Chapter 948 Li Mi's Thoughts

One hour or two hours, it was still fighting at night. The continuous attack made hundreds of thousands of people feel like they were trapped in a quagmire, and many people were relying on perseverance to support them.

As the battle time increases, casualties continue to increase.

"Your Highness's casualties are beginning to increase. If you continue like this, even if you take down Wagang City, our casualties may be more than half." Changsun Wuji reminded.

Five hundred thousand soldiers are their capital to build on the world. Changsun Wuji felt very distressed that he finally accumulated such a family foundation. If the loss was too great, even if he won, he might be threatened by the insiders of the Li family.

Changsun Wuji knew this very well, so he had to remind him.

"Perseverely hold on, I don't believe that the Emperor of Wei in the city is so calm."

"Will they surrender on their own initiative?" Changsun Wuji said curiously.

Li Shimin shook his head. If he could surrender so easily, would this battle be so tragic?

"No, but they will definitely send someone to negotiate."

Changsun Wuji thought about it and seemed that there was no benefit to them at all. Li Mi did not surrender to them with wealth and food, which were what they wanted most, but not just these.

"Your Highness and the others may use a delaying strategy. Their reinforcements are large and there are many reinforcements, and it is impossible to surrender easily. If we stop, it will not be beneficial to us."

Changsun Wuji figured it out, but he just didn't know how to deal with it. Let's waste time talking or not, both parties need to fix it.

"Order to stop siege and let all the troops encircle and suppress their reinforcements." Li Shimin suddenly said.

He saw that the reinforcements led by Wang Junke wanted to retreat while it was dark. Once they were allowed to leave, it would be like providing the enemy with a force to restrain them, and such a thing must not happen.

The soldiers responsible for siege began to quickly withdraw from the people behind, leaving only a few people to continue to find ways to break the city gate.

The soldiers who siege the city already knew that they should not block the city gate even if they did so, they would need to break the city gate. Even if they were piled up with stones, they would have to drill through the stones.

At this time, the people who were already under the city could not retreat. They all held shields on their heads to prevent the enemy's arrows and stones from hitting the city gate with logs one by one.

Wang Junke had long seen the situation on the battlefield. It was already dark. If they did not leave, they would fall deeper and deeper in the battle. If they could not escape in time, their team that could restrain the enemy's main force would lose their effect.

The final result may put Wagang City in a state of no return.

So they must leave and must not let the enemy succeed, so they have the intention to retreat and believe that as long as they are there, the enemy will be afraid.

However, his intention was discovered in advance by Li Shimin. Now it is difficult to use all his main forces to deal with them.

Shan Xiongxin on the city was anxious when he saw this situation, but he couldn't do anything and could only hope that Wang Jun could successfully escape.

The idea is good, but if you are surrounded by many enemies, there will be so much fighting spirit. In addition, they are already exhausted after rushing to fight for a day. With their willpower, they have no way to break through the siege of their excess troops.

The battle continued. Li Mi in the palace in the city could not sleep and feel frightened, making him feel a little weak, as if he could encounter a little noise.

When he saw that the person who was here to deliver the message immediately asked, "How is the situation outside?"

"Two hundred thousand reinforcements were besieged, and the city defense was alleviated."

After hearing this, Li Mi almost felt his head sank and almost fainted. Reinforcements were the basis for whether they could defend Wagang City. If reinforcements could be destroyed, Wagang City would become an isolated city, even if they defended the city, they might not be able to last long.

The news at this time brought despair. If half of his Wei State was taken, his country would become someone else's power.

He really hates Li Shimin now, but hating it will not help but be unhelpful. What he is thinking about is how to solve the current situation.

The key now depends on whether Wang Jun may successfully break through the enemy's blockade with his troops. This is the only hope that Wei State can persist.

Perhaps it was too dark, making the encirclement difficult, or perhaps it was because the battle between the two sides lasted too long and the soldiers were exhausted and unable to fight again. The situation on both sides was very bad, so Wang Junke still escaped.

I don’t know how many soldiers and horses were taken away, but I can only verify them by the remaining soldiers and horses.

"Your Highness, Wang Jun has escaped."

"I know, I can escape under such circumstances, it's true that I'm a bit like this. Have you checked how many people they took away?" Li Shimin asked.

"At least half." Changsun Wuji said.

"The soldiers are too tired..."

Changsun Wuji explained to the soldiers that it was impossible to maintain combat power in such a high-intensity battle.

Li Shimin knew better than anyone else that it would be a big trouble for failing to intercept the enemy's reinforcements, but it would not be without results.

At least most of the enemy's troops were left behind, which played a crucial role in the subsequent siege.

After gaining something, I immediately decided to withdraw my troops temporarily.

Shan Xiongxin on the wall of Wagang City did not feel as relaxed as the soldiers after seeing the enemy retreating. He knew very well that Wang Junke was the key. Now, the next task of defending the city will be extremely difficult.

"General Shan, Your Majesty summoned him."

Shan Xiongxin knew that Li Mi would look for him at this time and rushed to the hall immediately. At this time, Li Mi was waiting for him. All the soldiers wearing armor outside the hall were waiting.

Shan Xiongxin understood what Li Mi meant. If he couldn't defend himself, the emperor would leave immediately. It is a matter of affirmation for anyone who wants to be the king of a country that is destroyed.

"General Shan, can't I defend Wagang City?" Li Mi was very smart at this time, no matter how greedy he was, there was nothing more important than his life.

Now he has no choice but to leave, and he directly said that his purpose was to trust Shan Xiongxin. It was at a critical moment when he did not act in advance, and if he waited for the enemy to attack, he would fall into a passive position.

"Your Majesty, the situation is not optimistic, but I will always guard the city, and the city is there." Shan Xiongxin said confidently.

Li Mixin said, how could I leave if you say this? Perhaps Shan Xiongxin understood the other party’s meaning and immediately said again: “Even if you are besieged in the city, it is not optimistic. If you can leave Wagang early, you may need your Majesty’s support in the future.”

Shan Xiongxin's statement is already very tactful, just let Li Mi go first so that he will stick to the city.

"Since General Shan needs it, I will follow your arrangements." Li Mi said.

"How many soldiers and horses will Your Majesty take away?" Shan Xiongxin asked suddenly. This is related to how long he can hold on.
