The sound of ringing gold sounded under Wuyin City.
Even if Zhang Fei was dissatisfied, he did not dare to disobey the military order and had to order the withdrawal of troops.
It's getting late.
Wuyin County is as hard as a rock, with no flaws at all. There are traces of stone smashing on the city wall, and thick smoke rises from the top of the city. The moment Liu Bei's army receded like a tide, there was a wave of fire coming from the direction of Wuyin County.
There were thunderous cheers, and there was the excitement of surviving a disaster, but in Zhang Fei's ears, it seemed like they were mocking...laughing at Zhang Fei's overestimating behavior.
Huan's eyes widened, and Zhang Fei shattered his steel teeth.
He returned to the military camp angrily, and when he saw Zhao Yun face to face, he asked: "Zilong, I am about to break Wuyin right before my eyes, why do I have to withdraw my troops at this time?"
Break through Wuyin?
Zhao Yun smiled bitterly in his heart!
I only saw that you lost troops and generals, but you couldn't help but not Wuyin County.
The eight-oxen crossbows on the county town were like a nightmare, making the soldiers tremble with fear.
Seven of the twenty Jinglan vehicles were lost in a short period of time. Not to mention, they were completely unable to suppress Wuyin County with bows and arrows. The unprotected soldiers were like moths to a flame, causing countless casualties.
In a short period of time, Liu Bei's army lost nearly a thousand men.
Although it is impossible to fight without casualties, the problem is that there is nothing you can do about Wuyin City...
But it was impossible for Zhao Yun to say these words.
He is a good soldier, but not a good counselor.
Zhao Yun doesn't know how to argue, and he doesn't know how to speak. More often than not, Changshan Zhao Zilong is a hard worker, but he doesn't know how to communicate with others, let alone how to convey his wishes to others. This is what Liu Bei has always said
One of the reasons why he was not allowed to lead the army alone was Zhang Fei. Look at him, he looks like a reckless man, but he will fight and rob.
It could be said that he was proud of himself, or he could be said to be arrogant because of his favor.
In short, Zhang Fei was able to shout loudly and make mistakes many times, but he was able to be entrusted with important tasks and lead an army alone.
Because Zhang Fei knows how to express his inner thoughts, at this point, Zhao Yun's character determines that he is not as good as Mr. Zhang.
"The military advisor is awake!"
"ah?"
Zhao Yun said softly: "The situation of the military advisor is very bad. The three generals should go and take a look."
Zhang Fei didn't bother to argue with Zhao Yun anymore, and hurriedly ran all the way into the Chinese army's tent. The tent was filled with the smell of blood, and the generals were already waiting inside. When Zhang Fei rushed in, it happened to be
The military doctor walked out, Zhang Fei stepped forward and grabbed the military doctor's arm.
"How is the situation with the military advisor?"
"Military advisor..."
The military doctor looked worried, obviously the situation was not optimistic.
Zhang Fei was furious and pushed the military doctor to the ground, "You little guy, if I can't save the military advisor, what's the point of keeping you?"
As he spoke, he pulled out his sword and stepped forward in three steps to take the life of the military doctor. All the generals were silent, but no one dared to stand up and speak for the military doctor. Zhang Fei raised his sword and dropped it, but
Seeing a flash of cold light and a clang, a sword held Zhang Fei's sword. Zhang Fei shouted angrily, took two steps back and turned to look. It was indeed Zhao Yun who arrived in time and stopped Zhang Fei.
"Zilong, do you want to stop me?"
"Third General, why bother trying to anger others?
I think you must have done your best, but killing people at this time is a bad omen for the war."
Zhang Fei's eyes widened, and he was about to curse, when he heard a weak voice coming from the bed, "Yide, please don't be rude."
"military adviser."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Fei immediately left Zhao Yun and the military doctor behind and ran to the bed.
Historical records have recorded that Zhang Fei valued scholar-bureaucrats over soldiers. His respect for Xun Chen came from the bottom of his heart, second only to Liu Bei.
