Chapter 82 It is hard to leave

In a remote corner outside Jiujiang City, a group of people were watching the Qin army launch a fierce attack on Jiujiang. One of them, who looked smart and capable, said to the others: "Now seems to be the best time for us to take the prince away from here.

." He is Peng Hong who came from Shangjun. He brought more than a hundred soldiers with extraordinary skills this time. He originally wanted to help Fusu cause trouble in Chu, but what he didn't expect when he came here was...

Qin's attack.

"But now that the city is completely surrounded by the Qin people, how can we go in and rescue the prince?" asked a man with a broad face and a loyal look. This man's surname is Guo and his given name is Quanzhong. Don't look at him as an honest man.

In fact, he is a man of far-reaching wisdom, but he has always existed only as a soldier, so he is not noticeable. But when talents exist, all they need is an opportunity, and Peng Hong is his opportunity.

"I have to ask you, Lao Guo." A lean man joked on the side. His name is Meng Gong, he is the younger brother of Meng Kong who died outside Xianyang City to help Su, and he is also an agile man.

"Then I want you to go into the city and let you get in touch with the prince first and then come up with a complete solution." Guo Quanzhong glared at him angrily.

Peng Hong said with a smile: "Well, I am still the best at climbing up and down here, so I will find a way to go into the city and inform the prince. Besides, I have stayed in Jiujiang City for a while, and I know where the prince lives.

Just let me go in."

"But you are our leader, what if you go in and get in with the people outside?" Guo Quanzhong hesitated, "I think we should let Xiao Meng go in, his skills are not much weaker than yours."

"Of course the people outside are under your full command, Lao Guo." Peng Hong said confidently: "Besides, Xiao Meng may not gain the prince's trust if he and the prince have never met. Well, after dark, I will find a way to touch him.

Go into town."

Seeing that Peng Hong had made up his mind, Guo Quanzhong no longer insisted, and everyone retreated for more than ten miles to ensure that they would not be discovered by the Qin people.

It was late autumn, and there was a chill after the sky darkened. However, Guo Quanzhong and others did not light a bonfire in order not to attract the attention of the Qin people. Everyone felt even colder in the wild. Fortunately, this place was in the south. If they were in Shangjun and other places,

He couldn't bear it no matter what. Meng Gong couldn't sleep and crawled to Guo Quanzhong and said: "Old Guo, how confident are we this time?"

Guo Quanzhong glanced at him angrily: "You didn't take a good rest but you came to ask me this question. Don't worry, as long as Brother Peng and the prince get in touch, we will be more than 80% sure to rescue the prince."

"I still can't let go. Don't forget that there are 50,000 people outside the city. We are only over a hundred people, and there may be Qin troops coming to support us soon." Meng Gong still said uneasily.

"Although there are 50,000 troops outside, they are not here to besiege the city but to break in. When the city is broken, there will be a loophole in their siege. More than a hundred of us can rescue the prince." After saying this.

Guo Quanzhong turned over and went to sleep. Meng Gong saw that the other party was not going to explain in detail to him, so he smiled and went back to sleep.

At this time, Fusu in Jiujiang City was still awake. He was discussing tomorrow's war with Han Xin. "I didn't expect that the Qin people were really aggressive this time. They not only cut off our connection with several other cities, but also cut off our retreat."

They also broke it off." Fusu said to himself.

"Yes, after these days of duel, I also feel that the confidence of the soldiers defending the city has been shaken. And I think other Qin troops are coming soon, and I am afraid that the city will not be able to defend it by then.

"Han Xin said worriedly.

"I hope General Xiang Liang's reinforcements will arrive soon." Fusu said, regretting a little, knowing that he would not rush to Jiujiang County. If he died defending the city for the Chu people and died under the sword of the Qin people, I'm afraid he would be a ghost.

He would not be convinced. "Knowing this, I might as well leave the team and go back to Shangjun when I was rushing here from Kuaiji." Thinking of this, Fusu felt a little ashamed. After all, he also had many friends in this city. He felt that he was getting more and more

He is becoming more and more like a politician. Everything is based on his own interests. If he were before, he would not regret his decision.

"How many arrows, wood and rocks do we still have in the city?" Fusu asked Han Xindao, expelling this thought.

Han Xin didn't notice that Fusu had any regrets, so he made a mental calculation and said, "We should be able to hold on for another two days. If reinforcements don't come, we will have to use our bodies to resist Qin's attack."

"Okay, you go back and rest first, there will be another battle tomorrow?" Fusu said when he saw that Han Xin was very tired.

Han Xin yawned, knowing that he had not had a good sleep for six or seven days, so he did not refuse, got up and left. Fusu sent Han Xin away, and when he returned to the room, he saw someone waiting for him.

When Peng Hong saw him, Fusu smiled bitterly and said, "I originally wanted you to bring people to bring peace to the Chu land, but I didn't expect that there would be no peace if you don't come."

