Chapter 184 Results
Since Guan Yu and Zhang Fei withdrew from Jingzhou, Sun Quan and Cao Cao fought a battle for the ownership of Jingzhou.

In the end, with the entire Yangtze River backed, the Jiangdong Army, which was able to quickly support the navy, took the initiative.
Although Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu and others to send reinforcements twice, the result was only to defend Fancheng, and the territory of Jingzhou that originally belonged to Liu Bei belonged to Sun Quan!
Jingzhou City, Gong'an, and Nanjun all belonged to Sun Quan, and most of Jingzhou belonged to Jiangdong. Only Nanyang Fancheng Sun Quan remained untouched, and he didn't want to start a complete war with Cao Cao.

In the battle between Sun Cao and Cao Ren, Cao Ren in Cao Cao's army faced Gan Ning, and Xu Chu faced Tai Shici. After a big battle, the two sides were tied.

At this time, Cao Cao discovered that the so-called Jiangdong Army was only able to see the navy army, and other unsightly claims were actually wrong!

Tai Shici's fighting power is good, and Gan Ning is not weak. Both Xu Chu and Cao Ren fought, but they were not defeated. The news just reached Cao Cao's ears. Go south to Jingzhou, otherwise Jingzhou might not be able to get it back!
Sun Zhongmou is not good at fighting, but he really has a way of employing people. It's not that Jingzhou can't take it, but it's too weak.

He finally built a fortified Fancheng. Even if he pushed the border fifty miles or even a hundred miles forward, the overall strength would not be improved much at all. It was really more difficult to choose the form than when he was in Hanzhong. The original Hanzhong, If you win but can't win, if you stay, you will continue to lose troops and lose generals.

And the form of Jingzhou is the same. After he won Jingzhou, he was only defeated in Chibi for a while, and the whole Jingzhou was quickly lost. For Jingzhou, he is a dragon who has crossed the river. He has no popular support or foundation here. It is not easy to get it, and it is even more difficult to keep it.

The only easy thing is probably to lose Jingzhou, if you make a wrong move, you will lose it.

It's not that he can't win Jingzhou, but after he wins Jingzhou, he needs to spend a lot of energy on dredging and managing Jingzhou, and he still has to invest a lot of resources here, which are already much larger than his income!

And in the short term, there will be no gains at all!
This has to make Cao Cao think twice!

If you can capture Jingzhou at the minimum cost, that would be the best, but if you can't capture it, then just keep the original territory!Anyway, their initial purpose was just to attack Liu Bei's forces first, and work with Sun Quan to weaken Liu Bei's forces!
Now that the goal has been achieved, if you fight to the death with Sun Quan, you will deviate from the original intention!
"It's really not possible, let Xu Chu come back!" Cao Cao thought for a while!
If Xu Chu retreated, it would mean that Cao Cao had given up Jingzhou. If Sun Quan was sensible, he would not have laid down heavy troops here too!
The two sides will return to a confrontation stage!
After calculating the gains and losses of both parties, Cao Cao found that he had actually suffered a heavy loss this time. He had lost a lot of soldiers and horses, and Xu Huang also lost an arm. It can be said that the party with the biggest losses among the three parties!
And Sun Quan came out with all his elite troops. Although he was defeated this time and lost a lot of soldiers and horses, none of his generals were harmed!

Compared with Liu Bei, it can be said that the loss was very small. Liu Bei lost all the territory in Jingzhou and attacked Fancheng. The soldiers and horses suffered heavy losses, and Guan Yu was injured.It can be said that the loss is the smallest among the three parties!
Besides the gains from the three parties, Cao Cao achieved his goal and successfully weakened Liu Bei's power, whose morale reached its peak after the Battle of Hanzhong.

Sun Quan got the Jingzhou he dreamed of, which proved that he really has the strength to be the third pole in the world, and he is also capable!
Liu Bei didn't seem to get it, he lost his territory, lost a powerful army, and even a commander in the army was hidden by him!

But in general, after this joint attack by Cao Cao and Sun Quan, although Liu Bei's strength was damaged, he was far from being injured!

Everyone was a little apprehensive about his next military strategy, although he was not afraid!But being targeted is also very troublesome!
Even if it is possible to get assistance from the other party, if it is not the kind of battle that may affect the three-legged alliance, they will hardly take action. Instead, they will sit on the mountain and watch the fight. Only when one party is in great danger and suffers heavy losses will they take action. Thinking of taking action!
If one side wants to win, help the other side; if one side wants to lose, then join this side and help this side. This situation was immediately understood by Liu Bei, Sun Quan and Cao Cao!
"Tai Shici's martial arts is really so much better than before?" In Xuchang Wei Wang's mansion, Xu Chu was counting on Cao Cao. Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu to come back, and Xu Chu came back almost non-stop!
After returning, he did not return home, so he immediately went to the mansion where King Wei was located and reported the situation to Cao Cao!
"I thought he was defeated by Zhang Fei, and he was already vulnerable. I didn't expect this person to become more and more courageous. When he fought me, he didn't lose the wind at all, and he didn't have the slightest reluctance. It seems that after a period of concentration Cultivation has made him clear-headed, and he will no longer be discouraged by a little thing and become depressed! Instead, he has gained a kind of resilience!" Xu Chu was very surprised when he thought of the Jiangdong fierce general who fought against him.

Is there anyone in the Jiangdong Army who can still fight without water ships?

It turns out there is!
On the other side, the battle between Cao Ren and Gan Ning does not belong to the battle between Tai Shici and Xu Chu. Cao Ren is ruthless, while Gan Ning is completely brave and fearless. A burning fire, when the two meet, it becomes a crazy fire, burning continuously!Constantly evaporating!
In this way, many generals in the Jiangdong Army did not step forward to help. Once these people stepped forward to help, Cao Ren and Xu Chu worried that they would have no choice but to retreat!

When Cao Cao heard what Xu Chu said, he was very surprised. He could accept the lack of high-end force, and he did not mobilize so many generals this time. After all, everyone had to guard the important places!
If there are too many soldiers and horses called in one place, it must be affected to a certain extent!

I am a little glad that I made the decision to let Xu Chu lead some people back, and after Cao Cao ordered Xu Chu to leave, the army led by Lu Meng was also busy recruiting wealthy families everywhere, rectifying the defense of Jingzhou, and hurriedly sent some troops to the city. Withdrawing some, the long-term confrontation can only make them consume a lot of food and grass, which is a huge consumption!
Fortunately, Guan Yu and Zhang Fei didn't do too much when they left. They emptied the treasury directly, which made the work of Lu Meng and others go smoothly!

With the progress of the aftermath, this long-lasting war in Jingzhou, which expanded to Japan, finally ended with Liu Bei evacuating Jingzhou, Cao Cao retreating, and Sun Quan getting most of Jingzhou's land!
