Chapter 319: Attacking the Imperial Capital of Chu Kingdom for the Reader of Great Fables 3

After Long Fen's death, the Chu army once again fell into a leaderless situation. Fortunately, they were not at war, but at this extraordinary moment, Long Fen's death was nothing short of a shock to people's hearts.

Several volunteers rushed to the border, only to find that the imperial army had escaped, which put them in an embarrassing situation.

Going to fight Wei Jun?

Although they are all made up of poor people, they are not fools. The official army of the imperial court was defeated by the Wei army and fled south. Can they be my opponents?

So, these volunteer soldiers were disbanded on the spot and returned to their hometown.

They don't dare to do some useless work.

At this point, Zhao Changqing finally established a foothold on the border of Chu State.

After Long Fen died, the army stationed near the capital.

The soldiers of the Chu army met with the Emperor of Chu, who asked them all to fight against the rebels.

Soon, the ragtag rebels were defeated by the imperial army.

But this battle was quite boring, because they were all from the Chu State, and now that the country was being invaded, they had to fight back and forth with their own people. This would make no one feel good about it!

After temporarily repelling the rebels, the ministers of Chu State discussed countermeasures with Emperor Chu.

At present, the entire Chu State is in panic.

Seeing that the Wei army was about to attack, the Chu State had no commanders capable of shouldering the important task of repelling the Wei State. Under such a dangerous situation, it seemed that the only option was to flee south or surrender and seek peace.

Emperor Chu will not consider the former for the time being.

At that time, Wei Renzong watched his Chu army approaching the capital, but he did not escape.

Am I not as good as this old rival?

No matter what, Emperor Chu was unwilling to escape.

It would be too shameful to do that, it would be infamy for thousands of years, and it would bring disgrace to our ancestors.

Sum?

Although this method is embarrassing, it is a temporary measure after all, and it can be considered.

But can Wei Guo accept it?

No matter what, I still have to give it a try.

Then Chu State sent envoys to the Wei camp.

The envoy to Wei camp was worried all the time on the way, and his pants were almost wet.

Who doesn't know that one of the things the Emperor of Wei liked to do the most was to kill envoys? If he went to the Wei camp, wasn't he looking for death?

At first, the envoys who went to the Wei army had some illusions. After all, they were going to seek peace, not to cause trouble.

Wei Jun shouldn't kill him, right?

However, when Wei Jun's knife was placed on his neck, he realized that what he had just thought was completely wrong.

The Wei State was not willing to seek peace at all.

Before he died, he vaguely remembered what the Emperor of Wei said to him, "Seek peace? Okay, bring all Chu's territory into Wei's territory, and depose the Emperor of Chu. Otherwise, ask for peace."

It is impossible to ask for peace, and it is impossible to ask for peace in this life. Now that you have finished speaking, take him out to sacrifice the flag!"

In this way, the envoy from Chu State died in a daze.

The news that Zhao Changqing killed the envoy spread again. From this moment on, everyone in the world knew and believed one thing. The Emperor of Wei really had the habit of killing envoys.

Not to mention, the preferences of Wei’s monarchs and ministers are quite special.

A king likes to kill his envoys, and a minister likes to kill prisoners.

After the death of Chu's envoy, Zhao Changqing summoned three armies, totaling 500,000 troops, and marched south to prepare to storm the capital of Chu.

As long as the capital of Chu State is captured, the war in Chu State will be half successful.

Originally there were 700,000 troops.

The reason why there are still 500,000 troops now is because the need to garrison the captured towns, as well as the soldiers who were killed or injured in the war, have resulted in a reduction in the number of troops.

Zhao Changqing has already written to King Changlin, asking him to bring all his Changlin troops to the battlefield of Wei and Chu.

Almost half a year has passed since the new army's training, and it's time for this army to see blood.

In this way, Wei State really used millions of troops to conquer Chu State.

The veterans who followed Zhao Changqing all the way have never fought such a wealthy battle in their lives.

