Chapter 879 Zhao Jun goes south(2/2)

The counties in the east captured Hanzhong and made great achievements..."

Suddenly, the sound of rapid horse hooves interrupted Feng Yanzhang's laughter. A fast horse rushed to Feng Yanzhang with a scout, and reported in a sharp voice: "Report! General Qi, there is an urgent report from Chenggu.

The Zhao army has entered Hanzhong, captured Bao City, and fought to the outside of Chenggu City."

Feng Yanzhang was stunned for a moment. He didn't react for a while, and he pointed at the city in front. After a while, his expression changed and he hurriedly said: "What's going on? Zhao Jun? How could Zhao Jun appear in Chenggu?"

?And Baocheng was captured by the Zhao army, what happened?"

The faces of the generals around Feng Yanzhang also changed drastically. Zhao Jun entered Hanzhong... Zhao Jun had already captured Baocheng and attacked the central part of Hanzhong. How is this possible?

"Reporting to the general, three days ago, the Zhao army broke out from the checkpoint controlled by the Han army in the north. They raided Baocheng at night and headed straight for the city. However, because there were no large armies stationed in the cities along the way, they were still there.

The Zhao army captured the city before it could react. Now there are only 5,000 defenders in the city, and it is still an important place for our army to store food. General Chu is worried that the city will be difficult to resist, so he asked the general for help."

When Feng Yanzhang heard this, his face turned pale for a moment. Chenggu was located to the west of the West City, which was the county seat that the Shu army had captured earlier. Now, it is the place where the Shu army hoarded food and supplies. Now 10,000 Shu troops are storming the West City, and the city is firmly defended.

There are only about 5,000 troops. If Zhao Jun were to occupy this place... Feng Yanzhang simply couldn't imagine such a situation.

As for why the Zhao army appeared in Hanzhong, it goes without saying that it was the Han army who let it in. This is exactly what the Shu army was worried about. Therefore, the Shu army has not dared to easily force the pass in the north occupied by the Han army.

The city was so large that they were afraid that the Han troops would take risks and abandon the northern pass to allow Zhao troops to come in. Unexpectedly, this fear turned into reality.

"How could the Han army let the Zhao army enter? How could it be possible..." Feng Yanzhang lost his sight for a moment and muttered to himself.

"General, now we are not worried about why the Han army went out to let the Zhao army enter, but we need to guard against the loss of the city. If the city is occupied by the Zhao army, our army will be attacked from behind by the Zhao army. More importantly, this

The food and supplies for the 10,000-strong army are completely gone," the deputy general said urgently.

"Yes! Yes! Yes..." Feng Yanzhang suddenly woke up and quickly asked the messenger: "How many Zhao troops are there in the attack?"

"Reporting back to the general, according to the intelligence coming from Shuangxi City in the north, the people entering Hanzhong this time are the Zhao army from the eighth town of the Forbidden Army, and there are soldiers from the capital who are marching towards Chenggu."

"One capital soldier? Zhao Jun's establishment, one capital is 5,000 people. Zhao Jun's military strength is comparable to that of Chenggu. It stands to reason that Chenggu can occupy the advantageous location and recruit the young men in the city to resist Zhao Jun.

.However, our army has been fighting for a long time and our soldiers are exhausted, while Zhao’s army has gone out to fight with high morale and full energy. Therefore, our army’s advantage is not obvious.”
