Chapter 383
When Gao Yihuan saw that the suspension bridge was burned, he immediately ordered Ming Jin to withdraw his troops, and the [-] soldiers who attacked Yiling immediately retreated.

After a period of training, the soldiers of the Wei army had already gained some experience in siege, but if they wanted to take Yiling Prefecture without being able to enter the city through the city gate, the casualties would be huge.

In war, apart from being killed in the field, the biggest casualty is the active attack.

When the Qing army went south to the south of the Yangtze River, the two heroes Yan Yingyuan and Chen Mingren, relying on some rural courage and remnants of the Ming Dynasty, guarded the small city of Jiangyin for [-] days and blocked the attack of more than [-] Qing troops.

Although Gao Yihuan had powerful weapons and elite soldiers, Sun Kewang had more than [-] men after all, and it would not be so easy for Gao Yihuan to capture them in one day.

At this time, the soldiers of the Western Army on the city wall watched Wei Jun retreat, and immediately let out a cheer.

Sun Kewang looked at the messy city and saw the corpses all over the city wall, but he was a little startled.

The first time he attacked, he was almost beaten in. Although Wei Jun retreated, he couldn't be happy, and he couldn't say a word.

At this time, he looked at the retreating soldiers of the Wei army, and then at the main force of the Wei army that had not moved in the distance. After a long while, he sighed, "It's God's will!"

It was night, in the big camp of the Wei army, in the big tent of the Chinese army, and many generals of the Wei Wu army in the tent were discussing the battle during the day.

"Damn it, if the suspension bridge wasn't full of fire, I would have broken down the city gate today!" Zhao Zhuzi looked angry, obviously not reconciled to today's battle.

One arm was tied with a bandage and hung around his neck, the eyebrows on his face were burned off, and there were many burns on his body, and he almost confessed to being in the sea of ​​fire.

However, Gao Yihuan waved his hand to make everyone quiet, "Today, many soldiers attacked the top of the city, and the city gate was almost taken down, which shows that our training is indeed effective! I, the generals of Wei Wujun, are indeed a powerful army in the world."

Gao Yihuan said a word of consolation first, then changed the subject, "But if you didn't take it, you didn't take it. Don't make excuses. We Wei Wujun can still bear this little setback. It's not a big deal. As long as we summarize the reasons today, Just attack next time!"

Zhao Daxian clasped his fists and said, "Commander, from the point of view of the general, today's siege is mainly due to the fact that the soldiers can't continue to climb the city. Even if 100 people go up the city by climbing the ladder, it will be difficult to stand firm. After all, there are too many soldiers and horses in the city. The speed at which they go to the city to replenish is much faster than ours."

Yiling is a small county, but there are [-] Western troops in it, and Sun Kewang's army strength is indeed a bit large.

The speed of the Ming army climbing up the city from the ladder was not as fast as that of the Western army climbing the city for support. Even if they occupied a section of the city wall for a while, it would be difficult to expand the results of the battle, and it would easily lead to a tragic tug-of-war.

Gao Yihuan nodded slightly. If he wanted to break through the city, he must have a channel to quickly send troops into the city, otherwise he would not be able to offset the superiority of the Western Army in the city.

If troops cannot be quickly transported into the city, if a thousand Wei troops enter, they will be attacked by five thousand, or even nearly ten thousand Western troops, and it will be difficult to defeat the Western troops in the city.

Only by opening a channel and sending thousands of people into the city in a short period of time can the will of the Western Army be destroyed.

Usually the way to quickly enter the city is to seize the city gate, but Sun Kewang will definitely strengthen the defense of this area.

Gao Yihuan pondered and said, "It seems that only by digging a tunnel and blowing up a gap, so that soldiers can enter the city continuously, can we take Yiling Prefecture with relatively small casualties."

Gao Yihuan didn't want to waste time, so he directly denied this plan from the very beginning.

At this time he was talking, but Dai Jinghong came in suddenly, walked quickly to the middle, panting and urgently said: "Commander, Sun Kewang has run away!"

