For the development of siege equipment, Liu Feng naturally did not want to waste any second, that night, he sent Xu Shu to personally lead a team of men and horses to transport these intact instruments back to the craftsman camp on the outskirts of Chengdu, and Xu Shu personally supervised the manufacture of these siege equipment, and strive to complete the production within half a year.

Liu Feng knew that after last night's battle, Yang Xiu had exhausted his calculations but failed to see even a single soldier under Liu Feng's command, but it was the generals who had most of his disagreements with him who led the army to defend around the depression, causing Liu Feng to lose five or six thousand men and horses, and Yang Xiu would never be able to bear such a loss.

This battle to attack Jingzhou has been regarded as a failure in the hands of Yang Xiu, if he insists on attacking again, most of the remaining half of the men and horses in his hands will probably be lost, for Yang Xiu, Liu Feng does not even have a trace of jealousy, this enemy's combat experience is too little, even if he gives him 500,000 troops, it is difficult to take Jingzhou as his own.

In fact, just as Liu Feng expected, Yang Xiu, who returned to the camp, entered his camp tent almost without saying a word, and before he was about to reach the camp, someone had already informed Yang Xiu of the news that Zhang Liao led 15,000 soldiers insisted on setting up an ambush in the forest and annihilating five or six thousand defenders of Wancheng.

In this way, it made him, the coach, even more unwilling to face Zhang Liao who was in a position under him, at this time, it was only a few hours since he resolutely opposed Zhang Liao's opinions, but the reality gave him a very loud slap in the face, Yang Xiu knew that although the people under his command would not raise this matter to him, but what those people would think in their hearts, Yang Xiu knew it.

He pondered alone in the camp for a long time, and finally grew a breath of turbidity, he thought about all the process from his youth to Cao Zhi's side to assist Cao Zhi, until these times in the battle with Liu Feng, he found that even in the matter of helping Cao Zhi obtain the throne of Wei State, he was not the one with the greatest credit.

Although he tried to persuade some cynical Cao Zhi to compete with Cao Pi for the position of the prince of Wei, Cao Zhi really had this idea, but after being robbed and returned by Liu Feng on Huarong Road, and he did not help Cao Zhi to do anything important except for helping Cao Zhi play some careful thinking about Cao Cao, this review, Yang Xiu's frustration in his heart was even worse, on this day, he finally began to realize that this military power seems to be beautiful, but it is really not something that everyone can control.

Sima Yi was able to behave very calmly when he went out on the expedition, not because he pretended to be a posture, nor because the soldiers of Wei were more powerful than other forces, but because Sima Yi did have extraordinary talent in the use of soldiers, and Yang Xiu in the past was so arrogant that he would never think about this, but to this day, he has to admit that his ability is indeed not enough to help Cao Zhi in any way.

From Xu Chu's mouth, Zhang Liao also learned that it was indeed as he expected, Yang Xiu was attracted by the suspicious soldiers and ran around for ten years, but he just couldn't catch up with them, until the sky was all lit up, he found that it was 10,000 cavalry who led him to run, and at this time the tiger and leopard riders who followed Yang Xiu were only thousands, Yang Xiu had no choice but to give up the pursuit and slowly return to the camp.

Sighing silently, Zhang Liao didn't know what he should do at this point, the morale in the Wei military camp at this time was unprecedentedly low, and the sergeants who were full of confidence because of their own superiority in strength were all discouraged and unwilling to raise their heads at this time, such soldiers were obviously not suitable to fight again, what Zhang Liao was worried about was that Yang Xiu could not overcome the humiliation brought to him by this series of failures, but used the remaining more than 100,000 soldiers to take risks and attack Wancheng.

If it is very possible to storm Wancheng when they have just arrived, but if it is attacked at this time, I am afraid that even Wancheng will not be able to be taken, and the Wei army will be in danger of being wiped out, and if the 300,000 army is really annihilated, the face of Wei will become worthless in the hearts of the people of the Central Plains.

Thinking of this, Zhang Liao stood up and slowly paced in the open space in the camp, he wanted to go to Yang Xiu's camp immediately, persuade Yang Xiu to withdraw immediately, don't let the more than 100,000 Wei troops have any risk, and lose more than 100,000 soldiers, with the current national strength and military strength of the Wei State, he can still afford it, but he is worried that Yang Xiu's mentality at this time is not stable, once it is like in which forest, I am afraid that it will push Yang Xiu in the opposite direction of his thoughts, in that case, the consequences will be even more unimaginable.

Just as Zhang Liao repeatedly weighed the pros and cons and hesitated whether to go to Yang Xiu's camp, a Wei army guard found Zhang Liao and reported in front of him: "The boss asked General Wenyuan to go to his camp tent to discuss important matters!" ”

Zhang Liao's heart moved when he heard this, although he didn't know what Yang Xiu was looking for, but Yang Xiu could still think of discussing with himself, which showed that his mentality at this time should be much more stable than he imagined, so Zhang Liao moved in the direction of Yang Xiu's camp, and he was determined to tell Yang Xiu about the withdrawal of the army.

Opening the entrance of the tent, Zhang Liaohu walked in front of Yang Xiu, saluted first, and then raised his head, only to see Yang Xiu sitting on the handsome position, except that his face was still a little pale, and there was nothing abnormal about the rest.

Yang Xiu first let Zhang Liao to the seat at the top, and then looked up at Zhang Liao, and then finally spoke: "If it weren't for General Wenyuan's persistence in this battle, which left the last trace of face for our Wei army, our army would have been defeated more completely......"

Zhang Liao saw that Yang Xiu's first sentence was actually about this matter, and hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The matter has come to this point, Dezu doesn't need to mention the previous matter, where will my Wei army go from today onwards, Fang is the most important thing." ”

What made Zhang Liao very strange was that Yang Xiu didn't have any dislike for Zhang Liao today, but just sighed after Zhang Liao's words, and said slowly: "The heart of the general, how can I not know that the general is the pillar of the country, and he has made immortal feats for my Wei country, and he has rarely even been on the battlefield before Xiu, how can Xiu be above the general?" ”