Peng Hong saluted and said: "Prince, I am here this time to rescue you from Jiujiang City."

Fusu nodded and said: "This is indeed a good time to leave here, and it is also the best time for us to launch an attack on the Qin people. But how do I get out of the Qin army's siege? I don't have your skills."

"I want the prince to go to a place where it is easier to get out of the city when the city is broken, and then we will help you get out of the city."

"This is a good try. This city can probably be defended for two or three days. I will take the opportunity to find a good place to leave the city."

"Then come back in two days." Peng Hong said and left. He had to be protected by the night to leave Jiujiang City smoothly without being discovered by the soldiers of Qin and Chu.

Fusu suddenly thought that if he left like this, Han Xin, whom he wanted to help, and Yu Ziyan, whom he admired, would die here, but reason also told him that it was best for him to leave here and fight back against Hu Hai and Zhao Gao.

Time is not the time to act on impulse. He took a deep breath and already made a decision in his heart.

Early the next morning, Fusu searched Jiujiang City carefully in the name of inspecting various places in the city to see if they could be easily exploited by foreign enemies, and finally found an easy place to get out in the northwest corner. He was determined to repay Yu Fulong.

I decided to help him guard him a few more times in the last few days.

At this time, Zhao Changke outside the city was waiting for the arrival of the day shift army. After the last defeat by Meng Tian in Beidi County, Zhao Changke had restrained himself a lot and no longer regarded the world's heroes as nothing, but he still could not imagine this.

The soldiers guarding Jiujiang were so tenacious. They were able to hold on despite being attacked by our own army for many days. It really hurt his self-esteem. Moreover, he also knew that the day shift had quickly taken down Surabaya.

County, a comparison of the two shows his incompetence.

"Report, someone from our army braved a target and climbed to the top of the city!" Just as Zhao Changke was sighing in the main tent, a soldier suddenly delivered the good news to him. "Okay!" He was overjoyed and hurriedly assembled the can from the tent.

He ran out and went straight to the front line.

Sure enough, Zhao Changke saw more than two hundred Qin soldiers attacking up the ladder and fighting the Chu army on the top of the city. "Quick, continue to send troops to support. This time I will take down this section of the city wall." Zhao Changke said excitedly

.

But his excitement lasted only for a moment. Just when the Qin soldiers fought desperately to climb up the city wall, thinking that this section had been occupied by them, a gong sounded from inside. There were actually thousands of Chu troops ambushing inside the city wall, waiting for them.

After climbing inside, they started to surround and kill the Qin soldiers. After a while, more than two hundred corpses were thrown down on the city. At this time, the Qin soldiers who wanted to support them had not yet gone up.

"Why? Why do they treat it as a loss when they clearly have defenders?" Zhao Changke said angrily when he saw that the victory he had obtained turned into defeat.

"In my opinion, the defenders at the top of the city were running out of arrowheads, so they thought of luring our army in and then destroying our army's morale without losing these items." A deputy general analyzed.

"Yes, that must be the case." Zhao Changke pulled out his sword and said loudly, "The Chu people's weapons for defending the city have been exhausted. It's time for us to capture this city. Come on!"

The Qin soldiers also saw that the Chu people's defense strength was insufficient. After hearing the general's order, they rushed forward regardless of their own safety. It seemed that as long as they rushed forward, Jiujiang City would belong to them.

But reality once again struck the Qin Army and Zhao Changke mercilessly. Just when the Qin Army rushed to the city and had not had time to re-erect the fallen ladder to the city, a rain of arrows mixed with large and small stones fell from the sky, giving Qin a

The people were given a wake-up call. For a time, the city was full of casualties, and those who originally wanted to go to the city to perform meritorious services were turned into corpses, which dealt a great blow to the morale of the Qin army. For a time, the Qin army had to stop the attack.

And Jiujiang City survived another disaster.

On the top of the city, all the soldiers looked at Fusu with admiration. They did not expect that one of his strategies would cause the Qin army to suffer heavy losses. Han Xin repeatedly praised: "Zhou Changshi is really like a god in using troops. He actually knows how to counteract a weak point, and give up the enemy at once."

Qin soldiers suffered two heavy losses."

Fusu smiled lightly and said: "But this strategy can only be used once. The Qin army will not be fooled again. And there are indeed not many arrow stones in our city."

"But at least today the Qin soldiers are unlikely to attack again. As long as we defend for one more day, General Xiang's reinforcements will be closer to us. Maybe he will arrive with his army tomorrow." Yu Fulong was also fully armed at this time.

Standing at the top of the city.

"Look, how come a large number of troops suddenly appeared in the deep Qin army?" a soldier in charge of the lookout suddenly shouted.

Everyone hurriedly looked at it, but saw Qin and Bai embroidered on the flags. It was the reinforcements of the Qin army that had arrived. Everyone was originally happy that they could repel the enemy, but now their colors suddenly changed. The enemy's reinforcements were actually worse than
