Chapter 925

Liu Bei led his troops northward to Kunyang county. On the way, he got the news that the army led by Zhang Yan went straight to Jia county to the north of Fucheng county. Cao Ren sent troops to attack Fucheng County, and the army led by Zhang Yan retreated and stationed in Fucheng county again.

It means that Zhang and Huang have no breakthrough.

This is what Liu Bei wants to see.

Once the army led by Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong broke through Xiangcheng County and directly attacked Xu county, even if he brought the army to help, it would not help. Therefore, Liu Bei is more pleased to be able to hold on now.

Towards noon, the army stopped to rest and began to cook. One by one, the cooks were busy. Soon, the camp was filled with the fragrance of rice and meat.

However, Liu Bei has no idea whether the food is delicious or not. What he focuses on is how to win the war and go to Jingzhou under the current situation.

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang, who was not far away from him, and said, "Kong Ming, we have already arrived in Kunyang county. After lunch, we will soon arrive in the county. When we arrive in Kunyang County, will we go north to Fucheng County, or stay in Kunyang County, or go to Xiangcheng County? "

Zhuge Liang said: "Lord, Cao Cao led 80000 troops to Dongjun to encircle Zhang Xiu. So the main battlefield of this war should be concentrated in Dongjun, so we don't have to fight Zhang Xiu's army. "

"Our main energy is to help Cao Ren hold down the Qin army and prevent the army led by Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong from defeating Cao Ren. So when we arrived in Kunyang County, we turned around and went to Xiangcheng County to meet Cao Ren. "

Zhuge Liang said: "if we cooperate with the state of Wei, we will benefit both sides, and it is easy to defend. Once separated, it is easy to be broken by each one. "

Liu Bei said, "what the military adviser said is true."

Liu Bei agrees with Zhuge Liang's analysis. Now the best way is to join Cao Ren.

After the convergence of the two sides, there were more than 60000 or 70000 troops. It will not be too difficult to resist Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong's army, but it will be quite easy.

After the plan was made, Liu Bei said with emotion: "if this war can defeat Zhang Xiu, everything will be OK. If Zhang Xiu could not be defeated, the state of Wei would be in danger and the state of Chu would be in danger. This is not only the war of Wei, but also the war of Chu

He's a little worried!

After all, Zhang Xiu is not simple, and Zhang Xiu against, he has never won.

Zhuge Liang said, "my Lord, this is the battle of Wei and Chu. As a matter of fact, it was also the battle of the state of Qin. If Zhang Xiu is defeated this time, she will not be able to go east again. "

"We will win!"

Liu Bei clenched his fist and spoke with a firm face.

"Big brother is right. We will win."

Guan Yu also spoke.

Liu Bei, Guan Yu, Zhuge Liang and others chatted, waiting for the meal to come, having lunch, and resting for another two quarters of an hour, the army set out again.

This way is directly to Kunyang county.

When the army arrived in Kunyang County, Liu Bei did not stop, but turned to Xiangcheng County.

After all, Liu Bei still has food.

Now the situation is urgent. If you go to Xiangcheng County and meet Cao Ren earlier, you will be more likely to hold Xiangcheng County and block Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong.

Liu Bei did not enter the city, nor did he stay in Kunyang County, which made Zhang jaw quite sorry.

What a pity!

If Liu Bei enters the city, it will be as easy as a palm to wipe him out. When Liu Bei began to turn around and go all the way to Xiangcheng County, Zhang Yan no longer hesitated and resolutely ordered to attack.

The first troops to attack were the cavalry in the regular army and the cavalry in the feiqiang army. The strength of these two groups of cavalry is nearly ten thousand people, which are also the cavalry specially used for killing.

Behind the mighty cavalry is the army led by Zhang Ya and aguli.

The army went all out to pursue Liu Bei, especially the cavalry. After a short period of pursuit, they got close to Liu Bei's tail and killed him.

As the cavalry charged and the sword fell, Liu Bei's soldiers were killed and the wolves ran to the grave. They kept running, and there were more wails.

The news soon spread to the Chinese army.

When the news reached Liu Bei's ears, Liu Bei was confused.

It's under attack!

He was attacked.

Liu jiuzhong was in a panic. There are more than 30000 elite soldiers under his command, and the number of infantry is the majority. Under such a premise, if the two sides fight, the army under his command will be defeated like a mountain, and it will not be able to defend.

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and asked, "what should I do, military strategist? Zhang Ya and Huang Zhong's army have come to kill us. Now, what can we do to keep this war

Zhuge Liang's hand was shaking the feather fan faster. His face was dignified, but he was also relieved: "Lord, the forces of Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong can't all be in Kunyang county. They quietly lurked to Kunyang County, and it is certain that there are still some troops in Fucheng county. ""Therefore, although we are in danger now, we will not be defeated like a mountain."

"At the moment, you can't love to fight."

"Retreat, we'll retreat to Xiangcheng County at full speed. Try to get rid of the pursuit of the rear as soon as possible. "

Zhuge Liang at the moment sighed in his heart.

There was another ambush.

He didn't even understand. He was ambushed before he could react.

Liu Bei also knows that he can only retreat quickly now. He quickly arranged for the sentry to report and deliver the message, so he did not delay any longer and ordered the evacuation to continue.

Liu Bei's army lost a lot in this retreat. From the territory of Kunyang County, they killed all the way to the border of Kunyang county. Only at night did the pursuers in the rear retreat.

Only when Liu Bei's army was safe did it not be covered up again. When the army stopped to rest, Liu Bei immediately ordered the soldiers to count the losses. After all the losses are counted, Liu Bei's face turns black when Guan Yu reports the results.

During the daytime war, he lost more than 13000 soldiers.

Today, there are only more than 16000 people under his command.

Of course, not all of these 13000 people were killed, because in addition to some of the soldiers who were killed, a considerable number of soldiers fled everywhere and will come back to join us later.

Even so, the loss is huge.

He didn't even see Zhang Xiu, Zhang Yan and Huang Zhong, so he was covered up and killed, so that he lost nearly half of his troops. Such a loss is undoubtedly huge.

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang and said, "military strategist, originally we thought that if we beat Zhang Xiu in this war, we would have a chance to go south to Jingzhou. But now, it seems, it's a bad start. As soon as he came out, he was hit head-on. "

Zhuge Liang said: "my Lord, don't be discouraged. Although we are at a disadvantage, we may not have a chance to turn over. The most important thing is that we don't know about the war here in Yingchuan county. We didn't expect that Kunyang county was quietly occupied by Zhang Yan. This is our intelligence. Something's wrong. When we meet with Cao Ren, it will be better. "

"Let's go. We'll drive all night."

Liu Bei is not willing to stay, under the command of the army, continue to Xiangcheng County direction.
