Without the unparalleled Zhou Yu as the governor of the capital, Wu is partial to Jiangdong, if the Central Plains does not undergo major changes, I am afraid that Sun Ce will not be able to make many waves in this life.

Especially this time, on the basis of Huang Gai's surrender, Lu Su was captured. In this way, it is equivalent to cutting off half of the country of Wu.

What's more, the Central Plains is so big, and there is only this one piece of the cake, it can be said that for Qin Gong Yingfei, harming others is self-interest.

The thought flickered in his heart, and Qin Gong Yingfei looked at the night sky and thought about the situation in the Central Plains, because he knew in his heart that when night came, the pursuit of the Chu army had become an empty talk.

Before going north to attack Zhao, there is no doubt that the Wuling battlefield must be resolved.

……

"Your Majesty, the Foreign Legion has lost 24,300 men, and the rest of the army has lost 16,250 men, and now our army has less than 80,000 fighting strength."

Hearing Zhou Yu's inventory of casualties, Qin Gong Yingfei's eyes flashed with a gleam, and it was undoubtedly worth paying the price of 40,000 casualties to defeat the southern battlefield.

With a thought in his heart, Qin Gong Yingfei looked at Zhou Yu, said in a deep voice, "Wu Chu has been assigned to the army, and the whole training will be carried out immediately, and when the sky is bright tomorrow, the Chu army will be pursued."

"No."

Nodding in response, Zhou Yu turned around and left, at this moment he admired Qin Gong Yingfei's layout very much, now more than half of the 100,000 Chu troops were killed and wounded, and the only way to evacuate was to go to Yiyang, Luo County, and Xiajun to go north to Jiangxia County.

And the 50,000 Qin troops led by Wei Li have already been waiting in Yiyang, as long as Ji Ling dares to lead the remnants of his army to retreat, they will definitely fall into the pocket formation set by Qin Gong Yingfei.

Thinking of this, Zhou Yu couldn't help but admire Qin Gong Yingfei's foresight, this is simply a genius in the sky, unparalleled in the world.

……

At the same time, the Chu army, which fled in a panic, also set up camp and stabilized.

It's just that in the big tent of the lord at this moment, the atmosphere is dead and silent, and it is oppressive and uncomfortable. The losses in this battle were heavy, not only the entire army of Wu was annihilated, but even the state of Chu was also lost in half.

……

"General, our army died 80,000 people in this battle, and only 50,000 troops remained, and there has been no news from Yiyang in the recent period, I am afraid that Yiyang has already fallen into the hands of Qin Gong Yingfei."

A touch of shock flashed in Yang Hong's eyes, and he had to admit that the gap between Qin Gong Yingfei and Ji Ling was like a ravine, which could not be crossed at all.

"I'm afraid there is a chance that what the military advisor said, it seems that Qin Gong Yingfei is going to destroy our army here this time."

Nodding, a touch of unnaturalness flashed in Ji Ling's eyes, because today's battle made him feel what it means to be powerless, and being on the battlefield is like competing with giants.

It was a kind of panic, a deep powerlessness, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't change the situation of the battle in the slightest, and even Ji Ling felt this battle, and the victory or defeat was decided by Qin Gong Yingfei's thoughts.

Feeling the horror of Qin Gong Yingfei, Ji Ling naturally knew that Yingfei definitely had the ability to leave himself in Hanshou County in a battle, and now he retreated without chasing, there was no conspiracy in this, it was impossible at all.

……

"But Yiyang is our army's grain and grass supply area, once Yiyang falls, our army will not only face the crisis of grain and grass emergency, but also have no way out."

……

Hearing this, he glanced at Ji Ling deeply, Yang Hong's eyes rolled, and he said, "General, once the sky is bright, our army will definitely suffer from the crazy attack of the Qin army."

"For today's plan, the only way is to march immediately, pass through the Tang Dynasty, cross Nanjun, take advantage of the boat to take Huarong Road, go straight to Jingling, and then rest in Xiling City."

Yang Hong's suggestion is the only way for the Chu army to survive at present, although Ji Ling is not a talent of thousands of miles, but he sees this very clearly, but now that Chu Gong Yuan Shu has not yet given the order, once he retreats, it will inevitably lead to heavy responsibility.

The thought flickered in his heart, Ji Ling glanced at Yang Hong deeply, and said: "Military Division, now that the king has not given the order to retreat, once our army retreats, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain."

What kind of person is Yang Hong, he is the military advisor of the Chu State, and he is a hollow person who plucks out an eyelash, so he naturally sees through the worry in Ji Ling's heart at a glance.

……

After being silent for a while, Yang Hong's eyes moved, looked at Ji Ling, and said, "General, with 50,000 remnants of the army and 70,000 or 80,000 troops of Qin Gong Yingfei, do you have the confidence to win in one battle?"

"Besides, once Yiyang really falls into the hands of the Qin army, if you don't leave at this moment, when it dawns our army is dragged by the Duke of Qin, I'm afraid we will only have the fate of being surrounded and annihilated."

Seeing Ji Ling swaying, Yang Hong's expression changed slightly, a fierce color flashed in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice.

"General, there is a way to be outside, and the king's order is not subject to it. At such a time of crisis, the general should make a decision as soon as possible, and the defeat of this battle does not mean that the next battle will also be lost. ”

"Once the whole army is annihilated, it will definitely cause the national strength of the Chu State to be damaged, and the Chu State will be in danger at that time."

……

"Whew."

……

I have to say that Yang Hong is a person who can speak well, and his three-inch tongue can turn the world upside down, and in just a moment, Ji Ling was persuaded by Yang Hong.

Of course, there is inevitably a trace of Ji Ling's mind at work, and no one can still resist stubbornly when he knows that he will die.

Maybe there will be a dynasty that has been peaceful for a hundred years, but now in such a vast and troubled world, there will never be such a person. In troubled times, interests are the only thing, and they are also where action lies.

Not to mention a figure of Ji Ling's status, the number one general of the Chu State can be said to be above 10,000 people under one person, especially in this troubled era, even the prime minister can't compare.

If he dies in battle, the glory and wealth of the past will be a dream.

All kinds of thoughts flickered in his heart, Ji Ling exhaled a deep breath of cool air, looked at the direction of the Qin army camp where the five-colored lanterns were still hanging, and said in a deep voice.

"Military division, order the army to pull out the camp overnight, approaching in the direction of Zuotang, we will withdraw from Wuling and enter Nanjun directly, cross Huarong Road and enter Jiangxia."

"No."

Nodding in agreement, Yang Hong turned around and left, because he knew in his heart that if he wanted to annihilate the Qin army, there was no chance at all.

Walking out of Ji Ling's big tent, Yang Hong suddenly remembered Lu Su's warning a few days ago. Let himself and others pay attention to Yiyang, and even proposed to let Huang Gai guard Yiyang to ensure the food route of the army.

At that time, Ji Ling and Yang Hong thought that Wu Jun wanted to take advantage of the fisherman, so they ignored Lu Su's suggestion, so that they were in a dilemma at the moment.

As soon as he thought of this, Yang Hong turned around and walked towards Lu Su's big tent, this time, he wanted to discuss with Lu Su, and even get rid of Lu Su at the necessary moment.

……

"Mr. Zijing?"

At this moment, Lu Su's face was gloomy, he saw the scene on the battlefield in his eyes, Huang Gai was besieged by the Qin army, and the fate of the front army of the Wu-Chu coalition army, in addition to dying in battle, surrendered.

Feeling irritable in his heart, hearing Yang Hong's voice at this moment, Lu Su's eyes rolled, and a touch of uneasiness passed through his heart, and said.

"Strategist."
