The first thousand three hundred and eighty chapters lost, won
Chapter 1,380 Defeated, Won
When Yi Xiaotian saw Zhang Liao, Zhang Liao was kneeling on the ground with disheveled hair.
"Sir...I...I have betrayed your trust!"
Seeing Yi Xiaotian arriving, Zhang Liao slowly raised his neck, raised his head, looked at Yi Xiaotian with tears streaming down his face, and said this.
As for Yi Xiaotian...
When he got the news that Zhao Yun led his army to retreat immediately after arriving in Dongcheng... he roughly guessed what happened.
But there is one thing that Yi Xiaotian doesn’t quite understand…
"I heard that sound. You should have used all the grenades...how could you still be defeated?"
Hearing what Yi Xiaotian said, Zhang Liao was stunned for a moment...and finally explained in an extremely depressed tone what happened after they breached the outer city gate.
After hearing this, Yi Xiaotian was helpless.
"So that's it..."
Yi Xiaotian really didn't calculate this.
Who would have thought that Zhang Fei, a guy like Zhang Fei, could gain experience from being blown up and catch a grenade from mid-air without fear of death?
And this scene also made Yi Xiaotian realize one thing, that is... the grenade is indeed still in an incomplete state.
If it can be countered so easily by the opponent, and its power is uncertain, if it is used on the battlefield in the future, there is no guarantee that the same scenario as this time will not occur.
all in all…
"So what are the casualties this time? Is there any chance to organize another attack?"
Yi Xiaotian asked.
As a result, Zhao Yun on the side shook his head and said:
"Zhuge Liang's reinforcements have arrived at the east city gate. It won't take long for them to fill the vacancy at the upper city gate, and more than half of our casualties... Not to mention morale, in terms of military strength alone, we can no longer organize as decently as before.
attack."
Zhao Yun's outspoken words made Zhang Liao bow his head even further.
Yi Xiaotian did not blame Zhang Liao for his time and mood. He was now considering something that may sound unimaginable, but Yi Xiaotian has never been a person who dared not speak because of face.
"Zilong went to Shang Xiang and the others and asked them to pack their bags - and...General Sun, you can inform the soldiers to prepare to break camp and retreat."
Sun Quan had been waiting for the results of the battle from the side, but at this moment, Zhang Liao's army went from being reported to be defeated to being defeated in less than half an hour... The changes in the situation on the battlefield made Sun Quan temporarily confused.
The key...the news of the retreat came from Yi Xiaotian. What does this mean?
"Yi Xiaotian...you...you didn't lie to me again, did you?
We...if we still have so many soldiers and horses, we can continue..."
"General Sun, the blame lies with me. As the organizer of the plan, it is my fault that I failed to take into account all unexpected situations. But the current situation is... I have no backup plan. If the stalemate continues,
There won’t be much progress, and if nothing unexpected happens, soon... the enemy’s reinforcements will arrive.”
Yi Xiaotian pointed in the direction of Jiangxia in the distance.
Sun Quan looked there blankly.
I don't know if it was an illusion of time or something...another half hour passed in the blink of an eye.
Sun Quan didn't know what he had done in this half hour... The soldiers around him never stopped, and even Sun Shangxiang came behind Sun Quan out of worry.
However, none of this could bring Sun Quan back to his senses.
until…
Until on the distant horizon, a group of dark figures gradually appeared.
Immediately afterwards, armies all over the mountains and plains appeared on the land to the west of Wancheng.
They were moving extremely fast, and judging from their uniform formation and extremely suppressed momentum, at least for the moment... Sun Quan no longer had any troops under his command that could compete with such a large army.
"My lord...sir told us to evacuate to the fortress at Wankou and send a team of soldiers to keep an eye on their movements..."
Gan Ning's voice finally brought Sun Quan back to reality.
Sun Quan was in a daze...Gan Ning has returned, which means...
He turned around and twisted his neck stiffly, only to see that the vast camp behind him was already empty.
The vast formation that had been there before was gone, and all that was left was a group of silent soldiers. They stood in the distance with great dejection, staring at the black city that they had paid a heavy price for, but still could not conquer.
At some point, the attackers had disappeared. When he turned around, Sun Quan vaguely saw the Liu character flag fluttering in the wind on the wall of Wancheng.
Liu Bei was currently having a carnival with his soldiers on the city wall.
He, who is very old, seems to have awakened some extraordinary will in the past two days, advancing and retreating with the soldiers, and he alone led the defenders to block the opponent's attacks again and again.
Covered in blood, he has swept away the cowardice and sluggishness he once had, and now he is truly no different from a lord who loves his soldiers as much as his sons.
Zhuge Liang was also on the city wall. He stared blankly at the Sun and Cao coalition troops who had broken camp and were preparing to leave in the distance. He still couldn't imagine that he had actually defeated Yi Xiaotian.
certainly…
If you don't count the things that happened when I was beaten up in Piling.
The impact of this hard-won victory suddenly flooded Zhuge Liang's heart.
Suddenly, his eyes were foggy, and he saw many soldiers around him. Zhuge Liang quietly turned away and wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes with his sleeves.
It's just that this scene was completely seen by Pang Tong, but Pang Tong didn't even notice it.
"Strategic advisor! Military advisor! It's reinforcements! It's reinforcements that are coming!!"
"What did you say?"
Suddenly, someone's surprise call made Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong wake up.
The two people rushed to the person who reported the news, held the person's head in disbelief and confirmed:
"What reinforcements! Where did the reinforcements come from? Are they the second general's team?"
The little pawn was also very ambitious. Surrounded by Crouching Dragon and Phoenix, he could still speak clearly. He said excitedly:
"Look at the big military flag, it seems to have the characters Mi and Shi written on it..."
"Mi Fang! Shiren!"
As a result, before the pawn finished speaking, Pang Tong and Zhuge Liang looked at each other and said the answer in unison.
Yes, Mi Fang and Shi Ren's reinforcements finally arrived.
Nearly 30,000 reinforcements have now arrived to the west of Qianqian, and the vanguard cavalry they sent has already arrived at the city.
"It's reinforcements! Reinforcements are coming! Brothers! We are saved!"
When the guard on the city saw the cavalry rushing towards the city, he announced the news to everyone in a hoarse voice.
Wancheng suddenly turned into a sea of joy.
——
"General Sun... retreat first and take a look at Liu Bei's movements for the time being. In addition... I still have some things to confirm."
Yi Xiaotian came to Sun Quan and patted him on the shoulder.
After seeing Yi Xiaotian's calm eyes, Sun Quan finally returned to reality.
"Why is it still so cold..."
Sun Quan didn't know what he thought of, so he muttered something, pulled his collar, and followed Yi Xiaotian towards the army.
