Dragon map of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 549 The Situation Reversal Part [-]

Nanxiang County.

The battle was in full swing, and the city wall was crumbling under the onslaught of the Nanyang Army. Facing the fierce attack of the Nanyang Army soldiers outside the city, the remaining soldiers of the Violent Bear Army on the city wall were already in danger.

"Hold on!"

"There is a gap in the west wall, and the enemy army has come in!"

"Get it back for me, pile up the stones, and pile up the gap!"

"The city gate is going to be overwhelmed!"

"Length the wood from the inside, it's dead!"

"Bows and arrows, there are almost no bows and arrows!"

"The workshops in the city have already been rushed to the top. If you don't have a bow and arrow, go straight up and fight. No matter what, you must not let the enemy climb to the top of the city!"

"..."

The shouts one after another on the city wall were extremely loud among the voices of the golden horses and iron horses.

The manpower was exhausted at times, and although the morale was strong, the city wall still seemed a bit precarious in the face of the enemy's strong attack, and countless soldiers were exhausted, almost exhausting their last strength in fighting.

"The Nanyang army is really crazy. The attack in the past two days has been so fierce. If this continues, we may not be able to stop it for three days!"

Zhou Cang clenched his fists and stared at the city. This tide-like attack made him wonder if the Nanyang Army was crazy. Such an attack without fear of death meant that both sides would suffer and die together?
If Zhou Cang could understand the mood of Lei Bo, the captain of the Nanyang army outside the city at this moment, he might not think so.

……

Outside the city, Lei Bo stood in the wooden shed on the nearest battlefield, staring intently at the battlefield ahead, watching soldiers climbing up the ladder and being smashed down again, watching carts approaching the city wall and being pushed down again. When he came out, his heart was pierced like a knife.

"Can we still break through this city?"

He asked in a low voice.

"I'm afraid there is no chance!"

Ji Yu's previous lofty ambitions are gone, and all that remains is depression. This Nanxiang City has defeated all his arrogance. He thought that as long as he attacked with all his strength, he would be able to break through the city, but the [-] yuan he brought The elite reinforcements have already lost [-] troops, but they still cannot break through the city.

"Chen Lan!" Lei Bo looked at the lieutenant Chen Lan.

Chen Lan shook her head, sighed, then cupped her hands and said, "Lord Captain, we might have a chance in another ten days, but now, I don't have the confidence to break through. Even if we break through this city, they will die with me. Everything in the city , will cease to exist, then..."

It has been more than two days since the news that the grain road was cut off came back.

But Lei Bo was not reconciled.

While cultivating faith in Wancheng, he hoped that Wancheng would send troops to retake the grain road, and on the other hand, he would storm Nanxiang, hoping to break through Nanxiang City before the grain ran out.

But the strength of Nanxiang was beyond his expectation.

"It's so mobilizing so many people, I'm not reconciled!" Lei Bo yelled angrily.

"My lord, it's about the life and death of the soldiers, so don't be arrogant!" Chen Lan cupped her hands to advise.

"you're right!"

After all, Lei Bo is a general of one party, and at this moment he is still reasonable, and he gave the order with deep reluctance: "Send the order, Ming Jin withdraws the troops, retreats [-] miles to the east, and slowly withdraws from the battlefield!"

"promise!"

The generals took orders, and they were not reconciled, but until now, they had no choice but to retreat.

"Chen Lan, after you lead the army, be careful to counterattack in the city!"

"promise!"

Chen Lan took the order.

"Nanxiangcheng, when I take back the grain road, I will crush you!" Lei Bo acted vigorously, and since he had made up his mind, he immediately executed it. Naturally, he took the lead in withdrawing himself. He took a hard look at Nanxiangcheng.

"Clang clang clang!"

"withdraw troops!"

"The captain has an order to withdraw troops immediately!"

The sound of each gong echoed on the battlefield. Under the sound of gold, the soldiers quickly began to change their formation, shrinking back from the offensive formation, turning into a defensive formation, and then slowly withdrawing from the battlefield.

"They retreated?"

"what happened?"

"Is there some conspiracy?"

"Still be careful, don't relax!"

"Immediately send all the scouts out of the city to investigate and see what plots and tricks the Nanyang Bandit Army is playing!"

"..."

