On that day, Yi Xiaotian and others evacuated to the vicinity of the fortress in Wankou.
They took advantage of the fortress to set up camp again. However, although the army had not completely withdrawn, Yi Xiaotian had already asked Sun Quan to take the grain, grass and baggage troops away from the battlefield first. This battle lasted for several months, and both sides started with firewood.
In the Sangxindu area, the stalemate continued until near Piling before the first phase of the decisive battle began.
The final result was naturally that Zhang Fei of Liu Bei's army was seriously injured, while Zhuge Liang chose to exchange Zhao Yun for Pang Tong, and the two hostages Wei Yan ended the stalemate.
What happened next was very complicated. Under the pressure of Yi Xiaotian, Liu Beijun had to give up the safe retreat route by returning to Chaisang by water. Instead, he walked farther and farther north, and finally had to come to the Lujiang River.
Immediately afterwards, Yi Xiaotian prepared several killing moves, quickly forcing Liu Beijun to a dead end.
However, the sky is the limit, and in that desperate situation, Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong chose to take the risk and directly attack Wancheng, an important town in the Lujiang River.
This gave them a chance to breathe for half a month.
Although they were hit hard by Yi Xiaotian's new bombs many times after that, God seemed to be helping Liu Bei's army out of trouble - the sudden heavy rain caused the Sun-Cao coalition forces originally led by Yi Xiaotian to lose all their advantages and had to
Falling into an offensive and defensive battle with Liu Bei's army.
It also forced Yi Xiaotian to improve his not-so-mature bomb technology in just a few days——
As a result, even if the grenade was developed, the final result could not be reversed.
Under the influence of various factors, Yi Xiaotian's original plan to encircle and suppress Liu Bei completely failed.
But the more critical issue now is not just the failure of Wancheng.
——
At night, the camp was brightly lit, and the soldiers seemed less sad after everything they had experienced during the day.
After all... Looking back on everything that happened in the past two months, they were the ones who protected Jiangdong from being invaded by Liu Bei's army.
Today's retreat only declares that they cannot defeat all the enemies in one fell swoop, but for most people...what does it matter?
Yi Xiaotian saw this and knew that it would be unreasonable to urge the soldiers to fight the enemy, so he issued the order to retreat.
After arriving near Wankou, the first thing he did was to send Zhao Yun to Wancheng to continue tracking the movements of Liu Bei's army.
He wanted to ensure that Liu Bei's army would not have other ideas during this trip, and if the other party chose to retreat, he would immediately inform Sun Quan and let them take over Wancheng again - in any case, Wancheng is quite a big deal to Lujiang.
Important military town.
In addition, Yi Xiaotian also asked Zhao Yun to do other things, or in other words... this matter is what Yi Xiaotian is most concerned about at the moment.
...While the soldiers were sitting around the campfire, rejoicing that the war was over, Zhao Yun returned to the camp with his troops and horses.
Yi Xiaotian came to inquire, but when he saw the familiar figure on Zhao Yun's horse, there was a sudden roar in his brain, and he couldn't react for a moment. What happened - that person was Guo Jia
, but it was Guo Jia who was covered in bruises.
"This is how the same thing?"
"Zilong! Where did you find out... Hurry... first... find the doctor first. His injuries are too serious!"
Yi Xiaotian was really panicked now, and even forgot that he was the person with the most superb medical skills present.
After nearly two hours of tossing...the night was already deep.
Many officers in the army heard that Yi Xiaotian and others seemed to be rescuing people, but they did not know the specific details.
Some people wanted to come forward and ask what happened, but the soldiers surrounding the tent were all clueless.
——
Inside the tent, Guo Jia, who was wrapped in bandages, was lying quietly on the bed.
Yi Xiaotian was lying in front of the bed. There was some freshly ground medicinal mud in the medicine mortar in his hand. He carefully applied the medicinal mud to Guo Jia, who was still in a coma. The expression on his face was indescribable.
dignified…
Huang Yueying, Lu Lingqi, Ma Yunlu and Sun Shangxiang, who also came from Youjian Villa like Yi Xiaotian, were standing nervously aside, always ready to attack Yi Xiaotian.
But it seems that they are no longer needed.
Sun Shangxiang was very surprised...
She followed Yi Xiaotian to Youjian Villa not long ago, but she was quite impressed by Guo Jia lying on the bed.
This person is weak in humanities and looks similar to Yi Xiaotian in stature, but he looks more bookish than Yi Xiaotian.
But she knew very well that Yi Xiaotian was not in control of Youjian Villa in Yecheng. In fact, whether it was daily affairs or various business activities, all decisions had to be made by this person.
And judging from Yi Xiaotian's easy-going approach when communicating with him, Yi Xiaotian definitely did not treat him as an ordinary subordinate, but a true friend, treating him as an equal...
It is such a man who plays an important role in Youjian Villa, but now he appears in the army with bruises all over his body...
"Brother Guo...is he okay?"
"Sir, I haven't said anything yet...but judging from the situation, it shouldn't be a serious problem."
Lu Lingqi frowned and answered Sun Shangxiang's question.
Sun Shangxiang just breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Lu Lingqi continue:
"What you are worried about now is not Fengxiao's injuries, but what Fengxiao has experienced before..."
"That's true... Mr. told us earlier when he first pulled me into the tent. Although the injuries on his body looked scary, they were just flesh wounds. With Mr.'s medical skills, such minor injuries would be very painful.
It will be taken care of quickly - but the sir's expression became solemn only after General Zilong handed a letter to the sir."
Ma Yunlu told what he saw.
These words attracted everyone's attention.
"letter?"
Huang Yueying tilted her head and asked doubtfully.
"General Zilong...what letter did you give to sir?"
Zhao Yun was silent on the side holding the spear. Huang Yueying trotted to Zhao Yun and asked quietly.
Seeing that it was Huang Yueying asking about his letter, Zhao Yun's expression relaxed slightly, but he shook his head:
"Actually, I don't know. Brother Guo just handed this letter to me before he fell into coma and asked me to deliver it to the husband on his behalf. Other than that, I don't know what the letter said."
Zhao Yun said so, so everyone had no choice but to give up. I guess Yi Xiaotian will tell them after Guo Jia's injury is treated, right?
Just as everyone was thinking this, there was a sound of footsteps outside the tent.
"Ahem...Yi Xiaotian, can we come in?"
Sun Quan asked cautiously outside the tent.
Zhao Yun walked up to Yi Xiaotian and sought Yi Xiaotian's answer.
After receiving the affirmation, Zhao Yun said outside the room:
