After carefully searching the entire valley, Zhang Liao didn't find anything useful, so he immediately took people out of the valley to go to Lu Bu. Lu Bu saw that Zhang Liao had gained nothing, and he didn't even bring down a single wounded soldier for himself, which made Lu Bu angry. There was no need for Zhang Liao to say anything, but looking at Zhang Liao's gloomy face, Lu Bu learned the result he wanted to know.

It is not at all worse than he expected, and his 5,000 soldiers are probably more than lucky. Faced with such a result, Lu Bu was full of remorse. Knowing this, he shouldn't have agreed to Chen Gong's plan in the first place. In this expedition, he not only lost elite soldiers, but also lost a lot of grain and grass.

This battle can be said to have lost his wife and soldiers, not only Liu Bei is still alive and well in Xiaopei, but he also lost three-quarters of the elite soldiers. And if it weren't for Zhang Liao's timely arrival, I am afraid that he would have fallen into the hands of the enemy. Let himself be such a wolf, it is all because of Chen Gong, if it wasn't for him encouraging himself to crusade against Liu Bei of Xiaopei, how could he suffer such a shame. It was precisely because of this that Lu Bu had a trace of distrust in Chen Gong.

"Let's go, the whole army will return to the city." Lu Bu looked at Zhang Liao and said in a deep voice, and then rode towards Xuzhou. And Zhang Liao didn't say a word, turned over and got on the horse, and then followed Lu Bu towards Xuzhou.

"Gongxiao, there aren't many reinforcements in Lu Bu, why don't you eat Lu Bu's reinforcements and then take Lu Bu?" Cao Chun said to Gao Shun with a dissatisfied face, it was obvious that Cao Chun felt very dissatisfied with Gao Shun's order to form an army. What an elite the White Tiger Battalion is, it would retreat without a fight, and Cao Chun is somewhat unacceptable to this.

Gao Shun turned his head to look at Cao Chun, who was chattering with him, and then shook his head helplessly. Since he was sure that Lu Bu was not chasing him, Cao Chun began to complain more than once around him. For this old guy of his own, Gao Shun has no way at all. Because Gao Shun is a man who admits death. As for the explanation of his tirade, he always listens to the left ear and the right ear comes out, so he ignores how he explains it.

Therefore, in the face of Cao Chun's chatter, Gao Shun automatically chose to ignore it. And Cao Chun saw that Gao Shun had been ignoring himself, and he often kept his mouth shut. Today, however, it has not worked. Cao Chun didn't know what he was crazy about today, and he kept complaining about it, which made Gao Shun very angry.

"That's it!" Gao Shun roared angrily, because he really couldn't stand Cao Chun's chatter. And Cao Chun obviously realized that the old man seemed to be really a little annoyed, and finally shut up. However, looking at his angry expression, he was obviously very dissatisfied.

The ears finally quieted, and Gao Shun finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Just when the two of them were silent, Xu Chu rode a black horse to the two of them. Seeing that Cao Chun and Gao Shun were silent, Xu Chu smiled slightly and then said, "Zi and Gongxiao, what's wrong with you two today." In the past, I didn't talk about the world and talked about it happily. ”

Hearing Xu Chu's words, Gao Shun glanced at Cao Chun, then turned his head over with a cold snort. Seeing Gao Shun's expression, Xu Chu smiled softly. Then he opened his mouth and asked, "Zihe, what's going on with Gongxiao?" ”

After looking at Gao Shun, Cao Chun told Xu Chu what had just happened. Xu Chu frowned after hearing this, and then said, "Gongxiao, you don't need to blame yourself. What Zihe did was also for the sake of war, so don't be rash. Xu Chu's tone was quite heavy and profound. Obviously, he didn't want Gao Shun to be depressed because of this.

