Chapter 274 Withdrawal of Jiangdong
Seeing that the army under his command was close to being defeated, but Gao Shun's trapped camp looked like it had a lot of strength left, Xiahou Dun's expression turned ugly.
"Yuan Rang, let's withdraw!" Cao Chun saw that the situation was not going well and rushed to Xiahou Dun's side to dissuade him.
"Don't withdraw!" Xiahou Dun shouted, turning to look at Cao Chun: "Zihe, if you lead the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry to charge again, I don't believe this iron turtle can't be beaten!"
Just as the two of them were talking, many of Xiahou Dun's soldiers began to flee, gradually breaking out of the embankment. At the same time, a black shadow appeared on the horizon in the distance.
"Yuan Rang, withdraw! The enemy's reinforcements are coming!" Cao Chun shouted anxiously when he saw this.
"I won't withdraw! Cao Zihe, I order you to lead the charge!" Xiahou Dun was already red-eyed at this time, and he had the intention of going into battle himself and fighting the enemy to the death!
"Yuan Rang!" Cao Chun stared at Xiahou Dun and shouted.
"The enemy force is strong! We must withdraw!"
However, Xiahou Dun had already fallen into madness at this time and could not listen to these words at all. As soon as he pulled the reins in his hands, he was ready to ride his horse into the battlefield.
"bump!"
Seeing that words were of no use, Cao Chun took advantage of Xiahou Dun's unpreparedness and slashed Xiahou Dun on the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious.
"The whole army retreats!"
Cao Chun shouted.
When Xiahou Dun's soldiers saw this, their last line of defense was defeated, and they all retreated in panic.
Seeing this, Gao Shun did not pursue pursuit. Although the marching speed of the trapped camp under his command was not slow, it was still difficult to catch up with these defeated troops who had abandoned their armor.
Cao Chun's tiger and leopard cavalry were surrounding him, and Gao Shun was unwilling to cause trouble. He came here just to rescue Zhang Liao, Wenpin and others, and he killed more than 10,000 troops and hundreds of tiger and leopard cavalry, which was already a harvest.
It's quite abundant, so there's no need to bother with such a small number of miscellaneous soldiers.
Seeing Gao Shun completely ignoring them, he turned around and left in neat formation with his men trapped in the camp. Cao Chun breathed a sigh of relief, but also secretly vowed to work hard to train and perfect the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry when he went back, and look for Gao Shunyi again in the future.
Avenge the shame!
Before meeting Gao Shun, Cao Chun thought that the tiger and leopard cavalry under his command were the strongest elites in the world. After all, in the north where there are few rivers, the cavalry's combat power far exceeds that of infantry and archers. Among the cavalry, the elite
There are only a few legions.
Dong Zhuo's Flying Bear Army is now in the hands of Li Que and Guo Si who are waiting for death. It is regarded as a hidden secret. Gongsun Zan's white horse Yi Cong was destroyed by Yuan Shao. The entire Central Plains is dominated by their tiger and leopard cavalry.
However, today's battle was like a slap in the face, waking up Cao Chun. He underestimated the princes of the world too much!
The trapped camp under Gao Shun is so powerful, so if he encounters the Xianden Death Soldier, who is known as the nemesis of the cavalry, will he not even have any scum left?
After all, the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry are just elites selected from Cao Cao's army. Which of the other princes cannot form such a force? Whether it is Yuan Shao's Euphorbias or Liu Bei's Baijie elites, which one is not among the elites?
The elite?
Yang Xiu held the reins with his left hand and drove the horse forward slowly. He held the reins of the other horse with his right hand, and immediately lay down the weak Fazheng.
"Senior Brother, don't worry now! I have already said that General Gao Shun will be fine by himself." Looking at the slowly approaching, almost unscathed army trapped in the camp, and the indifferent figure, Yang Xiu relaxed
road.
Fazheng closed his eyes when he heard this and fell into coma. Yang Xiu didn't hear a response for a long time. He turned his face and looked at it, and suddenly said speechlessly: "I can't bear it now? It's really fragile. It seems that Master Jia will have to wait for more when he goes back."
Exercise exercises you,”
Yang Xiu could be said to be very disdainful of Fazheng's delicate mental power, which fell into coma after just using the secret method for half an hour.
If it had been him, at most the pain in his head would have subsided after a period of time. Having endured countless blows, his mental strength was indeed inferior to Fazheng's, but in terms of resilience, he was much stronger than Fazheng.
