Chapter 782: The Liaodong Army Retreats
"My lord."
Wei Qing, Xue Wanche, Xiahou Yuan and other generals of the Youzhou Army came out of the gate of Jixian County to see Chutian.
These generals are more or less wounded.
The Battle of Youzhou was even more tragic than the Battle of Bishan.
Chutian can still gain an advantage in Bishan, while the Youzhou army is on the defensive.
"Thank you for your hard work, all the people who defend the city, like the soldiers who participated in the Battle of Bishan, record their exploits."
Chu Tian saw that the generals of the Youzhou Army were wounded, and knew that in order to defend Youzhou, they could be regarded as being born and died.
Chu Tian's eyes fell on Xia Liang again, and she personally went to Jixian County to lead the Shenji Battalion and the Youzhou Army to defend Jixian County, which also contributed a lot.
"Your hand ......"
Chu Tian found that one of Xia Liang's hands was injured.
"Getting injured while defending the city, it's not a big deal."
It doesn't matter if it's cool in summer.
"I have written down this matter, and I will have to pay the price in the future."
Chu Tian thought that the amount of equipment was not so large, and the field that should be recovered still had to be recovered.
Not only was it cool in summer, but Huo Qing and Qin Liangyu also came to participate in the defense of Jixian County, as well as the rather exaggerated vulture bones.
Among all of them, the vultures stood out like a flock, like a small mountain, quite shocking.
"I ......"
Huo Qing didn't know what to call Chu Tian, after all, she hadn't gotten an official identity yet.
"You also have merits in this battle, I will mention this to Huo An, he should be happy that you have grown."
"He won't ......"
Huo Qing pouted.
Qin Liangyu was injured because of defending the city, and there is still a shallow scratch on his face.
"Have the white pole soldiers and rattan armor soldiers of the Southern Barbarians come to defend the city? It seems that he still owes Mu Ke a favor. ”
Chu Tian was still quite grateful to the Southern Barbarian Lord for sending reinforcements.
When the surrounding princes coveted the Central Plains, a rich land in the agricultural era, it was good to have reinforcements arrive.
The surrounding princes were all thinking that after the collapse of Chutian's power, they could replace him.
Qin Liangyu said respectfully: "Your Royal Highness King Xia, our lord has received accurate news that the new Yizhou Mu Liu Bei is secretly contacting the magnates and tribes of Qianwei, Qiqi, and Yueshan, intending to annex the territory of our lordship, therefore, I and the vulture bones must return to the Southern Barbarians." ”
Chu Tian's eyes changed.
Liu Bei is really tenacious, he can stir up the storm wherever he goes, fight the southern barbarians in the south, conquer Hanzhong in the north, and offend all the allies of Chutian.
Liu Yan died of illness, Liu Zhang was weak, Zhang Dao's Hanzhong army lacked a suitable commander after all, Liu Bei's forces expanded savagely in Yizhou, and they were supported by the local scholars. In the future, I will march into Yizhou and teach him how to behave. ”
Chu Tian was helpless against Liu Bei, who had a charismatic personality, and he was helpless for a while, and Chu Tian was temporarily unable to distract from the infighting in Yizhou.
"If Nanban is in danger of being annexed, you can freely enter and leave the Xia Wangfu to ask for reinforcements, and Nanban can't let Liu Bei take it."
Chu Tian was not very willing to see Liu Bei obtain the special troops of Nanban, and at this time, he needed to use Mu Ke, Qin Liangyu, Wutu Gu and others to contain Liu Bei in Nanban, so that Liu Bei would not have time to fight Yizhou.
Liu Bei's north and Zhang Dao's Hanzhong can also temporarily contain Liu Bei.
Zhang Dao and Mu Ke, from the south and north, respectively clamped Liu Bei's two expansion directions.
After the siege was lifted in Youzhou in the summer, Qin Liangyu was also let go back: "The biggest reliance of the Nanban in the face of the Yizhou army is not the generals and troops, but the terrain. The Yizhou army may not be able to adapt to the harsh environment of the Southern Barbarians, and if the walls are clear and the wilderness is clear, avoiding without fighting, then the Yizhou army will be defeated and retreated. The only thing worth noting is the attitude of the Nanban tribes. Liu Bei's military advisor Wang Meng is good at using stratagems, and he will definitely try to drive a wedge between the Nanban tribe and Mu Ke, or use tactics such as fire attacks, remember. ”
Qin Liangyu nodded: "Our lord has been friends with the Nanban tribe for several years, and they may not betray. ”
Chu Tian shook his head: "A few years of friendship may not guarantee all loyalty, the forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds." ”
Qin Liangyu and Vulture Gu led the remnants of the white pole soldiers and vine armor soldiers to return directly to Nanban.
The losses of the white pole soldiers and the rattan armor soldiers were huge, and half of the troops were lost.
"Try not to risk it next time."
Chu Tian gently held Xia Liang's injured hand, if the stone thrown by the trebuchet hit Xia Liang head-on, maybe Princess Xia's position would be vacant.
"Guanzhong hasn't been taken down yet, so I have to take a risk."
"Guanzhong is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the next time we will attack from the two directions of Hedong and Tongguan, or even directly capture Liangzhou, forming a three-sided encirclement of Guanzhong, and there is no danger in Guanzhong, such as exploring the bag and taking things."
"Needless to say, it's so full."
"That's the only thing I can say in front of you. We are preparing to recover Changping County, Juyongguan, and Shanggu County. ”
Chutian discussed with Xia Liang to recover the entire Youzhou county occupied by the Liaodong Army.
"Their relationship is really good......"
Xiao Xuan still had the Mo Evil Sword hanging on his waist, so he returned the Mo Evil Sword to Xia Liang.
