Troubled Times Begin Chapter 241 Battle Damage
When the order was issued, the Jiangdong Army, which had maintained the offensive before, immediately showed the quality of elite soldiers and began to retreat in an orderly manner, and Lu An himself slowly retreated to join Guo Jia.
"As the old saying goes, the battle array is dueling, one is vigorous, two and decline, three is exhausted, we have experienced a big defeat before, although the lord used his own prestige to forcibly raise the morale of the soldiers to return back, but the soldiers are too tired to run back and forth after all, at this time, since we have rescued General Gan, we should also accept it when we see it, otherwise I am afraid that the physical strength of the soldiers will be unbearable!" As soon as the two met, without waiting for Lu An to ask, Guo Jia took the initiative to explain.
"You're right, I was negligent!" Lu An looked at the soldiers around him, and saw that although they were indeed quite tall, most of them could not hide the tiredness on their faces, so he nodded lightly. Guo Jia is right, if the battle continues, these soldiers on the side are afraid that it will be difficult to continue, and retreating is really the best policy.
"How could this Lu Xuantong retreat at this time?" Cai Mao watched the enemy army come back regardless of the situation, and now retreated inexplicably after finally gaining the upper hand, it was really difficult to understand the other party's actions. In fact, it was not only him, but also Wen Ping, Kuai Yue, Zhang Yun and others on the side were also confused, and they couldn't see through the other party's movements.
"Because their soldiers' combat strength is almost unable to keep up, retreating at this time is the best strategy for them!" Pang Tong watched all this from the side and said softly.
"I'm afraid this statement is inaccurate, I think the army on the other side is still very combative!" Cai Mao looked carefully into the distance and shook her head slightly.
"High morale does not mean high combat power, they were defeated and fled first, although they were inspired by Lu Xuantong and killed back, but two round-trips are very mental and physical consumption for the soldiers, Lu Xuantong knows this, so he naturally accepts it when he sees it!" Zhuge Liang also opened his mouth to explain at this time.
"I see, this Lu Xuantong is really good at seizing the opportunity, but he suddenly retreated when he attacked in a big way, and now it's too late for me to pursue it!" Cai Mao and the others nodded, and then they felt a little regretful. Because of the opponent's strong offensive, the soldiers have all turned to a defensive state, and now it is too late to pursue.
"Not necessarily!" Zhuge Liang suddenly smiled slightly, and then the white feather fan in his hand was raised high, and the colorful spiritual light of the Dao Dao spewed out like a spring, and finally soared into the sky.
"The wind rises!"
With Zhuge Liang's soft drink, a strong south wind suddenly blew in the originally calm waters, blowing people's eyes a little unable to open, and the first to bear the brunt were those Jiangdong Army sergeants who wanted to retreat to the south, and the strong headwind immediately caused the speed of the Jiangdong building ship to drop a lot.
"Order, all soldiers start pursuing!" Seeing that his spell had worked, Zhuge Liang had a sneer on his face, and immediately ordered all Jingzhou military ships to prepare for the march.
"How can there be an extra wind for no reason!" The officers and men of the Jiangdong Army, who felt the sharp drop in the speed of the ship, could not be calm, and such a strong wind blowing down not only brought a great burden to the soldiers in charge of stepping on the boat, but also feared that the other party would take the opportunity to catch up.
"It's really sticky!" Compared with the noise of ordinary soldiers, Lu An, who was in charge of the Chinese army, and the generals under his command frowned. This kind of weather will not suddenly blow such a strong wind, it is obviously a spell performed by the other party's masters, but I don't know if it was Wolong or Phoenix Chick.
"Pardon, stop!" Seeing that the gale had brought great distress and crisis to the soldiers who had already been on the side, Guo Jia ignored his pale face that had become pale due to the overdraft of his spiritual power, and once again pinched out a spell and used the Qiqi Feather Fan as a catalyst to cast it.
"The wind has stopped, the wind has stopped!" With Guo Jia's movements, the south wind that had blown for no reason immediately calmed down and disappeared without a trace, such a turn made the soldiers of the Jiangdong Army cheer and shout, as long as there is no strong wind, the enemy behind them will not be able to catch up with them, and they will be completely safe.
"Bonghyo, thanks to you!" The wind dissipated, Lu An naturally knew whose credit was for all this, he glanced at Guo Jia, his expression was full of admiration. But as soon as he finished speaking, Guo Jia on the side suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground softly.
"Bonghyo?" Lu An's face changed, and he quickly helped him up and shouted worriedly.
"Strategist?" Seeing Guo Jia falling, all the generals around him also surrounded him, as the first mastermind of Jiangdong, Guo Jia obviously has a very lofty position among everyone.
"The consumption is too great, and the body is a little overwhelmed!" Although Guo Jia's face was as white as gold paper at the moment, he still forcibly showed a smile.
"Medic, call the Medicorder!" Seeing Guo Jia weak like this for the first time, Lu An lost his way at the moment, and shouted at the generals around him.
