After thinking about this, Kushu did not hesitate and immediately ordered the withdrawal of troops.

The rushing bugle sounded, and the attacking Daeyoung army listened to the bugle. There was no change on their faces, but they breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

It's not that they are afraid of subsequent siege, but that forcing a siege when morale has plummeted will only be counterproductive. They are fine with dying on the battlefield, but there are two different opinions if they die on the battlefield.

The mighty siege troops began to evacuate in an orderly manner. Liu Shengming, who was half in charge of the battle, did not look good.

Even though Kushu didn't blame him, or even said anything, he left, but this kind of behavior was a kind of warning.

Opposite the Liang soldiers, such a sharp archer appeared, and with the strange explosive arrows, he, a craftsman who had been lurking in the territory of Da Liang for many years, was incompetent at his job.

If this is not figured out, Liu Shengming's good days will come to an end.

Liu Shengming looked at Nancheng District with solemn eyes for a long time before turning and leaving.

The Daliang soldiers also breathed a sigh of relief when the Da Rong army withdrew, and did not send troops to pursue them.

They were originally guarding the city, so they sent people to pursue them? That's not a sheep entering the tiger's mouth. No matter how many people come, they are not enough to fill the gap between Da Rong's teeth. Only fools would be foolish enough to go out of the city to fight.

At this time, the city tower was filled with lively cheers. They had never won such a victory before.

At this critical moment, many people were already thinking of going to death, but in the end they not only withstood the pressure, but also temporarily forced back the Daiei army.

All of this must be thanked to Su Qian, a seemingly powerless scholar who never expected to have such a fierce side.

Fan Wenzhong and Xie Cang, who had returned to the city safely at this time, quickly came to the tower without even taking a rest, wanting to see Su Qi'an.

Su Qi'an was shot by an arrow and fell to the ground. They saw it clearly and were in a panic along the way, fearing that something would happen to Su Qi'an.

Pushing aside a group of soldiers, Su Qi'an was supported by someone. The two of them stepped forward quickly. Just as they were about to speak, Su Qi'an raised a smile on his lips, casually pulled out the arrow from his armpit, and said with a smile.

.

"Haha, it seems that this junior is luckier. Even God favors me and I was lucky enough to escape."

"You kid! You scared me to death." Xie Cang punched Su Qian's chest hard and cursed with a smile.

But the tension in the words was palpable.

Fan Wenzhong beside him, with a smile on his face, said with a smile, "As long as it's okay, it'll be okay."

"You little kid, you're very well hidden. This time Xie Cang really brought me a man who is talented in both civil and military affairs. This is my luck."

"The situation is urgent. This junior is a little reckless and can't take care of so much."

"Harm, it's nothing. Those who go to the battlefield will not be affected by the environment. It is normal for their blood to boil. I think your performance should be that of a soldier who has completely conquered Zhenjun City."

"Su Wawa, you are a qualified commander."

As soon as he finished speaking, the voices of approval from several captains, captains, and soldiers came from behind.

"Yes, the coach is right. In today's battle, Mr. Su opened our eyes. I, Old Xu, am a rough man. I was a little offended by Mr. Su before. I hope Mr. Su won't blame me. In the future, if Mr. Su just says a word, Mr. Xu will be killed."

There is absolutely no ambiguity about the fire and sea under the mountain."

"Lao Xu said it well. Count me in. Mr. Xu will take charge in the future. We will definitely have no complaints."

"..."

Seeing the heartfelt words of the big men in front of him, Su Qi'an cupped his hands and nodded solemnly.

He knew that Fan Wenzhong was paving the way for him and building up his reputation. If nothing else, at least in Zhenjun City, these soldiers would not look down upon Su Qi'an, but would admire him from the inside out.

This battle has just begun. Su Qi'an will still have many uses in the future. When using people to command, you must first be united and obey the commander.

Young men like Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan, no matter how much money they spend on raising people, they can't cultivate a steel division.

Not being convinced is the biggest reason.

After this battle, whether it was Fan Wenzhong, Xie Cang, or some of the lower-level officers and soldiers, they seemed to have a closer relationship with Su Qi'an.

During the conversation, laughter broke out from time to time, and the atmosphere was incredibly harmonious.

Watching this scene, Zheng Liang and other young masters behind him were quite envious, but they were helpless.

Fan Wenzhong was very smart, and he didn't ask much about the explosive arrows shot by Su Qi'an.

After all, everyone has their own secrets and trump cards. Su Qi'an was able to reveal his trump cards when they were in danger and fight to the death to cover them up, which moved everyone.

Who wouldn't know why to ask such a question at this time?

In this battle, Daei's army withdrew. It seemed like a victory, but in fact it was a tragic victory.

Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan's 8,000 troops were nearly wiped out, and Xie Cang's elite Split Mountain Army only managed to defeat a thousand or so people.

The Tiger and Leopard troops who came to respond suffered more than 3,000 casualties, which could be described as a serious loss of vitality.

Although the Daiei siege troops also suffered losses of over 10,000, their troops were too numerous. Taking into account the losses before and after, the Daiei army still had 80,000 troops.

