Chapter 239: The Five-Step Alliance of the Spear Piercing (9)
The king of Chu could not retreat, could not escape, and could not die in battle.
Because he knew that he had just succeeded to the throne, and he also knew that he still had to exert a strong ambition to dominate the industry, so he didn't know what to do.
It's not too much to kill a monarch on the battlefield.
But on the battlefield, there were not many cases of forcing monarchs to form alliances.
Retreat or flee, the Chu army will be chaotic.
And if you are forced to form an alliance on the battlefield, this must be observed, and it is impossible to lose your integrity in front of the ten thousand armies, and even lose your respect for the Emperor of Heaven: the alliance must at least have the Emperor as a witness.
The king of Chu stood in the camp and sighed, listening to the shouts and killings that were approaching in the distance, as well as the explosions that came from time to time, and knew that there was no second way to go today.
Those explosions had already panicked the Chu army, and many people rushed to flee, covering their ears with their hands.
But people only have two hands, and when both hands are used to cover their ears, they must not be holding a weapon, which is a truth that children understand.
Now outside the camp, there are such Chu people everywhere, just thinking about escaping from the center where the explosion sounded.
King Chu knew that this was not some ghost or god, I was afraid that it was the weapon of the Mo family.
The ink is good at guarding and being mechanical, so it's not surprising that he can make even strange things. Originally, there was a Mo Zhai, but now the king of Chu knows that there is another person who claims to be familiar with Tianzhi and learned from hermits, and many of those strange things are related to this person.
After a long sigh, the king of Chu was moved again.
"If these Mo family's machinery and weapons can be used by me, even if they are only used to defend the city, can the Jin people capture Daliang Yuguan?"
"Mo Zhai has formed an alliance with me, even if he is forced to form an alliance with Shangqiu today, what can he do?"
"When Hua Yuan visited Zi at night, he retreated thirty miles, and Song and Chu made peace. I don't think they would ask for anything more......"
On second thought, it was inappropriate.
Song and Chu formed an alliance, which was quite unfavorable to the Chu people, Chu Fei at this time was Chu at the time of King Zhuang, and Song at this time was not the Song who could promote the military meeting twice.
The Chu army was not the Chu army that had just defeated the Jin people in the Battle of Liangtang, and it was only after defeating the Jin people that it formed an alliance with the Song people at that time, and perfectly demonstrated the logistics ability of a long-term siege, so even if the alliance was formed, it would not affect the hegemony of the Chu State.
The current Chu army is the Chu army that was defeated by the Three Jin Dynasty in one fell swoop by the north twenty years ago; And the current Three Jin Dynasty is the Three Jin Dynasty that just destroyed Zhongshan, captured the West River, shocked Jiang Qi, and sealed the Marquis of Heaven.
In this case, once the Song people are forced to form an alliance, those small countries in the world who hesitate to wait and see will be turned to the side of the Three Jin Dynasty in an instant.
The king of Chu understood that if he formed an alliance with the Song people this time, even the Zheng people, who had in-laws with him and had blood feuds with Han Zong, would defect.
What he thought was that after the three-year covenant, he would abide by the covenant of the soldiers, rely on the ink to guard the Daliang Yuguan, and wedge into the Three Jins.
But now that I think about it, I'm afraid that when the three-year appointment comes, Daliang Yuguan will no longer belong to the Chu people, so what's the use?
Could it be that these Mo families entered Chu and helped defend the national capital Yingcheng?
Thinking of this, the king of Chu sighed, and said in his heart that he was afraid that the ink man did not think that he was the king of the world from the beginning.
All I thought about was a three-year covenant based on the premise that the siege would be won.
And the people of the Mo family, I am afraid that from the beginning, what they thought of was a three-year covenant based on the premise that the siege would be defeated.
If that's the case, the Chu people will withdraw from the Central Plains, Huaisi will not be guaranteed, Chen Cai will revisit the front of the army, I am afraid that he can only defend, and everyone in the Mo family will naturally be unhindered!
The King of Chu gritted his teeth, he didn't hate in his heart, he was just shocked by the Mo family's methods.
Since the siege of the city, he thinks that he has mastered the overall situation, and believes that there will be a disaster of Xiao Wall in Shangqiu City, and believes that Shangqiu City can last for a few months at most......
But now that I think clearly, it is the hundreds of disciples of Mo Zhai who are defending in the city, and the people of the Mo family who are unparalleled in the world in defending the city, are they really not aware at all?
