Zhao Bo led the broken Qinglong Army soldiers to the southeast facing the rising sun, and the order he received was to retreat from the southeast.

If it was replaced by generals from other countries, they would definitely not obey orders.

The time to retreat is the latest, and the direction of retreat is the most dangerous. Who wants to take such a road of retreat.

It is clearly a road to death!

But Zhao Bo still walked up without hesitation.

Even General Qi, who gradually calmed down after scolding, wondered if there was something wrong with the Qinglong Army general's brain, why did he run southeast?

Do you think you can escape the siege in this way?

No way?

You don't really think that all the soldiers and horses in the southeast will go to the northwest to intercept them, do you?

Reverse thinking is indeed one of the good choices to break through the siege, but it is by no means a 100% way to break the situation.

Cangde County is the territory of Qi State, the further southeast you go, the deeper you go into Qi State, thousands of soldiers and horses can come out from any city!

After seeing the direction in which Zhao Botong was escaping, General Qi felt that it was impossible for him to succeed.

The sense of urgency in my heart suddenly eased by three points.

"Sooner or later, stop you!"

General Qi really wanted to chase them out, but he knew that the most important thing he should do at this time was to control the city walls and the outer city.

The people in the outer city are slowly waking up. Those who are brave enough to go out of the house tentatively find that the Qinglong Army is gone and return home happily to explain the good news.

There are more and more people on the street and a lot of bad things are happening.

Regardless of the short four or five days of war, many people almost starved to death.

After finally waiting for the Gan Chinese to retreat, they must come out to find a way out.

The current Cangde City seems to have many ruins, but smart people know that there are many treasures hidden in these ruins.

Whoever steps into this ruin first will be able to eat and drink enough, and if he finds a treasure, he can pass it on to his family, and from then on, he will ascend to the sky and live a life without worrying about food and clothing.

It's just that the original owner cannot know who got these treasures.

Smart and decisive people have covered their faces and quietly rushed to the area destroyed by the battle.

The Azure Dragon Army took a lot of things with them when they retreated, but there were also a lot of things left behind, especially those bulky items.

The Azure Dragon Army came too hastily, and the big households in the outer city failed to take away more property, and the Azure Dragon Army retreated too quickly, and with the obstruction of the Qi Army, they failed to take away too much.

If those big families who escaped returned in time after the war, their losses might not be too great, provided that the Qi army did not evacuate the place. '

Kong Jingzhong is not rich, Qi is not poor, and there is no lack of army supplies, but this war is different from the past. Fighting against other countries, unless the war is extremely difficult, the commanders and generals of the army can still get a lot of benefits.

However, in the battle with the Qian Kingdom, the battle seems not to be so fierce, and the Qi army is not extremely difficult, but the supplies in Kong Jingzhong's hands are constantly flowing out!

Just because the Gan army is too slippery, more soldiers and horses must be mobilized to catch them.

The food and grass consumed by hundreds of thousands of troops eating horse chews every day is like water, and the food and grass consumed by transporting materials is really heartbreaking!

It's not that Kong Jingzhong, a battle-tested veteran, has never fought a war, and he has never seen supplies like mountains entering the sea.

But the consumption of food and grass materials this time gave him a headache.

It's not a heartache anymore, it's a headache.

Because of the problem of food, grass and materials, the capital has sent more than one letter to him, each of which hinted that he should restrain himself, and not just because you are occupying the position, you can't just wantonly collect money!

Kong Jingzhong could not explain it through memorials, but could only tell them his situation through private letters. Those supplies were really not greedy for ink (in fact, there were, but they were not as greedy as the king thinks), but were used to wipe out the army.

It's just that whether those people in the capital believe in Kong Jingzhong can't be guaranteed.

Many people believed that Kong Jingzhong would not be greedy so much.

But more people think that Kong Jingzhong is greedy, and he is greedy a lot.

Because they also want to be greedy, they don't believe that Kong Jingzhong can hold back the greed in his heart.

Never underestimate people's desires and overestimate people's control.

Under the temptation of huge interests and the threat of death at any time, people can do anything!

Kong Jingzhong was very wronged, but he had no choice but to hope that the military supervisor and censor in the army could help him clear up his grievances!

The food and grass that the army needs to allocate every day is not hidden from the supervising army. He can write to King Qi directly. Kong Jingzhong doesn't ask him to take credit for himself, as long as he doesn't fan the flames and stir up things!

 …

Qianguo, Cangyang City.

Before Cao Meng arrived in Cangde City, his letter of appeal for help had already arrived at the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies.

The general who was on duty at the Governor's Mansion did not dare to delay, and immediately sent someone to invite Gong Yi, and the two immediately went to the palace to report to Yang Yuan.

The corners of Yang Yuan's mouth curled up slightly after reading the appeal letter.

Seeing Yang Yuan's smile, Gong Yi sighed in his heart, it's not easy for him to be a great general.

Thank you Cao Meng for your hard work!

Such a good general cannot be lost in Qi.

Gong Yi: "Your Majesty, the Qinglong Army is the elite army of our country, and Cao Meng is also an outstanding member of our generals. We should bring them back!"

Yang Yuan closed the corners of his mouth, and said with a serious expression: "Well, Gu has not given up on his habit, and none of the people of our country can abandon it, let alone a lonely soldier, general!"

"Come here, go and ask the left and right ministers, the left and right generals, the ministers of the household department, the military department, and the industry department to enter the palace!"

There is no need to call the general, Gong Yi is in the palace.

Soon, several ministers entered the palace in sedan chairs or on horseback.

After receiving the Wang Order, they rushed to the palace as quickly as possible~lightnovelpub.net~ A few people hadn't finished their dinner yet, and they were called back by Yang Yuan shortly after arriving home.

However, Yang Yuan considered quite comprehensively, and there were several plates of snacks on the table in front of each minister.

"My lords, sit down first. Your Majesty has someone prepare some snacks. You can eat as much as you like. Your Majesty will be here soon!"

A few people were not polite, and sat down to taste a few dim sum. As a person with the memory of a big foodie empire, Yang Yuan's cook must not be bad.

Several plates of dim sum taste good, and they all have innovative techniques, which taste a little fresh.

Soon, Yang Yuan led Gong Yi into the hall.

"You don't need to stand up, you should eat and drink, and read this letter first if you are full!"

Yang Yuan waved his hand and told those who were about to get up to sit down.

After everyone sat down, Gong Yi passed Cao Meng's request for help to Baili Xi next to him.

In fact, Baili Xi hadn't had dinner yet, he went back a little late today, and was called to the palace before he had time to change his clothes when he got home.

He first glanced at Yang Yuan, then frowned and glanced at Gong Yi before accepting the letter of appeal.

After reading the letter, Baili Xi raised his head, and first looked at Gong Yi next to him, you are taking us for fools!

Bailixi looked at Yang Yuan who was sitting on the throne again. It seems that the king is determined to strengthen the fighting power of Qi State!

well!

Bailixi sighed inwardly, and passed the request letter in his hand to the next person.

After receiving the letter, Prime Minister Zuo was a little confused, what's going on.

Why is Master Baili silent!

It stands to reason that no matter what is written in the letter, there should be some reactions after reading it!

Until he read the contents of the letter clearly, he also fell silent like Bai Lixi.

Silence is golden!
