Jin Erpang left, and the old man stood up again.

This makes me wonder, although he is a ghost, many times he doesn't like to rest, but he won't come to chat with me in the middle of the night, right?

"Sir, in fact, you have long expected that Wu Sangui will send troops to ambush, then you can give him a counter-encirclement, so that all these ambushed soldiers and horses will die here, why don't you do this?"

What I was most afraid of was that someone would ask me this question, but I didn't expect the old man to ask it.

"Alas, Wu Sangui has withdrawn his troops and left, as the saying goes, you have to be merciful and forgiving, even if I send troops to surround and kill them, but you have to understand one thing, trapped beasts are the most dangerous, they fight to the death, that is the most terrible, why should I rush to kill them? What's more, I don't want anyone to die anymore, this time there are corpses everywhere, I have seen the cruelty and ruthlessness of this battlefield with my own eyes, and I don't want anyone to die here again, so why send troops to chase and kill, wouldn't it be better for everyone to leave like this, and be safe? ”

It wasn't my intention to kill people, this time Wu Sangui was defeated and left, although he would not give up, and the resentment and hatred in his heart would be deeper, but what could I do?

The battle between the two armies depends on the ability and strength, Wu Sangui suffered such a big loss and he also found it himself, his strength this time was greatly reduced, and he suffered such a big defeat, this time he led 130,000 horses to fight, but there were 70,000 or 80,000 people killed in the loss, can he still fight?

I'm afraid that in the future, if there is no five years or ten years, he will not have the ability to send troops to fight again.

Fighting, not only beating people, but also money, food, skills, this time Wu Sangui came, sent 130,000 troops, the number of people is not a few, more than 100,000 people are really not a few, looking at the pressure of all people, and then there is his grain and grass, the grain and grass are even more numerous, but we burned more than half, this is his fatal wound, two fires of Wu Sangui's camp, it can be said that the blow to him is no less than the soldiers who killed him.

So this time, there are undoubtedly three points that directly led to the defeat of Wu Sangui's army.

The first is that a large number of his soldiers were killed on the battlefield, the second is the first time that General Ma Ling led his troops to burn more than half of his grain and grass, and the third is that General Ma Ling led his troops to attack his camp and burned his barracks.

Speaking of which, Ma Ling is about to become a professional household in the word fire, and he has used fire to clean up Wu Sangui several times, if Wu Sangui knows that the major injuries of several times are all so-called by one person, I am afraid that he will be so angry that he vomits blood.

"Sir cherishes the lives of all living beings, I see!"

Old Man Tian's expression became a little different, but he didn't say anything, turned around and left.

I was still thinking about the words of the old man just now, just a few words seem simple, but there is another meaning in it, which is really incomprehensible.

Early the next morning, the sentinel came to report that Wu Sangui's camp was empty, everyone had left the camp, and Wu Sangui had completely withdrawn his troops.

I've known this for a long time, but I still have to do enough work on the surface, at least in front of the generals, to let them know.

"Marshal, okay, you really expected that Wu Sangui would withdraw his troops and leave last night, but I didn't expect that his military camp would be empty today!"

Everyone heard the report, it was called a joy, for so many days, the overnight battle made everyone physically and mentally exhausted, and they were in an extremely nervous state for a long time, and now that Wu Sangui has withdrawn his troops and left, everyone is naturally much more relaxed.

"Yes, Marshal, our victory this time is really gratifying, and now that the danger of the county town has been resolved, it is indeed something worth celebrating!"

General Mole stood up, that is called a miracle, and his words were also approved by everyone, this time Wu Sangui was defeated, who is unhappy?

"General, if you hadn't brought troops here this time, my county would have been broken by Wu Sangui a long time ago, where can I wait until now, the general's great kindness to my Wang is really difficult to repay, please accept me first!"

Wang Qi burst into tears and was already crying.

It's crying with joy, haha!

And everyone was stunned when they saw Wang Qi like this, and they didn't expect Wang Qi to be moved to tears.

"General Wang, why are you here, it is natural that we brought troops to the rescue, isn't General Wang torturing us?"

I hurriedly stepped forward to help Wang Qi up, this guy can't kneel on us.

