So if you really think that this is a lord who is a lord, it will be a disturbing morale of the army. Then, let alone an ordinary soldier, even a chief clerk like Yang Xiu, you will still be caught. Yes, Yang Xiu was killed in the end for many reasons, but what made Cao Cao unwaveringly kill him was his idle incident, and it was worthy of it. Cao Cao believed that he was disrupting morale of the army, which was not bad at all. At this time, the Jiangdong army retreated at night, and it would not be possible to retreat. It was time to leave. Sun Ce and the others were in their hearts.

If you are unwilling, but if you go to Xiling again, it will be of no benefit to your side, so it is really "if you don't retreat at this time, you will stay even more", which is good. And Sun Ce also knew that at this time, not only Pang Tong, but also Dong Xi and the others, they all agreed to withdraw their troops. This is true. Speaking of which, they are the same as themselves, and they have always been unwilling to accept it. It's true that

Speaking of which, even if it was good in the last battle today, they would not say anything they wanted. It was really useless, and this was also right. For the rest, then, let's talk about it when all our troops retreated to Qichun. At that time, it would be better to see if we want to increase troops to continue fighting in Jiangxia. Besides, there is a Yanzhou army in the north, and they are also what we need to consider.

The one who went in was indeed... The Jiangdong Army's idea was that they definitely didn't want to make wedding dresses for the Yanzhou Army, which was certain. So they thought, to see if their side retreated temporarily, could let the Liangzhou Army burn the war to the Yanzhou Army. After all, there were less than 10,000 people there. At the beginning, 10,000 people came to Jiangxia, but now there are not so many people. Sun Ce and the others knew that they also wanted to believe in the Liangzhou Army. They did not have that many people in the north. This is good, but it is definitely also

It is the regular army of the Liangzhou Army, and that's the same. So you can't stand the Yanzhou Army in the three counties? Sun Ce and the others think it's unlikely that Xiyang City is enough for the Yanzhou Army to drink a pot. Really, so... Now the Yanzhou Army is probably not as good as its own, so Sun Ce and the others think that if Cao Cao continues to increase his troops, it's okay.

But otherwise, only a few thousand of them could not stop the Liangzhou army. So this is the same, they are not as good as their own, which is what Sun Ce thinks. In fact, if the Yanzhou army really comes, then they might have to fight with the Liangzhou army at this time, but will they do that? I don't believe it, but they still want to fight with the Liangzhou army to the death.

We are so good at getting a bargain, so Sun Ce also knows what the Yanzhou Army thinks, but he doesn't want them to succeed. However, this matter is not decided by our side, but mainly depends on the Liangzhou Army. Indeed, if they have to fight with our side, then our side can't escape, but if they want to fight with the Yanzhou Army, then the latter will be the same as that. It's that simple. So Sun Ce naturally knows that the initiative in the attack is in the hands of three parties, and each army has it, for example, if he wants to enter.

Attacking the Liangzhou army, then our side attacked before, then this was our side's initiative. And the Yanzhou army attacked Jiangxia, which was also their initiative. But now our side retreated temporarily, then at this time, the initiative was handed over to the Liangzhou army. Whether it was our side or the Yanzhou army, we didn't want to fight the Liangzhou army to the death at this time. So whoever they attacked would be considered unlucky. And Sun

Ce was not afraid of anything, but he didn't want the Liangzhou army to come and fight with his side again. The Yanzhou army had less than 10,000 troops. Obviously, they are even softer now, so if he was Ma Chao, it would be better to quickly take back the counties in the north. Of course, it is not ruled out that he continued to attack his side. This is also what Ma Chao may continue to do, but Sun Ce didn't want to do that, because that would be of no benefit to his side, but it would be beneficial to the Yanzhou army. That's it

So this is also true. If the Liangzhou army chooses its own side at this time, then it is still the one who fights with them. If they choose the Yanzhou army, it is the best result, which is what they want to see. But what they want to see is definitely not what the Yanzhou army wants to see. They hope that the Liangzhou army will continue to fight with its own side. That's it, instead of attacking the north side, that's it. And what the Liangzhou army is going to do now depends on Ma Chao's idea, even if it's the other few

The general and the counselor Guo Jia actually couldn't change his ideas too much, and Sun Ce and others knew it. So the decision was all in the hands of Ma Chao, the boss, not others. But now, the current situation is still the case, and they continue to attack their own side. This is a high chance, which is Sun Ce's idea. And if they want to deal with the Yanzhou army, the chance is small.

So, that's it. How can I say this? If the Liangzhou Army insists on continuing to fight with our own side, then I can only accompany you to the end, and there is nothing to say. For Sun Ce, he is not afraid of anything. This is really true. After all, the next battle will not be a big battle outside the city, but a siege. Therefore, it is said that it has advantages and benefits for our side. Therefore, there is nothing to be afraid of the Liangzhou Army, it is that simple.

The Jiangdong Army completely retreated. For the Liangzhou Army, this is really the best result. It is what Ma Chao and the others want to see. Even if they do not retreat, they will fight to the end. The ones who are concerned about it are not their own, but more of them. That's it. So when they retreat, they will think about it. Now their best choice is what they want. Otherwise, if they continue to fight, both sides will lose more and more, and this is actually not what both sides want to see. And now,

When the Jiangdong Army leaves, both armies can rest and rest, which is good for both sides. This is OK. It should be said that they want to see it, it is that simple. For the rest, if Ma Chao and his team are going to fight against, they actually don’t have a clear idea yet. After all, the initiative is in their hands. It’s not easy for them to go to war with the two armies, so they will deal with it.

