Just when Zhang Fei's troops were entangled with the Jingzhou Navy, Xu Huang and Zang Ba also led the Hengye Army and Xuzhou Army to kill them.
"Third General, the enemies behind are coming."
Soon the soldiers behind informed Zhang Fei that Xu Huang and Zang Ba's troops were coming to kill him.
"So fast?"
Hearing the news, Zhang Fei couldn't help but frown. Although he had expected that the enemy would come and kill him, he didn't expect it to come so quickly.
"The three generals should break up into parts now, take advantage of the situation at night, break out separately, and then go to Yanting for the round."
The guard commander next to Zhang Fei glanced at Zhang Fei, his eyes full of anxiety.
"If we break it down into parts, I'm afraid we won't be able to get it together."
Zhang Fei also knows that the best way now is to break them up into parts, but to be honest, these soldiers and horses under his command are not elite. They can fight with the wind, but it will be too difficult for them to disperse directly and then reunite.
"But the enemy in front of us is very tough, we can't rush through."
The captain of the bodyguard has no choice. He can't charge or disperse now. He has no idea how to beat him.
"It is necessary to break them into parts. In this way, you will disperse all the personal guards into various troops, and you must do your best to bring the troops back to Yanting."
Now Zhang Fei has no choice but to break them into pieces. If the soldiers and horses from behind come to kill them, none of them will be able to escape, so he can only disperse his personal guards among the troops.
It is hoped that under their leadership, the troops can be brought back to Yanting.
"Take orders."
After hearing Zhang Fei's words, the head of the bodyguard had nothing to say, so he directly accepted the order and then arranged for the bodyguard to be decentralized to various ministries.
"Disperse."
The personal guards disbanded the troops, and then upon Zhang Fei's order, the remaining 40,000 troops and horses, led by the school captain and supplemented by the garrison captain, dispersed in all directions.
"General, the enemy has dispersed."
Zhang Fei's troops dispersed and immediately reported to Cheng Yu.
"No, they are broken into pieces and want to run away. Instruct the soldiers in units of ten thousand to seize two soldiers and horses and kill them for me."
After hearing the situation reported below, Cheng Yu immediately decided to split up his forces to pursue him. It was not easy for him to chase someone blindly, but he had to do it no matter what.
"promise."
The 40,000 Jingzhou navy was directly divided into two, and they grabbed two of the enemies and began to pursue them.
"General, General Cheng Yu wants to see you."
After the troops separated, Cheng Yu did not hesitate and rode directly in front of Zang Ba and Xu Huang.
"Let him in."
Hearing that Cheng Yu was coming, Xu Huang and Zang Ba looked at each other and asked Cheng Yu to come over and reply.
"Cheng Yu pays homage to the two generals."
Cheng Yu came over and saluted the two of them directly.
"Okay, let's quickly talk about the current situation."
Seeing Cheng Yu salute, Xu Huang spoke directly to him.
"Two generals, we followed the orders of the military advisor to besiege Zhang Fei's army again. It was going well just now, but the generals arrived with their troops, and Zhang Fei immediately adopted a strategy of breaking up into parts. Now his troops are divided into four groups.
Break through from four directions, and I have ordered my troops to divide into two groups and pursue the troops to the east and northeast first."
Cheng Yu also knew that now was not the time to talk nonsense, so he directly told Zhang Fei's actions and his arrangements.
"Okay, since your soldiers and horses are chasing the soldiers and horses in the east and northeast, Xuan Gao and we will divide our troops into two groups, each chasing down the enemy. We must keep them all."
After hearing Cheng Yu's introduction, Xu Huang didn't talk nonsense and directly chose to split up with Zang Babing and pursue them separately.
"Okay, then I will chase the enemies to the west and leave the enemies to the northwest to you."
Zang Ba had nothing to say, so he directly chose the enemy in the west and handed the northwest to Xu Huang.
"Okay, Yokoye Army will follow me."
Xu Huang nodded, roared loudly, and led the Hengye army towards the northwest.
"Xuzhou Army, follow me to the west."
Zang Ba did the same and led the Xuzhou army directly to the west.
Forty thousand Zhang Fei's troops fled, followed by nearly one hundred thousand Jizhou troops in hot pursuit. The pursuit lasted from dusk to dawn, and Zhang Fei took the lead in fighting back to Yanting City with nearly ten thousand people.
"Open the door, your third grandfather is back."
Looking at the closed city gate, Zhang Fei couldn't help but frowned. Why did the attack start in the middle of the night? It's been a whole night of fighting. People and horses are exhausted, and you haven't opened the door yet?
