Lu Dynasty

Chapter 773 Wang Shu
After listening to the order, Zhao Yun and Pound looked at each other. Pound had been aggrieved for more than a day. Now that he had Pang Tong's attack order, he waved his sword and roared, "Xiliang army obeys the order, follow me!" Seeing our army, which hadn't taken the initiative to attack for a day, rushed up like wolves and tigers, Chen Dao, Wei Yan, and Sha Moke were shocked. They didn't dare to fight our army head-on.Wei Yan hurriedly ordered the troops to retreat, but most of their troops were infantry, how could they be faster than our army's cavalry?Wouldn't it be a joke if two legs could outrun four?Originally, Chen Dao wanted to stay behind, but Wei Yan and Sha Moke knew that staying was not a setback but a death.Although Chen Dao is not good at martial arts, he focuses on resourcefulness.As the saying goes: Thousands of troops are easy to get, but one general is hard to find.Chen Dao is undoubtedly that general!Looking at the fierce Pang De, Wei Yan decided to abandon the army.

It is true that thousands of troops are easy to obtain, but generals are hard to find. Now that we have made up our minds, we naturally cannot hesitate. If we wait for our army to encircle us, it will be difficult for them to fight out.In Wei Yan's eyes, [-] troops are worthless, whether they are exchanged for Shamoke or Chen Dao.Therefore, Wei Yan didn't say anything, but yelled: "Quickly retreat, there is no need to be late!" Sha Moke and Chen Dao naturally understood Wei Yan's meaning, and they also knew that being behind was death, so the three of them stopped talking , just desperately beat the horse and gallop.

Two thousand troops is really not much to say, and our army basically cleaned up in just a quarter of an hour.But after cleaning up the more than 2000 people, Wei Yan and the three had long since disappeared!Looking at Wei Yan and the others who disappeared without a trace, Pound said angrily, "Oh! We should launch the attack sooner!"

Zhao Yun looked at the annoyed Pang De with a smile and said, "Let the master hear Ling Ming's words, he will be angry!"

"Why?" Pound was very puzzled. In fact, he had a lot of puzzles about my policies.Just like this time, it would be very cost-effective in Pound's eyes if he could expend some troops to kill Wei Yan, Shamoke and others.But I was in a daze to delay the fighter plane in order to reduce casualties of soldiers, and let Sha Moke, Wei Yan and others run away.

"Perhaps in your opinion, it is easy to get a thousand troops, but hard to find a general, but my lord doesn't think so. Not to mention the current situation, whether we can kill one of Shamoke and others, even if we can, if it is for This loss of a large number of troops is not a credit to the lord!" Seeing that Pang De still didn't understand, Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Sha Moke and others are loyal to Liu Bei, so they are very precious to Liu Bei, but to us. But it is worthless. But which one of the soldiers under your command is not loyal to the big man, loyal to the lord? The lord has always defended his shortcomings, if you said that you exchanged the lives of the soldiers for the lives of Wei Yan and others, would the lord not be angry?"

Pound thought for a while and smiled, "Thank you General for your teaching, Lingming understands!" In fact, Zhao Yun's words were not talking about soldiers, but reminding Pound to be loyal.Seeing Pound's understanding expression, Zhao Yun was very pleased.

Zhuge Liang and Liu Bei stayed up all night, and they all saw the fire in Xinye.Liu Bei was a little excited, but Zhuge Liang didn't know how to do it, and there was a trace of uneasiness in his heart.At last it was daylight and the sun was up.Zhuge Liang calculated the time, Wei Yan and others should have returned long ago.But until now no one was seen, Zhuge Liang's heart sank to the bottom of the valley.Suddenly, a small school came to report: "My lord, military advisor, the three generals are back!"

"Quick! Please!" Zhuge Liang was overjoyed. He was not afraid of losing troops, but he was afraid of losing generals.With Liu Bei's reputation, a few thousand team headquarters is indeed a trivial matter, but if any of the three of Wei Yan had a problem, the loss would be great.But when Zhuge Liang saw the embarrassed Wei Yan and the other three, he couldn't help asking: "How did you do this?"

"Hmph!" Wei Yan snorted and did not speak, but Chen Dao smiled wryly, "Mr. Qi, we should have waited for Lu Feng's army to enter Xinye and light the fire. Who knew that Lu Feng's army would camp outside Xinye City. After nightfall, the wind is so strong, Zhao Yun The troops were not allowed to enter the city. In desperation, I led troops to lure Pang De into the city, hoping that they would lose some troops. But I never thought that our army would be sent to the bank of the Baihe River by him. When General Wei opened the gate to release the water, Our troops were by the river. But Pang De seemed to know that our army had an ambush and was going to release water. He only shot arrows by the river, but did not approach. When General Wei arrived, Zhao Yun also led a large army to kill! As a result, we There were only more than 1000 people, and they were not opponents of Lu Feng's army. For some reason, Lu Feng's army changed their attitude of not pursuing and sent troops to chase after them. In the end, only the three of us escaped by chance!"

Zhuge Liang wanted to slap himself after hearing this. He knew that the other party had Pang Tong, but he forgot to tell Chen Dao and others to retreat immediately if their plan fails.Zhuge Liang sighed and said, "My lord, we have no chance in Jingbei. We should withdraw our troops to Jingnan and send someone to contact Shuzhong! I heard that Liu Zhang has won Ma Chao recently. If we don't act again, I'm worried that Yizhou will also be taken by Lu." The peak has taken over!"

Liu Bei has long suffered from failure, and Zhuge Liang's failure is nothing more than a small defeat in his eyes.Liu Bei said with a smile: "There is no need for a military adviser to do this. Victory or defeat is a common matter in military affairs. Let's go back to Jingnan now, find a way to contact Liu Zhang, and resist Lu Feng together."

"What about Jiang Xia?" Wei Yan heard Zhuge Liang meant to give up Jingbei, but Jiang Xia was also in Jingbei!
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It's easy! When we go back, let Gongzi Qi move the people of Jiangxia to Jingnan, and then leave an empty Jiangxia city for Lu Feng!"

Wei Yan hummed and stopped talking. He also knew that the four counties in southern Jing were sparsely populated.As long as you don't leave people to me, leaving an empty city is not reconciled to Wei Yan, but it's still passable.However, Liu Bei didn't think so. He smiled at Zhuge Liang: "Military Master, since we don't want to stay, we might as well burn Jiangxia down! Without Jiangxia City, it should be much easier for us to counterattack Jingzhou!"

"My lord, you seem to have forgotten! There is Jiangdong next to Jingnan! It's easy for us, Jiangdong is easier than us!" Zhuge Liang shook his head and said: "Although we and Jiangdong are allies, our strength is too weak. Even if we beat back Without Lu Feng, we still have to guard against Jiangdong!"

Liu Bei was startled by Zhuge Liang's words, and he quickly laughed and said, "What the military adviser said is absolutely true! Lu Feng is really my enemy!"

"Lu Feng is the enemy of the princes of the world, not the enemy of the lord alone!" Seeing that Liu Bei felt good about himself, Zhuge Liang didn't know what to say.Just relying on Liu Bei's power, why should he be my enemy?Zhuge Liang smiled and said, "Didn't Your Majesty order us to help Liu Zhang put down Zhang Lu? Let's go back quickly! Don't let Lu Feng take the opportunity again!"
