Chapter 576

Liu Xiu's army pursued for an hour and a half before withdrawing.

The army came back all the way and began to count the results.

At night, it was almost early in the morning when everything was finally counted and the whole day was busy.

Chinese army big account!

Chen Dao, Yan Yan and Huo Jun come to the camp.

Huo Jun looked happy and said, "Lord, in today's World War I, we killed as many as 6000 Hanzhong soldiers and captured as many as 15000 Hanzhong soldiers. Zhang Lu interrogated the soldiers of Hanzhong army in his humble position, and nearly none of them were perfect. In this war, we have almost destroyed half of their strength. "

"Good!"

On Liu Xiu's face, there was a bright smile.

As soon as the words changed, Liu Xiu said, "what are our losses in this war?"

Chen Dao replied: "we have only lost 2000 soldiers in this battle. The wounded soldiers are all in the process of diagnosis and treatment. It will not be a big problem."

Thinking of the victory of the war, Chen Dao couldn't help smiling.

As a matter of fact, if Chen Zhi led the army to fight with Hanzhong army alone, it would not have been so successful.

Huang Hu and shamoko also contributed to this. Without Huang Hu's Flying Tiger camp soldiers and shamoko's barbarians fighting, this battle would not have been so easy.

Liu Xiu listened to the loss of the army, but also slightly nodded.

Such a loss, in exchange for such a big victory, it is quite good.

Huo Jun's joyful expression disappeared and replaced it with a dignified look, saying: "Lord, the most important thing now is how to deal with the prisoners. Eating more than 10000 prisoners at one time will add a great burden to the army. Even though Chengdu has plenty of food and grass, the more than 10000 mouths, together with our own soldiers, can not win the day's food consumption. "

Liu Xiu asked, "what are you going to do with it?"

Huo Jun said: "there are two aspects to consider humble position."

Liu xiudao: "you say!"

Huo Jun said: "first, select the best from the 15000 soldiers. I believe that the selection of elite must be the elite of elite, not the general elite. On initial consideration, it's almost enough to select a thousand people. "

Liu Xiu nodded slightly and agreed with Huo Jun's arrangement.

It's good to pick the best.

Liu Xiu said, "what about the second?"

Huo Jun continued: "second, release all the prisoners. But before they are released, we must let these soldiers know that the Lord has already sent soldiers to attack Hanzhong, and now Hanzhong is in his hands. "

"There are two benefits to this."

"On the one hand, these soldiers will definitely return to Zhang Lu's camp again after they escape. When they go back, they will spread the news so that countless people will know that Hanzhong has been attacked and the morale of the army will be in chaos again. Zhang Lu doesn't want to fight, and it's impossible to fight again. "

"On the other hand, Zhao Yun and Lu Su have led the army to leave first, preparing to rob and kill Zhang Lu on the way. When Zhang Lu was attacked in the rear, he withdrew his troops in a hurry. He did not expect us to be robbed and killed on the way. Virtually, it weakens Zhang Lu and enhances Zhao Yun's chances of winning. "

Huo Jun's eyes sparkled with wisdom, and he was very confident.

If Zhang Lu's strength is strong enough, Huo Jun will not release the prisoners, but Zhang Lu has already lost his family. Under such circumstances, the release of the prisoners will not enhance Zhang Lu's strength, but will weaken Zhang Lu's strength.

With a smile on his face, Liu Xiu said, "OK, I agree with your suggestion."

Huo Jun also said: "the humble duty is to release all the prisoners, we should be disciplining. Naturally, the preacher is the most suitable one. "

Liu Xiu didn't refuse and said, "it's too late tonight. Tomorrow morning, you'll call all the prisoners together, and then I'll lecture you myself."

Huo Jun said, "my Lord is wise!"

Liu Xiu waved his hand, and Chen Dao, Huo Jun and others left the camp.

……

The night was hazy and a full moon rose.

In the cold moonlight of the Han Army camp.

Chinese army big account!

Zhang Lu withdrew with the soldiers in a panic. He sat in the camp with a solemn expression and a deep worry in his eyes.

It's a terrible defeat!

More than 50, 000 troops were lost.

Up to now, there are only more than 10000 soldiers left in the camp.

