Chapter 31 Impossible, absolutely impossible

A perfect raid...

In the final analysis, there are two points, one is checkpoints, and the other is food.

Both of these points were clearly understood by the Shu army.

This is Cheng Huaili's sophistication, and also Zheng Song's negligence.

In any case, this attack on the camp caused heavy losses to the Miao Jiang side.

After counting in the early morning, more than half of the food and grass were burned, and thousands of soldiers died under the iron hooves and fire.

In addition, there are many deserters.

Some soldiers in embarrassment were cleaning up the mess.

Zheng Song looked at everything in front of him, the corners of his eyes were red.

His face was blackened by the flames, but it could be seen that he was very angry at the moment.

Zheng Song didn't expect that the Shu army, who had been guarding for a long time, would suddenly attack the camp. Even though he had already set up a checkpoint, the scouts should have taken over the checkpoint.

Turning his head to look in Zitong's direction, Zheng Song clenched his fists tightly. He swore that when Zitong was defeated, the old man would be cut into pieces!

However, for now, they are still unable to break through Zitong, and can only wait for the news from Changjing.

The dust should have settled in Changjing now, right?
Zheng Song frowned, vaguely feeling something was wrong.

A few days ago, he learned that Wang Ah sent troops from Zhenyuan to Changjing. Logically speaking, he should have taken it, right?

Even if the reinforcements from the Kingdom of Shu arrive, there will be no news at all.

Thinking this way in my heart, I still feel a little worried about Wang Ana's army all the way, and after the matter here is settled, I will go back and deal with Changjing.

Yesterday's loss was huge, mainly due to food and supplies, and more than half of the loss prevented them from continuing to contain Zitong.

Now either retreat and wait for the follow-up supplies from Yangxu City, or return to Yangxu City.

This is also what made Zheng Song uncertain.

However, not long after, a soldier from Yangxu City disrupted all of this.

I saw that the soldier was very embarrassed, his face was covered with dust, and he almost fell down when he knelt down to him.

"Big, handsome..."

The soldier looked flustered, seeing Zheng Song as if he saw the backbone, and said in a hurry: "Yangxu City is besieged by the Shu army, please come to the rescue—"

"what??"

When Zheng Song heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He grabbed the soldier by the shoulder, stared at him, and asked fiercely, "What did you say?"

"The Shu army besieged Yangxu City..."

Hearing this sentence again, Zheng Song took a few steps back, only to feel a "boom" in his brain, repeating at the top: "Impossible, impossible..."

Walking back and forth twice, pointing at this soldier, gritted his teeth and said, "Where did the Shu army come from? There is Wang Ah's [-] army in Zhenyuan! How could the Shu army jump over Zhenyuan and besiege Yangxu City?"

The soldier looked at Zheng Song in shock, and then said: "Commander, Zhenyuan is lost! General Wang A died in battle, and the entire army of [-] was wiped out."

Those three words, like three heavy hammers, struck Zheng Song's heart, making him take a step back.

Wang Ah is dead?

Thirty thousand troops are gone?
Zhenyuan... Zhenyuan is also lost?

Do not!impossible!
Absolutely impossible!
His chest kept rising and falling. Zheng Song pointed at the soldier and said angrily: "You are lying! You are the secret agent of the Shu army! It must be the secret agent of the Shu army!"

That is an army of 3!That's [-] people!

He would rather believe that the person in front of him is a spy than believe that the [-] army will be completely wiped out.

"Big guy!"

The soldier knelt down, tears could not stop falling down: "The Shu army tricked and lured General Wang to advance lightly. General Wang was ambushed, and the [-] army was gone! Zhenyuan is not strong enough to withstand the attack of the Shu army! Zheng Zhou The general died in battle, and now the Shu army is going to take Yangxu City in one go!"

"..."

The words like a sharp knife pierced into Zheng Song's heart.

If this is true, isn't he now...

Stiffly put down his hand, and took two steps forward in an erratic manner, Zheng Song felt his world spinning for a while, his eyes went dark, and he fell to the ground.

"Big guy!"

"Master—"

The movement on Zheng Song's side naturally attracted the attention of the soldiers nearby. Seeing Zheng Song fainted, several soldiers quickly helped him up and called out several times, which made Zheng Song wake up leisurely.

"……Forehead--"

Zheng Song slowly opened his eyes, only to feel that his brain was blank, and he felt better after a while. He slowly turned his head to look at the soldier, stood up with force, and said in a much weaker voice, "Why don't I know these things? information……"

This is so strange, why didn't he know this until now!Logically speaking, shouldn't this be told to him immediately?
"Subordinates don't know—"

The soldier cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Zhao only asked his subordinates to quickly report to the general."

As he spoke, he took out the secret letter and handed it to Zheng Song.

Zheng Song took the secret letter with trembling hands, opened it and leaned on the content, which was exactly the same as what the soldier said.

It was Yangxu City that was in a hurry, and they also said that Zhenyuan was lost, and the Shu army wanted to take Yangxu City first...

Unable to conceal the anger in his heart, Zheng Song kneaded the cloth into a ball and pinched it in the palm of his hand.

Thirty thousand troops!Thirty thousand!
His heart was bleeding, the [-] troops were very important to him, and he trusted Wang Ah so much that he fell into the enemy's tricks!
"The thief!"

Then, with the support from the left and right, he stood up slowly, and then raised his voice: "The whole army retreats, rescue Yangxu City!"

This is his only choice!

If Yangxu City is lost again, they will have no logistical support, and the remaining food and grass will not be enough.

After hearing this, the left and right went down immediately to deliver the order, and Zheng Song turned to the soldier and asked, "Do you know who the general of the reinforcements from Shu is?"

"The third son of Shu."

I can't remember the exact name, but I only remember it was the third son.

"Son..."

Shu royal family!
Gritting his teeth, Zheng Song closed his eyes. Now the situation in Miao Jiang has taken a turn for the worse, thanks to this person!
Burning with anger in his heart, it took a long while before he waved his hand to let the soldier retreat. Zheng Song looked at the cloth in his hand.

"Zhao Zhi, what trick are you playing?"

He suddenly felt a little naive.

Zhao Zhi could betray Shu and Wang Han, why couldn't he betray him?Obviously, he was suppressing the news and not letting himself know.

Now that the Shu army is besieging the city, I am in a hurry and ask myself for help.

How dare I trust him so much!He even made small moves in private, I hate this kind of person the most!

But who could he defect to if he betrayed himself?Back to Shu again?How could it be possible, would the kingdom of Shu believe in this kind of grass?
Unable to figure it out, Zheng Song put away the cloth, no matter what, he had to go back to rescue Yangxu City. This was related to the life and death of the entire Miao soldiers, and he had no other choice.

Now, Wang Ah is dead...

Zheng Zhou is dead...

The second brother also died...

These people he trusted all left one by one. Could it be that he chose the wrong path?

No, I just want the Miaojiang people to live better, what's wrong?
