Chapter 756: The tide of battle has turned


Cao Ren met Zhang Fei on the battlefield and was forced to fight.After only fifty rounds of fighting, Cao Ren couldn't support it and was about to jump out of the battle and escape.Zhang Fei was quick and stabbed to death with a spear, stabbing Cao Ren to death.As soon as the siege of Xincheng was lifted, Zhang Fei continued to lead the army to support Xiangyang, while Meng Da continued to defend Xincheng.As soon as Zhang Fei's army of 80,000 arrived, Dian Wei hurriedly led the crowd out to meet Zhang Fei's entry into the city.Xiangyang has 80,000 more horses, and it is even more difficult for Cao Cao to break through the city, coupled with the defeats in the northwest and northeast, as well as the threat of Pang Tong's belly troops, Cao Cao began to have the intention of withdrawing.The battle situation was also unfavorable for Sun Ce, Sun Ce's defeat in Padang, and the loss of troops and the defeat of generals.Zhuge Liang attacked Yidu with all his might, and Sun Ce was forced to shrink his front, draw troops from Wuling and Baqiu, and basically abandon the attack in those two places.Guiyang, in the south of Jingzhou, was supported by Wang Ping, and Lü Meng was repeatedly unable to attack.And the attack on Lingling was Shixie, who surrendered to Sun Ce, and he was ordered by Lü Meng to lead an army of 100,000 to attack Lingling.However, Huang Quan and Li Yan, who were stationed in Lingling, only defended but did not attack, and repelled Shixie's onslaught many times.Good news came from the battle in Changsha, Guan Yu went out of the city to attack the enemy camp at night and won, Zhou Cang beheaded Sun Ce's general Ou Xing Ding Feng was forced to retreat thirty miles and set up a village, not daring to attack Changsha again.The situation became more and more unfavorable to Cao Cao, and Cao Cao's advice to the army finally withdrew.Liu Bei's battle situation finally changed to the stage of counteroffensive, and it was a counteroffensive on all fronts.Zheng Feng led 150,000 horses to attack Xinye, but Xiahoudun did not retreat.Zheng Feng couldn't capture Xinye for a while, and found that Cao Cao had retreated from Xiangyang and was retreating to Xinye, so he asked Pang Tong to discuss countermeasures.Pang Tong believed that Cao Cao still had more than 400,000 soldiers and horses, and he should not fight him head-on, but he could unite with Xiangyang's pursuers and eat his broken troops together.Zheng Feng agreed with Pang Tong and ordered the army to withdraw from Xinye, hide in the mountains and forests, and make way for Cao Cao to escape.Then, Zheng Feng went to the WeChat group of the Three Kingdoms and ordered Dian Wei and Ma Liang to lead 50,000 horses to attack and chase Cao Cao's army; ordered Zhang Fei and Yi to lead 50,000 horses to the east and raid the Jiling troops besieging Jiangxia; Li Hui was appointed to stay in Xiangyang and temporarily take charge of defense affairs.Cao Cao really hit the plan, leaving Xu Chu to lead 100,000 horses to break off, and he led the main force out of Xinye first, and entered Yingchuan.Zheng Feng waited for Xu Chu to withdraw from Xinye, so he led the army to kill from the mountains and forests and cut off Xu Chu's back road.And Dian Wei also took the opportunity to kill from Xinye and attacked Xu Chu's broken troops with Zheng Feng's troops.Xu Chu faced Dian Wei and fought for 200 rounds without a score.Xu Chu's subordinate Lu Qian faced Deng Xian, fought for thirty rounds, and was beheaded by Deng Xian.Xu Chu saw that his subordinates were beheaded, and the back road was cut off by Pang Tong, and he was almost stabbed to death by Dian Wei when he panicked, so he made a false move and fled back to the army.Xu Chu divided his troops to resist before and after, but in less than an hour, the defense line of the front army was broken by the Bai Yu army led by Zheng Feng, and the troops were suddenly in chaos, and the soldiers had no intention of fighting.Xu Chu saw that the defeat was decided, so he had to lead the army to break through the siege, and paid heavy casualties before fighting a bloody way to escape.Cao Cao found that the troops were surrounded and suppressed after the break, and hurriedly sent Xiahoudun to lead an army of 100,000 to the rescue.It's a pity that he went late, Xu Chu was almost completely annihilated, and only escaped with 10,000 horses.Pang Tong's troops and Ma Liang's troops finally met, and the strength of both sides plus the surrendered troops totaled 250,000 horses, which had the strength to attack any city.When Ma Liang came to see Zheng Feng, he brought an unexpected surprise, he was followed by two beautiful women in military uniforms and heroic postures.Zheng Feng was overjoyed at first sight, it turned out to be Sun Shangxiang and Xu's two stunning wives.Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun returned to Chengdu from the Iraqi battlefield, and went to support Xiangyang according to Zheng Feng's instructions.When they arrived on the other side of Badong, Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei found that there were women in the army, and after checking, they turned out to be two fairy sisters-in-law, which was really surprising.Sun Shangxiang and Xu were afraid that Zheng Feng would know, so they did not allow Zhao Yun and Zhang Fei to report to Zheng Feng, and after Badong broke the siege, they followed Zhang Fei to Xiangyang.Ma Liang was ordered by Zheng Feng to attack Cao Cao's broken army, and Sun Shangxiang and Xu knew that Zheng Feng was in Xinye, so they came with the army and met Zheng Feng."

