The continuous autumn rain has been going south, and when the southern foot of the Qinling Mountains gradually clears, Fangcheng and the old Yingcheng have become dripping. As soon as it rains, there are no stars in the sky, and a little drizzle falls on the blue-black sky, hitting the raincoat and penetrating the armor, and the chill is deep.

Xiong Jing is no stranger to rain, and when Fuying was waiting for an attack on the Yangtze River in Xiayi and Shaxian that year, it was also raining constantly, but the disobedience under his crotch disgusted with this humid weather, and he kept snorting, breathing in a restless mood, expressing his dissatisfaction with the autumn rain. Xiong Jing soothed it, and regardless of whether the horse could understand it or not, he muttered in its ear: "The sky will dawn, the sky will soon dawn......"

"Great King...... A voice sounded in the darkness, it was Nao Xin.

"What?" Xiong Jing heard Nao Xin's voice and felt that he had brought bad news again. Yes, it must be bad news.

"The Qin people's boat division has moved eastward, and the frustration has been abandoned." Sure enough, it was bad news, and Xiong Jing smiled bitterly in the dark.

"Where's the donkey?" Xiong Jing asked about the battle of Daze, and in the past few days, he is in charge of the battle on the Western Front.

"Su Ao has abandoned the boat and led the Yue division to retreat to Tho land." Nao channel. "It was said that the Qin people's boat division had a formation, and they couldn't win the battle, so they had to abandon the boat and retreat."

"Formation?! What kind of formation? Xiong Jing was more and more surprised. Originally, it was the Yue Shi Zhou Division who pressed the Qin people to fight, but after a few days, the Qin Zhou Division had a formation, and the Yue Shi was invincible and had to evacuate the water. He couldn't imagine what kind of formation forced the Yue people to abandon the boat and land.

"Unspoken." Nao Xin knew that Xiong Jing would ask what kind of formation it was, but the interrogation did not elaborate. He said that when the Qin people went east, they had sent people to Fuyi and Nanzheng to report the news. Although he is so frustrated, Nan Zheng should not be lost. ”

The importance of Nanzheng is not as good as that of Fuyi, and the importance of Fuyi is not as good as that of Tho. Tho controlled the water and land routes into Shu, and once the Qin army was lost, it would attack Bashu. At present, it seems that the Qin army cannot be stopped. The Qin army marched south to Bashu, and the stubborn defense of the four and a half divisions such as the Naxi division became meaningless, and they were deeply encircled, and it was likely that they would all die on the left bank of the river.

Thinking of losing another four and a half divisions, Xiong Jing's mood became gloomy.

"Minister, minister retire." Before the attack, he told a bad news, Nao Xin's scalp became harder and harder, but he had already finished speaking.

"Where is the Fifth Division of Jinggui at this time?" Xiong Jing asked about Jing Gui again.

"There has been no report. If you don't go to Nanzheng today, tomorrow will come. "1,600 miles upstream, up to 300 miles a day. Midnight has passed, today is the sixth day of the Battle of Daze, and the five divisions of the Zhu clan should be able to reach Nanzheng today.

"How about the Bigwing Gunboat?" Xiong Jing asked about the Bigwing gunboat again. If the Qin had not blocked the waterway, the Broadwing gunboats might have been able to regain control of the waterway from Nanzheng to Yuguan.

"Several boats have been built in the boatyard, and each one will sail out of the boatyard and go straight to Nanzheng." Nao Xin said. "However, it is more than 2,000 miles from Yingdu to Nanzheng, and it may take ten days for gunboats to sail to Nanzheng, and it may take another ten days to gather more than a dozen gunboats. There are no twenty days ......"

"Stand down." After all the questions were asked, Xiong Jing asked Nao Xin to retreat. His only hope was to build as many large-wing gunboats as possible, and then take advantage of the Qin army's unpreparedness to regain control of the upper reaches of the water. It doesn't matter if the Qin army enters Bashu or not, what matters is to control the water that connects Bashu and Qin, as long as the water is in their own hands, the corn from Shu cannot be transported to Guanzhong.