Fang said that, it was actually more than enough. This is indeed. The Yanzhou army had only a few thousand people. The Liangzhou army did not take them too seriously, but they did not see their little men. But if the other party wanted to increase their troops, the Liangzhou army would be pale in comparison, which was definitely not enough. So, in the north, there was indeed such a problem here, which was not so easy to fight.

So this is all a matter. Ma Chao knew that whether his side finally dealt with the Yanzhou army or against the Jiangdong army again, it was actually a fierce battle, which was not easier than the previous battle with the Jiangdong army outside Xiling City. This is certain. After all, if they face the Yanzhou army, unless they don’t send more people, then it’s okay for them to deal with them. But if they send more people, it will be a bad thing for them and will not be of any benefit to them. If they face the Jiangdong army, they are

The defense line has been shrinking, Sun Ce must have led his troops back to Qichun. If he wants to retake Qichun again, he will at least take back the two counties of Zhu and Hubei occupied by the Jiangdong Army. To be honest, compared to Qichun, Ma Chao thought it would be easier to get them back, but it was a matter of how many people he would lose. But if he really took them down in the end, how many people he could still have left? Ten thousand?

It's still 20,000, which is probably just that. But if there were only a few people to attack Qichun, to be honest, Ma Chao wouldn't think it's enough, so this is true. At that time, we have to continue to mobilize troops to Jiangxia, otherwise we will really not be able to take back the lost territory. So there is also a problem with this when we face the Jiangdong Army again. Even if they won't increase their troops when they are fighting with us for the time being, no one can explain it clearly in the future, so it's true that this matter is really difficult to deal with.

At this time, after Ma Chao saw that the Jiangdong army had withdrawn from the Xiling territory, he and Guo Jia and others entered Xiling and did not rest in the camp outside the city. After all, there was a better place, and Ma Chao must have entered the city, not outside the city. When it was marching and fighting, it was not good for him to be in the city, but now the war has come to an end. Even if he and Guo Jia and others returned to Xiling City, then the soldiers on their side would not be able to understand. So this is true. If Ma Chao had returned when he fought with the Jiangdong army before, when Ma Chao had fought with the Jiangdong army before, he would have been very good.

If it were in Xiling City, then it was indeed not good for him to do so, but at this time the Jiangdong army retreated, so naturally, he and Guo Jia and the others went back. When he returned to Xiling, Zang Ba personally went out of the city to welcome his six lords, which was a little different from before. At that time, Ma Dai did not come, so he directly led the army to camp, but at this time, he also followed Ma Chao.

It was the first time I entered Xiling in this period. Indeed, Ma Chao nodded to Zang Ba and the others, and then entered Xiling together. Although he had been fighting against the Jiangdong Army outside Xiling City during this period, it was indeed a long time since he came here. He had not entered the city for a long time, right? He had been fighting against the Jiangdong Army outside the city, and Ma Chao and the others had not arrived in the West either.

Go to the tomb. Everyone followed their lords into Xiling together. They all knew that they would definitely hold a banquet tonight. Zang Ba held a banquet to entertain his lords, and of course they also added these few. In fact, even if they didn't mention anything else, just saying that the Jiangdong Army was forced to retreat by their own side, this would be enough to hold a big banquet in Xiling City, and everyone would have a drink. Indeed, for Zang Ba, what could it be more exciting than the Jiangdong Army being forced to retreat by their own side.

Yes, he hoped more that he would hear the news that the Jiangdong army was wiped out, but when he thought about it, it was actually unlikely. It was not that there was no possibility at all, but the chance was really slim. He thought that this was right. If the Jiangdong army was going to be wiped out, no matter how, Sun Bofu would not let them Jiangdong army do that. Zang Ba felt that he was thinking about it.

That's right, if he was Sun Ce, he would have to do so. Of course, if they had the ability, they would not be able to eliminate all their troops and let their troops be wiped out. That would be even more powerful. But obviously, the Jiangdong Army did not have the ability yet. It was not that Zang Ba underestimated them. It was true that they were not that powerful.

So this is true. If the Jiangdong Army forced the side to retreat, then it is really their ability. Even if they still can't take Xiling in the future, as long as they can destroy 100,000 of their own troops, even if they are powerful. But obviously, they still don't have the ability, so this is true. If they reconcile with them, there will be nothing to hold a banquet in Xiling tonight, not. But the fact is not that, but our side took advantage and forced the Jiangdong Army to retreat.

Now that they have withdrawn from the territory of Xiling, their side has achieved a phased victory. Indeed, this can force the Jiangdong Army, which is more people than their side, is actually a phased victory, which is true. Zang Ba also thought of it later. Obviously, his lord wants to continue to advance, but where he went, then this is not certain. Everything is possible, and it is to continue to go with the Jiangdong Army.

It is not certain whether to go to the north or the war. At this time, the horses had already returned from the north or the news came to report the north or the news, but this time it was more specific. After hearing this, Ma Chao and the others were actually expecting everything. After losing two counties, Guo Huai led his troops back, and Xiyang and the others did not take it. All of this was actually as expected. After all, there were 10,000 troops from the Yanzhou army.

It's 100,000, so this... but the other party has 10,000 people and occupied two counties on its own. This has to be said to be their ability. It can't be said that they are too bad. Ma Chao and others will not admit it, but it is definitely not that the other party is too powerful. Speaking of which, the Yanzhou army is not that way. But even ten thousand people can occupy two counties on its own. This is not only because they have few teams on its own, but also because they have succeeded in sneak attacks. Ma Chao admits this. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been said that.

The same is true for Qichun, but Qichun has more people than the two counties in the north, but it was still taken down by the Jiangdong Army. Of course, it is not wrong to stop the surprise attack of 150,000 people and horses. It is understandable. Not to mention Qichun, even in Xiling, although it would not be possible to break the city at once, the other side attacked and suffered losses after the battle.
