Chapter 1052: A Soldier Who Surrenders Without a Fight
Just when Kuang Zhang led the crowd to urgently retreat to the junction of the Wei and Song dynasties.
On the other side, Tian Jia had already led more than 50,000 Qi troops to run for a while.
"Report to the general, the Chu people did not pursue us, but stopped the army of the broken back."
"Good, strong General Su, when the general returns to Qi safely, he will definitely ask the King of Song for General Su. Summon, go on, go to Chendi. โ
"Report to the general, the Chu people have surrounded the broken army."
"Report to the general, Chu drove Tang Yu to the battlefield."
An hour later, Tian Jia led the crowd to flee for nearly twenty miles, at this time, Tian Jia looked at the rear, and saw that there was no trace of the Chu people behind him, so he breathed a sigh of relief, although he sold 30,000 Song troops and more than 10,000 Qi army soldiers, but most of the Qi army soldiers let him take them out.
After this battle, the 200,000 troops of Gongsun Xi and Su He were all wiped out, and the 100,000 troops in his hands were nearly half.
Thinking about it, Tian Jia sighed and said lonely: "Order, the army continues to move forward and goes straight to Chendi, as long as we reach Chendi, we will be safe." โ
After walking for a while, just as the escape speed of the Qi army slowed down, suddenly, a scout quickly came from the rear: "Report, general, it's not good, the spies who are monitoring the Chu people have come to report, and the Song general Su Xin led the division of the broken rear to surrender to the Chu people." Not only did the Song people descend, but the Qi people also surrendered after the break, and at this time, the Chu general Tang Yuzheng led an army of more than 100,000 to chase us. โ
When Tian Jia heard this, his face changed drastically, and he said angrily: "Damn, no guts rats, they surrendered without a fight, and when they return to China, they will definitely ask the King of Song to join him, and if they don't kill Su Xin's husband, it will be difficult to eliminate the hatred in the hearts of the generals." โ
After scolding Su Xin for a while, Tian Jia shouted again and again: "Order, speed up, and move towards Chen Di quickly." Also, immediately send someone to Chendi to inform the Wei people stationed in Chendi to prepare to meet us and others, and let the Wei people in Chendi provide us with supplies. โ
Two days later, when Tian Jia took 50,000 and the Qi army all the way to wade through the mud and water, and rushed to the ferry on the south bank of Yingshui with great difficulty, Tian Jia, who was standing at the water's edge, found that not only was the ferry empty, but even the surface of Yingshui was empty, and there was no half of a figure.
Seeing this, Tian Jia had a bad premonition in his heart, and then said with an extremely ugly face: "What about the Wei people?" Why didn't the Wei people come to respond, could it be that the Wei people got the news of the Huaibei fiasco, and in horror, they had abandoned the city and fled?
But it's not right, there are still more than 100,000 Wei troops on the side of Fangcheng, if Chen Cheng is lost, the Wei army in Fangcheng will be cut off from the grain route and the back road. โ
The people around looked at each other, but no one could answer Tian Jia's question.
At this time, a scout came to Tian Jia's side: "Report, general, we found more than 100 ferries by the river, but we didn't find the Wei people stationed here, nor did we find the local Chu people, it seems that everyone has fled." โ
When Tian Jia heard that there were more than 100 boats at the ferry, his anxious heart couldn't help but relax slightly, and then immediately ordered: "Order, immediately organize the soldiers to prepare to cross the river, and let the soldiers dismantle the ferry and make a raft to speed up the pace of crossing the river." โ
"No."
At this moment, a scout hurriedly ran not far behind Tian Jia: "Report to the general, it's not good, the Chu general Tang Yu has already led the Chu army to ten miles away from the ferry." โ
"What?" Tian Jia was shocked, and then, he suddenly remembered the humiliating experience of being captured by the Chu people more than ten years ago.
"Is Ben going to be humiliated again?"
