With Tai Shici ordering a breakthrough and leaving, the war was basically over.

In order to allow his subordinates to retreat successfully, Tai Shici personally led the cavalry behind the palace, and with his own cavalry, he shot more than ten people, scaring the Jingzhou soldiers who tried to pursue.

Then he glanced at the eroded battlefield, and saw that there were a large number of Jingzhou infantry cavalry surrounding the military formation, and the soldiers who could walk were basically withdrawn, and those who could not go basically surrendered. On the battlefield, a large number of surrendered Jiangdong soldiers could be seen, and they laid down their arms and gave up resistance.

Seeing this, Tai Shici did not dare to stay, so he led more than 100 horsemen under his command to withdraw.

After the war, the Jingzhou soldiers on the battlefield did not wait for the war to be completely over, they began to clean up the battlefield, such as cutting off their ears and stealing merit, or looting the money and property of the soldiers who died in the battle, and secretly stuffing them into their pockets.

"Straight thief, this is the head of a certain person, you dare to grab the credit."

Zhang Ning, the school knife hand under Guan Yu's tent, saw the soldiers under Liu Pan's tent bending down to cut off the ears of the soldiers who were beheaded by him, and reprimanded angrily.

Huang Fu looked up and saw that Zhang Ning insisted that he was robbing his merits, and he was also angry, and said: "This person was killed by your father, and An dared to say that it was yours." ”

"Fart!" Zhang Ning walked to the corpse, pointed to his wound, and said, "This abdominal wound was cut by me, how could it be yours?" ”

As soon as Zhang Ning's words fell, another person came over to grab the merit and said: "You are full of lies, this gunshot wound was poked by me, and this knife wound was cut by me." ”

As he spoke, the man also patted the saber hanging on his waist, pointed to the wound on his shoulder, and said: "This person is brave, he is almost invincible, and this wound is what he cut." ”

"The battle can't be fought, you can wait to grab people's heads." Zhang Ning was furious and said, "A certain Suiguan Junhou broke the formation to kill the enemy, but you are here to grab credit." ”

The argument between the three attracted onlookers from their respective colleagues, who, with the support of their teammates, claimed that the man had been killed by him.

Under the excitement of words, these soldiers who had just finished the battle seemed to be ready to move.

However, at this moment, the law enforcement team rushed to retreat everyone, detained the three people and their left ear, and reported the news to Liu Bei and Liu Qi.

This is the disadvantage of the United Army, there is no unified government system, and the way of counting its combat exploits is also different. Once it is not handled well, it is easy to cause dissatisfaction among all departments, and it will affect the generals and colonels from the small level of non-commissioned officers to the upper level.

Today, there are not just one or two cases of grabbing merit after the war, but dozens of cases. The most outrageous thing is that ten people claimed a human head, and each of them can find a reason to say that the human head belongs to them.

Zhang Fei frowned slightly and was about to speak, when Xu Shu stopped Zhang Fei and said in a low voice: "General Zhang, if you can't bear it, you will make a big plan." The general can lead the cavalry to pursue Tai Shici first, and the lord has his own arrangements. ”

Zhang Fei glanced at everyone with slanted eyes, snorted coldly, and walked away with the reins.

Liu Qi was a little embarrassed and asked, "What should you think about the war exploits?" ”

Liu Bei pondered for a while and said, "Bo Wei, the battle feats are not a trivial matter, but if they are not handled properly, they will cause all departments to be centrifugal. If there is a dispute with the subordinates due to the war exploits, the war exploits belong to them, and the reserve will reward himself. ”

In the face of Liu Bei's humble concession, Liu Pan, Wen Ping and other generals turned slightly red, this battle was commanded by Liu Bei, and the person who broke the formation was also Liu Bei's subordinates. Now they give up the merits of the dispute to themselves, which makes them embarrassed!

Wen Ping was also worried that Liu Bei would make the greatest contribution and would stand up for his subordinates and snatch the merits of the war. Hearing Liu Bei's words now, Wen Ping was ashamed, and he felt that he was a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

After a little hesitation, Liu Qi said: "Uncle has made great contributions to this battle, how can Qi let his uncle suffer this grievance." Today, the uncle can take half of the captured soldiers, money and food, and reward the soldiers. ”

Liu Bei was slightly happy in his heart, half of the soldiers were more than 2,000 people, these were all veterans, and they could increase their power by merging them into their own accounts.

"Thank you, Bowei!"

Liu Bei did not shirk either, and said: "Tai Shici broke through and left, although Xingba intercepted him today, but I don't know what the details are. If Tai Shici escapes, he will be a strong enemy such as us, and the armies will stay here to clean up the battlefield, and prepare the elite to chase him to see if he can intercept it. ”

"There's Uncle Law!"

