"Mingjin!" Zhou Fan ordered without hesitation, although there was some unwillingness in his heart, but I have to say that in this situation, he can only choose to retreat.

Zhou Fan's 20,000 troops have been chasing for almost a day and a night, don't look at the ones who are still energetic now, but that is just a breath of puff, wanting to take down that Menghu, in fact, the 20,000 army is already tired enough.

And the reinforcements of Menghu on the other side, that is a real new force, waiting for work, no physical strength has been spent at all, no matter how scumbag these southern barbarian soldiers are, it is not something that Zhou Fan's tired army can deal with now, and in desperation, he can only withdraw first.

Immediately, Mingjin's voice sounded between Zhou Fan's army, and the 20,000 army retreated to the rear without a sound under the leadership of Zhou Fan.

"What are you, my lord?" At this time, the remnants of Meng Hu's army had already turned against the army that came to support, and the leader couldn't help but scream in surprise.

This person's name is Meng Du, a member of the Meng tribe, and he is also his right-hand man of Meng Hu, and he is the one who led the reinforcements this time.

Originally, when he heard the person sent by Zhu Li asking for help, he was somewhat unimpressed. In his heart, his own king is an invincible existence, and against the Han people, how can he be defeated, let alone to the point where he has to ask for help.

But now it seems that this is really like this, not to mention that the king of his own family is embarrassed now, and the other patriarchs of the cave master are not much better than him Menghu, the most tragic is the 50,000 army brought by him Menghu, and now looking at the past, he only gave birth to a little more than 10,000, and the rest of the people are either dead, or they have been arrested.

Meng Hu couldn't help but blush. They were really embarrassed this time, but now was not the time to say this at all, when even yelled at Na Mengdu: "Stop talking nonsense." Mengdu, give me orders. With me leading the army to kill back, I will kill that Zhou Fan with my own hands to vent the hatred in my heart! ”

However, the next moment, Meng Hu's face became a little ugly, because he found that the others were actually looking at him with a strange look, Meng Hu subconsciously turned his head to look, but found that Zhou Fan's army had withdrawn, and from a distance, he was about to lose sight of the tail end of the army.

"What are you doing? Don't chase it yet! Meng Hu shouted angrily.

"Forget it!" Zhu Li patted Meng Hu on the shoulder and said: "Now that the army has lost its morale, even if it can catch up, it may not be able to leave that Zhou Fan, but it will be our heavy losses, let's go back first." ”

"Hey!" Meng Hu sighed helplessly, it was just his angry words before, after he really faced this Zhou Fan, he knew how powerful this young man was, but it was not appropriate to fight again at this moment: "Go back." ”

With Meng Hu's order, the Southern Barbarian Army had a sad and somewhat discouraged atmosphere. Turned around and walked towards the Meng tribe.

Yizhou, Yongchang County.

After the big battle, it was naturally necessary to take a good rest, and this time it could also be described as a big victory. That Menghu brought 50,000 southern barbarian soldiers, and I am afraid that there are only about 10,000 who can go back, at least more than 20,000 southern barbarian soldiers died in battle, and the rest became Zhou Fan's prisoners.

The funniest thing is that among the more than 20,000 Southern Barbarian soldiers who died in battle, at most only half died at the hands of Zhou Fan's army, and the remaining half died at the hands of their own people, and the rest were mainly Banadong and Yang Nong's people. The soldiers and horses brought by the two were almost completely wiped out, and the losses were heavy.

And Zhou Fan is here. Naturally, there were casualties, but fortunately, Zhang Zhongjing was there. With his leadership, the medical craftsmen accompanying his army seem to be much more skilled.

Historically, only about half of the people have really died on the battlefield, and the remaining half are dying after the war because of wound infection, although Zhou Fan does not know how to heal, but he still knows how to reduce inflammation This simple thing, under a toss, the casualties of the army are minimized, which can be regarded as a blessing in misfortune.

The only thing that made Zhou Fan a little depressed was that the eighty elephants he had finally captured had died more than 20 in the previous battle, which made Zhou Fan quite heartbroken.

Although this elephant skin is thick, it is impossible to be invulnerable after all, and the volume is so large, it is like a gun handle, it has been cut so many knives, stabbed so many shots, and there are ghosts who are not dead.

Zhou Fan has already made up his mind not to use these elephants for the time being, firstly, there is no cavalry to control it, and it cannot really exert its power, and secondly, the number of elephants is really small, and when he goes back, he will put a layer of thick armor on these elephants, and then it will be the moment when the elephant cavalry will really exert its might.

"It's really thanks to Zhongjing this time, otherwise we're afraid we'll be trapped by that Nanban poisonous miasma." Zhou Fan said with a smile.

"The lord has a good reputation, this is what I should do." Zhang Zhongjing said politely.

The rest of the people also echoed in unison, although this Zhang Zhongjing is just a medical craftsman, and he is completely incomparable to them in terms of official position, but he is Zhou Fan's savior and benefactor, even Zhou Fan respects him so much, how can others slack off.

Besides, this Zhang Zhongjing is not an ordinary doctor, that is a real miracle doctor, this person eats grains, who doesn't have a time when he is sick, and these generals are usually injured or anything, it is really the same as eating, in case one day a person accidentally suffers a serious injury or something, I am afraid that he will have to rely on him Zhang Zhongjing to save his life, such a miracle doctor, naturally he has to stammer.

"It's a pity that he was run away by that Meng Hu, if only I could catch him!" Gan Ning shouted a little unwillingly.

Hearing this, Zhou Fan was also a little disappointed in his heart, this boiled duck actually flew like that, no one would be reconciled.

Zhou Fan smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay to run." Even if we do catch that Menghu, we won't be able to kill it. And if you threaten Nanban to surrender with that Menghu, I am afraid that they will rebel again in the future, it is really unwise, and only if Nanban is really convinced, then it is okay. ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces also looked better.

"Then Meng Hu suffered such a big loss, he will definitely make a comeback, and there will naturally be room for you to play at that time." Xun You said.

"That's right, then Meng Hu will come once, and we will beat him down the next time, so he can't be convinced!" Gan Ning laughed.

Hearing this, everyone laughed in unison, as if that Meng Hu was like a chicken, and he could handle it at will.

"My lord, when the last general was chasing before, he happened to catch a person, and he didn't look like an ordinary Southern Barbarian soldier." At this time, Huang Zhong spoke.

As soon as Huang Zhong said this, everyone turned their eyes on him, and they were also a little convinced of this Huang Zhong, at least his martial arts were not comparable to the few of them here.

"Oh, who's who, bring it up!" Zhou Fan said happily. He naturally knew that his army had captured more than 10,000 Southern Barbarian prisoners, but Xun You didn't let him kill them, saying that it might be useful to keep them. But he really didn't expect that among these captives, there was actually a big fish. (To be continued)
