The iron cavalry rushed into the Nanyang army, and the Nanyang army was swept to pieces in an instant! The officers and men of the Nanyang Army fled in all directions, falling one after another under the surging iron hooves, unable to resist. Guan Yu desperately rushed to break out of the encirclement, and came to the gate of Fancheng in a hurry. At this time, there were less than a hundred soldiers following Guan Yu, and the surging sound of iron hooves behind him was approaching, and it seemed that infinite people and horses were surging in the moonlight!

"Open the gates!" Guan Ping shouted.

A row of torches suddenly lit up on the tower of the city gate, and at the same time, the banner of Lu Zi was erected.

Guan Yu and the others changed color in shock, completely at a loss.

"Shoot the arrows!" There was a loud shout from the gate tower, and arrows rained down, knocking over several cavalrymen. Guan Yu hurriedly led the people to the east and fled in a hurry.

Completely defeated Guan Yu, Ma Chao immediately led the cavalry across the Xiangjiang River, rushed to the battlefield on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River, and suddenly launched a fierce attack on Liu Bei's main force. Tens of thousands of cavalry attacked Lang tide after Lang, and the defense line of more than 100,000 Jingzhou troops was in danger, but fortunately, Xu Shu had made complete preparations before, and even so, the battle situation was quite shocking.

Zhang Lang saw that the enemy army was well prepared and Ma Chao was unable to break through, so he ordered Ma Chao's army to temporarily stop the attack.

Liu Bei was shocked by Ma Chao's sudden appearance here, and asked Xu Shu: "Yuan Zhi, why did Ma Chao appear here?" Xu Shu frowned and sighed, "Looking at the current situation, Yun Chang is only afraid of more evil and less auspicious!" This place should not be left for long, and it should be withdrawn into the city immediately! ”

Liu Bei was uneasy, and commanded the retreats of the armies in a strong fighting spirit, the retreat was very slow, and the armies were slowly retreating in battle formation, and once the Lu Bu army pounced, they could immediately enter the battle. Until the end, Lü Bu's army did not attack again, and Liu Bei's army retreated into Jingzhou. As soon as he entered Jingzhou, Liu Bei couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then he was worried about Guan Yu and Nanyang, so he immediately sent a large number of scouts out of the city to investigate the situation. It soon paid off, but Liu Bei almost fainted on the spot when he heard the news that Fancheng Nanyang had fallen and Guan Yu Mifang's whereabouts were unknown.

sat down on the ground in a daze, revealing a look of confusion, and the good situation that he had finally obtained took a sharp turn for the worse in an instant! glanced up at Xu Shu, and said with a look of regret: "I regret not listening to the military advisor!" Ay! Xu Shu sighed, "The lord doesn't need to be too sad, our army has not lost the possibility of turning the tables!" After all, Jingzhou is still in our hands, Xiangyang is still in our hands, and there is still a lot of money and grain to pay taxes, nearly 200,000 soldiers! From today onwards, hold on to the city and wait for the times to change! Liu Bei nodded heavily, "Listen to the military advisor!" ”

The group was afraid of the pursuers, did not dare to stay, ran wild all night, and in the early morning of the next day, when they came to a small stream, the men and horses were already tired. Everyone turned over and dismounted, and ran into the stream with rolling belts, burying their heads in the water and swallowing the cows and drinking, and everyone had a feeling of happiness in their hearts.

Dadada! Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves came from the woods on the north side! The people who were drinking water were shocked, and hurriedly picked up their weapons and prepared for battle. A moment later, a large group of wolf-looking people poured out, and they were all taken aback when they saw Guan Yu and his party, and hurriedly sent out their weapons.

"Cloud Chief! Cloud Chief! ......" a man in the general's armor but helmet, but who had nowhere to go, shouted and ran out. Guan Yu saw the person coming clearly, and was stunned, "Mi Fang!?" ”

Mi Fang ran to Guan Yu, knelt down with a plop, and cried: "Nanyang is lost!" My army is all over! ”

Guan Yu lifted him up and asked angrily, "What's going on?" Why was the reinforcement I was waiting for last night actually Ma Chao's assault horse? ”

Mi Fang said with palpitations: "Last night, I led more than 20,000 soldiers to arrive in Fancheng, and I don't want to be suddenly besieged by Ma Chao's sudden cavalry!" On the field, our army was caught off guard, and the iron cavalry rushed in, and it was impossible to resist it at all! Soon it collapsed! ”

Guan Yu was angry and regretful, threw away Mi Fang, and slapped the big camphor tree next to him, "Hey! ”

Mi Fang stepped forward, clenched his fists and asked, "Yun Chang, what should we do now?" Guan Yu sighed, "What else can I do?" Go back to Jingzhou and ask your brother for guilt! Mi Fang looked worried and afraid.

After Liu Beijun retreated, Zhang Lang ordered Ma Chaoshuai to retreat across the Xiangjiang River and enter Fancheng and Nanyang, while he commanded 10,000 horsemen to return to the camp on the south bank of the Xiangjiang River, and formed a rivalry with Fancheng on the north bank.

After a busy night, it was almost dawn when Zhang Lang returned to the big tent. He exhaled a long breath, put down Fang Tian's painting halberd, took off his battle robe, and took off his armor and clothes, revealing a man's body like steel poured iron. It was very comfortable to get into a large basin of hot water that the soldiers had prepared a long time ago, and soak in the bath. Zhang Lang let out a long breath and closed his eyes to recuperate.

There was a bang, the sound of water sounded, and Zhang Lang opened his eyes. I saw a female body drill in, with a delicate face. Zhang Lang was stunned, "Mrs. Cai!?" She swam into Zhang Lang's arms and said in a hoarse voice: "Don't call me Mrs. Cai!" Raising his head, he looked into Lang's eyes, "My name is Mei'er." Zhang Lang smiled, picked up her flawless jaw with his fingers, and teased: "This name is good!" People are as their name suggests, they are so charming! Mrs. Cai giggled, leaned back, revealing her proud body, her beautiful eyes were charming, and she glanced at Lang. Zhang Lang laughed evilly, "What a **!" I'll make it happen to you! Then he pounced, the water rattled, the lights flickered, and the guards outside ran away.

……

The sun is rising, but Zhang Lang is still in the lingering gentle countryside. woke up, glanced at the mature, charming and tired Mrs. Cai in her arms, thought of the absurdity of last night, and shook her head with a wry smile. Gently moved Mrs. Cai, who was still asleep, out of the couch, bypassed the screen, and came to the desk. With a big yawn, he picked up the report on the desk that seemed to be new, sat down, and read it again. The corners of his mouth twitched, "Sun Jian, how can you find the time!" It's just that Xiangyang is afraid that it is not so easy to take down! Standing up and walking out of the big tent, the bright sunlight shone on his eyes, making Zhang Lang squint. lowered his head and said to the guards on the side: "Call Mr. Kong Ming to me!" The guard said yes and left.

Zhang Lang returned to the big tent and sat down, picked up the report and looked at it, with a thoughtful look on his face.

After a while, Zhuge Liang came in, smiled and hugged his fists and said, "I didn't expect the general to get up so early!" ”

Zhang Lang laughed, "I have such a stinky problem!" ”

Zhuge Liang smiled: "Fair lady, good gentleman." This is also human nature. The subordinates absolutely believe that the general will be able to grasp the proportions! Zhang Lang smiled slightly. Shaking the report in his hand, "You sent this report?" ”
