Chapter 84: Difficult to Guarantee (2/2)



"Could it be that he had a falling out with Zhou Zhenguang?"

"very good!"

"I never expected to achieve such a feat while hiding in the back mountains!"

"What is the enemy's combat strength?" General Wei asked immediately.

The scout immediately replied, "They look weak and listless, even needing to use their spears to walk. In my opinion, many of them probably starved or froze to death along the way."

good!

This is truly a stroke of luck!

General Wei immediately ordered the encirclement and annihilation of the more than 10,000 to 20,000 soldiers who had escaped from Jiangling City.

This battle was incredibly easy.

In less than two hours, the soldiers, who were so hungry they could barely walk, surrendered. The young general who had led his troops out to find a way to survive was bound hand and foot and thrown to the ground.

General Wei squinted and recognized the other party at a glance: "Heh, isn't this Young General Yun Hui?"

"Why are you in such a sorry state?"

General Yunhui was young and impetuous, and he could not tolerate such humiliation. His eyes turned red with anger, and he stared at General Wei, who had defected to the court, with intense resentment and murderous intent in his eyes.

If looks could kill, General Yunhui would probably tear his opponent to pieces.

“Yes, that’s the look in his eyes.” General Wei stepped forward, stomped on his cheek, and sneered, “When Zhou Zhenguang was on the border, he thought highly of you.”

"I told you you were indomitable and had the makings of a general! I never imagined you'd end up in my hands."

"how?"

"You couldn't make a living following that traitor Zhou Zhenguang anymore, you were starving, so you defected from Jiangling City to find a way to survive?"

"Hahahaha... You've finally met your match!"

Yun Hui never expected that he would end up in such a sorry state.

After falling out with Zhou Zhenguang, he led more than 20,000 soldiers away from Jiangling City. Because he dared not take the official road and confront the imperial army, he traveled around the deep mountains.

But to everyone's surprise, it started snowing heavily on the day we left the city.

Of the more than 20,000 soldiers, one-tenth froze to death that very day.

Then the mountains were covered in snow. They didn't have a single grain of rice or a warm coat. There were no wild animals or wild vegetables in the mountains, and 30% of the remaining soldiers starved or froze to death.

In this desperate situation, Yun Hui originally intended to bypass the official road and travel over mountains and valleys to other towns to find a way to survive.

However, they ended up running into a 40,000-strong imperial army hidden in the back mountains...

What bad luck!

“You, surnamed Wei, shut up!” Yun Hui said through gritted teeth, his eyes bloodshot.

"If it weren't for Emperor Yan's fear of Zhou Zhenguang's overwhelming achievements and military power, and his step-by-step traps and schemes that forced Zhou Zhenguang to rebel, we wouldn't be in this predicament!"

"It's clearly the one in the high position who's ruthless and intolerant of loyal generals, yet he blames Zhou Zhenguang for being disloyal and unjust. You guys are utterly disgusting!"

"No matter what Zhou Zhenguang is like, you have no right to say anything about him!"

Although Yun Hui was extremely disappointed in Zhou Zhenguang, his disappointment was ultimately his own business.

We cannot tolerate this heartless General Wei humiliating us.

That's right, that's right...

It was a pity for his soldiers. He thought that by fighting with all his might he could save them, but instead they were sent to their deaths.

I wonder what the situation is like inside Jiangling City. Are the more than 100,000 troops still alive?

Zhou Cheng... that good-for-nothing playboy who only knows how to chase women, I'm afraid he can't even protect himself, right?
