Summon players, rebuild Dawei

Chapter 233

Due to the passive response of the Chu army and the early retreat of the general, the siege battle was settled at the beginning of Shenshi that day.

Bu Jingyun sent the Flying Eagles to chase the team that fled from the north gate. The order was to kill as many as they could, not to kill them all.

After the war, Wei Jun spent a whole day counting and detaining the prisoners, cleaning up the battlefield and the remnants of the Chu state in the city, and gathered the officials in the county government for review. The yellow names were kept for use, and the red names were all killed. .

After the hidden dangers in the city were eliminated, Bu Jingyun sent a message to Jiang Shu to let the army enter the city.

In the evening of the next day, the sun shone in the west.

Under the protection of the army, Wei Wang's carriage slowly drove into the city.

When entering the Wengcheng, Jiang Shu lifted the curtain of the window and looked outside.

Although it has been cleaned up initially, the traces of war and artillery fire at the city gate are still eye-catching. Seeing the collapsed wall bricks and the scorched beams and columns with wood ash floating, he seemed to be able to feel the raging fire and black smoke from yesterday.

The structure of this urn city is actually very rigorous, with thick walls and solid bricks and stones. If they don't have sufficient firepower and the enemy's city defense map, it will definitely not be possible to take this city in just a few days.

Replaced by the original army of this era, a [-]-strong army might not be able to attack in a few months.

Lu Qing observed the structure of the Wengcheng, and obviously had the same idea.

He said in a somewhat rejoicing tone: "If the defense of Shanghong and Songcheng is like Fulong in the future, and they fight the Chu army head-on, it will be beneficial to us."

Jiang Shu nodded. If the cities on the offensive route had such a defensive scale, then their ammunition might not be able to support Wulie, and they would be exhausted.

However, as far as Jiang Shu knew, although Shanghong and Songcheng also strengthened their city walls, they did not build Wengcheng. Even if they attacked according to the original plan, they would not spend too much artillery fire.

Therefore, in the war, espionage work is still quite critical.

If Chu State knew that their artillery reserves were not sufficient, perhaps they would not choose to face it head-on.

With Xing Sang's talent for thinking ahead of the times in military affairs, if he devotes all his attention to fortifications and builds every city as strong as Wulie City, then the battle may be deadlocked for a long time.

However, admiration is admiration, Jiang Shu does not feel sorry for Xing Sang and Chu.

The construction of these fortifications requires a huge amount of labor and financial resources. How many people's blood and sweat have been soaked in this thick city wall?

No one knows, and the statistics are afraid that they will not be able to count the results.

Not long after entering the city, the speed of the carriage suddenly became very slow. Jiang Shu was about to ask what was going on, when Qin Lang came to the window of the car and reported: "My lord, the people gathered in front, do you want to send troops to disperse them?"

Jiang Shu raised his eyebrows, looked at Lu Qing who was opposite, and the other party smiled slightly: "It should be the people who welcome the lord."

Jiang Shu understood what he meant, so he said: "Make the army slow down, I'll go out and have a look."

"promise."

As Qin Lang spread the order, the walking speed of the team became slower and slower, and the carriage was almost moving at a turtle speed.

The guard driving the car heard the order and lifted the bamboo curtain in front of the car, and Jiang Shu leaned over and got out of the car.

Standing on the carriage frame and raising his head, he saw hundreds of civilians standing silently on both sides of the road in the distance. They did not deliberately block the road, but the army ahead of them rode horses, worried that they would collide with the people, so they slowed down unconsciously. up the speed.

As the team moved slowly, Jiang Shu gradually saw the faces of those people clearly.

Most of them have vicissitudes of life and thin stature, wearing gray and thin cloth, bare feet, with black soil stuck between their fingernails.

Jiang Shu pursed the corners of her mouth, feeling unspeakable guilt and sadness in her heart.

He thought of the spacious and clean streets of Miryang, clearly in the same piece of land, but the people here seem to live in another world.

It was too late for their army.

The cool evening breeze blew the curtains of the car, and gently brushed the dark blue clothes of the people in the car.

The sky was getting dark, only the orange-red sunset was reflected in the man's eyes, like a flickering fire.

The people of Fulong County looked at the austere and upright young man quietly from a distance. From the moment he came out, they knew that this was the king of Wei from the north and the new ruler of the Han people.

Even though he was standing on a simple carriage, he looked young and handsome, and his figure was not burly. He was not like a hero in people's imagination, and he was not even as majestic as the guards with weapons on his side. They still recognized him at a glance. he.

The flickering light in Gein's pupils was like the blazing sun rising through the night, which was unreasonably daunting.

That ray of light is so brilliant that thousands of people can see it, even hundreds of people can see it!

Stared at by countless expectant eyes, Jiang Shu felt emotional, but he didn't take the opportunity to promise peace and wealth to win people's hearts. He knew what these people wanted to hear most at this moment.

