Chapter 458： Just ask you, is this news exciting?

"Find a dead end?"

Lu Bu's lieutenant was a little confused, and asked, "General, what do you mean by this?"

"Zhao Mao is now here with Chen Bing, and he is slow to attack. It is nothing more than to make his army arrive here. The troops on the Shangguan Mountain are empty, attracting your majesty to lead the army to attack. At that time, he will cooperate with the army of Tan Wenbo in Mingxi City. Your Majesty’s army has paid a heavy price!"

Lu Bu sneered and said: "His idea is good. It just happens to be a part of obstructing Guo Jia's plan. It is a pity that if Tan Wenbo has 1.5 million in Mingxi City's army, it will indeed make your Majesty feel it. crisis."

"Now Tan Wenbo has divided hundreds of thousands to occupy other cities in Chi County. The army in Mingxi City is less than a million. If you don’t leave Mingxi City, you may still have a chance. As long as they leave Mingxi City, Ran Min and Huo Qubing will subordinate One hundred and fifty thousand cavalry can make him pay a heavy price."

"The general, what do we do now?" The lieutenant looked worried and said: "We only have more than 20,000 cavalry left under our hands. If the enemy is attacking the city, it will be difficult to defend."

"Don't worry, the enemy will withdraw their troops obediently!" Lu Bu said with a light smile.

"This……"

The lieutenant looked at Lu Bu without understanding, knowing exactly what Lu Bu meant.

Lu Bu just smiled faintly, and did not answer.

...

Inside Zhao Mao’s military camp, he was sitting in the military tent with his generals at this time, chatting and laughing.

"General, as long as Lu Feng dared to send troops at Hukou Pass, he will be dead. When the overall situation is determined, we can take advantage of Hukou Pass and advance to other places in Ziyang 13th County." A general smiled.

"That's right, the enemy will definitely not expect the general to arrange this way. They will definitely march in the first time! At that time, we will win."

"well said!"

Zhao Mao was also full of smiles. He was very satisfied with his strategy this time. He smiled and said: "We just need to wait here. As long as Lu Feng's army on the Shangguanshan side starts to attack Shangguanshan, we must be in the first place. When attacking Linghongcheng within time, there must be no more hesitation!"

"The final commander!" said his generals in unison.

"it is good!"

Nodded, Zhao Mao said: "This matter depends on the monarchs. As long as we win the 13th county of Ziyang, it will be the great hero of the kingdom and the great sect. At that time, I will personally do it for you..."

"Report, General, Xiyicheng urgent letter."

Before Zhao Mao had finished speaking, a soldier hurried in from outside the door.

"Xiyi City?"

Zhao Mao frowned slightly and said, "Xiyi City is at the rear, what can I do? Pass it to me to see."

The soldier hurriedly handed the letter to Zhao Mao.

When Zhao Mao saw the content of the letter, his face changed drastically, and he said in shock: "How is this possible!"

"General, what happened?"

All the generals in the military account looked at Zhao Mao suspiciously, wondering why the general, who was still talking and laughing just now, looked panicked now.

"West... Xiyi City was captured by the enemy!" Zhao Mao muttered stupidly.

In his words, he couldn't believe it, and was shocked.

The city of Xiyi, a heavy land of food and grass behind the army, was actually captured by the enemy?

The Jinshui Kingdom’s intelligence system was good, but the hundred thousand troops outside Xiyi City were the Bailan Kingdom’s troops, and it was more than a little bit slower than Jin Yiwei to pass news.

The news of Jin Yiwei yesterday, they only delivered to Zhao Mao today.

"What? Xiyi City was captured?"

"how can that be!"

"Xiyi City is the rear of our army. Except for Guhe City and Chihe City, there is no road from Chi County to Xiyi City. How could it be possible for an enemy to occupy our rear?"

"Yes, this is absolutely impossible!"

"Even if the enemy army walks along the path of the dead soul, the Bailan Kingdom arranges a hundred thousand troops to guard there, and the enemy army can't fly even if it has wings on, how could Xiyi City be captured?"

The generals under Zhao Mao said one by one.

Their words are different, but one thing is the same.

They all began to panic, uneasy, worried, and even fearful.

Xiyi City is not only the rear of their army, but also the only way for their army to withdraw to the Bailan Kingdom.

In addition, there is no road from Chi County to Bailan Kingdom.

The fall of Xiyi City meant that they had no future.

Zhao Mao was also very panicked. As the great general of the Jinshui Kingdom in this battle, his insight into the overall situation was not weak, and he understood very well what the fall of Xiyi City meant for their army.

and……

Zhao Mao also thought of a very terrible possibility.

Xiyi City is at the rear of the battlefield, and Lu Feng arranged for people to go there. The purpose is definitely not only to want a city, but also to seal the only way for his army to retreat.

The most likely thing is that Lu Feng wanted to block all the army of the Golden Water Kingdom and Bailan Kingdom under his command in Chi County, or even kill them completely.

Because the city of Xiyi was occupied, he had no way out, and there was no food and grass behind him, and he could not retreat at all.

Once it was as he thought, Zhao Mao shuddered after thinking about the consequences.

"call!"

With a deep exhalation, Zhao Mao said solemnly: "This letter is the handwriting of the master of the Bailan Kingdom outside Xiyi City. There can be no mistake, Xiyi City is lost."

"This……"

"how can that be!"

A general looked at Zhao Mao and said: "General, from Chi County, no, even the entire 13th county of Ziyang, the only places bordering the Bailan Kingdom are Guhecheng and Xiyicheng. Now the road has been completely sealed by us. Death, how can the enemy army be able to occupy Xiyi City?"

"How did their army soldiers pass by? This is simply an impossible thing!"

"Yes, General, is there really nothing wrong with this news?"

"This……"

Hearing what the general under his hand said, Zhao Mao's expression was also a bit hesitant.

Like these generals' thoughts, Zhao Mao knew very well that this possibility was really too small.

Chi County is now occupied by them across the board, the roads are blocked, and a hundred thousand troops are stationed at the exit of the Soulless Trail. How could someone run to Xiyi City and occupy Xiyi City.

In addition, the hundred thousand troops of the Bailan Kingdom outside the laundry city did not dare to **** it back, and sent troops to ask for help. The number of soldiers who occupied Xiyi City was at least 50,000.

"Report, General, the intelligence personnel of the kingdom are in a hurry."

At this time, another soldier ran in.

Zhao Mao had a bad feeling in his heart and hurried over to take the letter over. When he saw the content on it, he smiled bitterly and said: "The news is correct. Our intelligence personnel also got the exact news. Xiyi City was lost. !"

"This……"

Look at me, I see you, the generals under Zhao Mao's command, his expression is no longer the same little fear as before, but becomes a complete fear.
