Chapter 605: Gone
So, for a long time,
Unless there is something necessary,
Ordinary news will not come to report to Lu Bu,
It's just that every three to five days,
Someone will summarize some of the recent situations,
made a special trip to Lu Bu's side,
for his consultation,
not completely disconnected from the outside world,
However, in the last debriefing,
It's only been two days,
It stands to reason that new reports shouldn't be sent so soon.
Some puzzled and at the same time happy to look at the shadow.
Zhang Ning's little hand that was Lu Bu's waist,
At this moment, I unconsciously let go,
finally made Lu Bu breathe a sigh of relief,
Diao Chan and Lu Qiling also know,
Lu Bu has important things to discuss,
Two people one left and one right,
Slowly helped Zhang Ning to his feet,
The three of them slowly walked out of the gazebo.
The shadow came outside the gazebo,
Respectfully saluted Lu Bu,
Then he slowly got up,
The face is full of teasing smiles,
In fact, when he came,
discovered Lu Bu's predicament,
With his vision and knowledge of these people,
Naturally, he knew that Lu Bu was looking for trouble by himself,
was "punished" by Zhang Ning,
For this case,
Shadows have become commonplace,
But you can't just watch the excitement from the sidelines,
Therefore, he deliberately increased his pace,
Let a few people who are lively,
can hear clearly,
His strength is very well grasped,
Just to be able to make the other party hear,
At the same time, it doesn't feel harsh,
This finally saved Lu Bu.
Lu Bu gave a satisfied look at the shadow,
I rubbed the soft flesh on my waist with palpitations,
I'm afraid that at this moment, this place is already bruised.
Lu Bu thought with some sadness.
While rubbing the sore spot,
While not forgetting to get down to business, he asked:
"What's the important thing again?"
Hearing Lu Bu talk about business,
Shadowko nodded,
His expression also became a little solemn.
Vaguely, there is some excitement,
"War is finally on!"
"At war?"
Lu Bu didn't react at first,
Immediately, he understood what the shadows were talking about going to war,
What does it mean,
Hurriedly stared at each other with wide eyes,
There is also a trace of excitement in the bottom of his eyes that is difficult to hide,
I couldn't help but ask: "
"Is it finally getting started? When is the thing!? ”
Shadow nodded and said:
"It has always been a small friction before, but two days ago, a god ninja of the Wa Kingdom suddenly attacked a village, causing several Central Plains martial arts people to besiege it, and then the two sides started a big war like this."
After listening to the shadow's explanation,
I couldn't help but smack my tongue,
This group of guys went to war so easily,
He originally thought that
The other party will wait until after Himiko returns.
before the real final battle began,
As a result, Himiko did not wait,
But the two sides have already started fighting,
This couldn't help but make Lu Bu feel a little surprised,
He rubbed his cheek and asked:
"Did Himiko show up on the battlefield?"
Lu Bu is most concerned about this person,
Now the combat power of the two sides is roughly equal,
However, Lu Bu could not go to war,
In this case,
If the other party's Himiko is on the battlefield,
Then the Central Plains Martial Arts will be at an absolute disadvantage.
After hearing Lu Bu's inquiry,
But the shadow shook his head without thinking,
Shen Sheng replied.
"No trace of Himiko has been found, and according to Mr. Zhang, it seems that Himiko is not in the Central Plains now......"
Lu Bu nodded, the heart that was hanging,
Finally put it down a bit.
Immediately began to wonder again,
Both sides have already begun to fight,
"How's the battle going now?"
Since I can't understand the other party's movements and reasons,
Then simply don't think about it.
Shadow's face was very relaxed and said:
"Now the two sides have just begun to go to war, and they have reservations about each other, only in the mutual temptation of both sides."
Lu Bu stood up and paced back and forth for two steps,
"Is there a war in several directions at the same time?"
"Yes, my lord."
Lu Bu scratched his head with some annoyance,
"Alas, it's a shame that I can't be a part of it."
The left mouth of the left mouth fell asleep by the body work
Twisted a grape and put it in his mouth and chewed it vigorously,
The more I think about it, the more I feel bored.
I can only sit back on the recliner,
Boredom cocked Erlang's legs,
Glancing at the shadow beside him, he said:
"Okay, I see, if there is any latest battle situation, you must tell me as soon as possible, especially if there is news about Himiko's side."
