Chapter 355: Evacuation

Cai Mao was cautious and avoided the annihilation by mistake. Zhao Yun and other famous generals each led the army to chase and kill for thirty miles, and then retreated.

The generals returned to the Taishou Mansion in high spirits, and Lu Yao had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Lu Yao, all the generals shouted in unison, stood on both sides, and reported the results of the battle.

It was an absolute victory. The four-way army in Jingzhou totaled 100,000 people, and only more than 50,000 escaped in the end. In total, more than 10,000 casualties and more than 30,000 were captured. It's a pity that only Cai Mao and the three Taishou escaped, and they couldn't get the full credit.

Although there are small flaws, the flaws are not hidden, and all the generals are very satisfied with this result. Ma Chao was even more enthusiastic to go out to ask for battle, willing to lead the army to smash Huanglong, take Xiangyang, the seat of Jingzhou, and capture Liu Biao and hand it over to Lu Yao.

At this challenge, Zhao Yun and other generals couldn't sit still, and asked for battle one after another. Each of them made a military order, vowing to take advantage of this great victory to take Wuling and other four counties, and then swept the entire Jingzhou.

And for good reason. I have never lost with the lord, but I haven't been able to fight a few battles from beginning to end, and these generals are mascots at all. It's rare to have such an opportunity, and it was mentioned by Xiliang Ma Chao, who doesn't belong to the Xanadu Army sequence, everyone has to keep up with it, so as to show that they are not mascots.

This can make Cheng Pu and Huang Gai, the two veterans, so happy that they couldn't close their mouths for a long time.

King Zhuya's feudal kingdom is in Zhuya Prefecture, and the territory he has laid now naturally belongs to the Sun family. Jingzhou is originally a land of four rushes, and the benefits of occupying Jingzhou are self-evident. As long as Jiangdong is taken again, the Sun family will become the biggest prince in the world.

"The last general will definitely show the lord, and he is willing to help the prince and snow this hatred." Cheng Pu rushed out to make a promise, and by the way found a very reasonable excuse.

Zhou Yu listened and smiled bitterly in his heart. At present, only he knows Lu Yao's next plan. There was no further intention to take advantage of the victory to occupy Jingzhou at all, but he was in a hurry to withdraw and avoid a death fight with Liu Biao in Jingzhou. It's a pity that these words can't come out of his mouth, so as not to cause dissatisfaction among the two veterans, Cheng Pu and Huang Gai.

"I have made up my mind, rest for three days, and move to Yuzhang immediately." Lu Yao faced the generals of the Battle Spirit, but poured a basin of cold water on his head.

"The prince wants to abandon Changsha?" Cheng Pu was in a hurry.

At the beginning, Sun Jian was reluctant to stay in Changsha and turned to Jiangdong, just because Liu Biao was already doing something and did not want to face the danger of being watched by the counties of Jingzhou. Now that the soldiers and horses of the four counties of Jingzhou were defeated in a war, with Liu Biao's weak character, Changsha can naturally be saved. Where is he willing to give up Changsha.

"General Cheng wants to stay in Changsha?" Lu Yao didn't answer the rhetorical question.

Cheng Pu was speechless for a moment, and closed his mouth with a dry smile.

Lu Yao didn't care. If Cai Mao was greedy and fell into the trap and wiped out all the soldiers and horses of the four counties of Jingzhou, he could keep Changsha. However, he failed to achieve the full success, and half of the 100,000 Jingzhou troops fled. This loss can't scare Liu Biao at all.

The weapon of the Divine Fire Crow has been exposed, and it has lost its surprising winning effect. He had already been besieged once, and he didn't want to be besieged again. After all, this is Jingzhou, Liu Biao's territory. It's okay to repel once, a steady stream of attackers, and he doesn't dare to gamble unless he gets 1.8 million soldiers and horses.

All his belongings are basically in Changsha, and he definitely doesn't want to take such a risk. Once back before liberation, the consequences are terrible. He simply couldn't afford to lose it.

"The last general is willing to lead the army to stay in Changsha City." Huang Gai came out of the ranks, and he looked like he was righteous.

Lu Yao glanced at Huang Gai and was speechless.

