Chapter 714: Sharp Contrast

Qianqian, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Han Tianzi!

The defense line of Yuyang City Defense could not even resist a round of offensive by the Han army, so it was torn apart by the Han army, and Deng Feng could only order the whole army to escape from Yuyang by boat and water.

Deng Feng hoped to go south along the river to Xinye, but the waterway from the water to Xinye had been destroyed by Cen Peng in advance, and the ships could not go through it at all.

Seeing that this road was impassable, Deng Feng had to order the whole army, turn the bow of the ship, and go north along the waterway.

As a result, the river channel near Wancheng was also damaged by the Han army, and the remnants led by Deng Feng are now completely trapped in this section of the river between Xinye and Wancheng.

It can't go south, it can't go north, and the Han army is actively preparing ships, as if they want to fight a water battle with the remnants of Deng Feng's army, and they will annihilate the remnants of Deng Feng's army in the water.

In the end, Deng Feng took his soldiers ashore near Wancheng and gathered in Xiaochang'an, south of Wancheng.

When he was in Yuyang, Deng Fengjun still had 30,000 people, and now he has gone to Xiaochang'an to gather, and the strength of Deng Fengjun's army has been sharply reduced to about 10,000.

When fleeing from Yuyang, Deng Feng's subordinates also said that the soldiers and horses from the counties did not have time to arrive at Yuyang, and the actual situation was that there were no soldiers and horses in the counties of Nanyang to reinforce Deng Feng.

With the arrival of the Han army, the remnants of the army led by Deng Feng were surrounded by the Han legions, and the Han army of more than 200,000 gathered Xiaochang'an in three layers and three layers outside, and the water could not be drained.

At this point, the Nanyang rebels led by Deng Feng were completely in a desperate situation. Not to mention that there are no troops in Nanyang counties to rescue Deng Feng, even if there are reinforcements, in the face of more than 200,000 Han troops, it is also an egg hitting a stone and seeking a dead end.

Xiao Chang'an gathers can be regarded as a magical place.

At the beginning, the Zhutian capital was like the sun, the morale was like a rainbow, and it approached Wancheng, and when it passed by Xiaochang'an, it was ambushed by the reckless army, and the result was a complete defeat, with countless casualties, and this battle also directly led to the merger of the Zhutian capital and the Green Forest Army.

Now, Deng Feng led the remnants and retreated to Xiaochang'anju, facing a desperate situation on all sides.

Deng Feng's forces, in fact, only fought a battle with Liu Xiu in a dignified manner, which was the battle to block the township.

Only this battle was defeated, Deng Feng fell into a situation of no return, has been chased and beaten by Liu Xiu, fled from the township to Xinye, and after being blocked by Cen Peng, he was forced to flee to Yuyang, and then fled from Yuyang to Xiaochang'anju.

Defeated along the way, a full army of 100,000, and in the end there were only about 10,000 people left, and they lost a mess and were defeated.

is still the same sentence, Deng Feng's foundation is too thin, and he is not a genius-level commander himself, he can't afford to lose, just one defeat is enough for him to never turn over.

The war in Nanyang has reached this point, and the overall situation has basically been decided. It is no longer possible for Deng Feng's forces to turn the tide and turn defeat into victory.

Little Chang'an gathering. Deng Fengjun's military tent.

Deng Feng sat in the center, and there were more than a dozen generals standing below, all of them looked worse than the other, some of them didn't even wear armor, and their bodies were covered with thick bandages, and blood could be vaguely seen oozing out.

Inside the tent of the Chinese army, the atmosphere was dull and silent, so quiet that only the sound of people snorting and gasping remained.

I don't know how long it took, a general who could be called Deng Feng's confidant spoke: "General, the soldiers of our army have no strength to fight again, and now they are trapped in Xiaochang and break through...... There is little hope! ”

After he finished speaking, the air in the Chinese military tent was almost frozen, and people lowered their heads one after another, their expressions were sad, and they had no fighting spirit at all.

Most of these generals are veterans of Nanyang, experienced in a hundred battles, brave and good at fighting, but in the face of the current predicament, they are also desperate.

