yangzhou was originally the place where the capital of Zhao was once located.

And the monarch of Zhao is a fastidious person, and it is known that everything is a giant.

It is rumored that when the Yangzhou city was built, every brick and tile on the city wall had to leave the name of the craftsman.

If the brick was found to be broken that day, the famous craftsman on the brick would have to walk on the guillotine.

Because of this strict censorship system, the Yangzhou city built by the Zhao State is naturally indestructible

Even if it was the old emperor who was once dominant, it took more than a month to break through the capital of Zhao State, and Yangzhou City.

It is really a strong wall, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Of course, the reason why Zhao was finally broken was also because of its emphasis on literature and suppression of military force, which eventually led to its defeat.

The monarch of Zhao Guoguo hanged himself on the city wall, in order to keep his people and bones alive.

When the old emperor saw that the monarch of Zhao was so strong, he was extrajudicial and did not slaughter the city.

And now, Zhao Xing's Guanlongmen valve and those who used to be in Yangzhou City have long disappeared.

King Zhao's character has long existed in name only.

Although, to this day, Yangzhou is still one of the states with the most Chinese people in Kyushu.

But when Su Xiu entered the city, he found that the city of Yangzhou was full of poor people who had no escape, and there was no way to escape.

There are very few scholars who take care of the wounded soldiers and those who are above the city, and those who are willing to live and die with this fortified city.

Hardly.

Thinking about those who have heads and faces, they have long gone to relatives and friends, and where did they go to Xuzhou after the door-to-door relationship.

After all, Xu and Yang have always been tied together.

The soldiers and civilians in these two states are also related to each other, and now in this form, it is really the best to take refuge in Xuzhou.

The second is naturally that if the city of Yangzhou is broken in front, if the enemy army wants to drive straight in, it will have to enter from Qingzhou and Jingzhou.

If these two states are also broken, it means that the Chu Dynasty should be extinct.

If these two states fall, then the Chu Dynasty is really lacking in skills, and the enemy cavalry can drive straight into the hinterland of our army.

As the saying goes, in this era of war, it is useless to be a scholar.

After all, there are still very few scholars like Zhang Yi and Su Qin.

Besides, even these two people will not be able to recover in the later stage.

Su Xiu looked at the people above the city, carrying the rolling stone and sasswood in their hands, sighed in their hearts, and secretly swore in their hearts.

This Yangzhou city will be defended no matter what.

When Su Xiu's gaze swept down

The confidence that had been firm because of the ratio of forces between the enemy and us and the strength of the city walls was suddenly shaken.

Looking at the battlefield under the city of Yangzhou, where the two armies faced each other, Su Xiu suddenly understood why there were not so many wounded in the city.

It turned out that the people under the city who confronted our Chu Dynasty army were not 500,000.

At a glance, the enemy army is boundless, and you can't see the end in the distance.

Su Xiu frowned, looking at the enemy army arrays neatly arranged in front of him, and made a rough estimate in his heart.

One and a half million enemy troops!

Su Xiu was shocked in his heart, this enemy army was not 500,000 at all, but 1.1 million.

Looking at our camp again, how can the enemy and our soldiers seem to be about five times different

No wonder there were so many dead and wounded soldiers in this city.

This is five times stronger than our army's military strength.

Su Xiu frowned, this briefing said that the enemy army was only 500,000 in Wei, what the hell was going on.

At this moment, the military master wearing the long costume on the side trotted forward in a panic, and said with a solemn face.

"Report to the general, Qingzhou and Jingzhou will come to report quickly."

"The two states can't support, and the Wu Dynasty has already stationed troops on the border of the two states."

"The two states don't dare to act rashly."

"If the military situation in Yangzhou is urgent, their two states will definitely send troops to help!"

General Yangzhou picked his cheeks, his temples jumped violently, and he roared angrily.

"This bunch of crumbs! If you don't come, you won't come, what kind of excuses are they! ”

"Humph! It's not that we were raised by stepmothers. ”

"The news is wrong this time, and the coalition forces of Qi, Wei, and Jin are coming."

"Aren't they afraid that this Yangzhou will be broken, and the green and Jing will not be protected?"

looked at the Yangzhou general who angrily scolded Erzhou Assassin Shi and the prince in front of him.

Su Xiu lowered his head and pursed his lips.

I sighed in my heart.

It seems that these two princes are not ready to take care of this Yangzhou.

Su Xiu looked at the soldiers below who were only three hundred and thirty or forty thousand.

I immediately understood what the princes of these two states thought.

Sigh secretly.

Speak from the heart.

Jingzhou and Qingzhou are natural dangers, and the two states can help each other.

If it is properly coordinated, 100,000 people can resist a million heroes.

This time, the Wei army attacked, and the military intelligence report received by Emperor Chu was wrong.

Emperor Chu weighed the pros and cons, but did not want to send a forbidden army to defend it.

originally planned to use Wei to consume the troops in the hands of King Ning and King Yan.

But the information on this battlefield is obviously wrong.

It must be that the king of Qin returned to Beijing last time to bring 300,000 armor soldiers.

And right now, King Ning and King Yan do not send troops to help, and they obviously have a tacit political understanding.

The two of them knew that they were ready to let Emperor Chu's 300,000 forbidden troops die here.

And there is also the King of Qin in Yangzhou.

Even if the enemy army breaks through the city and drives straight in, then a battle with the King of Qin will definitely be a big setback.

At that time, if the coalition army wanted to break through Qingzhou and Jingzhou, it was a fantasy.

As for the 300,000 forbidden army and this Yangzhou City, it is not what the two princes think.

Moreover, this Yangzhou was originally the territory of the original Zhao State.

At the root, it is not close to this Chu country.

Su Xiu secretly sighed in his heart, this foreign enemy is coming to the city, but his side is still fighting inward, preserving his strength.

An Neng is undefeated.
