Rebirth of Wu Ba Spring and Autumn

Chapter 465
"Wu Jubei!"

"The end is here!"

"Immediately lead your troops to various places in the city to find the tunnels dug by the Wu army, fill them with open flames and poisonous smoke, and then fill them with soil to block them!"

"promise!"

Wu Jubei immediately led a group of Chu soldiers to the city.

Although it was difficult for the Chu army to react in a hurry, they couldn't hold back their large numbers. It was not difficult to find the tunnel dug by the enemy in a short time.

At this time, dozens of sharp soldiers from the Wu army had already rushed to the gate of the city, opened the gate, and fought with the soldiers of the nearby Chu army.

Shen Zhuliang didn't dare to be negligent, and personally led a thousand soldiers, while strangling the group of sharp Wu soldiers, he tried to close the city gate to prevent more enemies from entering the city.

Moreover, Shen Zhuliang could also guess the direction of the city gate that the Wu army was attacking, and there were more than one, so he decisively ordered all the Chu troops to gather at the city gate, and must stop the enemy from entering the city!

"kill!"

Inside and outside the city, the shouts of killing soared into the sky at this time, corpses were everywhere, and mourning was everywhere.

Following Qingji's order, the chariot soldiers were the first to bear the brunt and rushed into the city, but they couldn't hold back the soldiers of the Chu army inside who had already been waiting in full force, waiting for the Wu army to enter the pocket array!
Surrounding the various city gates, Wu Jun and Chu Jun fought fiercely.

In order to break into Suicheng, Qingji dispatched all the elites.

Gou Jian led the Huben army, Meng Ben led the Yulin army, and attacked from different city entrances, but they were blocked without exception.

"Fire arrows!"

"Shhhhhh!"

Whenever the soldiers of the Wu army rushed into the city, they would be shot and killed by the random arrows of the Chu army.

One Wu pawn after another was shot into a hedgehog, fell in a pool of blood, and died of exhaustion.

However, Wu Jun's fighting spirit is still tenacious.

They could only step over Pao Ze's body with red eyes, and rush towards the enemy opposite without fear of death.

While fierce battles were taking place at various gates of Suicheng, the soldiers of the Chu army in the city were also constantly looking for enemies who entered Suicheng through tunnels.

Whenever a tunnel exit was found, soldiers of the Chu army would rush forward, cut the enemy into pieces, and then pour dry firewood into the tunnel.

As soon as the fire is put down, a large amount of smoke is produced, which makes people choke and cough.

"Withdraw! Quickly withdraw!"

The generals of the Wu army in the tunnel quickly evacuated, but they couldn't hold back the speed of the smoke.

In order to poison these enemies to death, the Chu army took great pains.

A large amount of smoke can not only stun people, but even directly choke them to death, causing them to suffocate to death.

Every tunnel exit was filled in by the Chu army with shoveled soil.

Wu Jun's intentions have been fully exposed!
Outside the city, at the place where the central army of the allied forces stood, Qingji stood on the military chariot, leaning on the crossbar with one hand, looking forward to it.

Looking at the soldiers who died one after another, Qingji saw it in his eyes, and his heart was bleeding.

Whether it is the Yulin Army or the Huben Army, it is not easy for Wu Guo to train these sharp fighters.

Even if it is to kill ten enemies and kill one sharp soldier, it is not worth it in Qingji's opinion!

The setting sun is like blood.

The dense sound of war drums and the sound of shouting and killing resounded through the sky, continued until the evening.

After several hours of attack, the Wu army failed to break through the Chu army's defense line.

"Ming Jin, withdraw troops!"

Qingji slammed his fist on the crossbar and finally gave the order to retreat.

At this time, Qing Ji still maintained a certain degree of rationality more or less.

Because he knows that according to this method of warfare, both the enemy and the enemy will suffer from both sides.

However, the Chu army occupies a favorable location and people, and the coalition army is not as good.

Even Wu's most elite troops, the Huben Army and the Habayashi Army were defeated, Qingji did not pin his hopes on other troops.

……

Night falls.

The camp of the coalition army is inside the big tent of the Chinese army.

Qingji sits high on the commander-in-chief, and on the left and right sides are Sun Wu, Wu Zixu, Bo Tong and other generals, as well as Cai Houshen, Tang Jun Ji Cheng and other monarchs.

The expressions on everyone's faces were very dignified.

"Big Sima, how much food and grass do we have?"

Qingji asked aloud.

Sun Wu replied: "My lord, our army has run out of food and grass. Even if we kill horses to satisfy our hunger, we may not be able to last for three days..."

three days?

Qingji's mood became heavy again.

Now, the coalition forces have fallen into an unprecedented predicament, which can be described as a dilemma.

Originally, according to Sun Wu's previous strategy, he showed weakness to the Chu army and wanted to lure the Chu army in the city to come out.

But this doesn't work!
Shen Zhuliang knew very well that most of the Chu army were mobs, and in a frontal battle, they would definitely not be the opponents of the coalition forces.

Therefore, the Chu army still defended the city, preparing to wait for the coalition forces to retreat, or when the food and grass were really exhausted, and then send troops to deal a fatal blow.

Regarding Shen Zhuliang's intentions, Qingji and others could guess.

In order to take down Suicheng, Qingji even used tunnel warfare.

It was true that Shen Zhuliang did not see through Qingji's tactics beforehand, but Shen Zhuliang's reaction was very quick, and he was able to command the Chu army to fight back calmly.

What shocked Qingji and others the most was the Chu people's will to fight!

Several times, the Wu army had entered the city, engaged in fierce street fighting, and was finally stopped by the Chu army.

The coalition forces suffered heavy casualties, and the Chu army was also suffering. The battle losses were close to one to one.

Although Chu has three households, Qin must be killed by Chu!
Qingji could finally imagine how difficult the battle between Qin and Chu in history was.

Ordinarily, Chu State may look like a sick cat. He is often bullied by Wu State and wins more wars with less.

However, at this moment of life and death when the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed, the Chu people can still unite as one and deal a heavy blow to the invading enemy.

Chu State is not so easy to perish.

How can it be?

Ting Weibo got up quickly and said: "Your Majesty, retreat! The army is short of food and grass, and the war can no longer continue."

"There are really many deserters in our coalition army now, and people are panicking, so we can't fight!"

Hearing this, Qingji just frowned and didn't speak.

All the generals present said one after another: "Your Majesty, what Tingwei said is very true."

"Chu people are tenacious and invincible!"

"Chu's mountains and rivers have been broken, and its national strength has declined to the extreme. It can no longer be an enemy of our Wu country!"

"Your Majesty, the strategic goal of our country of Wu has been achieved. Your Majesty must not be eager for quick success, because a small loss is a big deal!"

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this battle cannot be fought.

Sun Wu's strategy before was weaker than that of the Chu army, so many soldiers fled, but Shen Zhuliang was not fooled at all.

Now the coalition forces are really unsustainable, and a large number of defeated troops have fled.

With such a weak morale, how can we fight?
"Great Sima, Doctor Yushi, what do you think?"

Qing Ji did not make a decision immediately, but set his sights on Sun Wu and Wu Zixu.

After the two looked at each other, Wu Zixu bit the bullet and said, "Your Majesty, if we retreat, our allied forces will certainly be defeated."

"Of course, as long as your Majesty and our troops from the headquarters of the Wu Kingdom can return to Jinling, and recuperate for a few years in the future, we can attack Chu again, and we will surely win the first battle!"

Sun Wu also said: "What the Yushi doctor said is very reasonable. Your Majesty, please think twice!"
