I saw the tiger and leopard rider retreating like a tide...
Liu Pan did not have the idea of pursuing the victory, and at the same time ordered the guards around him to wave the flags, so that the soldiers who were red-eyed on the front line could slowly withdraw their troops.
The purpose of this battle has been achieved, and there is no need to continue taking risks.
Although he had only fought with the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry for less than half a day, the casualties of the Jiangxia army definitely reached an astonishing number.
The endless military formation, which was originally like the ocean, was half missing in his eyes, and the heavy casualties can be imagined.
After experiencing this battle, the combat power of his men and horses will be incomparable to the past.
After all, the ones who are fighting are the elite tiger and leopard cavalry in the world!
Speaking of which, the Jiangxia army definitely took a big advantage this time. Taking advantage of the scattered tiger and leopard cavalry, they could finally force the opponent back, which showed signs of being unable to win.
Of course, if you win, you win, and it doesn’t matter if you try to do it.
Liu Pan has experienced the battle formation for a long time, so he naturally knows this.
The goal of this trip has been achieved, and it is already quite good to be able to train troops by the way, and he has not asked for more.
Of course, he can't deal with the matter of cleaning the battlefield.
He glanced at the location of Liu Bei Shuaiqi, turned his horse's head and prepared to go over to see this person. To be honest, he was not very interested in this person.
Don’t talk nonsense about Liu Bei’s benevolence and righteousness…
As a confidant general promoted by Duke Jing Sheng, how could Liu Pan not understand the subtle relationship between Duke Jing Sheng and Liu Bei?
At the beginning, the reason why Duke Jing Sheng accepted Liu Bei was to let Liu Bei act as a barrier in Jingzhou and resist the threat of Cao's army in Nanyang.
But who would have expected that Cao's army would not arrive for a long time, but instead asked Liu Bei to establish a foothold in the Xinye area, which was very depressing.
In particular, Liu Bei is very good at interpersonal relationships. I don’t know when Liu Bei’s supporters appeared in the Jingzhou Muslim Mansion.
In addition, Liu Bei holds 100,000 soldiers and is assisted by peerless generals like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei. I feel irritated when I think about it.
What made Mr. Jing Sheng the most depressed was that Liu Bei was invited by him, which was almost the same as attracting a wolf into the house.
Before, Jing Shenggong almost killed Liu Bei...
Unfortunately, Liu Bei was so lucky that he actually asked him to escape the danger of his death, and he would have no chance after that.
As a general of Jingzhou, Liu Pan knew these things clearly...
It would be impossible to make him have a good impression of Liu Bei.
The timely reinforcements at present were also the order of the eldest son, and due to the situation, otherwise he would not want to come here in person.
"Hey, why don't you chase the fleeing tiger and leopard cavalry?"
At this moment, a cavalry suddenly fell from the sky, wrapped in the rolling black flames, with people and horses. The indescribable majesty and domineering sound was like a thunderous explosion.
Liu Pan's heart was terrified, feeling as if he was being targeted by a peerless beast, and his hair stood on his body and felt a sense of fear.
He quickly realized that when he saw Zhang Fei, who was as majestic as the demon god Linfan, he said angrily: "If General Zhang is so capable, why don't he chase him?"
On Zhang Fei, he sensed a very familiar oppressive aura.
He has been with Huang Zhong for many years and has not experienced such terrifying power. He has some experience, at least he was not shocked by Zhang Fei's full momentum at this time.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhang Fei was so murderous that he was so excited that he heard this. He suddenly had a pair of copper bells with big eyes wide open and shouted angrily: "If there are a thousand soldiers in his hand, he will definitely not be asked to evacuate easily!"
"So what's there to say?"
Liu Pan was under great pressure and sneered: "When the general gathered a thousand troops, he could quickly catch up!"
"you!"
It’s really a pot that doesn’t open and pick up. Liu Pan’s words are simply a scab that can be exposed. Zhang Fei could not bear this, and he was furious and was about to take action.
hehe……
Liu Pan's eyes were cold and sharp, and there was no sign of timidity at all.
The aura of the personal guards following behind him was connected in a huge circle, with the military aura above his head rolling and majestic, and could provide tremendous power at any time, so that his strength could instantly increase to the top of the first class, and his aura would not be much worse than Zhang Fei.
It would have been fine if he had no experience in dealing with peerless generals in the past, but he had a good relationship with Huang Zhong...
At that time, Huang Zhong was only in his early fifties and was still at his peak. His power and strength were definitely above Zhang Fei.
It was also under Huang Zhong's guidance that his cultivation level was from the third-rate realm and could reach the second-rate peak in just a short time, and there was no reason to be afraid of Zhang Fei.
