The heavy cavalry bloomed a dazzling light on the battlefield in Jingzhou, whether it was Zhuge Liang or Sun Ce, after learning the power of the heavy cavalry, they were excited, if they had such a cavalry, it was a very simple thing to win on the battlefield.

Under the charge of the heavy cavalry, it can be said that they are invincible, of course, if they can have bed crossbows and thunderbolts, they will definitely be able to cause great damage to these cavalry, but they are cavalry after all, when facing bed crossbows and thunderbolts, their dodge is faster than ordinary foot soldiers, and after the heavy cavalry approaches, it is their nightmare that begins.

The cost of forming a heavy cavalry is undoubtedly huge, the war horse must be excellent, otherwise it is difficult to have a faster speed after equipping the armor, just the weight of the cavalry, it is difficult for many war horses to bear, the price of a good war horse is high, and the excellent war horse is in the hands of Lu Bu.

Although the princes encouraged the breeding of horses, such horses could only be used to haul grain and grass, and were not enough to become cavalry horses.

Cao Cao was discussing with the strategists in the tent about attacking Jiangling, but he saw a raging fire burning in Jiangling City, many surrendered Jingzhou generals saw this scene, their faces were very ugly, Jiangling's importance to Jingzhou is undoubted, and the city is hoarding a large amount of rice grain in Jingzhou, but Zhuge Liang was in the retreat, a fire let all this burn, even though they are now hostile, these rice grains are from Jingzhou.

"My lord, there is a fire in the city." A general panted into the tent.

Cao Cao didn't care about scolding this general, hurriedly walked out of the big tent, and after seeing the fire in the city, his face suddenly became gloomy, and he said coldly: "I don't want Zhuge Villager to dare to do such a thing that loses his conscience, if he encounters it on the battlefield in the future, he will definitely be killed." ”

After the accompanying strategists saw this scene, their mood was also a little heavy, Jiangling has enough grain and grass, if they can get it, it can greatly relieve the pressure on the grain and grass, and after these grains and grasses are burned by Zhuge Liang, Cao Jun wants to seize the four counties of Jingnan from Sun Ce's hands, and will face greater problems, the first is the grain and grass in the army, 100,000 troops, countless grains and grasses consumed every day, although the grain and grass in Xiangyang City are sufficient, there is still a big gap compared with Jiangling.

The fire of the Jingzhou army burned not only rice and grain, but also the heritage of Jingzhou and Liu Bei's fame.

After Liu Bei entered Jingzhou, in the eyes of the people, he was generous and treated the people with kindness, but this kind of behavior was not worthy of the name of generosity.

"Lord, Zhuge Liang burned grain and grass, he must want to withdraw his troops from the city." Xun Yu Dao.

"Cao Chun was ordered to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to pursue the enemy, and Cao Ren led the heavy cavalry to accompany him." Cao Cao ordered.

Burning rice and grain is not Zhuge Liang's order, in this case, burning rice and grain, the negative impact is great, although burning grain and grass can weaken the strength of Cao Jun, after all, Liu Bei was the controller of Jingzhou before, and burning rice and grain means that to a certain extent, Liu Bei may seize Jingzhou again in the future.

Although these rice grains are important to Jingzhou, they have not reached a particularly important point, with Jingzhou's heritage, it only takes a short time to regain strength, of course, the premise of all this is that Jingzhou can be stable.

However, this choice is also reasonable, after all, the two sides are in the opposite camp, and since I can't get something, I won't easily cheapen the enemy.

Guan Yu's order made Zhuge Liang suffer infamy, but Zhuge Liang did not explain too much about this, he was thinking about how to let the army retreat from Nanjun, as for Cao Cao's support for Liu Cong to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, he also heard about it, he could predict that once this matter became a fact, what kind of impact it would have on Yizhou, there were no two heavens and no two people, if there were two emperors in the already weakened Han family, what would the princes think, and what the people would think.

However, Liu Cong came to Cao Cao's hands, but this matter is not something that Zhuge Liang can control, after having the emperor in his hands, the impact on the rule is great, with the support of the emperor, it means that he occupies the righteousness, and there are more officials in Jingzhou who support Liu Cong than Liu Qi.

The reason why Liu Bei supported Liu Qi at the beginning was the identity of Liu Qi's eldest son, and the second was that the power behind Liu Cong was too strong, if Liu Cong became the emperor, it would pose a lot of threats to Liu Bei.

Zhuge Liang withdrew his troops from Nanjun, and Cao's army occupied Nanjun at a very fast speed.

When the tiger and leopard cavalry caught up with the pace of the Jingzhou army, the Jingzhou soldiers and horses had already boarded the warship and traveled from Jiangling to Yizhou.

Even though Cao's cavalry was extremely elite, in the face of such a situation, they could only lead their troops back.

Cao Cao seized Nanyang County and Nan County, but the largest area occupied became the Jiangdong Army, at this time Sun Ce's hands had Jiangxia County, Changsha County, Guiyang County, and Lingling County.

The four counties of Jingnan are much weaker than Zhinan County and Nanyang County in terms of heritage, but they are still not to be underestimated, and after Sun Ce occupies them, they may threaten the safety of Nanjun.

"Lord, Wuling County Taishou Deng Xi is willing to take refuge, if the lord leads the troops to go, he will definitely be able to seize Wuling County." Xun Yu Dao.

Cao Cao nodded and said: "Sun Ce Xiao'er, when our army was competing with the Jingzhou army, we sent troops to occupy Jingnan County, if such villains don't drive them away from Jingzhou, how can they relieve their hatred." ”

"My lord, our army has been fighting for a long time, and the Jiangdong army is extremely elite, and it is not easy to capture Jingnan County." Xun Yu Dao.

How could Cao Cao not understand the meaning of Xun You's words, Cao's army fought and dispatched 100,000 troops, and it was difficult to support the consumption of grain and grass for too long, and after seizing Wuling County, I am afraid that he could only choose to retreat, and the longer this war lasted, the more unfavorable it was.

"Seize Wuling County as soon as possible." Cao Cao said.

Cao Cao knew that after this order was issued, the Cao army and the Jiangdong army were about to start fighting, and it was a protracted war, but Cao Cao's plan was to defeat the Jiangdong army and seize Wuling County, so that the war would be temporarily stopped, and the conquest of Jingzhou would make Cao Cao's rule a little unbearable.
