    Zhang Fei was ambushed by Dian Wei on Yuqiao Slope, and the army was instantly in chaos.

    Even if he resisted vigorously, he could not avoid the fate of defeat.

    Especially since the leader of this ambush was his old enemy Dian Wei, who had fought against him many times.

    How could the other party miss such a good opportunity?

    I saw Dian Wei rushing straight into Zhang Fei's formation like a tiger descending the mountain, killing those soldiers who had long been exhausted and turning them on their backs.

    At this time, Dian Wei finally saw Zhang Fei and shouted: "Don't leave, you thief with ring eyes, just take a bite from me!"

    "In normal times, when Zhang Fei heard the opponent's provocation, he would rush forward and fight him for hundreds of rounds.

    But today is different from the past. Now we are about to be surrounded by enemy troops, and all the soldiers on our side have lost their morale.

    "If we don't lead the troops back quickly, they will really be wiped out."

    Therefore, Zhang Fei had no choice but to pretend not to hear and continued to organize his troops to retreat without any hesitation.

    "It's just that this army was so exhausted on the road just now that it almost couldn't muster the strength to even run for its life.

    Those soldiers who could not walk, did not hesitate to kneel down and surrender in order to survive.

    However, more people naturally followed Zhang Fei's footsteps, gritted their teeth and fled towards Jiangling.

    In fact, it¡¯s not that these people really still have strength, but because almost all of Zhang Fei¡¯s soldiers are from Yizhou.

    ¡°If we surrender, I¡¯m afraid I will never have the chance to return to my hometown again in this life.

    So what kept them escaping was not their loyalty to Zhang Fei or Liu Bei, but their attachment to their hometown.

    As for Dian Wei, how could he let Zhang Fei go so easily? He led his men like wolves and tigers to pursue him hard.  The corpses of Yizhou soldiers were everywhere along the direct killing path.

    Fortunately, Zhang Fei's men worked hard to survive. After trying their best to escape, the entire army was not wiped out.

    But he was still chased by Dian Wei all the way to Jiangling.

    Prior to this, when Zhang Fei passed through the empty camp left by Dian Wei, he sent someone back to report the news to Cheng Pu, leaving him to garrison while he pursued.

    However, after Cheng Pu got the news, a stone suddenly hung on his head and he was still uneasy.

    Finally, he finally led a group of troops to the east to catch up with Zhang Fei.

    As for Jiangling City, he no longer cares about defense.

    " Anyway, the lord has already made an explanation before leaving. If things change, there is no need to hold on, and you can give up at the right time.

    Cheng Pu had not chased him far when he saw people in twos and threes running back from the opposite side.

    Judging from the costumes, they should undoubtedly be Yizhou soldiers and horses, but these people looked very panicked, as if something fatal had happened.

    Cheng Pu quickly stopped a soldier dressed as a junior high school student and went up to interrogate him.

    After asking, I finally learned that Zhang Fei's army encountered an enemy ambush at Yuqiao Slope, suffered heavy losses, and was escaping here.

    Hearing the news, Cheng Pu couldn't wait any longer and ordered the army to set off quickly to respond.

    After marching for a few more miles, the shouts of killing became increasingly clear and audible, and Cheng Pu's brows became more and more frowned.

    At this moment, he finally saw that familiar figure, it was Zhang Fei running towards this side.

    Cheng Pu quickly shouted: "General Yide, I'm here to help you!"

    When Zhang Fei saw that the visitor was Cheng Pu, he burst into tears of joy and hurriedly said: "Old General Cheng, be careful, the enemy troops are numerous and powerful and cannot be underestimated!"

    This time, Zhang Fei finally knew he was afraid.

    Cheng Pu didn't say anything more, he caught up and started fighting with his pursuers.  With his help, Zhang Fei was finally able to escape this disaster.

    Dian Wei saw that the opponent's reinforcements had arrived, but his current strength was not enough to completely wipe out the opponent.

    There was no continued strong attack like before, but the speed of pursuit gradually slowed down.

    In this way, Zhang Fei finally returned to Jiangling City under the cover of Cheng Pu. Then he didn't even bother to take a breath and rushed to the top of the city to prevent the opponent from attacking and seizing the city.

    Cheng Pu, on the other hand, fought and retreated, but also immediately closed the city gates and refused to defend after returning.

    Dian Wei's army chased them all the way to Jiangling City before giving up.

    However, he did not leave directly. Instead, according to Liu Ke's request, he immediately set up camp outside the city to frighten the enemy.

    At the same time, he quietly ordered people to bluff, creating the illusion that the entire army was catching up.

    Even more soThe expressions of Zhang Fei and Cheng Pu became even more ugly, and they immediately guarded the city, not daring to carry anything with them.

    After this ambush, Zhang Fei's troops suffered heavy losses.

    In addition to several fierce battles before, there were only 20,000 soldiers and horses in the city now, but now there are only more than 10,000.

    With such a small number of troops, even if they were stationed in Jiangling, they were unable to cope with it, which made Zhang Fei never dare to leave the city again.

    As for Dian Wei, he came to the city from time to time to attack, forcing the opponent to retreat and garrison. From then on, all contact with the outside world was cut off.

    Speaking of Jiangjin, although Liu Ke¡¯s army has not arrived yet, it is still not peaceful here.

    After Lu Bu came to Jiangjin, he originally saw the emptiness in the city and wanted to attack the city by force and cut off the other side's retreat.

    But they were destroyed one after another by Zhang Ya, Sun Quan and others.

    Now that the main forces of Sun Quan and Liu Bei have retreated to Jiangjin, Lu Bu no longer has the chance to easily seize the city.

    That¡¯s why he asked Liu Ke for help.

    However, during this period, Sun Quan and Liu Bei could not always stay in the city because they wanted to take the opportunity to cross south.

    Lu Bu found out that they were sending troops out every day, and he didn't know what they were doing.

    So, Lu Bu quietly sent someone to follow him one day, and he finally understood after seeing this.

    It turned out that Sun Quan's army was searching the coast and recruiting ships.

    Because his naval force had been wiped out before, the ships had no time to resupply.

    Although Jiangjin has been ordered to step up construction, the quantity is still not enough to meet the needs of the army.

    Therefore, Sun Quan could only recruit the boats of the surrounding people along the way to cross the river.

    Although Lu Bu didn't know what the other party's borrowing of the boat was for, since it was so important, he absolutely couldn't sit idly by.

    So, Lu Bu led a group of soldiers and horses and rushed there.

    The leader of this recruiting team is He Xiong, and he is actually just one of many recruiting teams.

    Now Sun Quan has issued a very strict order, which must be completed within three days.

    Therefore, He Xiong didn't care about many things and resorted to all kinds of methods, causing people's resentment to boil and the complaints to spread.

    However, his method worked wonders. Today, he actually got dozens of fishing boats.

    Although each ship can carry not many people, it can be regarded as overfulfilling today's mission.

    So on the way back, He Xiong was in a very good mood and couldn't help but whistle.

    However, not long after he left, he saw a group of soldiers coming from the front, heading towards him. At first glance, they looked very unfamiliar, and he couldn't tell who they were.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
