Chapter 16 Yuyang lost Zhou Wen and committed suicide

In Yuyang City, Zhou Wen retreated and had to defend the city. Wu Guang had never known the military strategy, but thought that Zhang Chu's situation was gone. He was surrounded by worries every day and didn't know what to do.

Zhang Han did not attack strongly, but was stationed outside Yuyang City. Dong Yi and Sima Xin thought they would fight quickly and then defend Xingyang, but Zhang Han seemed very calm.

The two of them were very puzzled and had to go to the tent to inquire. At this time, Zhang Han was reading a military reading book. When they saw the two of them coming in, they seemed to know what was going on, so they took the lead and said, "You don't have to worry, whether it's time to hurry."

Sima Xin said in a daze: "The six countries should rise up again, and you should attack Zhang Chu quickly and then retreat. It is better to be early than late."

"The Duke only knows one but not the other. Zhou Wen fled from Xingyang to Yuyang this time, and no one came to support him. It can be seen that the intentions of the six countries were both in the defeat, so they did not come to support him." Zhang Han said seriously.

"Is there no talent in the six countries?" Dong Yi comforted.

Zhang Han slowly stood up and closed the military letter, "There are many talents in the six countries, but they dare not stand up at this time. After all, the current situation is very chaotic, and I don't know who should be the assistant!"

The two of them immediately realized that they were more impressed by Zhang Han, "General, how can we do it?"

"Wait, Zhou Wenru is still in the city and his food is not enough. As long as he leaves the city, he will lead his troops to intercept him and prevent attacks at night. If he leaves for ten days, Yuyang will be defeated without attacking!"

At this moment, Zhou Wen did not dare to fight alone in Yuyang City. As the prime minister, Wu Guang knew the most about food and grass. If he did not go to Chen County, it would be difficult for food and grass to last for five days.

So the rebellion cannot be done with impulse. Many situations are difficult to solve. Wu Guang was just paced back and forth in the center of the hall.

I thought it had only been two months since the army was raised, but I had never thought that I was defeated by Zhang Han. It can be seen that the Qin army still has strength. If I stayed in Yuyang now, I would definitely be defeated by Qin. The remaining parties of the six countries were waiting for their hard work and enjoyed the benefits of the fisherman.

It would be a bit unworthy to die here like this. Wu Guang could only use the food matter to get out of it, so he summoned Zhou Wen to his side.

Zhou Wen didn't know the seriousness of the matter at this time. In his opinion, the only difficulty was that Zhang Han. As long as Zhang Han was defeated, he could make a comeback. However, he didn't know that Zhang Han would be defeated and the six kingdoms would be kings. How could he allow Zhou Wen's clown to be active in the world?

"Prime Minister, the city is busy now, I don't know what the Prime Minister calls me to do?"

Wu Guang immediately waved his hand and signaled Zhou Wen to stand up, "The general doesn't know that Yuyang's food is only enough for five days. If you don't rush to Chen County to transport grain, you may be a big mistake!"

When Zhou Wen heard this, he also felt it was reasonable, "What do the Prime Minister think?"

"Food and pay are a major event in the military, so I decided to take the risk and go to transport the food myself. I wonder what the general thinks? In just five days, the general will defend this city and he will return!" Wu Guang said confidently.

"Since that's the case, let's let the Prime Minister do it for the time being! I wonder how the Prime Minister left the city?" Zhou Wen asked quite thoughtfully without knowing Wu Guang's plan.

Wu Guang thought for a moment before saying, "This matter should not be too late, for fear that the army will be disintegrated. Tonight, I will lead a thousand soldiers out of the city and head straight to Chen County to transport grain. I hope the general will wait for a long time!"

Now, the only enemy in front of Zhou Wen was Zhang Han, so he nodded quickly. That evening, Wu Guang led his soldiers to escape from the east gate.

Sima Xin was the first to patrol Wu Guang's soldiers, but did not send anyone to chase them. Instead, he returned to the camp to report to Zhang Han. In the Qin camp, Sima Xin took the lead in saying, "Report to the general, what should the thieves escape from afar?"

