Because of the Tao family, now Sun Hao uses more clans, such as in Jingzhou, he uses the children of the old capital to wait for Sun Lin's lineage, but he still uses the obedient Sun Yu as the governor to contain each other.

Now the governor led his troops to attack Fancheng is Sun Shu, the son of Sun Lin, who has been operating in Jingzhou for many years, and has also trained some elite soldiers, but seeing that the soldiers under the tent now have little fighting spirit, Sun Shu gave up the illusion of breaking the city a few days earlier, and began to think about how to successfully withdraw from the army.

The basic condition of a famous general is to know when to advance and retreat, when to advance, when to retreat, the timing of advance and retreat can be clear, not confused by the immediate benefits, to do this, you can strive for the title of famous general.

Sun Shu thinks that he is not a famous general, but he thinks that he still has a good grasp of the timing of advance and retreat on the battlefield.

After another day of tentative attack, he would not fantasize about such beautiful things as breaking through the camp and castle in one fell swoop, but he didn't even find a flaw in the city's defenses—to be more precise, the flaws on it were not something that his thousands of soldiers could take advantage of—which made Sun Shu completely give up the idea of biting a piece of the fat of Fancheng.

Besides, what about breaking the city, his current position has reached a limit, as a clan, although he is the emperor's confidant, but his authority is also limited, and the Sun family killed the clan without mercy!

He just broke Fancheng, it was nothing more than a merit to remember, and then there were Dengxian and other cities, then it would go deep into the hinterland, without the backing of the naval army, it would be impossible to beat the Han army!

Although it is not very clear how many troops there are in Fancheng, it may be a lot or very little, but Sun Shu has no intention of gambling with his life, Sun Shu ordered him to send troops, he has already done it, and he does not have to continue to work hard for Sun Yi.

He is the emperor's person, not the person of King Liang, King Liang himself is only the son of the previous emperor, although there is a slight possibility of inheriting the great cause, but Sun Hao has already established the crown prince, and King Liang has no chance, and it is impossible to prevent his promotion, and it is impossible to help him with much promotion, in this case, Sun Shu naturally knows what he should do and how to do it.

Sun Shu would not throw away the capital of his family in the country that was meaningless to him under Fancheng, if he lost the thousands of elite soldiers who bowed down to his orders, his family would suddenly rank among the top five in the clan and become a bully.

Even, like the Tao family, it's not impossible!

Now that Sun Yan, who is leading the army under Xiangyang City, he actually has the same intention of retreating.

Originally, this battle should not be fought, at least not here, Xiangyang Jiancheng, if there is a defense, it will be difficult to break, and this should not be the aggressive direction of Wu State.

And these subordinates now, not all of them can be used, Sun Shu will not pin his hopes on these subordinates who have their own thoughts, more precisely, he does not believe that this expedition can be successful, just a casual battle.

What he hoped most was to receive good news from Fancheng, but so far, it has only been reported that everything is going smoothly, and Sun Yi knows that something is wrong, and even if he has the idea of retreating.

"It's time to retreat." Finding the generals who led the army, Sun Yi said his order.

After all, he is the king of Liang, and now he holds a lot of property and has money to buy people's hearts, so he has great authority among his subordinates, and Sun Yi is also easy to drive them to serve him without any interest, with money as a helper, everything is handled in an orderly manner, and there is no trace of panic.

A war has raged, but for both sides, their original goals have been achieved.

The Han family wants Xiangyang, and Sun Yi is just thinking about dealing with Sun Hao, and when it comes to losses, if you only count the immediate situation, the loss of the besieging side is about 1,000, and the defending side has more than 300 people.

Just by looking at this number, you can see how low the intensity of this battle is!

This is a large-scale battle between the two sides totaling more than 50,000 people, but only a few casualties!

And Zhang Wei in Fancheng, as long as the city is not broken, the number of casualties will only double at most.

did not suffer a big loss, it is said that he can already reward the gods and worship the Buddha, but Sun Yan is still not happy, because one thing can be determined - that is, the Han family really rose up.

It should have been the weakest of the three countries, and it should have been destroyed in the first two years, why did it suddenly turn over?

This is Sun Hao's first intimate contact with the Han after the governor of Jingzhou, it is foreseeable that this is by no means the last, when Sun Wu attacked Jingzhou, causing the Yanhan to rise up and be broken, this kind of hatred, after all, will be returned.

