Wang Xu's lips trembled, and from the faces of the three of them, he could already know the result.

There was a long silence in the tent, the flickering candlelight made a slight "crackling" sound, as if telling something, he wanted to speak several times, but he couldn't speak, he was afraid, afraid to know the answer, afraid to hear those names!

It's a pity that everyone can not face it, but he can't!

Eventually, he stood up, took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and spoke in a very heavy tone.

"Say it! How many high-ranking generals have been killed in battle, and you should know which part of the people I am referring to! ”

Xu Sheng, Wang Fei, and Wang Xiong looked at each other, and after eye contact, Xu Sheng stepped forward slightly, and arched his hand: "Lord, according to the order of death, the first Zhonglang general above the position is Yang Feng, the general of Diannong, followed by the Zhonglang generals Zhou Chao, Guo Shi, Xing Daorong, and then the partial generals Guan Hai, Zhonglang generals Cai He, Cai Zhong, and General Su Fei!" ”

When the words fell, Wang Xu's eyes darkened, and he fell directly over.

"Lord!"

"Third brother!"

"Brother!"

Xu Sheng, Wang Fei, and Wang Xiong hurriedly stepped forward to help.

Fortunately, Wang Xu's martial arts reached the peak, and the internal breath operated on its own at the critical moment, which made him sober, and he took two steps back, and finally stabilized and did not fall, and then waved his hand at the three of them. "Don't worry about me, I just ask, how many people are Cao Cao, how can it be so tragic!"

"Half of the main force of the Cao army at present, except for the main force stationed along the Yellow River and a small number of main troops and horses deployed in the Huai River, almost invaded the south with all its might." Xu Sheng finished speaking with certainty, and couldn't help but answer: "Lord, according to the analysis of Guo Jia and Xu Shu. The original intention was to take advantage of the absence of the lord. Defeat Jingzhou first. In preparation for the conquest of Hebei, which identified Jingzhou as the greatest threat. ”

"Cao Cao!" Wang Xu really didn't know what to say, his face changed, and his mood was very complicated, but in the end, he could only sigh lightly. "His intention has been realized, and today's Jingzhou, if there is no accident, can no longer go all out to the Northern Expedition!"

said. He didn't want to dwell on it anymore, after all, Cao Cao always fought for Jingzhou and for him, which was known to the world.

At the moment, he turned to ask: "Then Cao Cao mobilized such forces, and the general's palace did not report to Jiangdong and let them send troops to the Huai River to put pressure on him?" ”

"It's been passed on, but Jiangdong said that the south is not peaceful, and there are not enough troops and materials to go north." Xu Sheng replied.

"Humph!" Wang Xu snorted coldly and said lightly: "He has 80,000 people to send off his relatives, and he has no troops?" What a joke! Although its material accumulation is relatively scarce. It's true that you can't go north, but if you really have the heart. As long as troops are sent along the Huai River, Cao Cao will definitely not dare to invade so much. His actions were all because it was not beneficial for him to send troops, so he sat on the mountain and watched the tiger fight, and I am afraid that he would like Cao Cao to completely defeat the main force of Jingzhou. ”

"Yes, the Sun family is too cunning." Wang Xiong said angrily: "He just wants us to be defeated, and now when I return home, I am annoyed when I look at the daughter of the grandson family, I really want to beat her again, I knew this, I really shouldn't marry her." ”

"You hit her?" Wang Xu looked at it suddenly.

"That...... That doesn't! Wang Xiong was frightened by his eyes, and said unnaturally: "That, that is, the weather was urgent, and I slapped him." ”

"Bastard!" Wang Fei was one step ahead of Wang Xu, and reprimanded angrily: "Go back and apologize to her immediately, we can't control between you and those concubines, but he is marrying into the Wang family, which is the Wang family, and in the future, military affairs must not be connected with personal affairs." That is, thy wife, let one another respect and love one another, and leave a record with thee in the annals of history, and if she is a woman who has done her duty and is not at fault, thou shalt never act in vain again. ”

Wang Xu didn't want to explain too much about this matter at the moment, but just glanced at him coldly and scolded: "Go back and apologize immediately, and if you don't treat it well in the future, and discredit the Wang family, I will inform my father and deal with it according to family law." ”

Wang Xiong was most afraid of Wang Xu, so he suddenly felt excited, and hurriedly nodded and promised: "I didn't understand this before, and I will never do it again, treat her well." ”

"Humph!" Wang Xu was in a very bad mood, and he didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, so he looked at Xu Sheng: "Wen Xiang, since the battle of Nanyang is so huge, what are the results?" ”

Speaking of the results, Xu Sheng's face finally softened: "Lord, the Cao army was finally defeated and retreated, and the loss was comparable to that of my Jingzhou, maybe slightly larger." ”

Wang Xu shook his head: "The northern heritage is far stronger than ours, and the loss is considerable, which is equivalent to us losing."

As he spoke, his gaze turned again, and he said coldly: "Briefly talking about the process, I want to know how this battle was fought and why it is like this?" ”

Xu Sheng had already guessed that Wang Xu would ask this, so he was also a little prepared, and told the battle situation in 1510 at the moment.

"Lord, the Cao army sent a total of 300,000 troops, and the famous ministers and good generals will do their best, and attack Nanyang Wancheng with a three-way army."

"The left route is Xiahoudun as the commander, Le Jin and Cao Hong as the deputies, Cheng Yu and Man Chong as the strategists, and there are more than ten well-known generals."

"On the right side, Cao Ren is the commander, Yu Ban and Zhu Ling are the deputies, and Xun Yu personally accompanies this road."

