Chapter 1051: Success in the East and Success in the West (Forty-Four)

After reading the stack of military reports that Kumamoto brought, even Zhou Yuan and Tian Dan had confused looks in their eyes.

"Two old men, after the Qin army arrived in Dayan County, they have been sending troops to sweep around and search for food and grass. However, due to an accidental factor a few days ago, our scouts discovered that many of their teams went out, but few came back. Report this After I came back, I paid attention to it, and after I sent out the scouts again, I asked them to pay special attention to this point. Sure enough, the opponent's actions have been increasing in intensity in the past two days, and Wang Xiao is using this action to mobilize troops." Xiong Bendao said. .

"Have you figured out where the final goal of these troops going out is?" Zhou Yuan raised his head from the military report and asked.

"This is also the land+pig+pig+island+novel ww.zhom place that puzzles me. All the armies set out on different routes and seemed to have no goal, but their final direction was Ladurie." Kumamoto He shook his head and said, "What did they go to that place for?"

"Did you bring a map?" Tian Dan asked.

"Bring it with you, I know the two elders will definitely want to read the map!" Kumamoto took out the map from his arms and spread it on the table.

Two white-haired heads were placed on the map and they looked at it for a long time. When they raised their heads, the four eyes showed a look of shock.

"Have you two elders seen any clues?" Kumamoto asked tentatively.

Tian Dan held out a finger and said, "If my guess is correct, they should go here!" The place Tian Dan pointed to was a bright yellow.

"Desert?" Kumamoto exclaimed: "Are they looking for death?"

"You may not die!" Zhou Yuan shook his head and sighed: "We have been guessing what Wang Xiao wants to do? Unexpectedly, it is like this. He is indeed one of the most famous generals in the world, and he actually came up with this trick. Stay here. It's a dead end, but breaking into the desert and maybe still having a chance of survival is amazing."

"Then do we need to go out to stop it?" Kumamoto asked, suddenly shaking his head in distress, "There are only more than 10,000 regular troops in the city now, and there is no strength to attack. If we attack, I am afraid that we will play into Wang Xiao's hands and trick us before we die. Bundle."

"Since Wang Xiao has made such an arrangement, he must be prepared and there is no need to leave the city." Zhou Yuan said: "Breaking into the desert is a narrow escape. If they really let them break through, it would be a good thing for us Central Plains people. things."

"What's so good about it?" Kumamoto scratched his head, "If we let them get through, this would leave a hidden danger for us big men."

"That's not necessarily true!" A Qinglang's voice came from outside the door. The three of them turned around and when they saw the person coming, they all clasped their fists and shouted: "Sun Duhu!"

Now Xiong Ben is Sun Xiao's subordinate. Although Zhou Yuan and Tian Dan had high status in the past, they are now ordinary people. Sun Xiao is their parent official. Sun Xiao respects them, but they will not lose their etiquette.

"After receiving your notice, I came here and just listened outside the door!" Although Sun Xiao has now become a civil servant and has been studying extremely hard over the years, the martial arts habits he has developed over the years have not He still couldn't completely change it, and every move he made showed his past experiences.

"Two gentlemen, General Xiong!" Sun Xiao returned the salute with clasped fists. He walked to the front of the big case and looked at the eye-catching yellow on the map. "At the end of last year, a small Xiongnu tribe successfully crossed the desert. From there, We came back from the border, but it was very miserable when we came back. When the entire tribe of more than 1,000 people arrived at our place, only less than 200 people were left. A few old people and children could not be seen, and they all died in the desert. "

"Since they have already passed, why did they come back?" Kumamoto asked in surprise.

Sun Xiao smiled and said, "I was also very surprised, so after settling them, I found their leader to ask for details about that place. You know, we know nothing about that place."

"What exactly is the situation over there?"

"The people over there said that it is indeed a good place with fertile land and a suitable climate." Sun Xiao said with a smile.

"He's just lying to people. If that's true, will they come back?" Kumamoto laughed.

"He is not lying. It is indeed a good place there, but there are so many countries, big and small. According to him, a force with only a thousand soldiers and horses is actually a king. The land is no more than a hundred miles and the people are no more than tens of thousands. It is called a king. The country is indeed very ridiculous!" Sun Xiao shrugged and said.

"So, it's a mess over there?" Tian Dan said, stroking his long beard.

"It's not that it's a mess, it's that it's a mess that has no edge at all!" Sun Xiao said with a smile: "Today you beat me, tomorrow I'll beat you, or you just destroyed a country today, and tomorrow you will be destroyed by someone else, so then Although the land is fertile, it is extremely poor, and the war will never stop one day. After they followed a large Xiongnu tribe and experienced untold hardships, they then fell into endless battles. At first, they They suffered some losses, but as time went by, with the strong combat effectiveness of the cavalry, they not only gained a firm foothold, but also destroyed several countries. But in recent years, as their power gradually expanded, then The small countries on the border united and launched a war against them, and the fighting was fierce. After all, they were outsiders. They suffered heavy losses when they crossed the desert, and their strength has never recovered. They have been beaten badly in the past two years. The life of the small tribes was even more difficult, so they took the risk and ran back again."

