The night was gone, and the light of day dawned as day.

Ancient village.

Looking at the mountain of corpses and the sea of blood, Guan Ping stood on the wall of the wall, and couldn't help muttering: "Alas, the war is ruthless!" ”

Although he sighed like this, Guan Ping also knew that now it was a troubled time, and the three kingdoms were united, if one side did not sweep away the strong enemy and unify China, then such a war would never stop.

In the middle of the ring, Zhao Zhong arrived with a body covered in blood and full of injuries, and arched his hand: "Major General Qiqi, our army has lost more than 1,000 soldiers in this battle. ”

"More than a thousand?"

Hearing this, Guan Pingnong muttered a lot, and then recovered as before, and said loudly: "Although our army suffered heavy casualties in this battle, our army completely annihilated the elite of this Wu army. ”

"This battle, a big victory."

"Ten thousand wins, ten thousand wins."

As Guan Ping shouted, the tired sergeants around him all held up their spirits and shouted.

A sound, resounding for miles around, was vaguely heard.

"You two, quickly help Zhao Zhong down, let the doctor in the army treat and deal with the injury."

"No."

At this moment, looking at Zhao Zhong's injuries, Guan Ping couldn't help but be anxious, and immediately ordered the guards from the side.

It is important to know that if the injury is not treated in time, it is very likely to be infected and lose your life!

As Zhao Zhong was helped away, a moment later, a figure stepped forward again.

In the middle of the ring, Deng Ai rushed over with a knife, his face was happy, and said: "Major General, the Wu army's warships have been fully controlled, and this time we will harvest several ships, hundreds of fighting ships and ships. ”

"Hmm."

With a soft hum, Guan Ping then ordered: "Next, quickly clean up the battlefield, cremate the corpses to avoid causing plague, and then bring the bones of our soldiers back to Jingzhou for burial." ”

"If there are wounded soldiers, let the doctor treat them as soon as possible to avoid infection, and the rest of the soldiers will go to the village to rest."

"At night, I'm returning to the west of the river!"

When the words fell, Guan Ping couldn't help but think of something again, so he looked at Deng Ai from the side, and said slowly: "Shizai, I looted many villages along the coast the night before yesterday, and now you immediately lead a group of sergeants to carry the looted materials south, and wait for the night to come and the people rest, you quietly return them to them." ”

"No."

The order was handed down, Deng Ai gave up his promise, and then led the order to retreat.

At this moment, Guan Ping looked into the distance and had a lot of thoughts.

He thought deeply at this moment, because when he looted the coastal villages, in addition to plundering the materials, he did not hurt anyone's lives, and now he ordered all the materials to be returned to the people, so that in the future, the matter will really be exposed.

The people of Wuzhong will not hate their own army too much.

After all, the people along the coast still don't know that it was the Jingzhou army that robbed them, but "thieves".

As for the Haoqiang clan, there has already been a fierce fight with the Jingzhou army, and Guan Ping is not sending back supplies, because that is meaningless, and the big clan will still hate the Jingzhou army and will not be grateful.

On this day, Guan Ping led the crowd to break the Wu army in Chibi, and then escorted the prisoners of war at night, and led the crowd to cross Jiangxi and then go!

………

On the north bank of the Han River, the camp of Fancheng.

"What, you mean that the young general has led the people to make a detour to Jiangxia and return to Jingzhou?"

At this moment, in the account, after Ma Liang got the news, his face suddenly became anxious, and he asked loudly.

His mind was in a mess at this time, and he didn't think at all about what Guan Ping was doing.

"The lone army went on a northern expedition and led the army back to the south, which one is this singing?"

After thinking for a while, Ma Liang couldn't help but smile bitterly and muttered: "Young General, you cut first and then play the Northern Expedition, the prince is already very angry, and now you quietly return to the army." ”

"If the prince knows, he will be furious!"

After thinking for a while, Ma Liang looked at the sergeant standing and said slowly: "Say, the young general ordered you to return to see me, but what important things do you command?" ”

Since Ma Liang reached a consensus with Guan Ping at the beginning, he should always guard against Jiangdong's sneak attack, so after thinking about it for a while, he probably understood Guan Ping's good intentions.

Hearing this, the soldier in the tent knelt on the ground and arched his hand: "The young general asked the villain to tell Mr. that now the time has come, please open the bag as promised." ”

"Finally, the young general begs sir, that you must act according to the advice and try your best to persuade the prince."