"The middle road was personally led by Cao Cao, and Xi Zhicai and Xun You participated in the military, including Xu Chu, Zhang Ji, Zhang Xiu, Cao Ang, Cao Zhang, Cao Anmin, Cao Xiu, Cao Chun, Cao Zhen, Cai Yang, Li Tong and dozens of other generals."

"Our general's mansion is also full of main forces, with Zhao Yun, Zhang Liao, and Gao Shun as the commanders, Guo Junshi, Xu Junshi, and Tian Bei all went to meet the enemy in three ways, only the main mother and Fu Zhu, Fa Zheng and Wenchen stayed in Xiangyang."

"At first, the battle was stalemate, both sides had their own victories and defeats, and the casualties were not large, until General Zhao Yun was seriously wounded, which became a turning point in the complete chaos of the Battle of Nanyang, which led to the fact that both sides were uncontrollable later."

"Wait!" Wang Xu suddenly waved his hand and interrupted: "You said that Zhao Yun was seriously injured? How is it that as a manager, he is seriously injured? Besides, with his martial arts, if he hadn't been besieged or shot with random arrows, it would have been difficult for anyone to hurt him! ”

Xu Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "It stands to reason that this should be the case, but General Zhao Yun was injured by the enemy general in the process of breaking the rear. ”

"Wounded?" Wang Xu's face was full of disbelief. "Xiahoudun? Cao Ren? Xu Chu? Even these people will definitely not be able to hurt Zhao Yun! ”

"It's not one, it's a group! In the same way, it was not they who injured Zilong. Xu Sheng shook his head.

"That's?" Wang Xu was puzzled.

"It's Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhang Fei, to be precise, they were besieged and killed!" Xu Sheng said.

"Liu, Guan, Zhang?" Wang Xu's eyes jumped, and he suddenly remembered that after Lu Bu seized Liu Bei's Xuzhou, the three of them did take refuge in Cao Cao.

Originally, in history, when Cao Cao first crusaded against Yuan Shu, he failed to completely annihilate it, but only broke its main force, and after defeating Xuzhou Lu Bu and taking Che Xuan as the assassin of Xuzhou, he once again ordered people to go south to conquer the remnants of Yuan Shu.

At this time, Liu Bei finally got the opportunity and took the initiative to ask Cao Cao to go south to ask Yuan, because he was still doing his best in the process of conquering Lu Bu, so Cao Cao still believed him at that time and asked him to lead his troops to the south.

But what kind of person is Liu Bei, when he passed through Xuzhou, he decisively killed the chariot that entertained him at the banquet, summoned the old department of Xuzhou, and once again controlled Xuzhou.

At that time, Guo Jia and others had already admonished Cao Cao, saying that he should not let Liu Bei lead the army alone, and after Cao Cao had an epiphany, he regretted it too late and sent someone to chase him, but it was too late.

It is precisely for this reason that the decisive battle between Cao and Yuan was postponed for more than a year, and Cao Cao went north to resist the enemy after completely defeating Liu Bei.

But now, history has changed, Sun Jian is not dead, and he also quickly rose to Jiangdong, although late, but also caught up with the shape of the shì, so that he can preempt Cao Cao and quickly seize the land of Huainan, that is, he gave Yuan Shu a fatal blow and took the northern part of Yangzhou for himself.

In this way, Liu Bei had no chance to go on the expedition, and he had no chance to return to Xuzhou to convene the old department, so he could only lurk.

If it is according to Liu Bei's strategy in history, then when Cao Cao conquered Jingzhou, he did his best, it was inevitable, because he wanted to gain Cao Cao's trust and find a good time to take enough soldiers and horses from him to rise again.

Thinking of this, Wang Xu was also quite helpless, so he could only wave his hand and say, "Wen Xiang, go on." ”

"No!" Xu Sheng nodded, and then said: "Lord, in fact, that battle was very coincidental, General Zhao was ordered by Guo Junshi earlier to send 5,000 soldiers to attack the grain points in the rear of Cao's army, which was fully planned, and it can be said to be a clever strategy." ”

Speaking of this, Xu Sheng had a look of guilt on his face. "Moreover, he originally intended to send me there, but before leaving, General Zhao suddenly said that the matter was very important, and he felt that the shape was not very good at that time, and there might be danger, so he had to go in person. Now that I think about it, General Zhao is still in such a miserable situation when he goes, if I go, I am afraid it will be difficult to survive. ”

"Hmm!" Wang Xu nodded: "What about later?" How could you fall into a siege, could it be that the other party saw through it? ”

"No, Guo Junshi and Xu Junshi are scrutinizing this, and there are several other soldiers and horses to cover up, which is so easy to be recognized, it's a complete coincidence!" Xu Sheng said with a strange expression: "Because no one expected that the soldiers and horses on the left side of the Cao army would be like a ghost, and they just moved in a large area, which means that Cao Cao wants to change his strategy, combine the left and middle lanes into an army, and gather superior forces." And the route of its transfer happened to pass through the route we went to pick up the grain. ”

"General Zhao successfully burned down the enemy's grain store, and was found by a large number of scouts on the way back, and was immediately surrounded and intercepted by countless Cao troops, first with Xiahoudun, Lejin, Cao Hong and other manpower battles, and finally got rid of it, but was intercepted by Liu, Guan, and Zhang San, who copied the road, and General Zhao was exhausted and almost died."

"Fortunately, when the Cao army moved on the left side, our spies also quickly reported the news to Guo Junshi, Guo Junshi was shocked, and urgently mobilized 10,000 cavalry in the middle to rush to the rescue, Xu Huang, Huang Zhong, Wen Ping three generals arrived in time, General Huang used his unique golden arrow, from Guan Yu's knife to save General Zhao."

"Although the person was rescued, General Zhao was seriously injured and unconscious, and at the same time, because of this coincidence, which exceeded the expectations of the two parties, the director then underwent an unpredictable drastic change!"