The battle was fierce, and the Nanyang Army suddenly withdrew its troops, like a rising tide, and quickly disappeared after the tide ebbed, which made the soldiers of the Violent Bear Army on the top of the city a little puzzled.

"Chen Nan!"

Zhou Cang's horizontal sword immediately stood on the top of the city, squinting his eyes, staring at the soldiers of the Nanyang Army who were retreating outside the city, and gave a low drink.

"exist!"

A general came up.

"Immediately ask the most elite scouts to inquire. Also, continue to guard the city, don't relax!"

"promise!"

The general in uniform led the way.

"General Zhou, why did the enemy retreat?" Cai Yan walked down from the tower, walked to the crenel at the top of the city, looked outside the city, and asked a little puzzled.

"Report Madam, it is still unclear!"

After Zhou Cang bowed his hands and saluted, he replied: "However, it is a good thing for us that they retreat at this moment. As long as we catch our breath, the lord's reinforcements should arrive in Nanyang soon, and we will be safe!"

"hope so!"

Cai Yan has been wearing this battle armor for several days. Although she chose a softer armor, for a weak woman like her, she felt that she could not hold on several times, but she looked around. All the soldiers looked at her with those uplifting eyes, and she suddenly felt infinite strength in her body.

These days, she stood on the top of the city and witnessed this tragic battle like a meat grinder with her own eyes. The soldiers fell forever, which was the eternal pain in her heart. She hoped that this war could be fought sooner. Finish.

"Many soldiers were injured again today. I will visit the wounded soldiers first. I will leave the defense to General Zhou!"

Cai Yan said with a smile.

"Madam, don't worry, the general will be extremely vigilant and will not give the enemy any chance!" Zhou Cang nodded.

…………

……

After the Nanyang army withdrew, they withdrew all the way to the east. One day later, the whole army withdrew to Shunyang City.

In Shunyang City, the Nanyang Army took a rest.

Lei Bo is a general under Yuan Shu's command. He is alone. The safety of Zhennanyang naturally has a certain ability. Now, it still holds the advantage.

So when he was resting in Shunyang, he didn't think about withdrawing his troops immediately.

Because he is not reconciled.

As long as he regained the grain road, there was still hope for him to attack Nanxiang. Nanxiang had been driven into a desperate situation by him. Given ten days and a half months, he would definitely be able to take Nanxiang down.

"Chen Lan!"

"exist!"

"I order you to lead the army to attack the champion and take it back!"

"Captain, I'm afraid it's not easy!" Chen Lan smiled wryly: "Even if Champion County is not as strong as Nanxiang County, it is still a big city. It will take time for our large Miyagi equipment to be transported to Champion Castle. If we only use ladders to attack, we will have to pay Huge casualties, the most important thing is time, general, we don't have enough food for five days!"

"Five days' food?"

When Lei Bo heard this, his pupils grew bigger and his fists clenched suddenly.

If the food and grass for five days includes the time for marching, that is, they only have three days at most to attack. How can they break through the champion county, unless Nanyang Wancheng sends troops to respond, but the elite of Wancheng are here. If you want to send troops, you must There is not enough time to recruit young and strong.

"Then what shall we do?"

Ji Yu became flustered. He led his troops to reinforce him because he wanted to gain merit, but he didn't want to die here.

Chen Lan squinted at Ji Yu, with a look of disdain in his eyes, how heroic Ji Ling is, to have such a cousin who is greedy for life and afraid of death, he thought for a while, cupped his hands and said: "Captain, let's retreat , go back to Wancheng to rest first, and then make a comeback after the rest, and we will be able to recover the western part of Nanyang in the future!"

"Do we have to retreat?" Lei Bo was unwilling in the end. Nanyang's soldiers were exhausted in this battle, but there was no gain at all. They fled back in despair, and it was reported to Yuan Shu's ears that he was incompetent and must bear the responsibility. , It is even possible that the captaincy's position and power will not be guaranteed.

"Lord Captain, the life and death of tens of thousands of sons and daughters cannot be gambled!"

Chen Lan continued to advise.

"Then retreat!"

Lei Bo gritted his teeth and gave the order word by word.

He was unwilling and did not dare to gamble with the main force under his command. You must know that without soldiers, there is no power. He is very clear where his power comes from. He asked in a deep voice: "Now let's talk about it, the army How do we get out now?"
