"Win, we win!"

Everyone Chu Jun looked at the Wuhuan Iron Cavalry who fled in embarrassment, and at this moment, they suddenly roared like tears, so excited that their bodies were trembling, they were already exhausted, and they were all supported by their will.

Three thousand against six thousand.

In the end, with their strength and perseverance, they defended the territory on the south bank of the Yellow River here, so that the Yuan army could not go south and could not endanger their wives and children.

Lu Meng also breathed a sigh of relief,

It's too difficult, he's too tired, he doesn't know how long he can last, he estimates that there are thousands of casualties in this battle, and almost half of his men are slightly injured at this moment,

At most, there are four thousand soldiers left who dare to fight,

These people can't let go of the coast for tens of hundreds of miles, so they can only give a blow when the Yuan army is fighting for the river on a large scale, but at present, the chances of the Yuan army crossing the river are getting bigger and bigger.

Taking a deep look at the Wuhuan cavalry fleeing in the distance, he faintly felt that these cavalry would be hidden dangers, but those people were all iron cavalry, and he couldn't stop them at all, so he could only do his best to obey the fate of heaven.

"The whole army rests in place, deals with the battlefield, and treats wounds." Lu Meng shouted, grabbed the water bladder and poured a few mouthfuls of cold water to make his mind clear, he was thinking about how Chu Feng should decide this matter.

Whether to lead the army to rush to the aid and strangle the enemy outside, or to abandon Puyang, increase the strategic horizontal, and let the enemy army fatigue logistics, so as to get closer and fight again, Lu Meng preferred the second option.

Once they are on the south bank, it will be too difficult to fight them back, and if the enemy army does not continue to attack, just to take the strategic initiative on the south bank, the stakes are too high.

And at this moment, a war horse galloped in.

"Report~, the lord is in a hurry, General Lu Meng will quickly receive the mail." The messenger ran and shouted.

Lu Meng's pupils opened, and he immediately greeted him: "The last general, Lu Meng, listen to the dispatch!" ”

The messenger turned over and dismounted, looked at the tragic situation around him, it was obvious that he had just experienced a bloody battle here, and he couldn't help but show a little solemnity on his face, Lu Meng deserved his admiration, and said in a deep voice: "General Lu, the lord has led his troops to help,"

"Arriving in three days at the latest!"

"The lord general ordered the general to hold on for three days no matter what, so that Yuan's army could not cross the river as much as possible." After the messenger finished speaking, he added sadly: "If the general can't stop it, he can also withdraw to Puyang for repairs first." ”

"There are no retreating generals in the Chu army! Lu Meng promises to complete the task! Lu Meng shouted loudly, no matter what, he had to hold the river bank, let Chu Feng arrive, and completely repel the Yuan army.

But he also knew that it was too difficult.

With 4,000 people, it is impossible to defend at all, especially the Yuan army may have gathered ships everywhere during this time, because their ships were destroyed a lot by the navy, so they could not cross the river on a large scale.

But now, the navy is put on hold.

Now, with the ships they were looking for, once they wanted to cross the river on a large scale, it would be easy, and all he could do was to nail it to the bank of the river like an anchor and wait for Chu Feng to arrive.

He believed that Chu Feng's arrival would definitely hit Yuan Jun hard.

"General Lu, don't force it, the lord specially explained, if you can't do anything, you will withdraw first, and the lord guild will repel them with his own hands." The messenger looked solemn and said in a deep voice.

"Our soldiers are buried in thousands of bones, and I, as the main general, can I take a step back? Go back and tell the lord that there is only Lu Meng who died in battle, and there is no Lu Meng who retreated! ”

Lu Meng pressed his sword, his body was straight,

This courage alone has moved countless people.

This is also to take a deep breath of the messenger, all the generals of the Chu army are like this, he is also helpless, his own boss is indeed too charismatic!

After explaining this, and learning about the situation on Lu Meng's side, the messenger changed to a black war horse and went back, but he was faster on the way back, and he needed to inform Chu Feng of the situation here.

Lu Meng's remaining soldiers and horses will definitely not last long.

The pride of the Chu army made it impossible for Lü Meng to retreat.

Watching the messenger leave, Lu Meng turned around, but saw that the two thousand people all stood up, their eyes were sincere, they wanted to know what news Chu Feng had come.

"Brothers, the lord has already led his troops to come, and he will arrive soon, he asked me to take him to greet you, hard work, but before the lord arrives, the responsibility on our shoulders has not been removed."

Lu Meng looked at everyone, his eyes burning.

Tears welled up in everyone's eyes, and their king had not forgotten them, and still remembered them.

"Next, every battle is a battle to the death, are you afraid?" Lu Meng gritted his teeth, feeling guilty for the soldiers under his command.

But these answers are so neat, all of them should be drunk, they all dare to fight, and they are not afraid, which makes Lu Meng's pupils red.

A group of warriors who are not afraid of swords, blood, and pain are rolling down tears at this moment, everyone is, but no one laughs at them, and no one dares to laugh at them.