Besides, even so, it can still cause a situation tonight, if there is no chaos in Shangqiu City, what should it do?
Thinking about this, the king of Chu was clear in his mind, and in the chaotic screams, he thought of the opportunity to turn defeat into victory in the end.
Shangqiu City has been in chaos, and it is impossible for the Song people to go out of the city to counterattack.
If Shangqiu did not have the scourge of Xiao Wall, with these shocking weapons like lightning, as long as they created chaos with elite troops in the early hours of the morning, and the whole army in the city attacked, would the Chu people have any other possibility than to retreat?
But now, it is obvious that the city cannot send troops, so the Mo family has chosen such a difficult road to penetrate the formation and attack the five-step alliance!
"Hold on until dawn! Hold on until dawn! Although the disciples of the Mo family are elite, as long as I can hold out until dawn, they will retreat. Even if he does not retreat, Shangqiu City cannot send troops to counterattack, and he can also outflank the entire army on both wings. ”
"Even if they are elite and brave, and they have wonderful weapons, it is impossible for them to resist tens of thousands of troops with hundreds of people!"
This is the consideration of survival in death, and it is also the only feasible consideration at this time, the king of Chu no longer thinks about the idea of escaping or escaping into another camp, but draws his sword and says to the attendants beside him: "Gather the soldiers and fight to the death with me!" ”
"Pass the order and hold on until dawn, and the ink will be defeated."
"If you can hold on until dawn:"
"Slaves, servants, and sons-in-law are commoners!"
"The common people, agriculture, industry and commerce, all have rewards. If you can kill the enemy, you can wear a sword with the corporal! ”
"If you stick to it, you will be in front! If you can kill the enemy, you will make up the number of palace guards! ”
"The clan, the doctor's concubine, those who can kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, will be crowned ten miles!"
"Anyone who dies in a battle with this place will be exempted from taxes by their families, and there will be rewards, and it is not easy to do so!"
"I swear an oath with the Emperor of Heaven and will not violate it!"
In a hurry, the king of Chu could only take out military merits as a reward, just like Zhao Jianzi, who opened a precedent for military merits, and strive for everyone to fight.
As for how these rewards are to be fulfilled? As for which nobleman's fief these fiefs were now cut, that was a matter for later.
Nowadays, apart from such a method, it is no longer possible to gather people's hearts.
The king of Chu thought of the previous propaganda of the Mo family, and the desire of everyone to take profit, which led to the fluctuation of the previous military spirit and the dissatisfaction of the soldiers and peasants.
And now, he can also use this heart of everyone's benefit to make the soldiers use their lives.
Fortunately, there are still close attendants, nobles, and many loyal people who are determined to die.
As long as you can gather thousands of people and stick to the brick and stone fortress left by the Mo family when they built the Enemy Shrine, and hold out until dawn, the situation can be reversed.
Now he is embarrassed, but I think that the disciples of the Mo family on the opposite side are also fighting to the death, once they fail...... Not only will Shangqiu City be lost, but even the Mo family will owe themselves a huge favor.
Thinking of the story that had been circulated before, spread in the same way as the story of the blue and blue, and renamed Qin Weng lost his horse and knew whether he was blessed, the king of Chu deeply realized the emotions contained in these eight words for the first time.
"Qin Weng lost his horse, how do you know the blessings and misfortunes? Tonight's victory or defeat is yet to be known! ”
Secretly encouraging himself, the close guards around him also loudly announced the order of the king of Chu, gathered those fleeing or nearby Chu troops, and prepared to defend to the death.
The King of Chu raised his head, looked at the stars in the sky, and knew that although there was still some time before Tianming, it was also fast.
Looking at the tall wooden tower of the altar that the Mo family provided strange grease in order to worship the Emperor of Heaven and the Chu people, and burned all day long, he could see clearly from a long distance, and the King of Chu felt a little relieved.
"Fortunately, the flame of this wooden tower can be seen for miles at night! Now, if I am surrounded, the generals will surely fight to save me, and they will know where I am by this thing...... Or maybe before dawn, the disciples of the Mo family will retreat, right? ”
He tilted his head and looked at the tall wooden tower, thinking to himself, I am afraid that the Mo family did not expect that he might eventually lose on this wooden tower in order to meet the enemy shrine and worship the Emperor of Heaven!
