"You said there are many trenches dug in Jingjue Weng City? Are they all connected, but they are not too deep and there are no traps?"
Regardless of his overwhelming contempt and Latia's hatred, Liu Zhang withdrew his troops from outside Jingjue City and attacked the city directly. Liu Zhang was really not sure. He had led troops for many years and it was impossible to joke with the lives of his soldiers.**
After returning to the camp, Liu Zhang called the Shache cavalry who rushed out of the city to inquire about the situation in the city.
"Yes, King of Shu." The soldier didn't know how to address Liu Zhang. If he hadn't been replaced at the beginning, he should have been a soldier of the Sichuan Army, but now he is still a soldier of Shache. Although he is reluctant, he is still a soldier of Shache, but
Now it was clear that Yarkand's soldiers were controlled by Liu Zhang again, and the soldiers felt strange.
"Okay, you go down."
Liu Zhang waved his hand and fell into deep thought. At this time, a sentry leader came in and said to Liu Zhang: "Lord, we found out from the investigation that the people who died at the top of the city were all outstanding commoners. We also intercepted a Wusun messenger outside the city.
I got a letter, but it was written in Wusun and could not be read, and the messenger committed suicide."
Liu Zhang took the letter, opened it and saw that it was indeed a heavenly book. He asked the people around him, "Do you know each other?"
Xiao Furong, so awesome. Everyone came over, but it was in vain. They didn’t recognize anyone. Wang Xudao: "Master, I’ll grab a tongue and bring it back."
"Forget it." Liu Zhang waved his hand, "You don't need to identify it. It must be a letter asking for help. It is asking for support from Wusun. The Wusun army is not only that many people, there may be ten to twenty thousand troops in the country."
Liu Zhang didn't know that 20,000 of Prince Mitian's 30,000 troops were secretly formed, and 10,000 were instigated by the army to rebel. Therefore, it was estimated from the Wusun Army that there were still 10,000 to 20,000 troops. In fact, the Wusun Army still had 40,000 troops in the country.
.
But this is nothing worse for the Sichuan Army.
"Haha, luckily we killed their messenger." He laughed so proudly.
Wu Tu Gu said: "It's impossible for them to send just one messenger, right?"
"Even Wu Tu Gu knows it." Liu Zhang shook his head, and Wang Xu solemnly said: "Then what should we do? Now except for the five thousand cavalry of the Yarkand Army, the other armies are almost completely wiped out. We only have ten thousand people, which adds up to one thousand people."
If we have 50,000 people, we have to attack 50,000 people, or attack the city, can we win it?"
No one here is a newcomer to the battlefield. Everyone knows the concept of 15,000 vs. 50,000. What's more, these two have seen the combat power of the Wusun Army, which is not at the same level as Cheshi Yanqi's army. Everyone has followed suit.
Stimulants are just as deadly, and they can even commit self-immolation. It would be really difficult for such an army to defeat their large numbers with a small force.
"I'm very afraid. The vine-armored soldiers with protruding bones are invincible. I don't believe how many of them can defeat strong men who can use sledgehammers." He said disapprovingly.
Liu Zhang didn't say anything and let the generals go down first. In fact, for Liu Zhang, it really didn't matter whether the Wusun army came to help or not, because there was another Kushan army, and the Sichuan army had already received the information. The Kushan Empire sent 40,000 troops for the expedition.
This far exceeded Liu Zhang's estimate.
The Sichuan army's food and grass supplies could not last long. If they failed to attack Jingjue, the Sichuan army would have starved to death before the Wusun army came.
Therefore, there is only one way before the Sichuan army, and that is to fight quickly. If they cannot capture Jingjue, no matter how many reinforcements Wusun brings, it will not make them worse. If they can capture Jingjue, no matter how many reinforcements the enemy brings, it will be in vain.
The soldier brought a glass of boiling water. Xiao Furong took it and put it in front of Liu Zhang. Liu Zhang put his arms around Xiao Furong's elastic and smooth waist, frowning and thinking about countermeasures.
"Husband, do you want me to find my senior sister to play the piano for you?" Xiao Furong sat next to Liu Zhang and asked softly, since entering the Western Regions, when Liu Zhang wants to think about problems, Qu Lingchen will play the piano, otherwise Liu Zhang's condition will be worse
It would get worse, and it was also because of Qu Lingchen's piano sound that Liu Zhang never had any major problems.
Just after arriving in the Western Region, half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. Du Wei said that his medicine can last for half a year to a year, but who knows how long it will last after half a year. Both Qu Lingchen and Xiao Furong are worried. Now Qu Lingchen's guards are in Lati.
Next to Ya, Xiao Furong was worried about Liu Zhang's condition.
Liu Zhang shook his head.
Xiao Furong smiled sweetly: "I found that my husband has been in much better spirits in the past two days."
"Oh, really?" Liu Zhang was suddenly stunned. It seemed like this. Liu Zhang felt that he was in good spirits in the past two days. He hadn't felt this energetic for a long time. Logically speaking, these two days were still the most anxious time.
Ah, facing Mi Tian was the first time I faced a strong enemy after coming to the Western Region.
But Liu Zhang immediately gave a wry smile: "What's wrong with you? If your husband can't come up with a countermeasure, we may have to go back."
If they cannot capture Jingjue before the arrival of the Kushan Empire army and the Wusun domestic army, the Sichuan army will never have a chance. Yarkand will be gone, and a Wusun will rise. The situation will be even worse, and Liu Zhang's Western Region expedition will fail.