As for the more than 30,000 people in the rest division, they could only rescue from the Baochu Road before the gunboat arrived, but Jing Gu could really do it? Won't you be blocked by the Qin army in the Bao Chuan Road and the new road? There were more than 100,000 Qin troops under Meng Tian's command.

"Your Majesty, the day will dawn." Fei Jing on the side reminded that he had been standing beside Xiong Jing. Xiong Jingzheng smiled bitterly as he spoke. He felt that on the Western Front, the Chu army was like a traveler who fell off a cliff, half dead and suddenly entangled in the vines under the cliff, and survived, but the entanglement was only temporary, and in the end he had to fall helplessly into the abyss.

Yes, the abyss! Nearly 200,000 people were killed or divided, and only 26 divisions and more than 160,000 people remained in the fightable soldiers of the Chu State. Even with the remnants of the Three Kingdoms of Zhao and Weiqi, the strength of the army is less than 250,000. These 250,000 people are also stationed in a defensive line that is 3,000 miles long......

"Great King......" Fei Jing thought that Xiong Jing had not heard his words, and when he spoke again, Xiong Jing raised his left hand.

In the drizzle, the sky gradually brightened, and nothing could be seen in the night, and when the twilight gradually dispersed, the Chu army wrapped in the night revealed its true face. In addition to the more than 4,000 cavalry members of the Yingshi Cavalry, the Xiangshi Cavalry, the Hubei Division, and the Ruoao Clan、......, all the cavalry of the Chu army were concentrated here.

Xiong Jing didn't have any hope for the Western Front before, and he has been paying attention to Li Xin in the past few days.

Yeyi abandoned the guard, the Guanguan abandoned the guard, the Yangqiu abandoned the guard, the Echeng abandoned the guard, and even the center of gravity of the Fangcheng, Wancheng also abandoned. The previous time Li Xin attacked Fangcheng, he was young, this time I heard that Li Xin attacked Fangcheng again, and the Chu army was all transferred to Nanzheng.

Li Xin's army, which entered Fangcheng, did not slaughter the people like last time, and the Qin army was more concerned about the ripe millet seedlings in the fields. Accompanying the Qin army were hundreds of thousands of Xindi Qianshou who had been requisitioned from Han Di, each of whom carried a sickle, and cut the ripe millet seedlings in the fields everywhere they went. The cut millet people pulled cattle and transported them all back to Xiangcheng outside Fangcheng.

If there is a great hunger in the country, they will eat in other countries, and the Qin people have long been familiar with this routine. Although the people of Han were disgusted with the rule of the Qin people, when the Qin army led them to invade Chu and loot on a large scale, these people immediately changed their faces and became elated. In addition to the corn harvest, the clothes and utensils left behind in the village houses, the farm tools and raw birds that were hidden were all swept away by them, like the crops that locusts had eaten on.

"Your Majesty, it's dawn." Fei Jing didn't speak, and he didn't know why the king hadn't given an order yet, and the second division led Jing Sheng to say again.

"The second division is the front army, and the flag will die down and advance!" Xiong Jing raised his left hand and put it down, and the drizzle stopped, and in front of him was a field of crops left after harvesting. In the era when there were no ditches and ridges, the roots of millet seedlings seemed to be wild grasslands, clumps after clumps, barren loess was soaked in rain mud, and thirty miles away was the place where the two armies fought last year: Xiangcheng.

"The second division is the front army, and the whole army will die down and advance!" The order was quickly conveyed by the cavalry, and all the military flags that were originally held high by the divisions were put down. The second division led by Jing Sheng led the way in front, and after running for five or six miles, the speed of the horses gradually slowed down, and at this time, the cavalry on the north bank of Rushui slowly advanced.
