Ji Ling retreated, Ye Chen's plan was half completed, so it was very simple to force Huang Zu back.

The deputy general Wang, who was left behind by Ji Ling, had been trembling, and he was guarding the gate of the camp at night, not daring to rest at all.

One night, it was a painful night, even though it was summer, I felt a coolness in the air, a coolness from hell.

"I hope that the Liaodong army will not be discovered too soon, so that I still have a chance to retreat." Vice Admiral Wang thought secretly.

What he didn't know was that Ye Chen had no intention of attacking him at all, otherwise with their current five thousand people, it would be easy to wipe them out.

Tonight, Yuan Shu's army was highly nervous, as they only had five thousand men left.

But what made them strange was that the army of Liaodong did not come to harass them, and the whole night passed smoothly.

"Phew, it's only been one night, and there's still a day." At dawn, Vice Admiral Wang breathed a sigh of relief, he was so nervous last night that he was very tired now.

During the day, their defense team changed numbers.

"Second brother, when are we going to drive them away?" Zhao Yun asked.

"In the afternoon, it's too early to act, and they won't be able to go far." Ye Chen wanted Ji Ling to run away, and then he would wait for himself to drive away Vice General Wang's team, and then let Huang Zu's spies in, and everything would be perfect by then.

When Huang Zu's scouts saw Ye Chen running back with Yuan Shu's army, they would definitely report to Huang Zu, and Huang Zu would be convinced at that time.

"Let's go, go and get them back to their hometown." Seeing that the time was about the same, Ji Ling had also walked for a long time, and it was estimated that he was already a hundred miles away, so Ye Chen planned to start acting.

"General, general, they, they're coming." The soldiers hurried to the camp to report.

At this time, Vice General Wang had just rested, he kept watch all night last night, and he kept watch for a long time in the morning, and the strong mental pressure made him really unbearable, so he was very tired and had to rest.

"It's finally here." At this moment, Vice General Wang felt a lot more relaxed.

The army of Liaodong gathered in front of their large camp and put a lot of pressure on them.

"Ji Ling has already run away, leaving thousands of you here, and trying to stop us." The tiger head came out first and threatened.

"As long as you surrender, you promise not to kill." After the tiger head threatened, Guan Yu rode out alone and stood in front of their big camp and said.

"Not good." Vice General Wang hurriedly looked at his own soldiers, and found that their will was wavering, they were first threatened by the other party, and then surrendered, they were all abandoned by Ji Ling, and many of them were new soldiers, and they didn't have too strong will, so they couldn't bear it.

"Withdraw, retreat quickly, burn the camp to stop them."

Adjutant General Wang knew that he could not stay any longer, and that it would not be long before his own soldiers would be greatly shaken, and when the enemy charged, there would be a danger of collapse.

So Adjutant General Wang decisively ordered the soldiers to retreat, and then ordered the camp to be set on fire, which was the only way to delay time.

Yuan Shu's army retreated quickly and set fire to the camp.

"Lord, should we pursue?" Guan Yu asked.

"Forget it, just run away, I originally wanted to drive them all the way back, but now that we're gone, then we'll go to meet Huang Zu again." Ye Chen said.

So Ye Chen gave up the idea of continuing to pursue Yuan Shu's army, and instead went south to deal with Huang Zu.

Ye Chen and the others rested for one night, and then turned around and headed south, to deal with Huang Zu.

"Yuan Shu really retreated? Even the big camp was burned? Two days later, Huang Zu got the news and said very shockingly.

Huang Zu would be so surprised, if nothing else, just because Nanyang was destroyed like this by Ye Chen, Nanyang's wealth was almost swept away by him, in this case, Yuan Shu didn't fight Ye Chen to the death, but let him go?

"General, what shall we do?" Yuan Shu ran away, leaving Huang Zu alone.

"We'll withdraw too." Huang Zu was about to cry, the loss of 5,000 people and horses for no reason was not counted, and the last bit of benefit was not gained.

Yuan Shu promised him a large amount of treasures, plus the treasures collected in Ye Chen's hands, if he won, there would undoubtedly be earth-shattering benefits, but who knew that it would be such a result, he thought that the north and south would attack Ye Chen, and the chances of winning would be very large.

When Huang Zu received the news, Ye Chen was almost reunited with Xu Huang, mainly because they were still carrying a bunch of prisoners.

These captives were Yuan Shu's vanguard army, a total of more than two thousand prisoners, Ye Chen took them for a long time, and then he couldn't stand the slow speed, Ye Chen sent a thousand people to guard the back and walk slowly, and he quickly came over to meet Guo Jia Xu Huang.

"Lord, this Huang Zu wants to escape." As soon as he arrived, Guo Jia told him a piece of news.

"He got the news of Ji Ling's retreat, and if he didn't run, he would look for death." Ye Chen said.

"Lord, why don't we take the opportunity to pursue and defeat Huang Zu." Xu Huang was the first to jump out, he hadn't fought for a long time.

"It's okay to pursue, but it's not okay to be defeated." Ye Chen said.

"Young family master, if you want to pursue, don't let them be defeated, how can this battle be fought." The tiger head scratched the back of his head and said.

"It's simple, like a dog, get them back." Ye Chen suddenly said loudly, which startled several people who were standing close to him.

"My lord, it's not easier and more direct to destroy them." Xu Huang is obviously not happy, he has been looking forward to a big battle for a long time.

"No? Now is not the time to completely offend them, we must use the Yangtze River when we go back, and Jingzhou is just above the Yangtze River, it doesn't matter if we offend Huang Zu, if we offend Liu Biao, there will be big trouble at that time, so we will go back with them, but we will not hit them hard. Ye Chen explained to a few of them.

"Okay, let's play with them." Xu Huang said helplessly.

If Huang Zu heard this, he would probably vomit blood in anger, which would become a joke for himself, and he would still treat him as a dog.

"Okay, let's go and prepare, and we'll follow when they do."

After giving the order, Ye Chen asked them to prepare, while he himself was thinking about the next route.

The road back to the north was not so smooth, if it weren't for Yuan Shu and Yuan Shao uniting other princes to attack him, maybe he would have been on the way back to Liaodong, and he actually went south to Jingzhou.

"Fortunately, everything is fine at home, so let me make a big fuss." After thinking for a while, Ye Chen said secretly in his heart.

After Huang Zu got the news, he quickly made a decision, that is, to retreat to Jiangxia and hold on to the city.

Ye Chen and the others must not be allowed to occupy the city, otherwise they will be wiped out, and even the fixed assets can be realized and taken away.

Huang Zu was extremely sad in his heart, why did he get dizzy, he chose to cooperate with Yuan Shu, now it is too late to regret it, he only hopes to protect his city and prevent Ye Chen and them from going in and looting.
