When the sun rises in the east, when the sun shines on the earth again, a melee is nearing the end.
"This time, there weren't too many captives."
Riding a horse under the escort of the generals, Liu Xie looked at the camp that had become a sea of fire in front of him, shook his head, and sighed a little.
"The victory in this battle lies in the spirit of the army."
Jia Xu stood beside Liu Xie and said with a smile: "This time Zhang Xun was defeated and retreated to Zhongyang Mountain, and it will not be so easy to make a comeback." ” Before Liu Xie's side of the army was unstable, and even had turmoil, but after this battle, the imperial court has proved their strength with their strength, Zhang Xun was defeated, and lost not only this battle, but also the entire Nanyang military heart, this is the biggest harvest, after this battle, Nanyang military heart returned to the imperial court, Liu Xie's hands, equal to nearly 50,000 more soldiers and horses at once.
Although it can't be compared with the elite of the imperial court, so many soldiers and horses can catch up with half of the imperial court's troops.
The first prince of the world, hundreds of thousands of troops were beaten by the imperial court 30,000 troops to lose their armor and lose the city and land, it can be said that after this battle, the so-called first princes will become a joke, and the power of the court will be better, if it is said that before the Huns, Xianbei and even Xiliang, it is not enough to explain the strength of the imperial court, then after this battle, who would dare to underestimate the imperial court "That's right, but I still want to be more greedy" Liu Xie said with a smile: "Pass on my military order, order Zhao Yun to lead two thousand relatives to come as soon as possible, isn't Xu Chu powerful, I want to see how powerful he is" "Huh" Jia Xu thought about it, now that Zhang Xun has opened up the road to Zhongyang Mountain, the strategic significance of Ye County and Wuyang will be greatly reduced, and it is just for Zhao Yun to come, and the garrison will remain there, so it will be no big problem.
Zhang Xun was gone, Liu Xie was not in a hurry to return to the city, but waved his army to continue to chase, he wanted to push the battle line forward, drive Zhang Xun's troops and horses into the ditch of Zhongyang Mountain, completely cut off the connection with Nanyang, and erase the mark left by Yuan Shu in Nanyang little by little.
In the summer of 195 A.D. in the second year of Xingping, the first day of the seventh month.
The pouring rain finally made the pursuers stop the pursuit, and Zhang Xun led the remnants of the defeated army to converge Du Yuan.
The army of 30,000 people, so far there are only more than 13,000 people left, the losses of that battle, plus the pursuit of the past few days, those who were killed, those who fell behind, those who fled, in short, the only ones left in the end, but Du Yuan's bandits did not suffer too much damage, and still maintained a strength of 8,000 people.
"Ha, Zhang Xun, this is the way you said" Du Yuan's cottage was reorganized at the beginning, and now it is Zhang Xun's temporary camp, Han Xian stared at Zhang Xun with disdain, and said in a strange manner: "Sure enough, it's a good way, 30,000 troops, not even half of them are now, and those fine works have been cleared a lot, but with this little force, how is General Zhang going to recapture Nanyang" Although defeated, Han Xian had a feeling of raising his eyebrows, when the army was in his hands, although he had no achievements, but at least it was complete, but in the hands of Zhang Xun, it was only a few days of effort, and it was nearly half lost, thinking about the ruthless appearance of Zhang Xun when he seized power that day, and then compared with the gloomy expression now, Han Xian was indescribably happy in his heart.
"General Han, General Zhang, he did his best."
Xu Chu said in a sullen voice, although he doesn't know much about military affairs, but he can still feel it by Zhang Xun's side these days, Zhang Xun's ability is not a little bit stronger than Han Xian, if Han Xian is allowed to lead the troops, just the spies mixed in by the imperial court are enough to make him busy, if he is allowed to lead the troops, I am afraid that now there are 30,000 troops, and it is good to have 3,000 left.
"Shut up" Han Xian snorted coldly and looked at Xu Chu coldly: "What is your identity, is there a place for you to speak, get out of the way." ” Xu Chu's chest was blocked, glaring at Han Xian, and he was so angry that he couldn't speak.
"What are you staring at" Han Xian looked at Xu Chu coldly, and said disdainfully: "You are just the son of a Zhuang household, what qualifications do you have to talk to me and don't let me get out" "Enough" Zhang Xun had a gloomy face, slapped the table and stood up, and looked at Han Xian coldly.
"What do you want to do" Han Xian subconsciously took two steps back, then reacted, felt a little weaker, glared at Zhang Xun and said: "The responsibility for this battle lies with you, I will write a letter to the lord to explain this matter, you just wait to be held accountable by the lord."
"Don't bother General Han, if there is nothing else, there is nothing else to do here."
Taking a deep breath, Zhang Xun struggled to suppress his momentum.
"Hmph" Han Xian saw that Zhang Xun still didn't take him in his eyes at this time, he couldn't help but snort and threw his sleeves away, as for the matter of regaining military power, he didn't mention it again, his family knew his own affairs, and he had seen the methods of the imperial court before, and since then he has always regretted that he shouldn't have taken this errand at the beginning, and now since Zhang Xun is willing to take this pot, he is naturally happy and relaxed, even if Zhang Xun wants to return the military power to him at this moment, he will never agree.