In the blink of an eye, the Wei army was so powerful that it had captured twelve cities of Chu one after another, and finally reached Xuanxiao Pass.

Once you break through Xuanxiao Pass, you will find the capital of the Chu Kingdom.

Zhao Changqing stood in the military camp, looked at the Yunxiao Pass in front of him, and said: "I think this pass is just average. How can it be worthy of the title of Yunxiao?"

Bai Qi stood aside and explained: "Your Majesty, this pass is called Yunxiao Pass because there are towering mountain peaks on both sides of this pass, so it is called Yunxiao Pass. It is said that this pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack, even if it was attacked back then.

The Chu State's overwhelmingly powerful Jin army only fought in front of Yunxiao Pass. Seeing that they could not be defeated for a long time, they made peace with the Chu State."

Zhao Changqing sneered and said: "Now that even the Jin Kingdom belongs to us, why can't my soldiers conquer a small Yunxiao Pass? Order the soldiers to rest for three days and attack the city after three days!"

Bai Qi heard the sound and solemnly clasped his fists and said: "No!"

It is true that Yunxiao Pass is easy to defend but difficult to attack, but it is also true that the morale of the Wei army is high at this moment.

In the capital city of Chu State.

Emperor Chu finally understood how Wei Renzong felt at the time.

The feeling of enemy troops approaching the city is really unpleasant.

But at that time, a eldest prince appeared in the Wei army, but what about now?

Emperor Chu looked at his eldest son who had long been consumed by drinking and sex, with a look of helplessness on his face. He shook his head and sighed: "Everyone, do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?"

What is the strategy for retreating from the enemy? The Wei army came to Xuanxiao Pass with an invincible force. What other strategy is there for retreating from the enemy?

Shouldn't we take advantage of this buffering opportunity to escape?

Emperor Chu patted his head. Over the past few days, he had been worrying about repelling the enemy, but he still could not think of any good ideas. He could only sigh: "The civil and military officials in this dynasty are all mediocre!"

The ministers looked at each other one by one, and they didn't dare to speak. What else could be said at this time?

Be silent!

Once Xuanxiao Pass is broken, it's time to escape.

Of course, this is only part of the idea. A considerable number of these ministers of the Chu State are still willing to die for the Chu State, just hoping that one of them will die a worthy death.

The Emperor of Chu had no choice but to announce his resignation.

Currently, he has gathered all the soldiers under Long Fen at Xuanxiao Pass. There are a total of 300,000 troops. This should be able to protect Xuanxiao Pass from being conquered by the Wei army in a short time, right?

Maybe the Wei army could be allowed to withdraw after being unable to attack for a long time?

Originally, Chu State had prepared at least more than 600,000 troops to resist the invasion of Wei State. However, after experiencing several wars, they were already fighting to the death, fleeing, and cooperating with the local army near the capital.

Three hundred thousand troops were raised.

I don’t know how long these 300,000 people can hold on in the end.

Distraught, he went to the Assembly Hall.

There are many people from the Chu Kingdom here, and they are all masters. Now, the only thing left to do is to listen to their opinions.

But after listening to it for a while, I found that there was nothing worthy of pertinent opinions.

These people, when it comes to marching and fighting, it seems that this is the same thing. They either fight to the death or die in the battle.

How can things be so simple!

Finally, a senior expert from the Taoist Palace of Chu State said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, Pindao has a plan that may be able to defeat the Wei army."

Emperor Chu knew the abilities of these people in the Taoist sect, so he quickly asked: "This is getting hotter, so please ask the Taoist master to speak frankly!"

After the Taoist priest nodded, he said: "In my Taoist school, there is a formation called Zhoutian Xingdou Formation, which contains the mystery of Qimen Dunjia. Relying on this formation, the Wei army may be able to lose troops and retreat, and then retreat."

Emperor Chu had heard of the legend that in ancient times, counselors set up shocking killing formations and killed countless enemies.

But this is a legend!