Doesn’t this make Third Grandpa angry?
"Third Grandpa, I am your uncle. This Yanting City has been captured by me, Xu Chen."
Upon hearing Zhang Fei's shouting, countless soldiers and horses instantly appeared on the city wall, and the flags of Jingzhou Navy and Yuan Shu also flew on the Yanting city wall.
"grass."
Seeing the people and flags on the city wall, Zhang Fei swore directly, I risked my life this night, and there was no result at all. Now you can just steal your hometown.
"Fire the arrow."
Zhang Fei was furious, but Xu Chen smiled slightly and directly ordered the soldiers to fire arrows.
For a moment, arrows rained down directly towards Zhang Fei's troops.
"Walk."
Seeing this posture, Zhang Fei knew that he had been completely defeated and there was no point in spending any more time here. He directly left Yanting with his troops and retreated towards Wucheng.
Zhang Fei left with his soldiers and horses, and the soldiers under his command withdrew to the direction of Yanting. Seeing that Yanting, which had transformed into a royal flag, also collapsed instantly, then broke into pieces again and fled in all directions.
Not only did Zhang Fei not get any benefits from this battle, but he also lost his troops and generals. Not only did he lose the fortress city of Yanting, he also lost all his 80,000-strong army.
With these troops and horses combined with Yanting's defense, he could hold out for a while even if Chen Gong and Xun You encircled him. But now it's better. Everything that should have been lost was lost in one night, and there was nothing left.
Xu Huang and Zang Ba led the army directly to the outside of Yanting City. Xu Chen on the top of the city saw them coming and opened the city gate directly. At the same time, the scouts ran directly towards the water village.
"Military advisor, Yanting City has been captured by us."
The scouts came to the water village and reported directly to Chen Gong.
"Taken it down?
Where is Zhang Fei?
Got it?"
Hearing that Yanting had been taken down, Chen Gong stood up directly.
"Zhang Fei left Yanting with more than 10,000 remaining troops and retreated towards the five cities. The other soldiers and horses were scattered and dead, and they no longer posed a threat."
The scout immediately told Zhang Fei's latest news and the situation of his troops.
"Haha, Zhang Fei, Zhang Fei, now you really stole the chicken but lost the rice. You lost your wife and lost your army."
Although Zhang Fei was not captured this time, it was an unexpected surprise to be able to hold Yanting in his hands this time.
"So what do we do now?"
When Cai Mao heard that Yanting was captured, he was relieved. Finally, the Jingzhou Navy had not embarrassed himself.
"what to do?
Immediately ordered Xu Huang and Zang Ba to lead the Hengye Army and Xuzhou Army to attack the five cities by land. The Jingzhou Navy returned to the warships, and the navy went to the five cities by water. After taking this place, all Dongguanghan County will be in our hands.
Then the whole army marched westward, attacked Guanghan County, and surrounded Liu Bei's army in Mianzhu with the lord."
Now that Yanting has been captured, there is nothing to hesitate about, just kill all the way and push sideways.
"promise."
Cai Mao immediately clasped his fists at Chen Gong and went to convey his military order.
"Immediately send a message to Xun You via telegraph, asking him to speed up his march to meet Xu Huang in Yanting and attack the five cities by land."
After Cai Mao left, Xun You directly issued orders to the guards around him.
"promise."
Soon Xun You also received a telegram from Chen Gong.
"Military advisor, a telegram from Lord Chen Gong."
"oh?"
Chen Gong received the telegram and opened it directly.
"Military advisor, what's going on?"
Taishi Ci came to Xun You with doubts in his eyes. They were rushing to Yanting. What was the status of the telegram now?
"Zhang Fei led his army to sneak attack Chen Gong's water stronghold last night, but was severely defeated. Not only was the salt pavilion stolen, but the 80,000-strong army was also lost. Chen Gong is sending a telegram now to ask us to hurry up and go there.
Yanting, follow Xu Huang and Zang Ba there, and then join forces to attack the five cities."
Xun You directly conveyed Chen Gong's telegram to Tai Shi Ci.
"Commander, this is a good thing. Zhang Fei has always been a scourge here in Yanting. Now that we can capture him, there is basically no hope for Dongguanghan County. After capturing the five cities, we can join our troops and go north to surround Mianzhu with our lord's troops."
It’s Liu Bei.”
Hearing Xun You's words, Taishi Ci was also excited. Originally, he was thinking about how many soldiers and horses he would lose in taking Yanting. Now it's better. They have self-destructed and there is no need to fight.
"Well, order the soldiers and horses to speed up and march into Yanting."
