Just as the soldier finished speaking!
"What did you say? Say that again?"
The King of Wu, Liu Bi, stood up from the seat of honor and looked at him in disbelief.
"Great…Great King, Huai…Huai Sikou is gone!”
The soldier was so frightened that he stuttered when he saw the King of Wu's reaction.
Hearing the soldier repeat himself, the King of Wu's eyes widened and he was a little stunned.
Huai Sikou was gone?
Huai Sikou was the main road for grain and fodder!
Once Huai Si Kou was occupied by the Han army and the Han army burned the pontoon ships, it would be impossible for them to transport the rations over in a short period of time!
Even if they led a portion of the army back now, it was impossible for them to open up the supply route in a short period of time.
From now on, there would be no more grain transported to the front line camp.
At this moment, not only was the King of Wu stunned, but the King of Chu and the other generals in the tent were also shocked when they heard the news.
At this moment, how could they not understand the importance of this matter?
The Han army had cut off their grain routes and cut off their supply.
Now that there was no food supply, how long could these hundreds of thousands of soldiers last?
"What should we do now?"
"That's right, if we don't have enough rations, the army will definitely fall into chaos!”
"Huai Sikou is in the rear, and there are still twenty thousand soldiers guarding it. Why did the Han army suddenly attack there?”
"The Han army is really ruthless!"
"The Han army is far away from Huai Sikou from Changyi. I'm afraid they already have a plan!”
"Eh, this isn't good?"
……
All of a sudden, the generals in the tent began to discuss in panic.
As the saying goes, if you have food in your hands, you won't panic. Now that the food supply was cut off, everyone couldn't remain calm.
Wu Wang Liu Bi looked at the panicked discussions of the people in the tent and immediately reacted. He regained his composure and shouted at the people,
"Don't panic!"
"Things haven't gotten out of hand yet!”
Hearing Wu Wang's words, the generals did not discuss further. Instead, they looked at Wu Wang, who was sitting at the top.
"Wu Wang, now that the Han army has cut off our rations, what do you think we should do now?”
The King of Chu, Liu Wu, also looked at the King of Wu. He took the lead to ask the King of Wu with a bad expression. Before Sui Yang fell, the grain road was cut off again. This made him feel that something was wrong.
"King Chu, don't panic!"
The King of Wu looked at the King of Chu's bad expression and comforted him. Then, he looked at the general in charge of logistics,
"How long can we last with our rations?”
"Your Majesty, if the rations do not arrive soon, we can only supply them for five days at most!”
The logistics general immediately stood up and said.
"I can only eat for five days?"
Wu Wang frowned. After pondering for a moment, he ordered,
"From now on, the daily rations of the army will be halved!”
"Yes, Great King!"
After the logistics general agreed, Wu Wang immediately turned to look at the many generals in the tent and said,
"Generals, now that our army's supply routes have been cut off, what do you think we should do?”
When the generals heard the King of Wu's words, they looked at each other. Then, the Great General Tian Lubo took the lead and stood out,
"Your Majesty, Suiyang City is at the end of its rope. This general believes that we should step up our attack and break through Suiyang City in one fell swoop!”
"What time is it now?”
When Wu Wang heard Tian Lubo's words, he immediately questioned him with some dissatisfaction,
"What do you think we should do if we can't break through Suiyang City before we run out of rations?”
" This…this…" Tian Lu Bo was somewhat troubled, because at this moment, he could clearly feel that Sui Yang City was indeed reaching the point where it could no longer be defended.
If they could break through Suiyang City, they could still charge straight into the Central Plains and fight for a chance of victory. However, if they ignored Suiyang City now, they would be in an even more difficult situation.
However, this was a gamble. He did not dare to promise anything to the King of Wu. Even if he did, the King of Wu would not listen to him.
Therefore, he sighed in his heart and did not say anything else.
"Your Majesty, why don't we take a detour and attack Xingyang, Luoyang?”
Then, a general spoke up.
"That's not right. If we take a detour now, it will take time. With the rations of our army, it will be very difficult to support a long march!”
A general immediately spoke up!
"Then what should we do? Are we retreating?"
……
Wu Wang listened to the general's words and his expression was not good.
Retreating the army was naturally impossible!
He, Liu Bi, had sent the entire country's troops to launch a rebellion. How could he retreat?
"Your Majesty, why don't we take advantage of the fact that our army still has the strength to fight to the death with the main force of the Han army!”
At this moment, a general stood out and said.
Wu Wang raised his head and pointed at him in agreement,
"You're right. I have the same intention!”
Liu Bi then looked at the generals and said,
"Everyone, since things have already come to this point, I don't want to think too much. Let's fight to the death with the Han army and see who wins.”
Seeing that Liu Bi had made up his mind, the generals did not say anything else.
They knew the King of Wu very well. With Liu Bi's stubborn and conceited personality, it was very difficult to change his decision.
Just as Liu Bi made his decision, a soldier rushed into the tent and reported to Liu Bi,
"Your Majesty, the scouts have reported that the main force of the Han army left Changyi early yesterday morning and is about to reach Xiayi!”
"Oh? The Han army has finally moved?"
Liu Bi was surprised when he heard this, but then he smiled and said,
"Haha, they came at the right time. That saves me the trouble of bringing an army to find them!”
Since Liu Bi had decided to fight the Han army, he naturally hoped to fight the other party before the rations ran out!
He stared at the generals in the tent and said in a deep voice,
"Everyone, victory and defeat will be decided here. If you win, you will all be my future heroes and enjoy endless glory and wealth. If you lose, then I have nothing to say!”
"All the soldiers, quickly prepare!”
