"Report..."

"Report to the Grand Sima, the combined forces of Wei and South Korea are building a dam in the northwest of Yan City."

"What!"

The scout made an anxious report, which immediately startled the Chu army's general, Grand Sima Qu Boyong, who was lying on the map, and made the atmosphere in the room immediately tense.

Just as Qu Boyong's eyes kept wandering over the map in front of him, Yan Ping, who was born in Yancheng, stood up immediately in the room.

"Da Sima, the terrain of Yan City is high in the northwest and low in the southeast, and there is a Yan River flowing nearby."

"As the gateway to the capital of Ying, the walls of Yan City are strong and difficult for the coalition forces to conquer in a short period of time, so they had to stop under Yan City."

"It has been raining continuously in recent days, and the Yan River has surged. The coalition forces are building dams in the northwest, with the clear intention of using water as a weapon to conquer our fortified city."

As a local general, Yan Ping was undoubtedly familiar with Yan City, and he could see the intentions of the Wei and Han coalition forces at a glance.

And his words made the commander-in-chief Qu Boyong, who was sitting behind the table, immediately feel the urgency of the situation.

"Here comes someone."

"The end will be here."

Qu Boyong gave an order, and the two Chu army generals sitting below immediately stood up and bowed to accept the order.

"Send elite soldiers out of the city quickly and be sure to destroy the coalition's dam before it is completed."

"This matter is related to the safety of Yan City and cannot be delayed."

Qu Boyong's order was urgent and severe, and the two generals below did not dare to be negligent in the slightest, and even bowed down to accept the order.

"The general will obey his orders."

His eyes were fixed on the two people who accepted the order. When their figures completely disappeared from sight, the thoughts in Qu Boyong's eyes were still flowing rapidly.

Qu Boyong had no idea whether the Chu army could destroy the dam built by the coalition forces.

Over the past few days, the reason why the Chu army has been able to withstand the combined forces of Wei and Han and contain them to the north of Yan City has mainly relied on the solid defense line of Yan City.

If the two sides really open up for a field battle, Qu Boyong knows that his side will never be a match for the Wei army that has established itself as the strongest army in the world through battle after battle.

Not to mention that behind these Wei troops, the Korean troops holding strong bows and crossbows were also very capable troops.

Once our side really loses the support of Yancheng, failure will only be a matter of time.

Today, Qu Boyong only hopes that a miracle will happen and that the soldiers sent out can really complete the task of destroying the dam.

But today Shi Xiangzhu's strategy for attacking the city is right in front of him. Wouldn't the Wei and Han coalition forces go all out?

The right hand on the table was tightly clenched into a fist. As the commander-in-chief, Qu Boyong slowly closed his eyes.

…

"kill……"

On the high slopes northwest of Yan City, loud shouts of killing came from the southeast, and along with them appeared a famous Chu soldier holding a sharp weapon.

"Crossbowmen prepare!"

Standing on the high slope, looking at the earth-colored tide coming towards us like a tide below, the Wei general in charge of guarding the dam slowly issued an order.

Flags were flying among the military formations. After receiving the order, a famous crossbowman came to the front of the military formation, and a sharp arrow locked the opponent who was slowly approaching in the mud.

"put."

On the battlefield, this command sounded extremely clear, and the undulating sound of bow strings and crossbow strings rang out among the military formations.

Countless feather arrows and crossbow bolts were quickly shot out, flying into the turbulent tide ahead, towards the approaching Chu soldiers.

"Ahhhh..."

Painful wails kept ringing in the Chu army's ranks. Often the Chu soldier was still advancing upwards one moment, and the next moment he was attacked by arrows and fell on the road leading to the coalition dam.

above.

However, even though the comrades beside them fell one after another, those Chu soldiers who survived the allied crossbow attack still chose to charge forward.

In fact, most of them don't understand what today's battle is about, but they all know one thing clearly after being in battle for a long time.

If they choose to retreat, they will all become the prey of the coalition's crossbowmen; only by moving forward bravely can they have a glimmer of hope.

"Rush..."

Screams rang out in the Chu army's formation. Under the attack of the coalition's crossbows, most of the Chu army's soldiers, who were immediately missing, finally arrived in front of the Wei army's formation.

At this moment, their eyes were already red and they couldn't wait to insert the sharp blades in their hands into the bodies of the soldiers wearing red and green military uniforms on the opposite side.

It's a pity that what greets these soldiers' sharp swords is not the flesh and blood bodies of the soldiers of the Wei and Han alliances, but the strong oars and sets of armor that are defensive to the teeth.

While the Chu army's finally inspired offensive was held back by the Wei army at the front of the coalition, the soldiers in the middle and rear of the coalition's formation were also quickly outflanking the opponent's flanks.

Gradually, the original attackers became the defenders, and the military formations of the Wei and Han coalition formed two strong and powerful arms, which tightly clamped the Chu army's offensive.

The balance of the war has tilted towards the victorious side.

…

The clenched fists on the table gradually loosened, and as the commander-in-chief, Qu Boyong slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the two men with broken armor below, full solemnity appeared in Qu Boyong's eyes.

"If the war is not going well, please ask Da Sima to punish you."

A touch of powerlessness appeared in Qu Boyong's eyes. His previous worries were not unreasonable. The Wei army in the field battle was not comparable to the Chu army.

"This battle was not something you waited for. Go down and rest."

"Thank you, Da Sima."

Slowly watching the two people disappear from sight, knowing that it was impossible for his side to stop the coalition's actions, a look of determination suddenly appeared in Qu Boyong's eyes.

Once the Yan River rolls down, Yan City will fall into the hands of the Wei army sooner or later. In this case...

"Here comes someone."

"The end will be here."

Looking at the two generals standing in front of him, Qu Boyong ordered in a deep voice: "Order the soldiers of all departments to quickly assemble and obey orders and be ready to evacuate Yancheng at any time."

"Da Sima, we can't withdraw..."

Before Qu Boyong could finish his words, one of the generals shouted loudly: "Da Sima, Yancheng is the gateway to Yingdu. Once our army withdraws, Yingdu will immediately be under the attack of the coalition forces."

"At that time, not only the capital of Ying, but also our country of Chu will be in danger!"

What this general said made Qu Boyong unclear, but even if they did not retreat, what could the Chu army do to resist the rolling Yan River?

Rather than letting all the troops under his command be surrounded by floods and become prisoners of the coalition forces, it is better to withdraw as soon as possible while the dam is not completely built.

"I have made up my mind, and there is no need for the generals to persuade me."

While speaking, Qu Boyong looked at the local general Yan Ping who was sitting beside him.

"General Yan Ping, when the army is gathering, the defense force will inevitably be weak. The Yancheng soldiers under your command must strictly guard the defense and make sure not to allow the coalition forces outside the city to take advantage of it."

"The general will obey his orders."

Yan Ping accepted Qu Boyong's order on the surface, but what Qu Boyong didn't notice was that a somewhat complicated look appeared in his eyes.
Chapter completed!
