Chapter eight hundred and ninety-eight Meng Huo sobered up
Chapter 898 Meng Huo sobered up (second update)
It is the north of Langdian City, the edge of the vast forest.
A large number of Chu soldiers had gathered. Among them, the latter general Zhang Fei had also returned to his position. Since the Chu army was dispersed, the baggage had been abandoned.
However, after robbing many barbarians, there are no shortage of basic tents, machetes, etc.
Therefore, the soldiers are busy building the Chu camp at this moment.
In order to have a place to settle down after the Chu army led by Kou Feng arrived.
Although 30,000 troops have entered, Zhang Fei would not recklessly use 30,000 troops to attack the Langdian City, which is still occupied by 180,000 troops.
Only by joining forces with the Kou Feng can you have enough strength.
Everything was going in an orderly manner. However, Zhang Fei was also worried. Because there was no news about the general of the town army, Chen Da, although Chen Da was following a large number of elite soldiers. There was also a compass, which was more useful than any guide.
But Chen Da has never appeared, which is always a worrying thing.
The Chu camp is still under construction, but Zhang Fei's general tent has been erected. At this moment, Zhang Fei was resting in the tent. Suddenly, a guard came in and reported: "General, you found General Chen."
"This guy finally showed up." Zhang Fei was in a very good mood when he was worried about it. He laughed. Then, Zhang Fei stood up and said, "Take me there."
"No." The guard shouted, then walked out of the general's tent. Zhang Fei also raised his feet. Not long after, Zhang Fei and Chen Da met in the camp.
Chen Da's situation seemed not good, he limped and looked pale. Chen Da was once a subordinate of Zhang Fei, and later he was known for his bravery and good fighting skills. He was a very tough general.
Zhang Fei was shocked at this moment.
"What's going on? I'm injured?" Zhang Fei hurriedly stepped forward and asked.
"It's not that I'm injured. If I don't pay attention, I'll bit the poisonous snake. The wound is a little festered." Chen Da smiled bitterly when he heard this. No matter how the army was dispersed, there will still be a large number of personal guards around me. However, the horse stumbled, and Chen Da was bitten by the snake.
He barely saved his life, but because of no treatment drugs, the injury continued to worsen, which delayed the formation.
"I really have to thank God for your blessing." Zhang Fei said gladly. The poisonous snakes in the forest are generally extremely powerful, and only a few poisonous snakes can survive because of their low venom. Chen Da is still standing here, obviously he was bitten by a snake with low venom.
"I want to thank God." Chen Da smiled bitterly.
Chen Da was in danger, but Zhang Fei did not dare to neglect Chen Da's snake injury. He immediately invited the doctors in the army to watch and treat them.
With the gathering of the two vanguard generals, Zhang Fei, the rear general Chen Da, the army general. At this point, the vanguard army of Chu had successfully passed through the vast rainforest that the so-called sad Han people and entered the territory where the southerners lived for generations.
The most important step for Chu State to occupy this city.
These 30,000 Chu troops lost some of them when they fought with the Yang Feng barbarians, and some in the forest. However, there were many people falling to the ground.
They entered this territory together, so naturally they could not hide it from Meng Huo's eyes and ears.
After some people found out about this news, they immediately rushed back to Langdian City. However, at this moment, important figures including Meng Huo, Meng You, Yang Feng, Mu Lu, Wu Tugu and other barbarians successfully blocked the Chu army and wiped out 30,000 Chu troops, and were drunk.
Meng Huo had the best alcohol content, so although he was drunk, he still remained awake. At this moment, he watched Meng You, Yang Feng, Mu Lu, Wu Tugu and others get drunk and collapse in their seats.
Meng Huo felt a sense of fulfillment in his heart.
Although Meng Huo has always threatened to block the Chu army and defeat the Chu army. However, when he was in Diancheng, the alliance with Yongkai was broken, which was a great blow to Meng Huo.
Meng Huo has always had some disconfidence deep in his heart.
But now it is different, everything is different. The Chu army's 120,000 troops went south, of which 40,000 were men under Mengda's troops stationed in Yuyuan City, and only 80,000 continued to fight south.
Thirty thousand people were killed. Only fifty thousand were left, and he still had an army of eighteen thousand.
The Chu army is not scary anymore. Even if they have crossbows and Chu swords that are powerful to the southeast, they are not scary anymore.
"This may be the opportunity when Chu turned from prosperity to decline, and my southerners went from decline to prosperity. Everything will be fine." At this moment, Meng Huo was already half drunk, but he still couldn't help but want to drink. It was really wonderful.
Meng Huo couldn't help but be intoxicated. While talking softly, Meng Huo also poured himself a glass of wine and drank it with his head. It was a strong wine that most men could hardly drink. At this moment, Meng Huo raised his head to drink it, but it only added a little warmth and a little drunkenness.
