Chapter 136: The Five Rivers in Jingzhou

So even if it is a dangerous thing, no one never wants to go. Instead, they are eager to try it out because of the reward from their lord. To be honest, even if it is not for anything else, just for this, it is enough to make them rush to the forefront.

After the horse was about to leave the tent of the Central Army, he left the Fei Shi office in Yizhou County. Ma Chao and the others were also a little anxious, hoping that Fei Shi could bring his men to Yutongshan earlier. In this way, when Meng Huo makes a comeback, he will be more confident.

Although the previous decisive battle was won by our side, it was said that "killing one thousand enemies and losing eight hundred themselves" and the Liangzhou army also suffered considerable casualties. Therefore, although there are more than 10,000 more people than the Menghuo Nanbar Army, this number of people is definitely not enough. Therefore, at this time, Fei Shi's men and horses are urgently needed to be added. They are also the Liangzhou army, so there is naturally no problem with this combat power.

Seeing the matter in Yizhou County now, even if it was resolved for the time being, Ma Chao said to everyone: "Everyone, go back and sit down, let's discuss the subsequent war!"

-----------------------------------------------------

Everyone returned to their seats and sat down. Ma Chao said, "Tonight's banquet is held in the tent, don't forget to attend!"

"promise!"

Everyone said in unison that they all knew that this was their lord's victory to celebrate today. After all, it had been so long, and it could be said that this was his first big victory. Before that, they were just small wins, and only this time could be considered a big victory. As for the time when they captured Meng Huo alive, it could not be said to be a big victory, but it achieved its ultimate goal.

Then he heard Ma Chao continue, "Everyone and our soldiers have rested well these days, in case of another battle in the future!"

"No! We will follow the lord's order!"

For everyone, in addition to victory, they also hoped that they could really have a good rest. Although they hadn't had any rest before, to be honest, this was quite different from what they expected.

But now it is different. At least for a while, Meng Huo will never come back, so everyone can rest for a few days.

-----------------------------------------------------

Yes. What better way to get better than having a few days to rest after this great victory. Perhaps it is better that the matter of the Southern Barbarians was solved and everyone went home.

This is also considered human nature. When there is no war, everyone hopes that their lord can take him to the battlefield, especially Cui An, who has such an idea, and he can't stay. As for rest, for him, it's more important to not kill the enemy. Moreover, he never knows what fatigue is, so he doesn't want to rest and just keeps going to war.

But for others, when their lords did not take them to war, they thought when their lords could take them to war.

But they really waited for their lord to take them to war. Over time, they also wanted to live a dull life, be the county magistrate, have a good rest, and leave everything to others to do, as long as they coordinate the overall situation.

-----------------------------------------------------

This can also be said to be the idea of ​​many people. After all, not everyone is Choi On. People like Choi On can only be said to be extremely individual.

Let me put it this way, the vast majority of people still like peace. They want their lords to take them to war, but they just want to follow their lords to fight on the battlefield and make military achievements. They can be promoted to greater officials and receive more rewards in the future.

But when it comes to war, there is actually almost no one like Cui An, who is a militant, and many people are itchy. If everyone in the world is like him, then the world will not be peaceful anymore. So there are still many peaceful people, which is certain.

At least others don’t say it, the people are looking forward to peace and looking forward to the world being unified again, rather than now, they are still a great man on the surface, but in fact they are warlords fighting each other and wars are constantly in chaos. Today, Zhang San defeated Li Si, tomorrow, Li Si went to fight Mazi again, and then Mazi joined forces with Wang Er to fight Zhang San again. The people are already disgusted by this melee, let alone the parties involved.

-----------------------------------------------------

Let’s talk about Xiangyang in Nanjun, Jingzhou. Since Liu Biao passed away from illness, he has changed his flag so many times. Today may still be the military flag of the Liangzhou army, but tomorrow it may become the flag of the Yanzhou army, and the day after tomorrow it will be the troops of the Sun and Liu coalition forces stationed.