The shadow nodded hurriedly,
He turned and walked away.
looked at the back of the shadow,
Lu Bu was a little envious,
He still longs for the day when he can go out and fight,
But now,
I can only think about it for a while,
Turning his head, he looked at Diao Chan and the others on the side,
With a happy smile on his face,
Now that I'm home,
Then you should also spend a good time with your family,
Those things out there,
With them to worry about,
You can also relax and unwind by yourself.
"Lord Right Priest, are you going too rash like this?"
Xu Rong, who was old and serious, finally couldn't help but open his mouth,
On the old face,
Hung full of anxious color,
He kept glancing at his friend Li Ru on the side,
I hope that the other party can help persuade Pang Tong together,
But Li Ru acted as if he hadn't seen anything.
even lowered his head slightly,
The little pretending to pick up the wine glass in front of him,
Gently tasted a small bite,
Then he picked up the chopsticks and ate the meal in front of him, which made Xu Cheng can't help but roll his eyes a few times.
But there was nothing to do about him.
Pang Tong had a complete view of the interaction between the two people,
At the moment, I am holding back a smile,
These two people, although they are not young in age, are very easy to get along with themselves.
The other party did not rely on the old to sell the old,
On the contrary, take more care of yourself, a junior,
This made Pang Tong feel unusually heartwarming.
Seeing the relaxed expressions of the two of them,
He also had the heart to make a joke,.
When I turned my head, I found Ma Chao and Pang De,
is sparing no effort to destroy the food in front of him,
He couldn't help but speak:
"Brother Ma, what General Xu just said, can you agree?"
After hearing Pang Tong's question,
Ma Chao raised his head in a daze,
He was still chewing on a large piece of greasy meat in his mouth,
looked at Pang Tong blankly and asked:
"Lord Right Priest, I didn't hear what you just said."
Pound was quite helpless when he saw this,
hurriedly whispered to Ma Chao,
Ma Chao swallowed the meat in his mouth in two bites,
took the sleeve and wiped the grease stains all over the mouth,
Straightened up the pole,
Lang Sheng said:
"Lord Right Sacrificial Wine, I didn't think that now that our army is in full swing, it is time to take advantage of the victory to pursue it, so I don't agree with Lord Right Sacrificial Wine's proposal. Moreover, if you are not willing to be the vanguard, you will definitely take back the head of the Kushan Empire and give it to your lords!"
After saying these impassioned words,
Ma Chao didn't forget to give himself a chance to perform,
As a military general,
There is not a single one who does not desire to charge,
Especially like Ma Chao.
A young and skilled general,
is even more eager to be able to set foot on the battlefield,
Gain fame and glory to the ancestors,
This is something that every young person hopes for.
After hearing Ma Chao's words,
Pang Tong smiled proudly,
deliberately turned his gaze to Xu Rong on the side,
The old general's face was a little ugly,
stared at Ma Chao viciously,
Then he looked at Pang Tong helplessly,
That look, obviously, said,
Even if your rank is higher than mine,
and they will take men to oppress me,
How can there be such a bully.
Pang Tong finally couldn't help laughing,
Ugly face,
At the moment, it looks even more like a punch.
Xu Rong also wanted to open his mouth to persuade,
Li Ru, who has not spoken,
At this time, he finally coughed lightly,
After drawing everyone's attention to it,
Xiao Cai said softly:
"Xia Guan once heard someone say, 'The general will not be subject to the orders of the king outside'......"
After saying this,
Nor did he pay attention to it,
His old friend's gaze as if he was about to kill,
lowered his head and continued to taste the food in front of him,
Xu Rong's face,
Suddenly he was so angry that he almost crooked,
If it weren't for the presence of many people at this moment,
It's really possible for him to jump over,
Twist this old bastard and beat him up,
Ma Chao grinned when he heard this, hehehe,
He naturally heard the meaning of Li Ru's words,
Pound by his side,
I want to laugh but I don't dare to laugh,
It's hard to endure on the sidelines.
Pang Tong couldn't help but laugh dumbly,
stretched out a thumbs up to Li Ru,
Lang smiled and said.