Deng Feng raised his eyes, slowly glanced at the generals present, and said faintly: "Could it be that our army really has no good strategy to break the enemy?" ”

There are only 10,000 soldiers left, and the battalion is full of wounded soldiers, and they still want to break the Han army of more than 200,000, is it possible? Unless it was Liu Xiu, who led the Han army and won the battle of Kunyang with 3,000 to 400,000.

But the problem is that Liu Xiu is now standing on the opposite side of his own side, and he is the supreme commander of the enemy army.

Of these generals under Deng Feng, one is counted as one, and now they have all been beaten by Liu Xiu to lose their temper.

They are Nanyang veterans, they are very familiar with Liu Xiu, and they also know very well how great Liu Xiu's ability is, and they no longer have any hopes and illusions about whether they can win Liu Xiu.

A general took a deep breath, bowed to Deng Feng, and said: "General, if Liu Xiu does not drive the expedition in person, we still have the strength to fight in Nanyang. ”

Speaking of this, he swallowed his saliva, looked left and right, and continued: "In the opinion of the last general, the general should now lead all the soldiers to Liu Xiu...... Disarm and surrender! ”

Hearing the word surrender, Deng Feng's eyes were red, his eyes widened, he glared angrily at the general who spoke, and shouted: "You shut up for me!" "General!" He was already in a desperate situation, and the general was also out of the way, and he said urgently: "I am waiting for the Nanyang veterans to follow the general, hoping that the general can lead us to lay down a piece of territory, make meritorious contributions, and have good clothes and food, but now? old

The brothers have all died, does the general want me to wait for the Nanyang veterans to die without a single one? ”

After he said this, Deng Feng's face changed greatly, he held the hilt of the sword, pointed angrily at the general, and was so angry that he didn't say anything for a long time. After a while, he shouted angrily: "Come on, drag him out for me!" ”

Following Deng Feng's order, two armored guards walked in from outside, grabbed the general's arms, and dragged them out. The general was also a hard bone, and he didn't beg for mercy at all, but looked at the generals on the left and right, and said loudly: "Until now, do you still want to continue to pretend to be deaf and dumb?" We have already lost, we have been defeated, Nanyang veterans, only we are left

Order, do you want to watch all the veterans of Nanyang die? Back then, what was we doing when we followed the generals to rebel? ”

At the end, he couldn't help but burst into tears.

Speaking of which, these Nanyang veterans are all the old departments of the Zhutiandu Department.

At the beginning, Liu Xiu was killed, Liu Xiu was placed under house arrest by Liu Xuan, and there was no one to lead them, and the leaders of the Green Forest Department quickly divided them up. After that, these Nanyang veterans all became subordinates of the generals of the Green Forest Department.

The Red Eyebrow Army captured Chang'an, and the leaders of the Green Forest died and fled, and they also ran back to Nanyang. As the first veterans to follow Liu Xuan to rebel, they ended up empty-handed and ran back to their hometown in Nanyang, how could they balance their hearts?

Coincidentally, at this time, Wu Han led the Han army into Nanyang and slaughtered the city of Xinye.

They came to Deng Feng one after another, hoping that Deng Feng could bring them a good life.

In fact, they did have a comfortable life for a while, but with Liu Xiu's personal expedition to Nanyang, everything was over, and Deng Feng's forces, which seemed to be in full swing, collapsed in Nanyang almost overnight.

Seeing that the general was about to be dragged out and killed, the rest of the generals knelt down to Deng Feng and said, "The general is angry!" "The general looks at General Cheng's past exploits, spare him this time!" "General......

Deng Feng's face was gloomy, and he was silent for a while, and Fang said coldly: "The death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is unforgivable, and the fifty military sticks are heavily punished to set an example!" ”

Hearing this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere of Xiao Chang'an is lifeless, and the atmosphere of the Han army camp outside is very lively.

Liu Xiu ordered that pigs and sheep be slaughtered and the three armies were rewarded. The battle of blocking the township was a complete victory, and I didn't have time to hold a celebration banquet, but now I can make up for it.

