"Lao Ye, in the two days of fighting, the Qin army alone has lost nearly 30,000 people, and more than 20,000 people have been injured or captured, and their strength has been greatly damaged, this is a good opportunity for us to counterattack. At the celebration banquet, the Chu generals were very happy, Shangguan Jian, who had always drunk less, was also drunk, Wang Li was stealing chickens and rice this time, not only the front camp of the Chu army was not captured, but the plan for the sneak attack was also "bankrupt" Yes, he lost so many soldiers and horses, it can be said that it is even worse than Zheng Lang's loss, if he changes to an ordinary general, I am afraid it will have collapsed, but Wang Li will not be so fragile, he is a generation of famous generals, even if he suffers a big defeat, he will not give up easily, Ye Shikai firmly believes this, so he did not take advantage of the victory to pursue, maybe Wang Li has set a trap, waiting for them to throw themselves into the net.

Shangguan said it was reasonable, but he didn't get to the point, although the Qin army was defeated, they had 120,000 people after all, even if they lost half, they still had no less than 60,000 horses, and this time, our army also suffered heavy losses, more than 10,000 soldiers were killed in the front camp and Wancheng, and nearly 20,000 were wounded, so it is not suitable to fight again in a short time. Ye Shikai explained.

"Yes, only ...... of my ironclad army is left One-third, the Qin army is strong, and it is indeed difficult to deal with. Man Cang sighed, he was the vanguard of the battlefield, the average sergeant of the Ironclad Army had four or five heads, although it was an elite, but the continuous battles were also constantly consuming their military strength, and in the long run, no matter how sharp the blade was, it would be dull.

"In addition, we are now close to the strength of the two sides, the Qin army has no numerical advantage, and it is impossible to conquer Wancheng again, our goal is still to hold Wancheng, not to completely annihilate the invading enemy. Ye Shikai is very clear about the situation on both sides, this time to be able to defeat Wang Li, it can be said that it is almost "gambling", the two sides are open, maybe Wang Li is almost lucky, but more, it is still full of desperate support, otherwise Wancheng will be lost, and the main forces of the two armies have been hit hard, so it is not so easy to counterattack Wang Li.

Wang Li will not be so resigned, but Ye Shikai is even more sure that as long as the top and bottom work together, Wang Li will not be allowed to take advantage of the opportunity, so that after two months, the Qin army will retreat, and it will be difficult to go south for several months or even a year, and the power of the Chu army in Nanyang County can also be consolidated, in that case, Ye Shikai will win.

At the celebration banquet, most of the Chu troops were rewarded, especially the vanguard troops, who swept away the "haze" for many days, and the morale of the army was greatly boosted.

Following.

"According to the report, the Qin army retreated one hundred and fifty miles, and has now withdrawn from the territory of Nanyang County. ”

"Haha, they must have been scared by us and didn't dare to fight. Man Cang laughed.

"Yes, this is really good, Wang Li, the general of the Qin army, is a famous general of the imperial court, and this time he suffered a defeat, which is to raise the military prestige of my Chu army. ”

"General Ye is worthy of being the commander appointed by the lord himself, he is young and promising, even Wang Li is not an opponent, according to the last general, it is only a matter of time before my Chu army dominates the Central Plains. ”

Early in the morning, a piece of information from the scouts reached the tent of the Chu army, so that everyone's hearts that had been hanging for many days finally fell, and the Qin army all returned to the Central Plains, which was good news, and retreated one hundred and fifty miles in one day and one night, which could be regarded as a "fleeing in embarrassment", and it was impossible for them to come back in a short time.

"Old Ye, it seems that Wang Li has decided to withdraw his troops. ”

"Their troops are insufficient, it is difficult to overcome, and if they continue to consume like this, the remaining sixty or seventy thousand people will not be able to keep it, what face does he have to return to the court and take the initiative to withdraw his troops, it is better than being beaten back in embarrassment." Mancang said excitedly, and the generals laughed after hearing it.

"Lao Ye, now that the battle is over, shouldn't we go back too. Shangguan Jian continued, "These tens of thousands of troops are stationed here, and the brothers are also very tired. ”

"Qin Jun...... Did they really quit Nanyang County? Ye Shikai asked.

"General Hui, it's true, our brothers are monitoring all the way, and the Qin army has all withdrawn. The scout replied, "In order to prevent the Qin army from attacking back, we have also set up post stations and beacon towers on the road, and once the enemy situation is discovered, it will be immediately investigated." ”

"Well, you go down first. ”

"Wow. ”

"Pass my military order, the army is stationed in place for three days to observe the movements of the Qin army, in addition, send a detailed work to monitor Wang Li himself, if he does not disband the army, then we can not relax, if he returns to Xianyang, I can rest assured." ”

After noon, Ye Shikai took the guards towards Jiangling City, the battle was over, he had to report to Mi Wen in person, in addition, although Wang Li transferred the army back to the Central Plains, but it was not disbanded, Ye Shikai was always difficult to rest assured, for fear that this was his trick of "wanting to capture the old man", so the specific situation, he had to go to Mi Wen to discuss.

They set off in the afternoon and arrived at Gangneung in Namgun in the evening.

"I heard that you won the battle, and it didn't disappoint me. Although it was late at night, Miwen still met him, and she didn't seem to be sleepy at all, it seemed that she already knew the news.

"Luck, luck. ”

"It seems that I didn't misunderstand you, you are indeed a general, defeating Wang Li this time is equivalent to slapping the face of the court, and the heroes of the world will also be inclined to us, and our power can also be consolidated in the future. ”

"But the court will target us more, Wang Li is the grandson of Wang Jian after all, I talked to him personally, although he looks humble, but his bones can be boiled, and it is not so easy to give in to us. Ye Shikai said lightly: "He will definitely find an opportunity to counterattack us." ”

"Then let him come. ”

"By the way, this ...... Here you go. Mi Wen suddenly smiled mysteriously and asked the waiter to hand over a letter.

"What is this. ”

"I have already instructed Miss He to write to you in person, but all the letters she wrote to you will be delivered by a special person, and you can quickly whip up thousands of miles from Linxiang City to Wancheng, and you can also guarantee that the letter will arrive within two days. ”

"Thank you, my lord. Ye Shikai thanked him.

"Lord, this time I came to have a serious matter, now although Wang Li led the troops to retreat and withdrew from the territory of Nanyang County, he is still stationing troops at the border, I am worried that he will not give up so easily, so I specially came over to ask the lord's opinion. ”

"I'm more curious...... Your opinion. Qi Wen smiled slyly and asked rhetorically.

"My opinion, ahem, for the sake of safety, of course, is to let the army continue to garrison the camp and take precautions at all times, of course, the number of people can be reduced, and the sergeants can take turns to guard the village. ”

"Now that you've made your decision, go ahead and let me know if there's anything you need. ”