In fact, in this battle, in addition to Liu Xiu's captives and beheaders, many other soldiers were lost in the process of escaping, so that Zhang Lu's troops lost a lot.

"Step on it! Step on it

A sound of footwork came from outside the account.

The tent curtain rolled up, but Yan Pu came in from the outside.

After Yan Pu stood still, he bowed his hand and made a salute: "I've seen my Lord in my humble position."

"Sit down!"When Zhang Lu waved his hand, his face was haggard and his voice was hoarse. During the day, when he fled, he kept yelling, so that his voice was hoarse.

Yan Pu gave thanks and sat down.

Zhang Lu said: "you haven't had a rest so late. What's the matter?"

Yan Pu said: "my Lord, I always feel that Liu Xiu may still have a plan."

Zhang Lu said: "why?"

Yan Pu replied, "Liu Xiu is always scheming before moving. He is extremely cunning. Just as he attacked Yizhou, it was actually arranged early. When he attacked Yufu County, Wang Ye, the county magistrate of Yufu County, surrendered. As soon as Zhao Yun attacked Fuling County, the officials in the county actually killed the officials and rebelled. "

"I'm afraid it's not easy for Liu Xiu to go to war openly this time."

"It is our rear area that we are worried about."

Yan Pu said anxiously: "we fight in the front, once there is a problem in the rear. Then the consequences will be very serious. But this is just a humble guess, and there is no news yet. "

As soon as Zhang Lu heard this, he felt a thump in his heart.

It's possible!

It's very possible!

Liu Xiu has always been cruel and cunning.

Zhang Lu swallowed his saliva and said, "Yan Pu, your analysis is reasonable. Maybe when Liu Xiu was planning Yizhou, he had already started planning Hanzhong. Unfortunately, it's a pity that we were lured by him, so that our master was so dazzled by his interests that he believed Liu Xiu's words. Otherwise, if we don't attack Yizhou, Liu Xiu will also face difficulties. "

Yan Pu sighed: "no matter what, there is no way now. Now, we just need to be prepared. Take a rest tonight, and retreat at full speed tomorrow morning. "

Zhang Lu heard the speech and nodded heavily.

Suddenly, Zhang Lu said: "Yan Pu, I am not willing to be defeated or cheated by Liu Xiu. Liu Xiu first captured Yizhou, but now he's back. He's clearly trying to capture the whole of Yizhou, even Hanzhong. Liu Xiu is so immoral. I'm not willing. Do you have a plan to defeat the enemy? "

When Yan Pu heard the speech, he gave a bitter smile.

How to defeat the enemy?

Now it is quite difficult to turn the situation around.

Yan Pu thought about it and said, "Lord, it's impossible for us to change the situation. The reason is that we have lost our first hand in this war. You see, Bajun is in Liu Xiu's hands, and Chengdu is in Liu Xiu's hands. Even now we only have more than 10000 people left. We don't have enough food and equipment. We can't win. "

"Alas..."

Zhang Lu heard the speech and sighed.

Yan Pu said: "in addition, I'm worried that Hanzhong will not be able to defend. At that time, the Lord should prepare for the worst and ask Cao Cao for help when he returns to Hanzhong. At present, we can't resist Liu Xiu. So we can only ask Cao Cao for help. Only Cao Cao's troops can contain Liu Xiu. "

Zhang Lu frowned slightly when he heard the speech.

To ask Cao Cao for help, isn't it to lead the wolf into the house and let Cao Cao, the hungry wolf, enter Hanzhong? Even if Cao Cao defeated Liu Xiu, Zhang Lu still couldn't keep Hanzhong, because Cao Cao would not leave after he came to Hanzhong.

Yan Pu saw Zhang Lu's expression and said, "Lord, we have no choice."

Hearing this, Zhang Lu sighed, "Alas..."

After waving his hand, Zhang Lu signals Yan Pu to step down. He wants to be quiet and calm down, so that he won't be completely submerged by the current low mood.

Zhang Lu clenched his fist and calculated to loosen it. He clenched his fist again and then loosened it. So back and forth, several times in a row, Zhang Lu finally gave a long breath, and then returned to bed to rest.

We can't control the situation, we have to let it go.
