Chapter 505: Wave the Army South!
These two reasons made Sun Quan finally have to press the anger and unwillingness in his heart and agree!
"Get out of the way, let them go, Cao Pi, if something happens to my little sister at that time, my Sun Quan will definitely want you to die a good death!" After Sun Quan reluctantly threatened, he had to get out of the way, obviously preparing to let Cao Pi leave.
In the face of Sun Quan's threat, Cao Pi just glanced at him and didn't say anything, which made Sun Quan feel aggrieved, wanting to say it, but he didn't know what to say.
After the Wu army gave way of the road, it was obviously very easy for the Wei army to withdraw from Xiquyang, and it was only after the figures of Cao Pi and the Wei army gradually disappeared into the darkness that Sun Quan's attention was returned to the fire in front of him.
At this time, the raging flames were beginning to spread to other granaries that had not yet been affected, and the scorching air was suffocating.
"Quick! Hurry up to extinguish the fire and rescue the grain and grass! Sun Quan ordered urgently.
About an hour later, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Wu army rescued about four layers of grain and grass baggage, and in the process, dozens of soldiers were burned by the flames.
"Second son, no, the fire is too big, and it is impossible to continue to rescue materials!" A military lieutenant Wu came to Sun Quan panting and reported.
Sun Quan looked at the raging flames in front of him, and scolded fiercely with a gloomy expression: "Damn, our army's losses this time are so heavy!" Cao Pi! If this revenge is not avenged, my grandson will not be a man! ”
When Sun Quan's disgust for Cao Pi rose to the extreme, on the surface, he turned his head to the captain who came to report and said, "Stop rescuing grain and grass." Do your best to stop the fire, don't let it spread! ”
"Yes!" This Wu military academy captain Hong Sheng agreed. Then he ran down.
Not to mention that the Wu army was doing its best to stop the spread of the flames, leading the army to leave Cao Pi in the middle of Xiquyang. Before he was about to arrive in Shouchun, he would have been scolding all the time, of course, back and forth was just a few sentences, such as Sun Shangxiang, who was a bastard or something, and put it down.
If it weren't for the fact that Sun Shangxiang really didn't let go, Sun Quan would probably attack desperately, and Cao Pi really wanted to make a move on this woman who had been chattering!
The first intersection between the two seems to have left a bad impression in the hearts of both parties.
"General. Let's take a break in the county warden's house! After entering Shouchun, a Wei military captain hugged his fist and said to Cao Pi, who had a tired look on his face.
Cao Pi looked at the blood and sweat on his body, nodded, and after looking forward to a few captains, he left immediately.
Arriving at the county guard's mansion, Zhang Liao, who had been waiting here for a long time, saw the picture after Cao Pi's battle, and hurriedly asked the soldiers to send a basin of water, and Cao Pi took the basin and poured it down on his head and face. Breathed a sigh of relief.
Cao Pi handed the basin to the Wei soldier beside him, looked down at the armor mottled with blood, frowned, and asked, "Where is the well?" ”
The Wei sergeant replied, "It's in the courtyard next to the lobby!" ”
Cao Pi who got this answer. After saying a word to Zhang Liao, he hurriedly motioned for the soldier to lead the way in front and left the lobby.
After Cao Pi entered the cross-hospital. Twisting his body uncomfortably, the strong smell of blood rushed straight to the end of his nose, making Cao Pi frown. I can't help but think of Sun Shangxiang in my mind, especially the picture of her scolding herself without stopping. made Cao Pi's face black for a moment, obviously, Cao Pi's mood became even worse.
A quarter of an hour later, Cao Pi came to the lobby wearing a Confucian shirt that he didn't know where to get, and at this moment, except for Zhang Liao, the rest of the Wei generals had already arrived.
Cao Pi sat down on the main seat with a refreshing face, glanced at everyone with anticipation in his eyes, and raised his voice: "You have been waiting for a long time, I will be fortunate not to disgrace my life, most of the grain stocks of the Wu army have been burned, even if there is a surplus, there is no way to let the Wu army hold on for long!" ”
As soon as Cao Pi's words came out, everyone who was doing it showed great joy on their faces, the Wu army's grain storage was burned, so it means that the Wu army will inevitably retreat in recent days, as for continuing to transport grain and grass from the rear of the Wu army, it is not impossible to do this, but it is too small!
After all, the Wu army is fighting on both sides, relying on one Yangzhou alone, and wants to supply the grain and grass of the two armies, which cannot be done by relying on Yangzhou at this time alone!
And the fact is just as the generals of the Wei army thought, in the next three days, the Wu army launched an attack, but the offensive can be said to be smaller than one day, and by the third day, it was completely thunder and rain!
Three days later, the Wu army retreated, leaving a large camp empty, but due to the strategy of Pang Commander's departure, by the time the Wei army found out, the Wu army had already retreated for a long time, and coupled with the criticality of Shouchun, Zhang Liao did not send troops to pursue.
The matter of Shouchun did not take long to reach Cao Cao's hands, and Cao Cao agreed with Zhang Liao's decision not to send troops to pursue, after all, there is no need to gamble on today's Great Wei, what Today's Great Wei really needs is to be steady step by step, so that it can slowly force the three southern kingdoms to death!
At this time, Cao Cao was convening the generals to discuss the matter, and after telling the battle situation in Shouchun, Cao Cao thought for a while, and then ordered: "Zixiao, you will send a message to Daliang later, and let Wen Ruo raise another batch of grain and grass for me and transport it to Nanyang!" ”
"The last general obeys!" Cao Ren clenched his fists and promised.
After discussing with the generals, Cao Cao came to the place where the prisoners of the Jing Han Army were held by Cao Ren, Zhao Yun, Ma Chao and other generals, looking at the soldiers of the Jing Han Army who were covered in blood, trembling, and with fear and anxiety in their eyes, Cao Cao couldn't help but sigh a little, this matter is in troubled times, if it is peaceful and prosperous, many of these people may live in peace and old age, not like now.
In the time when the grain and grass had not yet arrived, the Cao army in Nanyang made a big move, and due to the defeat of the Jing Han army, the whole territory of Shangyong once again became the ruling land of Wei!
Ten days later, another batch of grain and grass was transported to Nanyang, that is, today, Cao Cao ordered Cao Ren to lead an army of 50,000 to attack Jiangxia, and he personally led an army of 80,000 to the south, and before evening, the army arrived at the ferry on the bank of the Yangtze River.
Looking at the prosperous military appearance of the Wei army on the other side of the Long River, these Jing Han soldiers who were on standby couldn't help but feel fear, and the leading general Wen Ping frowned, and the palm holding the hilt of the sword turned white for a while.