So when the carriage approached the people on both sides, he said loudly: "The Hu captives have been expelled, and Fulong County has returned to the country. You can rest assured."

Hearing this sound, it seemed that the heart that had been ups and downs for a long time finally settled down, and many people wept with emotion, bowing their heads and bowing down one after another: "Thank you King Wei for your kindness!"

Inside the carriage, Lu Qing heard the sound outside, and sighed slightly: "The people's hearts are hoped, and everyone's hope is returned."

"In this battle, our army captured a total of 640 Chu soldiers, captured 200 heads on the battlefield, and the Flying Eagles subsequently killed 820 enemy soldiers. It is roughly estimated that when more than 7000 Chu soldiers were bombarded by artillery fire Among the casualties, the evacuated Chu army was about [-] people.

"The Flying Eagles are not counted. Our army lost 460 soldiers in this battle, three seriously injured 110, and 290 lightly injured..."

Listening to Bu Jingyun's report, Jiang Shu's brows were furrowed, a little uneasy.

In the war that ended in just one day, nearly 7000 people died, which is really a terrible number.

The cruelty of war can be seen at this time.

After reporting the summary of this battle, Bu Jingyun put away the documents and report. Seeing the young man's worried expression, he paused and said in a serious tone: "My lord."

Jiang Shu raised his head and motioned him to continue with his eyes.

"The scouts came to report that the Chu army has arrived in Songcheng." Bu Jingyun said, "I predict that they will approach Fulong County within five days at most."

Jiang Shu nodded in response, knowing what he meant.

It won't be long before a bigger war breaks out between the two armies.

"In the next battle, the King of Chu will definitely go to the battlefield in person." Bu Jingyun's face was calm, "I want to ask you a question, if I kill him when it is really time for you to die, will the lord blame me for not remembering the old love?"

Jiang Shu's expression froze slightly, and he suddenly remembered that Bu Jingyun had reminded him a long time ago that he must be cruel to Xing Sang.

The other party asked again at this time, not only to test his attitude, but also to seek instructions, but if he is a little loose at the moment, Bu Jingyun will have scruples when the two armies are fighting.

Jiang Shu admits that he does have different feelings for the male lead. If there is no such person as Xing Sang in this world, he will probably feel melancholy and empty.

But he has public and private interests, and in this position, it doesn't make any sense to talk about his personal feelings.

Now he is the king of Wei first, and then Jiang Shu.

King Wei's deeds and all decisions should be responsible for his soldiers, officials, and the people of the world.

What do people need?

After experiencing today's events and seeing the current situation of the civilians in Fulong County, Jiang Shu has never realized so clearly that what they need is a unified, stable country without war, a peaceful and prosperous world where the government is well-organized, the people are harmonious, and the people are peaceful.

So, he lowered his eyes and replied calmly: "He is the king of Chu, and after that he will be your former subordinate."

Bu Jingyun breathed a sigh of relief, and said resolutely, "I understand."

Qingzhou, Miankou County, Zhongdun City.

The bright moon was in the sky, shining on the two people in the pavilion, and the breeze was blowing on the treetops, rustling.

The maidservant brought up two servings of sliced ​​watermelons, which were lightly placed beside the tables.

Smelling the sweet aroma unique to this fruit, Xie Min couldn't help turning his eyes away, and landed on the red flesh on the plate.

I don't know what to think of, and I feel a little dazed.

Seeing his youngest son's absent-minded appearance, Xie Xian suddenly flicked a chess piece onto the board, and the black chess piece brushed against several white chess pieces, ruining the chess game immediately.

Xie Min came back to his senses, looked at the shifted pieces on the chessboard, raised his eyebrows slightly: "Father, this is..."

"Hey!" Before he could finish speaking, Xie Xian sighed, "Ah Zi is not focused enough."

With that said, he picked up a piece of watermelon and ate it.

Xie Yin was speechless for a while, although he didn't pay special attention, but he almost won the chess game just now.

But if my father insists on saying this, he has nothing to argue about, it's just a game of chess, so it doesn't matter if you give in.

Xie Xian said as if nothing had happened: "I heard that today, a letter from Nandi was delivered to the mansion, and it was sent by the king of Wei?"

Xie Yin nodded: "Yeah."

"What did you say?"

"It's just business."

Xie Xian smiled, expecting that his son would not tell the truth to him, so he didn't ask any more questions.

Xie Yin picked up the chess pieces and put them in the chess box, and said casually, "How does father think about the battle of Chu?"

"Are you still worried about success or failure?"

Xie Min's tone was light: "It's inevitable."

"You don't have to, your sweetheart is the most honored and honored person, and he will live a long life." Xie Xian put the watermelon rind aside, picked up a towel and wiped his hands, "As for the King of Chu..."

Xie Yan looked up at him.

Xie Xian narrowed his gaze, and shook his head lightly: "This man is not in the right place, and he will not die well."