On the other hand, there were less than 20,000 people left in Zhenjun City. This kind of one-to-one loss was really not worth the gain.

And the source of all this is for those two young masters.

Not long after, Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan were sent in by soldiers.

At this time, the two of them had disheveled hair and were wearing gold and noble armor, but their eyes were dull and they looked lost, as if they were frightened.

As soon as the two were pushed in, the lively and lively atmosphere in the venue suddenly turned into silence.

The soldiers who gathered did not speak, but looked at the two men with eyes that made them want to kill them.

If these two were not from prominent families, they would have been hacked to death long ago.

The two of them sensed this low and depressing atmosphere and quickly came to their senses. Zhao Ang looked at Fan Wenzhong with a solemn face and said quickly.

"Mr. Fan, this war was caused by junior's greed and unauthorized advancement, which caused such great harm. I know that my crime is very serious. I have nothing to say. I will let Mr. Fan handle everything. I will have absolutely no complaints."

Zhao Ang is worthy of being the prince of Kyoto, and what he said is absolutely true.

There was no excuse. In order not to cause public outrage, I honestly took the responsibility for the crime, took the initiative to accept the punishment, and let Fan Wenzhong handle everything.

It seems that he is handing over the initiative, but in fact he is giving himself the greatest protection.

His identity was there, he took the initiative to admit his mistake, and at least he had a good attitude. Even if Fan Wenzhong was punished, it would be impossible for him to actually chop off their heads for the crime.

If he really does this, I'm afraid Fan Wenzhong will be transferred out of Ningzhou the next day.

This trick is to advance before retreating, and it really works every time.

Zhao Ang expressed his stance, and Zhou Yan immediately followed suit.

The two men's attitudes were extremely sincere. Although he knew what they were thinking, Fan Wenzhong really didn't dare to chop off their heads.

Just when Fan Wenzhong was thinking about how to deal with the two of them, Su Qian's voice suddenly sounded.

"Mr. Fan, I think Lord Zhao and Lord Zhou still have an attitude of admitting their mistakes. In this case, let's deal with them lightly."

As soon as these words came out, Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan were stunned for a moment. Their relationship with Su Qi'an was not good, it could be said to be quite bad.

At this time, Su Qi'an did not add insult to injury, but instead spoke for them. This is really incredible.

Bu Jie Gui Bu Jie, the two of them would not think so much. Since someone is asking for mercy, it would be better. Su Qi'an should be the one to please them.

If I have a chance in the future, I'll watch Su Qian's performance and just give him a hand when the time comes.

Just as the two of them were thinking this, Su Qian's voice sounded again.

"This time the Da Rong army withdraws, we have temporarily won, but the pressure is great. Let's let the two marquises take the blame and make meritorious service, and go with us to other military cities to move reinforcements and pick up reinforcements. If this is done,

It should be able to offset the guilt of the two princes."

Fan Wenzhong touched his beard, nodded and said, "Well, since Su Wawa has come forward to say so, I will give them a chance for your sake."

"Zhao Ang, Zhou Yan, are you willing to go to other military cities to provide support?"

It seemed that Fan Wenzhong gave them a multiple-choice question, but in fact, how did the two of them have the right to refuse?

Once they refuse, I'm afraid they will really have to lie down and leave here. Once this group of vulgar and reckless people are angered, the consequences will be very serious.

The two of them felt bitter in their hearts, so they bowed their hands to Fan Wenzhong and accepted the job.

But the eyes that casually glanced at Su Qi'an were full of hatred.

Only now did they see clearly that Su Qian's intention was not to plead for the two of them, but to force them to die.

Leaving Zhenjun City and heading to other military cities to receive reinforcements may seem like a good job, but in fact it is full of dangers.

Now the purpose of the Cook Technique was exposed, and the army was gathered just to capture Zhenjun City.

Fan Wenzhong sent people to ask for help. They all thought that as the most powerful second prince of the Great Rong Kingdom, how could Ku Shu not think of it.

Don't worry, as long as you leave the city, you will definitely encounter an attack from Daeyoung's army along the way.

Even if you are lucky enough to escape, the road leading to other military cities is harsh and full of wind and sand. If you encounter a sandstorm, you will be lost directly.

Even if he is not pursued by Daeyoung's army by then, he will probably die in a harsh environment.

Compared with the besieged Zhenjun City, it is the safest place.

This Su Qian really has no good intentions.

The two of them cursed Su Qi'an in their hearts. If they had the chance to return to Kyoto, they would definitely kill him.

Not long after the two of them took over this chore, suddenly, Zheng Liang, who was standing behind them, walked out.

He said to Fan Wenzhong, "Mr. Fan, since I have come to Zhenjun City, I am one of them. Now that we have reached such a critical moment, it can be said to be a matter of life and death."

"This junior is willing to accompany Zhao Ang and Zhou Yan to pick up the reinforcements and do his part for this war. I also hope that Mr. Fan will help you."

When these words came out, Su Qi'an was a little surprised, but then he thought about it. As the leader of this group of young men, it was normal for Zheng Liang to set an example at this time.