Thinking about it, Tian Jia shuddered, then shook his head suddenly, and ordered: "Go, cross the river immediately." โ
After saying that, Tian Jia asked a Qi general to stay at the ferry to organize the soldiers to continue crossing the river, and let one who was responsible for blocking the Chu army, then took more than 30 personal guards and a few close generals who did not bring personal guards, strode onto the largest ship, and then went straight to the north bank.
As soon as the rest of the Qi generals saw what Tian Jia had done, they immediately followed suit, led their guards to seize the ships, and then headed north.
A moment later, the high-ranking generals of the Qi army crossed the river one after another, leaving only the two generals named by Tian Jia trembling on the shore, not knowing whether it was fear or anger.
Just when the rest of the Qi people hurriedly began to forcibly dismantle the ferry to make a raft, Tian Jia took a boat all the way north, and soon reached the center of the river.
At this time, one of Tian Jia's personal guards shouted in horror: "General, it's not good, the ship is leaking." โ
Tian Jia walked into the cabin in horror, and saw that the cabin was already full of water.
"Quick, immediately clean up the river, dismantle the cabin, and prepare the cultivation boat."
As soon as Tian Jia's words fell, at this time, a frightened voice came from the deck: "General, it's not good, a large number of Chu State sailors have emerged from the chasm and are coming towards us." โ
When Tian Jia heard this, he hurriedly got out of the cabin, stood on tiptoe on the deck and looked north, and saw that a large number of sailors appeared in the chasm, and the head of the ship was still hung with the flag of Shen Yifu, the commander of the Chu State Sailors. โ
At this time, on the flagship of the Chu State Naval Division, Shen Yifu stood at the bow of the boat, and saw from a distance that he was on the largest boat he left at the ferry, hanging the flag of General Tian Jia brightly, and laughed: "As expected by Zhu Guo, Tian Jia, who had been captured once back then, really didn't want to be captured by our army again, and he should have made this great achievement." Order, beat drums, meet up, and greet General Tian Jia. โ
When the boat approached Tian Jia's boat, Shen Yifu saw that on Tian Jia's boat, the river was about to rise to the deck.
Seeing this, Shen Yifu smiled and shouted, "General Tian Jia, please get on the boat for a while." โ
Hearing this, Tian Jia looked at Shen Yifu at the bow of the boat, and looked at the surging water under his feet, in the choice between humiliation and death, he hesitated for a long time, until the river overflowed to the deck and wet his instep, he nodded at Shen Yifu in horror and humiliation.
At this time, the Qi people stranded in the ferry saw that a large number of Chu army sailors suddenly killed on the Yingshui River, and in the panic of everyone, they saw their main general Tian Jia boarding the Chu people's warship...
Soon, when Tang Wu led the army to the ferry, more than 50,000 Qi troops immediately surrendered.
After collecting and surrendering the Qi army and settling down Tian Jia, Tang Yu asked Shen Yifu on the side: "General Shen, the general wants to take Chencheng and cut off the back road of the Wei army attacking Fangcheng, the general arrived two days early, I don't know what the situation of the Wei army in Chencheng is?" โ
Shen Yifu said with a smile: "Zhuguo doesn't have to worry about Chen Cheng, Chen Cheng has already been conquered. โ
Tang Yu was stunned, immediately looked at Shen Yifu, and said in surprise: "Chencheng is an important town, the pool is deep and the wall is high, not only related to the return route of the Wei army in Fangcheng and Huaibei, but also the material gathering place of the Wei army. โ
Shen Yifu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Returning to the Zhuguo dialect is not the work of the people, but the work of the people in the city." โ
Seeing Tang Mo hesitantly looking over, Shen Yifu explained: "Two years ago, the Five Nations Alliance Army conquered Chencheng, and the Qi army took the lead in wreaking havoc in Chencheng for three days, hundreds of people's finances were robbed, and hundreds of people's wives and daughters were ravaged, so the people of Chencheng hated the Five Kingdoms to the core.
Therefore, as soon as the news of the fiasco of the Wei and Song coalition forces reached Chencheng, and then the sailors led by Xia appeared near Chencheng, and then the people in the city spontaneously staged a riot, and the Wei people were frightened, abandoned all the food and ordnance, and then fled north in embarrassment. โ