Yan Han has ambitions in the world, and sooner or later the two countries will really have to divide the winner.

Whether it is the sect at the head of the city or the grandson under the city, they have all realized at this moment.

Seeing the enemy troops besieging the city go away little by little, Zong Qian's mind relaxed slightly, he was old, and he should have lived for a long time, but if you have a life, he has to sell his life.

Yan Han is now using not many people, the military is still lacking a general who can lead the party, so the veterans also have to move, the horn seems to be still echoing in the ears, but the city is empty, Zong Pre secretly praised the commander of the Wu army under the city said that he would put it down, and if someone else came to lead the army, he would probably have to hit his head and bleed before he stopped.

I have received an urgent message, the 200,000 Wei army in Guanzhong has been wiped out, only the Wei thief pseudo-king Sima Yan fled in the mountains, and most of the rest were captured.

Although he was still worried about Zhang Wei and his more than 3,000 soldiers trapped in Fancheng, but at this time, he couldn't take it lightly, the Wu army had a naval army, and it was very fast to come, so he just picked out about a thousand elites from the city and chased after the retreating enemy army, as for the reason for the retreat of the Wu army, it was quite difficult to think about.

The few answers that Zong expected made sense, making it difficult for him to be sure - but now, Zong Yu just wanted to relax for a while, his old bones, and he couldn't use it a few times, according to His Majesty's strategy, after attacking Xiangyang, he was waiting for Jiaozhou to have a complete strategy, the battle of Guanzhong was over, and then the three-way attack on Jingzhou. fresh

Huo Yi has already supervised the troops into Jiaozhou, and now although Wu has betrayed the alliance, but all the ministries have not been completely mobilized, at this time, it is necessary to fight fast and slow, and completely attack Jiaozhou of Wu State, at least Yulin County and Cangwu County, and then cooperate with His Majesty's three-way strategy of cutting down Jing.

On the way, he received a messenger who came to report quickly, this is one of the guards sent by Huo Yi to Tao Huang, and he can still be trusted.

"What the hell did Tao Thorn Shi say?" After he saluted, Huo Yi immediately asked, "Can you say that some people have moved?" ”

The guard nodded at this time: "Yes, Du Du, Tao Envoy Jun has already said that he has moved the Baiyi chieftain Wu Hu and others to attack Yulin County, and Tao Envoy Jun ordered me to send a message to the Governor, let the Governor attack Yulin directly, and then join forces into Cangwu County." ”

Huo Yi never counted on any reinforcements, what he did in Nanzhong was to train the troops and wait for the opportunity, after all, at that time, the Han was weak and Wu was strong, and it was difficult to suppress and appease him.

He thought that Tao Huang would set up an internal response in the city, which was good, but he didn't expect Tao Huang to say that he had moved a tribe, and Wuhu Huoyi also knew that this was the big chief, just like the status of the Meng family in Nanban, the Wu family almost had the same status among the Yiren in Jiaozhou, although it was only the second person, it was enough.

Huo Yi didn't expect Tao Huang to be able to do this, Wu Hu was even more untamed than his brother, it was much more difficult to make him angry, and he could still send troops, which was already a miracle.

"How did the history of Tao Thorn say that it moved?" At this time, Huo Biao in front of Huo Yi's tent asked what he wanted to ask for Huo Yi.

He is the grandson of Huo Yi, the eldest grandson of the Huo family, who was used in front of the army early on, and now he is in charge of the guard, and he also has the rank of general.

Although Huo Yi already knew something about Tao Huang, he was still taken aback by hearing that he directly killed the messenger of Wu State, or a move of killing in ten steps, and he was also quite admired for Tao Huang giving up a great achievement that could make him famous in the court.

"Tao Thorn History, this is a great achievement." After listening, Huo Yi muttered, and then he suddenly raised his head and said to Huo Biao, "Go and find General Wen, this battle of conquest must be fully successful!" ”

Now that Tao Huang has done most of the pre-tasks, Huo Yi's goal is naturally higher, this time he will not only take Yulin County, attack Cangwu County, but also take Nanhai County, and then join the army to directly go north.

Fancheng, the air on the head of the city, is still filled with the burning smell of the torch burning, and when the sun rises in the sky, it has not faded after half a day, and the dust and smoke in the air will be the clear blue like water on the zenith a few days ago, dyed with a layer of ambiguous turbidity.