"It's coming, it's coming!" After a short time, the medical officer who accompanied the army was sweating profusely and was urgently invited by everyone.
"Hurry up and show the military advisor if there is any serious problem!" Lu An hurriedly made room for him and said hurriedly.
The medical officer didn't dare to slack off, put his hand on Guo Jia's wrist and checked the lower pulse, then frowned and said: "Mr. Guo Jia, this is because of the continuous use of spells, which has caused the body to be overdrawn, and the five organs are damaged, plus Mr. Guo Jia's body has not been very strong, so his body is extremely weak now!" ”
"Is there a danger to life?" Lu An asked.
"That's not true, but Mr. Fengxiao needs to recuperate within half a year, and he must avoid alcohol, women, and meat, and he will be cured by taking more supplements!"
"Huh?" When Guo Jia heard this, his face immediately became bitter, and he avoided meat, fish, women, and alcohol, and all the joy of life was immediately deprived.
"When do you still want that?" Lu An breathed a sigh of relief, complained to Guo Jia angrily, and then called the soldiers and ordered: "Hurry up and take the military division down to rest, send more people to protect the safety of the military division at all times, and definitely don't let the military division drink again, otherwise I will ask you questions." ”
"Yes!" The sergeants responded respectfully, then found a stretcher and carried Guo Jia down to rest.
"Wolong, phoenix, I remember you!" The crisis of the army was lifted, Lu An had the leisure to look at the enemy army that was getting farther and farther away, his expression was full of coldness, this was the first time in his life that he had suffered such a fiasco, in addition to achieving the name of the other party, it brought him a bloody shame, and he will remember it forever.

In fact, at this moment, Zhuge Liang on the other side was also depressed, watching the south wind dissipate and the enemy's ships retreated, his face lost that indifferent look for the first time, but changed and changed, and finally let out a long breath and said: "Guo Fengxiao, a ghost in the world!" ”
"Little brother Zhuge Liang, you have performed perfectly, and now that we have won a big victory, don't take these little things to heart!" Cai Mao saw that Zhuge Liang looked bad, but she came over very softly and patted him on the shoulder and comforted him.
"I know, thank you for your concern, I'm not feeling well now, I'll go back and rest first!" Zhuge Liang showed a reluctant smile on his face, arched his hand towards everyone, and turned around and walked into the cabin.
"Little brother Zhuge Liang seems to regret that he couldn't chase the other party before!" When the generals on the side saw Zhuge Liang, they all thought that Zhuge Liang was still relatively entangled and failed to pursue the Jiangdong Army, and there were some discussions.
Among the crowd, Pang Tong had a strange light flashing in his eyes, only he knew what Zhuge Liang was thinking, what a pursuit battle was, he didn't care about it at all for his junior brother, what the other party really cared about was that the spell he performed himself was cracked by that Guo Fengxiao, which was unacceptable to his junior brother who seemed to be indifferent but was actually more arrogant than anyone else.
"Guo Fengxiao, but he is a top person, and I don't know if there is a chance to fight you alone!" Looking at the rolling river under the boat, Pang Tong muttered a sentence. Being able to break the spell of his junior brother Zhuge Liang actually explains a lot of things, but as an unborn genius, how can he admit defeat, whether it is him or his junior brother Zhuge Liang, he must find another chance to defeat this ghost, this is the greatest meaning in life.

With the rest of his army, Lu An returned to the camp, and it didn't take long for the captain to report the casualties this time, today's battle, more than 30,000 people died, and only 20,000 of the corpses of the brothers could be found, and the others were either left on the other party's boat or fell into the river to feed the fish, and there were 20,000 wounded soldiers, of which more than 4,000 people were already left with a breath, and the rest were of varying severity, and the medical officer was doing his best to rescue them.
Such a result was reported, whether it was Lu An himself or the generals in the audience, their faces were full of heavy colors, nearly 160,000 fought more than 80,000 people (Liu Biaojun died more than 10,000 in the first day of the battle), and the side actually lost almost 40,000, and although the other party's casualties are not known, it is estimated that there are at most 20,000, when did their Jiangdong Army have such a painful defeat, this is definitely the heaviest blow that the Jiangdong Army has ever suffered.
"You're all tired today, go down and get some rest!" As soon as the battle damage came out, the atmosphere in the camp became very depressing, and it took a long time for Lu An to say something softly in a dumb voice.
"Lord!" The generals in the audience couldn't help but shout with some concern. They know that in the current situation, the saddest thing is definitely Lu An himself, since his father-in-law's debut, he has won all battles and is admired by the world, but he didn't expect to be hit by Waterloo when he beat a small Cai Mao, this sense of blow is absolutely fatal.
"I'm fine, you guys go!" Lu An smiled slightly and waved at everyone.
"I'll retire!" When the generals saw this, they couldn't say anything, so they retreated one by one.
"Bang bang bang!"
When all the generals came out, they immediately heard the loud sound of heavy objects smashing the ground from the tent, and everyone looked at each other, all of them smiling bitterly.
