Seeing Cao Chun leading the tiger and leopard cavalry to come, Cao Cao was overjoyed and hurriedly ordered: "Quickly order Cao Chun to lead the tiger and leopard cavalry to block Lu Bu." ”

The tiger and leopard rider is worthy of the name of Cao Jun's elite, although there are only a few hundred people, but it is blocking the pace of the flying horse, seeing Cao Cao go farther and farther, Lu Bu poured out his anger on the tiger and leopard rider, and the flying horse did not spare the slightest hand.

However, Cao Chun did not have the intention of fighting a decisive battle with Feiqi at such a time, the situation at this time was extremely unfavorable to Cao's army, what he had to do was to retreat and fight as soon as possible to protect Cao Cao's departure.

Seeing that the flying horse was far away, Cao Cao breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "I almost lost my life at the hands of Lu Bu." ”

The surrounding generals looked ashamed when they heard this, and Lu Bu showed strong personal martial arts in chasing and killing Cao Cao, so that among the Cao army, no general dared to stop it, and Xiahou Yuan and Xiahou Yuan joined forces at the same time and failed to win, which greatly deterred the generals of the Cao army.

"The lord should order his generals to gather the defeated soldiers." Xun You reminded that his heart could not be calm, the alliance of princes who originally had a huge advantage in numbers was defeated in this decisive battle, no matter how much the Bingzhou army lost when the princes attacked Huguan, after all, it was the Bingzhou army that won the final victory.

And the benefits that come with this victory are obvious, the battlefield of 110,000 people, the number of blades and armor obtained, the captured soldiers can be selected from the elite can be replenished into the army, and the strength of the army can be improved as quickly as possible.

Cao Cao nodded, the defeat of this battle was indeed a bit unbelievable in Cao Cao's opinion, not defeated by the strength of the Bingzhou army, the strong Bingzhou soldiers were dragged by the princes' coalition army, but he didn't expect to be defeated in the hands of Lu Bu, with the strength of one person, mobilize the morale of the whole army, which Cao Cao could not do.

"The defeat of this battle is not waiting for you, but after you return to Yanzhou, you should train your soldiers and horses carefully for the coming day." Cao Cao said slowly, he knew that this battle was probably the beginning of the battle between the Yanzhou army and the Bingzhou army, and in the future battlefield, there would be more confrontations between the Yanzhou army and the Bingzhou army.

Of course, this battle made Cao Cao also gain a lot, although there were tiger and leopard cavalry and the elite Qingzhou army in the Cao army before, there was still a lack of sufficient strength at the elite level, otherwise it would not have fallen into such a situation in this battle.

The number of elites does not have to be large, but the role of elites on the battlefield is crucial, such as trapping the camp, which led to the defeat of the Jiangdong army, and the flying cavalry allowed the Cao army to only give the order to retreat.

The Qingzhou army was crazy on the battlefield, but Cao Cao saw a team that was even crazier than the Qingzhou army.

Sun Ce's face turned pale, the defeat of the Jiangdong Army had a big blow to him, the 40,000 Jiangdong Army that went to the state this time was the elite of the Jiangdong Army, and it would take several years of recuperation to regain strength after returning to Jiangdong after the defeat of this battle.

Like Sun Ce, Zhou Yu's mood is also not very good, the failure of this battle means that a lot of things will be lost, first of all, it is difficult to mobilize troops on a large scale within a few years, and it is difficult to form an effective threat to Jingzhou.

Unlike the decisive battle between the Jiangdong Army, the Cao Army and the Bingzhou Army, after Jingzhou withdrew to Jingzhou, it still had the strength to fight, and Jiangdong and Jingzhou were old enemies, which could not be changed even if it was a joint attack on the United States.

Sun Ce wants to come out of Jiangdong, Jingzhou is the best choice, only with Jingzhou as a springboard, the Jiangdong Army can have the capital to compete in the world, otherwise it can only stick to Jiangdong.

"My lord, although this battle said that the alliance of the princes failed, there is still a chance to make a comeback." Zhou Yu persuaded.

It wasn't until sunset that Lu Bu led the flying cavalry to retreat, and on the way to retreat, broken arms and stumps could be seen everywhere, many wounded soldiers were wailing weakly, and the surrendered coalition soldiers were more tied up in one place by the state army, and the huge battlefield gradually quieted down.

Groups of soldiers from the state army searched for surviving enemy soldiers on the battlefield, and instead of embarrassing the wounded soldiers, they gathered them into makeshift tents outside Huguan.

Fighting is a high-intensity attrition, and when you rush to kill, you don't feel this way, and when you stop, you are not only sleepy, but also hungry.

The wounded soldiers of the princes' coalition army did not expect that they would be able to eat a bowl of hot rice, which made many soldiers burst into tears, in the princes' army, but all the wounded soldiers, the fate they greeted was very likely to be abandoned, which was also a helpless thing, there were so many soldiers in the princes' army, the number of healers was limited, it was impossible to take care of every soldier, rather than spending money to treat the wounded soldiers, it was better to use the money to recruit more soldiers.

As night fell, the generals in Huguan gathered in the big tent of the Chinese army, everyone's faces were full of joy, this battle was won by the Bingzhou army, they successfully defended their homes behind them, so that the people of Bingzhou would not fall into the flames of war.

Most of the soldiers in the state army are the children of poor people, and many of the generals' family members have even experienced wars, so they understand the cruelty of the battlefield to ordinary people.

After Lu Bu, who was dressed in military uniform, appeared in the big tent of the Chinese army, the tent immediately stopped talking, and all the generals looked at Lu Bu's eyes full of heat, it was the person in front of them who led them to win the victory of one war after another, if it were not for the person in front of him, Bingzhou would not be the current grand scene, which is also the reason why Lu Bu personally went into battle, and the state army was completely crazy.

For the sake of the state, for the sake of Lu Bu, the soldiers of the state army can do whatever it takes, even if they die on the battlefield, in their opinion, it is worth it.

Lu Bu glanced around at everyone and said slowly: "Although our army won this battle, it paid a lot of price, and how many hot-blooded sons died on the battlefield. ”

The atmosphere in the tent suddenly became a little solemn, and many generals thought of the tragic situation of their subordinates.

"But our army has won, withstood the attack of 160,000 troops of the princes' coalition, and won the victory, and your achievements are enough to be proud of." Lu Bu's voice rose suddenly.

"The warriors who died on the battlefield, should be kind to their families, and the principle of the state army is not to let the heroes shed blood on the battlefield, and their families will shed tears. Lu Bu said in a deep voice.