Not only did it not make him uncomfortable, it made him feel as if he had entered a fairyland, which felt great.
"Come, send all these guys down. Everyone finds a beautiful woman for them to hug. There is a saying among the Han people: Think about it with warmth and warmth. Today is the time to indulge." Then, Meng Huo glanced at the four people who were as limp as mud and said with a smile.
"No." An guard outside the door responded to No, and fought Meng You and four others out one by one.
Soon, Meng Huo was the only one left in the hall. After drinking a few more glasses of wine, Meng Huo also stood up staggeringly and planned to go down and rest.
"King, the spy found a Chu army about 80 miles north of the city, with a number of between 20,000 and 30,000." But at this moment, a guard always hurried in and reported.
"How is this possible?"
Meng Huo's drunkenness suddenly disappeared from his mind, and his red cheeks suddenly turned blue and white, and he shouted in dismay.
Since obtaining the information from Yang Feng and Meng You, Meng Huo has always believed that the 30,000 Chu troops were no longer in the forest. Because Meng Huo did not believe that the Chu troops, which were scattered into three or five people, could successfully walk out of such a complex forest. Just distinguishing the direction can make these people die.
Therefore, a celebration banquet was held and he talked loudly. Therefore, his confidence was high and he believed that blocking the Chu army was already nailed to the iron plate.
But now, someone suddenly told him that the 30,000 Chu troops, who had been wiped out in the plan, had appeared again, and a total of 20,000 to 30,000 people appeared alive in the north of the city.
In other words, Yang Feng's 30,000 troops were sacrificed in vain, and the price paid by the Chu army may be only a few thousand, or even smaller. It is possible for hundreds of people.
What does this mean? This means that Meng Huo was not only happy, but also faced a huge test. Because he blindly sent troops to block the attack, he lost 30,000 troops, a total of 30,000 troops.
At present, his army has 180,000 troops, while the Chu army still has 70,000 to 80,000. The situation of the enemy being strong and we being weak has further expanded.
And he was still celebrating just now. Did he celebrate the victory of the Chu army? Meng Huo thought it was very ridiculous.
"Hahahaha." Meng Huo raised his head and laughed, tears of laughter came out. But Meng Huo's eyes were filled with sadness.
At this moment, why can the Chu army be able to successfully pass through the murderous forest while dispersed to the squad? Could this Chu army be a southerner wearing the cloak of the Chu army?
Waiting for these things is meaningless. The most important thing is that now that 20,000 to 30,000 Chu troops have arrived, the troops in the rear will definitely open up further roads to reach the city of Dalangdian.
A total of 80,000 troops.
The Chu army was almost able to fight a long war with them by relying on the food arranged in Yuyuan City and Meng Da's escort on the food.
Even if it is not victorious in the short term, it can still recruit soldiers from the Chu state, Jingchu, even Wuyue, or recently in Yizhou for a long time.
Compete with the entire Chu State’s national strength?
It's really a joke. But Meng Huo didn't find it funny at all.
Originally expected that the huge forest that the Chu army could never break through was broken through. They might be trapped in the quagmire of competing with Chu's state of national strength.
They will soon destroy the country, or even the clan.
Faced with such a situation, can Meng Huo really laugh out loud? The answer is obviously impossible. Now Meng Huo's heart can be said to be dark.
However, even if you live in difficulties, a person still has to live. Even if the situation is dangerous, as the barbarian king in the area, Meng Huo must try to turn the tide.
"The Han people said that only in a real desperate situation, turning the tide and eliminating seemingly powerful enemies can we truly achieve the joy of victory. Perhaps, this time it was God's chance to give me." Meng Huo thought so. Perhaps it would be no exaggeration to call it forced himself to think so.
Then, Meng Huo took a deep breath and ordered: "Order, the entire city's army will begin to mobilize. Prepare to protect the city. Even the army of Mulu and Wutugu are the same."
Now, Mulu and Wutugu were drunk by Meng Huo himself. There was no way to order. Now is the time for life and death, and Meng Huo can only order beyond his authority.
"No." The guard who came to report said a word and rushed out of the door immediately.
Just now, Meng Huo was drinking and celebrating the achievements with Mulu, Yang Feng and others. The atmosphere was still lazy, but now, with the sudden tension in the situation.
Gone are the atmosphere.
With Meng Huo's order, the entire barbarians and barbarian army in the city of Dalangdian began to move in a hurry, with everyone's faces showing a serious look and they were very quick.
Meng Huo himself sat in the hall for a while.
After a moment, Meng Huo's drunkenness and lazy breath slowly gathered together. Simply put, he sobered up.