……

Tai Shici led his troops to break through the encirclement and go all the way to the southeast, intending to go to Danyang County. After all, his six counties were basically captured by the Jingzhou army, and Sun Ben in the south would most likely not accept him, so he had to go southeast, enter Danyang, and go to Wu County to show what happened.

Tai Shici collected the defeated troops along the way and walked along the country road to prevent being caught up by the Jingzhou army. In the country road, there are few people, and its vegetation is lush, Tai Shici can only use the sun as a reference direction, and judge the road ahead with the trend of mountains and rivers.

I don't know how long I walked, it was already dusk, the sky was dark, Tai Shici leaned against the trees, holding the reins with one hand, his hood was lost, and his hair bun was also scattered, quite embarrassed. The more than 1,000 soldiers under him have long since lost their armor, and only a broken 'Taishi' flag is still held in his hand, fluttering in the wind.

Tai Shici licked his lips and asked, "Heng'er, is there water?" ”

Fifteen-year-old Tai Shiheng touched his waist, shook his head and said, "Father, I don't know where the water bladder was thrown." ”

Tai Shi Ci looked at the black spot in front of him, beat his spirit, and said: "Ahead is Jiaoqiu City, I will wait for the city to rest for the night, and then set off." ”

"No!"

Under the command of Tai Shici, more than 1,000 troops who had lost their armor and abandoned their armor returned to the road, fought for a long time, and half of them had no strength, so they could only stagger and hope to reach Jiaoqiu City to rest.

Just as they passed through the pass, a 'Gan' flag suddenly rose from the silent mountains on both sides, and the sound of the military drum shook the heavens and the earth. More than 2,000 soldiers stood on both sides of the mountain, flags fluttered, and the whole woodland seemed to come to life.

Gan Ning stood on the slope and shouted: "Tai Shici, I would rather be ordered by the lord and wait here for a long time." Don't hurry up and get off your horse and surrender, and return to General Zuo. ”

Such a scene directly frightened Tai Shi Ci's face pale, they were originally defeated soldiers, and now they have fled here, how can they still have the strength to fight.

Chen Yan, the chief bookkeeper, wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "General, we were victimized by Sun Ben and defeated in battle, and we have done our best for the Sun family. Now there is a large army in front of it, and there are chasing soldiers in the back, there is no way out, it is better to surrender to General Zuo. ”

Hearing this, Tai Shi Ci was furious, the whip in his hand was whipped on Chen Yan's back, and he scolded: "Sun Ben is unkind, how can I be unjust." Ci was deeply respected by Sun and rebelled, and the territory was feuded. If you surrender now, after a certain death, An has the face to see Sun Junhu! ”

Tai Shici turned over his horse, took the bow and arrow, waved his hand and said: "A certain striker, you follow me, and the killer will go out." ”

As he spoke, Tai Shici stood out on a single horse, holding a bow and arrow, opened the bow left and right, and shot to both sides. The bow was like a thunderbolt, and three arrows fell, and three soldiers fell down in response.

Seeing that the lord was brave, the defeated troops mustered up the courage to follow him and tried to break out of the pass.

"Shoot the arrows!"

However, Gan Ning, who was ordered to intercept Tai Shici, how could he let them go easily. Under his military order, the sergeant's arrows rained down like raindrops, and the sergeants who rushed ahead were killed by arrows. Even Tai Shici, who rushed in front of the horse, had to retreat to avoid his edge.

"Ahh

As he turned his horse, a crossbow arrow flew in and missed the front of the armor protection and struck him in the waist.

"Father!"

"General!"

"Up the hill!"

Tai Shi Ci endured the pain, seeing that the arrows were like flying locusts, it was really difficult to break through, and said: "To avoid the enemy army, wait tonight to see if you can break through and leave." ”

"No!"

Gan Ning looked at Tai Shi Ci who was running towards the hill, and ordered: "Guard the crossing, multi-cloth bows and crossbows, and don't let that Tai Shi Ci go down the mountain." Wait for the lord to come and see what he does. ”

As dusk approached, the cavalry led by Zhang Fei also arrived. Tai Shici supported the arrow wound, and personally led his soldiers down the mountain to break through, but they were all killed and retreated by Gan Ning and Zhang Fei.

After nightfall, the foot soldiers led by Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Huo Jun also arrived at the bottom of the hill and surrounded the hill. Tai Shi Ci and his subordinates were sleepy and lacking, and they could not do anything about this situation.