Hearing this, Gao Shun looked up at a few people, and then said: "Shun naturally knows about this matter, but Shun's heart is very unfair. Since the soldiers of the Lu Bu army abandoned their weapons and surrendered, it proves that they want to live, but we have killed all their little wrongs, how cruel it is. Even if they are enemy troops. But they are still human beings, and when they take off their armor and put down their weapons, they are all sons of their parents, fathers of their children. ”

Gao Shun's expression was very lonely and very unenergetic. And Gao Shun's words obviously also poked at the weakness of Cao Chun and Xu Chu. Both of them are people who love soldiers like children. Especially Xu Chu, he regarded every soldier in the Qinglong Battalion as his own brother. So Gao Shun's words made Xu Chu very touched. He sighed in his heart that if this matter was really put on him, he would not be so resolute and decisive.

But after thinking about it for a long time, Xu Chu finally shook his head helplessly. Put this matter on yourself, and you will never do such a thing. Although Xu Chu was extremely brave and killed countless enemies on the battlefield, he would never have decided to raise his butcher's knife against the prisoner who had laid down his weapon, unless it was really ordered by someone.

And Cao Chun looked at Gao Shun with strange eyes, because he didn't expect Gao Shun to say this, which also made Cao Chun have to look at his old buddy differently. But having said that, Cao Chun will still do it. He will not change his mind because of the opinions of others, nor will he let himself lose the greatest result because of the kindness of other people's women. Wars are often the most brutal, and if he can't bear the cruelty of war, then he is not a qualified general.

I can only blame this helpless troubled world, if it weren't for this troubled world, I am afraid that I am also enjoying this pastoral life, doing this happy life that reflects the twilight.

"What should I do next? Will you continue to stay in Xuzhou, or will you lead the army back to Xuchang? Staggering the heavy topic just now, Xu Chu said to Gao Shun. For Gao Shun's resourcefulness, Xu Chu still admires it a little.

Gao Shun pondered for a moment, and then said: "Lu Bu returned to Xuzhou, and we have no chance. Moreover, Lu Bu was ambushed by us and others, so he must be cautious, so instead of staying in Xuzhou any longer, it is better to return to Yanzhou to recuperate. ”

Xu Chu thought for a moment, then nodded. They are now close to Yanzhou, so it doesn't matter if they withdraw to Yanzhou. And the task given to everyone by the gentleman has also been overfulfilled, so it doesn't matter if the army is withdrawn.

Since Xu Chu and Gao Shun both agreed to withdraw their troops, Cao Chun didn't say anything, and withdrew towards Xuchang with the two of them.

The water outside is hot, but Yanzhou is very calm, after all, Yanzhou is not enough grain and grass, so it has no ability to launch a large-scale war, so the whole Yanzhou is in the process of prosperity and development.

Since there was no war, Du Chen, the captain, was naturally bored. So after Du Chen was busy for a few days, the lazy worms in his heart began to flood again. However, being the shopkeeper again made him feel a little sorry for Jia Xu, so he could only hide his lazy thoughts in his heart.

However, as Xiao Pei's battle calmed down, the huge Taiwei Mansion became a little deserted for a while. Although there are many generals in the entire Yanzhou, not everything has to be evaluated by the Taiwei Mansion, and the Taiwei Mansion is full of talents at this time, so not everything needs to be done by everyone. So under this premise, Du Chen and several of his cronies became somewhat idle.

Of course, if you are bored, you need to find things, but in Du Chen's view, there are few things in the late Han Dynasty that can attract his attention. After all, the end of the Han Dynasty was very boring, and there was nothing interesting for Du Chen to do all the time.

Of course, this matter is not difficult for Du Chen, after all, he has two thousand years of knowledge, and you must know that after two thousand years, there will be a lot of entertainment facilities. However, due to limited conditions, Du Chen could only order the craftsman to make a pair of mahjong.

Originally, Du Chen wanted to make cards, after all, there would be more ways to play cards, but having said that, but helplessly, there was no cardboard at the end of the Han Dynasty. And Du Chen can't find it, what can be compared to cardboard, so this plan can only be stranded. However, although the plan for solitaire has been put on hold for the time being, mahjong can be carved in a short time. Moreover, mahjong is relatively easy to choose materials, even if it is a stone, it will not image its playability. Also, Yanzhou is not short of skilled craftsmen, although Du Chen's requirements are very harsh and tricky, but in the hands of ingenious craftsmen, Du Chen's requirements have been satisfactorily completed.
