A Millennium Aristocratic Family Starting from the Shang Dynasty

Chapter 114
The Huai army did not continue to pursue, Jinhou Chong'er fled all the way in embarrassment, finally stopped in the country of Mao, and then regrouped the army.

"Zhuqing, this big defeat is my own fault, you don't have to worry about it!" After retreating all the way to the camp of the Kingdom of Mao, the Marquis of Jin took the responsibility first.

"Your Majesty, this big defeat is not a crime of war, what can I do if the fire of heaven descends into the world?" Hu Qing shook her head and said.

"Could it be that this Huai country is really blessed by destiny?" Zhao Qing said bitterly.

Wei Qing said: "It's not the destiny. If there was a destiny to protect him, he would not have been suppressed by King Wu in the past. It should be a coincidence, yes, it is a coincidence!"

Several people found excuses one after another, otherwise they would not be able to convince themselves that Huo Kuangfeng was too bizarre that day.

"How about the army casualties?" Chong Er asked.

"The casualties in the army were not high, but their morale was low and they were unable to fight anymore. The Huai country did not pursue them too far." Hu Qing shook his head and said.

Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that the Huai country did not do this sky fire. Otherwise, with such a great opportunity, how could I come here again today? I'm afraid I will be escorted to Huai'an!" Hu Qing comforted.

"This time, the morale is low, and the casualties are not small. We are no longer able to fight anymore. Let's retreat!" Jin Hou said.

After the victory of the Huai State, the army did not stay, and directly led the army back to help.Sun Shuao led the army to march quickly along the canal, and arrived in Weiyang in less than two days.At this time, the Chu Yue army was besieging Zhenjiang City. Zhenjiang was located in the south of the Yangtze River, opposite Weiyang across the river.

The moat outside Zhenjiang City is connected to the Yangtze River, and the Chu-Yue coalition forces can't cut it off at all, and there is also the Huai State Navy on the river.The Chu-Yue coalition forces besieged several times, but with the cooperation of the Huaiguo navy and the Zhenjiang garrison, they were defeated one after another.

Xiong Ling looked at Zhenjiang City with only [-] defenders in front of him, with a gloomy and terrifying expression.

The [-] troops of the Huai State were routed, but the Chuyue Allied Forces met a bloody blow in Zhenjiang City.

Zhenjiang is the throat of the Yangtze River guarded by the Huai State. If Zhenjiang is spared and wants to cross the river, it is tantamount to handing over the rear to the Huai State. Therefore, even if the Chu-Yue coalition forces hit the Yangtze River, they would not dare to cross the river.What's more, after crossing the river, there is Weiyang City on the opposite side.

Weiyang City is the same as Zhenjiang City, so Chu State can only capture at least one of these two places.

But Xiong Ling never expected that the mere 3000 people would block his [-] army here, making it difficult for him to advance an inch.

"The enemy has a navy to help, and the moat is so wide that our army can't cross it at all. The large army attacks, and there are huge boats to attack. Our army does not have a navy, how can we stop it?" Wen Shu, a doctor of Yue State, said.

"Why don't we use logging to connect them, and send a large army to besiege and forcefully burn down the big ship on the moat!" Xiong Ling's eyes flashed a hint of ruthlessness!
This approach is completely filled with human lives, and the casualties will be extremely shocking at that time, but if it succeeds, it can indeed burn the big ship.

"I can't wait any longer. If we wait for the Huai country to dispatch an army, we will have no chance!" Xiong Ling gritted his teeth and made a decision immediately.

The next day, the army attacked again, but it was different from before. This time the Chuyue coalition army carried wooden signs one after another.

The army used a wooden sign to cover them, and soon came to the moat, and then saw a large ship approaching, and arrows rained down for a while, causing heavy casualties to the soldiers of Chu and Yue, but the coalition forces of the two countries did not retreat. Arrows, connect those wooden signs with ropes.

These wooden signs had already been smeared with fire-igniting grease, and when the big ship came over, they immediately surrounded the wooden signs in a row.A group of people rushed forward and ignited the wooden sign. The Huaiguo navy wanted to evacuate, but found that the front and rear were blocked.

