    Victory is hard-won.

    The Yangzhou Times recorded this incident. Just the simple battle report data is enough to prove that Yangzhou was victorious.

    This move is inspiring.

    "In this unprecedented battle, the Marquis of Dongyang won!"

    "The Marquis of Dongyang maintained his undefeated reputation and actually defeated 350,000 people with 120,000 men. The loss was so small, it is simply unbelievable."

    ¡­¡­

    People in Yangzhou were talking a lot, and their sense of belonging became stronger.  The stronger Dongyang Hou is, the safer they will be.

    Living in troubled times, what could be more fortunate than this?

    The people of Yangzhou are now divided into three parts. One part is the aboriginal people with household registration, the other part is the surrendered "Shanyue" aboriginal people, and the last part is the immigrants.

    They are said to be immigrants, which sounds nice. In fact, they are just people from other states who fled to Yangzhou for refuge due to the war.

    This group of people has the largest number. They have personally experienced military disasters, and of course they know what a stable and strong government means.

    Therefore, they are happy to see Liu Ke achieve an invincible reputation. In this way, no one will dare to offend Yangzhou.

    In Yangzhou, even the people were talking about this matter. Unlike other places, only the gentry got first-hand information.

    As for the common people, they are not qualified to talk eloquently.

    Except for the areas ruled by Liu Ke, other states and counties still implemented the strategy of "fooling the people".  Of course, part of the reason is that there is no way to promote education because of poverty.

    The gentry held absolute ruling power.

    Therefore, after hearing that Cao Cao was "defeated", they were in panic all day long.  Some people even want to contact the friends and families they have made in Yangzhou and be prepared for the three burrows of cunning rabbits.

    How could Cao Cao tolerate such a thing?

    He quickly issued a statement that he was not defeated.

    Whether or not you believe it is unknown.

    Cao Cao was forced to do nothing, and even asked Liu Ke for help, hoping that Liu Ke would come forward to prove it.

    Liu Ke didn¡¯t even want to pay attention to him!

    When Liu Ke agreed to a "tie", he actually had such a purpose.

    People's eyes are sharp.

    There will be a fair conclusion on victory or defeat.

    "I was tricked by Marquis Dongyang again!" Cao Cao said fiercely.

    Don't underestimate "defeat" and "draw". The difference between one word and one word affects the stability under Cao Cao's rule.

    If people no longer have confidence in Cao Cao, there will be no need to continue this battle.

    Originally, Cao Cao wanted to form a new army, but very few people took the initiative to join the army.

    If Xi Zhicai had not persuaded Cao Cao to wait for a while, Cao Cao would have ordered the recruitment directly.

    The troops suffered heavy losses and could not be replaced. This is the current situation of Cao Cao's army.

    Although it was not a complete failure, it was extremely miserable.

    No one wants to be an enemy of Liu Ke. He constantly refreshes the myth of being undefeated and surprises people again and again.

    Zhang Liao got the news that the way back was clear, and he could finally attack Luoyang City with confidence and boldness, trying to cut off the connection between Luoyang and Yanzhou.

    However, Cao Cao had already sent General Jun to guard this place.

    Although Zhang Liao did not capture Luoyang, he posed a great threat to Cao Cao's army's food routes.

    What a bad luck!

    Cao Cao was filled with emotion.

    If it weren¡¯t for the unstable morale of the army as the battle in Runan had just ended, Cao Cao would have led his army to besiege Zhang Liao.

    It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t move now!

    Cao Cao had to modify the transportation route. Food needed to pass through Bingzhou before it could be transported to Chenliu.

    We still have to cross the river, which is a lot of trouble.

    At first, Cao Cao was very proud and told Yuan Shao that if there was a shortage of food, he would give him some support.

    Now this promise may be invalidated.

    Cao Cao suddenly realized that even with Yuan Shao's full support, he couldn't do anything.

    "Mengde, you are still too impulsive." Yuan Shao sighed, the morale of the Allied forces was destroyed in one battle.

    "I was careless," Cao Cao said.

    "If I had known earlier, I should have waited and watched for a while. In this way, you would not be impulsive." Yuan Shao said.

    "" Cao Cao didn't know what to say.

    This time Yuan Shao¡¯s support is nothing worth complaining about.  There were a total of 400,000 troops, and 300,000 were supported.

      Yan Liangwen Chou has suffered some damage.

    "Meng De, what are your plans next?" Yuan Shao asked.

    Cao Cao was directly asked. Of course he knew Yuan Shao's plan.

    Yuan Shao did not hide anything and said: "If we stick to it, to be honest, I cannot stay in Yanzhou for a long time. I have already depleted all the soldiers and horses in Jizhou. Once we are attacked, the consequences will be disastrous."

    It¡¯s okay if you¡¯re not here, the troops and horses will stay

    Cao Cao wanted to say this very much, but unfortunately he did not dare to say it. Now that his strength is damaged, he can only rely more on his allies, but he cannot offend Yuan Shao at this time.

    "I also understand Benchu's situation. Can I stay here for a month, and then Benchu ??will decide whether to stay or not?" Cao Cao said.

    If Dongyang Hou does not attack for a month, Cao Cao is sure to get out of the predicament.

    Yuan Shao fell into deep thought. One month is indeed more appropriate. Cao Cao speaks through his brain.

    "Okay." Yuan Shao agreed.

    Cao Cao was overjoyed and held a banquet to drink with Yuan Shao to celebrate his "great victory".

    Unfortunately, facts have proven that Cao Cao¡¯s so-called one-month declaration is not reliable at all.

    After Liu Ke stabilized Runan, he left Xu Chu and his Chongbu battalion to guard it, and then returned to the main battlefield.

    Ganning¡¯s Chishui Army is still active in the Yangtze River Basin to ensure nothing goes wrong.

    "Congratulations, my lord, on your victorious return!" Zhao Yun and others said in unison.

    "No need to be polite," Liu Kedao said.

    After everyone took their seats, Liu Ke went straight to the point and said: "Next, we are going to attack Chenliu County."

    "My lord, is the war about to begin?" Lu Bu said excitedly.

    The main battlefield was so quiet that there was no friction at all. Lu Bu could not hold himself back for a long time.

    "No, we are just responsible for containment." Liu Kedao.

    Hearing this, Lu Bu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

    Xu Shu had already vaguely made a guess. Liu Ke¡¯s next words confirmed Xu Shu¡¯s guess.

    "Liaodong came to report that the army has begun to attack Youzhou. It is enough to delay time and prevent Yuan Shao from returning reinforcements." Liu Ke explained.

    "I'm afraid that Yuan Shao will ignore the overall situation and return to the army directly." Xu Shu thought.

    "Then attack Chen Liu directly." Liu Ke made up his mind.

    "Yuan Shao will definitely go back, hahaha!" Lu Bu laughed, wishing Yuan Shao would leave quickly.

    It seems that he is really depressed.

    Liu Ke is also considering the current situation. If Chen Deng can succeed, Yuan Shao will definitely be in chaos.

    During this period, how can they expand their advantages?

    In the next few days, Chen Liu remained calm. Cao Cao recalled Xiahou Dun and directly abandoned Taishan County.

    Xiahou Dun was very reluctant. He didn't want to take advantage of Dian Wei.

    But it¡¯s hard to disobey military orders.

    After Xia Houdun left, Dianwei's army was like a broken bamboo, and it went down to the cities.  If we work hard, we might be able to disconnect Jizhou and Yanzhou.

    After Yuan Shao learned the news, his face was ugly, Cao Mengde, did you do this on purpose?

    In order to prevent me from going back, you did this!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
