"Demo, don't be sad. Some losses are inevitable. These brothers died fighting for Yanzhou. We cannot treat their families badly. Do you understand?"
There was no expression on Sun Jian's face, but Cheng Pu knew that the general couldn't help but feel heartbroken. This would basically destroy all their eyes, and they would need to be more cautious in the next battle.
"Cheng Pu understands."
"Where is Chen Gong?"
After finishing talking about the scouts, Sun Jian asked Chen Gong.
"I have already sent someone to pick her up. I will definitely arrive before noon."
As Sun Jian's most beloved general, Cheng Pu had reasons for doing things and knew the priorities. After receiving the news from Bai Hu, he immediately sent two thousand cavalry to greet him.
"Well, then I will take a rest first and meet with Chen Gong tomorrow."
"promise."
Sun Jian's entire coalition of more than 100,000 people waited for more than a long time, and finally saw the cavalry in the distance, and here Chen Gong and Bai Hu were in the middle of the cavalry.
"General, Chen Gong was brought back safe and sound."
Bai Hu jumped off his horse, covered in blood, and came to Sun Jian.
"Well, Bai Hu, you have made great achievements in this matter, so you can wait for the reward."
Sun Jian said nothing, and Cheng Pu, who was in charge of the scouts, directly assured him.
"Haha, the blood on my clothes comes from both my comrades and my enemies. I can't hold this position anymore. I'm going to help collect the bones of my brothers and send them home."
Hearing Cheng Pu's words, there was no sparkle in Bai Hu's eyes, because he could not forget the figures who shielded him from the knife, nor could he forget the comrades who dragged the enemy off their horses even after they died, let alone those who were dying.
A voice calling to hurry up.
"Bai Hu, you dare."
Hearing Bai Hu's words, Cheng Pu couldn't help but glared and was about to curse.
"De Mou, stop talking. Go down and prepare a carriage with baggage for Bai Hu and let him go."
Sun Jian understood from Bai Hu's eyes that Bai Hu was heartbroken. Since he was heartbroken, let him go.
"As commanded."
Cheng Pu also had tears in his eyes. He had proposed and trained these scouts one by one, but this time they were all buried under the walls of Lu County. He was sadder than anyone else.
"Thank you, General."
After Bai Hu finished speaking, he left the gate like a zombie and entered the camp through the side passage. After a while, a man left with a heavy flatbed carriage and ran towards Lu County.
Since then, Sun Jian's army has lost a scout team led by Bai Hu, and there is an unknown corpse collector wandering around Lu County.
"Mr. Gongtai laughed."
Sun Jian smiled and came to Chen Gong, who was also covered in blood.
"General Wentai, there is no need to do this. We will enter the camp immediately. Lu County is in danger."
Chen Gong didn't exchange too many greetings with Sun Jian. In fact, he was a little scared when he thought about it now.
Who knows how it turned into a decisive battle between the scouts. Fortunately, Dian Wei knew his situation and deliberately opened a small opening, otherwise it would have been really difficult to get here.
"Okay, beat the drums and gather the generals to discuss the battle of Lu County immediately."
Sun Jian was not a wordy person, so he directly faced Chen Gong and entered the Chinese army's tent.
After a while, the big tent was filled with the generals from all sides.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Mr. Chen Gongtai, Liu Yanzhou's military advisor and the current chief secretary of Yanzhou."
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Sun Jian directly took Chen Gong and introduced him to Zhu Jun, Huang Zu and Zhang Xun.
"It turns out to be Chen Gong and Chen Gongtai. I have admired him for a long time."
"Mr. Gongtai's name is resounding throughout Kyushu. It's better to meet him than to be famous."
"I also ask Mr. Gongtai to take care of me in the future."
Zhu Jun and others also praised Chen Gong without hesitation. After all, this was a big fish, and his arrival probably represented Liu Bei.
"Generals, the military situation is urgent now, so Chen Gong will not be too verbose. The situation in Lu County is very bad now.
Yuan Shu had a fierce battle with us some time ago. We originally set up a Tushan military stronghold outside Lu County to compete with Lu County.
However, Yuan Shu relied on his superior troops to launch a fierce attack on Tushan. Although Luxian City also sent troops to attack, he was helplessly outnumbered.
We fought so badly in this battle. General Zhang Fei was seriously injured and fell into coma. General Guan Yu was also seriously injured. He returned to Lu County with Tushan troops and horses. The available troops in Lu County now only have 30,000 main troops and more than 10,000 Taishan troops.
If you hadn't led your troops here, maybe Lu County would have changed its banner by now."
Chen Gong's words silenced the people in the tent for a while. They had thought about the situation in Lu County, but they did not expect it to be so miserable. Liu Bei had two generals with ten thousand enemies, one was unconscious and the other was seriously injured, but they could fight with soldiers and horses.
There are only 30,000 to 40,000 people.
"Mr. Gongtai, Liu Yanzhou suffered such heavy casualties, how about Yuan Shu's casualties?"
Yan Xiang looked at Chen Gong, frowned and asked him.
Chen Gong glanced at Yan Xiang, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Who is this?"
Upon hearing Chen Gong's inquiry, Yan Xiang directly clasped his fists.
"I'm under Yan Xiang, and Tian will be the Commander-in-Chief of the Allied Army."
"It turned out to be a grand scheme under Yuan Benchu's command. Chen Gong was rude. We lost nearly 50,000 people in this battle. Although Yuan Shu had more troops, the damage was not small. There were at least 20,000 to 30,000 people."
Chen Gong stared at Yan Xiang. He knew that the key to whether he could succeed this time was whether he could deceive Yan Xiang.
"Two to thirty thousand people, I wonder how many troops Yuan Shu has for this attack?
Mr. Gongtai must have been at odds with them for so long, so he must understand it. There are rumors that he has 200,000 troops, but I don't believe it."
Yan Xiang nodded. In such a battle, with powerful generals like Zhang Fei and Guan Yu, he himself would lose more than 50,000 people, and Yuan Shu's loss of 20,000 to 30,000 horses would definitely be justified.
"Yuan Shu came to Yanzhou with several main troops: Ji Ling's Huwei Army, Dian Wei's Guards, Gao Shun's Entrapment Army, Zhao Yun's Yingyang Army, Xu Huang's Hengye Army,
In addition to the 10,000 Xiongnu cavalry and 30,000 militiamen, the total number of troops is about 130,000 and close to 140,000.
Among them, the Yingyang Army has been transferred back to Jizhou by Lu Bu, so there is no need to consider it for the time being.
The first battle in Lu County was fought by Xu Huang of the Hengye Army. The battle was fierce and the losses were huge. Probably close to 10,000 people died under the city of Lu County.
Coupled with the damage he suffered in the Tushan Battle, Yuan Shu now has at most 80,000 to 90,000 troops at his disposal.
Of course, this is only on the surface. As for whether he has transferred troops from Jizhou, I have no way of knowing."
Chen Gong wanted to make Yan Xiang believe, so he naturally had to reveal some real situations to them. Of course, these were all on the surface. As long as Sun Jian wanted to find out, he could probably find out the facts. It didn't matter.
"Well, I'm fine."
Chen Gong's words were easy to verify, so there were no flaws. Yan Xiang closed his eyes and began to think.
Seeing the look on Yan Xiang's face, Chen Gong knew that he was digesting the news he had given him. He did not say anything and just stared at Sun Jian, who was sitting at the head of the table.
"Gongtai, do you have any strategies to defeat the enemy?"
