Chapter 1246: Punishment


Cao Ren looked complicated and depressed, and ordered helplessly: "Ming Jin, collect your troops and retreat."

"promise" After Cao Fei received the order, he immediately passed it on.

In Cao Fei's heart, he was unwilling to leave with his soldiers, and wanted to annihilate Huang Xu's eight thousand soldiers.

Killing Huang Xu or capturing Huang Xu alive would be a huge blow to the Shu army.

At present, the Shu army is extremely powerful.

It is very difficult for Cao Ren and his soldiers to survive in the cracks and run around.

It is very difficult to maintain the current turbulent situation and hold back Zhang Liao and Pang Tong.

It is necessary to slowly change the relationship between the two sides. gap.

"Dang Dang Dang" On the battlefield, the sound of gongs sounded.

The sound came from the Wei army.

When the spear soldiers who were fighting heard it, they felt a little confused and reluctant to withdraw.

However, the military order was like a mountain, and they had to retreat.

The spearmen retreated in an orderly manner and stopped charging forward.

Cao Ren glanced in Huang Xu's direction, sighed, and rode away.

The Wei army retreated like a tide, and the soldiers who had laid an ambush returned with Zhao Hong and Tao Mang.

After careful questioning, the two found out that Pang Tong and Zhang Liao were coming with a large army to kill them, and they were both aggrieved and angry.

In another hour, Huang Xu's eight thousand Shu army will all be killed.

Although Cao Ren had the chance, he did not dare to kill him, because he had killed Huang Xu, and Pang Tong could surround him with his army and kill him.

Cao Ren had two choices before him, and he could only withdraw.

When Huang Xu saw Cao Ren withdrawing, a look of confusion appeared in his eyes.

He didn't understand why this was because the Wei army had an absolute advantage.

As long as there was another hour, or even less than an hour, Cao Ren could destroy his soldiers.

Cao Ren took the initiative to retreat.

Could there be a trick?

No, there can't be a trick.

The Wei army has the upper hand, and any more tricks would be superfluous and meaningless.

Huang Xu's eyes kept rolling, and a possibility came to his mind.

Reinforcements should have arrived.

Only the arrival of a large army could force Cao Ren to withdraw his troops and leave.

"Cao's army withdrew, we survived, we survived."

"Haha, Wei Jun, who has no courage, can continue to kill if he has the ability.

I am here, waiting for you to kill."

"Hey, these Wei troops are so bad."

"God bless me and my ancestors bless me.

Fortunately, I was not killed by these ruffians who killed a thousand swords."

The Wei army withdrew, and waves of shouts immediately sounded outside the camp.

Countless Shu soldiers shouted loudly, and even many people who escaped from the sea of ​​​​fire cheered loudly, expressing their joy.

The waves got higher and higher, the atmosphere became more and more enthusiastic, and the formation immediately dispersed.

Seeing this, Huang Xu thought of another possibility.

Wouldn't it be terrible if Cao Ren deliberately retreated, letting the soldiers get carried away and then suddenly come back?

In view of this, Huang Xu organized his troops to prepare for the attack.

However, Huang Xu's worries were obviously unnecessary.

In less than an hour, Zhang Liao and Pang Tong led the army and rushed over, eliminating the danger.

After settling the people and the wounded, they began to clean the battlefield, and finally chose a new place to set up camp.

In the large tent of the Chinese army, several oil lamps emitted bright light.

Zhang Liao and Pang Tong sat at the top, and Huang Xu stood at the bottom.

In fact, the two men led their troops to hang behind Huang Xu.

After Huang Xu divided his troops, they quickly caught up with the 12,000 soldiers left by Huang Xu.

The army marched quickly and rushed to the Wei army camp, where they were able to save Huang Xu.

Even so, he suffered huge losses.

Pang Tong looked at Huang Xu, without a trace of a smile on his face, and said seriously: "Huang Xu, you were greedy for credit and rushed forward.

Eight thousand soldiers were killed and wounded more than 6,000, leaving less than 2,000 soldiers.

Tell me about this account.

How to calculate what kind of punishment should be received.”

Zhang Liao saw Pang Tong reprimanding Huang Xu but did not interrupt.

