Cao Cao has withdrawn!

Very suddenly, without any warning, Cao Cao retreated. In the early morning of the next day, when Liu Bei found out, Cao Cao's army had almost arrived in Xiangyi, and it was no longer possible to pursue him.

Looking at the two empty camps left by Cao Cao, Liu Bei felt lost in his heart! He didn't know whether to be happy or sad, Cao Cao had withdrawn from the army, he should be happy, but he couldn't be happy.

At the beginning of the war, the strategic goal set by Liu Ye, Lu Su, and Tian Fan was to rely on the city wall to consume the enemy's vital forces, and then reverse the situation of strength and weakness. But Cao Cao's strength was only weakened, far from the extent of breaking his muscles and bones, which made Liu Bei somewhat unacceptable. But the matter has come to this, Liu Bei has to accept it if he doesn't accept it, he doesn't have any choice.

On the same day, Liu Bei received a message from Guan Yu, and Yuan Shu also began to retreat.

Yuan Shu's withdrawal from the army was not sudden. Because Tian Fan had already passed on his plan to Guan Yu, this move to encircle Wei to save Zhao Zhengzhong and Yuan Shu's weakness, he had to retreat. However, Yuan Shu's retreat methods were quite clever, and several armies did not panic at all, and retreated in an orderly and alternate manner, and there was no chaos that is easy to occur during a large-scale retreat. Guan Yu forcibly attacked several times, but only increased the casualties in vain, without any substantial progress. As a last resort, after Guan Yu discussed with Zhang Liao and Chen Deng, he could only accept the result unwillingly.

After Yuan Shu's remaining more than 60,000 troops crossed the river, Tian Fan's more than 10,000 troops surrounding Shouchun immediately retreated in panic, and even Tian Fan's banner was left behind, and it was too late to take it away. At that moment, Yuan Shu suddenly regained the self-confidence he had lost, and he was even more confident than before!

That's Tian Fan! 25,000 soldiers almost wiped out Yuan Tan's 80,000 army, 17,000 defeated 30,000 Qiaorui, after two beautiful battles, although Tian Fan is not a pure general, but in the hearts of many people, he is already a terrible opponent. Yuan Shu was proud in his heart, hehe, what about Tian Fan, as soon as I came, he immediately fled in a panic, and even ignored the banner, which shows that he is afraid of me!

Yuan Shu regained his self-confidence, and Tian Fan also regained his confidence. Mr. Wen, as an internal response, is not afraid that Yuan Shu will not perish, and he is not afraid that Xuzhou will not be able to break the situation and soar to the sky!

On the 26th of the lunar month, Tian Fan withdrew to Xiapi. Prior to this, the generals of the remaining three routes, according to Liu Bei's order, had already withdrawn to Xiapi and prepared to participate in the celebration banquet. For a time, the camp in Xiapi was overcrowded, and the stars were shining!

Liu Bei finally recovered from his frustration and unwillingness, because, as soon as he settled the accounts, he found that although the war did not achieve the strategic goals set at the beginning, in fact, Xuzhou did not lose money, but made money!

Tian Fan lost less than 15,000 men along the way, but captured nearly 50,000 prisoners, of which 30,000 were strong and strong, and with a little training, they could become an army. And with the general Koji Yi and the complete first camp, these 800 people are up to 10,000 people. The South Road is even more profitable, with the water army, a total of 6,000 people were lost, but 30,000 prisoners were captured, although these prisoners were all people, but 20,000 of them were Danyang people, after training, it was a Danyang pawn.

In the other two roads, Liu Bei lost less than 6,000 all the way, and Guan Yu lost less than 8,000 all the way. Calculated together, the losses of the Xuzhou army were not large, but in terms of soldiers, they were earned. The loss is nothing more than some food and money. And food and money are the richest and most lacking things in Xuzhou!

And that's just what happened in the recent past. Next, the fact that one family in Xuzhou wins four will go viral in the world, and Xuzhou will become famous in a fight, and people of insight in the world will inevitably rush to Xuzhou. At that time, even if it faced the attack of the princes of the four roads again, Xuzhou was not afraid.

