The Three Kingdoms

"of course!"

Cao Zhang and Zhang Heng looked at each other and nodded.

Zhang Heng's face was dignified, and he looked at a tent rising from the ground in the distance, as well as the blurred figures of the Wu army officers and soldiers walking back and forth densely, and said in a deep voice: "The Wu army is too strong, they will definitely not be so easy. Let it go, it is clear that we will eat our Northern Wolf Guard!"

"Eat the Northern Wolf Guards, they have too much appetite!"

Cao Zhang sneered: "Northern Wolf Guards are now the number one main force in our Great Wei Dynasty. With them alone, can they eat it?"

With the strength of the northern wolf guards, they can't win, can't they break through? Wu Jun wants to besiege and kill them, unless they are forced into a desperate situation, it will be easier said than done.

"Don't take it lightly!"

Jushou was not as confident as Cao Zhang. They made too many mistakes in this battle. Now that the situation has reversed, he could not predict the result. Instead, he said with a bitter face: "Now the position of the handover has been completely reversed. Wu Jun's current strength, Maybe they really have the ability to eat us!"

"Why do I feel that the battle in Liangzhou is getting more and more chaotic, and I don't know what's going on with General Sima?"

Cao Zhang gritted his teeth, feeling uneasy in his heart.

"It is estimated that the situation is not good!"

Zhang Hengdao: "Wu's army came prepared, but our ambush has become their trap. This time, not to mention keeping Liangzhou, whether they can keep the main force and retreat is a big problem!"

"Don't talk about this now. After you set up your defenses, go immediately to appease the soldiers. Last night there were heavy casualties, at least [-] soldiers. The soldiers' morale is bound to be turbulent. The bloody battle will follow. You must appease the emotions of the soldiers!"

Jushou sighed, turned and left the city wall: "I'll go meet General Ma Chao immediately to discuss the next strategy!"

After speaking, he took hundreds of guards and rode his horse towards Beicheng.

When Jushou returned to the Beicheng military camp, the fighting in the north had already ceased. The Xianbei army camped three miles outside the northern suburbs, basically occupying the Wei army's camp and opposing the Wei army at the city gate.

When Jushou walked into the camp, he also felt the tense atmosphere inside and outside the barracks, and even the aura of the sentry post at the gate became dignified.

"General Ma!"

Jushou walked into the camp of the Chinese army. There was only Ma Chao in the big tent. His burly body stood in front of a topographic map hung on a screen. He looked at the topographic map with fascination.

"Army Jushou is back!" Hearing this, Ma Chao came back to his senses, turned his head, looked at him, and asked, "How is the situation in Nancheng?"

"Wu Jun has temporarily retreated!"

"Have you seen clearly which part of the Wu army is?" Ma Chao asked impatiently, narrowing his eyes slightly.

He is not afraid of having an opponent, but he is afraid that he doesn't even know who the opponent is.

"Central Legion!"

"Are you sure?" Ma Chao's pupils shrank when he heard this.

"From their scale, from their battle flags, they are almost inseparable!" Ju Shou said.

"As far as I know, the Central Army Corps has been severely defeated by Guo Taiwei in the battle in Runan. They are currently recuperating in Jinling City. It seems that the Wu army has transported troops northward without concealing the truth. How many of them have come?" Ma Chao's face was dignified, asked.

"Looking at their size, I guess even if the entire army didn't come out, [-]% of the army should have been transported to Xiliang!" Ju Shou replied: "In the final analysis last night, they should be just trying to find out. If there is a real strong attack, we will It may not be able to bear it!"

"No wonder they have such a large army. While attacking you head-on, they can spare tens of thousands of elite cavalry to surprise the Longshan barracks and respond to the withdrawal of their Wu army on Longshan. It turned out that they pulled the Central Army away!"

Ma Chao's face was indifferent, and there was a hint of gloom in his eyes: "We lost this battle. We lost in intelligence. We foolishly walked into the trap they set up. We didn't have any intentions. How could we be undefeated!"

"General, Longshan side?"

Jushou was a little surprised.

"Wu Jun, who was besieged on Longshan, has already protruded!"

Ma Chao said indifferently: "There is an elite team at the foot of the mountain to meet them and defeat the Xiliang iron cavalry. We have not achieved much results. After so many days of siege for nothing, we would have wiped them out first even if we paid a certain price! "

"So, we are the ones who are surrounded by Wu Jun from north to south in Jieting?" Ju Shou looked at the map on the screen, and his face sank.

"you are right!"

Ma Chao pointed to the map: "To the north is the Xianbei Army, which is fierce and powerful, and to the south is the Central Army, known as the First Army of the Wu Army. If you add their Ninth Army, I preliminarily estimate that their strength is close to 20. Already!"

"The street pavilion is inherently safe to defend. With just this little city wall, the Wu army can pave it directly in just a day or two. There is no need to build siege equipment at all, and the Wu army's strength is far ahead of ours. This battle..." Jushou's pupils changed color.

"We haven't lost yet!"

Ma Chao didn't feel the slightest bit of frustration, he sneered: "I still have the main force of the Northern Wolf Guards, and I also have the Xiliang iron cavalry as sharp arrows. If you want to break out, it's not difficult. I'm more concerned about Sima Yi now!"

"The general thinks that Sima Yi's troops were also besieged and killed by the Wu army?"

"Not necessarily, but I guess I've fallen for it. I can't leave her behind. I plan to spend five days in Jieting!" Ma Chao said, "Let's see if he can join us!"

"What if not?"

"Five days later, break out to the east and return to Guanzhong!"

Ma Chao said decisively: "Save your strength!"

------------------

Outside the city, Wu Jun set up camp.

"Do you know why this commander asked you to withdraw troops?"

Although Ju Yi rescued the Ninth Army, there was no trace of joy at this moment, his face was gloomy, his breath was cold, and he stared coldly at the commanders of the second, third, fourth and third armies under his command, with a hint of anger in his expression .

"Commander, I'm sorry, we were too impulsive!"

Han Gang, Huang Bing, and Zu Dong stood in front of Ju Yi, their faces were ashamed, they lowered their heads, and said in a low voice.

"impulse?"

Ju Yi's eyes were like cold blades, and he swept across the faces of the three of them. His icy breath erupted in vain, as if trying to freeze the entire tent, and he said coldly, "You guys are not impulsive, this is a flagrant disobedience of military orders. Han Gang disobeyed!" Twice military orders, unwillingness to retreat, Huang Bing disobeyed once, Zu Dong disobeyed once, are you all doing well? Or do you think that this commander dare not behead you and the others, so as to rectify the military law!"

"We know we are wrong, please punish the commander!"

The three of them trembled and quickly bowed their heads and knelt down.

"Lu Xun!"

"exist!"

"Take the three of them down, beat each of them with [-] army sticks, and then put me in confinement and reflect on it. Without the order of the commander, they are not allowed to be released!"

"Yes!"

Lu Xun led the supervising soldiers to pull the three of them down.
