Chapter 109: Cao's Army Retreats!
Woo~
Outside the city, in the world like Senluo, the sound of Mingjin suddenly sounded!
Mingjin means the end of the army!
The sound of gold and iron made the desperate Jingzhou soldiers show a shocked expression, and they immediately turned into ecstatic!
He even threw away the halberd in his hand!
Xinye, hold on?
Then I have food!
This was ecstatic news for Liu Bei's army, but it made Cao Jun on the opposite side show a complicated expression, mixed with unwillingness, anger, and grievance!
Why did General Cao collect his troops, this Xinye, but even the city gate was broken!
Just give one more hour, no, probably not so much, half an hour!
It only takes half an hour for this new field to fly the banner of its lord.
Why do I want to return?
The soldiers of the Cao army in the corridor looked at each other, their faces were full of confusion, and even more were unwilling!
It's so unwilling!
As long as you look back, under the city wall, there are all dense corpses, black armor, war halberds standing horizontally, with an indescribable tragedy.
These are the corpses of comrades, who gave their lives for this city, and then you said you were going to retreat?
"Brother Gao, why do you want to withdraw?" A man with a bloody face grabbed the sleeve of a tall man next to him and said fiercely.
"How the fuck do I know, dict, you think I'm going to be happy doing this?"
The person known as the second brother looked blankly at the eldest brother who usually stood up to the sky, but now his face was flushed, and suddenly understood his sadness!
Those lying on the ground are my comrades, and at the same time his comrades, the cold corpses, the soldiers he brought out!
Today, there are only a few dozen people left!
"It's all for Lao Tzu to withdraw, the military order is like a mountain, if any of the eight lambs is disobedient, don't blame Lao Tzu for military treatment!"
"Big Brother ......"
"Call me the team leader, there is no big brother here!"
"Team rate!" The second child wiped the tears on his face fiercely, his hands were stained with blood, wiped on his face, especially the tears, which suddenly constituted a strange scene!
"What about the corpses of the brethren?"
Oh, yes! The living can go, what should the dead brothers do, let them stay under this Xinye City, be eaten by jackals, and be burned to ashes by Liu Bei!
"Horse leather shroud, died on the battlefield, it is the honor of my generation, although the corpses of the brothers are here, but the souls are still following you and me, in the Taishan Mansion Jundong Heaven, they are bless us!"
Speaking of which, the eyes of this high-surnamed team leader are already red!
"Why are you stunned, withdraw to Lao Tzu, didn't you hear?"
"Whoa!"
Even if he was unwilling, after a bloody battle, Sergeant Cao Jun could only withdraw from Xinyecheng and watch the remains of his former comrades sleep in another country!
Upstairs in Xinye City, Zhuge Liang looked at Sergeant Cao Jun who was retreating like a tide with a smile on his face, and his heart was extremely happy.
Sure enough, as I expected!
But in a moment, this good mood was disturbed by a subordinate's report!
"What do you say? Anguo died in battle? ”
That Qu Lieutenant's body trembled a little, and he was not at all excited by the ecstatic soldiers on the city wall, he was very nervous, and even a little frightened!
"General Guan Xiao was wounded by a halberd in more than ten places, including three deaths and injuries, General Guan Xiao has already gone!"
Go?
Zhuge Liang suddenly lost his soul and became a little depressed, but this only lasted for less than a second, and was replaced by other emotions.
"Hahahaha! Hahahaha! Zhuge Liang laughed wildly!
That Qu Wei looked at Zhuge Liang who looked like this, and thought that this military division had become hysterical because of Guan Xing's death!
After all, that is General Guan's blood and bones, and General Guan, what a brave general, and he has a brotherly relationship with the lord, launching a surge is not something that you can bear as a new military division!
Of course, this is what Qu Wei thinks in his heart, but in Zhuge Liang's heart, he doesn't think like this.
He put Guan Xing on the front line to face the enemy, and naturally did not let Guan Xing die, in fact, Guan Xing had countless opportunities to evacuate, and even that Qu Lieutenant sent several waves of soldiers down, just to meet Guan Xing!
But he won't retreat!
Why?
Just for the brave name?
Definitely!
That is the trust of the lord, in other words, the cohesion of an army!
Someone is willing to die for this army, what kind of army is this, what kind of group is this?
Zhuge Liang laughed, and his laughter was a little hearty, so much so that Qu Wei felt a little worried.
If Guan Xing died, the responsibility is not on him, but if a military advisor is stupid because of this, then he really can't get out of it!
Therefore, he immediately stepped forward and asked tentatively: "Strategist, are you okay?"
Zhuge Liang's laughter stopped, and he glanced at the Qu Lieutenant with deep meaning, and suddenly said: "How many soldiers are left in the city!"
Qu Wei was stunned for a moment, estimated the number of people he had seen before, and immediately said to Zhuge Liang: "There are less than a thousand military divisions!"
Less than a thousand?
In other words, the army defending the city in Xinye has changed from the original 4,000 people to 1,000 people, and among them, I am afraid that half of them are seriously injured, which can be said to be a heavy loss!
But Zhuge Liang didn't regret it, and even had a smile on his face.
Our side lost 3,000 people just by defending the city, so Cao Jun, I'm afraid it is not this number!
More than 10,000 people, I'm afraid half of them are here, or even more!
As soon as the number of people is small, the follow-up attack will be much easier, and even because of the broken city and not entering, the psychological gap caused by it may make the current Cao army not even as good as a defeated army!
The fiasco is the best you can, and the defeat is justified, and you win and retreat, especially at such a big price, why?
When the army was about to be won, Cao Zhen was naturally as uncomfortable as eating a fly, but there was no way!
Cao Zhen looked at the mountains and forests in the distance, where there was already a fire!
In less than a quarter of an hour, Liu Bei's reinforcements will come over, and the leader of this reinforcement is very likely to be Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
Cao Zhen boasted that his courage was not bad, but he didn't feel that he was even an enemy of Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
And once Liu Bei's reinforcements arrive, even if our army occupies the city, there is no time to fortify, and the army of the long war meets the division of labor and rest, and the result can be imagined!
Retreat is a must!
Alas!
Cao Zhen hammered his chest violently!
It's a pity that just the last bit of time, even if it is an extra three quarters of an hour, Cao Zhen is confident to resist this Liu Bei's reinforcements!
It's a pity that time is running out!
Compared with the grievances of the soldiers, Cao Zhen's grievances will only outcome, and there will be no lack of anything!
Success is just a little bit of time!
Alas~
Cao Zhen raised his eyes and looked around, the chaotic team had lost its soul, and this army had lost its soul.
But they will not become weak, on the contrary, the mourning soldiers will win, and their sharp teeth have become sharper and sharper!
