Chapter 680 High-rise towers!(1/2)
Looking at the empty Hulao Pass and the battle trails left behind, Chen Tang's heart also sank to the bottom.
He chased and rushed forward, but he was still one step too late!
Wang Kang did raid the Yue Kingdom. What step has he reached now?
As long as you break the portal of Pengcheng, you can go straight to Yuanlu County, unstoppable!
He knows the situation here too well.
When he went on the expedition, he recruited all defense forces on the border, which also gave Wang Kang the greatest chance!
He went deep into the army alone to resolve the dilemma in Zhao State, and must have made the worst plan!
He will die!
Even if he kills all the way and conquers the city and territories, it is a trivial matter.
He will die in the end!
But the bad impact of this incident is immeasurable.
Zhao State is already vulnerable to Yue State, which is the consensus of all citizens.
It also brought a considerable sense of superiority to the Vietnamese country!
You should know that a long time ago, Zhao State was very powerful, which is a historical legacy.
Now that the whole country is in full swing, Yue Jun sent him to fight and forced Zhao to sign a treaty of compensation again!
It's just to let him win again!
On this occasion, we will use our whole country to use military forces against the northern nomads...
This is a national policy!
However, he did not bring great victory, and he was still defeated even when Zhao State itself was in civil strife!
Feng An lost 100,000 people and gave him a blow!
Under such circumstances, Zhao was also counterattacked by the country of Zhao, which was his biggest negligence!
So he received a letter from Wang Kang and led his troops back as soon as possible.
He wants to make up for it!
He pierced this hole and could no longer be filled by His Holiness.
The only good news now is that Wang Kang did not fool him, but came to Yue Kingdom in a real way.
This gave him the chance to clear Wang Kang!
But the situation doesn't seem to be good.
Departing from Yanzhou, in order to march quickly and reduce the baggage, grain and grass, the original journey was shortened by half!
But this is also a lot of effort!
The soldiers were quite tired!
Since he led his army to attack Zhao State, he has experienced great defeat, food and grass are scarce, and he is facing difficulties!
Then he forced a marching force!
In the past month, I haven't received any rest!
This is not just a matter of low morale, but the whole army began to resent and deserters appeared!
Even though he tried his best to control it, it was still difficult to stop it. This thing seemed to be contagious and spread throughout the army!
From Xuanhua City in Yanzhou to here, the number of deserters has reached more than 3,000, so more than 1,000 people have been executed by him...
This number is already quite large!
The army rested in Hulao Pass, and Chen Tang patrols the military camp.
Even when they arrived in the territory of Yue, the soldiers were still unable to lift themselves up and were in depressed.
As the commander of the three armies!
Chen Tang knew very well that in this case, it was quite dangerous and his combat effectiveness would be seriously weakened!
In fact, he also forced himself to kill Wang Kang just to have a breath!
He has been in the army for half his life, and of course he has also lost battles, and there are even more miserable things than this.
But I have never been so depressed.
Whenever he went to bed, he always recalled that scene in his mind!
On the city tower, Wang Kang set up a table to drink, there were women who played the piano and danced with them!
The city gate was wide open, and the 50,000 troops behind him were afraid to enter!
Shame, great humiliation!
This will become a shame for his life!
Wang Kang became his nightmare!
He vowed to divide his five horses into pieces and die!
Otherwise, it will be difficult to relieve the hatred in my heart!
Fortunately it's soon.
I have already reached Hulao Pass, and in more than half a day, I will reach Pengcheng...
"Master, please rest."
Han Jian came to him and interrupted his thoughts.
"It's time to have a good rest."
Chen Tang said, "Revitalize your spirit and get rid of the great enemy!"
"Master, I suggest we rest for a few more days in Hulao Pass, and we will go on a hurry all the way, we will be tired and our combat effectiveness will be reduced!"
“How long does it take to rest?”
Chen Tang asked back: "Three days? Or five days? And we had already cut off food three days ago. The food and grass in Hulao Pass were burned out. What's the point of resting here?"
"And if we arrive a little later, there will be more crises in Pengcheng!"
"Actually, it's not that pessimistic."
Han Jian said, "When we left, Pengcheng still had more than 4,000 people from the Peng family. As the defender of the city, this force is enough!"
"Maybe Wang Kang hasn't even broken Pengcheng now."
"I hope so."
Chen Tang felt a gloomy in his heart. Pengcheng also had the division of his Chen family, and the head of the family Chen Hai was his younger brother.
If Wang Kang conquered Pengcheng, the consequences... he would not dare to think about it...
"I have already sent a scout to inquire about the information, and I am coming back soon. Don't worry, and I think you..."
Han Jian still didn't say what he wanted to say.
As of Feng'an, the general began to become irrational, and all kinds of decisions were quite extreme.
As the commander of the three armies, no matter when, they should be calm and composed.
But now, Chen Shuai seemed to have lost his temper. He knew that the reason was probably because of the city guard of Feng'an City... Wang Kang!
"Master!"
At this moment, General Dong Xian hurriedly walked into the aisle: "The scout who went to inquire about the information has returned."
“What’s the situation?”
Dong Xian said with difficulty: "Wang Kang had already... captured Pengcheng, but strangely, he did not go straight in, but stopped in Pengcheng and established fortifications."
Chen Tang didn't listen to what happened later, but hurriedly asked: "He captured Pengcheng, have he found out about the situation of my Chen family?"
Dong Xian was hesitant and hesitated and didn't know how to speak.
"Say it!"
"Pengcheng has a full martial law, and the scouts did not go in."
Han Jian comforted: "Master, don't worry, maybe it's okay."
"but……"
"But what?"
Dong Xian still doesn't know what to say.
Chen Tang shouted: "Come here, call me the scout who went to Pengcheng for information."
"No need, I'll tell you."
Dong Xian said, "But you must keep it steady!"
To be continued...
