So Li Tong wanted to know where the Liangzhou army was going back in the end, so he asked his side to explore the matter carefully. As for the others, he also knew that the other side had already set up camp, so they could not come back, at least there was no big problem for the time being. And they were only a few thousand people left, and they really couldn't make a big difference. You see, it was before, Li Tong did, because the Liangzhou army did not leave, but he was really completely relieved after leaving this Liangzhou army. However, after the Liangzhou army left, he was really completely fine.

Don't worry, that's it. When will he be nervous again, he can only wait until the Liangzhou army makes a comeback. That's when it's time to make him feel more stressed again. That's it. But now, indeed, it's not like this, Li Tong is completely relieved. At least he knows, and he knows very well that in the short time, their Liangzhou army will not be

It will come. It will take at least more than a month, which is what Li Tong believes. He thinks Ma Chao should lead his troops back to Wancheng first, and then back to Chang'an. Because he is not in a hurry to go back to Chang'an now, it is actually a must. If he is Ma Chao, he must do this. Of course, how Ma Chao chooses, he will definitely not be able to do it himself.

However, it would be better to say that he would return to Wancheng first, and returning to Wancheng would be more beneficial to their Liangzhou army, right? But no matter where he went, Li Tong felt that he should know. After all, he paid great attention to the Liangzhou army because it was his strong enemy and strong enemy, so it would be impossible not to pay attention to it. Moreover, they would not let themselves wait too long and they would definitely make a comeback, so they should be like this. Of course, it would be best if they didn't come to Nanyang, but is this possible?

So Li Tong would not say that he would put all his confidence on such things. Rather than saying that, it would be better to train troops or something. He would try to attack the other side again. If he didn't say that he would repel them, he would at least be able to hold back the Liangzhou army. Or, conscripting some soldiers in Jiyang is very useful. Don't think that Li Tong would not say that he would go directly to his lord to ask for reinforcements,

But he may not have done so when he recruits locally. If there is no more, but there is no big problem here after all. It is true that Li Tong has been operating here with the Yanzhou army for so many years, and he has been like Pang De, and has not recruited troops in Nanyang. After all, everyone knows that Nanyang is the most severely damaged by the Yellow Turban Rebellion.

It's one of the counties, and it's definitely in front, because I said before that there are many people in Nanyang, so there are many people participating in the Yellow Turbans. What is the Yellow Turban Army? To put it bluntly, it's just a group of ordinary people who can't eat, the peasant army, but they are just religious. Isn't that just that? Whether it's Pang De or Li Tong, they really don't want to recruit soldiers, otherwise there have been no one before. Not to mention that the Yanzhou army lacks money and grain, but Pang De doesn't have it either.

It is said that recruitment is a problem, and they don’t want to. But if it is like this now, there is no better way, it is really helpless. If there is no conscription, there is a shortage of troops in this place, because after experiencing such a war... and the Yanzhou Army was led by Li Tong, not by Xu Huang and the others, although it did not suffer as much as the Liangzhou Army,

But because he knew that the Liangzhou army would still make a comeback, Li Tong could not not go to recruit soldiers. As for money, grain, materials, etc., he really did not lack money, although the Yanzhou army only occupied half of it and almost arrived, their place was really not short of money, at least it was still sufficient. It was indeed no problem to recruit 20,000 troops. However, the 20,000 recruits were only recruits, and this was the problem, so compared with this,

It's a bad thing. The Liangzhou army left completely. They returned to Wancheng first according to their lord's wishes. Ma Chao still thought so, just rest in Wancheng for two days, and then he and Guo Jia and the others could go back. Indeed, there were not many soldiers following him, because almost everyone had to stay in Wancheng, and Ma Chao asked his personal guards to follow him and others back. As for safety issues, it was really no big deal. There was no combination of these four people in the world.

Anyone who is blind in the eyes dares to rob them. As for the Yanzhou army, it is even more impossible. Ma Chao knew that Li Tong would not move troops. Seeing that he left, they didn't chase him, which means that it means the problem. What's more, there are hundreds of personal guards who have to follow them, so Ma Chao and the others are not worried at all. If there is any accident, it's a good thing. Cui An still feels that the previous war has not happened.

Let me have fun, so... the others, namely Pang De and Gan Ning, they all think it's good. At least they fight Xiahou Yuan and Xu Huang in those days, and they really feel it's okay. That is, Ma Dai, like Cui An, no one meets him, so they have to lead troops to fight, so they have more ideas, while Ma Chao and Guo Jia have no

What is the idea? After all, one is the lord, and it is impossible to say that he is holding his weapons to fight with the enemy. If that is the case, can his subordinates let him go? Not to mention Guo Jia, even if a scholar is "unable to tie a chicken", so it is true that what he thinks about participating in the war? It is not a military general, so there is still no big problem to ask Guo Jia if he wants something. Even if he is just asking him to lead troops as the commander, it is not impossible, but he is not able to lead troops.

Fighting in front of the two armies, this is really gone. After all, he is just a literati and a strategist. How many of them can be like Li Hui, Man Chong and Yu Fan? Isn't that a few? So those who are rare, so don't expect too much. At least Guo Jia must not do it, and others can't do it either. Just say Xun You, no, too.