"Hahaha, what a 'will be outside the king's life will not be affected', that's right. Now that there are only about 100,000 left, and the other party is eager to withdraw from the Western Regions, so there is no slightest will to fight, and this is the best time for our army to pursue the victory. ”
Xu Rong finally couldn't help but speak:
"My lord, but although there are as many as 100,000 soldiers in our army today, we have captured 60,000 or 70,000 enemy soldiers in the front line before, and there are more than 10,000 slave soldiers, we need to guard and take care of these people, and at least a third of our army. The remaining two-thirds, most of which are infantry, only Ma Chao's department is a cavalry, but they have been running long distances before, they are very tired, during this time, they have been harassing the enemy army, most of the soldiers' physical strength has reached the limit, in this case, if you want to pursue the enemy army, I am afraid it is very likely to suffer from it!"
Xu Rong spoke very fast,
Quite a bit of a heartache,
As a veteran general who has been in battle for a long time,
Of course, he also knows,
Now is the best time to take advantage of the victory and pursue the expansion of the results,
But though the enemy was defeated,
But it didn't reach the level of rout,
For some time,
Just observe the retreat of the other side,
It is not difficult to see that
The generals of the opposing side did not lose their minds,
In this case,
If with a small number of troops,
If you rush to chase and kill,
So once the other party is prepared,
Even deliberately revealing such flaws,
They're completely losing more than they gain.
The possibility of such a sudden kill is not non-existent.
After Pang Tong listened to Xu Rong's analysis,
and did not rush to refute,
Just a finger lightly tapped on the table in front of him,
This habitual action,
He also learned it from Lu Bu,
Over time, it is about to become his habitual action.
When Xu Rong didn't mean to continue at all,
Pang Tong then opened his mouth to explain:
"General Xu is thoughtful, but he doesn't know that the enemy retreat this time, and there are other hidden secrets."
"Secrets?"
Xu Rong looked at Pang Tong suspiciously,
The latter's face was light and breezy,
It really looks like there is some certainty of victory.
Pang Tong nodded and said:
"General Xu, I don't know if you have noticed that the command style of the enemy army in the recent period seems to have changed its path, as if it is no longer the former commander."
After hearing Pang Tong's question,
Xu Rong couldn't help but be slightly stunned,
He thought about it carefully,
It is indeed as Pang Tong said,
The previous opponent's command style,
Although in general,
More radical one,
But in fact, whether it is advancing or retreating,
The other party is actually quite cautious,
Except for the battle in the first line of the sky,
Except for being led by Pang Tong by the nose and eating a big defeat, the rest of the time,
Overall, the other party's command is quite remarkable,
Even at some critical moments,
It can be said that it is invulnerable,
Even when the retreat begins from the first line of the sky,
Although Ma Chao has been leading the team to hang far behind the Kushan army,
Looking for opportunities,
Cause some trouble for the other party,
even wants to create opportunities for Pang Tong's follow-up army,
But it never worked.
However, in recent times,
The other party's retreat,
But he seemed to be in a hurry,
It can even be said that
It's all starting to panic,
This is the same as the previous style of conducting,
But it's the opposite,
Xu Rong really didn't take this into account before,
Now after hearing Pang Tong mention it,
He also understood the deep meaning of the other party's words in an instant.
After Pang Tong saw General Xu's expression,
Immediately understood that the other party had noticed that all this was unusual,
Then he continued:
"Listening to Liu Jun's report, it seems that the commander of the other party is no longer there."
"Gone!?".
Xu Rong couldn't help but look at Pang Tong in surprise when he heard this,
It's not just Xu Rong who was taken aback,
All of you here,
It's almost all the same,
Even the most calm Li Ru,
At this moment, his eyes widened,
looked at Pang Tong who said this earth-shattering news.
Pang Tong touched the short beard of his chin,
also showed a strange look on his face,
Then he continued to answer:
"It's really gone."
After a pause, he continued:
For this matter, Liu Jun went to the front to investigate carefully, but after all, this animal is different from humans, and he can't be sure whether the commander named Mamel on the other side is dead or has gone elsewhere. However, what can be determined now is that that Mamel is not in the army of the Kushan Empire now, and the person in charge of the commander now is Mamel's personal guard. Moreover, this news, within the enemy army, does not seem to have spread. ”
