The preparation lasted for a year, the five states' majestic troops also mobilized hundreds of thousands of civilians to dig pools and build ships to train naval forces. As a result, they were destroyed in just one night. Qingzhou's sea ships were 60, hundreds of ships of various colors, and thousands of ships of all sizes. The Xiangyang Navy ships, which Liu Biao had saved for many years, were also cremated into ashes in Wulin.

At the source of the army, even the plague died of illness, burned, captured, and disappeared during assault operations, the army alone, and more than 200,000 troops went there. The civilians following the team were dispersed in the attack battle. It is probably difficult to count the specific losses.

Most importantly, Cao Cao's ambition to unify the world was also wiped out with the fire!

…………

Taiping Bridge, Huarong County, Jingzhou!

In history, Guan Yu suddenly jumped out here, which scared Mr. Cao, but the real situation was that Zhuge Liang was not that amazing at all. Only a swamp was prevented from retreating to the north! During the Han Dynasty, there were large areas of lakes near Jingzhou that had not dried up. This place was a swamp wetland after the lake retreated during the flooding period.

When Cao Cao came in, he seemed to have fought with his junior brother in the swamp. In the battle of Liaodong, this swamp was also hindering him.

In the muddy swamp, the horse's hooves were sank, and the heavy infantry had to fall down one foot, but in such a mud, tens of thousands of Cao troops rushed into the swamp, carrying knives to exhaust themselves, cutting the dry reeds and shrubs growing in the swamp, paving the way for the army.

It was indeed exhausted. All the soldiers selected to work were infected or injured in the army, or simply weak soldiers. The survivors who barely escaped during the destruction of the Red Cliff Battle were already weak. They were even more insulting to work in the cold and muddy swamp. After working for more than half an hour, they had to build a strait of less than one meter wide.

But at this time, a horse sound suddenly sounded behind her back, and more than a dozen red feathers rushed over from the cavalry panting, shouting loudly at Cao Jun in horror.

"The pursuers have arrived! The pursuers have arrived!"

In fact, in terms of military strength, Zhou Yu's Wu army only had 50,000, and Liu Bei had only more than 10,000 defeated generals. The Cao army here still had 70,000 to 80,000, and there were more than 30,000 cavalry left. If Zhou Yu dared to catch up with him, he would come and eat as much as he would!

However, after just experiencing a big defeat, the exhausted Cao army's morale almost fell to zero. Both the cavalry and infantry became frightened birds. Listening to the warning from the rear army, the former general Zhang He ran directly on his horse and led his Hebei cavalry to plunge into the muddy swamp without hesitation.

Moreover, not only did not avoid the sick Cao army soldiers, but instead trampled on them. The weak soldiers who had been exhausted from illness and escape work could not even run away. They just trampled into the muddy swamp in rows. After Zhang He's three thousand cavalry flowed through the Huarong swamp, the tens of thousands of weak soldiers were trampled to death by 6,000 to 7,000 to trampling to death.

The survivors were not left to the survivors. With this leader, the Cao army troops who flew to the death in the face of disaster were also hardened. Following Zhang He's cavalry's rear corpses, they also retreated northwards with their own robes, and stepped on one foot after another. Those who fell in the swamp and were still trampled in and drowned.

"Prime Minister! Prime Minister! Little Xiahou Yu! Prime Minister Help! Help! Cao Cao himself led his personal guards to trample over the swamp. A shrill scream for help suddenly sounded beside him, half-destroying in the swamp. A small school wearing a helmet was full of horror and crying and reaching out to him for help.

The surname Xiahou and who knew Cao Cao was not the young man from the Xiahou family in Qiao County. However, when he looked at him coldly, Cao Cao seemed to have not seen it, and continued to jog north with the reins of the horse. The poor school did not call a few times. A horse's hooves, which were not sure whether they were interested or unintentional, stomped on his back. His whole body was trampled into the swamp. After just a few bubbles came up, a living person was no longer visible.

However, after the entire Cao army crossed the Huarong swamp, the pursuers of Sun and Liu who were shouting and shouting never appeared.

After all, it was the Southern Army. Zhou Yu had 50,000 troops and less than 5,000 cavalry. Moreover, the entire army attacked and fought hard for a night. The Wu army was also exhausted and did not dare to pursue the Cao army, which was still powerful.

However, in such a cruel march, Cao's military was almost eliminated by his own people!

Even if the plague and typhoid fever is not the entire cause of the failure of the entire war, at least half of it! I have been tortured by this tattoo for more than two months and are still suffering from great defeat. Once the plague is brought back to Jiangbei and to Xiangyang, Nanjun, Xudu, and Yecheng! The pandemic caused by typhoid fever, the Cao regime, which was defeated, is in danger of collapse. There will be no idea how many people will die of illness in the Central Plains!

However, only if you can be so decisive and hard-working to your own people, you can only do it as cruel as Cao Cao! Even if you are a poisonous soldier, Jia Xu, you must be slightly inferior!

In this cruel era, it is true that only cruel people can live to the end!

…………

Outside the frontier, Xiangping!

The battle of Xiangping, which began in September, started in siege in September, was almost in parallel with the Battle of Chibi, and was coming to an end.

Although he issued the wrong siege order at the wrong time, victory still belonged to the Liaodong Army. There was no way, Wang Houjun was too rich!

Take the injury as an example! He was also injured by an arrow or a knife, but the injury was not deep. This is the most common situation on the battlefield. The soldiers of the Liaodong Army were quickly dragged back to the field hospital in Ma'anshan. The hospital had some trauma medical treatment for treatment. He immediately had high-level wine distilled repeatedly for disinfection. Then the wounded soldiers could lie on the warm kang wrapped in cotton gauze and recover from the wounded. They had meat and eggs to eat fullness. After more than ten days, they would be a hero again.

But the Xiangping Army would not be treated so well! If you are caught in an arrow or a knife, you can wrap the wound with a piece of rag. If you can move, you have to go into battle. If you can't move, find a place to die! In the cold Liaodong night, hundreds or even thousands of wounded soldiers can die. Such a fierce battle was reduced, coupled with the lack of supplies and exhausted, even though you were guarding Xiangping and there was a threat of death, the morale of the Xiangping defenders was still defeated like an avalanche.

On the wall, hundreds of Jinzhou brigade soldiers had already been killed. They were wearing warm clothes and sweating and fighting with the Xiangping defenders who were already hungry and thin. On the wall, one side, two sides, a large string of Gongsun banners were cut down.

However, Wang Hou, who was wearing a dog-skin hat under the city, couldn't be happy at all. Instead, he looked at the Jiangnan war report that was sent back by Fei Ge of the Military Statistics Bureau with concern.

History has finally happened!

Although it was difficult to accept, Wang Hou's heart couldn't help but fall down in discomfort. There was a certain letter more than the unresolved one! He pinched the wrinkled brother Fei's mailing the letter for a few seconds, and Wang Hou grinned and shouted again.
Chapter completed!
