I am a nobleman in Spring and Autumn

Chapter 271 Enough for Zhi Shi
Zhiyao's approach was to send people to spread the news of Qi's disobedience to the alliance, while the other side began to consider withdrawing from the siege.

It's not anticlimactic, Zhiyao never thought about killing Fu Chai, how many Wu Jun can be wiped out depends purely on how cooperative the other party can be.

When the Wu army fought against the Qi army, the Wu side lost [-] to [-] to [-], and the Qi army lost [-] to [-]. The losses of soldiers on both sides are actually very heavy, not to mention the loss of other materials.

There was no such thing as the Jin State sending troops here. In fact, Qi State was once again weakened by the level of injury, and Wu State also ended up with a bit of a serious injury.

"The Wu army we eliminated here is about [-]? The Wu army eliminated on the periphery is about [-]." Zhiyao has been counting, but the data is really not accurate.

In this way, counting the loss of the Wu army fighting the Qi army, the [-] Wu army has lost more than [-] men in the first half a year of going north.

It has been more than a month since Zhiyao and his army arrived at "Ai Ling", how could they eliminate about [-] Wu troops on the battlefield here?In fact, this is the benefit of Fuchai's stronghold.

Because of the existence of the hard stronghold, the Jin army only took advantage of its unpreparedness in the early stage to take advantage of it. Later, the biggest loss of the Wu army was that Zhan Ru's three thousand Wu army was wiped out. The rest of the time, regardless of the fact that they have been fighting, the casualties on both sides are actually not the same. not big.

Zhiyao has the casualty data of Zhishi's participating troops in hand, 27 people died in the battle, [-] people were seriously injured, and no serious statistics were made for minor injuries.

In fact, after Zhiyao trained a group of first-aid personnel on the battlefield, unless Zhiyao's soldiers died on the spot, they were not fatally injured and were of the salvable type. They could receive relatively good treatment, and the death rate was greatly reduced.

Of course, there is also a relationship between the excellent protective gear and the sharpness of the weapon. If the casualties are heavy every time, what is the use of Zhiyao's efforts for more than ten years.

Not only did the Wei family not send Zhiyao the casualty report from the headquarters, but neither did the Hu family.In fact, they should report to Zhiyao every day, lest Zhiyao miscalculate the number of soldiers they can fight and issue some wrong orders.

The crux of the problem is that this is the case in the Jin country, and so are the other countries. Unless the general asks, otherwise he will not take the initiative to bring it up.

"Go to the Lord and tell the camp to go north." Zhiyao was instructing Taihu.

There are other people in the tent, if there are others, Zhiyao will not say that.

This is Zhiyao's feeling that there is really no need to continue the fight, and it will be the last attempt to carry out this battle. Before doing anything, we must ensure Zhishen's safety.

What last attempt?It's nothing more than that Zhiyao is more concerned about the family, and doesn't want Qi to retake the "Tan" land, so she wants to use the withdrawal of troops to seduce Fucha in the end.

The order from Zhiyao was passed on to the Wei family.

"Withdraw?" Wei Ju was surprised after hearing the order.

They still don't know what's going on in Qi State, but they only know that the situation of the Wu army here is getting worse and worse, and they think that if they continue to besiege, they will have a chance to wipe out this group of Wu troops.

Jian Bo said, "Maybe there is a change somewhere."

Regarding the fact that "Ai Ling"'s Qi army ran away and was wiped out by the Zhi family, the Wei family still knew.

Coupled with the fact that the Zhi family took over the land of "Tan" from the Qi State, Wei Ju's face became a little ugly after sorting it out.

It was agreed to fight for the restoration of Jin's hegemony. Once it is related to one's own interests, the national interests are put aside!
When Wei Ju's anger was accumulating little by little, suddenly Zhiyao came over in person.

"Why withdraw the troops?" Wei Ju asked with a smile.

Zhiyao showed a dumbfounded smile, and said: "Ju definitely thinks that Yao is withdrawing troops for the land of 'Tan'. If Ju thinks so, Fu Chai must also think so."

Wei Ju: "..."

Isn't it to keep the land of "Tan"?
So yes, Zhiyao said it himself, which made Wei Ju a little suspicious.

Next, Zhiyao talked a lot to Wei Ju, first of all, Wu Jun's fortified stronghold would cause great casualties if he really stormed the Jin army, and secondly, Qi's unclear attitude would put them in a more dangerous situation.

"To lure Wu's army out of the stronghold, to find an opportunity to turn back and fight?" Wei Ju understood.

Zhiyao said: "Yao thought that Lord Wu must still stay in the camp, so he surrounded Wu's army and sided the division. If Wu's army didn't go to rescue him, he wouldn't leave the camp? This battle is all over."

Wei Ju thought about it, but he didn't want to admit it, but he knew that Zhiyao's decision was right.

This has something to do with whether the Zhi family wants to protect the newly acquired "Tan" from death. The problem is that if Wu Jun is too clumsy, they really don't need to pay a huge price for casualties.

"In this battle, Wu State lost more than [-] troops, and Qi State's [-] army was almost wiped out." Zhiyao still didn't mention the Lu army.

It's not that they look down on the Lu army, it's that Lu has nothing to make Jin look up to.

Although Wei Ju still felt that Zhiyao looked after Gu Zhishi's interests, he had already been persuaded by Zhiyao.

"In all fairness, there is nothing to blame for Zhiyao's achievement of this step. He has far more cared about the national interest than the previous 'Yuan Rong' and even the heads of various families." Wei Ju admitted this in his heart.

Wei Ju's view can be regarded as a kind of comparison. There are too many bad people, so Zhiyao is not the worst one.