Like. Ma Chao led his troops back to Wancheng, and Li Hui brought his troops out of the city for several miles to welcome his lord. This does not depend on his own situation. No matter how many troops are left in the Liangzhou army, no matter how many troops are left, his lord is back, as a subordinate, it is impossible for you to go out of the city to welcome him. If you don’t welcome him, are you still waiting for your lord to come into the city and come to report to you about the previous war? That’s not

Is it kidding? So Li Hui couldn't go out of the city to greet him. After seeing everyone, Li Hui bowed to Ma Chao. Ma Chao smiled, and then took everyone back to Wancheng. He also knew that Li Hui could not come out, but it was difficult for him to come out so far to greet him. Ma Chao smiled on the surface, but he was really amused and crying. He knew that he was the one who came down to welcome his lord. Those who didn't know thought that he had returned in triumph. But if he won, it would definitely not be considered a big victory.

It's just that, the people are about to die, so... everyone went to the living room of the prefect's mansion. As for the thousands of soldiers on their side, there are naturally places they go to. After everyone sat down in the living room, Ma Chao began to talk about the previous war, mainly for Li Hui. After all, no one here except him, didn't know, so it was mainly for him.

Li Hui listened carefully. For him, he was the only one in the room who didn't know the specific war. Although he knew the final situation and he was sure that his side won, there were still a few thousand people left to come back? So don't you think about siegeing the city. Isn't your lord bringing troops back now? Therefore, Li Hui also knew that if you were a while, your side would not easily move troops. At least you had to conscript some soldiers here in Nanyang. How much has your side lost? That's nearly 100,000 people.

Ah. After that, Ma Chao continued to say it, but it was just a simple statement, not that detailed, and he also knew that for Li Hui, it was not very useful to be so detailed. As long as it was more specific than what Tan Ma said, it would be enough. Otherwise, from the first day of the war, it would be impossible to finish it even if it was three days and three nights. Isn't that the same thing? In the end, Ma Chao finally finished it. Of course, Li Hui didn't think so, and he was still a little unsatisfied, even if he wasn't that.

The dominant one, but how to say it, after all, Cao Cao attaches great importance to Nanyang, otherwise he would not have sent more than 90,000 troops directly. It was their regular Yanzhou army, so he sent more than 90,000. If other civilians were added, it would have been more than 100,000. Therefore, Cao Cao's troops invested in Nanyang seemed to be more than his side, so his side finally

It's really good to win. At least Li Hui's opinion, it's OK. If your side doesn't perform well, then the final situation can be reversed. Fortunately, your side will win in the end. Even if this victory is not so useful, there are so many benefits, but if you win, you will win in the end. This result is what you want, which will make your side's morale rise.

Ah. So victory is still what he hopes for. Li Hui naturally hopes that his side will win, but he hopes that his side will have a lot of people left, rather than the thousands of people now. It’s a pity... After that, Ma Chao and everyone chatted with Li Hui for a few words. Of course, he also talked about the situation in Wancheng during these days with his lord. After all, Ma Chao also wanted to know about this. Finally, Ma Chao said to everyone: "Everyone, after two days of rest in Wancheng, we will return to Chang'an!"

What Guo Jia and the others said naturally did not include Pang De and Li Hui who were still here. Of course, Ma Chao also told them before that this should be recruited in Nanyang, and then it will be time. It was the past, but at that time it was not recruited at that time, but now it has lost so much, so if you don’t recruit some people in Nanyang, it will be difficult to supplement the loss.

So. And Ma Chao and the others didn't think that Li Tong had to recruit troops in Nanyang. After all, their Yanzhou army also lost a lot. The key is that not only the reinforcements sent by Cao Cao had lost, but also the guards in Jiyang City also lost a part of them. So Ma Chao and the others knew that if Li Tong wanted to replenish this part of the troops, he naturally had to stay in Nan.

Yang Zhengjun, there is no need to be more than 10,000 or 20,000 yuan. After that, Ma Chao told everyone that he would hold a banquet tonight and entertain everyone. Originally, Li Hui was here before, but it was definitely not his turn to make the decision, so he shouldn't say it. Of course, Ma Chao, who was the lord, went to say this. Everyone hasn't had a banquet together for many days, so they were very happy after listening to their lord's words. The main reason is that they can drink as they please. This is really not easy, especially Cui An and the others, who think so even more

Fa. After that, everyone took the leave one after another, only Pang De, Li Hui and Guo Jia were specially kept by Ma Chao. Everyone knew that his lord had something to ask them for. To put it bluntly, it was normal that there was something to say. Pang De and Li Hui were both guards in Nanyang. After that, his lord and others left, and they had to stay here all the time. Not to mention Guo Jia

That's the top strategist here now, so if you have anything to do, your lord naturally wants to say something to him. This is normal. After everyone left, there were only three people left, plus four Ma Chao. They were in the house. At this time, Ma Chao reminded Pang De and Li Hui, just waiting for him to leave in two days. They should pay more attention to Nanyang affairs. Although they are

After winning the reinforcements from Xu Du, Li Tong would not move to attack or something, but he really had to defend against what he should do. There was something without saying too much, Pang De and Li Hui and others understood, so Ma Chao didn't say much, just clicked until he knew it. Then, Ma Chao simply said the recruitment matters and handed them over to Pang De and Li Hui and others. As for the specific troops, how many soldiers should be recruited, Ma Chao meant that there were about 20,000 people. That's it, the two agreed in unison.

After that, Ma Chao also said a few words to Guo Jia, just to say whether Li Tong's side was like his side, and they also wanted to recruit soldiers. Guo Jia naturally nodded. He thought this was correct, so when he came back next time, the number of people in Jiyang City would definitely not be as small as today. Moreover, Guo Jia had to transfer troops from Yizhou to another place.

But it was not to go to Nanyang, but to Chang'an. After all, when the next advance, you have to send troops from Chang'an to come, so you have to add troops to Chang'an, so that's enough.