"General, this time we were surrounded, it can be said that our lives were hanging by a thread, and we were repeatedly defeated in several battles with Wu Sangui, and we lost the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers. And this time the recommended stock came with troops this year, two battles, the first defeat of Wu Sangui, rescued the danger of our county being attacked by Wu Sangui, thwarted Wu Sangui and let him withdraw his troops thirty miles away, and then another strategy, let Wu Sangui defeat outside the camp, the loss of countless soldiers, had to lead the troops to leave, the general soldiers are like gods, this time saved hundreds of thousands of people and tens of thousands of soldiers in our county, I Wang is grateful! ”

When Wang Qi spoke, what he said was well-founded, and he said it slowly, and the whole thing was very clear.

"Why should General Wang be polite, since Wu Sangui's defeat and departure today is a gratifying day, then let's not get drunk and not return!"

Anyway, you can't watch Wang Qi crying and thanking here, it's better to change the topic, everyone is happy, isn't it?

Wang Qi listened, nodded hurriedly, said yes again and again, and then the army entered the county seat and held a banquet to celebrate!

I have to say that the scale of the county town guarded by Li Qing is absolutely first-class.

It is said that there are more than 500,000 people here, and the scale of the entire county is also very large, not to mention the various cultures, but what shocked me the most was their hospitality.

The people of the county are very good to us, as soon as they enter the county, they will send you all kinds of food and drink, which is really dazzling.

But we uphold the concept of not taking a stitch from the masses, so we dare not collect the people's things.

This celebration in the county seat can be said to have been drunk for three days and three nights, and such a big victory is indeed the most worthy of celebration.

But I couldn't be happier, although we won the battle, although we won Wu Sangui, but we also killed more than 50,000 people.

How many parents have lost their sons, how many women have lost their husbands, and how many children have lost their fathers?

At this time, although we are celebrating here, more than 50,000 families are grieving for their son who died in battle!

It's not that I'm pretending to be high-pitched here, but I really can't lift my mood at the moment.

In this battle, more than 100,000 soldiers were killed and wounded, and more than 100,000 corpses were lying there coldly.

On this day, I was also wandering around the county town with nothing to do, but suddenly I saw a familiar figure.

This man was dressed in a Taoist robe, holding a whisk in his hand, and he looked a little familiar, but he couldn't remember where I had seen him, but he couldn't remember where I had seen him.

Curious, I quietly followed, and the guy went straight out of town.

I followed him when I was in the city, so it's okay to say, after all, there are many people in the establishment, and it is not easy for him to find me.

But now that he is out of the city, it is not as easy as in the city to track him, and once he tracks him, he will definitely be discovered.

He was still wandering around the city just now, and since I followed him, this man began to walk in the direction of the city gate, and went straight out of the city.

Could it be that he found me from the moment I started stalking him?

So what did he leave the city for? Lead me out?

Curious, I followed, I wanted to see what this person was leading me out for, I felt that this person even if the back looked, it was not ordinary, following him, I was also a little cautious.

Anyway, he found out that I was my own speculation, what if he didn't find out about me?

After thinking about it, I followed him far away, as long as I could see him.

Out of the city, I followed him all the way to the woods, but the man suddenly picked up speed, and at first I could barely keep up, but as I walked, it seemed as if he could fly, and I could only vaguely see his erratic shadow.

This guy must not be simple, I was shocked, and I felt that he really sincerely led me out of the city this time.

But what did he do when he brought me out?

Are you trying to kill me?

Or is there something else?

According to the strength of this person, he is absolutely unmatched in terms of martial arts cultivation or anything, I can't compare, if he wants to kill me, then I definitely have no way to live.

I quickly followed, but the woods here were too big, and he had already abandoned me, and I couldn't find the man for a long time.

Sighing helplessly, I thought I was thinking too much, and I felt that he shouldn't have deliberately led me out of the city, maybe it was out of the city that I found out that I was following, so he accelerated to get rid of me.

Originally, it seemed that this person was very familiar, but helplessly, I couldn't see his real face, so I had to go back.

But as soon as I turned around, a cold front suddenly hit me from behind, and someone came towards me.

I sneered, thinking to myself, your sneak attack is really too low, making such a big move, as if I don't know.

turned around on the spot, and sure enough, it was the Taoist.

I saw him holding the dust whisk in one hand and the palm of the other, and hit me directly.

His speed is unhurried, but his palm power is very strong.

Seeing that he was about to hit me, I raised my hand to block it, and between the lightning and flint, there was a muffled bang, and I took five or six steps back before I could stand firm, and the Taoist priest was expressionless, not only did not retreat, but attacked me again.
