Dugu Mo couldn't imagine how Jindu, which was well-arranged when he was leaving, would be taken down overnight. It's just that five hours after the defeat, the handsome guy on the tower has already announced that the capital of Jin has returned to the embrace of the people of Jin.
It was Zong Zhilian who was posing with a shy face.
After posing for a moment, he quickly returned to his calm young man's appearance. With a move of his hand, the bow and crossbow on the top of the city headed down, and a burst of arrows shot out.
At this moment, Old Leopard was about to tell Dugu Mo to storm the city, but once the crossbow was fired, it was too late to waste any time.
Jindu's city defense bows and crossbows are not common items, even Dugu Mo and others have to be careful.
The Wu** team hastily withdrew 300 paces away, but they ran into Qi** who was chasing after Wu Zhe.
He once had the idea of leading the army to fight.
But after seeing the female general Xiao who was leading the Qi army, and the three hundred Xuanwu soldiers around him, Dugu Mo couldn't make this decision.
Dugu Mo never thought that there would be people who would feel this way to him.
This sense of powerlessness was only given to him by his father, King Xuanwu, the monarch of Wu Kingdom.
Not to mention him, looking at the female general Xiao who was waving a feather fan and dressed strangely in a crane cloak in the distance, everyone in Wu Kingdom felt as if there was an unbreakable mountain pressing there.
If you can return to the capital of Jin in time and defend the city, there will be a difference in the outcome of the battle.
But now that the capital of Jin has been lost, and they are fighting in such a different place within the territory of Jin, the defeated army of Wu State has lost their minds!
"General Qiu, you are the first to lead the charge, and we will switch to the southeast!" Dugu Mo gritted his teeth, and decided to take 20,000 people back to Wu Kingdom.
Even if only 10,000 people can go back, it is better than annihilation of the entire army.
From this, it can be seen that Dugu Mo is stronger than Prince Xuan.
He belongs to the type who can sever his wrists. He would rather endure a painful loss than save his capital in order to make a comeback. But Prince Xuan was more foresight. And he will bet on every chance he has to gamble his life.
Wu Zhe led the army to chase after him.
Dugu Mo kept dispatching a thousand-man army to stop the pursuers, delaying time for his army. Fortunately, Wu Zhe didn't seem to pursue with all his troops, only about ten thousand people kept chasing Dugu Mo away.
Even if Dugu Mo has more troops than Wu Zhe's chasing troops, the defeat of the army is imminent. It's hard to fight back.
sometimes. The pursuers led by Wu Zhe seemed to be drifting away.
Dugu Mo saw that the soldiers were extremely hungry and thirsty, so he found a place by the river. Give an order: "Burn the pot and cook."
But after such a delay, Wu Zhe's pursuers caught up again.
It came at a very good time, just when the meals of the Wu** team were just cooked.
In fact, Wu Zhe was in the distance, watching the time when Dugu Mo was cooking smoke. Killed here on purpose.
Dugu Mo hurriedly mobilized another army to feed the pursuers, blocking Wu Zhe's power, and the others dropped their prepared meals and ran away, which ensured that the army was not delayed and fell into a tight siege.
"Let's have dinner!" Wu Zhe laughed and arranged for the soldiers to eat.
Of course, she judged others by herself, and deliberately ate some of each rice pot randomly to ensure that it was not poisoned.
Although Dugu Mo was vicious. But where does Wu Zhe have so many ghosts? Naturally, he never thought of poisoning him in this regard.
Of course, it is also to blame for the backwardness of this world's information transmission. If Dugu Mo knew about "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", he might not suffer from boredom.
The soldiers led by Wu Zhe were full of water and food, and began to chase the defeated army of Wu State again. And deliberately unhurried. Keep the distance so that all samurai warriors will not feel that they are at a dead end, so that they will not be desperately resisted by the enemy.
Dugu Mo fled all the way, seeing Wu Zhe's oppression, he gritted his teeth with hatred.
But if the defeated army is successful, it will be difficult to recover.
Even when Bao Lao endured the pain of his finger and blocked Wu Zhe's Xuanwu Army, he still couldn't gain the slightest advantage. Wu Zhe only brought Granny Jin to pursue him, and he was also considered a half-moon saint, so he didn't fear him at all.
Under the joint attack of the two of them, Old Leopard was almost hit hard again. But Dugu Mo needs to sit in the middle army to prevent the defeated army from collapsing, and the result is always in a mess.
Even if he made a sudden move, the three hundred Xuanwu soldiers led by Wu Zhe would immediately step forward to bully his central army, making him tied up for fear of losing any more generals.
The Xuanwu soldiers in the Xuanwu command area of Sanlidi are like three hundred clones of monkeys that Wu Zhe pulled out of his vellus hair. Even if Wu Zhe fights with all his strength, they still have the ability to fight independently. The difference is that it can't achieve the precise effect of sixty knife flowers.
Fortunately, Wu Zhe only chased him all night. It was not until dawn on the second day that the troops were withdrawn.
After cautiously fleeing for a few more hours, after confirming that the terrifying Xiao Ruoyao hadn't come back, the Wu soldiers burst into tears.
Dugu Mo arranged for the team to rest and count the number of people.
Before attacking the Wu Kingdom's camp, there were about 25,000 troops, but now there are less than 8,000 troops left. The only good thing is that there are only 800 Xuanwu soldiers left, and they are the only ones that are almost intact.
Everyone was exhausted, and they were slowly defeated and retreated to Wuguo.
They did not dare to approach the border of Qi State, and kept in the territory of Jin State all the way south.
The wall fell and everyone pushed, and on the way to flee to Wu Kingdom, the army of Bo Guanghou who heard the news also chased and killed Dugu Mo for a while. Even some county guards and small princes came to bully the defeated Wu army.
"Too much deception! Too much deception!" Old Leopard's teeth were itching: "Those defeated generals came here to take advantage of the fire!"
A county guard didn't know how deep he was, and he rushed to the vicinity of General Qiu's Xuanwu Corps with thousands of soldiers. General Qiu was also furious, and directly commanded the Xuanwu Corps to wipe out the small army of the county guards who were dying.
It's a pity that the Xuanwu soldiers of the Wu Kingdom were exhausted all the way after retreating, which greatly affected their strength. There were more than two hundred Xuanwu soldiers lost in this battle, which made General Qiu gritted her teeth in distress.
Fortunately, one day later, with the assistance of two moon-level saints and a small group of masters sent by Xuanwu King of Wu Kingdom, Dugu Mo was able to bring most of the defeated troops to break through the defense line of Jin Kingdom's southern border and return to Wu Kingdom.
Before Dugu Mo could even catch his breath after returning to the territory of Wu Kingdom, a messenger from his subordinate sent an arrow book.
This is Wu Zhe sent people to follow the defeated army from a distance, watching them shoot when they approached the border.
"I'm afraid it's not a good word, and you need to be careful that the arrow book is poisonous!" Old Leopard reminded suddenly.
"That's right!" General Qiu suggested, "Let the messenger read it."
The orderly opened the letter tremblingly.
Everyone stared round their eyes and pricked up their ears to listen.
The messenger was afraid of being poisoned, and afraid of being implicated by the curse words in the arrow book, so he tried his best to read in a trembling voice: "[Zong Zhilian just occupied the top of the city.]"
"Zong Zhilian just occupied the top of the city?" Bao Lao and others were puzzled.
Dugu Mo was stunned for a moment, then spurted out a mouthful of blood in an instant.
It turned out that the Qi army did not completely capture Jindu at that time!