As for Zhuge Liang, Zhang Fei has always looked down upon him.
On the one hand, it is certainly because Zhuge Liang is too young, and on the other hand, it is because of the great reputation Xun Chen enjoys among scholars. The Xun family of Yingchuan is not comparable to the Zhuge family of Langya. The reputation accumulated over many generations
Due to his popularity and prestige, even Liu Bei never dared to be rude in front of Xun Chen. If Xun Chen hadn't opened his mouth, Zhang Fei might even have drawn his sword against Zhao Yun.
Zhao Yun sighed softly in his heart and stepped forward to help the military doctor up.
"Sir, don't blame me."
He sent the military doctor out of the Chinese army tent and suddenly lowered his voice and said: "Sir, take this opportunity and leave the military camp as soon as possible.
If the military advisor is fine, everything is easy to say. But if... I'm afraid that by then, no one will be able to stop the three generals, so you'd better leave quickly."
The military doctor's face turned pale. After hearing what Zhao Yun said, he bowed his hands to the ground without saying anything more, turned around and left in a hurry.
Watching the military doctor go away, Zhao Yun took a deep breath and turned around to return to the Chinese army's tent. At this time, Xun Chen's complexion was ruined. His clear face was devoid of any blood, and he was as pale as a dead man's face. He held Zhang Fei's hand in his hand.
He has big hands and speaks with a trace of difficulty.
"I originally wanted to take this opportunity to build a foundation for the Lord, but I didn't expect that this small town of Wuyin County would be so difficult to deal with.
Yide, if I am not here, you must not act rashly. You must withdraw your troops immediately and return to Wancheng. My lord is now hiding on the beach of Bishui, preparing to ambush Cao Youxue... You inform my lord that you must defend Wancheng securely and make friends with Nanyang powerful people. Try your best.
Persuading Li Gui and Liu Hu to send troops to join the war can also avoid Liu Jingzhou's censure. Although Jingxiang is not the center of the Yangtze River, it is the place where the four wars were fought and cannot be the foundation. If the lord wants to revive the Han Dynasty, he must
Try to capture Xichuan. However, we need to pay attention to the conflict between the powerful powers in Xichuan and Jingxiang. We cannot abandon the powerful Jingxiang and we cannot rely entirely on the scholars of Jingxiang. Otherwise, there will be disaster.
If the lord plans to seize Xichuan, he must not rush to send troops.
We should follow the actions of Sun and his son in Jiangdong and accept the barbarians of the Southern Wilderness...Cao Youxue's actions in Hexi can be used as a reference.
And don't resort to violence, for fear that it won't last long. Yide, you have a strong temperament and are motivated by good intentions. Now is the life and death of the lord, so you should restrain your temper and don't let it go as you please. Zilong has a great talent, but it's a pity that he is not good at words.
, you should help him more."
Xun Chen's words are almost like explaining the future affairs.
Zhang Fei had tears in his eyes and nodded repeatedly.
The damage caused by that spear to Xun Chen was really huge.
The ribs were torn apart by spears, and the internal organs could even be seen squirming.
With such an injury, even if Hua Tuo came, he could not save Xun Chen's life. Xun Chen knew it well. After explaining Zhang Fei, he could no longer speak. He lay on the couch, his breath gradually weakening. Thinking back to that time
, Xun's Sanruo family was famous in Yingchuan, and the three brothers had a deep relationship. But later, conflicts arose due to political opinions. Xun Yu defected to Cao Cao, while Xun Chen defected to Yuan Shao.
This day is not given to me!
In Xun Chen's mind, the scene when the three brothers were studying in school emerged in Xun Chen's mind, and a touch of rosy color gradually appeared on his pale-as-paper face.
It's a pity that you and I, brothers, can't face each other again.
Now you have won. If there is an afterlife, we will see each other again...
The big hand holding Zhang Fei's arm suddenly let go.