Tian Fan meticulously arranged the soldiers, set up camp, discussed with the rest of the generals the specific location of his army, discussed the specific distribution of the baggage with the person in charge of the baggage battalion, discussed the placement of wounded soldiers with the medical battalion, and so on, until all the soldiers had begun to eat, Liu Bei had already sent six waves of people to urge, and he rushed to the Xiapi General's Mansion with the main generals in the army! …,

Unconsciously, Tian Fan has begun to demand himself according to the actions of a general, and this time the generals who followed him on the expedition saw it, and they were secretly happy in their hearts. It is very comfortable to fight with Tian Fan, the soldiers' losses are small, and the achievements are still great, of course they want Tian Fan to be a general and their boss.

When Tian Fan rushed to the General's Mansion with everyone, he found that Liu Bei and other major officials in Xuzhou were waiting at the door. Looking at their appearance, I have to wait to see through the autumn water.

Tian Fan hurriedly led the generals to dismount, saluted first, and shouted: "Whoever visits the lord, waits for the lord for a long time, and all sins are also!" ”

Behind him, Lu Bu, Lu Yi, Pang De, Wei Yan, Hao Zhao, Cao Xing, Cheng Lian, and Guan Ping saluted at the same time, shouting, "I'll wait to meet the lord!" ”

Liu Bei took a few steps down from the steps and said in a loud voice: "Everyone is my great hero in Xuzhou, please get up quickly!" ”

Everyone said in unison: "Thank you, lord!" ”

Liu Bei came to the front, grabbed Tian Fan, looked up and down a few times, and smiled to the people gathered around him: "Hahahaha, our Boguang is thin and dark, but it is stronger and more strong!" Well, this kind of appearance is worthy of the nickname of General White Tiger! Okay, Boguang, please get up. ”

Hearing him say this, Tian Fan was slightly stunned, and said strangely: "Lord, what's the matter with this White Tiger General?" ”

Liu Bei laughed and said, "Boguang, you should ask the third brother about this matter!" He said that you fought beautifully this time, you can be called a famous general, and you have a white tiger at home, so he gave you the nickname of 'White Tiger General'! ”

Tian Fan looked at Zhang Fei unexpectedly, Zhang Fei laughed, squeezed his eyebrows at Tian Fan, but he didn't speak!

Tian Fan shrugged indifferently and said, "I like this name." Oh, by the way......" He pulled Koji Yi over on the side and introduced Liu Bei: "Lord, this person is the famous general Koji Yi!" He understood the righteousness, defected to the lord, and in our battle with Qiaorui, with his subordinate Xiandeng as the main force, defeated the 4,000 cavalry of Yuan Shu's general Zhang Xun, and made great contributions! ”

Liu Bei hurriedly came to Liyi's side, and Liyi was busy saluting and shouting: "I've seen the lord!" ”

Liu Bei hurriedly helped him up, looked up and down a few times, nodded again and again, and had an infinite affection for this eight-foot man in his heart, and applauded again and again, and said: "General Koji, please get up quickly, the general abandons the darkness and turns to the light, which is really the blessing of my Xuzhou!" In the future, we will have to pay more attention to our affairs in Xuzhou! Well, let's do it, in the Xiapi camp, there are too many troops, and they are all new soldiers, you temporarily help General Zhengqing train new soldiers, and when there is a war in the future, I will let you lead an army alone! ”

Koji Yi's heart warmed when he heard this, and he hurriedly said: "Yi was originally an enemy general, but he was captured by Mr. Tian and persuaded by him, so he threw himself into the lord's account. The lord and Mr. Hetian trust me, and righteousness will be repaid with death! ”

As soon as the two said a few words, they immediately became much closer. Lu Yi originally thought that Liu Bei's princes would not trust him as a new descendant and entrust him with important tasks, but as soon as they met, Liu Bei made himself Gao Shun's deputy, responsible for training more than 50,000 new pawns, and this trust suddenly made him feel infinitely emotional!