They are destined to be the bravest people.

————

On the same day, Liyang.

Jiao Touch retreated with dozens of remnants, embarrassed, and as soon as he entered the big tent, he shouted: "Defeated Jiao Touch, I have seen the lord!" ”

Yuan Shao had a dark face, a look of anger, and flicked his sleeves and ignored it.

On the side, Guo Tu saw this, and immediately squinted his eyes and scolded angrily: "Okay, you are scorched, you still have the face to come back, and thousands of soldiers and horses of my army have all been folded in the Yellow River by you." ”

"Lord, Lord!"

"This battle is by no means the fault of the last general, but Wu Huan, but the fault of Su Muke, the general under the command of the leader of the Bunton, this person has no one in his eyes, and he does not take Lu Meng to heart at all, and the last general's repeated persuasion is ineffective."

"So much so that he personally led 800 iron cavalry under his command to fight, but when he was less than 100 steps away from the Chu army, he turned around and fled, I sent someone to inquire, and he was afraid that the Chu army had monsters."

"It was precisely because of his retreat that my infantry soldiers messed up the morale of the army, and were finally annihilated by the army led by Lu Meng, and the last general slashed and killed dozens of people, fighting to get out of trouble, just thinking about saving his life and continuing to be loyal to the Lord."

"Otherwise, otherwise the end will be determined to be a death battle for the Chu army." Jiao Touch's words were loud, and everyone in the hall who listened was moved, while several generals behind him pursed the corners of their mouths and swallowed their saliva.

To be honest, my boss's sycophant kung fu has to be learned,

Slash and kill dozens of people? How come they don't know that their boss is so fierce?

Bun Dun frowned, but he was not in a hurry to deny it, because Su Muke's temperament he knew, he was competitive, he didn't obey anyone, he could indeed be impulsive, and it was easy to forget to wear something blocked.

"Okay, don't mention this again!" Yuan Shao looked at him, shook his sleeves and scolded angrily, losing twice in a row, making him lose face in front of the two leaders of Wuhuan and Huns.

"General Jiao, what about Su Muke's others?" Badun frowned and asked, what Su Muke said was also a brave general under his command.

"General Su fought fiercely with the Chu army later, and in the end, the last general didn't know whether General Su was alive or dead, but I think that with General Su's bravery, he should have withdrawn." The focus is ambiguous.

Badun nodded, not dwelling on it.

"Ladies and gentlemen, although there are few soldiers and horses under Lu Meng's command, he has repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on our army, which cannot be tolerated, and this farce of crossing the river should also end." Yuan Shao glared at everyone angrily, with a little dissatisfaction.

"What Gong Yuan said is very true," he nodded.

The king of the Huns also nodded in accord, but he didn't want to contribute too early, especially before he crossed the river.

"Now, the Chu army's navy has been stranded a hundred miles downstream, not worth mentioning, our army has also drawn hundreds of small boats from Shuishui, Huangze Lake and other places, which have been transported, and they can cross the river again tonight, and they will be successful."

"This battle is unwinnable!"

"Otherwise, once Chu Feng leads his troops to kill, I'm afraid this Yellow River will become the biggest difficulty for our army! Who of the generals dares to go into battle and lead the army across the river,"

Yuan Shao said loudly, with determination, looking around at everyone.

However, all the generals under his command, led by Han Meng, Jiao Touch and others, all bowed their heads and did not dare to say much, the Chu army was not easy to mess with, although Lu Meng only had thousands of soldiers and horses, but the Chu army's will to fight was too strong.

Seeing that everyone didn't answer, this could make Yuan Shaoqi's chest swell and painful, Yuan Tan wanted to take a step forward and speak, but was stopped by a look from his strategists, this kind of drudgery of crossing the river is the best.

"Isn't there anyone who wants to cross the river to make meritorious contributions?" Yuan Shao asked angrily.

"Lord, there are only thousands of soldiers and horses under Lu Meng's command, but they are all brave and forcibly cross the river, once they are discovered, Lu Meng will definitely attack him half-way again, and it is inevitable that the mistakes of the past will not be repeated at that time."

Xu Yu immediately staggered and spoke.

"What about the far away?" Yuan Shao frowned and asked.

"Lord, now that our transportation capacity has been greatly increased, there are hundreds more warships available, and it is possible to attack the east and the west, so that Lu Meng can't figure out the truth and reality, so that he is tired of running for his life, and our army can better cross the river."

Xu Yu stroked his beard and said with a bit of pride.

"Striking the West?" Yuan Shao raised his eyebrows, and then instantly smiled, "What Ziyuan said is very true, it is very much in line with my wishes, and the sound of attacking the east and the west will definitely make Lu Meng unable to find out the movement of our army." ”

"Is there a plan for the specific layout?"

"My lord, mobilize all the warships, some of them cross the river from the west side of Liyang, and it is blatant, let Lu Meng know, so as to lead the army to attack, our army will not engage in this combination of fiction and reality."