Xun Chen tilted his head and lost any breath.
Zhang Fei sat on the edge of the bed, and his mind went blank. He couldn't believe the fact that Xun Chen was dead for a long time. After a long time, he suddenly roared, "Come here, order all the troops and horses for me... If you don't step out today,
Pingwuyin County, to avenge the military advisor, I swear not to be a human being."
All the generals in the tent looked at each other in astonishment upon hearing this.
Everyone can understand Zhang Fei's mood. But sending troops to attack Wuyin at this time is undoubtedly an extremely poor choice.
Xun Chen's death demoralized people.
If we launch an attack at this time, how can we win?
Although there is a saying that mourning soldiers will win, the problem is that in today's army, it can no longer be described as simply mourning soldiers.
Everyone, you look at me and I look at you, but you don’t know how to persuade Zhang Fei. It’s obvious that Zhang Fei has gone berserk... An angry Mr. Zhang is no different from a drunkard. At this time, go up and stop him.
Zhang Fei, if he doesn't do it well, he may lose his life.
"Third General, no!"
Zhao Yun stepped forward and caught Zhang Fei who was about to leave the tent.
"The military advisor ordered us to withdraw our troops immediately and return to Wancheng."
Zhang Fei's eyes were red and he said sternly: "Zilong, why don't you want to avenge the military advisor? The Lord ordered you to protect the military advisor. Where were you when the military advisor was injured?"
The implication is that Zhao Yun was accused of dereliction of duty, which led to Xun Chen's death.
If it were someone else, he would immediately say something back: If your three generals hadn't been injured and passed out, and the soldiers were leaderless, why would I have to comfort the soldiers and stabilize their morale?
But Zhao Yun is a person who is not good at words.
His face turned red, but he didn't know how to speak. However, he still held Zhang Fei's arm tightly in his hand, refusing to relax even an inch.
"Zhao Yun, let go of your hands."
"The military advisor ordered us to withdraw our troops and return.
Now that the bones of the military advisor are still cold, do the three generals want to disobey orders? The military advisor is ordered not to close his eyes!"
"you……
Zhang Fei glared at Zhao Yun, but Zhao Yun looked back without any sign of weakness.
The two were in a stalemate for a long time, but Zhang Fei was unable to get rid of Zhao Yun's blockage. After all, Zhao Yun was not comparable to his subordinates. As early as the fourth year of Jian'an, he defected to Liu Bei, saved Liu Bei from danger several times, and made countless plans.
Merit. Zhang Fei could not beat and scold him as he pleased, and Zhao Yun's skills were far more tyrannical than Zhang Fei's, which made Zhang Fei have to worry.
"If we withdraw our troops like this, won't we be ridiculed?"
"Is it the lord's foundation that is more important, or the three generals' faces that are more important?"
"Zilong, you..."
Zhao Yun's words made Zhang Fei so choked that he couldn't recover his anger for a long time. After a long time, he gave in dejectedly, "Then tell me, how should we withdraw our troops?"
"If we withdraw our troops at this time, Wu Yin will definitely pursue us.
After Yun Yuan is cut off, he will cover the evacuation of the army. The three generals can protect the remains of the military advisor at night and return to Wancheng. If Cao's army pursues, Yun Yuan will block it for the three generals."
Zhang Fei was silent!
After a long while, he paused and said angrily: "Just follow what Zilong said."

The night shrouds Bishui Beach.
It was midsummer, and the water was surging, with silver scales flashing under the moonlight.
Liu Bei walked to the beach and frowned.
"Brother, the little thief is stationed in Yangce Town and will neither advance nor retreat. What is his intention?"
Guan Yu stepped forward and asked softly.
Liu Bei shook his head, "Logically speaking, the little thief should have received the news of Wu Yin's attack, but there is no sign of help... There must be a trick in this! Yun Chang, we can't continue to wait, if Zi
If the little thief doesn't arrive, you and I will attack Yangce Town."
