Chapter 159: The Situation Turns
"Withdraw."
"Cao's army is too strong, the pursuit is useless, go."
The generals yelled and walked away.
"Huh?"
Just now, he was still shouting and shouting and fighting, and the killing was abnormal, although he had the upper hand, but the momentum was quite crazy. Now it's a retreat.
Because the change was too fast, the soldiers of Jingzhou and Chen Sheng's coalition army were stunned, and it took a while to react, and everyone fought and retreated, and quickly retreated to the rear.
Not only Jingzhou, Chen Sheng's coalition army was stunned, and even the reaction of Cao's army was sluggish for a moment.
"Huh? Gone, withdrawn. The Jingzhou army withdrew. ”
"Well, that's right, they're outdone."
"I'll just say it, Chen Sheng's Xiliang soldiers don't talk about it for the time being, this army of Jing and Chu, even if it is well-trained, has not experienced bloody battles, it is just a sick tiger, and there is nothing to be afraid of."
However, the Cao army also reacted quickly, and in a sudden shout, the Cao soldiers stepped forward and pursued.
"Kill."
The soldiers marched forward with their spears forward, intending to slaughter all sides.
"Stop, poor Kou Mo chase."
At this moment, Cao Ying suddenly shouted.
"Huh?"
Cao Jun's military discipline was strict, and after they heard Cao Ying's order, although they were puzzled, they still stopped and gave up the pursuit.
Cao Ren rode his horse and stood, slowly panting, fighting fiercely, even if he was full of energy, he also felt tired. After taking a moment of respite, Cao Ren thought about it.
On the contrary, Niu Jin looked at Chen Sheng, and the Jingzhou coalition army quickly withdrew, very unwilling. He rode his horse to Cao Ying's side, raised his fist and asked, "Ming Gong, then Chen Sheng is obviously defeated, why don't you pursue it?" ”
"Defeated? It looks like it's a failure, but who knows if it's a trap? You must know that there are 30,000 reinforcements in Jingzhou, even if their level is very low, if there is an ambush, it will be enough for us. Now that it is completely pointless to conquer Wancheng, there is no need to take such a risk again. Don't chase it. ”
Cao Ying expressed his worries, but he had a deep meaning, afraid that Chen Sheng would set a trap and lure them into pursuit.
"Hey."
Niu Jin was still quite unwilling when he heard this, and let out a sigh.
"Don't complain, this time we also won a small victory, which boosted our morale." At this time, Cao Ren rode a horse to the vicinity, and saw Niu Jin's face full of unwillingness, so he said with a smile.
"Yes, it thwarted Chen Sheng's pursuit and boosted morale." Hearing this, Cao Ying glanced around, although there was a bloody battle and the losses were not small, the morale of the soldiers was relatively high, and it was a TOEFL. Thinking about it, Cao Ying's face showed a slight smile.
"We repelled Chen Sheng, and Chen Sheng must go back to reorganize the troops and horses and appease the soldiers at this time. It's safe for now. Lone will go north first to join the Chinese army. After the break, the matter will be handed over to the two generals. ”
After a while, Cao Ying thought that the task of personally breaking off the queen had been completed, so he wanted to join the Chinese army. couldn't help but open his mouth to Cao Ren, Niu Jin said.
"Ming Gong (Meng De) rest assured, the matter will be handed over to us after the break." Niu Jin and Cao Ren responded solemnly when they heard this.
"Okay, I'll go." Cao Ying nodded, and Lerma went north. In addition to Cao Ying's departure, there were also 1,000 elite soldiers as accompanying escorts, and they left with Cao Ying.
But it was to thwart Chen Sheng's pursuit, and Cao Ying was very relieved.
Not only did Cao Ying rest assured, but Cao Ren and Niu Jin would not have thought that Chen Sheng was not just for a simple pursuit at the beginning, but he was to beat Cao Jun again.
There is still a killer feature to come.
Cao Ren didn't realize this, he glanced at the battlefield and found that although his soldiers were high morale and their expressions were very uplifted, there were also many wounded soldiers, who were wailing and moaning.
Cao Ren is undoubtedly the general of the Cao army, and every general is very good at raising soldiers, what does it mean to raise soldiers? It's very good to the soldiers, and to put it mildly, even if it's like a son.
This is the basic condition for becoming a general. Because of this, the soldiers will work hard for you, the general.
Cao Ren looked at the wounded soldiers who fell to the ground and wailed, and his first thought was to win people's hearts.
"It's safe for the time being, you can't abandon these wounded soldiers, even if you have broken hands and feet, or even if you are seriously injured, you have to bring them back to the Central Plains, otherwise it will make the soldiers feel cold."
Thinking about it, Cao Ren immediately ordered: "Order, order the soldiers to make a good unit price, no matter how serious the injuries are, as long as there is the slightest chance of healing, bring them back." Do not abandon any robes. ”
"No."
Cao Ren naturally has the existence of a herald beside him, and the herald is also an ordinary soldier, and his heart is close to the soldier. Looking at these wailing soldiers, they are also faintly compassionate, and they can't bear it.
And at this moment, after listening to Cao Ren's order not to abandon a robe, his heart suddenly perked, and a warm current emerged.
Therefore, this voice should be heard, and the herald should be particularly loud.
Soon after, the herald passed the order on.
Cao Ren's benevolent and righteous behavior immediately aroused the cheers of all Cao soldiers, and in the words of this era, it was the joy of the army.
"General Cao is really benevolent."
"The general is benevolent and righteous."
Many wounded soldiers were moved to tears. Suddenly, Cao Ren's prestige rose a lot. This is extremely beneficial to the commander of the army.
Feeling all this, Cao Ren smiled.
Soldiers are the foundation of a general, and if you don't forget to win people's hearts at any time, you can go to the battlefield at any time. Moreover, even if the war is defeated, it will not collapse.
On one side, Cao Ren was thinking about the way to general, and on the other side, many intact soldiers were responsible for making stretchers one by one, putting the injured soldiers on the stretchers, and preparing to get them back to the north.
Some of the lightly injured soldiers took care of their wounds and lined up.
Soon after, everything was ready, and Cao Ren, Niu Jin's army began to slowly move towards the north.
However, this army is different from what it was just now. Not only did they experience a bloody battle and the number of people was scarce, but Cao Ying and the Chinese army converged, and another thousand elite soldiers broke away from the broken army to protect Cao Ying.
In addition, the soldiers of this large army are not healthy soldiers, and there are many lightly wounded soldiers among them, and some seriously injured soldiers.
The lightly injured soldiers are just that, and the seriously injured soldiers lying on the stretcher seriously affect the performance of the entire army, and if it is attacked, the formation is not easy to put out.
In addition, this army of broken queens, because they repelled Chen Sheng's army once, was somewhat relaxed.
This is the most lethal factor, and this is also an opportunity for Chen Sheng.
It's different, the situation is different.