"What?" Gao Yihuan jumped up, "Damn it, this guy was so arrogant yesterday, he didn't accept my kindness, and even scolded me for having a hole in his head, as if he wanted to live and die with Yiling. Why did it take only one day? , Guisun ran away?"

"Marshal, the brothers who were monitoring noticed the movement and came to report immediately. Sun Kewang just slipped away in the dark!" Dai Jinghong clasped his fists.

Immediately, there was a lot of discussion in the big tent, but Gao Yihuan slapped the handsome case, "If you can't pretend, just think about it. It's not that easy. Send the army to chase me!"

Gao Yihuan gave an order, and the Wei army camp that had just been silent suddenly became noisy again. The entire camp was lit with torches, and long dragons poured out of the camp.

Sun Kewang wanted to defend Yiling and leave a stronghold for Daxi Kingdom in Huguang.

In this way, Daxi Kingdom still had the possibility to seize Huguang from the east, so he refused to voluntarily withdraw from Yiling, and scoffed at Gao Yihuan's suggestion and spoke harshly.

Although Gao Yihuan's troops are very capable of fighting, but Sun Kewang has a lot of soldiers and food, and he thinks highly of himself, so he is not afraid of him.

Sun Kewang originally thought that he was very sure that Gao Yihuan would return without success. After all, the [-] Ming army fought against Yiling for a month, but they still failed to defeat it.It's just that as soon as they played against each other today, Sun Kewang realized that he couldn't hold on anymore.

Although Gao Yihuan only brought 3 people, the elite level of the troops was not comparable to that of the Ming army.

Before he thought he could hold on, but now he knew he would not be able to hold on, and after Zhang Xianzhong's expedition to Hanzhong failed, he couldn't care about Yiling for a while, so Sun Kewang decided to slip away.

After all, although his ambition is very lofty, the prerequisite for realizing his ambition is to be alive.

Although it seems a bit embarrassing to leave now after uttering harsh words, but compared with life, what is losing face?
In the dark night, Sun Kewang and Feng Shuangli stood on the top of the mountain, watching the group of people below, taking advantage of the moonlight, to pass quickly.

Feng Shuangli looked at the soldiers of the Western Army who were retreating hastily, and glanced in the direction of Yiling, feeling a little sad.

"Feng Dudu, let's go! Keep the green hills here, and don't worry about running out of firewood! This king will come back sooner or later!" Sun Kewang pulled the rein and said to Feng Shuangli.

Feng Shuangli had some complaints about Sun Kewang, saying that you are the one who must never lose in Yiling, and you are the one who is going to leave now, and you still have the green hills, and you will make excuses, anyway, you are right no matter what.

"Your Majesty, since you want to withdraw, why didn't you agree to Gao Yihuan's conditions in advance?" Feng Shuangli couldn't hold back, and complained.

Gao Yihuan initially promised to let them withdraw, and also promised to return their family members. Sun Kewang insisted on holding on, but after this fight, he immediately changed his mind and wanted to withdraw.

After all this tossing around, I still have to give up Yiling, so why bother before that?

Sun Kewang was riding a horse, his face was a little ugly when he heard the words, and the muscles on his face twitched, but under the cover of night, it was difficult for others to see his expression.

Sun Kewang heard Feng Shuangli's complaint, which made him a little annoyed. Instead of comforting him, he argued in a sullen voice, "Gao Yihuan is insidious and cunning. Do you think what he said can be taken seriously? In fact, this king has been planning to evacuate for a long time, but he is just afraid of Gao Yihuan. Ambushing and chasing, so righteously rejected Gao Yihuan's conditions, making that guy think that the king will stick to it, but he doesn't think that the king is actually going to evacuate! Do you think we are evacuating safely now?"

Feng Shuangli was taken aback for a moment, let alone what Sun Kewang said was very reasonable.

"Your Majesty, Gao Yihuan is here!" At this moment, a cavalryman galloped over and reported urgently.

Sun Kewang heard the words and looked to the east, saw all the fire dragons chasing him, his expression changed, he immediately pulled the rein of the horse, and shouted anxiously: "Quick, follow the king!"