Zhang Wei closed his eyes, leaned on the pheasant moat and pretended to sleep, yesterday for some reason, after he withdrew last night, the Wu army attacked the city several times in succession, which made the city and the city are tired, and the strength of the Wu people is only twice that of Zhang Wei, and they stayed up together last night, and no one could rest. Not only was Zhang Wei tired enough, but the enemy troops under the city did not continue to attack today.

It's just that even if it is attacked, Zhang Wei is not afraid at all, according to the normal combat power exchange ratio, the 5,000 people of the Wu army can barely compete with the 3,000 elite Han army, if it were not for the fact that they have a naval army, and the main force attacking Xiangyang will be dispatched at any time, Zhang Wei would have sent people out of the city to fight in the field.

He was confident enough to destroy more than 5,000 people outside the city in one battle, even if there were only 3,000 people in his hands.

One of Zhang Wei's literate personal soldiers reported last night's losses in front of him, "There were 517 people who fought with the general last night, 31 of them did not come back, and the remaining more than 50 people were seriously injured and sick, and they could not return to the battle in a short time." ”

Zhang Wei's face was as gloomy as the sky above his head, of the five hundred people who followed him out of the city to raid, there were thirty-one people who failed to return, and now there are dozens of people lying on the hospital bed, and the ones he took out to attack at night are the elite of the elite, counting, there are eleven casualties, I don't think the loss is so miserable.

Slightly regretful, he knew that he had done something wrong, Zhang Wei closed his eyes, and the soldiers didn't know what he was thinking, and in hesitation, his voice stopped.

"Why didn't you say it?" Zhang Wei opened his eyes and asked.

The soldiers hurriedly continued to Zhang Wei: "In terms of armament, there are still more than 30,000 arrows sent during the day yesterday, which have been gathered according to the general's requirements and distributed to those who are good at archery, but there is no way to defend the city. ”

There is an extreme shortage of arrows in the city, plus there is no oil, no wood and stone, not even much firewood and grass to boil water, and the equipment to defend the city is even less flattering.

I don't know how long this battle will last, but Zhang Wei has not lost confidence, no matter what, the city can still be defended, the food is enough, although the ordnance is slightly insufficient, but it is no problem to defend the city for a few more days, not to mention that the ordnance will be sent.

In Linpu City, Sun Che, the city commander, was watching the people passing by outside the city, and he was full of panic.

Originally, he thought it was an ordinary Yi people who were making trouble, which was normal in Jiaozhou, but now he found that what he was facing now were all organized elites, and their tenacity was much stronger than that of ordinary Yi people, so he was very surprised: 'Who are they?' ’

The faint tremor from the ground interrupted Sun Che's speculation, and he got up again at this time, and looked east, only to see dust and smoke rising in the sky, covering the valley in the eastern mountains like mist, and after a while, thousands of Yiren cavalry appeared in front of him.

The trumpet sounded, and thousands of troops came to the ground, and in the ears of the defenders in the city, it was like the chains of the Gousi people ringing.

The enemy troops surrounding the city suddenly increased by nearly one and a half times the number of men and horses, and at the head of the city, everyone had a miserable face, which was originally in a state of siege, and it was gradually exhausted. Now there is another new force, which makes them completely lose confidence.

Sun Che looked at his subordinates who became numb, and a fierce anger rose in his heart, "If you don't want to die, listen to me!" These Yiren are only six or seven thousand people, and we also have two thousand, when will these Yiren be able to break the city if they are less than ten times the defenders? Cheer me up! I've already asked Yu Lin for help! ”

He roared loudly and said nonsense without hesitation: "These are just Yiren, they don't have any sharp weapons, don't be scared?" Hold on today, Lord Thorn will definitely bring reinforcements tomorrow! ”

Sun Che is also a clan, and Sun Zhen is a close branch, and he was appointed as the city commander of this remote area, he knew that something was wrong, but at this time, he still had illusions.

In the past few days, he has also heard that someone from the Tao family is coming and going in Jiaozhou, whether the city is stable or not, he doesn't know, after all, he is here to enjoy the blessings, not to suffer, he wants to worry about so many things, but now he regrets it slightly, it is better to prepare earlier, abandon this city order that does not have much oil and water early, and go to Jianye as soon as possible, otherwise he will not be so frightened now!
