Chapter 507: The Battle of Puyang (Final)


The sky slowly lit up.

In a valley.

After Liu Bei confirmed that there was no pursuit from behind and there was no danger, he let the soldiers rest where they were.

After a night of fleeing and continuous defeats, the soldiers of the Qi army were already physically and mentally exhausted.

They had not been out of danger before, and they did not dare to relax.

Now that it was confirmed that there was no threat, I felt relaxed.

The tired state also showed up quickly.

Even Liu Bei felt the same way.

The series of blows made him feel very unbearable, so he stopped and prepared to rest before continuing the march.

"Lord, my subordinates deserve to die" Shen Pei also knelt down in front of Liu Bei.

"The city guards who surrendered to our army in Puyang City had internal support from the Han army.

After the lord led his troops out of the city, they attacked the city gate, and the King of Han also led an army to attack the city."

"My subordinates were unaware and allowed the Han army to seize the city gate and open it to let the Han king enter the city.

General Han died in the battle.

His subordinates were incompetent and could only lead the remaining soldiers to fight and retreat, but it was difficult to resist the Han army.

Attacking, we have no choice but to escape from the city.

We have betrayed the lord's trust and deserve death."

He knew that all of this was in Liu Qi's plan, and he had fallen into Liu Qi's scheme.

But he has not forgotten that part of his reason for this is that it is better to confess directly than to let Liu Bei settle the score later.

Similarly, he didn't understand why it happened like this.

There was obviously no problem with the strategy, but Liu Qi took advantage of it.

The only omission may be that Liu Qi was not worried about Cao Cao and Sun Quan sending troops.

One wrong step, and every step is wrong.

Now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, even he can't do anything to reverse it.

His head was also lying on the ground, not daring to look at Liu Bei.

Looking at Shen Pei who was kneeling on the ground.

Liu Bei's eyes kept flashing.

The current situation was all because of the matchmaking proposal.

However, Liu Qi did not proceed according to their plan.

This is also one of the reasons for the defeat.

If in Dongjun, instead of following Shen Pei's plan, but listening to Xu Shu's advice, the current situation might not have happened, which is a pity.

Even if I regret it now, it has no effect.

A stern look flashed in his eyes, and then he regained his composure and said, "Get up, all this can only mean that the Han army is too cunning."

It’s not that he is unwilling to punish the judges.

But the current situation is a time of employment, and the morale of the soldiers is low.

If the judge is killed again, there is no guarantee that something will happen.

The most important point is that if Shen Pei had not led an army to arrive, Ma Chao and Pang De would not have easily led their troops to retreat, and he might not be here, but would become Liu Qi's prisoner.

As soon as he was out of danger, he killed the meritorious people, who would dare to sacrifice their lives for him.

That means we can only stay for trial matching first.

"Thank you, Lord, for not killing me," the judge said gratefully.

Liu Bei didn't say much, turned around and walked aside to rest.

Wait for Liu Bei to turn around and leave.

Only then did Shen Pei dare to stand up from the ground, with a look of joy in his eyes.

He also knew his guilt and understood that Liu Bei just didn't deal with his thoughts for the time being, but this was enough for him to be lucky.

As long as you can redeem yourself later and perform meritorious service, you can also eliminate your own guilt.

Xu Huang, who was on the side, looked at Liu Bei and then at Shen Pei.

He sighed secretly in his heart, but without speaking, he walked silently not far away from Liu Bei and guarded him.

The valley also seemed very peaceful.

Because of the disastrous failure.

The officers and soldiers of the Qi army also had sad faces, without any morale, and rested casually everywhere.

There is a sense of sadness spreading.

Liu Bei also felt this situation, but he had no way to improve his morale.

After experiencing various defeats, the whole night was spent on the run, and there were more than 100,000 soldiers, but less than 50,000 soldiers were left, and they were also exhausted.

Slowly...

Time also passed in silence.

Liu Bei also integrated these remaining soldiers and continued to march towards Nanpi.

In his opinion, only by reaching Nanpi and joining the army led by Zhang Fei can he be truly safe.

After all, Liu Qi has already recaptured Puyang, and he doesn't know what Liu Qi will do next.

What's more, the remaining troops also need supplies.

At the same time, people were also sent to report the situation in Puyang to Dongjun so that Xu Shu could come up with countermeasures.

Now their side is also in trouble and needs corresponding countermeasures to change this situation.

After this time.

Liu Bei no longer placed his hope on Cao Cao and Sun Quan.

Even if Cao Cao and Sun Quan sent troops, it would be difficult for him to gain any benefits.

The only thought now is to think about how to preserve one's own power.

The group of people also slowly headed towards Nanpi.

Although the soldiers of the Qi army were also lined up together, the formation was skewed and looked very messy, and the faces of the soldiers also looked listless.

It doesn't look like a regular army at all, no different from a scattered army.

Fading away.

On the other hand.

In Puyang City.

The common people also knew that Liu Qi had taken over the city again, which did not cause much of a stir, and they were somewhat used to it.

For ordinary people like them, as long as it does not affect their lives, it has nothing to do with who rules.

However, they also hope that Liu Qi will rule in their hearts.

After all, after Liu Qi captured Jizhou, their lives have changed a lot.

At least some of the gentry children do not dare to bully them.

Moreover, the governance regulations are also of great benefit to them.

Therefore, there will be no rejection mentality.

Ma Chao and Pang De also led their troops back to Puyang and joined Liu Qi.

There were also logistics troops, who also escorted a group of surrendered troops and a lot of food and grass back to Puyang.

Compared with the gloomy Qi army.

The Han army was full of joy.

After all, in the battle last night, they defeated the Qi army without much loss and drove the Qi army out of Puyang.

Retake Puyang.

Liu Qi did not continue to organize his army to fight, and the current Qi army had also lost morale.

At least in a short period of time, it was unable to counterattack and could only defend.

Then he asked a group of soldiers to stay in Puyang, celebrate for a day, and reward the soldiers. certainly.

The attack will not stop here.

After all, the army led by Zhang Fei is still in a stalemate in Nanpi, and Liu Bei has also withdrawn to Nanpi; and Guan Yu still occupies Jizhou; these are still things that need to be considered.

What's more, Cao Cao and Sun Quan have also sent troops, so it is inevitable that something unexpected will happen.

Only by frightening Liu Bei and weakening Liu Bei's strength so that he can no longer send troops can he be able to lead his troops to support the other two places with peace of mind