"How many thieves are there in total?"

"About a thousand people."

Zhang Han nodded slightly, his face calmed down a lot, "More than a thousand people must have escaped to transport grain. Sima Xin, you will be rectifying two thousand soldiers and ambushing near Mianchi. The food and wages must have passed by!"

Sima Xin received the order and led the crowd to the vicinity of Mianchi the next day, not daring to violate it. Dong Yi was provoking it every day, and Zhou Wen often faced the battle or hung a sign of no war.

In a blink of an eye, no thieves came to transport food, so Sima Xin had to send someone to report to Zhang Han. After all, it was quite difficult to ambush. Zhang Han was overjoyed when he heard the news and directly withdrew Sima Xin.

Twenty thousand Qin troops quickly integrated outside Yuyang City. Zhang Han was in front of the formation and ordered people to shout: "The traitor has no food, so he will come quickly and you can still leave his life and wait for the time!"

"The traitor has no food, come and take the hell quickly!"

Zhou Wen was shocked when he heard the shouts outside the city. The Qin army knew that he had no food. If he did not fight quickly, the soldiers in the city would probably be slaughtered.

"Hey! Wu Guang's unfair son dared to sell me! I'm not going to do anything with him!"

Zhou Wen also wanted to surrender, but unfortunately he broke this idea in an instant. If he was a small soldier, he might be directly incorporated into the Qin army after surrender.

Unfortunately, he is the chief general. If he surrenders, he will definitely be reported to Xianyang. Now there is no food in the city, so he has to fight to the death.

Zhang Han sneered outside the city. For a moment, Zhou Wen also came out of the city. The two armies fought against each other, and the Chu bandits were weak. Zhang Han fought with Zhou Wen for dozens of rounds, and then the Qin army fought directly with the Chu bandits.

Zhou Wenzhi was short of his troops, so he immediately fled from the east gate with his soldiers and rushed towards Mianchi. Zhang Han did not chase him, but held a banquet in Yuyang City.

Dong Yi and Sima Xin were puzzled, but Zhang Han smiled and said, "If I don't attack the thieves, the thieves will collapse." The reward was not clear about its meaning.

Zhou Wen had nearly 10,000 soldiers in Yuyang, all of which were made up of the common people's thugs. He was defeated by Zhang Han, killed three or four thousand and surrendered thousands. Zhou Wen only led 500 soldiers to station in Mianchi.

Zhou Wen was more angry than anyone else at this moment. He had been guarding Yuyang for five days and did not see Wu Guang coming to support him. He was very frustrated and wrote a letter to King Chen She of Chu.

The King of Chu in Chen County was a little surprised when he received Zhou Wen's silk book. Wu Guang and Zhou Wen were both soldiers, but Wu Guang actually took the lead in running away under the name of transporting grain. His crime will never be forgiven!

Wu Guang was shocked when he heard that Zhou Wen fled to Mianchi in Chen County and wrote a letter to Chen She. He thought that a total of 10,000 soldiers were all killed or surrendered because of his incompetence.

Such acts cannot be punished. Although Wu Guang was over mid-year, he knew the consequences when he encountered problems. Therefore, Chen She had already hanged himself in his mansion before his edict arrived.

Chen She and Wu Guang were supporting each other. Although they lost Yuyang City, according to Chen She's loyal personality, they should not be executed. However, after this, Chen She could not do so, so they had to buried Wu Guang with a marquis.

In addition, I immediately wrote a letter to inform Zhou Wen, trying to prevent and defend the city as much as possible, and not allow the Qin army to break through the city again. Chen She was narrow-minded and encouraged Zhou Wen, but it did not have any practical effect.

No matter how well you say it or how firmly you support it, you will not transport grain or send troops, and you will not be able to fight this battle at all!

Less than three days after Zhou Wen settled in Mianchi, Zhang Han led the Qin army to chase him from behind. Zhou Wen knew that Chen She was unable to become an emperor's cause, so he committed suicide in Mianchi, leaving Chen She and others in Chen County alone.
