The escape route of the officers and soldiers.

Looking at the Suzhou City in flames from a distance, Zhang Shuye could imagine what would happen to the officers and soldiers trapped in Suzhou City.

With the Manichean attitude towards the government, I'm afraid those officers and soldiers will not end well.

Thinking of the tens of thousands of soldiers and horses who were in desperate situation because of this, Zhang Shuye couldn't help but blame himself, a fishy smell surged up, and with a "wow" sound, Zhang Shuye spurted out a mouthful of blood.

Although Zhang Shuye had no reaction when he chose to retreat, one can imagine the self-blame in his heart. Otherwise, he would not be so guilty that he would vomit blood.

"Captain!"

Noticing Zhang Shuye's change, Han Shizhong came to Zhang Shuye with a quick step and helped Zhang Shuye up.

Zongze hurriedly stepped forward and looked at Zhang Shuye and said: "Captain, victory or defeat is a common matter for military officers. If the Commander is injured because of this and misses the important military mission, wouldn't he be betraying the king's trust..."

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Shuye's face gradually turned rosy. He nodded slightly towards Zongze, indicating that he was fine. He took one last look at Suzhou City and said in a deep voice: "General Han, count the troops.

Let’s go.”

Although Fang La and others noticed that a group of officers and soldiers had escaped from the west gate of Suzhou City, Fang La and others' attention was now focused on the tens of thousands of officers and soldiers trapped in the city.

It can be said that Zhang Shuye was able to plot tens of thousands of elite men this time, but it was thanks to Chu Yi. If Chu Yi hadn't let him pass by without asking, whenever Chu Yi stopped him on the road,

I'm afraid even Fang La wouldn't be able to lead his troops to Suzhou City so smoothly.

A great battle came to an end. The final result was a huge defeat for the government and the army. In the end, the two royal clan elders were besieged and killed in Suzhou City. The tens of thousands of troops, except for the thousands of troops who escaped first, were also killed in the end.

It was just a dozen military generals with strong cultivation who escaped.

Of course, this is also the reason why several heavenly beings in Manichaeism are busy besieging Zhao Kang and Zhao Li. Otherwise, those dozen officers and generals may also be left in Suzhou City.

It was daybreak, and Uncle Zhang, who had already traveled dozens of miles in the direction of Yangzhou, was feeling embarrassed and tired.

Han Shizhong rode up to Zhang Shuye and said: "Commander, the soldiers have been traveling all night, but they are still at the end of their battle. If we continue to hold on, I'm afraid..."

Zhang Shuye looked at the demoralized and exhausted soldiers, nodded to Han Shizhong and said, "General Han, please choose a place to stay and let the soldiers rest."

Looking at Han Shizhong who had taken the order and left, Zongze stroked his beard, nodded slightly and said: "This son will be my pillar of the Song Dynasty in the future!"

Zhang Shuye, who dismounted, sighed when he heard this and said: "Han Shizhong is a qualified general. Fortunately, he did not fall into Suzhou City this time."

After sighing, Zhang Shuye suddenly looked at Zongze and said, "Do you think Fang La's sudden death has something to do with Chu Yi?"

Zongze's hand stroking his beard paused slightly and glanced at Zhang Shuye with a wry smile. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning in his eyes could not be clearer.

If it weren't for Chu Yi's laissez-faire or even connivance, how could Fang La ignore the threat from Jiaxing City and appear outside Suzhou City to deliver a fatal blow to the army.

"Chu Yi is the great thief of the real country!"

Bang bang bang!

There was a burst of applause, and only one voice was heard saying: "The great thief of the country, how lucky is Mr. Chu that he can be so valued by the governor!"

When Zhang Shuye or Zongze heard the voice, their bodies froze suddenly. They turned around and looked at the person who came. They saw a handsome young man who looked to be no more than 20 years old. His clothes were flowing and he looked like a

Like a gentleman, come slowly.

A bald monk in monk's robes held a crescent shovel in one hand, his eyes wide open, and he followed closely with a fierce look. However, it did not take away the brilliance of the handsome young man at all. On the contrary, it made the young man more and more attractive.

Very different.

Chu Yi has always been very private. Even among the capital, at least half of the civil and military officials in the court have never seen Chu Yi, let alone local officials like Zhang Shuye and Zongze.

But for some reason, when he saw Chu Yi, Zhang Shuye had a clear understanding in his heart. This man was Chu Yi, the great eunuch who was notorious and reviled all over the world.
