My Ji Han Dynasty was prosperous in martial arts, but I have always convinced people with virtue

Chapter 93
Cao Cao made a timely decision, avoiding the risk of Wei's tens of thousands of troops being annihilated by the Shu army.

In the Battle of Nanyang, Wei Guo's Third Route Army in Nanyang only retreated two routes.

Both Cao Cao's main force and Liu Bei's main force suffered heavy losses.

After the siege of Wancheng was broken, the multi-route army of the Shu Kingdom jointly pursued it and did not stop until it was under the Kunyang Fortress.

During this period, countless were seized.

In terms of the battle losses of the two armies, there is actually not much difference.

But strategically, Wei Guo was completely defeated.

Wei State's 30 troops wanted to recapture Guanzhong, but they stopped at Nanyang and withdrew without even taking down Wancheng.

Wei's army, only [-] troops from Tongguan Road, returned safely to Luoyang without any loss.

However, the food and grass consumed during the period were innumerable, and the work was useless.

After this battle, Cao Cao returned to Xuchang and never mentioned the matter of seizing Guanzhong, but put all his energy on internal affairs.

"Have they all returned?"

On the sick bed, Cao Cao asked with a pale face.

Cheng Yu stepped forward and fanned Cao Cao.

"Everything that can be returned has been returned, but Le Jin's situation is not very good."

Cao Cao fell silent and asked instead.

"Where's Liu Beijun?"

"They chased Kunyang Sai and stopped chasing. Yesterday, they had already retreated. Our army suffered heavy losses in this battle."

"Liu Bei's side can't get better either."

Cao Cao was very excited when he said this, a blush appeared on his pale face.

Cheng Yu looked at Cao Cao, feeling a little helpless in his heart.At this point, Cao Cao still refused to admit defeat.

"Hateful, it's only one step away from killing Liu Bei."

Regardless of whether Liu Bei or Cao Cao is dead, the war in Nanyang will not be what it is now.

However, both of them survived, and the situation was completely different.

Zhuge Liang was ordered by Liu Bei to go out to the commander-in-chief of the Shu army, and defeated the scattered troops of the Wei army in Nanyang.

Although the main force of the Wei army has been preserved, in the direction of Nanyang, it has no strength advantage over the Shu army, so it can only return to Kunyang and maintain its defensive position.

The Shu army did not continue to attack.

Although they won and saved Nanyang, they also paid a considerable price. The area around Wancheng was almost in ruins and the fields were barren.

In order to support this military operation, both sides consumed a lot of supplies.

It's not good for anyone to keep fighting.

"But almost, Liu Bei also killed the lord."

Cheng Yu's words calmed down Cao Cao's emotions.

Cao Cao didn't feel angry after hearing such unpleasant words, but felt very at ease in his heart.

"What's going on in the country?"

"Your Majesty has done a good job. Although this battle has had some impact, overall, the territory is fairly stable."

"I'm not worried about Zihuan's ability when it comes to Wenzhi. It's just that when it comes to military strategy, he's far behind."

Of Cao Cao's sons, only Cao Zhang has achieved military success.

For their strengths and weaknesses, Cao Cao has a mirror in his heart.

Cao Cao considered comprehensively, and only Cao Pi could stabilize the situation after him, so he made Cao Pi his son.

"As for the matter of military strategy, the generals of the Cao family and the Xiahou family will help the son, so the king does not need to worry."

Cao Cao nodded.

"Let Cao Ren stay in Luoyang, and Cao Zhen will follow. In addition, send Cao Hong and Cao Xiu to Shouchun, and let Xia Houshang go to Jicheng."

Cheng Yu understood that Cao Cao was training Cao Pi's future team in the major military regions.

"I understand!"

Cheng Yu wanted to leave, but when he did, Cao Cao continued to give orders.

"Send more spies to Guanzhong to see what Liu Chan is doing?"

Liu Chan?
-
Changan.

The fighting in Nanyang ceased, and Liu Bei took command.

When the frame was about to reach Chang'an, Liu Bei was a little anxious.

In the carriage, Liu Bei tidied up his clothes and asked Zhuge Liang who was beside him.

"Kong Ming, I'm fine like this!"

When Liu Bei fought Cao Cao, he suffered serious internal injuries.Even if it is well adjusted, it will only live for a few years.

Zhuge Liang saw Liu Bei's appearance in his eyes, how could he not know that Liu Bei was afraid that Liu Chan would see it.

"Don't worry, my lord, everything is fine."

"That's good!"

In front of Chang'an City, hundreds of officials greeted him, but Liu Chan was not the only one.

Only after asking did he know that Liu Chan didn't come out to greet him at all, and is now in Weiyang Palace.

"This Shuzi, he's getting fat, and I didn't even come to greet him when he came back."

Liu Bei looked at the Yitian Sword, which was prepared as a trophy beside him. He originally wanted to show off in front of Liu Chan.

Lao Liu was a little angry, not like this.

He came to Weiyang Palace full of anger, looked at the gate, stopped for a long time, suppressed his anger, smiled on his face, and walked into the palace with a sword box in his arms.

"Adou, look what I brought back, Cao Cao's Yitian Sword."

Liu Bei stepped into the gate, and Liu Chan was the only one in the cold palace with a cold face.

"Father is really good at getting all of Cao Cao's sabers."

"That's right, don't look at who your father is! Cao Mengde, what can you do to me? His 10,000+ army was beaten to pieces by me, and only a few of them went back. Look, he is hiding in Xuchang now and dare not come out up.

You often say that my military strategy is not as good as Cao Cao, do you now know that you are wrong? "

"You still say it!"

Liu Chan looked at Liu Bei, his father, and asked.

"Why didn't you get on the boat?"

Liu Bei was speechless to answer, and Liu Chan's emotions couldn't help showing.

"Back then, Cao Cao had already lost. You are already quite old, what are you still fighting for?"

Liu Bei looked at the child in front of him, his flesh and blood, with a smile on his face.

"Don't worry, your father and I are stiff, and there is nothing wrong."

Liu Bei raised his hand and stroked Liu Chan's head.A rare gentleness appeared on the face of this tyrannical hero.

"I thought you were a stone man, you can't cry!"

"I didn't cry!"

Liu Chan wiped the corners of his eyes, his little face was red, but tears still overflowed.

"Adou, to tell you the truth, when I fought Cao Mengde back then, my thought was, even if I died, wouldn't you still be here? But Cao Mengde is dead, what can his useless sons do? climate?"

After Liu Bei finished speaking, he couldn't help but mocked.

"I have fought against Cao Mengde for a lifetime, and I have been unbeaten so far, but the days to come are still long."

Liu Chan wiped his tears and looked at Liu Bei.

"Father, don't worry, I will take care of Wei Guo."

Such a short sentence is more effective than any panacea.Liu Bei laughed out loud after hearing this, and the soreness all over his body healed in an instant.

"Good Dude, Dad has such a strong body, he can't go out to fight again. But I can still take care of other things. You just let it go, and Dad will protect you from behind."

In the 24th year of Jian'an, Liu Bei moved his capital to Chang'an.Also, Prince Liu Chan is in charge of state affairs.

Since then, Wei and Shu have entered a stalemate.