As soon as the words fell, Ma Liang understood, so he waved his hand to signal the sergeant to retreat, and then took out a bag from his bosom and opened it.

When the bag opened, a piece of paper fell into view, and when Ma Liang saw this, he immediately unfolded it and watched it carefully.

"When Cao Cao went south, he was guarding along the river, and when he returned to Jingzhou, the Wu army was ready to go."

On the paper, it was this sentence, Ma Liang read it, thought about it carefully, and immediately had an epiphany, and then immediately got up, walked out of the tent, and went to the main account.

He wanted to admonish Guan Yu today, give up continuing to attack Fancheng, and withdraw his troops to defend.

From this tip, Ma Liang could feel Guan Ping's urgency, and the sneak attack of the Wu army was no longer a guess, but a fact.

It must be known that this tip was prepared more than a month ago, when Guan Ping led the lonely army to the Northern Expedition, and when he was dying.

This shows that Guan Ping has been guarding against the Sun family, and is very sure that Jiangdong will inevitably betray the alliance and sneak attack.

Thinking of this, Ma Liang didn't dare to be careless at the moment, so he immediately ran to the main account.

In the big tent.

At this time, Guan Yu was sitting in danger, and the generals under the steps were also arguing with each other.

"Ladies and gentlemen, since the major general took Xiangyang, our army has begun to mobilize heavy troops to storm Fancheng, but it has lasted for nearly two months now, and Fancheng is still difficult to capture."

"I thought that our army should stop attacking Fancheng, retreat to Xiangyang, and confront each other across the river."

At this moment, because after more than a month, although Cao Ren's troops in the city had been suppressed, they were still unable to capture Fancheng, Wang Fu had already made up his mind and persuaded the generals to retreat.

It's just that when the words fell, the former governor Zhao Lei shouted angrily and said coldly: "Withdraw the troops and confront each other across the river?" ”

"This is nonsense!"

With a loud shout, Zhao Lei paused, and continued: "Our army has been storming Fancheng for more than a month now, and Fancheng is already at the end of its force, as long as it is under a large-scale attack, it will definitely capture the city. ”

"Retreating at this time, how can you be worthy of the soldiers who have died since the Northern Expedition?"

"Not only that, since the Northern Expedition, our army first broke Cao Ren's several formations, forcing him to hold out, and then the prince and the prince happened to take advantage of the heavy rain to drown the Seventh Army, making our army more and more powerful, and the land of Sizhou set off rebellions one after another."

"At the same time, the major general took Xiangyang lightly and made a northern expedition to Xudu, causing turmoil in the Central Plains."

"Wang Guoshan, now Cao Wei's interior is already a mess, and our army withdraws at this time, isn't it a matter of giving up the results of the battle and falling short?"

After a reprimand, Zhao Lei immediately turned around and bowed, looked at Guan Yu, and asked: "Prince, please give me two more days, the last general will definitely take Fancheng and slaughter all his people." ”

At this moment, Zhao Lei's face showed a resolute look and asked for battle.

Originally, Zhao Lei and Liao Hua were stationed in the north to guard against Cao's reinforcements, but because of the past few days, Fancheng has not been able to resist again and again, and because Xu Huang's troops have not moved.

Therefore, Guan Yu transferred Zhao Lei back to capture Fancheng.

In the next second, Wang Fu still stood up, his face was resolute, and he exhorted: "Prince, Fu strongly recommends that you stop continuing to attack and retreat to Xiangyang." ”

"Now that Xiangyang has been seized by the major general, the land of my southern county will no longer be threatened by the Cao army's troops at all times, and the strategic purpose has been achieved."

"Marquis, lead the people to withdraw the army!"

For a while, Zhao Lei and Wang Fu did not agree at the moment.

It's just that the generals under his command are all supporting Zhao Lei and unanimously asking for battle.

Hearing this, Guan Yu stroked his beard, muttered about the suggestions of the generals, and was about to speak, when the guards outside the tent immediately rushed in with knives and said: "Qi Yu Junhou, the horses outside the tent are engaged in asking for a meeting." ”

"Maleonn?"

"Let him in."

A majestic voice was heard, and the guards immediately surrendered their promises and withdrew from the main tent to herald.