Just come and go back and forth, after you finished singing and I came on stage, you said that Xiangyang City should not have any major development, at least during the war, what else do you want to develop? The people are full of complaints, and the city gates may be closed for a month or half, so what else do you want to think about?

The matter of leaving the city can only be solved in half a month. At other times, as long as someone attacks, no one should enter, no one should go out.

In the hearts of the people, this is his mother's war. How much they thought that the war in Jingzhou would end soon, but after fighting for so long, they still haven't heard of it.

-----------------------------------------------------

However, well-informed people have learned a lot. Ma Chao from the Liangzhou Army had to leave because of the Yizhou incident. After learning the news, the people of Jingzhou thought to themselves that a prince had already left, and the war could be resolved this time.

The result is no, it is still far from what they thought. The war in Jingzhou is nothing to end, but no one will fight for the time being.

Originally, when Cao Cao, Sun Ce and Liu Bei knew that Ma Chao had left, they were very happy and knew that this was their great opportunity. Because Liangzhou army without Ma Chao naturally lacked some things, they began to attack again, but the effect was still not good. After all, Guo Jia was not Yi and he was not a person. Both sides were considered a draw, and no one took advantage of it.

As a result, on the same day, Liu Bei received news from Wuling that the leader of Wuxi barbarians, Shamoke, led 50,000 troops and was attacking Wuling. After Liu Bei learned the news, he immediately came out, thinking that why there were barbarians here, he knew about the Wuxi barbarians, but this barbarian seemed to be quite peaceful, but now it is...

-----------------------------------------------------

There is still a gap between what Ma Chao thought, because the first person to receive the news was Liu Bei and Liu Xuande.

Originally, Jingzhou is closest to Yizhou and is next to Yizhou, so the messenger is of course the fastest to Jingzhou. So after receiving the letter written by his lord, Zhang Fei said goodbye to Huang Zhong and set out on the way to Yicheng, Nanjun. As for Ma Liang, he had already received Ma Chao's letter written by himself, so he had been waiting for Zhang Fei. After the two met, they rushed to Wuxi barbarians in Wuling.

The friendship between Ma Liang and Shamoke is indeed good. It should be said that since the previous generation of the Ma family, Ma Liang's father and the leader of the Wuxi barbarians of the previous generation, they have already had a close relationship. So if Ma Liang says, as long as the request is not excessive, Shamoke will basically not refuse.

So when he and Zhang Fei went there, he talked about the military service to Shamoke, and Shamoke nodded straightly. This was a trivial matter. For him, it was just a matter of one sentence.

-----------------------------------------------------

Of course, Ma Liang also gave Wuximan a lot of benefits. Although Shamoke didn't want it, Ma Liang made it clear that this was not given by me, but Liangzhou Army thanked you for yours. So when Shamoke heard it, he understood, so he accepted it. After all, war also consumes supplies. Not to mention anything else, it is food and grass, so you have to prepare three or four times more than usual, so your side will not lose money.

Besides, there is no one who will never die in war. If a person is gone, he will have to give his relatives a pension, which is also indispensable.

So in this way, Shamoke personally led 50,000 troops to attack several cities occupied by Liu Bei in Wuling. In his opinion, there were only a few cities, and there was no need to bring many troops himself. Fifty thousand people were enough, so Liu Bei was in trouble. The 50,000 Wuxi barbarians and horses attacked his city in Wuling, which made him very anxious.

There was not much territory at all, but now from this point of view, I would lose more.

-----------------------------------------------------

There was no way. In the end, Liu Bei, Cao Cao and Sun Ce talked about this and said that he had to go back. Now the war in Jingzhou can only wait until he handles the Wuxi Man's affairs before joining forces to deal with Ma Chao's Liangzhou army.

"Since Xuande has such an important thing, let's go back first. I and General Sun are here, so I think there is no problem!"