……
In Yuyang County, Sun Chuanting and Lan Yu, who attacked this place, received a notice from Mingguan, asking them to retreat to the scope of Mingguan's forces and avoid the edge for the time being.
"The Qin army is in Bishan, and our lord is in Jixian County, and he has lost a lot of troops, and he needs time to rest."
Sun Chuanting ordered the Xianbei and Wuhuan cavalry to retreat.
"Our Murong tribe sacrificed a lot of troops to deal with Cao Cao, and now we are letting us retreat? The King of Qin in Guanzhong has not yet made up his mind to fight to the death with the King of Xia? Only 200,000 people died, so why be afraid! Only by pressing all the forces and fighting it out can you have a chance to die and survive! ”
Murong Ba was greatly annoyed when he received the order to withdraw his troops.
In his opinion, neither Lao Qin nor Ming Guan had the courage to spend a lot of money.
The three princes seem to be still testing each other's details. Otherwise, if the three major princes really fight, it is definitely not as simple as killing 200,000 troops, even if they kill a million troops, the possibility is extremely high.
Murong Ba led the Yanguo Longcheng Iron Cavalry to assault Xiahoudun, causing Xiahoudun to be seriously injured.
However, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard cavalry also injured Murong Ba's other son, Murong Bao.
"Withdraw your troops!"
Although Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Army repeatedly targeted Murong Ba's son, Murong Ba still chose to withdraw his troops.
Without the support of the army of Mingguan, the Murong tribe could not compete with the Youzhou army.
"We're just leaving?"
The Wuhuan leader who joined forces with Murong Ba was a little incredulous.
The situation of the Liaoxi Army in Yuyang County is very good, Murong Ba and his sons rely on the iron cavalry of Yanguo Longcheng, and Cao Cao's tiger and leopard army are hard to shake, Murong Ba is personally charging into battle, and the Wuhuan cavalry of Badun is responsible for sweeping the formation, and it seems that they can win.
Zhou Yafu was besieged by Sun Chuanting, Lan Yu, Yuwen Xianbei, Duan Xianbei, and the two Wuhuan leaders, and it was only a matter of time before the camp was captured.
But Ming Guan took the initiative to avoid Chu Tian's edge, and seemed to be a little afraid of Chu Tian.
After all, the Liaodong Army in Mingguan is absolutely elite, and once all of them are lost in Youzhou, then Mingguan will be completely unable to control the servant armies of various tribes.
"If you don't want to die, you stay here."
Murong Ba said coldly, and finally obediently followed Murong Ba away.
He also knew that if it weren't for Murong Ba, the most capable Xianbei god of war among the Xianbei generals, he would have been slashed by Cao Cao's tiger and leopard horseman.
"I'm really unwilling, my brother will definitely avenge you."
Duan Piyan, the leader of the Duan clan's Xianbei, said to the seriously injured Duan Wenyang.
Duan Wenyang is the first fierce general of Duan's Xianbei, and he is also a dead soldier who dares to charge, with a force of more than 90, but in the duel with Li Guang, he was wounded by Li Guang with a bow and arrow and almost died.
"Brother, Li Guang shot my revenge, and when I get better, I will come to report it in person."
Duan Wenyang was wrapped in several layers of gauze, and his serious injuries had not healed, and the pain from time to time made Duan Wenyang grit his teeth.
As the first fierce general of the Duan clan, he was shot and wounded by Li Guang in front of the two armies, which made him lose face within the Duan tribe. What's more, Li Guang is not the number one fierce general of Chutian's forces.
"If you take care of your injuries, we'll have a chance."
After Duan Piyan gave the order, Duan's Xianbei cavalry began to withdraw to the east.
"King Ming asks us to withdraw our troops, conserve our strength, and prepare for the next decisive battle. I really don't know how King Ming thinks about it, this opportunity, after all, he still chooses to forbear. ”
Yuwen Xianbei's leader, Yuwen Yidougui, also received an order to withdraw his troops.
A military general of the Yuwen Xianbei tribe said: "This may be a test of each other's hole cards between the three princes and kings, as well as to determine the position of the other princes. When all parties are clear about each other's hole cards, the next big battle may really be a life-and-death showdown, with only one survivor left. ”
"What you said is very reasonable, our Yuwen family has a talent like you, it is really the luck of our Yuwen family, the two major Xianbei tribes of Murong and Duan, do not take our Yuwen Xianbei in their eyes, but our Yuwen Xianbei is not something they can underestimate."
Yuwen Yidou looked at this general, it was this Xianbei general who almost broke through the city defended by Zhou Yafu, if it wasn't for Li Guang shooting his general, maybe this general would have succeeded in capturing the city.
"Let's retreat to Liaoxi for the time being, since King Ming is just a large-scale temptation, then there is no need to sacrifice the lives of our tribesmen for King Ming."
Yuwen Yidougui chose to withdraw his troops.
"The Xianbei cavalry and Wuhuan cavalry want to escape, but they can't be allowed to escape!"
Li Guang wanted to chase and kill the Liaoxi Army, but was stopped by Zhou Yafu: "No, there are military generals who are good at scheming on the other side, and there are many troops, once you chase them, you will be captured." ”
"I, General Fei, will not be captured by a foreign race!"
"This is a military order!"
Zhou Yafu, who was usually calm, was also annoyed, and was glared at by Zhou Yafu like this, Li Guang was a little instigated.
Zhou Yafu watched the cavalry outside the city leave, indifferent.
"They didn't go out of the city to chase them, and it seems that the ambush soldiers are useless. Zhou Yafu is really cautious. ”
Yuwen Xianbei's military generals were greatly regretted.
In the Northern War, the generals of the Xia Army were more reluctant than one another, and it seemed that the Liaodong Army was attacking fiercely, but the Xia Army lost less troops than the Liaodong Army.