In the camp of the Han army, pigs and sheep were slaughtered, and the air was filled with the smell of festive meat. And looking at the state of the soldiers, they are all smiling, and people have no worries about the upcoming battle of Xiaochang'anju.

Inside the tent of the Chinese army.

Liu Xiu and the ministers gathered together. In front of the people was a small wooden table with dishes, chopsticks and plates. From time to time, Yu Linwei walked in and distributed the wine and food to everyone present one by one.

In the battle of blocking the township and the battle of Yuyang, his side won a big victory, and Liu Xiu's mood was also very high-pitched.

He smiled at Wu Han, who was sitting on his left hand: "In the battle of blocking the township, Ziyan should be the first to take the lead!" When Wu Han heard this, he waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty has tormented Wei Chen!" If you want to say that the first merit of the battle to block the township, it has to be Your Majesty! If it weren't for His Majesty sitting in the Chinese army, resisting the ambush soldiers blocking the township, and defeating Deng Zhong, the battle of blocking the township

As a result, it's really hard to say! ”

He began to speak, and the rest of the generals also nodded yes.

Even Deng Yu agreed: "Da Sima is right! The Chinese army is the core of the three armies, if the Chinese army is broken, the whole army will inevitably be in chaos, and the front army and the soldiers on both wings have no intention of fighting again! ”

Liu Xiu laughed, he was very happy and proud that he had defeated the 20,000 elites led by Deng Zhong with 20,000 old and weak soldiers.

He said: "Defeating the ambush soldiers, it is not my own work, the credit of the first grandson is far above me, but unfortunately, the first grandson is not in the army now, and I don't know if the first grandson has captured Deng Zhong now!" ”

Wu Han said with a smile: "Your Majesty, rest assured, the sacrificial general has always been steady, and he is targeted by the sacrificial general, Deng Zhongxiao'er, he is difficult to fly with wings!" ”

Liu Xiule nodded, picked up the wine glass, and said: "This glass of wine, we wish the first grandson a successful capture of Deng Zhong and a triumphant return!" ”

Wu Han and the others raised their wine glasses, saluted Liu Xiu, and then drank all the wine in the glass. Wu Han put down the cup, wiped the corners of his mouth, and said, "Weichen hopes that General Sacrifice can come back with Deng Zhongxiao'er's head!" ”

To say that among Liu Xiu's courtiers, the one who hates Deng Feng and Deng Zhong the most belongs to Wu Han.

Wu Han's thoughts, Liu Xiu naturally knew it, he smiled indifferently, and said: "In the battle of Yuyang, Ziyan should be the first merit, there is no objection to this, right?" ”

When fighting Yuyang, Wu Han personally went into battle, took the lead in killing the head of the city, led the Han army, and directly broke through the northern city.

Now when it comes to the battle of Yuyang, Wu Han is the first contribution, this time Wu Han will not push out, sitting on the mat, the corners of his mouth are grinning.

Seeing Wu Han's happy and triumphant appearance, Liu Xiu laughed again, and even looked at Wu Han with brilliance. Liu Xiu's love and appreciation for Wu Han is something anyone can see.

And Wu Han's performance will indeed rarely disappoint Liu Xiu, except for the battle of Nanyang.

Liu Xiule picked up the wine glass and said to everyone present: "This glass of wine, we should respect Ziyan!" ”

Wu Han smiled from ear to ear, but on the surface, he pretended to be modest, waved his hand again and again, and said, "Weichen doesn't dare to be!" Wechen is ashamed! ”

As he spoke, he picked up the wine glass, grunted, poured a whole glass of wine into his stomach, and then grinned at Liu Xiu.

All the generals present also raised their glasses to Wu Han one after another, and said gossipingly: "Respect Da Sima!" "The last general respects the great Sima!"

Wu Han did not refuse to come, as long as someone toasted, he drank it correctly, and his original white face quickly turned into a big red face.

Just as Liu Xiu and the ministers were drinking and chatting, Long Yuan walked in from outside, walked quickly to Liu Xiu's side, and whispered a few words in his ear. After Liu Xiu heard this, his eyes lit up suddenly, and he said with a smile: "Ziling is here!" Hurry up, please! ”