"Yide must not do anything wrong!"
Just as the atmosphere was tense, Liu Bei's reprimand came.
Obviously, Zhang Fei was very fond of this, and the rolling black flames on his body suddenly dissipated, and the evil spirit on his face also disappeared, as if he was not the one who was about to start beating him just now.
Liu Pan breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand to signal the guards behind him not to be nervous, then looked at Liu Bei and his party riding on horseback.
"Bei, thank you for your rescue!"
Liu Bei rode his horse and quickly turned over and landed with gratitude.
Liu Pan did not ask for help, and hurriedly dismounted and replied, "Your Majesty, please be welcome. You have also been ordered by the eldest son!"
"Oh, the general turned out to be General Jiangxia!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Bei was very surprised and hurriedly invited him warmly: "It's not a good place to speak now, so why not go to the hill next to you to speak!"
Liu Pan did not refuse, followed with his personal guards and went directly to the hill next to him, where he could see signs of a mess within ten miles.
"This time, thanks to the general and a certain nephew!"
"You're welcome. The eldest son said when he sent someone over here that if the envoy made a question, Jiang Xia would not be able to withstand the strong soldiers of Cao's army!"
"Oh, I feel ashamed to speak. I have been training for many years and finally gathering 100,000 elite soldiers, but I cannot resist the continuous impact of Cao Zhe's troops. Finally, I think it is the current situation!"
"The lord doesn't need this. The power of Cao thieves will unify the northern land, and the army is under one million. It is not that easy to deal with!"
"I wonder what my nephew has?"
"The eldest son invited the envoy to station in Fankou and form a horn-like force with Jiangxia to fight against the Cao bandits together!"
“So great!”
Liu Bei just pondered for a moment and quickly agreed.
In fact, he originally wanted to go to Jiangling City, which had a high wall and had stockpiled a lot of food, grass and weapons, and was very important in geographical location.
If you really occupy Jiangling City, there will be more room for you to play in the future.
However, the Cao army is so embarrassed that the troops can gather together, and there will definitely be no more than 30,000 troops, and they are all newly defeated troops.
If you fight against the main force of Cao's army again, the consequences will be unimaginable.
The previous ten thousand tiger and leopard cavalry chased so hard, probably because there were factors in this regard.
Liu Bei has extremely rich combat experience and may not be able to do specific strategies and strategies, but his vision and ability are absolutely not bad.
Unless the troops who supported Liu Pan were willing to obey the orders.
But, this is impossible...
Liu Pan's troops can retreat ten thousand tiger and leopard cavalry with great battles and losses, and they are definitely considered elite troops.
Such elite troops are definitely very few in the hands of Liu Qi, the prefect of Jiangxia.
In such a chaotic world, only with soldiers in your hands can you have the opportunity to struggle and survive.
Not to mention that his relationship with Liu Qi is quite subtle, no matter how close the relationship is, it is impossible to be so generous.
At the critical moment, he supported Liu Bei and saved him from the catastrophe.
Liu Pan realized that he had completed the task and immediately offered his farewell to Liu Bei.
As a result, Liu Bei's enthusiasm was to stay, and he planned to stay for one more day, and waited for Liu Bei to gather enough defeated troops before leaving.
At the same time, he secretly sighed in his heart that Liu Bei's means of winning over relationships were too powerful, and even if he had any resistance in his heart, he could not withstand it.
And in the next day, a steady stream of defeated soldiers rushed over, which opened his eyes and was very surprised.
You know, Liu Bei is not a local war!
Even if local wars are fought, at least half of the defeated generals will disappear completely and will not take the initiative to surrender to the previously defeated boss.
But the situation on Liu Bei's side was a bit strange.
It seemed as if its body was emitting light, it attracted one after another of the collapsed soldiers. The number of people gathered more and more, and soon it gathered tens of thousands of defeated soldiers.
Among them, there are also peerless generals like Zhao Zilong, Changshan. Liu Pan was stunned and didn't know what to say.
Sure enough, as the eldest son said, Liu Bei was able to survive the Yellow Turban Rebellion and endure the heroes to death since he was the Yellow Turban Rebellion.
Not only was he observing how Liu Bei and his party successfully gathered the defeated troops, but Liu Bei's side was obviously very interested in him, Jiangxia general.
Although Liu Bei did not take the initiative to inquire, the two peerless generals Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun took the initiative to come and chat.
It felt very funny. Fortunately, the eldest son had already given some instructions before coming, so Liu Pan also said everything, which gave him enough face.
Liu Bei soon learned about the situation in Jiangxia...
"I don't want to have some tricks for that nephew!"
