Unlike modern information warfare, different parts of the battlefield can share the combat progress of each party and receive instructions through communication means with almost no delay.

The means of communication in the other world are too primitive.

If the two places are far apart, carrier pigeons and trained falcons may also be used.

But in such a large-scale siege, the way of conveying messages is more direct.

It's nothing more than flag signals, fireworks, war drums and the most direct manpower.

Although Hui Lantu wanted to gain the support of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, he was not a stupid person.

He dared to leave the governor's tent because he had seen signs of the city being breached.

Adieye led his men to take over the Jin soldiers in the south of the city and began to attack the city from the north, southwest and north. The Wu defenders were already at the end of their strength.

In this situation, there was no need for him as the commander-in-chief to make any further arrangements. He only needed to keep charging, and the Jin soldiers would take turns to fight, and the army defending the city would be exhausted to death.

But even so, when Hui Lantu led his personal guards away, he still took a team of messengers with him in case of emergency.

But the problem lies with Wu Quanwen.

Wu Quanwen destroyed the catapult and fought with Aliban who came to check.

Hui Lantu wanted to add some chips to his military merit, so he abandoned his personal guards and rushed over to join hands with Aliban to kill Wu Quanwen.

This is also the direct cause of the embarrassing situation at this time.

No one knows him!

The battlefield was too large, and if the sound of the bronze bell was to be heard by everyone, it would require two warriors to work together to swing the sledgehammer and smash it.

He knew that Lantu wanted to command everyone, but just by shouting, even if he shouted until he died, at most he could only influence 18,000 people around him.

This was a large-scale military operation involving 200,000 troops. If they wanted everyone to move in unison and continue to attack the city, they could only do so through war drums.

Who is it?

How could he bypass my order to retreat?

Could it be that some of the soldiers left behind have already rebelled?

With this thought in mind, Hui Lantu did not hesitate at all. He stepped heavily and rushed towards the military tent.

He had to rush back to check the situation. Fortunately, the military tent was not far from here.

With the speed of a cultivator in the Huajin realm, he had every chance to order the attack drums to be beaten again before the Jin soldiers completely retreated.

Although such repeated military orders would certainly cut into the morale of the soldiers under his command.

But Hui Lantu understood that this was his only chance!

He knew the importance of Qingzhou Prefecture, and the people of Wu naturally knew it too.

Reinforcements from the Yanzhou Army, which is closest to Qingzhou Prefecture, may arrive at any time. Once the Yanzhou Army enters the prefectural city, the Jin soldiers will have no choice but to retreat.

Qingning County, Pingchang County and Jianhe County are all small cities and do not have the conditions to defend.

By then, the garrisons in Yanzhou, Jinzhou and other places will attack at the same time, and they will have no choice but to retreat step by step, and the front line will definitely be forced back into the territory of Xijiang Prefecture again.

If that were the case, he would surely die.

This Qingzhou city must be captured at all costs!

Hui Lantu made up his mind, but after running a few steps, he saw a silver-armored figure beside him, running side by side with him several feet away.

Wu Quanwen!

Although the third prince did not know what had happened, he ordered the Jin soldiers to sound the horn.

But when he heard Hui Lantu's crazy shouting, he had already confirmed Hui Lantu's identity.

The Grand Commander of the Jin Army!

And it was not he who gave the order to call back the troops!

Was it a secret agent sent by Wen Chengjie, or was it someone among the Jin soldiers who turned against them?

Almost in an instant, Wu Quanwen made up his mind.

No matter what the reason is, Hui Lantu must not be allowed to order the drums to be beaten again!

What is Qingzhou Prefecture lacking now?

time!

As long as he could delay Hui Lantu, the Jin soldiers would retreat more and farther.

In that case, it would give Wen Chengjie and others more time to prepare for the subsequent siege.

At the same time, the arrival of the Yanzhou army is closer.

Wu Quanwen stared at Hui Lantu's fat and extremely agile body, stomped his feet hard, drew his sword and rushed towards the opponent.

On the city wall, he showed Wen Chengjie the note that said "It will come soon".

However, Wen Chengjie was afraid that something unexpected would happen on the way to the reinforcements, and that their failure to reach Qingzhou City would affect the morale of the soldiers.

So Wen Chengjie turned around and told all the generals that the Yanzhou army would not arrive until dark.

What Wu Quanwen did not tell Wen Chengjie was that when he received the secret report from the Hidden Dragon Guards, he had already sent another letter to He Hong, the general of the Yanzhou Army, ordering him to speed up and arrive before the beginning of the day.

He had the same worry as Wen Chengjie. He was also afraid that he would give everyone hope, but when the time came, no reinforcements would be seen, which would dampen everyone's morale.

Because he understood that the Yanzhou army must be rushing to help at full speed.

He forced the other party to arrive half an hour earlier, which was already asking too much.

Just now when he went down to the city to destroy the catapults, he was thinking of relying on Xiu to hunt down the commander and deputy commander of the Jin soldiers among the Jin soldiers, so as to prevent the Jin soldiers from working together.

But in the current situation, why should he look for the Jin soldiers to lead the army?

Hold Huilantu...

It would be better to kill him directly!

As long as Wen Chengjie is given time to catch his breath, he believes that Qingzhou City can definitely wait for the Yanzhou Army to come to its rescue!

This city...

It can definitely be saved!

"court death!"

Hui Lantu roared, raised his knife and started fighting with Wu Quanwen.

Aliban's figure next to him was erratic, and the dagger in his hand flew out and stabbed towards Wu Quanwen's ribs like a swimming fish, with an extremely tricky angle.

Ding!

Wu Quanwen just slightly turned sideways to avoid Aliban's dagger, but the sword in his hand changed his moves and a spark flew towards Hui Lantu's neck.

Hui Lantu raised his knife to block, and with a step, he moved three feet away.

Wu Quanwen slashed his sword diagonally, knocking Aliban's golden dagger flying. He retreated two feet away, holding the sword in front of him to be alert.

Aliban clenched the dagger and frowned as he looked at the silver armor that was cut off from Wu Quanwen's ribs.

The knife definitely cut through the wound, but why is there no blood?

He has inner armor!

All three of them were Hua Jin warriors, and their attacks were extremely fast.

In the eyes of the people present, the three of them just bumped into each other and then separated again in an instant.

But only the three of them understood the danger!

"Stop him!"

Hui Lantu said through gritted teeth, then walked away without looking back.

Wu Quanwen endured the pain in his ribs and tried to bypass Aliban and continue the pursuit, but Aliban was like a dog-skin plaster and kept chasing and blocking him.

The three men were extremely fast, and in just a moment they arrived at the military tent at the same time in the chaos of the battle.

But when they saw clearly the figure sitting on the armchair outside the military commander's tent, the three of them were stunned.

Because there, another Hui Lantu was sitting upright and looking at the three people with a stern face.

"Report!"

As the message was announced, a warrior jumped off his horse and subconsciously saluted and shouted to Lu You.

"I have already followed the order of the commander-in-chief and ordered all the drummers to cut the drum skins."

"Now all the war drums have been abandoned, so I came here to report..."