Promising to give Changsha City to Cangyue is secondary, mainly because he believes in flashing when he gets benefits. Before Liu Biao sent troops to invade Changsha, it was nothing more than the influence of Jingxiang celebrities, and he had to do it as a last resort. However, the soldiers and horses of the four counties were defeated, and this was not a last resort, but a battle for face. If Changsha County is not taken, it will inevitably affect Liu Biao's status in Jingzhou.

At present, it is obvious that Liu Biao's full revenge will be aroused, and continuing to occupy Changsha will outweigh the losses. promised to send out Changsha City, just to be able to pull Cangyue into the water and erect one more target to attract Liu Biao's firepower. But now a yellow cover jumped out of the two stunned.

"General Huang, Gong Jin thinks Changsha City can be abandoned." Zhou Yu suddenly spoke up at this time, supporting Lu Yao's proposal.

"Huangkou child, how dare you talk about it? A certain was ordered by the lord to stay in Changsha, and Liu Biao of Jingzhou was not allowed to rob it. Huang Gai glared angrily, and almost pointed at Zhou Yu's nose and scolded.

"This is your family matter, and it is inconvenient for this king to stay." Lu Yao got up and smiled indifferently, and then turned to Zhao Yun and the other generals: "Hurry up and prepare, move to Yuzhang in three days, and those who violate the order will be beheaded." ”

"The last will be ordered." All the generals snorted in unison, and their interest was obviously not high.

When Lu Yao and the generals left, only the Sun family was left, Huang Gai didn't know how to press it, grabbed Zhou Yu with his hand, and shouted: "If you don't give an explanation, someone will ask you for the crime." ”

Zhou Yu smiled bitterly and said, "Old General Huang, can't you still see that this city is in danger?" ”

"What do you mean by that?" Cheng Pu hurriedly drank the yellow cover and asked urgently.

Huang Gai snorted heavily, let go of Zhou Yu, and retreated to the side to sulk. He was ordered to stay in Changsha and was really reluctant to give up. With the current strength of the Sun family, it is good to occupy one more county.

Zhou Yu sighed lightly: "It is true that the soldiers and horses of the four counties were defeated in this battle, but it also angered Liu Biao. If the Jingzhou army is annihilated in one battle, Changsha City can be protected. Now that the whole county of Changsha is under Liu Biao, the four gates of this city are destroyed, how can they survive the comeback of the Jingzhou army? After a pause, he smiled bitterly and said: "If this battle is not for the inhumans to defect, how can we win this big victory." When the Jingzhou army comes back, there is neither the help of the prince nor the stranger, how can they hold Changsha City? Even if you can ensure that Changsha City is not lost, how many soldiers and horses do you need to send from the lord? ”

Cheng Pu was thoughtful, and finally let out a long sigh helplessly.

Sun Jian's troops sent to Jiangdong relied on the 200,000 soldiers and horses sent by Lu Yao, which was able to occupy Yuzhang in a short period of time. If you want to keep Changsha City, you have to send troops and horses. One in and one out, where are there still many soldiers and horses to fight Jiangdong.

"The two old generals, if they are constantly interrupted, they will suffer from it." Zhou Yu persuaded hard.

Cheng Pu nodded helplessly and turned his head to look at Huang Gai. The latter looked unwilling, and finally stepped forward and hugged his fist: "Fang Cai has offended a lot, Gongjin should not take it to heart." If he is unwilling, he can be fined forty rods to vent his anger. ”

"Gongjin doesn't dare." Zhou Yu also bowed, shook his head with a wry smile: "I also ask the two old generals to prepare quickly, and persuade the people to move to Yuzhang as much as possible." ”

"Order."

……

The ruins of the four gates of Changsha City have been cleaned up. Countless frightened people poured out of the city gate with their families and mouths, and moved to Yuzhang under the escort of 20,000 soldiers and horses.

Cangyue saw the collective relocation of the people in Changsha City from a distance, and a meaningful smile hung on the corner of her mouth. He was not surprised that Lu Yao would move ordinary NPCs.

People are the foundation.

No matter what kind of talent you are, you still have to rely on a huge population base in the end. At the beginning, Lu Yao spent a great deal of money to teleport away 200,000 ordinary NPCs, and then moved 300,000 ordinary NPCs from thousands of miles away, and now it is not surprising that he wants to move away the people of Changsha.

At this time, a confidant muttered angrily: "It's still a great god, and this trivial benefit should also be taken up." ”

Cang Yue glanced at it and said with a faint smile: "I don't know who takes advantage of whom." ”
