Chapter 772: Abandon the city and go north

The order to retreat after dawn was undoubtedly to wipe out Jiankang's 200,000 defenders, and the King Kong Cannon also saw through my intentions, looked at me suspiciously, wanted to speak but did not speak, hesitated for a moment and turned to sweep down.

I can guess what King Kong Cannon wants to say, and he must be dissatisfied with my use of everyone as pawns. At this point, I finally understood the frustration of the phrase "a successful battle", as a commander, if you want to win the war, you have to make many decisions that you don't want to make, most of these soldiers have wives and children, and their families will be devastated by their deaths, and their parents have lost their sons and have nothing to support them. The wife loses her husband and becomes a widow. Young children lose their fathers and have no one to care for them. I can imagine all this, but I still have to send these soldiers to their deaths, because each man has a different mission, my mission is to clear the way for the golden dragon to ascend to the throne, and their mission is to die here.

Ye Aofeng is driving the beasts to attack aggressively, he controls the beasts with aura, although the spell of the Tongding Tianshu is extremely mysterious, but it is not easy for Ye Aofeng to control such a large number of beasts, he also knows that after these beasts die, he will completely lose the capital to turn the tables, so he also cherishes these beasts very much, in the middle of the night, Ye Aofeng changed his strategy, he transferred the beasts that were originally in front of him back, and sent the slow-moving snakes and insects, although these snakes and insects are small in size, but they are highly poisonous, and they are more dangerous than large beasts with fangs and claws。

"Pour out black oil and set it on fire. "Seeing this, I shouted, I had already guessed that Ye Aofeng would switch to snakes and insects when the large beasts began to retreat, he currently has many different beast scales and insects, and he can change the 'class' at any time.

At this time, there was naturally nothing to ignite, and the black oil was poured directly on the corpses of wild beasts and soldiers, and only set fire to the colorful poisonous snakes after swimming closer, so as to block the poisonous snakes from swimming.

The golden immortal no longer needed to breathe, but he could still smell the scorching stench, which disgusted me, so I raised a few feet to avoid the smoke.

The reserves of black oil were not very large, and after burning for half an hour, the flames were extinguished, and the number of snakes and insects burned to death was uncountable. After the fire was extinguished, Ye Aofeng took advantage of the situation to urge the poisonous snake to enter the city, parade through the streets and alleys, climb the beams on the house, chase and entangle, and do evil wantonly.

The venom stored by each poisonous snake is limited, and there is basically no venom after biting several people, but poisonous snakes are different from wasps, which will die after stinging, and after poisonous snakes bite people, they will still run around, and everyone can not distinguish which poisonous snakes' venom has been used up, so they can only shout and cry and scatter to dodge. There are many people who are not bitten to death, but scared to death.

"Old Yu, withdraw. Seeing that the situation was out of control, King Kong Cannon wanted to evacuate again.

"Retreat to the middle city and set fire to the outer city. I muttered for a moment before I spoke. Jiankang's urban layout is similar to Beijing's, divided into three cities, inside and outside, and most of the people living in the outer city are ordinary people, so I still want to kill as many wild beasts as possible.

"How will you break through then?" said King Kong Cannon with a frown. The enemy was attacking from all sides, and if they retreated to Midtown, it would be difficult to break through after dawn.

"Retreat to Midtown. I shouted again.

"Old Yu, what do you want to do? Learn from Cao Cao?" Seeing that I was stubborn, King Kong Cannon couldn't help but ask angrily.

"What can I do, I won't let them die, but the Sui Dynasty will build the capital in Chang'an in the future, and the last time Chang'an has been seriously destroyed, we can't get the main battlefield to Chang'an, we must kill as many of these beasts as possible from here. I shook my head and explained to the Vajra Cannon. Hearing this, the Vajra Cannon sighed again and again, and turned down to carry out my orders.

I don't know what kind of scene Xiang Yu set on fire to the Afang Palace, but the fires caused by the ignition of the entire outer city of Jiankang made me feel that I had committed a serious crime, I was born here once upon a time, and now I have destroyed it with my own hands.

In the early hours of the morning, everyone began to break through to the north, the modern troops of the King Kong Cannon opened the way in front, the soldiers guarded the left and right, and the civilians were in the center.

After breaking through the siege, after the soldiers were broken, Chen Qian and others and the residents of the city fled north.

"Cao Cao has a good heart. "Seeing that I was always holding a white-haired old woman, King Kong Cannon couldn't help but sneer, because I had made him very prejudiced against me because I had fought the soldiers in the city before.

I did not reply, but reached out and grabbed a carriage and helped the white-haired old woman to sit down.

"Take care of a good life, and there must be no mistakes. I said to the groom. Hearing this, the latter looked at the almost stupid old woman who had been frightened suspiciously, and nodded in agreement.

"Are you Feng'er?" the old woman finally relieved herself after getting into the carriage, and looked up at me with dazed eyes.

I nodded slowly when I heard this, I know this old woman with patches in her clothes, if the Xu family didn't break the contract back then, she would be my mother-in-law.

"Regret shouldn't have been. When Mother Xu saw me nodding, she couldn't help crying and crying.

"After arriving in Chang'an, send it to the right prime minister's mansion. I replied to the groom. Mother Xu was still good to me back then, but the bad thing was Xu Zhaopei's father. After the fall of the Liang Dynasty, her life was also very miserable, I can't let her be miserable anymore, I still clearly remember when I was young, I went to Xu Mansion to play, and she would give me snacks every time. Reminiscing about the past is like a lifetime.

"Do you know that old woman?" After the carriage took Mother Xu away, King Kong Cannon turned his head to look at Mother Xu suspiciously.

"How much aura do you have left?" I didn't answer King Kong Cannon's words, Xu Mu has lived a very hard life since the fall of the Liang Dynasty, where is there still the look of the general's wife, and it is reasonable that King Kong Cannon can't recognize her.

"Fifty percent. King Kong Cannon replied with an eyebrow.

"Fifty percent of fifty percent, right?" I smiled bitterly and shook my head, although I didn't have the number of King Kong Cannon myself, but it was roughly estimated that he only had two percent of his aura left.

"It's okay, I've run out of aura and I still have a gun. "The King Kong cannon flicked the rifle over his shoulder.

"Retreat. I shook my head. The previous battle of health had successfully achieved my intended goal, and the herd had lost five to sixty percent. However, the reduction of the beast herd made the beast herd move faster, and the reason why this situation occurred was because Ye Aofeng could concentrate more on controlling these beasts.

There were less than 10,000 soldiers who broke through from Jiankang, and these people were still struggling to survive, and they were extremely tired from the whole night of fighting, but they were still fighting hard and trying their best to resist under the support of the desire to survive.

At noon, Zheng Zheng was ordered to rush from Qizhou to support, and at this time, only 2,000 of Nan Chen's 200,000 soldiers and horses remained......