Seeing the big ship ignited, the morale of the Chuyue coalition forces was greatly boosted, and they immediately sent troops to attack Zhenjiang again.And just as the Chu-Yue allied forces were attacking, a large army had quietly landed by the river.

The vanguard Chen Yi commanded three thousand Tengjia soldiers to land first, and then rushed to the battlefield led by scouts.

Chen Yi also came from the public clan. His ancestor was the concubine son of Zijue, and his surname was changed to Chen. He was also a talent in the public clan of Huaiguo.

At this time, the battlefield was already heated up. The Chu and Yue countries could say that they were desperate to take Zhenjiang City. Seeing this situation, Chen Yi didn't talk nonsense.

The Chu-Yue allied forces never expected that there would be enemies attacking from the flanks, and before the battle formation could turn around, the Huai army had already rushed in front of them.All the three thousand Tengjia troops are the elite of the elite.

The army charged, and immediately threw away the helmets and armor of the central army of the Chuyue coalition army. The rattan armored army was like a sharp sword, easily piercing through the Chuyue coalition army formation.

Immediately afterwards, the Chuyue coalition army was like a group of lambs waiting to be slaughtered. Under the rush of the army, the Chuyue coalition army suffered countless casualties.

Chen Yi took the lead and broke through the army formation directly. "The big banner is there, charge with me!"

Chen Yi roared, and hundreds of soldiers around him followed closely behind, and everyone rushed forward as if they were overcoming waves.The guards around Dazhu saw that the Tengjia Army was so powerful, so they wanted to take Xiong Ling and Yuejun to evacuate.It's just that Xiong Ling firmly refused, and led the guards to personally kill these rattan armored troops.

As a result, as soon as they made contact, the Chu army was defeated, and Xiong Ling also died in the battle.Seeing this scene, Yue Jun didn't dare to stay at all, and fled under the leadership of the guards.

Chen Yi beheaded the general and seized the flag, and the Chuyue coalition army was in chaos. At this time, the follow-up army of the Huai army also arrived, the Chuyue coalition army collapsed, and the soldiers fled.

The Chu-Yue allied forces were defeated, and the Huai soldiers who had been retreating to Meili all attacked one after another. Along the way, they kept blocking, and the [-] allied forces suffered heavy casualties.Those who can escape back to the country of Yue do not have one out of ten.

At the same time when Chen Yi dispatched troops to deal with the Chu-Yue coalition forces, the Huai army dispatched on the other side. The Chu army, which was entangled with the Huai army in Handi, was caught off guard and was directly defeated. The [-] Chu army fell apart. The army fled through Chaoguo.

The Chu army suffered heavy losses, and the Chu army that attacked Zhongguo retreated overnight after learning the news of the Chu army's disastrous defeat.So far, out of 11 troops from Chu State, less than [-] were able to return home safely, which can be said to be exhausting.

After Huai State defeated Chu State, it did not pursue it. This time the battle was going on in Huai State, and Huai State suffered a lot of losses. At the same time, Wang Yue was seriously ill, so Huai State could not go to war at this time.

Therefore, after defeating the coalition forces, Sun Shuao led the army back.

After Wang Yue heard that the army had won, he finally felt relieved, and then sent someone to Zhongguo to send a message, and at the same time awarded rewards to those who did meritorious service.

Wang Yue has been dragging his sick body to deal with state affairs with the assistance of Sun Shuao, and at the same time began to arrange funeral affairs. After using the Divine Artifact of Destiny, Wang Yue felt that his time was running out.

The news that the Huai country defeated the overlord of the princes again spread quickly. Although the coalition of the princes was not wiped out this time, it still shocked the world.This made Huai state not have Zhou Tianzi to appoint Fang Bo, but almost all the vassal states believed that Huai state was the overlord of the princes.

After several decades, the Huai country once again dominated the world, and many small countries began to pay tribute to the Huai country.