Tian Fan smiled and looked at Guan Ping, who was looking at Guan Yu beside him, with tears streaming down his eyes. Pushing him, Tian Fan said: "Dingguo, what are you waiting for?" The lord is your uncle, the red-faced and long-haired man is your father, and the big man with a leopard's head and ringed eyes is your third uncle! ”

Guan Ping nodded to Tian Fan with gratitude on his face, and looked at the three brothers who were already standing in a row. The three of them also looked at him with emotion on their faces, and their eyes were a little red. The three of them thought of Tian Fan's words at the same time, the past is over, and from now on, we must treat this mother and son well.

Guan Ping knelt down suddenly, bowed heavily, and said loudly: "Ping'er see uncle, father, uncle!" ”…,

The three of them hurriedly stepped forward and helped him up, the four of them looked at each other for a long time, Guan Ping's tears flowed down, and the three brothers also burst into tears. After a while, Liu Bei finally couldn't help it first, gave full play to his love of crying, hugged Guan Ping violently, and cried. Guan Yu and Zhang Fei couldn't help it when they heard Liu Bei crying, and the three brothers hugged Guan Ping's nephew and cried...... That miserable and miserable relative, let everyone on the side see it, and they couldn't help but have red circles in their eyes one or two, and gambled in their hearts!

Others were moved by this picture of relatives seeing each other, but Tian Fan knew the Tao here, and his heart was even more emotional.

After a long time, the emotions of the four finally calmed down, they all came to Tian Fan and Lu Bu, the four of them hugged their fists at the same time, Liu Bei said: "Boguang, Fengxian, thank you!" ”

Guan Yu and Zhang Fei said: "Boguang, Fengxian, thank you for your great kindness!" ”

Tian Fan and Lu Bu hurriedly pulled up Liu Bei and the others, and Tian Fan said: "Lord, Yun Chang, Yide, there is no need to be like this!" Lord, you are the father of my family, Yun Chang and Yide are my friends, and your sons and nephews are also my relatives, do things for yourself, no need to thank you! ”

Lu Bu said arrogantly: "Hahaha, lord, Yun Chang, Yide, you don't have to be like this!" Hehe, Yun Chang, you have given birth to a good son! This time, he followed Boguang on the expedition, and after a battle, he killed more than ten enemy soldiers, and he was very brave. After that, he looked at Wei Yan and other rising stars, and said with some emotion: "It's really terrifying!" ”

Guan Yu shook Tian Fan and Lu Bu's hands vigorously, nodded again and again, but couldn't say a word of thanks. Guan Yu returned to the army earlier, he had already seen his wife Hu, and the husband and wife told them goodbye, and the two of them also cried bitterly for a long time. Hu's condition has long been stabilized under Siyu's careful care, and now he has recovered a lot, although his body is still weak, but it is no longer a problem to stay and walk.

Listening to Hu talk about the situation that day, Guan Yu felt a deep sense of gratitude to Tian Fan and Lu Bu. He is not a person who doesn't know what to do, Tian Fan's kindness to him has not been repaid in his life, anyway, if there are more lice, he won't bite, and if he has more debts, he won't worry. But Lu Bu is different. Thinking about the past, I looked down on him, although after he took refuge in Liu Bei, the relationship improved, but it was far from being as harmonious as Zhang Fei and him. After this incident, he no longer has any reason to look down on Lu Bu, and some are just grateful!

Sometimes, when he wakes up in the middle of the night, Guan Yu will also think of Lu Bu. In fact, if he didn't have those preconceived impressions, Lu Bu wouldn't have a bad feeling for him! Tian Fan and Zhang Fei are both people with spiritual cleanliness, and they can get along with Lu Bu extremely well, which shows that Lu Bu is not as bad as rumored. Now that I think about it, Lu Bu is really good!

Tian Fan inadvertently walked forty miles north, but unexpectedly made the relationship between him and Lu Bu and Guan Yu more harmonious, which he didn't expect. There are some things that really can't be explained by common sense.
