Chapter 966

When Zhang Xiu saw Cao Jun's scene, she was quite shocked, but she was also filled with emotion.

So is Cao Cao and so is Cao Jun.

The death of Cao Cao represents the end of Wei state.

In fact, if yuan Jun was the same, it would be quite difficult for Zhang Xiu to defeat Jin. Fortunately, there is only one Cao Cao and only one Wei state in the world. Cao Cao is the only one who can block his attack.

Zhang Xiu ordered to clean up the battlefield and count the losses.

Without looking at Zhang Xiu, he also knew that his own troops had suffered a great loss in this battle.

Cao Cao had more than 100000 people, all of them were buried here, and no one surrendered or fled. Under such a premise, Zhang Xiu's loss is definitely quite a lot.

When Zhang Xiu counted the losses, Cao ang and his party, who were retreating on the other side, also stopped for a rest in the evening.

Today's Cao ang is lost in his heart.

It means that Cao Cao will not survive.

Cao ang looked at Guo Jia, Xun Yu and others, and said, "gentlemen, now my father is dying, and our army is almost destroyed. We are taking only a few hundred troops. Even if I return to fenggao County, I'm afraid I can only withdraw from Taishan County immediately. What should we do now? "

Guo Jia said: "Shizi, what we can do now is to withdraw from Taishan county and go to Qingzhou according to the arrangement of the king of Wei. But when we retreat, we can arrange for people to go north and ask Yuan Shao to send troops to help us again. "

"Although Yuan Shao lost several times to Zhang Xiu, in fact, Zhang Xiu still has a considerable strength. Today, the king of Wei and Zhang Xiu fight to death with his army. Although Zhang Xiu wins, in the end, Zhang Xiu's army of more than 100000 is left with 30000 or 40000 people at most. "

"This is also a great casualty for the state of Qin."

"Such a force, especially after it has been weakened, can no longer wipe out Qingzhou, Xuzhou and other places. Therefore, on the one hand, we are defending ourselves; on the other hand, we ask Yuan Shao to help us. Of course, whether Yuan Shao is willing to help depends on his choice. "

Guo Jia analyzed: "in a word, we withdraw from Taishan county and rush to Qingzhou."

Cheng Yu, with a mournful look, said, "what filial piety says is true."

Others agreed.

The situation is unfavourable, and now we can only retreat like this.

Cao ang nodded and looked at Liu Bei and asked, "Xuande, what are you going to do?"

Liu Bei said: "my Yuzhou foundation has been occupied by Zhang Xiu, and it is impossible to return to Yuzhou. Now I can only live under my son, and I hope he can take me in. "

Cao ang said, "Xuande is the best if he can help me."

Now it's about survival.

Even if Liu Bei is not willing to surrender, Cao ang is willing to keep Liu Bei. After all, the current strength is insufficient, and Zhang Xiu may kill him at any time. If there were no external threats, Cao ang would not have left Liu Bei, but now he needs Liu Bei's help.

After all, Liu Bei has a little elite around him.

It can stabilize the situation.

Liu Bei said, "thank you, Shizi."

All of a sudden, Zhuge Liang took up the conversation and said, "all along, we've ignored Jiang Dong's sun CE. This sun CE occupied Jiangdong and called himself king of Wu. In fact, his strength was not weak. In recent years, Jiangdong has not been affected by the war and is extremely powerful. So I think we can get help from Jiangdong. This time, I'm willing to take the initiative as a diplomatic envoy to go south to Jiangdong and ask for an alliance with Jiangdong to fight against Zhang Xiu. "

When Cao ang heard this, he thought.

He is not a man without knowledge.

Nowadays, the strength of Wei state is greatly weakened. If we make an alliance with sun ce of Jiangdong, in case Jiangdong's forces enter, it will be very disadvantageous to Wei state.

Cao ang turned his eyes and looked at Guo Jia, but saw that Guo Jia nodded slightly.

Immediately, Cao ang said, "I agree with Mr. Zhuge's suggestion. In that case, Mr. Zhuge worked hard. If sun ce of Jiangdong could garrison troops in Jiangxia county to contain Zhang Xiu, that would be the best. "

Zhuge Liang said: "please don't worry. I will try my best to persuade sun CE to seize the land of Jingnan. Today's Daqin is more and more difficult to deal with. Therefore, it is not limited to alliance. I will try my best to persuade sun CE to attack Daqin. "

"So best!"

Cao ang nodded.

After that, Cao ang looked back at the officials in the rear, with a lonely look on his face. His heart, is how hope, Cao Cao can come back, can return to his side.

After half an hour's rest, the army continued on its way to fenggao county.

Late at night, Zhang Xiu's army all finished counting. On this battlefield, a torch burns, dispelling the darkness, making the whole battlefield like day.

One by one, the generals came to Zhang Xiu's side.

The expression on all faces was rather gloomy and serious.

Zhang Xiu looked around and finally fell on Huang Zhong and asked, "Han Sheng, what's the situation of this war?"Huang Zhong said: "to your highness, the situation of our armies is summarized. Now there are more than 49000 soldiers left, and all the rest of them died in battle. As for Cao Jun, nearly 100000 soldiers died in the war, all of them were killed, and few of them survived. Although we annihilated the main force of Cao's army, even captured Li Dian and Xu Huang alive, and even killed Cao Cao in this war, in fact, our losses were huge. After all, our main force has lost too much. "

The fighting in this war is too fierce.

Cao's army would rather die than retreat. All of them fought desperately, which caused great damage to the soldiers of Qin army. Even if Cao Cao's soldiers were killed one by one, they also killed countless Qin soldiers.

This battle is not easy.

This is the first time that Zhang Xiu has suffered such a great loss. His own troops have also been reduced by 80 to 90 thousand, which can be described as an unprecedented loss.

Zhang Xiu's expression was silent, which was also a sigh.

This is the case on the battlefield.

Since ancient times, on the battlefield, there have been several battles in ancient times. Those who can survive on the battlefield are the elite among the elite.

Zhang Xiu brushed her sleeve and said, "all the soldiers who died in the war should be registered. Then a hero's tomb should be built here to comfort the dead soldiers. All the bodies, burn them together. The pensions for all soldiers who died in the war and the awards for other soldiers who rendered meritorious service will be increased. "

"Here it is

Huang Zhong's fist should be thrown.

Huang Zhong was also deeply tragic about the war.

It was a terrible battle. Even though there are still nearly 50000 soldiers under his command, many of them have been injured and their combat effectiveness has been greatly damaged.

It's difficult to make a concerted effort to completely destroy the state of Wei.

However, after the first World War, Wei's strength could not be restored without three or four years. Even if Wei's troops were restored, its combat effectiveness could not be completely restored.

Because people can't come back from death.

Cao Cao is dead!

Dianway is dead!

Li Dian, Xu Huang and others were captured alive!

These people, it is impossible to survive, this is the state of Wei can no longer recover.

Zhang Xiu took a deep breath, suppressed her feelings, looked at Jia Xu, Pang Tong, Sima Yi and others, and said, "now that the war has reached this point, what do you think we should do next?"

Taking advantage of the situation, Zhang Song said: "Your Highness, I think we should pursue while winning. It took us nine oxen and two tigers to win this battle. Today, Cao Wei's troops who fled are almost negligible. Although we have not found Cao ang and others and they have withdrawn, in fact, these forces are insignificant. As long as we kill, we will win. I'd like to suggest that we start again. "

He had expectations in his eyes.

I hope Zhang Xiu will take his advice.
