Chapter 409

"Mr. Li Ru, it's fine if you let the army not pursue it. Why don't you take advantage of this opportunity to raid Hongnong or Sili area when you have such a fighter?" Xiahou Dun asked Li Ru in confusion, because Li Ru had been marching during the day today Before ordering to slow down, don't be too hasty.

Li Ru smiled lightly, showing an old sinister smile, and explained: "General Xiahou, do you think we should be worried, or Zhuge Liang? Is the current main force of Hanwu Chen Bing near Hanzhong, or is Chen Bing in the northeast of Jingzhou? Furthermore, the generals sent people to guard Zhuyang were assassinated, and part of the money and food in Zhuyang was taken away. Now is not the time to rush to pursue. The main force of the Han army has not retreated, and the vitality of the army has not been damaged, but Baima Yicong suffered heavy losses. With such a force retreating to the Sili area and Hongnong, how can our army attack?"

"On the contrary, Liu Bei, Zhuge Liang, and Xu Shu's disciples must be more anxious. Han Wu's protracted war has exhausted all the food and grass they have accumulated this year. If the battle is not over, I am afraid that the people will be angry. The one who should be anxious is Zhuge Liang. And Liu Bei, not us."

After hearing Li Ru's words, Xiahou Dun felt like a choke in his throat, because the surprise attack on Zhuyang was his greatest shame and fault.But for Xiahoudun, he obviously sent the most careful soldier Du Xi to guard Zhuyang very seriously, but he didn't expect that he would all die in the hands of Xue Rengui.

"However, the eldest son Cao Ang is dead. If the responsibility is lowered, I will not take the credit!" Xiahou Dun slapped the table, obviously trying to let Li Ru understand that he must speed up.

Li Ru smiled darkly, and said in a strange tone: "Tsk tsk tsk! General Xiahou, do you really think so in your heart? Although Cao Ang is the eldest son, what use is he for? This is not a crime of punishment. As long as the general sends a letter to the eldest son Cao Zihuan, why worry about the prime minister blaming him? Cao Ang is just an abandoned son! The situation is already obvious."

Li Ru's words were so harsh and straightforward that Xiahou Dun could only keep silent.After all, what Li Ru said is not wrong, the people who should really worry are Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang.

"In this case, according to what the military adviser said, stop marching tomorrow and rest for a day. As for Zhuge Liang, I will not send anyone to contact. Let him attack Hongnong by himself. I also want to see what strategy Zhuge Liang has. Take down Hongnong." Xiahou Dun narrowed his eyes, and he began to count Zhuge Liang.Moreover, this is a conspiracy and not a conspiracy, Zhuge Liang will not have a way to deal with it.

In the Jizhou army camp in the north of Xinye, Han Wu was anxious to discuss whether to withdraw the army.

Xue Rengui also made meritorious service in this southward battle, which was enough to convince the crowd.The other soldiers all made some contributions, but none of them were major contributions. After all, Xinye City was violated and conquered.

Pang Tong stood up first and said to Han Wu: "My lord, I don't think there is any need to worry about withdrawing troops. The Jizhou army should withdraw step by step, leaving tens of thousands of soldiers in the end to frighten Liu Bei. General Zhang Ying should still guard this place, and General Xue Rengui will guard this place as a commander. Guard Hongnong in the northern part of Xinye, and sit in Wancheng. Hongnong should still be guarded by General Chen Qingzhi, and this three-point line can resist the combined forces of Liu and Cao."

Pang Tong's deployment of troops was perfect. He forcibly pulled out an impenetrable line of defense from Jizhou to Xuchang!Moreover, Tai Shici guarded Yanzhou, which was the second line of defense. Even if Zhuge Liang had any tricks, it would not be enough to conquer the two lines of defense at the same time.

"Well, that's pretty good! In that case, according to what Junjun Pang said, the army will set off early tomorrow morning, and my Chinese army and the bloodthirsty tiger guards will return to Jizhou first. Tomorrow, General Chen Qingzhi will return from Dangyang, and the white robe army will wipe out the army. Cao Ang, I will reward you a lot." Han Wu waved his hand and told the soldiers to go down and get ready to break out of the camp.

Afternoon in Shinno Castle
"Han Wu is really going to withdraw his troops?" Xu Shu asked the spy in disbelief. He didn't believe that Han Wu would choose to withdraw his troops.Obviously the real battle had just begun, and when it was time to fight for troops and food, he would choose to withdraw.

"It's absolutely true! The Han army is really packing up the luggage, but there is something strange. There are nearly ten thousand people building a new camp near the Han army camp. There are almost ten thousand people." The spies continued to report the situation, and Xu Shu finally understood. .

Guan Yu also narrowed his eyes and sighed, "So that's how it is!"

Xu Shu reacted faster than Guan Yu, and he completely understood what Han Wu was planning.

"Damn it! It's obvious that we can start to wear down the elite troops of the Jizhou Army, but they retreat within a few days of their strong attack, and close as soon as they are good. It's really hard to deal with it. It's obvious that Cao Cao and our troops have been fighting at the same time, but they are still so calm, step by step! Han Wu, it's hard to deal with!" Xu Shu was filled with emotion, and he finally knew why Yuan Shao and Gongsun Zan were so easily dealt with by Han Wu.

With Han Wu's strategy and insight, it is really difficult to deal with.

He is quite calm in his bones, no matter how likely he is to win, he will not be aggressive.However, some strategists will be able to see the opportunities in the radicalization, and Han Wu will readily accept the strategies of the strategists.Whether it is advancing or retreating, Han Wu has made the right choice, which is really impeccable.

Guan Yu narrowed his eyes and said, "Military Master, Han Wu led his troops to retreat, should he lead his troops to pursue?"

Xu Shu narrowed his eyes, and after thinking carefully, he said: "Chasing... No! General Guan, I will give you five thousand elites to rescue Zhuge Liang. Although Kong Ming is resourceful, I am worried that something will happen. If he didn't show up, I was afraid that Kong Ming would stumble. Xiahou Dun is not trustworthy, he is Cao Cao's general after all, if he stabbed him in the back, Kong Ming would be in danger."

Guan Yu was thoughtful, he seemed to have seen the Hongnong fighter, but he also understood that behind this fighter was danger.

The Jizhou army is like a huge monster, and some of them are guarding all sides.There are not many elites under Zhuge Liang's command, almost all are recruits, and it is really easy to be counted.

In Zhang Fei's barracks in Dangyang, the messengers sent by Xu Shu brought Liu Bei's male and female swords and ordered Zhang Fei to stand still.

Zhang Fei's arm was still aching. After he snorted coldly, he said angrily, "What is this Xu Yuanzhi thinking? Han Wu has already withdrawn his troops and hasn't pursued him. How can there be such a good chance in the future? Damn, if it wasn't for the big brother's weapons In his hands, the eldest brother asked him to control me, and I ignored him."

"Uncle, don't be impatient. It's better for us to be calm. When the Han army at Dangyang Chengguan retreats, we will directly take over Dangyang Chengguan. In this way, our army and Jiang Xia will have contact. Isn't it a credit for our eyes? "Liu Feng hurriedly comforted Zhang Fei, he knew that Zhang Fei was eager.

Hearing that his nephew was trying to persuade him, Zhang Fei sighed helplessly, that was all he could do.After all, the elder brother's double-strand swords were sent over, which meant that the elder brother ordered him himself.

Big brother's general orders cannot be disobeyed.
