The empty city plan actually failed!

Liu Bei froze in place, his eyes stunned, as if he had heard the most unbelievable thing in the world.

Burning Xinye is a clever plan that can be recorded in the history of the art of war!

was recognized by Cao Yuan.

The empty city plan is another unprecedented, unpredictable plan.

was once again recognized by Cao Yuan.

That Cao Yuan, his resourcefulness is so strong that with Wolong's peerless resourcefulness, he can't win?

Even if it's just one win!

Looking at Liu Bei's stunned and confused expression, Zhuge Liang felt ashamed and embarrassed, and didn't know how to explain it.

Then.

Dust and fog are rolling in the direction of Fancheng.

Sharp arrows roared out of the dust and struck at the ferry.

In an instant, the Han soldiers who were crowded by the Han River were caught off guard and were nailed to the ground in pieces.

The screams came one after another, and the Han army was immediately in chaos.

"It's not good, it's the Red Horse Righteous Servants of the Wei Army, they passed through Fancheng and chased them to the river!"

Huang Zhong pointed to the north and shouted.

Liu Bei shuddered, woke up from his lost soul, raised his eyes and looked into the distance, and sure enough, he saw countless Wei troops, which were coming.

The scene of the fiasco immediately appeared in front of me.

Liu Bei didn't dare to hesitate, stomped his feet fiercely, and flicked his hands helplessly: "Pass on the king's order, and the ships will set sail immediately and leave the ferry." "

Huang Zhong was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "King, we still have 20,000 people—"

He just wanted to be reminded, but the words came to his mouth and swallowed back.

The reality is so cruel, Cao Jun chased too fast, and the tens of thousands of remaining Han troops on the shore were destined to not be able to get on board.

In view of the experience of the retreat of Xinye, the sooner the soldiers on the shore were abandoned, the more the losses of the soldiers could be reduced.

"Ah~~"

Huang Zhong shook his head and sighed, and fell silent.

Wave the flag.

The naval warships quickly collected the bridge planks, untied the ropes, raised their sails and paddled, and forced themselves away from the ferry.

Tens of thousands of Han soldiers were left behind at the ferry.

"Don't leave us, king, let us get on the boat!"

"Please let me get on the boat, I still have a wife and children!"

"King, save us~~"

Wails resounded across the riverbank.

The desperate abandoners knelt on the river beach, begging Liu Bei not to leave them.

Liu Bei felt ashamed in his heart and didn't dare to face them, so he had to sigh and turn away.

The warship drifted away, and there was no turning back.

In the direction behind him, the Wei army had already killed the water camp and went straight to the crossing.

"Liu Bei is ruthless and unrighteous and abandoned us, why should we die for him and surrender the Wei army!"

In the midst of the pleading, I don't know who shouted.

"I fled back from Xinye, those brothers who did not surrender were all killed by the Wei army, let's surrender if we want to live!"

Someone screamed in terror again.

In the blink of an eye, the spiritual will of the Han troops along the coast collapsed.

They scolded Liu Bei, dropped their weapons one after another, knelt in the direction of Fancheng, and begged the Wei army to surrender.

"Unexpectedly descended to Wei, he is really a cowardly and unrighteous shameless man!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the Han soldiers who knelt on the ground and surrendered to Wei, and couldn't help but reprimand angrily.

Liu Bei turned his head suddenly, and it seemed that the scene of abandoning the pawn and surrendering to Wei, the guilt in his heart disappeared in an instant.

"Bang!"

He slammed his fist against the wall of the ship, gritted his teeth and said: "This king was forced to abandon you, you even surrendered to Wei without a fight, you are really shameless, and you are not worthy of being my big man!"

Liu Beikong was angry, but he could only watch as his 20,000 soldiers bowed their heads to Wei.

The king's flag with the word "Wei" was also raised on the shore, announcing the complete fall of Fancheng.

