Chapter 63: The Desolate Qin Army
It has been three days since Hengya and Lu Gong retreated into the forest, and Murong Tuoba and Lao Jin, who had followed Qi Gong all the way, did not understand until they saw the woods. But it was too late to attack now, and it was just a matter of eating the few thousand-man teams guarding behind. No more than two or three thousand people were captured and killed, which was far from the stated goal of the Donghu people.
The lack of food and clothing in the forest made the permanent teeth and the deer even more annoying. There is actually a team of Donghu people in the depths of the forest, and they are obviously more difficult than those Donghu people outside. The Qin army was exhausted by the raids every night, and these guys were obviously extremely good at moving around the woods. In two days, the Qin army was killed as many as 1,000 people. The army was demoralized and on the verge of collapse.
Gong Qi looked at his depressed and weak soldiers, and his heart was also bitter. Food has been out since yesterday, and the so-called water is snow on the ground. In the cold winter, there are not even a few birds in the forest, let alone any wild animals. Fortunately, Hengya thought of the problem of burning firewood, otherwise hundreds of thousands of people would have been trapped in the wilderness without firewood, and they would have froze and collapsed.
There was one black ash after another on the face of the permanent tooth, and he spent the whole day on the front line of the rescue. In fact, on the day the Qin army entered the forest. The Donghu people thought of setting fire to the forest and burning the Qin army to death in the forest.
The idea is good, but it is very difficult to implement. The forest was full of snow, and it was difficult for rockets to set fire to the trees when they fell on the trunks. Even if a large-scale rocket fire was organized, the Qin army would use the snow to destroy the arrows. It's not a hassle to grab a ball of snow and press it on the rocket.
If Yun Yue was here, it would be much more convenient, and the oil jar would be able to set this forest on fire no matter how much it was smashed. It's a pity that the Donghu people don't have kerosene. After a day of fire failure, I had to give up.
"Nowadays, except for fire prevention, everything else is a trivial matter, and it is not easy to ignite the forest after heavy snowfall. This is our only chance, and the sergeants have been out of food since yesterday. If there is nothing to eat today, I'm afraid these guys are going to eat people. I don't know when Wang Jian will come to save us! Gong Qi sighed, when Changping was fighting. Hundreds of thousands of elite Zhao troops were not so much defeated as starved. The wounded will immediately be slaughtered and eaten by the robe of the sunset, and the Duke of Qi can see with his own eyes the tragic scene of cannibalism and cannibalism.
I didn't expect that one day, I would fall into such a field with my army. Captain Baggage had been persuaded to bring some dry food. As a result, he was rigid and self-serving, and in order to travel lightly and save trouble, he only brought a day's dry food. Regret it now, it's too late. Every time he thinks of this, he has the urge to commit suicide.
"The general doesn't have to blame himself, we are all soldiers of Great Qin. Now even if you run out of ammunition and food, you have to persevere, what about cannibalism. As long as these Donghu people can be repelled, what if Hengya gives up his life. Permanent Tooth said awe-inspiringly. Duke Qi glanced at this good general who swore to be loyal to Great Qin in surprise, if it weren't for the fact that he had organized the five hundred cavalry of his closest trust. He also gave them the last of the food, and the Duke would definitely believe that the permanent tooth was a hero.
At this point, there is no need to expose each other's scars. It's also good to be able to run out with people, and judging from the current performance, Permanent Tooth is already a qualified general. Even if this battle is lost, it is good to leave a general for Great Qin.
However, he was not so lucky, and buried hundreds of thousands of troops. When he returns to Xianyang, he will definitely be played into a sieve by the official. In the end, it's just a death, and it's better to leave a little bit of fire. Maybe the permanent tooth will look at his own face in the future and appease his own nephew.
The situation has reached this point, and the Duke of Qi no longer expects to be able to get out alive. Maybe Wang Qian's army will be able to arrive, but God knows if he will be able to survive until that time.
"What? The army was defeated and surrounded! Do you want Lao Tzu to send troops to the rescue? Chang Yu's eyes widened as he looked at the lieutenant general sent by Duke Qi to ask for help.
"Changxin Hou, please read the love of the Great Qin military at the same time to save the general. If you don't have anything to eat in the snow and ice, you will collapse in less than three days. The tower-like man knelt in front of Chang Yu, kowtowing to the point that his head and face were covered in blood. I just want Chang Yu to be able to lend a hand!
"I know that that old thing is not a good work, how many times did Lao Tzu persuade him to let them stick to Yongdu! Stick to Yongdu! But did he listen? I have to attack with a large army, now it's good. Surrounded by the Donghu people, counting on Lao Tzu to go out of the city to help him? There are 300,000 Donghu people, and it is a dead end for these people under Lao Tzu to go out of the city. Chang Yu pointed at the lieutenant general of the Duke of Qi and roared. A tender white finger almost touched the tip of his nose.
"Master Hou! The last general knew that the general had offended Hou Ye a lot on weekdays, and his subordinates couldn't compensate the general here. After saying that, it was a kowtow of "bang" and "bang", and the marble floor tiles on the ground were all shattered. The blood on his head was spilled all over the ground, and it seemed that Chang Yu did not plan to send troops. He's going to die here!
"Drag it out! I was upset when I saw it, and Lao Tzu sent troops to rescue the old immortal. Who will protect the Queen Mother, who will protect Yongdu. Yongdu is lost, can you afford this responsibility? Drag Lao Tzu out! ”
Chang Yu scolded, and immediately a warrior in front of the palace rushed over and pulled the deputy general up.
"Hello! You bastard, a little white face who eats soft rice. It's just that the soft hand of the glutinous man didn't kill you at the beginning, and Lao Tzu fought with you. When you die, you will be pulled on your back! "The deputy general is in a hurry, and Duke Qi sent himself out at a critical moment to ask for help from Xianyang. But where will Xianyang's reinforcements be close to Yongdu, and the deputy general came to the Dazheng Palace with a glimmer of hope to prepare to see the Queen Mother. But he didn't want to be stopped by Chang Yu, and now Chang Yu doesn't plan to send troops.
The destruction of hundreds of thousands of brothers is imminent, and the adjutant general has no intention of living. Just thinking about dying, I also want to kill this fake eunuch.
Chang Yu was unexpectedly stuck in the neck by the other party, and looked at the deputy general's bloody pupils on his face. Chang Yu was already frightened, and he only knew how to struggle but forgot to resist. The two guards behind him punched and kicked, but they couldn't let him go.
"A bunch of waste cut off his hands!" Zhao Ji appeared at the door with a big belly, and immediately scolded when she saw this scene.
The two guards glanced at each other, this was the lieutenant general of the Duke of Qi. If the Duke of Qi returns, it will be difficult to save his life if he is killed. But if Zhao Ji's order is not carried out, their lives will not be guaranteed now. "Choking" pulled out his sword, and when he chose an opportunity, he stabbed the deputy general in the ribs.
"Ah......h Chang Yu let out a miserable howl like killing a pig, and the deputy who knew that he was going to die bit Chang Yu in one bite. (To be continued.) )
