Chapter 109 Cao Jun is defeated!
Wow~
Outside the city, in the world like the Senluo Field, the sound of gold suddenly sounded!
The sound of gold means withdrawing the army!
The sound of gold and iron made the desperate Jingzhou soldiers look shocked, and then turned into ecstasy!
Even the halberd in his hand was thrown away!
Shinno, guarded?
Then I have my food too!
This was ecstatic news for Liu Bei's front army, but it made the Cao army on the opposite side show a complicated expression, mixed with reluctance, anger, and frustration!
Why did General Cao withdraw his troops? Xinye even broke the city gate!
Just give another hour, no, maybe not so much, half an hour!
In just half an hour, Xinye will float his lord's flag.
Why withdraw?
The Cao army soldiers in the corridor looked at each other, their faces full of confusion, and more were unwilling to give up!
Too unwilling to give up!
As long as you look back, under the city walls, there are dense corpses, black armor and war halberds standing horizontally, with an indescribable tragic tyranny.
These are all the corpses of their comrades. They gave their lives for this city, and then you said you wanted to retreat?
"Brother Gao, why should I withdraw?" A man with blood on his face grabbed the sleeve of a tall man next to him and said fiercely.
"How did I know, dick, you think I'd be happy to do this?"
The man who was called the second child looked at the team leader who was usually upright but now had a flushed face and suddenly understood his sadness!
Those who lie on the ground were my comrades and his comrades. The cold corpses were soldiers he brought out!
Now, there are only a few dozen people left!
"I will withdraw all of them. The military orders are like a mountain. If anyone is disobedient, don't blame me for the military law for handling it!"
"Brother..."
"Call me as the team rate, there is no big brother here!"
"Team leader!" The second brother wiped the tears on his face hard. His hands were stained with blood and smeared on his face, especially when he was still crying, which immediately formed a strange scene!
"What should I do if the corpses of the brothers?"
Yes! If the living people can leave, what should the dead brothers do? Let them stay in this Xinye City, be eaten by jackals, and burned to ashes by Liu Bei!
"It is our honor to wrap the body of horses and die in the battlefield. Although the corpses of our brothers are here, their souls are still closely followed by you and me. In the cave heaven of Mount Tai, they are blessing us!"
Speaking of this, the team leader of the Gao team has turned red!
"Why are you standing there? Let me withdraw, didn't you hear it?"
"Here!"
Even if he was unwilling to give up, the Cao army soldiers who had fought passionately could only withdraw from Shinyecheng and watched the remains of the former comrades sleep in a foreign land!
On the Xinye City Tower, Zhuge Liang looked at the Cao army soldiers who were retreating like a tide with a smile on his face, and his heart was extremely happy.
Sure enough, it wasn't as expected!
But in a moment, this kind of good mood was completely damaged by a subordinate's report!
"What did you say? An Guo died in battle?"
The Qu Wei's body was a little trembling, not at all excited by the ecstatic soldiers on the city wall. He was very nervous and even a little scared!
"General Guan Xiao was injured more than ten times, including three deaths and injuries. General Guan Xiao was gone!"
Go?
Zhuge Liang suddenly became a little lost, but this lasted for less than a second and was replaced by other emotions.
"Hahahaha! Hahaha!" Zhuge Liang laughed wildly!
Looking at Zhuge Liang like this, Qu Wei thought that the military advisor was already hysterical because of Guan Xing's death!
After all, that is General Guan’s blood. What a brave general, General Guan is, and he has brotherly feelings for his lord. He is not something you can bear as a new military advisor!
Of course, this is what Qu Wei thought in his heart, but in Zhuge Liang's heart, this is not what he thought.
He put Guan Xing on the front line to fight the enemy, so naturally he did not let Guan Xing die. In fact, Guan Xing had countless opportunities to evacuate, and even Qu Wei sent several waves of troops to support Guan Xing!
But he did not retreat!
Why?
Just for the reputation of courage?
No!
That is trust in 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 smiled, his smile was a little refreshing, which made Qu Wei feel a little worried.
Guan Xing died, but the responsibility was not on him, but if a military advisor was stupid because of this, he would really be inseparable from it!
So he immediately stepped forward and asked tentatively: "Military advisor, are you safe?"
Zhuge Liang's laughter stopped, he glanced at the Qu Wei with deep meaning, and suddenly said, "How many soldiers are left in the city!"
Qu Wei was stunned, estimated the number of people he had seen before, and immediately said to Zhuge Liang: "Report to military advisors, there are less than a thousand!"
Less than a thousand people?
In other words, the Shinno defending the city army has changed from the original 4,000 to one thousand people. Among them, half of them are seriously injured, and it can be said that they have suffered heavy losses!
But Zhuge Liang did not feel regretful, and even had a smile on his face.
We lost 3,000 people just by defending the city, so Cao's army probably won't be the same number!
More than 10,000 people may have been sold out half of them here, or even more!
With a small number of people, subsequent attacks will be much easier. Even the psychological gap caused by breaking the city will probably make the current Cao army worse than a defeated army!
A crushing defeat is to try your best to achieve the best. There is a reason to lose, but you win and retreat, especially if you pay such a great price. Why?
When the army was about to win, Cao Zhen naturally felt as uncomfortable as if he had eaten a fly, but there was nothing he could do!
Cao Zhen looked at the mountains and forests in the distance, where there was already a fire shining!
Within a quarter of an hour, Liu Bei's reinforcements would come, and the leader of this reinforcements was most likely Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
Cao Zhen claimed that he was not bad at bravery, but he did not feel that he could even rival Guan Yu and Zhang Fei!
Once Liu Bei’s reinforcements arrive, even if our army occupys the city, there is no time to set up defenses. The long-term battle army meets the working and resting troops, and the result can be imagined!
Retreat is a must!
well!
Cao Zhen thrashed his chest hard!
Unfortunately, it was only a little short of time. Even if it was so three quarters of an hour, Cao Zhen was confident of resisting Liu Bei’s reinforcements!
Unfortunately, time is endless!
Compared with the soldiers' aggrievance, Cao Zhen's aggrievance will only surpass it, and there will be no shortage!
Success and fame are just a little short of time!
Alas~
Cao Zhen looked around and saw that the chaotic team had lost their souls, and the army had lost their souls.
Chapter completed!
