King Xiang Bi of Wu was very anxious and forced the generals to lead the Wu army under Wanling City to attack the city day and night.

He has to be anxious!

The King of Chu was defeated in one battle and retreated back to Jiangbei. It would take at least half a year or even longer just to cultivate vitality.

The support army he had high hopes for would not be able to come to support him within several months.

When the other princes saw that the Chu army was defeated by 100,000, they were afraid that they would not dare to cross the river easily and come to the Jiangnan area.

Although he had an army of 250,000, he fought alone, and it was almost impossible for reinforcements to appear again.

The Jinling Imperial Capital will definitely not be able to attack it for a while.

He needs to take Wanling City as soon as possible, build a strong stronghold on the periphery of Wu Kingdom, and gain enough strategic defensive space.

Go north from Wanling County, one hundred miles away from Danyang County, and two hundred miles away from Jinling imperial capital.

Danyang County is blocked between Wanling County and Jinling Imperial Capital.

If you don’t take down Danyang County, you will definitely not be able to attack Jinling City.

He had to take down Wanling County City in order to resist the attack of 50,000 elite troops from Xiaohunhou and Li Yu.

However, what surprised King Xiang Bi of Wu was a little surprised. After Xiaohunhou and Li Yu defeated the Chu army, they brought 50,000 imperial troops back to Danyang County to station, and there was no movement.

It is estimated that Xiao Hunhou also felt that his mere 50,000 troops were too weak, and he was afraid of the 250,000 troops of the Wu army, which was too powerful.

Once the battle is fought in the field, Xiaohunhou may not be able to hold on with his 50,000 troops.

Since Xiao Hunhou hid in Danyang County and refused to come out.

That's good!

This just gave the King of Wu enough time to build a batch of siege equipment to attack Wanling City with all his strength.

After six or seven days of continuous development, the Wu army attacked Wanling City day and night.

But King Xiang Bi of Wu discovered that this Wanling City was extremely difficult to attack.

The prefect of Wanling City was Xie Anran, the son-in-law of the current dynasty, and the eldest grandson of Xie Hu Yong, the former lord. The famous second playboy was almost on par with Xiaohunhou.

Xie Anran is very famous in Jinling City. He is known as the first young talent in Jinling. He is not a false reputation. Although it was his first time fighting, he was surprisingly sophisticated and calm.

As soon as he took office, he immediately began to repair and strengthen the city wall. After several months, he forced the city wall to rise by half a foot.

Many arrow towers were also built, and arrow towers came out.

Even the original wooden city gate was nailed with solid iron plates, which were thick and strong. Dozens of soldiers could not push them.

I also made a lot of city-guarding equipment, rolling wood, oil pan, and iron spikes to resist horses, leaving no obvious flaws.

This Wanling City was built like a turtle shell.

The Wu army attacked for six or seven days and built many large siege equipment, but they could not even be smashed.

...

late at night.

The Wu army had a camp of more than ten miles, and the torches were bright.

As usual, the 40,000 Wu soldiers attacked Wanling City all night, not giving Wanling City defenders a chance to rest.

In the camp, the soldiers of the Wu army were also sent out posts step by step, with bonfires everywhere, so they were strictly prepared to prevent Xiaohunhou from stealing the camp.

Xiang Bi, Xiang Xian, and the father and son were in the camp, looking at Wanling City, wishing they could conquer it immediately.

Since Xiang Bi learned that King Chu was defeated by Xiao Hunhou, he was not so annoyed by Xiang Xian's defeat.

The King of Chu's army was so powerful that he could not defeat Xiaohunhou.

Xiang Xiancai had only 10,000 soldiers, so it was normal for him to lose in Danyang County.

Just get used to it when it comes to victory or defeat.

"Xie Anran, a handsome scholar, is also worthy of the Prime Minister!

His grandfather Xie Hu Yong was the former prime minister, the leader of the family officials, and his disciples and former officials were spread all over the court and the country, and he had a deep influence in the court.

Xie Anran has the same iron bucket as the one who runs Wanling City, and his abilities are also quite good. He is a general with both civil and military skills!

Unfortunately, such talents are all dedicated to the court.

This is true for Xiao Hunhou, and so is Xie Anran!

The emperor is so lucky. If the two of them, even if one of them can serve me, I will not worry about not belonging to me."

King Xiang Bi of Wu sighed.

"Father, our army's offensive is a bit too urgent. It will probably take three to five days to capture Wanling City. Our attack at all costs has greatly lost our troops and lost three to five thousand soldiers every day.

These days, our army has forced men everywhere in Danyang County to maintain a 250,000 military force. These men brought in are unfaithful and may escape at any time."

The prince Xiang Xian felt a little regretful.

After the six or seven days, the Wu army attacked Wanling City and had 20,000 to 30,000 soldiers and horses killed.

Although they are all miscellaneous soldiers and all farmers, they are all miscellaneous soldiers brought from Wu. They are very loyal to the King of Wu and are obedient. It is a pity to die.

The newly recruited men were all farmers from Danyang County. They ran away as soon as they found an opportunity, without any loyalty.

"How can the Father be in a hurry?"

Xiang Bi waved his whip, pointed at Wanling City, and sighed: "The little Hunhou is not an easy person. From the time he fought against the 100,000 Chu troops, he knew that his actions were extremely fierce and fierce, just like a hungry wolf.

The King of Chu had crossed the river and revealed a few flaws, and was defeated by him with his weak forces.

Once my Wu army reveals a flaw, he will definitely pounce on him.

We must take down this Wanling County city as soon as possible. Only when the father is in the territory of Danyang County can there be a strong city to defend. If Xiao Hunhou wants to defeat our Wu army, it will be difficult for him to ascend to the sky.

Only then can the father threaten the Jinling imperial capital at any time, force the emperor to defend the imperial city to the death, and dare not send troops out of the city easily!"

The two of them were talking.

Suddenly, the starry sky in the night exploded with a few dazzling fireworks.

The dazzling fireworks made the soldiers of the entire Wu army camp run out one after another, look up and see this unheard miracle landscape, and they are all dumbfounded.

"What is that?... Could it be fireworks? The fireworks invented by Xiao Hunhou?

I heard that the fireworks event in Jinling City was very stunning on the Chinese Valentine's Day, which made the city's powerful and noble people amazed.

Unfortunately, that night, my sister and hundreds of assassins failed to assassinate Xiao Hunhou. So much so that he left this disaster and defeated the 100,000 troops of the King of Chu, causing our Wu Kingdom to be passive."

The prince Xiang Xian felt extremely amazed in his eyes.

Although he is in Wu, he is well-informed and not blocked.

What happened in Jinling City was sent to Wu by secret spies, and they knew a lot about them.

"I think it's right! The fireworks, at first glance, are really amazing and breathtaking. I don't know who sets off fireworks in this wilderness, for whom to watch?"

Xiang Bi was also a little surprised and said with a smile.

Suddenly, he thought of something and was stunned.

yes!

These fireworks are not ordinary things, and they are extremely in short supply and scarce in Jinling City.

In this wilderness, unless you are in this wilderness, these uncommon fireworks are set off?

Who is it?

What do you want to do?

Fireworks...Little Hunhou?!
