The battle report of the Lingling battle spread quickly throughout the Jingxiang land like a violent storm.

For the Wu army stationed in Yiyang.

The defeat in this battle undoubtedly made matters worse.

Waves of panic are quietly spreading among the army...

It should be noted that this battle was initiated by the Wu Army, but now the main force of our own side suffered a heavy defeat, and the enemy army faced was not the main force of the Jingzhou Army.

How could this not damage the morale of his army?

On the other hand, the Jingzhou Army, which was stationing troops on the north bank of the Zishui River, could not help but express joy in their faces at this moment, and their military morale was greatly encouraged.

Between the big tents.

The coach Guan Yu slowly read the battle report, with a bright smile on his red cheeks, and twirled his beautiful beard on his chin. After a while, he smiled and said to Guan Ping who was waiting at the side:

"Ping'er, A Tong's tens of thousands of troops have designed and defeated the tens of thousands of Jiangdong's main force led by Wuxia Amen in Lingling."

"You are several years older than me, so you have to work hard!"

As soon as this statement came out.

Guan Yu's earnest words also revealed a certain sternness.

As the eldest son of Guan Ping, Guan Yu naturally had extremely high expectations for him.

This is also the reason why he has taken him with him to cultivate and teach him carefully in every battle he encountered over the past few years.

Looking carefully at Zhao Tong's plan for this battle to win with less, it naturally aroused Guan Ping's inner desire to fight, so he immediately handed over his hand and asked for battle:

"Commander Father, this time my son is willing to be the vanguard and take one of his troops to cross the river and attack the Wu army's headquarters."

In one word.

Seeing Guan Ping's resolute expression, Guan Yu was naturally relieved and said solemnly: "The opportunity to kill the enemy and make meritorious deeds is definitely inevitable!"

"However, we still have to wait for instructions from Chengdu."

"If eldest brother orders a counterattack, then our army can ignore the covenant and let go and fight the Jiangdong rats."

As soon as he said this, Guan Yu squinted his red phoenix eyes and said in a deep voice.

"Father, since Sun Quan was the first to break the contract and go to war, why do our troops still need to ask for instructions from the uncle?"

"Ping'er, my father has always taught you not to only focus on improving your bravery, but also not to neglect the study of military tactics and tactics. How come you still haven't made any progress?"

At this moment, Guan Yu's face turned solemn, showing an extremely serious expression, and his face was quite annoyed.

"Cao's army is currently stationing troops in Xiangyang and Fancheng. Once our army and Wu's army come to blows, wouldn't it give Cao's army an opportunity to take advantage of it?"

"In my father's opinion, this matter must be resolved through diplomatic means."

Next, Guan Yu continued to give him guidance.

"Oh, I understand, kid."

After saying that, Guan Ping thought for a long time, and then he raised his hands and asked: "Father, A Tong has a great victory over Lü Meng. Will he then raise his troops to attack in a large scale so as not to give him a chance to breathe?"

"This is extremely possible!"

After hearing this, Guan Yu pondered for a while and then said: "Currently, Atong has two choices. If safety is the priority, he should lead his troops north along Lingling and come to encircle Lu Su's troops on the other side with us.

.”

"However, with Atong's temperament, he will most likely choose to take advantage of the victory and pursue it."

"Ping'er, next you lead a team to conduct a reconnaissance along the coast to see if there are shoals that are conducive to the army crossing the river."

"Here!"

As the father and son were talking.

Yizhou Prefecture Governance.

Chengdu, General Zuo's Mansion.

It has been extremely lively these past few days.

Continuous military reports quickly reached the government.

First, Chen Dao led the Bai'er soldiers back from Jianwei County.

"My lord, according to secret investigations in recent days, A Tong's strategic plan has been extremely clear since he led his troops to march south."

"He first ordered locals Li Hui and Ma Zhong who were familiar with the local mountains and terrain to send a partial army to contain Yong Kai, Zhu Bao and other rebel forces. He himself was the main pro-reunion force to cross the mountain road, hide his whereabouts and gallop westward..."

Immediately afterwards, Chen Dao faithfully attacked Zhao Tong as far as the line of Beishui and then stopped, setting up camp and deliberately waiting for Gaoding, the king of Yuejunyi, to gather all the troops and report the battles that were to be wiped out before his foothold was stable.

"My lord, A Tong's commanding side has already begun to show its strength!"

The words are over.

At this moment, even Chen Dao couldn't help but praise Zhao Tong repeatedly.

"Uncle Zhi, according to what you said, Atong is indeed a malleable talent!"

"Zilong's teachings are very good, haha!"

After saying these words, Liu Bei's face suddenly showed a look of laughter.

In the future, both myself and the general generation will gradually grow old.

There is also a successor.

It didn't take long for Chen to return.

The good news written by Zhao Tong was also sent back to Chengdu.

After carefully reading what was said in the book, Liu Bei's face was filled with deep joy.

After a while, he immediately summoned Zhuge Liang, Pang Tong, and Fa Zheng.

Waiting for everyone to arrive one by one.

Liu Bei just smiled and informed everyone of the good news that Nanzhong had been leveled.

"Oh? Atong has already pacified the Nanzhong counties?"

"It's only been half a year!"

As soon as he said this, Pang Tong couldn't help but show surprise.

Even though he recommended Zhao to lead his troops to conquer the south, he did not expect that he would be able to pacify the south central area so quickly.

After all, the territory of Nanzhong is vast, and the barbarian tribes in the counties are countless.

Beforehand, who would have thought that Zhao Tong, who was only a weakling in age, could be so sophisticated, using a strategy of both kindness and power to quickly defeat the rebels, and then use a gentle policy to capture and control Meng Huo completely.

He groaned for a long time.

Zhuge Liang couldn't help waving his feather fan at this time, and said in a deep voice: "Looking at Liang, A Tong's current performance is not just a good general!"

"He can adopt different strategies to deal with it according to the actual situation of the counties in Nanzhong."

"Based on comprehensive evaluation from all aspects, Atong is capable of governing well, and he also has the talents of keeping the people at home and serving as an official. What he lacks now is his lack of qualifications!"

"If you can practice for more than ten years, your achievements will definitely not be inferior to General Guan Yunchang."

These words were revealed.

Pang Tong and Fazheng couldn't help but look at Zhuge Liang standing aside with a strange look.

Seeing this, Zhuge Liang was also a little confused and said: "Shi Yuan, Xiao Zhi, what are you two?"

The voice fell.

Pang Tong responded with a smile: "Kong Ming, this seems to be the first time you have given such high praise to a younger generation, right?"

Pang Tong said, Liu Bei nodded and agreed.

Who is Guan Yu?

This is currently the only general in the army who has the ability to oversee important military and political matters.

But he mentioned that Zhao Tong could actually look down upon him in the future, how could it not be shocking!

only.

Rather than being shocked, Liu Bei felt more joy.

After all, their generation is getting old after all.

"Liang, isn't this also based on Atong's performance in the Southern Expedition?"

For a time, as Nanzhong was pacified, everyone was talking and laughing.
Chapter completed!
