Honglou: This bastard is too persuasive.

Chapter 385 Jia Zheng failed, Wang Ziteng was in a dilemma
Jia Zheng didn't want to lead his men forward from here, because if he went in from here, he could easily make a lot of contributions. However, the order sent by Wang Zhicheng was to harm him, so when he heard that there were two layers of defense and a large army nearby, he spoke without hesitation.

"General Jia, please don't act on impulse. You should put the overall situation first. The general has told you to achieve certain results every day. We have been out for half a day now. If we don't act quickly, we may not achieve anything in the next half a day."

"So I think we should still enter the inland from this seaport. Even if there are more enemies, with our 30,000 troops, how can they be our opponents? We just need to rush over and destroy them. By then, killing thousands of enemies will be a great achievement."

But he had another idea in his mind.

So far in this war, the number of Tatars killed by their entire Northern Frontier Corps is limited.

He didn't believe that the Jia family could kill that family with just this one person. Even if there were ten times the number of troops on the ship, they couldn't do it. So letting this guy go forward was just to send him to his death.

Seeing that he had already said so, Jia Wei could only nod and agree. However, just as he agreed to turn around, a carrier pigeon flew out and quickly entered the first line of defense, among the soldiers guarding on both sides.

These soldiers were originally enemies, but after a period of infiltration, some of them have become our own people. Although the rest are not our own people, they can be easily controlled.

Jia Zheng didn't want to make any contribution yet, so he had no intention of continuing to kill people. Therefore, his order was very simple, that is, to let his own people here take all the others away, and not to appear on this battlefield in the future.

So following his order, the soldiers on the first line of defense were drugged and knocked unconscious by some of them just a quarter of an hour later, and then some people came out of the forest and carried these people away one by one.

Because these enemies abandoned the coast, many mines and forest areas along the coast were occupied by Jia Lun's men.

Nowadays, there are dozens of mines occupied by him in the coastal areas. These people were sent into the mines to help with mining and they are indeed a group of good hands.

The reason why I didn't move them before was to lure Taizu out, but now that Wang Ziteng wants to play, I will play with him.

When he received the information from his men, he was almost approaching the first line of defense. At this time, the person sent by Wang Ziteng was hiding in the cab excitedly, watching the situation outside.

"General Jia, didn't you say that the first line of defense is coming? Let's rush over, then land on the line of defense and destroy all the enemies."

"No problem, but there are too many enemies. It's not easy for us to log in, so it's inevitable that we will be injured. I hope you will be more careful and don't get into danger."

Jia Zheng didn't want these bastards to affect his plan, so he was already prepared. Half of the 1000 people were sent away, but the rest, according to the information, had already returned.

The people who came back and the people on the ship were all their own people. They cooperated with each other to bring Wang Zhicheng here, kill these people, and then transport some of their men away. It could be said that it was very easy.

So they quickly arrived at the first line of defense. The man sent by Wang Ziteng asked his men to protect him, and then looked at the iron chain blocking the front.

"General Jia, the enemy hasn't shown up yet. Let's first cut off the iron chain blocking the river, and then find a place to land and catch the enemy in one fell swoop."

"Okay, you're the one sent by the general. I'll listen to you. Let's get started now."

At Jia Wei's command, someone drove a boat towards the iron chain, ready to cut it. At this moment, countless hunters flew over from the two river banks. There were at least hundreds of them. "Enemy attack, everyone pay attention to safety and take cover."

"Oh no, there are enemies, everyone please be careful."

Accompanied by screams, everyone on the boat began to hide, but because the rain of swords was too dense, hundreds of people were injured, and some of them even fell on the boat.

The person sent by Wang Ziteng was also shocked by what was happening around him. The dozen or so people around him were all shot to death.

If someone hadn't stopped him, he would have been dead by now.

But just now, two people fell towards him one after another, one knocked him down, and the other pressed directly on his legs, breaking his leg bones.

Before he could even howl, Jia Yan, the commander-in-chief of the three armies, immediately ordered everyone to retreat.

After retreating to a safe distance, he hurried over and said with a sad face.

"These bastards are too difficult to deal with. They divided the entire territory into several sections, and set up iron chains and ropes in each section that is not convenient for climbing. This makes it too difficult for us to pass through."

"And you've seen the situation this time. If we insist on landing on their territory, I'm afraid that there won't be many left alive."

"We have lost so many people and we don't have the ability to continue fighting, so we might as well retreat immediately. Otherwise, you may be lucky this time, but you may not be lucky next time."

When the person sent by Wang Ziteng heard this, he nodded repeatedly.

This time he almost lost his life, and he didn't want to continue the action, so he quickly agreed and asked everyone to leave together.

After returning to his fatigue, he immediately sent a message to Wang Ziteng, attributing all the failure to Jia Lun.

Jia Zheng was actually happy to see this happen. He was not afraid of anything now, and after this failure, it would not be so easy to use himself as an excuse again.

Sure enough, after receiving the news, Wang Ziteng was a little depressed. He wanted to kill this guy, but he didn't expect to kill a lot of his men. If he let him continue to attack, he was afraid that others would say that he was deliberately targeting him.

Then the gain outweighs the loss.

"Originally, since he failed this time, I had every reason to dismiss him and prevent him from controlling the army on the island. But if I dismiss him, it would be even more difficult to use the terrain there to target him."

"So he still has to keep his position. Not only does he have to keep his position, but we also have to find a way to let him continue to attack."