At this moment, a female voice was suddenly heard outside.
"Let me in, I want to see that bastard Liu Zhang, get out of here."
"There is no need for a witch to speak rudely. My lord is something you can meet every time you meet. Leave quickly... Ah, what are you doing witch? I won't be polite if you act rudely again..."
"What's going on?" Liu Zhang frowned and Xiao Furong walked out and saw Latiya beating and kicking the guard soldier. The soldier couldn't kill him and was forced to retreat.
Qu Lingchen followed Latia, frowning, and immediately stepped forward when he saw Liu Zhang coming out: "Husband, this queen seems to be angry. I am angry that my husband does not save her brother. She must come to you. If I don't see you, I will kill you."
Yan'er really can't stop committing suicide..."
Qu Lingchen didn't say anything further and didn't keep Latia in good hands. Qu Lingchen felt that he had failed Liu Zhang's trust. If Latia really committed suicide, she knew that Liu Zhang would not be willing to see it.
"It's okay." Liu Zhang comforted Qu Lingchen and shouted to Latiya: "Why are you so crazy?"
Liu Zhang roared very loudly. The most annoying woman was Latiya, but she didn't expect Latiya's voice to be louder than hers: "Liu Zhang, you are inhumane. We Shache people are fighting for you, and you actually look at us Shache."
The Che people were completely wiped out, but they didn't even use any troops at all. Are you so ruthless?
Ha, I know, you did it on purpose. You came to the Western Region just to destroy me, Shache. Are you happy now? Our Shache people have been wiped out, and my brother was also captured by that bitch Mitian. Are you happy?
?”
Latia only felt extremely aggrieved. It was okay for a queen who was once all-powerful to be at the mercy of others. It was okay to have her previous wishes completely shattered and trampled upon by a war. But now her brother was captured and the Yarkand Army was destroyed.
, even though I am a queen, I cannot send out a single soldier to take revenge.
To beg Liu Zhang to send troops in this way, Latiya felt that she had suffered more grievances in the past two days than in her whole life. She was arrested by Liu Zhang a few years ago. She felt aggrieved and determined to avenge her shame, but now she is even more humiliated.
Shame, Latiya felt so sad that she almost shed tears.
"Twist her in." Liu Zhang glanced at Latia and turned to enter the room. Qu Lingchen was still hesitating, but after listening to Liu Zhang's words, he lifted the small stature of Latia like a bent lobster.
He got up and screwed into the house.
"Liu Zhang, you bastard, I am incompatible with you, I will smash you to pieces, you will not have a good death." Latia in the air kept struggling, but in vain under the powerful lifting force, Latia felt even more sad.
Tears welled up in his eyes.
"Go down." He put Latia on the ground roughly. Latia couldn't stand firm and almost fell down.
"What do you have to say?" Liu Zhang looked at Latiya and asked.
Latiya was just about to scold Liu Zhang when she suddenly thought that the man in front of her was so thick-skinned that she couldn't scold him at all. He was already embarrassed enough just now. Maybe Liu Zhang, who was scolded, didn't know why he looked down on him.
Latiya looked at Liu Zhang forcefully, and said firmly with a pretty pink face: "Liu Zhang, immediately send troops to attack Jingjue and save my brother. Otherwise, even if you kill me, I will never cooperate with you again."
"If you don't cooperate with me, you will die and Jingjue will be destroyed." Liu Zhang said calmly.
"So what?" Latia said without changing her expression: "It would be better for Shache to be destroyed directly than for me to be used by you until I have no bones left, and then be destroyed again."
Latiya looked at Liu Zhang with hatred in her eyes: "Liu Zhang, just because others don't understand you doesn't mean that I don't understand you. People like you just want to achieve the greatest benefit and will do whatever it takes to achieve the greatest benefit.
When you used Pound in the first place, Pound was clueless and fell into your trap step by step. That's why Ma Chao's army was so easily defeated by you.
You clearly needed the help of the Tsing Yi Qiang, and the Tsing Yi Qiang helped you, but what did you do? You deliberately let the Xian Ling Qiang attack the Tsing Yi Qiang tribe, causing the Tsing Yi Qiang to suffer huge losses, and then destroyed the Xian Ling Qiang.
And after destroying the Xianling Qiang, did it bring any benefit to the Qingyi Qiang? You also worked with Wang Xu to scheme against the Qingyi Qiang. I have heard that the Qingyi Qiang also rebelled in the end, and Gaota was also killed by you. Baima Qiang's
Hua Dang was also killed by you.
Do you think you can eat people without spitting out their bones? As long as they are not yours, no matter whether they are friends or foes, you are included in the calculation. Anyone who helps you will destroy himself.
I, Latia, am stupid enough. Yesterday I agreed to be used by you without thinking too much about it, but today you showed your true colors.
Are you planning in your heart that we Yarkand and Wusun will die together, just like the Qingyi Qiang and the Xianling Qiang? You are dreaming, and I tell you, if you don't send troops to rescue my brother now, don't expect me to help you again.
I know you won't let me go, so just kill me."
After Latiya said angrily, she tilted her neck, as if she was going to kill him at the first glance.
After Latia's words, Liu Zhang was suddenly amused. This was really the first time he heard such a thorough analysis of him, and it was Latia who had only been in contact with him for a short time. It can be seen that Latia's
