Father can be an enemy country

Chapter 947 A guest from afar please stay

The fighting in the next few days turned out to be a complete stalemate, just as Yaizhu had expected.

For the defenders, things are familiar again and again. With previous combat experience, they will not be so panicked when they defend the city again. Once they no longer panic, the losses will not be so great. The more they defend, the more confident they will become, and the more they will defend, the better they will be, and they will not even give the enemy a chance to attack the city.

The siege army suffered losses every day. Although it was not as heavy as the next day, it still cost thousands of people a day.

Morale became irreversibly sluggish, and the three soldiers, who had suffered heavy losses, began to show off openly.

Starting from the sixth day, Pu'an and Luoshanbu's daily losses plummeted to double digits. Even the Puding Department's losses were just over a hundred... I was so angry that my nose was crooked. Isn't this a blatant act of fishing? !

But he didn't dare to let the supervising team push too hard. The rabbit was biting when it was anxious, which made the three chieftains anxious. They led the team away, and he really couldn't stop them.

Withdrawal was inevitably put on the agenda.

"The situation cannot be tolerated, withdraw, Marshal." Toxiong and Mino couldn't help but bring this up. "While our troops are still there, let's retreat to Pu'an Village. We were defending the city and they attacked."

"..." Now even Niu Qi didn't object. The Puding tribe has naturally suffered the most losses. Half of its men have been lost since the war started. If the war continues, the entire tribe will be completely destroyed.

"Yes." The deputy commander who bit Zhu also nodded slowly: "With this fight, we have an explanation to Ping Zhang."

"No!" Xitianbu, Yaizhu's son, was anxious: "My mother... no, it's Puding Fort that hasn't been recaptured yet. How can we withdraw our troops?!"

Niu Qi's old face turned red when he heard this, but Dangxiong and Mino felt disgusted in their hearts, thinking that you want to save your mother, but we don't have a mother to save.

"Young Master, please forgive me for being powerless." Mino sighed and said, "It is easier to defend the city than to attack it. Once this Puding Fort is lost, it will be even more difficult to take it back."

"Yes, our Pu'an Department has been reduced by 30%, and we have no ability to fight anymore!" Dangxiong also said loudly: "Whoever wants to attack the city can attack it. Anyway, I will not let my clansmen die!"

"Then you go to hell!" Xitianbu pulled out his knife and pointed at Dangxiong fiercely.

The chieftain was not allowed to bring weapons when he entered the military tent. When Dangxiong was bare-handed, he was so frightened that he backed away and shouted: "Marshal, take care of your son!"

"Stop!" Yaizhu scolded his son and said expressionlessly: "Put away the knife. The enemy should not kill each other now."

"Hmph!" Xi Tianbu angrily sheathed his sword.

"I'll ask you guys again," Yaizhu looked at the three chieftain leaders again: "Do you really not want to fight again?"

"Really." Toxiong and Mino nodded without hesitation. Ushiki hesitated and nodded slightly.

"Well, I follow your orders to withdraw our troops." Yaozhu said calmly: "When we are guarding Pu'an Village, we can no longer retreat."

"Of course, Marshal, don't worry!" Toxiong and Mino nodded quickly as if they were granted amnesty.

With the order to withdraw the troops, the Yuan army camp, which had been gloomy and gloomy for the past few days, finally came to life.

Both the regular army and the native soldiers breathed a sigh of relief and were glad to have finally survived. Not wanting to delay for a moment, they immediately packed up and prepared to evacuate this hellish place.

The news of the Yuan army breaking out of camp soon alarmed Puding Fort. When His Royal Highness the King of Chu and the two women Ju Mu arrived after hearing the news, the city had become a sea of ​​joy.

The native soldiers jumped and danced, celebrating the victory. This kind of victory may not be surprising to the soldiers of the Ming army, but to them it is a great victory that they have never seen in their lives! The soldiers, who had forgotten what they were doing, actually threw Mu Ying into the sky, caught her, and then continued to throw her forward.

Zhu Zhen saw poor Xiping Hou being thrown up and caught around the city wall like a ball...

Muying enjoyed the feeling of being loved, but she was also worried that they would accidentally throw her under the city. I can only keep reminding: "Be careful, don't throw me down!"

"Having a general like Xipinghou is really a blessing for the Ming Dynasty." Shexiang said sincerely beside Lao Liu.

"Having a prince like King Chu is even more of a blessing to the Ming Dynasty." Mrs. Liu praised on the other side of Lao Liu.

"Hahaha," His Royal Highness the King of Chu was in a good mood. He wanted to hug him from left to right, and laughed, "It is the blessing of the Ming Dynasty to have two women Ju Mu!"

The two girls smiled sheepishly, and Shexiang said modestly, "We didn't do anything."

"No, without the support of the two of you, we would never be able to defend Puding Fort!" Zhu Zhen shook his head and said sternly: "If these 50,000 enemy troops were allowed to enter Puding Fort, this battle would still be over. How to fight? How many men do we have to sacrifice to conquer this place?"

"His Highness always praises us so highly," Mrs. Liu said with a sweet smile, "I'm not afraid that we won't be able to find the answer."

"Haha, you have to praise me hard." Zhu Zhen responded with a big smile, and saw Mu Ying finally being put down on the ground by the soldiers, and she hurriedly walked towards him.

"Your Highness." Mu Ying straightened her clothes and armor while saluting.

He always acted cautiously, and even if he knew Lao Liu personally, he would always be very polite when there were outsiders.

Zhu Zhen supported him and asked in a low voice: "They are about to withdraw their troops. Is there any way to keep them?"

"It's difficult." Mu Ying shook her head, her expression a little solemn. Unlike the happy chieftains and soldiers, defending the city was only half the battle for them. If they could keep all these enemy troops in Puding, they would be considered accomplished.

"The general of the Yuan army on the opposite side is not low-level. He also left 10,000 Yuan troops on the east side of the canyon. He did not move during the most intense siege." He pointed to the east side and said:

"The 10,000-yuan army should be on guard against our reinforcements. But now if we dare to go out of the city to pursue them, they can beat us from behind."

"When will Yingchuan Hou's reinforcements arrive?" Zhu Zhen asked in a deep voice.

"In total, it will take a few days to arrive." Mu Ying thought: "The Yuan army came too suddenly, and there is no way to force them."

"Yes." Zhu Zhen nodded, but in their original idea, there were only three chieftains who attacked the city at the beginning. When the Yuan army received the news and set off from Jingjiang, it would take twenty days at the fastest to arrive.

The vanguard of the Ming army can definitely arrive in advance, set up an ambush in the canyon, and eat this Yuan army. Who would have thought that the Yuan army and the three chieftains came together, and it would be difficult to keep them here now.

"The Marquis of Yingchuan hasn't come yet, we can't let them leave like this." Zhu Zhen thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "We have to find a way to keep them here!"

"Your Highness is right, but the general is so stupid that he can't think of any solution at the moment." Mu Ying said worriedly.

"I have a way." Zhu Zhen smiled.