"So, if the Qin army runs to that place, there is a lot to be done!" Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

"In any case, they and we have the same origin and ancestry. They are all Central Plains people. If they go there and really create a world, then it will also be the country of us Central Plains people, right?" Sun Xiao Hehe smiled and said, "So, let them go! I sincerely hope that they can cross the desert and create a new world for us Central Plains people there."

"Aren't you worried that they will really gain a foothold somewhere and then send their troops to fight back?" Tian Dan looked at Sun Xiao with a somewhat surprised look in his eyes.

"We big men never worry about the enemy. If one day comes, we will just defeat them!" Sun Xiao laughed and said: "I believe that by the time they become stronger, we big men will have already become towering trees. Their little tree will be like a towering tree." If you want to shake us, you are probably overestimating your capabilities!"

Sun Xiao stood proudly, and his words revealed strong self-confidence.

"Okay, Protector is so heroic!" Zhou Yuan and Tian Dan both applauded.

"Wang Xiao broke his arm to survive. In order to let his subordinates escape smoothly, he will definitely launch an offensive against us. We should prepare to defend the city." Zhou Yuan said seriously: "Now they are in a desperate situation. , have become mourning soldiers. Although the saying that mourning soldiers will win does not apply to them, we cannot take it lightly. I still want to go fishing in Dayan Lake!"

"Don't worry, Lieutenant, everything in the city is ready. Moreover, Zhou Laowen is only two days away from Dayan City." Sun Xiao said with a smile, "If Wang Xiao had not left, then his ending would have been... Here it is. In a few days, you can go fishing in Dayan Lake. Then I will bother you and eat the silverback fish you made by yourself!"

"Okay, okay, I'll sweep the bed and wait for you!" Zhou Yuan burst out laughing.

Zhou Laowei was in a very unhappy mood. He hurried all the way from Jicheng to Jishi City. He was extremely excited to return to his hometown to fight. However, halfway through, the king and his soldiers abandoned the large army and left. , but the 20,000 cavalry he brought with him could only come later due to supply problems.

But it didn't matter that he was slow. By the time he arrived at Jishi City, the entire Jishi County was already celebrating the victory of the battle. Except for Dan Yu who ran away with 5,000 cavalry, the 100,000 Qin troops were all destroyed in the massacre. The grasslands on the grassland were either turned into fertilizers or taken as prisoners. His 20,000 cavalrymen had nothing to do with him. This made him very angry. In his mind, he cursed the Ministry of Household official in charge of supplies. Although he also Knowing that this time the war happened suddenly, it was already good that Tobe could do that, but he still couldn't help but want to curse, but he couldn't curse his own brother, right? The only choice was to let Wang Wu directly come to top the tank, anyway. This guy has become accustomed to being scolded over the years.

This time he goes to Dayan City again. Zhou Laowang doesn't want to let good things slip away from his hands. Now that Wang Xiao is facing a desperate situation, his military morale must be weakened. If Sun Xiao is allowed to do something wrong again, Wang Xiao will be eliminated. This trip of mine can be regarded as leading an army in an armed parade and traveling at public expense.

"Speed ​​up, speed up, if you don't want to run in vain again, go a little faster!" Zhou Laowang changed from his usual style and roared vigorously. The subordinates who are familiar with him all know his character. When a wizened old man becomes like this, he is really angry.

The vanguard led by He Weigao was the first to arrive at Dayan City. Although Sun Xiao estimated that Zhou Laowei would need two more days of work, in fact, under Zhou Laowei's urging, the vanguard of the Young Guards arrived a full day ahead of schedule. Arrive at Dayan City.

When the banner of the Young Guards appeared outside Dayan City, there were thunderous cheers in the city, and the Qin army that was attacking the city immediately withdrew.

The camp that could hold an army of 50,000 people now had less than 20,000 people left. Two cavalry armies under the command of Zhou Laowen tightly surrounded the Qin army. When reinforcements arrived, Xiongben immediately led the infantry out of the city. , participated in the final siege of the Qin army.

In the end, Zhou Laowen was not able to make any decent military exploits, because after besieging the Qin army for two days, Wang Xiao left a suicide note in Zhou Yuan's mansion, ordering the entire army to surrender to the Han army, and then committed suicide. , the Qin army, without food and grass, had no way out, put down its weapons, walked out of the camp, and surrendered to the Han army, which made Zhou Lao withered.

And just when the Qin army surrendered, the main force of the Qin army, led by Wang Jian, stepped into the desert with three steps at a time. (To be continued...)
