Chapter 425: Sun Jian retreats
The beacon fire that continued to the southwest Cao army forces made the cautious Sun Jian retreat, and the cheers on Chenjiabao became more intense, and Li Yan in the fort rolled his eyes and took the lead in shouting, "The prestige of the Cao army shocked the world, and scared Sun Jian away 100,000 soldiers"
As soon as these turbulent words came out, coupled with the overjoyed mood at the moment, nearly a thousand strong men who had just defected to the Chen family called loudly
"Cao Jun's prestige shocked the world and scared off Sun Jian's 100,000 soldiers"
The shouts became more and more frenzied, and the entire people of Chenjiabao were infected, and the whole Wubao burst into crazy shouts.
Even the second-generation direct disciples couldn't help but shout two voices.
Seeing all this, Chen Zheng's eyes were extremely excited, and he walked quickly to Chen Ji's side, "Big brother, Mr. Huang Long has a good respect for you and our Chen family disciples, why don't I guarantee that they can have a future."
Chen Ji looked at the children of Baozhong, and then looked at Chen Chen, Chen Qun, and Chen Zhong, who were the most famous in the clan.
Today's Cao Xing is not the same one at all
Sun Jian withdrew his troops from Chenjiabao and returned to Chen County, and the military meeting in the county government was held immediately.
Han Dang and Wu Jing didn't dare to look him in the eye at all.
However, Cheng Pu was still calm, "Lord, Cao Jun is not far from Chen County, and now he has received a rescue beacon, presumably these things are coming, and the last general proposed to immediately send a powerful envoy to ask for help from the Southern Alliance Lord, even if it is to reconcile it."
After listening to Sun Jian, he looked at Sun Jing, who was still busy with the official document in the meeting, Sun Jing seemed to feel his gaze, raised his head to look at Sun Jian, and then looked at the official document of Chen County in his hand, his heart was full of bitterness.
Cao Xing, who faintly became the leader of Haoqiang and Hanmen, had an influence that spread to Yingchuan, and since Chen County was captured by Sun Jian, the high-ranking scholars among the civil officials disdained Sun Jun, and the disciples of Hanmen and Haoqiang were unwilling to work against Cao Xing, and there was no one left who ran one by one.
The logistics work of the 50,000-strong army and the government affairs of the county seat of Chen County were all pressed on his half-bucket of water, and there was not even a person to help.
Looking at Sun Jian's expression now, he has to go on this mission, except that he is Cheng Pu can also hold half a bucket of water in terms of envoys, but the big war is imminent, Cheng Pu is the number one general of Sun Jun, and the composition of the army is extremely complicated, to put it bluntly, it is a rabble of patchwork.
So there is really no second person to go to besides him.
Sun Jing smiled wryly, "Second brother, I'm willing to take a trip"
Sun Jian has been with Yuan Shu for a few years, and he understands Yuan Shu's calculating temper, and knows that one Sun Jing is not enough, so he turned his head to look at the last seat
"Bo Fu, you should also follow your third uncle"
This is to send the eldest son as a proton
All the generals looked at Sun Jian in surprise, and Zu Mao was about to stop him on the spot, but was stopped by Cheng Pu.
"No"
Sun Ce did not hesitate to come out, and everyone saw the responsibility of a man from his immature body.
Sun Jian bit his lip tightly to prevent him from making a sound because of the pain in his heart.
The relationship between Yuan Shu and Cao Xing is unclear, on the one hand, under the banner of crusading against Cao Xing, on the other hand, he secretly communicates letters, when Cao Xing is mentioned in front of ordinary people, the virtuous brother is the eldest brother of the virtuous brother, that is called an intimacy, who is to slander Cao Xing, he is the first to come out as a big brother to defend the virtuous brother.
kept shouting that Cao Xing would withdraw from the marriage and take his daughter or sister.
With such an existence, Sun Jian naturally can't completely rely on him to resist Cao Xing, and he is not worried about Sun Ce's safety, but does he have any other methods
The conceited battlefield veteran does not dare to resist the elite division of the victorious generals with a rabble.
Sun Jian slowly got up, walked back and forth, and entered the realm of selflessness, but even so, he couldn't think of any perfect plan, but thought of how he would be crushed.
The more Sun Jian thought about it, the more distressed he became, at this moment he was extremely eager for someone to give him ideas, but no, he didn't have a single strategist under his command, he really couldn't think of a way, so he stopped his eyes on the map on the table around Chen County.
"Lonely resistance is easy to become a turtle in the urn, and when the Cao army besieges Chen County but does not attack, the soldiers will not see hope for a long time, and there will be chaos."
At this time, Sun Jian was still eager to follow the performance of the generals and explore a resourceful talent, but Cheng Pu's expression seemed to understand, and there were three people who didn't understand Sun Jing, Han Dang, and Sun Ce, and the rest were all confused and stupid in a daze.
Sun Jian's hope of digging out the talents of wisdom and resourcefulness from the trilogy was extinguished, and he directly issued an order: "Demou, you lead 10,000 old soldiers and 5,000 new soldiers out of the city, choose a city around Chen County to capture it, and use it as a horn with my Chen County."
Wu Jing, you also go with you."
"No"
The military discussion dispersed, and Cheng Pu led Wu Jing and ordered 15,000 troops out of the city.
Cheng Pu convened a local inquiry and quickly set the target at Yanzhou Chenliu, Yuzhou Runan, Chenguo, Yingchuan, Xinji County at the junction of the four counties.
Since ancient times, the border is more desolate, the same is true of Xinji County, compared to the adjacent Xu County, he has to be more dilapidated, Xu County is a big county, the geographical location is also very important, he has a resounding name in history, that is Xuchang.
But Xinji County is indeed a rare small county in the Central Plains, and the city walls are all broken, so naturally it cannot resist Cheng Pu's army.
Cheng Pu, who successfully occupied Xinji County, the first thing he did was to ride his horse around the city wall, check the city defense, look at a large gap in front of him that was nearly one zhang wide, and then think back to the small gaps he saw along the way.
Cheng Pu's face sank like water, "General Wu, you lead the headquarters and five thousand new soldiers to step up the repair of the city wall, and prepare more equipment to defend the city, I will go out and see if I can find some people to come and help."
"No"
Wu Jing obediently received the order.
Cheng Pu never stayed any longer, rode a horse and led five thousand old soldiers out of the city, aimlessly, he made a ghost send a god into the Chen country, and was soon attracted by the prosperity and health of the Chen country.
Chen State and Yingchuan, Runan, Peiguo and other borders, north of Yanzhou, for the four wars, the terrain is flat, there is no danger to defend.
It stands to reason that this place should become the same as Yingchuan, the fields of Siye are barren, the villages are abandoned, and only the Shijia, the vicinity of Haoqiang Wubao, and the township pavilion where the people spontaneously gather, can see the living people.
But here, everything seems to be peaceful and prosperous, the smoke rises in the villages, the farmers bend over to plough the fields, and children can be seen playing by the river from time to time.
This is where you are dreaming
Cheng Pu pinched his thigh hard, and the pain made him face reality.
"Dangdang Dang"
Suddenly, the gongs and drums in the four fields were everywhere, and the farmers and children rushed to the village in a hurry, and Cheng Pu felt more real.