"General, let him leave like this" Xu Chu stood beside Zhang Xun, looking at the direction Han Xian left, a flash of melancholy flashed in his eyes, he didn't have anything to worry about, but he was worried that this Han Xian was arranging indiscriminately and harming his villagers.
"Don't pay attention to him."
Zhang Xun sighed, shook his head and sighed: "The guilt of this matter is inescapable, but how to sentence it, it is not up to him to have the final say, when he returns to Shouchun one day, he takes the initiative to confess his guilt to the Lord, although it will not be easy, but there is no worry about his life." ” Xu Chu nodded silently, he didn't know much about these twists and turns, since Zhang Xun said it was okay, he didn't say anything more.
"By the way, Du Yuan, why didn't they come," Zhang Xun frowned and asked.
"Hmph" mentioned Du Yuan and the others, Xu Chu couldn't help but snort, shook his head and said, "Du Yuan said that he was unwell and couldn't come to discuss matters." ” said that he was unwell, let alone Zhang Xun, even Xu Chu didn't believe it.
"They are here for the future, and now that I have defeated Wancheng, don't say that they have a future, even I will be difficult to preserve."
Zhang Xun glanced at Zhang Yang, who was silent with his head bowed in shame, smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "Let him be." ” "General, what should I do next" Xu Chu asked in a deep voice, this cottage, he didn't want to stay for a moment, that Du Yuan and Bian Xi followed Zhang Xun in the past, looking like a cronie, but now that Zhang Xun is defeated, he is much colder to them, and he originally wanted to be incorporated into Yuan Shu's army, but now he avoids talking about it, and even those bandits and Zhang Xun's soldiers and horses are clearly distinguished, in the past two days, there have been conflicts from time to time, if it weren't for Zhang Xun's many people, maybe they would be swallowed by these people.
"Wait" Zhang Xun sat on the handsome chair, shook his head and sighed.
"Wait" Xu Chu couldn't help frowning when he heard this, what kind of method is this "Yes, wait" Zhang Xun looked up at the ceiling above his head, and said bitterly: "Now that the imperial court has subdued Nanyang, after this battle, the military heart is stable, we just want to fight again, the remnants of the army are not enough to say anything, how to compete with the morale of the imperial court soldiers and horses, now, it depends on how the lord decides, but before that, Zhongyang Mountain can not be discarded, once this place is lost, even if our army wants to fight back to Nanyang, there is no path." ” When Xu Chu heard this, he sighed, but it was ridiculous that Mrs.
Xu asked him to come at the beginning, and also told him not to have a grudge with the court, and when it was time to release the water, he would release one or two water.
Now that I think about it, Xu Chu feels a little ironic, it seems that since he sent out the army, he has not used too much of his own place, that is, he fought with Wei Xu and raised his prestige, and then he didn't even understand what was going on, he was defeated in a daze, and even in the chaos of the army, there were more Yuan troops who died in his hands than the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, Xu Taigong was obviously careless, where to use him today "Newspaper" At this moment, a young general rushed in, bowed to several generals and said: "Generals, traces of imperial soldiers and horses have been found in the mountain road, and now they are lining up at the bottom of the mountain, calling for formation at the bottom of the mountain. ” "Oh" Zhang Xun raised his eyebrows: "I know who the lord will be Wei Xu or Han De" "Neither."
The young general bowed down and said: "This person claims to be Changshan Zhao Zilong, a general under the command of the Son of Heaven, and he came here this time to persuade us to surrender." ” "Zhao Zilong" Zhang Xun was stunned, and then reacted: "It is Zhao Yun, a general under the command of the Son of Heaven, it is rumored that this person is brave, second only to Lu Bu in the court, and has the courage of ten thousand people. ” When the young general heard this, he hurriedly agreed and was about to leave.
"Wait" Xu Chu suddenly stood up, stopped the young general, turned his head to Zhang Xunyi and arched his hand and said: "General, the last general was wrongly loved by Yuan Gong and entrusted with a heavy task, however, since he joined the army, he has not made an inch, and he really has no shame to go back to face Yuan Gong. ” "Zhongkang's meaning is" Zhang Xun heard this, he already knew Xu Chu's thoughts, but he was a little hesitant, Zhao Yun's name is not small, he has experienced a hundred battles, his marksmanship is like a god, although Xu Chu is fierce, but it is only fierce.
"The last general will ask for battle, go down the mountain for a while, that Zhao Yun."
Xu Chu said in a deep voice.
"Zhong Kang can be sure," Zhang Xun asked in a deep voice.
"I have never fought, and the last general doesn't know what Zhao Zilong is capable of."
Xu Chu didn't pat his chest to promise, although he had absolute confidence in himself, but Zhao Yun was famous, and he wasn't sure if he could be stronger than Zhao Yun.
But no matter what, you have to fight, if you don't make an inch, let that Yuan Shu look down on it is small, if it affects the villagers, it is definitely not the result that Xu Chu wants to see.
Looking at Xu Chu's gaze, Zhang Xun probably guessed it, sighed, nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then I will personally go to the battle for Zhongkang." ” "Thank you, General" t1706231537:
