Chapter 48 See Through

"What a pity!" Jiang Cheng said with some regret when he learned that the city wall collapsed, causing the coalition forces to retreat.

"Sir, although it has not met expectations, the bandit army has now retreated for ten miles. It seems that morale is very low!" Zheng Jun smiled on the side.

"It is inevitable to be down, but it cannot achieve a shocking effect." Jiang Cheng shook his head. In his expectation, if the shocking effect caused by lifting the ice wall to more than nine or even ten feet without the city wall collapse, it would definitely make these coalition forces desperate. And that was what they took the initiative to let the enemy see. Jiang Cheng could seize the opportunity, go out of the city to pursue, and have a great victory.

But now, the effect will be greatly reduced. Moreover, the enemy withdraws early before Jiang Cheng is prepared. Even if Jiang Cheng wants to chase him, he can't catch him, so he preserved his strength in disguise.

"How many enemy troops are there now?" Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at Huo Wei and Yue Shan, who were in charge of statistics.

"In addition to the scattered losses in the past two days, the coalition forces have about 27,000 more people." Yue Shan said excitedly, you must know that at the beginning, the enemy troops surrounded Zhaowu City were nearly 100,000.

Ho Wei smiled and said, "During this period, many small countries have given up on continuing to siege the city and led their troops to withdraw. Otherwise, the number would have to be at least doubled."

"It's still eight or nine times more, don't be careless." Jiang Cheng nodded. Because the appearance of the siege cannon not only made Zhao Zihao unconscious, but also made them lose an excellent opportunity to counterattack. Then the enemy commander used fire attack again, which completely deviated from Jiang Cheng's expectations.

"It's already very good!" Bai Zhirou picked up the curtain and looked at Jiang Cheng and smiled: "Just just got the news that the troops stationed in Jingyuan City had appeared a hundred miles away and were expected to arrive within one day. The coalition forces outside the city seemed to have also received the news that they were setting up camps and setting up camps. It seemed that they were preparing to withdraw their troops."

"Post the military camp?" Jiang Cheng frowned.

"What's the problem?" Bai Zhirou saw that Jiang Cheng did not show an excited expression, but instead looked a little solemn, and said in confusion.

"I remember General Zhao Zihao once said that it will take half a month to arrive the nearest army. Senior sister, where did this news come from?" Jiang Cheng looked up and looked at Bai Zhirou.

"A soldier from the military camp, with no problem with armor and tokens." Bai Zhirou looked at Jiang Cheng, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes. She hadn't thought too much before.

"I want to see him." Jiang Cheng looked at Zheng Jun.

"Okay." Zheng Jun nodded, left the room, and soon, he brought a dusty soldier in.

"See General with a humble position." The soldiers brought in bowed to Jiang Cheng and said.

"Who are you? How do I believe you are the one from the army camp?" Jiang Cheng looked at the soldier and smiled.

"Beizhi is the guard of General Yang Qingyuan, the chief general of the military camp. Beizhi's token can be used as a token." The other party seemed a little dissatisfied with Jiang Cheng's suspicion of his identity and was furious.

"No, I just asked casually, by the way, you were still in Jingyuan City ten days ago. When were you sent?" Jiang Cheng smiled. It would not be difficult to obtain the token and military uniform.

"Our army had arrived a hundred miles away yesterday, but we saw Zhaowu City being surrounded. General Yang hoped that the soldiers in the city could cooperate with General Yang to cooperate inside and outside."

"Yesterday, where were you five days ago?" Jiang Cheng asked with a smile.

"Barrien of Sangqing Lake!"

"Okay, the news you brought is very valuable, but now Wu Rui camp has been severely damaged, so it is necessary to consider the matter of sending troops." Jiang Cheng waved his hand and said, "You go down and rest first."

"Yes, I'm leaving." The soldier bowed and turned around and left under the escort of the guard.

"Sir, are there any problems?" Zheng Jun couldn't help but ask for advice when he saw Jiang Cheng frowning and frowning.

"Question?" Jiang Cheng smiled and looked at Bai Zhirou, Yue Shan and Huo Wei beside him. He did not answer, but looked at the three of them and said with a smile: "Senior brother, what do you think of senior sister?"

"The problem is very big." Bai Zhirou said directly: "Pojun Camp came from Jingyuan City. If you say you came here in ten days, although it was a little faster, if you march in a hurry, you might not be able to arrive. There has been a precedent in history that you can travel 300 miles a day, and more than once."

Yue Shan also frowned and said, "But the problem is that the other party was still on the shore of Sangqing Lake five days ago. Yesterday, he arrived a hundred miles away. This is the normal marching speed. In other words, before the other party arrived at the shore of Sangqing Lake, he traveled 2,500 miles in four days and more than 600 miles a day. Ordinary army could not do this at all. He was lying."

"Do you understand?" Jiang Cheng looked at Zheng Jun. He didn't ask about the situation in Pojun Camp, or something. That would be meaningless. If the enemy really wanted to use this as a breakthrough point, he would definitely consider that his identity was suspected and would naturally be prepared.

"So that's it!" Zheng Jun was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly realized that Jiang Cheng had just asked a few points, but now that he was calculated by these people, his scalp suddenly became numb.

Even if all the soldiers in Wurui Camp are troops above the peak of the body tempering realm, if it only takes two or three days, they can travel 600 miles a day, but it is impossible to persist for five days. What's more, Wurui Camp is the first elite army in the Xicheng Border Army. Although Pojun Camp is not bad, it cannot reach the peak of the body tempering like Wurui Camp. Not to mention that all soldiers in Wurui Camp are traveling 600 miles a day, and three hundred miles a day is not something that Pojun Camp can do.

"Sir, why didn't you point it out just now and let General Mo arrest him?" A flash of anger flashed in Zheng Jun's eyes.

"What's the use of catching him?" Jiang Cheng smiled indifferently: "At most, it's meaningless to vent his anger in his heart. It's better to stay. At the same time, the enemy troops outside the city can relax their vigilance. Then, maybe you can take this opportunity to use the tricks and give up the unwilling thieves' army head-on!"

Bai Zhirou and others lit up when they heard this. This might be an opportunity to defeat the enemy.

"How to use the trick?" Zheng Jun was also a little excited. If he could reverse the situation in this desperate situation, he could not only regain the reputation of Wurui Camp's invincible battle, but also add a legendary record of winning with less and counterattacking in desperate situations.

"I haven't thought about it yet, so don't move this person lightly for the time being. Let's think about how to use him first." Jiang Cheng shook his head.

Now he is surrounded and has only so many troops in his hands. For a moment, he really can't think of how to use a trick to deal with this unwilling enemy army. He has no military strength or depth space. Even if he has this opportunity, he will not find the entry point for a while.

"Before this, we must appease this 'Pojun Camp' soldier, and don't make him suspicious." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
