Zhang Fei packed up his mood, he knew that his performance today was indeed too impulsive, he had not cleaned the battlefield yet, and the actual battle damage had not yet been counted, but as far as he could see, nearly 100 of his comrades had died under the spears of the Yellow Turban Army. If he hadn't ventured, the casualties of his comrades would not have been so serious.

Because of the mobility of the cavalry on this expedition, the heavy cavalry did not wear heavy helmets, but agreed to change into the armor of the light cavalry, so it was not so powerful when charging into battle, and the armor of the light cavalry was not so perfect for the protection of the cavalry, and the original loss of the five hundred heavy cavalry in this battle was estimated to be between fifty and one hundred, which was indeed a bit large.

Originally, Zhang Fei didn't think about these problems in detail, but when Xi Zhicai clarified the problem, Zhang Fei suddenly realized how much mistake he had made. Not to mention how many great results his side has achieved, this loss alone makes Tarzan a little unbearable. Now there are only 3,000 cavalry, and there are only 500 heavy cavalry, and in this battle, one or two percent of the most powerful troops will be lost, and it is estimated that Su Xiu will have the same idea when he comes back.

"Strategist, it's my fault this time, I'll go and confess the guilt myself when the lord comes back, I disappointed the lord and the strategist, and I've been with the lord for almost two years, but I still haven't learned to think calmly, not only living up to the lord's cultivation, but also living up to the expectations of the strategist."

"Yide, I don't want to listen to what you say, the reason why I brought up this question is because I just explained to you before the station that everything is important to the lives of my comrades, Taishan can't afford too many losses, I hope you can learn a lesson from today's battle, as long as you can learn a lesson, then at least there will be no more comrades who will die because of your impulsiveness in the future. The lord has always rewarded and punished clearly, merit is merit, and passing is passing, there is no saying that merit and demerit are offset, I hope you can be mentally prepared. ”

Xi Zhicai knew very well that Su Xiu valued Zhang Fei, and also understood that letting him lead the team was to let him establish his prestige among the heavy cavalry, so that Zhang Fei could be more smooth when he took over the heavy cavalry battalion. That's why Xi Zhicai will be more strict with Zhang Fei, hoping to make him grow up faster.

"Strategist, I understand, after returning to the camp, I took the initiative to ask the lord for guilt. But Strategist, I have a request, and I hope you will grant it. ”

"Yide, say whatever you want."

"Strategist, I'm a rough person, I can't speak, and I'm more reckless in doing things, I think that when the Yellow Turban incident is over this time, I can let me learn something by your side, and I will not be confused if you mention me at any time."

"Yide, it's okay if you want to learn things, but you don't have to wait for the yellow scarf to be destroyed, now the yellow scarf is powerful, and the destruction of the yellow turban is not an overnight thing, I will tell the lord about this, but my requirements for you may be higher than others, if you don't meet the requirements, my punishment will be heavier, you should be mentally prepared."

"Thank you, Strategist!"

After the battlefield was cleaned, more than 170 cavalry were killed, more than 240 were seriously wounded, more than 520 were lightly wounded, and more than 100 infantry were killed or wounded. Although more than 2,000 enemies were destroyed and more than 3,000 prisoners were captured, this loss made Su Xiu feel very distressed.

Su Xiu also listened to Xi Zhicai talk about the situation in the front camp, this battle was a great success on the whole, but the cavalry was killed and wounded by nearly a third, which undoubtedly made it more difficult for him to pursue and suppress later.

"Yide, in this battle, you led the cavalry to take the lead in attacking the enemy's camp, and pinned down the enemy's front camp and the main force of the Chinese army, so that the flanks and rear battalion comrades could retreat smoothly, this is a great achievement, and the heavy cavalry will be led by you in the future, but you have lightly advanced the enemy today, so that you have suffered heavy losses, so you will be punished with eighty rods, can you be convinced?"

"My lord, I have so many comrades who have been killed and injured today, I have no face to receive the merits, and as for the eighty military staff, I am convinced."

"I have strict military discipline in the Taishan army, merit is merit, passing is passing, how to appoint is my business, what you have to do is to think about leading the heavy cavalry, learn today's lesson, and don't let your comrades die for your impulsiveness."

"Zhang Fei has been by my side before, and today's mistake is also a mistake in my appointment, I and Zhang Fei received the staff together, and as the master of the Taishan army, the punishment was doubled, and I received a total of 160 rods."

"My lord, how can I make a mistake and cause you to be punished? I ask my lord to take back my commandment, and I am willing to bear one hundred and sixty rods. ”

"Don't talk nonsense, this is my Taishan military discipline, everyone is treated equally, no one can be excepted, this matter is done. In addition, all wounded soldiers must remember to clean their wounds with spirits, and as long as there is still a breath left, they cannot be abandoned, and they must have the right to be treated. ”

Zhang Fei felt very guilty when he saw that his recklessness actually made Su Xiu punished, and he became more and more determined to follow Xi Zhicai's belief in learning, and was determined to get rid of his frizziness.

Tonight's battle due to Bocai's embarrassed retreat, the capture of countless baggage, Su Xiu and Xi Zhicai after discussion, decided to all the baggage of the Yawang Changshe, handed over to Huangfu Song and them to deal with, after all, the Yellow Turban Army collected things are not very outstanding, for the Taishan Army there is no improvement, but it reduces the team's mobility ability, it is better to be a favor to Huangfu Song.

After a few days of recuperation, the injuries on Su Xiu and Zhang Fei were basically healed, and news came from Huangfu Song that Cao Cao had found reinforcements and had now arrived at Changshe, informing Su Xiu to go to Changshe to discuss the counteroffensive.

Su Xiu stayed in the forbidden He Wang to stay in the camp, and set off for Changshe with Xi Zhicai and Zhang Fei.

"Zhicai, where did you say Cao Cao invited reinforcements?"

"I think it should be Si Li, although the soldiers and horses of Bingzhou are strong, but Bingzhou Assassin Shi Ding originally put heavy troops in Yanmen and Jinyang, and other places can't draw troops and horses, Cao Cao broke through the siege in only a few days, and it is too late to transfer troops from Jinyang."

"Si Li? It's really close, but most of the sergeants in Si Li are old soldiers who have never fought any battles, and it seems that we have to find a way to avoid the frontal charge, otherwise once we are dragged down, the situation will be too unfavorable for us. ”

"Lord, we can't take the lead this time, Bocai is not stupid, he saw our methods a few days ago, he will definitely be on strict guard against us, according to the scout's report, Bocai is now preparing for battle in Yangzhai, this time it is a tough battle, we must think of luring them out of the city, in order to give full play to the advantages of our cavalry."

"Lord, I think that if Bocai hides in Yangzhai, we can shoot some soldiers to blend in, waiting for the opportunity to open the city gate, we don't have to attack the city, and we can naturally reduce the losses of our brothers. Last time, our strength was lost, but Bocai's loss was even greater, as long as the city gate fell, Bocai would most likely not dare to confront head-on and withdraw his troops. ”

"Yo, yes, Yide is starting to use his brains too. So tell me, how to earn the city gate? ”
