The Jagged Emperor of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 352 Undefeated and Defeated ([-])

Hearing this, Gao Cheng finally regained his breath.After taking a long, deep breath, he regained his footing.

Gao Cheng sorted out his thoughts for a while, and asked, "General Xu Huang must have known about the fall of Xizhai before we did. Since he knew about our actions tonight, he also took actions to cooperate..."

When Gao Cheng said this, he suddenly let out a oops.Only then did he realize that even Xu Huang seemed to have fallen for Liu Chan's scheme at the same time, Zhao Yan's ability to escape from Anzhong was clearly a conspiracy!
Therefore, Gao Cheng also figured it out, the possibility of Xu Huang sending troops to retake Xizhai has become extremely slim!
——Is it really over now?
Gao Cheng's mind suddenly turned into a ball of paste, and only this idea could emerge.

Seeing that Gao Cheng hesitated to speak, Du Bin asked, "General Gao, what's wrong with you?"

Gao Cheng let out a sigh of relief, and said, "Where is General Xu Shang now? You take me to see him quickly. Oh, no, you quickly send someone to help me go to the front of the formation to give orders, and immediately retract all the siege troops. , waiting for my new order."

Du Bin nodded, and sent a guard to ride a fast horse to the front to convey Gao Cheng's order.Then, Du Bin took Gao Cheng to Xu Shang's place.

Immediately, Gao Cheng saw a corpse thrown down not far away, even its head was chopped off, blood flowed all over the ground, and the night wind sent the smell of blood a long way away, the death was really tragic, I don't know who did such a cruel thing.

Gao Cheng pointed to the corpse and asked Du Bin, "Who is the dead one?"

Du Bin told about Tu Guan's return to report the news, with a look of pity on his face.

Gao Cheng also sighed softly, obviously knowing that Xu Shang was venting his anger on others.If this Tu Guan hadn't come back to report the news, they would have to wait until the morning of tomorrow to learn the news of the fall of Xizhai.

From this point of view, not only is this Tu Guan not guilty, but he has also made contributions.However, now that Tu Guan is dead, in order to maintain the stability of the army's morale, even if Tu Guan has meritorious service, he can only regard it as a death that is not a pity.

Gao Cheng's heart moved, and he said to Du Bin: "This Tu Guan is a spy sent by the enemy army. Now he is killed by General Xu Shang. It is really not a pity to die. You hurry up and send someone to drag his body down."

Du Bin was taken aback when he heard that, and said, "General Gao, this, this..."

Of course Gao Cheng knew what Du Bin was thinking, and said anxiously, "Hurry up, don't dawdle..."

Du Bin had no choice but to call a few people to remove Tu Guan's body and head.

Only then did Gao Cheng walk towards Xu Shang, and found that Xu Shang was staring at the ground in a daze.He quickly stepped forward and called softly: "General..."

Only then did Xu Shang come to his senses and realized that the person who came was Gao Cheng.His spirit suddenly lifted, and he asked: "Gao Cheng, you are here, our Xizhai has fallen into the enemy's hands!" His words were not only full of grief and anger, but full of despair.

Seeing Xu Shang being so disrespectful, Gao Cheng sighed inwardly, what is going on with this Xu Shang, he is usually such a mighty person, why is he so depressed now after experiencing a defeat?
Gao Cheng persuaded: "General, you are the pillar of our army, so many of us are counting on you! You can't let this sink in, Liu Chan's army is eyeing us right now!"

Xu Shang smiled wryly and said, "Now that our back road has been cut off and we have become a bird in a cage, what else can we do?"

Gao Cheng said: "Perhaps General Xu Huang will send troops to retake Xizhai."

Xu Shang waved his hand and said, "Xu Huang himself has been tricked, how can he send troops to rescue us? Don't count on that."

Gao Cheng was taken aback when he heard that, Xu Shang actually called Xu Huang by his first name without distinction?It seemed that he was really confused.

Gao Cheng still said: "Although the hope is not great, if it is not good enough, we can enter the mountainous area to the north. I think Liu Chan's army is not very strong, and it will not be able to deal with us for a while."

Xu Shang said with a smile: "It's the middle of winter, and it's already snowing. We sent troops tonight without food and grass. Should I take you into the mountains to hunt and live? Do you think this is feasible?"

Gao Cheng sighed softly in his heart, at least General Xu Shang's mind is still good, and he is not confused.He had already thought of what he wanted.

Gao Cheng said again: "Then, General, we have only one way to go now, which is to return to the division immediately and take back the West Village. As for the Bainiuyi Fortress, let's leave it alone. Even if we take it down now, we still have to go We can only wait for the fate of being besieged by Liu Chan's army on all sides."

Xu Shang sighed and said, "Actually, I think so too. Go down and pass the order."

Gao Cheng didn't leave immediately, but said: "General, the last general has ordered the troops in front to withdraw. We can quickly retreat from Bainiu Town after we reorganize our troops."

Hearing this, Xu Shang nodded appreciatively to Gao Cheng.This person is indeed his most trusted general!

Bainiuyi Fortress, Liu Chan has been closely guarded by Baier Guards, Zuofu's rangers and a group of sword players, so there is no doubt about its safety.Therefore, he stayed at the top of the city and directed the battles everywhere.

However, as the battle intensified, and the casualties of his 2000 troops began to intensify.Liu Chan had no choice but to keep sending those Sun Lang troops who had retreated below the city, symbolically serving as a reserve team, to the top of the city to fill in the gaps.

At this moment, Liu Chan heard a rush of golden beeping sounded in the enemy's formation.Liu Chan was afraid that he heard it wrong, so he hurriedly asked Zuo Fu, Zhao Feng and others beside him, "Did you hear the sound of gold ringing from the city?"

Zhao Feng is highly skilled in martial arts, and Liu Chan's hearing power is naturally not comparable to that of Liu Chan, so he replied firmly: "It is the sound of the enemy's clinking gold."

Liu Chan looked at Zuo Fu and Shi Hui again.Both said that the enemy had indeed withdrawn from Mingjin.

Liu Chan was immediately overjoyed, and laughed loudly: "It's done, it's done, Guan Suo has now captured Xu Shangjun's Xizhai camp!"

Of course Zhao Feng was also happy in his heart, but how did the prince be sure that now General Guan Suo has led his army to capture the enemy's Xizhai?After all, the enemy army is still besieging the fortress. Even if General Guan Suo wants to send someone back to report, it is impossible for him to enter the fortress.

Zhao Feng then asked: "How did the son know?"

Liu Chan pointed to the city, and said triumphantly: "Because the enemy has begun to retreat! They were bound to win our Bainiuyi fortress tonight, but if they retreat hastily now, it can only explain one point. Xu Shang has already obtained the western fortress. The news of the fall of the village. Therefore, now that he has nowhere to go, he has no choice but to desperately return to the teacher and fight back to the camp of the West Village!"