"After transferring Lu Meng, cross the river on the east side synchronously, and wait for Lu Meng to react, it is definitely too late, when the army is in the south, Lu Meng can only look at the river and sigh, and there is no way!"

Xu You pinched his goatee, the corners of his mouth hooked up, that touch of arrogance, but Yuan Shao liked it very much, although Xu You was crazy, but he had talent, and Tian Feng was frustrated and left, he could only rely on it.

"Well, well said!"

"Jiao Touch listens to the order, you lead 10,000 troops, the momentum is huge, give me to cross the river on the west side, remember, send more scouts to investigate, once Lu Meng leads his troops to arrive, let those who land on the shore flee into the distance,"

Yuan Shao looked at Jiao Touchdao with an unkind face.

"The last general commands!" Jiao Touch's heart was happy, this errand was good, and he liked it directly.

"Han Meng, you will lead the elites of the various units to smuggle me on the east side, you must wait for Lu Meng to lead the troops out of the camp to cross the river, and be fast, after landing on the shore, do a good job of defense, you must be foolproof."

Yuan Shao looked at Han Meng again, this is the number one general under him, and he should be entrusted with a heavy responsibility.

"Rest assured, the lord will live up to expectations." Han Meng nodded, with a bit of solemnity, but he was beaten by the Chu army once, and there was a shadow in his heart, but it should not be revealed at the moment.

Especially when the Yuan army lost two times in a row, the tone of the Wuhuan leader and the king of the Huns towards Yuan Shao has changed a little, from the initial flattery, to the current arrogance, as if Yuan Shao must rely on them.

"This time, it's going to be successful."

"If it doesn't work out, you two won't come back to see me!" Yuan Shao glanced at Han Meng and the others, a little displeased.

"No!" The two of them shuddered.

"Alright, let's go down and get ready!" Yuan Shao waved his hand, too lazy to say more to them, he was too tired, it was really annoying to beat Chu Feng, especially if Chu Feng hadn't come forward yet,

This is even more physical and mental torture,

After all, it was so hard to beat Lu Meng, if he met Chu Feng, he couldn't imagine what it would be.

"No!" Everyone responded in unison.

Everyone retreated, Wuhuan and Xiongnu returned to their respective camps, but Yuan Tan returned to his camp with his staff.

Guo Tu glanced at Yuan Tan, his pupils flashed with ruthlessness, and he immediately said: "Eldest prince, Yuan Shang is fighting against Huang Zhong in the plains, this is a good opportunity to get rid of him!" ”

"Do it now? Haven't repelled Chu Feng yet! Yuan Tan frowned.

"Gongzi is confused, although the Chu army is strong now, the main alliance army is nearly 300,000, and it is said that Cao Cao will also gather more than 100,000 to go south, and the Chu army will be defeated, this is a good opportunity to get rid of Yuan Shang!"

Guo Tu squinted his eyes and immediately suggested.

"But." Yuan Tan was silent, a little hesitant.

"Eldest son, haven't you forgotten the lord's preference for the third prince? Once Chu Feng is executed, I am afraid that this inheritance position has nothing to do with you, the eldest prince, the tone is like this, it is better to strike first! ”

Guo Tu immediately suggested.

Thinking of this, Yuan Tan frowned, his iron fist clenched angrily, Yuan Shao had a preference for Yuan Shangke, and he had long suspected that Yuan Shao would leave the foundation to Yuan Shang, and his anger rose in an instant

"But now that the war is urgent, how can we punish it?" Yuan Tan frowned and asked.

"The eldest prince, although we can't punish him at the moment, we can borrow a knife to kill people, that Gao Tang guard general Huang Zhong is also a fierce general under Chu Feng, you might as well use a little trick and let Huang Zhong kill us on our behalf!"

"In this way, there will be no suspicion on the head of the childe." The corners of Guo Tu's mouth hooked up coldly and said.

"Please let me know!" Yuan Tan clenched his fists, with a look of asking for advice.

"Childe, the war on the plains is relaxed, and it is not easy to kill people with a knife, so it is better for Gongzi to steal the seal of the lord and marshal, and write a letter to the third prince, saying that he will be summoned to Liyang."

"When the time comes." Speaking of this, the corners of Guo Tu's mouth hooked up, revealing a sinister smile.

Yuan Tan narrowed the corners of his eyes, and echoed: "When the time comes, inform Huang Zhong of this news and let him arrange someone to secretly ambush him?" ”

"Exactly, I think that there are many killers in the Chu army all over Jizhou. At that time, the eldest prince can also send someone to ambush, just in case, if the Chu army doesn't do it, then pretend to be the Chu army and kill him. ”

Guo Tu wiped his neck and said viciously.

"But, it's just that if I steal my father's handsome seal and spread the news, I will definitely be suspicious of me, when the time comes." Yuan Tan hesitated.

"Gongzi is too worried, when the time comes, whether the Chu army kills or we kill, someone will be arranged to exchange the letter with the true seal, and everyone will think that this is the trick of the Chu army!"

Guo Tu replied.

"Okay, that's it!"
