Chapter 57 Daotuo
At this time in Shaoliang Mansion, Ding Shaoling had mobilized the whole city.

He didn't need to say anything more, some people who fled back from Linggu City had already finished speaking for him.

Prior to this, the special envoy of Kang Guo also sent a corpse. The man had been disembowelled, his internal organs were gone, and his eyes had been gouged out.

This person was officially the guard of Linggu City, and his death was extremely miserable.

In anger, Ding Shaoling killed the special envoy who brought the corpse.

The two countries are at war, if you don't kill them...

He did it right away, and Ding Shaoling couldn't turn back at this time, so he could only grit his teeth and fight desperately.

The people who fled back one after another brought great panic to the Shaoliang Mansion.

In their descriptions, the soldiers of the state of Kang were like monsters, invulnerable, fierce and brutal.

At first, the soldiers of Shaoliang Mansion were extremely terrified, until later, seeing more and more corpses, Kang Guo's actions made them gradually understand.

If you stick to it, you may survive, if you surrender, there is really only one dead end!
The people in Shaoliang Mansion showed unprecedented unity.

then……

"Kang Guo retreated?"

Ding Shaoling looked at the minister in front of him, his eyes were astonished, and there was also a little surprise.

"Yes."

The minister couldn't help showing a smile on his face, and cupped his hands at Ding Shaoling: "My lord, after Kang Guo broke through Linggu City, it retreated!"

retreat...

retreat...

This voice kept echoing in Ding Shaoling's ears. After an unknown amount of time, Ding Shaoling who was standing on the main hall felt his legs go limp, and he sat on the ground with his ass, without the slightest demeanor of a king.

Ding Shaoling only felt that a big rock had been removed, and he was finally able to breathe heavily.

"God bless me, Shaoliang—"

Tears fell from the corners of his eyes, Ding Shaoling couldn't help saying: "God bless...God bless..."

He was already prepared for a deadly battle, but now that Kang Guo is retreating, doesn't that mean he doesn't have to die?

After a long time, Ding Shaoling stood up slowly, tidied up his appearance, looked at the courtiers who were equally happy in front of him, and asked, "Why did Kang Guo withdraw its troops?"

"The Heavenly Soldiers from the Kingdom of Shu are here."

The courtier said happily: "The king of Shu took the young master Bai as the main general, and sent 30 troops to rescue Shaoliang. Within three days, he went to dozens of cities in the Kingdom of Kang..."

"The Heavenly Soldiers of the Kingdom of Shu?"

Ding Shaoling was slightly taken aback, pacing back and forth in the hall, the more he thought about it, the more pleasantly surprised he became.

No wonder... no wonder...

Gulib can spit out the meat in his mouth, and only Shu has such a deterrent power.

Slowly raising his head and looking in the direction of Jinguan City, Ding Shaoling's voice came out slowly, with a hint of emotion in his voice.

"It's an honor to be the dog of Dashu..."

Dogs are not unbearable in Southwestern legends, but are similar to a kind of servant and a representative of loyalty.

The courtiers at the bottom also looked in the direction of Jinguan City with emotion when they heard the words, and nodded slightly to express their approval.

……

The guard of Qucheng was named Daotuo, who was a native of Mengmao, followed Gulib for a long time, and was later appointed as the guard of Qucheng.

His leadership ability is good, the reason why he didn't follow Gulib in the north and south is because he is too old, how can he make meritorious service in the battlefield at the age of sixty?
Daotuo himself was very satisfied with this arrangement.

Decades of military service had exhausted him both physically and mentally, and it was his wish to have a stable job in his later years.

It is already a great blessing to be able to retreat unscathed by the side of a lord like Gulib.

Daotuo was able to receive such treatment because he followed Gulib very early, and Gulib trusted him relatively.

It's just that Gulib's ambitions seem to be getting bigger and bigger. This time he conquered the Shaoliang Kingdom regardless of the consequences, and it is very likely that he will be backlashed.

Dao Tuo's worries turned into reality in the first moment-the Shu army is coming.

The speed of the Shu army was really beyond expectations, making Kang's victory in Shaoliang fall short.

Daotuo knew the Shu Kingdom better, because he was a veteran who participated in the Battle of Kangshu, and the strategy of setting up an ambush for the Shu army came from him.

That ambush made a very deep impression on him.

For the first time, Dao Tuo saw an army that could organize a formation in a short period of time after being ambushed, and was able to break out of the encirclement.

After coming over, I found out that this is the elite army of the Shu Kingdom. Fortunately, it was swallowed by an ambush strategy. If faced with such a Shu army, it would be extremely difficult for the Kingdom of Kang to win head-on.

Now, the army of the Kingdom of Shu crossed the city of Xu, as if there was no one in the land.

For the current plan, we can only send a letter to Gu Libu who is far away in Shaoliang, hoping that he can return to the teacher as soon as possible.

Dao Tuo looked at the military newspaper at Daliang Pass, his wrinkled face was withered and yellow, and his hand holding the bamboo slips trembled.

At present, the army of the Shu Kingdom is on the front line of Daliang Pass, and the several times of attacking the city have been guarded by Daliang Pass, and the Shu army cannot advance half a step.

However, at this time, Daliang Pass was in a hurry, and its own defenses were insufficient, and it was still facing the siege of more than [-] troops from the Shu army.

"Ugh……"

Rubbing his head, Dao Tuo's heart was a little exhausted at this time, and a feeling of weakness came over him.

He is still old, and if he goes back 20 years, he will definitely mount his sword and go to Daliang Pass to meet the Shu army in person.

Now, he just wants to be quiet for a while while he is alive...

Putting the army report on the table, Daotuo rubbed his swollen forehead, then slowly lay down on the couch, trying to close his eyes and take a rest.

But he couldn't fall asleep again, and the anxiety in his heart made him unable to fall asleep.

"General!"

At this time, a soldier walked in from the door.

The dazed Dao Tuo looked up, only to see a vague figure, with his mouth open, as if something was stuck in his throat, and his speech was a little vague: "What's the matter?"

The little soldier looked panicked, couldn't stand upright and knelt down on the ground, and said in a panic: "The Shu army has arrived at the city!"

Shu army?
What Shu Army?
Daotuo's dizzy head couldn't react for a while.

After looking at the soldier for a long while, after the soldier repeated it, Dao Tuo slowly came back to his senses.

Isn't the Shu army at Daliang Pass?

Supporting his body, Daotuo staggered to his feet and asked, "Shu Army? Where did the Shu Army come from?"

How could the soldier answer?He could only shake his head in a panic.

Could it be that the Daliang Pass was lost?
Regardless of his old body, Dao Tuo quickly walked up to the tower.

I saw a group of Shu troops arriving at some unknown time, marching forward in array, that kind of power and influence was never possessed by Kang's army.

Daotuo's drowsy head couldn't think about how the Shu army came, he only had one thought in his mind now.

"The whole army obeys orders! Defend Qucheng!"

His voice was hoarse and deep, old and weak, and the surrounding defenders couldn't hear Daotuo's words clearly for a while.

"Defend the city!"

Turning his head, those cloudy eyes stared closely at the defenders, like an old lion.

"Yes!"

……

　The stomach hurts too much, I took painkillers, the next update will depend on the situation, if I can update it, I will definitely update it, I hope everyone understands.
