Chapter 782 The Liaodong Army Retreats

"My lord."

Wei Qing, Xue Wanche, Xia Houyuan and other generals of the Youzhou Army came out of the gate of Ji County to meet Chutian.

These generals were more or less wounded.

The battle in Youzhou was even more tragic than the battle in Mangshan.

Chutian still had an advantage in Mangshan, while the Youzhou army was on the defensive.

"Thank you for your hard work. All the defenders of the city, like the soldiers who participated in the battle of Mangshan, recorded their military exploits."

Chu Tian saw that the generals of the Youzhou army were injured, and knew that they had to go through life and death to defend Youzhou.

Chu Tian's eyes fell on Xia Liang again. She went to Ji County in person and led the Shenji Battalion and Youzhou Army to defend Ji County.

"your hands……"

Chu Tian found that Xia Liang's hand was injured.

"It's no big deal if you get injured while defending the city."

It doesn't matter if it's cold in summer.

"I've made a note of this matter, and I will have to pay the price after Mingguan."

Chu Tian thinks that he is not that big, and he still has to find the place that should be recovered.

Not only Xia Liang, Huo Qing, Qin Liangyu and the others also came to participate in the defense of Jixian County, as well as the rather exaggerated Bulge.

Among all the people, Wutugu stands out from the crowd, like a hill, which is quite shocking.

"I……"

Huo Qing didn't know how to address Chu Tian, ​​after all, she hadn't obtained a formal identity yet.

"You also have achievements in this battle. I will mention this to Huo An. He should be happy because you have grown."

"He won't..."

Huo Qing pouted.

Qin Liangyu was injured because of defending the city, and there is still a shallow scratch on his face.

"Have the Nanman's white-armed soldiers and rattan armored soldiers come to defend the city? It seems that I still owe Mu Ke a favor."

Chu Tian was quite grateful to the Nanman lord for sending reinforcements.

When the surrounding princes coveted the rich land in the Central Plains in the farming era, it would be good to have reinforcements arrive.

The surrounding princes are thinking that after Chutian's power collapses, they can replace it.

Qin Liangyu said modestly: "His Royal Highness King Xia, our lord has received accurate news that the new Yizhou Shepherd Liu Bei is secretly contacting the dignitaries and tribes of Qianwei, Zangzang, and Yuejuan, intending to annex our lord's territory. Therefore, Wu Tugu and I must return to Nanban."

Chu Tian's eyes changed.

Liu Bei was really tenacious, and he could stir up troubles wherever he went. He fought against the Southern Barbarians in the south and Hanzhong in the north, offending all of Chutian's allies.

"Liu Yan died of illness, Liu Zhang was weak, and Zhang Dao's Hanzhong Army lacked a suitable commander after all. Liu Bei's power expanded wildly in Yizhou, and he was supported by the local gentry. I will enter Yizhou in the future and teach him how to behave."

For Liu Bei, who possesses the charisma of personality, Chu Tian has nothing to do with him for a while, and Chu Tian is temporarily unable to distract himself from the internal struggle in Yizhou.

"If Nanman is in danger of being annexed, you can freely enter and leave the Xia Palace to ask for reinforcements. Nanman cannot be taken by Liu Bei."

Chu Tian is not very willing to see Liu Bei get the special arms of the Nanman. At this time, he needs to use Mu Ke, Qin Liangyu, Wu Tugu and others to contain Liu Bei in the Nanman, so that Liu Bei has no time to fight out of Yizhou.

In the north of Liu Bei, Zhang Dao's Hanzhong can also temporarily contain Liu Bei.

Zhang Dao and Mu Ke controlled Liu Bei's two expansion directions from the south and north respectively.

After Xia Liang broke the siege in Youzhou, he also let Qin Liangyu go back: "The Nanman's greatest reliance on the Yizhou army is not the generals and strength, but the terrain. The Yizhou army may not be able to adapt to the difficult environment of the Nanman. The only thing worth noting is the attitude of the Nanman tribe. Liu Bei's military adviser Wang Meng is good at using tactics, and he will try to drive a wedge between the Nanman tribe and Mu Ke, or use tactics such as fire attack, Remember."

Qin Liangyu nodded: "My lord has friendship with the Nanman tribe for several years, so they may not betray."

Chu Tian shook his head: "A few years of friendship may not guarantee all loyalty. The forest is big, and there are all kinds of birds."

Qin Liangyu and Wu Tugu led the remaining white pole soldiers and rattan armor soldiers directly back to Nanman.

The white pole soldiers and rattan armor soldiers suffered huge losses, losing half of their troops.

"Try not to take any chances next time."

Chu Tian gently held Xia Liang's injured hand. If the stone thrown by the trebuchet hit Xia Liang head-on, there might be a vacancy in Princess Xia's position.

"Guanzhong hasn't been taken down yet, so I have to take a risk."

"Guanzhong is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Next time, we will attack from the two directions of Hedong and Tongguan, or even directly capture Liangzhou, forming a three-sided encirclement of Guanzhong. Guanzhong has no danger to defend, like searching for something."

"It doesn't need to be so full of big words."

"It's only in front of you. We are going to recover Changping County, Juyongguan, and Shanggu County."

Chu Tian and Xia Liang negotiated to take back the entire counties and counties in Youzhou occupied by the Liaodong Army.

"Their relationship is really good..."

Xiao Chuo still had Mo Xie Sword hanging on his waist, so he handed Mo Xie Sword back to Xia Liang.

...

In Yuyang County, Sun Chuanting and Lan Yu, who attacked here, received a notice from Mingguan, asking them to return to the sphere of influence of Mingguan and temporarily avoid the edge.