So, if the Zhi family wants to keep the "Tan" land, can it still take into account the interests of Jin?

Want to withdraw troops, right?The Jin army certainly didn't just withdraw as soon as they said they would retreat, and even stepped up their attack on the Wu army's camp from three directions before retreating, so as to ensure that the scheduling and preparations would not be spied on by the Wu army.

Faced with the sudden strengthening of the Jin army's offensive, the Wu people, including Fu Chai, felt something was obviously wrong.

"Reinforcements must be approaching!" Ru Cao said the most likely guess.

The external news has not been sent to them for a long time, and the Jin army has not significantly reduced its personnel. For the time being, it is not clear that several partial divisions have been wiped out by the Jin army.

Feng Tong said with a puzzled expression: "My lord, if there is reinforcements, they will arrive ten days before. Why..."

In fact, if there were reinforcements, given the distance between them and the divisions, they should have arrived 20 days earlier if they were quick.

However, those Wu troops were fighting against the Qi army, and they needed to make relevant preparations in advance if they wanted to retreat, so they would be delayed for some time.

Fucha didn't speak.

The complexions of many Wu Jun generals suddenly became a little ugly.

Do you think that everyone is a fool, only Fengtong is a big smart?They just felt that the more frustrated they should say at such a time, that's all.

"The State of Qi will take advantage of the situation to seize 'Tan'?" Fu Chai asked thoughtfully.

Although the "Tan" land is vast and sparsely populated, it is extremely important to the Qi State in terms of geographical location. Once the "Tan" land is lost, the upper reaches of Jishui will become an enclave.

The upper reaches of Jishui River is where the textile industry of Qi State is concentrated, not to mention that it is also the place where raw silk is produced. Without the upper reaches of Jishui River, Qi State should change from a giant walking on two legs to jumping on one leg. .

legs?Textile and salt making are the two legs of Qi State, and the loss of one of them will cause a fatal blow to Qi State's finances.

Fucha has already thought about how to get along with Qi after this battle, and he knows how difficult it is to challenge Jin.

"After returning to China, we must immediately form an alliance with Qi State, and then squeeze Yue State, Ju State, and Song State as much as possible..." Fu Chai thought.

At present, the State of Yue is a subsidiary state of the State of Wu, the State of Ju relies on the breath of the State of Wu, and the State of Song has to move closer to the State of Wu because it is afraid of the crusade by the State of Jin.

On a certain morning.

Fu Chai was woken up in a daze. He didn't hear too much detail before. He heard that the Jin army did not attack the camp as usual, and there seemed to be many flying birds in the camp. He was completely awake all of a sudden!

"Zhiyao is my great enemy!" Fu Chai said sullenly.

The "wu" refers to the state of Wu.

Seize the opportunity to bring the army to the battlefield between the Wu army and the Qi army, and suddenly let the Wu army's plan to wipe out the Qi army go bankrupt. If there is any difference, he made a decisive decision and retreated without any nostalgia.Such a person is not the enemy of Wu, who is?

Now, what Fu Chai needs to think about is whether to withdraw the troops and return to the country, or to gather the rest of the troops and find a place to sit there, waiting to see if the Qi Congress will immediately fight the Jin army.

Recruit a new army from home?There is still a reserve team of [-] in the country of Wu, and it can be done by squeezing out another [-].

Later, Fu Chai received a report that the Jin army was fighting a large army of its own [-] miles away.

Fu Chai originally wanted to continue stationing to look for opportunities, but when he heard about it, he did not hesitate, and ordered: "Abandon the camp immediately and retreat!"

They didn't even clean up the camp, and used some of the facilities that had been arranged to trap the Jin army. They threw some torches everywhere, and the camp that had already piled firewood immediately became a raging fire, and then spread to the rest of the camp.

Zhiyao, who was controlling the rhythm of the battlefield, suddenly saw the black smoke rising in the distance. It was a pity and a blessing to check the distance and then identify the direction.

"Yao!" Wei Ju bent over ninety degrees to Zhiyao.

What is this for?

"Fortunately, there is Yao, so that the enemy's trickery will not succeed. In the future, Yao will give instructions, so Ju will not be suspicious!" Wei Ju was really afraid.

During the three-sided attack, Wei's unit was controlled by Zhiyao again and again so that there was no mang. Now seeing the black smoke in the distance, and looking at the density of the black smoke, it is impossible to guess that Mang will be burned if he enters.

But Zhiyao was thinking: "As expected of Wu people, if you want to play fire attack in the camp, you can play it, don't be afraid that you will get rid of it!"

On the other hand, Zhiyao was thinking about whether to send Fox's horse alone to try to bite Wu Jun, but gave up after a second thought.

In this battle, the Hu family lost the most troops.

Furthermore, if Fu Chai dared to do that, it was obvious that there was a follow-up arrangement, unless the Jin army could catch up with the whole army at the speed of marching, and the number of people who went there would definitely have to deliver food.

Of course, Zhiyao still thinks that this battle is enough. Proper preservation of Wu's army is conducive to local balance.

The reality is that once the Wu army is really wiped out here, or if Fucha is accidentally killed, it is impossible for the Jin army to send troops to the Wu country at this stage, and it will become a new opponent that the Jin country is cultivating for itself with more vigor. .

This time, the Zhi family has already obtained the greatest benefits, so Zhiyao must let the other families take advantage of it, otherwise who would want to have fun with the Zhi family in the future?
"I should continue to manage the Qi State. The Wei family, the Hu family and other families can go to the Lu State to have fun." Zhiyao thought.
