"Withdraw, withdraw, withdraw, Han army withdraw."

In Xincai City, there was a herald soldier who walked quickly into the lobby.

"General Qiyu, the Han army outside the city has withdrawn."

"I see."

Cao Hong is eight feet tall and mighty. The dark armor reflected his somewhat old face, Cao Hong's aura was strong, his face was deep, his eyes were like torches, and he was always sober and calm.

Waving his hand to let the herald withdraw, Cao Hong looked at Sima Yi beside him and said, "The Han army retreated, which was expected by us." ”

Xincai Chengjian, there are more than 10,000 soldiers in the city, sufficient grain and grass, prepared for a long time to defend the city, the Han army retreated, it was not an accident, it was a normal thing.

"It's just. I don't know that the prince of Hanzhong, Liu Gonghei, but there is still a backhand? ”

Sima Yi smiled lightly and said, "I don't know, but in my opinion, Liu Chan will withdraw his troops." ”

Withdrawal?

Cao Honghu's eyes widened slightly, and his eyes showed surprise.

"What do you mean by that?"

"If you can't take Runan, then Liu Chan can't afford it."

Cao Hong looked pensive and said, "It's just. . . Before, the prince of Hanzhong didn't just get a batch of grain and grass from Xuzhou and Jiangdong, and the problem of grain and grass should be no problem in a short period of time. ”

Sima Yi shook his head and said, "To fight, it's not just grain and grass that you have, but if you have grain and grass, you need to mobilize people to transport it?" Siege equipment, do you need people to build it? Swords, guns, swords, halberds, arrows, and armor are all provided by the rear, and logistics is far more than a matter of grain and grass. ”

As long as there is a war in the front, the people in the rear will not be able to devote themselves to construction, and they will always have to allocate some energy to complete the conscription.

This is naturally a great disadvantage for the restoration of Jingzhou's people's strength.

"Besides. That Liu Chan Xiao'er has won several big victories in Runan, and he has gained enough things, and now he is retreating, and it is not for nothing. ”

defeated the Wei army in a row, and forced the king of Wei to flee away.

A multi-threaded operation greatly damaged the vitality of Wei, made the people of Runan lose their hearts, let Jiangdong take away Hefei, and let Zang Ba regain control of Xuzhou.

Did he lose?

Didn't lose.

It was the Wei State that lost.

But win

Hum!

With me Sima Yi here, don't think about winning all.

"I see."

After thinking about it for a while, a trace of doubt in Cao Hong's heart also dissipated.

"The Han army is retreating, but we have a good chance to block it?"

This was deflated everywhere in Runan, and in the end, it was still relying on the tactics of the Iron King Eight that forced the Han army to retreat.

To say that Cao Hong is happy?

That's not at all.

Aggrieved!

This battle is really fucking aggrieved!

If it is in the end, it can add to the blockage of the Han army, let it know that I, Cao Hong, am not easy to mess with, but I can show my bad luck in my chest!

"That Liu Chan is very cunning, Zhuge Villager is cunning, general, it is better for us to wait for the same to respond to Wanyi."

Cao Hong's face was a little unconvinced.

The color of anger is unmistakable.

"Then I'll wait and watch the Han army come and leave? We are waiting for the King of Wei to defend Runan, not only to defend the territory, but also to defend the people of Runan! ”

If there are no people, is it still Runan?

was yelled at by Cao Hong, and the expression on Sima Yi's face did not change much.

Calm down.

The face is expressionless.

It's like someone else owes him millions.

Sima Yi said: "The general listens to our strategy, this can have the current situation, if he insists on going his own way, causing Runan to be obtained by that Liu Chan child, can the general afford this sin?" ”

Can you afford it?

He lost Hefei in front, and now he has lost Runan's words, even if the king of Wei doesn't ask him about his guilt, he has no shame to stay in the world.

"I can't afford it, but such a cowardly act, is it my Cao Hong's temperament?"

Even if his head fell off, he Cao Hong could not say a word.

But this thing is too wretched, he can't swallow this breath!

"General, then Liu Chan Xiaoer and Zhuge Villager, just wait for the general to swallow this breath! As long as the general can't swallow this breath, we will fall into the trap of the Han army, and when Runan is lost, it is not a matter of not being able to swallow this breath, it is a matter of moving the head! ”

Seeing that Cao Hong's face was blue and purple for a while, Sima Yi's tone softened, and then said: "Why should the general care about temporary gains and losses? The confrontation between my Wei State and that Liu Chan has just begun, and now that the state affairs are in trouble, if the general corrupts the situation because of his own selfishness, is this really what the general wants to see? ”

Sima Yi was both soft and hard, Cao Hong sighed deeply, and had to say: "Since that's the case, what else can I say?" Let's do it according to Zhongda's intentions! ”

Being a turtle grandson is really annoying.

But in order to make the mood feel comfortable, and make the situation in Wei fall down, this is not what Cao Hong wants to see.

"Please send an order to all cities, not to go out of the city to ambush the Han army, not to attack, violators will be killed!"

persuaded Cao Hong, apparently not satisfying Sima Yi's appetite.

He wanted the Wei army in Runan not to risk attacking.

He Sima Yi acts, he is a stable!

As for the losses?

Perhaps

But as long as you can keep Runan, it will be a great achievement, a great merit!

"This"

Cao Hong's face was a little hesitant.

He clearly knew in his heart that if he gave this military order, what would those generals think of him?

But.

What is his own face compared to the situation in Wei?

"Zhong Da will draft military orders for me."

Saying this, Cao Hong also sat on the main seat of the lobby, and the whole person seemed to be ten years old.

New interest.

In the lobby of the government office.

Liu Chan looked at the newspaper in his hand, and his brows were furrowed deeply.

"I didn't expect that the Wei army could actually calm down, my army retreated, with tens of thousands of people, countless baggage, they could actually hold back and not attack?"

In the face of such a situation, he can still calm down.

What a turtle tactic!

Shrink your head, you can hit the turtle shell casually, I just don't stick my head out.

For this kind of opponent, Liu Chan was helpless for a while.

"It seems that His Highness's last plan will not be successful." Zhuge Liang said as if sighing.

Liu Chan's last plan was to let the Han army retreat, take the people of Nanton, Pingyu, and Haoyang, and withdraw all the way to Xinxi.

On this long path, hundreds of thousands of people migrated and carried all kinds of supplies, and this movement was absolutely insignificant.

It is definitely not a joke to say that it stretches for dozens of miles.

In the face of so many people and so many supplies, even if the Han army has tens of thousands of people, it can't really protect it.

Once the Wei army comes out of the city to attack, there will be losses.

The Wei army will have something to gain.

But in the face of the fat meat in front of him, Wei Jun can actually bear it!

According to the information in Liu Chan's hands, not a single army of the Wei army left the city.

Even if the Han army sarcastically called for battle, it was the same.

"It seems that this matter of Runan has to be like this."

failed to eat the entire Runan, Liu Chan was naturally unwilling.

But the current situation, for him, is not unacceptable.

It is better to develop the economy and agriculture first, and then compete with Wei when the national strength is raised.

Under his agitation, Wei's internal strife broke out frequently, and under the influence of one and the other, although the national strength of Han China could not surpass that of Wei, it was still no problem to narrow some gaps.

Runan.

I can't take it down today, but I will take you down tomorrow!"