"The Qin army is in Mangshan, and our lord is in Jixian County. We have lost a lot of troops and need time to rest."

Sun Chuanting then ordered the Xianbei and Wuhuan cavalry to retreat.

"Our Murong tribe sacrificed a lot of troops to deal with Cao Cao, and now they let us retreat? The King of Qin in Guanzhong has not yet made up his mind to fight to the death with King Xia? Only 200,000 people died, so why not be afraid! We can only press all the troops, Only by fighting for the male and female can we have a chance to die and survive!"

Murong Ba was very annoyed when he received the order to withdraw his troops.

In his opinion, neither Lao Qin nor Ming Guan had the courage to spend a lot of money.

The three princes seem to be testing each other's details at present. Otherwise, if the three major princes really fight, it is definitely not as simple as killing two hundred thousand troops. Even if one million troops are killed, the possibility is extremely high.

Murong Ba led the iron cavalry of Dragon City of Yan State to attack Xiahou Dun, causing Xiahou Dun to be seriously injured.

However, Cao Cao's tiger and leopard rider also wounded Murong Ba's other son, Murong Bao.

"withdraw troops!"

Although Cao Cao's tiger and leopard army repeatedly targeted Murong Ba's son, Murong Ba chose to withdraw his troops.

Without the support of Mingguan's army, the Murong tribe could not compete with the Youzhou army.

"Are we leaving like this?"

Ta Dun, the leader of the Wuhuan who teamed up with Murong Ba, couldn't believe it.

The situation of Liaoxi Army in Yuyang County is very good. Murong Ba and his sons rely on the iron cavalry of Dragon City of Yan Kingdom to fight against Cao Cao's tiger and leopard army. Yes, it seems possible to win.

Zhou Yafu was besieged by Sun Chuanting, Lan Yu, Yuwen Xianbei, Duan Xianbei, and two Wuhuan leaders, and it was only a matter of time before the camp was captured.

But Mingguan took the initiative to avoid Chutian's sharpness, and seemed to be a little afraid of Chutian.

After all, Mingguan's Liaodong Legion is an absolute elite. Once all of them are lost in Youzhou, Mingguan will be completely unable to control the servants of various tribes.

"If you don't want to die, you stay here."

Murong Ba said something indifferently, and Ta Dun obediently followed Murong Ba to leave in the end.

He also knew that without Murong Ba, the most capable Xianbei warlord among the Xianbei generals, he would have been suddenly killed by Cao Cao's Tiger and Leopard Cavalry.

"I'm really not reconciled, my brother will definitely avenge you."

Duan Pidun, the leader of the Duan Xianbei, said to the seriously injured Duan Wenyang.

Duan Wenyang was the number one fierce general of the Duan family Xianbei, and also a deadly soldier who dared to charge into the battle. His force was above 90, but in the duel with Li Guang, he was shot by Li Guang with a bow and arrow and almost died.

"Brother, Li Guang took revenge for hurting me. When I recover from my injury, I will personally report it."

Several layers of gauze were wrapped around Duan Wenyang's body. The serious injury had not healed, and the pain from time to time made Duan Wenyang gnash his teeth.

As the number one fierce general of the Duan clan Xianbei, he was shot and wounded by Li Guang in front of the two armies, which made him lose face within the Duan clan. What's more, Li Guang is not the number one general of the Chutian faction.

"Heal your injury, we will have a chance."

After Duan Pidun gave the order, the cavalry of Duan's Xianbei began to withdraw to the east.

"Ming Wang asked us to withdraw our troops, preserve our strength, and prepare for the next decisive battle. I really don't know how Ming Ming thinks about it. This time, he still chooses to endure."

Yuwen Yidougui, the leader of Yuwen Xianbei, also received an order to withdraw his troops.

A military general of the Yuwen Xianbei tribe said: "This time may be a test among the three princes and kings for each other's cards, and to determine the positions of other princes. When all parties clarify each other's cards, the next big battle may be real. It was a battle of life and death, and there was only one survivor."

"What you said is very reasonable. Our Yuwen family has a talent like you. It is really our Yuwen family's luck. Murong and Duan's two major Xianbei tribes don't take us Yuwen Xianbei seriously, but our Yuwen Xianbei is not They can be ignored."

Yuwen Yidougui looked at this general. It was this Xianbei general who almost broke through the city defended by Zhou Yafu. If Li Guang hadn't shot and killed his general, this general might have succeeded in capturing the city.

"Let's go back to Liaoxi for a while to rest. Since King Ming is just a large-scale temptation, there is no need to sacrifice the lives of our tribal people for King Ming."

Yuwen Yidougui chose to withdraw his troops.

"The Xianbei cavalry and the Wuhuan cavalry want to escape, we can't let them escape!"

Li Guangzong wanted to chase the Liaoxi army, but Zhou Yafu stopped him: "No, there are generals who are good at planning and have a large number of troops. Once you chase them, you will be captured."

"How can I be captured by a foreign race!"

"This is a military order!"

Zhou Yafu, who was usually calm, also became annoyed, and Li Guang was a little timid after being stared at by Zhou Yafu.

Zhou Yafu watched the cavalry leave outside the city without moving.

"They didn't come out of the city to chase them. It seems that ambushes are useless. Zhou Yafu is really cautious."

The generals of Yuwen Xianbei were greatly regretted.

In the Northern War, the generals of the Xia army were more difficult than the other. It seemed that the Liaodong army was attacking fiercely, but the Xia army actually lost less troops than the Liaodong army.