Actually, if you tell me, I'll allow you two to accompany me on the expedition."

Zheng Feng hugged left and right, and the joy blossomed."

Sister Xu and I came over this time, firstly, I want to accompany you on the expedition, and secondly, I hope you don't fight Jiangdong, Sun Ce is my brother."

Sun Shangxiang said."

To unify the whole country, Jiangdong must be included, but I can promise you that in the future, if Sun Ce is defeated, I will not kill him, and I will also give Sun Ce a city as a guard, and he can still enjoy glory and wealth for the rest of his life."

Zheng Feng swears."

Even then, I don't want you to fight Jiangdong in person, I don't want my brother to lose at your hands."

Sun Shangxiang said gloomily."

Okay, I'll fight Cao Cao, and leave the affairs of Jiangdong to Zhuge Liang."

Zheng Feng said with a smile.Since he promised Sun Shangxiang, it was inconvenient for Zheng Feng to come to the Jiangdong battlefield in person, and he could only attack Cao Cao wholeheartedly.Zheng Feng discussed with Pang Tong and Ma Liang and decided to attack Wancheng and cut off Cao Cao's control of the Great Northwest.The defenders of Wancheng had 50,000 horses, and the guards were chariots, and when Zheng Feng led an army of 150,000 to arrive, he ordered the city gate to be closed tightly, preparing to defend Wancheng.Unexpectedly, Zheng Feng bypassed Wancheng and went south to Xinye, although Che Zhou received Cao Cao's order to attack and contain, but he was worried that sending troops would be in Pang Tong's plan, so he did not dare to lead the army out of the city, resulting in Cao Cao being attacked by the enemy and retreating on all fronts.At this time, Che Zhou saw that Zheng Feng's army had come back again, he was shocked and frightened, and hurriedly came to Cao Cao's rescue.Cao Cao was also worried that the loss of Wancheng would seriously threaten the safety of Chang'an, so he sent Xiahoudun to lead an army of 200,000 out of Yingchuan to rescue Wancheng.However, Xiahoudun encountered resistance in the middle, Dian Wei and Ma Liang led an army of 100,000 to intercept it, and defended according to the danger, Xiahoudun attacked many times without results.On the other side, Wancheng has been in flames, Pang Tongzheng commanded an army of 150,000 to storm the city, and once captured the east city gate, but was beaten back by Che Zhou and the crowd.Zheng Feng didn't come to the battlefield in person, it was enough to have Pang Tong on the front line, and he didn't need to go over to join in the fun.So, he hid in the barracks and checked the war in various places on WeChat.The battle in Jingzhou had been successfully opened, and when Sun Ce learned that Cao Cao had retreated, he also hurriedly withdrew from Yidu, summoned the naval armies fighting in various places to return to the building, and then went down the river to retreat to Chaisang.After Zhuge Liang recaptured Yidu, he sent Zhou Tai to lead the naval army to chase and kill, completely drive Sun Ce out of the waters of Jingzhou, and then strictly guard against Sun Ce with Wen Ping in Jiangxia.Zhuge Liang led the army to Changsha, Guan Yu handed over Changsha to Zhuge Liang, and he had to go north according to Zheng Feng's plan.Unexpectedly, Zhuge Liang felt that there were enough tiger generals fighting in the north, and he needed tiger generals by his side, so he disobeyed Zheng Feng's order and left Guan Yu behind to assist him in attacking Jiangdong.For the fastest update to read, please visit this site to read the latest novels:
