Outside Kunyang City, the camp is in a greenhouse.

The successive military intelligence of the Wei army was sent here, causing Liu Bei, who was supposed to be in the camp for the fourth watch, to stay again.

Liu Feng and Cao Hong coerced Cao Xiu to run away, and they could take away at least 50,000 or 60,000 foot soldiers, more than 10,000 knights, or even nearly 20,000 horsemen.

The internal contradictions within the Wei State have reached the point where they cannot be suppressed, and now if they send troops to attack and chase and kill, they will definitely be able to inflict heavy damage on Cao Zhen.

As long as Cao Zhen is hit hard again, the next battle will be much more convenient whether it is in Chencang, Wankou, or Yique.

In Tian Xin's greenhouse, Pang Lin analyzed the strength of the various divisions of the Wei army after the split, and Cao Zhen lost almost all the infantry in the first battle of Eagle Mountain, and only broke through with more than 30,000 cavalry.

A third of the more than 30,000 horsemen followed Niu Jin and Wang Shuang out, Cao Zhen had 20,000 horsemen left, Zhang Hezhong's army more than 30,000, and Xiahou Shang's more than 30,000 left, which was 80,000 foot horses.

When Cao Xiu left, Zhao Yan's more than 20,000 Hedong and Hanoi auxiliary regiments did not follow, so Cao Zhen had 100,000 people in his hands at the moment.

If the main force of the Han army abandons the pursuit of the heavy and light troops at this moment, and intercepts Cao Zhen before he hides in the Tiger Prison Pass, not to mention the total annihilation, it can also be inflicted heavy losses and play a second Eagle Mountain victory.

But what if this is a play played by Cao Zhen and Cao Xiu cooperating with each other?

The pursuit of light troops strengthens mobility, and the ability to attack fortified and field battles will be weakened, and it is impossible to carry too many supplies.

Each other's forces are easy to calculate, and the distance is also fixed, if Cao Zhen retreats, he can only retreat to Xingyang and Hujiaoguan.

Runan and Chenjun have been disabled, the people have taken refuge or moved, and it has almost become a no-man's land, and Cao Zhen has only a dead end to run south and east.

The terrain around Xingyang is not conducive to holding on, so Cao Zhen must withdraw into the Tiger Prison Pass if he wants to withdraw.

Cao Zhen can run 300 miles to reach the Tiger Prison Pass, while his own side has to chase 400 miles to catch up with the Tiger Prison Pass.

The front of the Tiger Prison Pass is not suitable for volleying, so the maximum pursuit distance of your own side should be three hundred and fifty miles, and strive to catch up with Cao Allah in Xingyang.

And Cao Zhen's department marched overnight, so at this moment, the closest distance from Cao Zhen's department is also one hundred and fifty miles away, and Cao Zhen can run more than two hundred miles to enter the Tiger Prison Pass.

Therefore, it was impractical to pursue Cao Allah's forces in an attempt to destroy his main force, and the best result was to eat the Wei army's broken troops.

No one can persuade Liu Bei now, if he doesn't chase after him, Liu Bei will eat in the future as if he didn't put salt.

Tian Xin wore a mask with a layer of wet cloth to watch the map, his state was definitely not suitable for participating in the pursuit, this pursuit should be within five to eight days, so his task was to stay here, transport the prisoners to the rear in batches, and respond as a large army.

Just as he and Pang Lin were thinking and analyzing, Yang Yi came in a hurry, and his face was very unnatural.

Walking into the conservatory, he arched his hand and trembled: "Gongshang...... His Majesty sent Deng Bomiao to summon urgently. ”

Pang Lin frowned: "What is such a gaffe?" ”

"Yi doesn't dare to say anything, it's a matter of urgency."

Yang Yi was deeply moved, Tian Xin turned around and went to put on a bear fur, put on a hat and walked out of the greenhouse.

The greenhouse was repaired in the big tent, and Deng Zhi saw Tian Xin at the tent door, bowed his hand, approached three steps and whispered: "Public, last night Wu Ban rebelled, wanted to burn Fangcheng to store grain, conspired to kill Ma Shuchang, and fled in defeat." ”

Tian Xin frowned, and he couldn't understand why Wu Ban was the opposite.

The pension and posthumous title given to Wu Yi are already very generous, Wu Ban is already the second-ranked core general of the Chinese army, and the next step to be promoted to the general of the Quartet is really unreasonable to rebel.

Deng Zhi said in a trembling voice: "Wu Ban conspired with the captured military officials, nearly a thousand military officials rebelled, and about half of them died in the chaos. ”

Each of the captured officers had a network of relatives, and four or five hundred people were killed, and they deserved it, but it also increased the estrangement between the Han army and their relatives.

Important things often go through foreshadowing, Tian Xin raised his hand to cover his mask, nodded at Deng Zhi, and motioned for him to continue.

Deng Zhi glanced left and right, and saw that it was either Beifu soldiers or Nanyang and Xiangyang people, so he said: "Your Majesty heard the news, and he was angry and vomited blood, so he summoned the public." ”

"Ho! Ahem! ”

Tian Xin trembled slightly, nodded after breathing steadily, and motioned for Deng Zhi to lead the way.

Liu Bei camped, and the army was packing up before dawn to prepare for the pursuit.

Along the way, the officials met Tian Xin and stopped to salute, and Tian Xin also shook his fists in return, and there was no verbal exchange.

In Liu Bei's big tent, when Tian Xin came in, Liu Bei was lying on the warm couch, holding hands with Guan Yu on the other side and talking in a low voice, Zhang Fei took off his boots for Liu Bei at the end of the bed, he had taken off one, and he was taking off another colored patent leather boots.

As the Great Han Sanke, Tian Xin bowed slightly to Liu Bei, glanced at the people of Shangshutai standing on the edge, and more than 20 people such as Yushi, Huangmen Shilang, and Confessor, and the generals were only Chen Shi and Zhang Nan.

Guan Xing brought a bamboo bench for Tian Xin, and Tian Xin sat beside Guan Yu and listened to Liu Bei Guan Yu's conversation.

"Yizhou is the land of abundance, the climate is warm and moist to nourish people, and I want to lead filial piety to return to Yizhou to recuperate."

Liu Bei coughed lightly and looked at Tian Xin: "I know that Jingxiang is inseparable from filial piety, and filial piety is very prestigious in Jingman and Wuximan. Nanzhong Haoqiang will rebel, Wen Zhen and Xiaoxian are seriously ill, and they will not be stable. Therefore, I first returned to Yizhou to intimidate him from acting rashly. ”

"Huang Gongheng will do his best to help Xiangzhou manpower and material resources, and filial piety must be refined to train a barbarian army, and it is wonderful to take 10,000 people."

Liu Bei's tone was gentle: "After the selection and training, you can take Guangzhou Lu Dai to open the knife." This army was formed, and the South Central Change could be sent to South China to participate in the war. If Nanzhong is blocked, Xiaoxian merges with Dingguo and Mengxing, uproots Jiangxia and Wuchang, and breaks Sun Quan's arm. ”

Tian Xin listened and blinked from time to time and nodded his head to show his understanding.

Liu Bei added: "He Qi, Pan Zhang and others can be killed or not, and He Qi can descend if he can." If Pan Jun oversees the soldiers to fight, teach this person a good lesson and let him know his mistakes. ”

With Pan Jun's prudence, it was almost impossible to give Tian Xin a chance to surprise and behead him in battle.

When Tian Xin pondered the inevitable battle with Pan Jun, Liu Bei continued to say to Guan Yu: "I want to re-establish Nanxiang County, change its name to Deng Guo, and change it to Qinghua Fengyi. Zhengguo and Nanyang two counties are composed of Xiaoxianjun Tun, Mengqitun Jiangxia County, Yidetun Yiyang County, Dingguo Tun Xiangyang County, Yunchang sits in Jiangling and leads Jingzhou Mu. ”

The army was victorious, and contact was restored with the missing son, daughter and son-in-law.

The son got a Yan King by himself, and the two daughters also had to make amends, Tian Xin listened quietly.

Sure enough, Liu Bei made his two biological daughters Princess Peiguo and Princess Qianguo respectively, and Princess Gaoyang was also renamed Princess of Tang Kingdom.

Every time Liu Bei said a word here, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei did not object, and Shang Shutai organized the language and wrote the edict.

Everything that can be solved and divided in writing is done at this moment, and the rest is a division of accounts that cannot be recorded in writing.

For example, how to distribute so many prisoners, Liu Bei's Chinese army did not participate in the battle in the core position, so the distribution of prisoners is not very easy to calculate.

There are too many people who can be resettled in Nanyang, and these people are people's nationality, so they are naturally controlled by the local government, and they are naturally indirectly levied and taxed by Liu Bei.

The rest of the front army, the left army, the right army, and the Beifu soldiers are all to be expanded, only Tian Xin forced the Yanzhou army to surrender, and it was also incorporated into the new army, Tian Xin has already taken the largest point, and he has to participate in the follow-up sharing.

As compensation for the center, Tian Xin wanted to exert his influence and train an infantry of 10,000 people fighting in the mountains and forests for the possible outbreak of the Nanzhong Battlefield.

These more than 10,000 barbarians, if they are used in the Nanzhong battlefield, will be subordinate to the Prime Minister's Mansion or the Chinese Army and the Guard Army system in the future; If you can't use it, stay in Jingxiang to participate in the war against the Wu army.

It's not a loss, after the war, the Beifu soldiers may be able to expand to 100 battalions.