Under Jia Xu's training, he was at full load every day, and his mental energy was always in a state of overdraft. As a result, he got used to it.
"General Gao Shun, thank you for your hard work." Yang Xiu looked at the ordinary-looking general in front of him and said with a little respect.
He knew how terrifying this seemingly ordinary man was, and he was sincerely convinced of Gao Shun even if he was as rebellious as he was inside.
"Serving the Lord, why is it hard work? Is Xiaozhi okay?" Gao Shun said calmly.
"It's okay. Senior brother saw that the general was okay, so he put down his worries and fell asleep after being relaxed." Yang Xiu said with a smile.
"Since Xiaozhi is fine, let's go back as soon as possible! Wen Yuan's injury is quite serious and he urgently needs Mr. Zhong Jing's diagnosis and treatment, so there can be no delay." Gao Shun said anxiously.
"Okay, then let's retreat. The land in Jiangbei will be temporarily handed over to Liu Xuande, and we will take it back after we stabilize Yizhou."
...
Jinling.
"Lord, Wenyuan and the others have escaped from the predicament. However, the damage was quite heavy, and only about 10,000 of the 60,000-strong army remained." Xun You quickly got the news and reported to Yuan Shu.
"How are Wenyuan and Xiaozhi doing?" Yuan Shu asked directly without caring about the loss of soldiers.
"Wen Yuan is seriously injured, but his life is not in danger. With Zhong Jing's medical skills, he should be able to return to the battlefield after two months of rest. Xiaozhi's injury is only minor, and he will be fine after two days of rest."
Yuan Shu breathed a long sigh of relief: "That's good. This battle is really difficult and dangerous. I didn't expect Wenyuan to be injured so seriously!"
Jia Xu sighed and said: "It is true that Cao Mengde and Liu Xuande acted too decisively this time. If Cao Cao had had a slightly different intention, I am afraid that Yuzhou would have been overturned by now. Liu Xuande is really big-hearted."
Xun You said: "It's just that he was forced by the situation. Liu Xuande must have been confident enough that Cao Mengde didn't dare to take action. But Wenhe, how did they find out about you and Li Ru? With your wisdom, you shouldn't be able to do such a thing.
Show the beginning and the end."
Hearing this, Jia Xu said calmly: "It is true that we didn't reveal anything at first. But my existence is not a secret to those wealthy families. As long as they investigate carefully, they should know that I was there when Li Ru died.
Chang'an has just come out, and if you think about it a little bit, you might be able to guess some of its secrets."
Xun You said: "I know this too, but I don't understand. You haven't shown much intelligence since you came here, and your sense of presence is as low as mine. How did they keep an eye on you?"
Jia Xu looked at Xun You with a slightly strange expression: "I think I should ask you about this."
Yuan Shu and Xun You looked strange, and Monk Zhang Er couldn't figure it out: "What do you mean?"
Jia Xu sighed: "I have carefully investigated and found that Liu Bei's subordinates have contact with Cao Cao. There is only one counselor who has ever left Yuzhou, Xun Yue. And Xun Yu is Cao Cao's most trusted counselor."
Xun You is a person who knows everything, and his face instantly darkened: "Wen He, I'm afraid what you said is right. This matter really has something to do with Xun Yue."
Yuan Shu also understood and looked at Xun You helplessly: "Speaking of Gongda, I haven't provoked your clan uncle very much, right? What's the matter? He stared at me so closely that even Wen He, a personal secretary, investigated it.
It’s clear.”
Xun You explained: "My Lord, I don't know. My uncle's thoughts are similar to yours, which is to suppress the family and the annexation of land. I'm afraid he pays so much attention to you because he admires you very much, Lord."
"Oh?" Yuan Shu said in surprise: "There is such a great talent? Gongda, since your uncle's idea coincides with mine, but I don't know if it can be used by me?"
Yuan Shu never had too many talents. After unifying the south, his territory was so large that even a few more counselors could not fill it.
Xun You's face showed a slight embarrassment: "I have disappointed my lord. I am afraid that this matter cannot be done. This uncle of mine has great integrity. As long as Liu Bei does not die and does not do anything that is outrageous and resentful, I am afraid that this uncle of mine will not choose another one."
His Lord.”
When Yuan Shu heard this, he was slightly disappointed. He looked at Xun You and said, "Why are you, the Xun family, so stubborn? Can't you see who is the wise master? If you don't hold on to a thigh as thick as mine,