"The king, it is the minister's strategy that has been repeatedly miscalculated, causing our army to lose troops and generals, and please ask the king to surrender!"

Zhuge Liang felt guilty, and immediately knelt down to Liu Bei to plead guilty.

Liu Bei looked at Zhuge Liang who was kneeling on the ground, and resentment appeared on his face uncontrollably.

For a moment, he even had the urge to punch Zhuge Liang.

The northern expedition of 70,000 troops was just a futile, and it was accompanied by the two important towns of Xinye Fancheng.

Even before confronting the Wei army, it lost more than 20,000 soldiers and horses.

Such a heavy loss really made Liu Bei's flesh hurt, how could he not complain about Zhuge Liang in his heart.

"This is all because Cao Yuan is too deceitful, and he can't blame the military advisor, the military advisor should not blame himself too much, hurry up. "

Liu Bei still swallowed his grievances and hurriedly helped Zhuge Liang up.

He couldn't help it.

Zhuge Liang's wisdom is strong for all to see, comparable to the ancient Zhang Liang.

Blame can only be blamed, Cao Yuan is too strong.

Even Zhuge Liang's wisdom has been repeatedly suppressed by Cao Yuan, if he blames Zhuge Liang, who else can he rely on.

"Military Division, now that Fancheng has been lost, we have lost nearly 20,000 horses, what should we do next?"

Liu Bei couldn't wait to ask again.

Zhuge Liang's feather fan shook up, and the guilt on his face also changed to calm and confident in a blink of an eye.

"The strength of the Wei army lies in land warfare. "

"If the thief wants to swallow my Jingzhou, he must first fight the Han River, and if he wants to fight the Han River, he must rely on the water army. "

"Cao Thief has no water army, don't think about taking a step beyond Han Shui!"

"All the king has to do is to garrison the infantry army on the south bank, and the navy army to patrol the Han River, and wait for the Cao thief to retreat. "

Zhuge Liang sprinkled and planned a strategy for Liu Bei.

"The military advisor is reasonable!"

Liu Bei struck with both fists: "This king has the Han River and the natural danger, and the Cao thief has an army of millions, even if Cao Yuan is as resourceful as a god, what is there to fear!"

For a while, the gloom on Liu Bei's face was gone, and it was rare to squeeze out a little smile on his face.

Zhuge Liang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had regained some face.

Then.

Liu Bei's eyes rolled a few times, and he shouted: "Wei Yan listens to the order!"

"The last general!"

Wei Yan hurriedly stepped forward.

Liu Bei said sharply: "You quickly lead a team of people and horses to the upper reaches of the Han River, and bring Huang Chengyan's father and daughter back to Xiangyang safe and sound." "

"The last general obeys!"

Wei Yan took the order and left.

Zhuge Liang's heart was shocked, and he looked at Liu Bei with grateful eyes.

He had a marriage contract with the daughter of the Huang family, and the wedding was scheduled to be held this month, but it was delayed due to the Northern Expedition.

The Huang family manor is located on the north bank of the Han River, not far from Fancheng.

Liu Bei obviously saw his face, so he immediately sent troops to pick up the Huang family's father and daughter to take refuge in Xiangyang.

"Strategist, if it weren't for the fact that this king was going on a northern expedition, you would have married the daughter of the Huang family. "

"This time, I took Huang Gong's father and daughter back to Xiangyang, and this king personally presided over the wedding for you, and I will definitely let you be a military advisor and marry the daughter of the Huang family!"

Liu Bei smiled enthusiastically.

"King~~"

Seeing Liu Bei's care for his private affairs, Zhuge Liang felt that he didn't know what to say.

Half an hour later.

Zhuge Liang took a deep breath and waved to Liu Bei: "Thank you for the king's kindness, the ministers will do their best for the king, and then die." "

Liu Bei smiled and lifted Zhuge Liang's hand.

The two gentlemen and ministers, holding hands, looked at each other, looked at each other affectionately, and everything was silent.