"After all, he is the eldest son of Duke Jing Sheng. He has been strictly trained since childhood. He may not be a little hard enough in character, but it is impossible to say that the eldest son does not have much ability!"
Liu Bei's confidant was smiling and talking about this to him.
"That's right, Cao's army is about to fight Jiangxia. If that nephew hasn't made any statement yet, it would be hopeless!"
"It's just a pity that Mr. Jing Sheng passed away too quickly, and the time left for the eldest son was too short, otherwise we would have more help!"
"Yes, but the current situation is pretty good for us!"
"Yes, if the eldest son's Jiang Xia army was too strong, our lives would not be very easy, so it was just right!"
"It's just that Cao thief is powerful and Jiang Xia's strength is too weak, he may be in danger of overturning at any time. What if he can do?"
"Lord, don't worry. In addition to us and Jiangxia's eldest son, Sun Quan from Jiangdong is also shocked at this time!"
...
It is said that Liu Qi sent his general Liu Pan to lead 20,000 Jiangxia troops who had been trained to help Liu Bei who was defeated in time, and promptly defeated the relentless Tiger and Leopard Cavalry in Dangyang, giving Liu Bei a chance to breathe, and retained it.
More strength and combat power.
He did not act like this completely kindly...
Liu Bei suffered too heavy losses, which was not a good thing for the future alliance between Sun and Liu, so he naturally had to help him secretly.
In addition, I don’t want the Xuzhou faction under Liu Da’er to end quickly.
In real history, with the death of Mrs. Mi, Xuzhou Group, which was originally one of the main forces of Liu Bei's group, quickly declined until Mi Fang's defection to Jiangdong completely ended.
It is precisely because of this that after the Battle of Chibi, the Liu Bei group easily completed the transfer of power, making it easy for the newly defected Jingzhou scholars to take office and did not encounter serious internal friction or internal struggle.
Liu Qi naturally would not let Liu Bei live so smoothly...
Liu Pan was sent to support in time, so that Mrs. Mi, the backbone of Xuzhou Group under Liu Bei Group, could still live well.
As long as Mrs. Mi is not dead, the Xuzhou Group's momentum and influence will not decline quickly. When Liu Bei accepts the scholars of Jingzhou in the future, it will be impossible to complete the transfer of power so smoothly.
Another aspect is that I don’t want Liu Bei’s strength to lose too much, and he is in a too weak position in the later Sun-Liu alliance.
In official history, the so-called Sun-Liu Alliance is just a joke...
At that time, Liu Bei had only 10,000 infantry supported by Jiangxia, as well as the so-called Jiangxia naval army, and the 10,000 garbage soldiers controlled by Liu Qi.
The Battle of Red Cliff was almost completed by Dongwu!
As for Liu Bei, it is probably because Sun Quan brought up warships to make up his numbers in order to increase his momentum, and he had no say in the Sun-Liu alliance.
Although Zhuge Liang was all mythical in the Romance, if you think about it carefully, you would not play much role at all.
Could it be that if Zhuge Liang did not go on a mission to the Eastern Wu to fight against the scholars, Sun Quan would not have the possibility of a ferocious battle with Cao's army? What a joke?
With Zhou Yu and Lu Su, two pro-war factions, as well as military tycoons such as Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang, it would be impossible for Sun Quan to really surrender.
Liu Qi means that Liu Bei will preserve more strength and have more say in the future Sun-Liu alliance.
When the Battle of Red Cliff ended and the Sun-Liu alliance shared the results, I think Sun Quan would never underestimate Liu Bei at that time, so Liu Bei quietly took advantage.
There are so many benefits to sending Liu Pan to support, Liu Qi will naturally not let it go.
At this time, he had not yet developed any ambition to fight for the world, but he did not think about being a puppet at the mercy of others.
Whether it is Jiangdong taking over Jingzhou or Liu Bei becoming the lord of Jingzhou, it is not a good thing for Liu Qi.
The best result is that Jingzhou has a mixed power and no one can dominate the country. This is the best result for Liu Qi.
Therefore, the ambush that should be fought must be fought in advance, and then you can sit in the mountains and watch the tiger fight.
At least, before Liu Bei completely straightened out and decided to win and lose with Jiangdong, he would not easily offend Liu Qi, a special identity.
Just as Liu Qi was making a secret arrangement, Liu Dang, the leader of his personal guard, hurried over and reported: "Young Master, we have caught an envoy from the Eastern Wu at Xiakou Wharf, saying that he was mourning Duke Jing Sheng!
”
Liu Qi had a strange smile on his face and said curiously: "Oh, who is Jiang Dong?"