Huang Xu lowered his head, with a guilty look on his face, and whispered: "The failure of this battle was all the result of my greed for merit and being arbitrary.

If it weren't for my greed for merit, I wouldn't be in today's situation.

How will the military advisor punish me?

, the generals all had no complaints and were left to their own devices."

Pang Tong nodded and said, "In that case, according to the old agreement, twenty soldiers will be punished with sticks in public tomorrow."

"Thank you, military advisor."

Huang Xu bowed and agreed, but he didn't expect that Pang Tong was only responsible for the stick.

Pang Tong shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Don't be too busy thanking me.

Do you think this is the punishment for you?

The lives of six thousand soldiers were lost and such great damage was caused.

You have an unshirkable responsibility.

In addition to the responsibility of the rod, , you have to comfort the heroic souls of the six thousand soldiers.

This is a must.

At the same time, prepare a letter of repentance and write out all the mistakes you have made.

After I review it, I will read it aloud in front of all the soldiers. come out."

Huang Xu raised his eyebrows, with a bitter smile on his face.

Being beaten with twenty military sticks is an agreement and cannot be shied away from.

It was his duty to comfort the dead soldiers.

But it was absolutely embarrassing to repent in front of tens of thousands of people and have to read it out loud.

Huang Xu didn't dare to refuse, and he couldn't refuse.

Huang Xu clasped his fists and said: "I will obey your orders."

After speaking, Huang Xu turned around and left the tent, leaving Zhang Liao and Pang Tong behind to discuss matters.

Cao Ren led an army of 20,000 people to flexibly shuttle through Yuzhou.

It had become a cancer.

If it was not eliminated, it would definitely harm more counties.

Cao Ren was very cunning.

When he encountered the Shu army, he immediately retreated without confronting the Shu army head-on.

Such a difficult opponent was enough for Pang Tong to brace himself to deal with it.

The lights in the tent were still on, and the two figures were swaying gently in the lights.

As time passed, the two figures twisted from time to time, and the sound of discussion came out.

Early the next morning, the war drums were beaten in the army.

The soldiers of the Shu army gathered together and watched Huang Xu being scolded with a cane, watched Huang Xu comfort the dead soldiers, and finally listened to Huang Xu's sincere confession.

This was the first time such a thing had happened in the military, and it was also the first time in Huang Xu's life, which left a deep impression on his heart.

What happened this time will definitely be unforgettable for Huang Xu.

At Hulao Pass, Cao Cao and Wang Can are still facing off.

During this period, Cao Cao almost kept recuperating from illness.

His headaches were getting worse and worse, and he was in low spirits.

Many matters in the army were delegated to Sima Lang, Man Chong and others for their discretion.

After the news came that Li Tong surrendered and Han Hao was killed, Cao Cao remained silent and did not say a word.

Cao Ren led an army of 20,000 people to fight in Yuzhou.

Cao Cao finally spoke up and said that Cao Ren's method was worth learning from.

He could be flexible and changeable when the war was unfavorable, and he didn't have to follow rigid rules.

In short, Cao Ren is still resisting tenaciously, which is good news.

The Shu Army camp was always immersed in joy.

During this period, some generals could not bear their loneliness and prepared to go to war.

Especially when I saw the news coming back from Xuzhou, Yangzhou, Yuzhou and Bingzhou, I was even more affected.

I wanted to rush out and fight, and I also wanted to establish meritorious deeds and kill Cao Cao.

In the end, Wang Candu refused.

For now, Wang Can doesn't want to fight head-on with Cao Cao.

If Cao Cao retreated, he would immediately lead his army to follow him and stick to Cao Cao so that Cao Cao could not leave.

Wang Can is now waiting for Bingzhou, Yangzhou and Yuzhou to win.

After the victory of these three armies, the army will form a double-team situation.

By that time, Cao Cao was surrounded.

He wanted to resist but couldn't bring himself to resist.

He could capture Cao Cao without spending a single soldier.

This was Wang Can's plan.

According to this strategy, the confrontation between the two armies is suitable for the current situation.

However, the battle in Bingzhou did not go smoothly and no breakthrough was made. s: one of three updates;:
