Ai Lang looked at the report sent by Xuchang, his brows frowned for a while, and then stretched out again. It turned out that in the report, in the direction of Hanzhong, Liu Bei's army discovered Xu Shu's plan to lure the enemy into depth, and used the plan to severely damage his army that was ambushing south of Hanzhong, losing nearly 10,000 people. Now Liu Bei's two armies have broken into Hanzhong and met at the city of Hanzhong, and the situation has become a little unfavorable for his side; and in the middle, the barbarian coalition led by Ke Bi Neng and others have obtained it.

The ships supported by Cao Pi had a more intense attack on the south bank than before, I was afraid that it would not take long before Ke Bi Neng and others could break through the Qin army's south bank defense line; finally, news from the Cao army, Cao Pi personally led a large army to attack Qingzhou, and the battle was in a stalemate. Sima Yi's suggestion to remind Cao Pi to be careful of logistics was not accepted by Cao Pi, so that a cavalry of the Qin army successfully raided the Cao army's heavy grain site. Cao's army suffered a lot of losses in food and grass, and his morale was frustrated, and his offensive was no longer as good as before.

After reading the bamboo slips, Ailang paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. The battle situation in Hanzhong and Luoyang made him very worried. Although he had gained some advantage in Qingzhou, the main force of the other party was not damaged and had no intention of retreating. It is still unpredictable how the war there would develop! Ailang felt a little annoyed and muttered, "Damn it! Who did I provoke whom? Why are everyone in the world coming to be an enemy of me?"

After thinking about it, he said to the female soldier: "Call General Zhang Liao General Lu Meng to the hall immediately!" The female soldier responded and ran away.

Ailang returned to the room. Huang Wudie sat up in the quilt, her hair was scattered on her body, and her two smooth shoulders were exposed in the air. At this time, Huang Wudie actually showed a very rare lazy beauty.

Ailang walked to the bed and bent down to kiss Huang Wudie's forehead, and said, "You don't have to hurry up. I'll be back with you later." Huang Wudie nodded, looking obedient. Ailang smiled slightly and turned around.

In the hall, Ailang saw Zhang Liao and Lu Meng who were rushing toward Ailang. They clasped their fists and said, "King of Qin!" Ailang handed the bamboo slips in his hand to the two of them, and said, "You can take a look at this."

The two of them took the bamboo slips and looked at them, both of them looking thoughtful. Lu Meng said: "As far as the situation is concerned, Qingzhou does not need to worry. The army led by Lord Jia Xu has successfully suffocated the spirit of Cao's army. It should not be a big problem to defend Qingzhou. However, the direction of Hanzhong and Luoyang is a bit bad! Especially in Hanzhong, our army failed to lead the king into the trap, and lost 10,000 troops and horses, and the most worrying thing is that this defeat will affect the morale of the Hanzhong defenders! Moreover, Hanzhong was only included in the territory of our army recently, and its foothold has not yet stabilized! Finally, we thought it should be the worst plan!"

Ailang paced back and forth in the hall. When he heard Lu Meng's words, he couldn't help asking: "What are the worst plans do you think you should do?" Lu Meng hesitated for a moment and clasped his fists and said, "I thought I should make plans to give up Hanzhong!" Ailang frowned, looked at Zhang Liao, and asked: "What do you think Wenyuan?"

Zhang Liao thought, "What Lu Meng said is not unreasonable. But I think our army is far from being able to give up Hanzhong." He looked at Lu Meng and smiled and said, "General Lu Meng joined our army for a short time, and now he is only in contact with the tens of thousands of troops of our army in Jingzhou. He does not have a special understanding of the combat capabilities of our army, so he has such a statement." Lu Meng frowned and asked, "Does the general think that the Hanzhong defenders can defend Hanzhong? Of course, there is this possibility, but the last general believes that the war is of great importance and must not have any luck.

Otherwise, once it is beyond expectations, the consequences will be unimaginable!" Zhang Liao smiled and said to Ai Lang: "Although the 120,000 troops in Hanzhong are much worse than Liu Bei, they are all elite soldiers in a hundred battles! With Xu Shu and Ma Chao in charge, the last general will never believe that Liu Bei can easily seize Hanzhong! The focus of the battle situation in the north is not Hanzhong, nor Qingzhou, but Luoyang! If Gongtai and Zilong can defeat the barbarian army, the entire northern front will be reversed!" When Lu Meng heard Zhang Liao's words, he immediately understood what he meant and looked at Zhang Liao with admiration.

Zhang Liao continued: "The problem of Hanzhong depends on the battle situation in Luoyang. If the battle situation in Luoyang is favorable, Hanzhong will definitely be able to defend it. Otherwise, he can only give up Hanzhong and retreat to Jingzhou. Not only that, I am afraid that Luoyang will also have to give up." Ailang frowned and looked unwilling. However, Ailang was also very clear that once the situation really developed to that point, he would have to make the decision to give up Jingzhou and even Luoyang even if he was unwilling.

Ailang thought for a moment and said, "When Sun Ce is completely defeated, I will go back to Luoyang immediately!"

At this time, an officer came in quickly and clasped his fists at Ailang and said, "King of Qin, I just received a scout report. Zhurong sent a team to help Sun Ce's troops retreating into the mountains. Sun Ce's troops had already set up camps in the mountains and forests to settle down!"

Ailang was shocked and shouted, "Zhurong's family?!" The officer nodded and said, "That's right!"

Ailang couldn't help but curse, "Damn it! Damn it! Seeing that Sun Ce was about to run out of ammunition and food, she actually sent him to support him!" Lu Meng frowned and said, "In this way, our army will not be able to implement the plan to break Sun Ce first and then seize Guiyang!"

Ailang couldn't help but curse, "Damn! At least they can't take advantage!" He asked Zhang Liao, "Wen Yuan, in the current situation, can the enemy launch a counterattack?" Zhang Liao clasped his fists and said, "They may launch a counterattack. However, with our current strength and arrangement, we can definitely crush any of their attempts!"

Ailang nodded and said, "Okay! I only bring the tiger cavalry back, and all the other troops and heavy equipment are left behind. Wenyuan and Lu Meng, please guard the south for me and don't make any mistakes!" The two of them agreed with their promises. Now, half of these troops in Jingnan were actually transferred from Xiangyang and Huainan not long ago. Ailang's original plan was to completely defeat the enemy in the south, and then lead most of the troops in Jingnan to attack Kuimen to support the battle in the direction of Hanzhong. First, the spirit of Liu Bei was defeated by Liu Bei.

. However, the plan failed to keep up with the changes. Although the battle in Jingnan was progressing smoothly and achieved several great victories, it failed to annihilate the Southern Barbarian army and completely defeat Sun Jian's army as planned. Under the current situation, the Southern Barbarians and Sun Jian's army have already defended together, which is still a huge threat to Jingnan. However, the Qin army has lost the favorable opportunity and it is difficult to complete the strategic goals set in a short time. Therefore, Ailang had to change the original plan and leave almost all the troops in Jingnan to defend, while he himself rushed back to the north to take charge of command.

Early the next morning, Ailang took his personal soldiers and the tiger cavalry on the road, and thousands of people headed north, with the goal of Luoyang in the north.

Shortly after Ailang left, he received an urgent report sent by Zhang Liao. Ailang thought that Sun Jian's army and the Southern Barbarians launched a counterattack, but unexpectedly, when he opened the bamboo slips, he found that it was Zhou Yu's 30,000 troops who were led by Zhou Yu to recapture Yuzhang County unexpectedly! Ailang was surprised and happy, and couldn't help but praise: "Good! Zhou Lang is Zhou Lang after all! This move is extraordinary! In this way, there is nothing to worry about in the south!"

The news of the fall of Yuzhang County was quickly reached by Sun Jian. Sun Jian was shocked and quickly led the army to abandon Guiyang County and retreat to Cangwu in the south. At the same time, he increased troops to various passes in the east to defend Zhou Yu to lead his army to come from the east. Soon after, Sun Ce also received the news that Yuzhang County was lost, and his father led the army to retreat back to Cangwu. However, Sun Ce did not follow his father Sun Jian's order and immediately found a way to escape south, but continued to garrison in the mountains and forests on the west side of Lingling County. This made Zhang Liao and Lu Meng feel as if he was stuck in his throat. He could not mobilize the army to go south to pursue Sun Jian, and could only send a group of thousands of troops to take over Guiyang County that Sun Jian gave up.

Let us temporarily let go of the war in the south, so let us turn our attention to the north.

Ailang and his group headed north. When they arrived in Xiangyang, they received the latest battle report from Luoyang. The defense line on the south bank of the Yellow River was finally broken by the barbarians not long ago. Zhao Zilong immediately led tens of thousands of war cavalry to launch a counterattack soon after some of the enemy troops crossed the Yellow River! A big battle on the south bank of the Yellow River, the Qin army fought against each other under the leadership of Zhao Zilong. The fierce battle lasted for a whole day. The barbarian army crossed the Yellow River was repelled, and the barbarian army temporarily retreated to the north bank of the Yellow River!

Ailang was very happy and kept shouting: "Zhao Zilong is indeed well-known!"

When Ailang arrived in Wancheng, a new battle report came again. While Zhao Zilong repelled the main force of the barbarian army, the Xiongnu Right King led 30,000 Xiongnu cavalry to smuggle the Yellow River in the direction of Wushejin, resulting in the complete collapse of the Qin army's defense line on the south bank. Zhao Yun and Chen Gong had no choice but to withdraw all the troops into Luoyang City. Seeing such a battle report, Ailang couldn't help but feel anxious and immediately accelerated his speed to head north.

A few days later, Ailang and others finally arrived near Luoyang. They immediately stood on the hills and saw a tide of troops outside Luoyang City, and the barbarian army was attacking the city! The sound of war drums rumbling and earth-shaking, and the arrows fired by both sides were overwhelming, and the barbarian troops like ants were constantly rushing towards the city!

Ailang frowned, raised Fang Tian Huaji and shouted: "Brothers, follow me to enter the city!" The officers and soldiers suddenly became excited and shouted. Ailang urged the Red Rabbit Horse, led three thousand tiger cavalry to rush down the hill, and rushed into the barbarian army from behind! The barbarian army was caught off guard, and in a blink of an eye, Ailang and the others rushed into the depths of the army! Ke Bieneng saw this and was shocked and urgently dispatched various teams to siege. The barbarian cavalry turned around to siege Ailang and the others!
Chapter completed!
