At this moment, Western Shu has reached a critical stage of survival. Bai Hua's army in the north is moving south, and Liang Zhang's heavy troops in the east are advancing west. The two armies are advancing very fast, and it is feared that they will meet under the capital of Western Shu soon.
At this moment, Liu Zhengtang was running around in a panic in the court hall.
He did not expect that the diplomatic policy proposed by Han Chenghuan would not have any effect at all. Those princes who were far away would not be able to get through for a while. However, the closest Sanchuan actually chose to launch troops and directly attack the southern part of Xishu.
.
If this continues, Xi Shu will be destroyed in less than half a month.
At this moment, a messenger rushed into the hall covered in blood.
"Your Majesty, the vanguard army of the merchant army has arrived under the royal capital. Please quickly send troops and horses from all directions to return for reinforcements!"
Liu Zhengtang's mouth opened wide: "Whose soldiers and horses are they?"
"There are two routes in total! I don't even know whose troops it is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, another messenger rushed in, rolling and crawling on the ground.
"Bai Hua, Bai Hua is here in person! We are about to attack the city."
Bai Hua's name has a tremor from the depths of the soul throughout Western Shu.
Even Liu Zhengtang slumped there when he heard the name.
"What about the other route? Is it Liang Zhang? I have some friendship with Gongzi Zhang. Maybe he can let me go."
But the messenger was in a daze for a moment: "It doesn't seem to be the case. The flag has the name of Sima on it."
"Sima?" Liu Zhengtang was confused: "Is there a general named Sima in the Great Shang Kingdom?"
The people in the court had already become a mess, and they had no idea who the general with the surname Sima was.
On the wall of the royal capital, Han Chenghuan stood there trembling.
A few months ago, Xishu was still a powerful country among the princes in the world. After a short time, it turned into this situation, allowing people to directly attack the capital.
Moreover, it seems that another general with comparable strength to Bai Hua appeared in Dashang. With only three thousand soldiers and horses, he was able to cross dozens of cities from the east and reach here directly.
The most terrifying thing is that Bai Hua has come from the north with an army of 100,000, rushing like the wind along the way, defeating the army in the northern border of Western Shu.
Han Chenghuan looked at the merchant army that was constantly surrounding the royal capital, and he suddenly wanted to surrender in his heart.
There was a lot of laughter and joy in Bai Hua's Chinese army account. Sima Wu was sitting in the first position to the right of Bai Hua.
Shan Xin had told Bai Hua about Sima Wu before and almost praised him, so Bai Hua was deeply impressed by him.
Although the two met for the first time, they both admired each other.
Sima Wu was able to lead thousands of people to charge here first, which is enough to prove how strong his military capabilities are.
In addition, the two of them are similar in age, so they have endless things to talk about when they meet.
After chatting for a while, Bai Hua walked towards the sand table in the middle of the tent.
"Now my army of 100,000 has surrounded the capital of the King of Western Shu. However, I am not good at fighting this kind of siege, and I don't like to fight. Especially attacking the capital of a country will cost more than attacking an ordinary city.
It needs to be several times more! Can you guys tell me how we can minimize the casualties?"
