    Twenty miles south of Xinye City is the Jingzhou Military Camp.

    The Chinese military tent.

    "Xidu, according to the detailed reports, Yan Liang's servants have left more than 7,000 people to guard Xinye. It seems that he has been prepared for us."

    Cai Mao sounded worried.

    Kuai Yue disagreed and sneered: "The more troops surnamed Yan keeps in Xinye, the fewer troops and horses will be used to resist Cao Hong. As long as he is defeated by Cao Hong, Xinye will be in chaos. What's the use of keeping more troops?"  ¡±

    Cai Mao nodded slightly, deeply convinced of Kuai Yue's analysis, and his face showed a determination to win.

    "Don't worry, Degui, let's just drink some wine, eat some side dishes, and wait to reap the benefits."

    Kuai Yue smiled and poured a glass of wine for Cai Mao himself.

    The atmosphere in the tent was relaxed, and the two of them chatted over wine, looking confident.

    After a few glasses of wine, the curtains were raised, and a man walked in. It was Yi Ji who was on a mission to Xinye and was returning.

    "Bo Ji is back, how is the result of this mission?" Kuai Yue asked while eating wine without even looking at Yi Ji.

    Yi Ji frowned secretly and said calmly: "I have informed Xu Ziyuan about the matter that I have told you. Xu Ziyuan said that he thanked the lord for his kindness. General Yan on Cao Hong's side will handle it. There is no need for our Jingzhou army to go out."

    "As expected, Xu You is scared." Kuai Yue looked proud.

    Cai Mao next to him said: "Since Xu You said he doesn't need our assistance, what should we do now?"

    "The matter has come to this, no matter what Xu You says, we have stationed our army here to see what Xu You can do." Kuai Yue spoke arrogantly, not taking the other party seriously.

    "Xidu is right." Cai Hao nodded in agreement,

    Seeing that the two of them looked determined to win, Yi Ji was worried.

    After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help but said: "General Yan is a god in using troops, and Xu Ziyuan is very strategic. I think we should not underestimate the enemy."

    Hearing this, Kuai Yue burst into laughter.

    There was no trace of sarcasm in the laughter.

    "Quiet, Kuai, I wonder what is so funny about the official's words?"

    Yi Ji said unhappily that Kuai Yue's arrogance of being a wealthy and famous person made him very uncomfortable.

    Kuai Yue sneered and said: "I did lose to Yan Liang in the previous round, but that was also because of Wen Pin. In the final analysis, Yan Liang was just a warrior abandoned by Mr. Yuan. As for Xu You, although he had a strategy,  But in this situation of internal and external difficulties, there is no way to make a comeback. I laugh, it¡¯s natural that you can¡¯t understand the situation.¡±

    Cai Mao next to him also said: "Xidu's words make sense, Boji. You really think too highly of Yan Liang. He is just a warrior with a humble background. There is nothing to be afraid of."

    Yi Ji has nothing to say.

    Facing these two arrogant Jingxiang wealthy men, Yi Ji knew that he had no say and seemed to have no choice but to bow his head.

    At this moment, a primary school student hurriedly broke into the tent.

    "Farewell Kuai, General Cai, urgent report from the rear, Deng Sai camp was destroyed by Yan Liang, all the food stored in our army was burned, and General Zhang was captured by Yan Liang."

    This series of bad news was like a thunderbolt from the blue, instantly shaking Kuai and Cai to a standstill.

    "You, what did you say, say it again!" Cai Hao couldn't believe his ears, and shouted at the small school principal.

    The junior colonel repeated the information tremblingly. Only then did Kuai and Cai become convinced that their ears had heard it correctly.

    "How is this possible? Yan Liang was clearly fighting Cao Hong in the north of Xinye, so how could he suddenly appear behind us?"

    Cai Hao muttered to himself in horror, with a look of incredible shock.

    Kuai Yue was also full of surprise and didn't know what to say.

    Even Yi Ji, who had respect for Yan Liang, was quite shocked at this moment, wondering how Yan Liang did it.

    At this moment, the scouts from the north brought back the latest information:

    Cao's army was defeated and Cao Hong was captured alive by Yan Liang.

    This second piece of information, like a heavy hammer, hit the hearts of those two people hard.

    "After Yan Liang defeated Cao Hong, he used his cavalry to walk through the mountain trails and penetrate deep into the hinterland of the Han River before he could sneak attack on Deng Sai's grain camp." Yan Liang, suddenly enlightened, couldn't help but say.

    However, Kuai Yue turned pale with shock and said in a trembling voice: "How could Cao Hong's thousands of troops be defeated so quickly? How is it possible? How is this possible"

    If Jingxiang¡¯s chief counselor is like this, thenNot to mention I was so shocked that I couldn't even utter a single word.

    "My officer has long said that Yan Liang is not good at using his troops and should not be underestimated. Now that the food and grass have been wiped out, the morale of the army will soon be unstable. In my opinion, it is better to withdraw to Xiangyang as soon as possible before the morale of the army collapses."

    Yi Ji was the first to regain his composure, and his sentence "Xia Guan told me earlier" was clearly ironic.

    At this time, Kuai Yue was helpless. He knew that Yi Ji's words were ironic, but he was speechless.

    The burning of army rations is the most taboo thing in the army. Not to mention that he only has 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands. Even if he has 100,000 soldiers, Yan Liang will collapse without a fight.

    In desperation, Kuai Yue could only say bitterly: "It won't be too late to deal with Yan Liang in the future. Degui, please quickly order the withdrawal of the troops and return to the south."

    Kuai and Yue had no choice, and Cai Mao had no idea at all. He didn't have time to think too much at the moment and quickly ordered the entire army to immediately move their camps back south.

    ? ######

    "General, tell me how Cai Mao and Kuai Yue would look if they knew about the news that Deng Sai's food was burned."

    Wenpin, who was galloping on horseback, smiled.

    "And what's the expression? It's naturally a bitter look." Yan Liang said disapprovingly.

    "What kind of expression is that, that bitter look" Wenpin muttered to himself, looking confused.

    Yan Liang was startled for a moment, coughed a few times, raised his whip and said: "Okay, let's stop here. The whole army will stop advancing."

    The order was passed, and the five hundred tired cavalry stopped.

    Wenpin looked around at the surrounding terrain. There were wilderness on both sides of the road, and the terrain was extremely open. The only ambush nearby was a few feet high.

    Wenpin said suspiciously: "General, the terrain here is not dangerous enough and it seems not suitable for setting up an ambush. There are several narrow areas twenty miles ahead. Should we"

    Before he finished speaking, Yan Liang shook his head.

    "The soldiers traveled hundreds of miles and fought three battles in a row. Even if they could set up an ambush, they might not be able to defeat the 20,000 enemies."

    Wenpin looked back and saw that each of the soldiers was so tired that they were almost exhausted, and their physical strength was already exhausted. In such a state, it was really not suitable to fight anymore.

    "However, if we set an ambush here, the chance of winning will only be even smaller." Wenpin looked worried.

    Yan Liang raised a sly smile on his lips and asked, "Who said I was going to fight Cai Mao and Kuai Yue?"

    Wenpin's expression became more and more confused, completely unable to reveal Yanliang's intentions.

    Yan Liang's eyes were already on the dense forest on the mountain, and he said loudly: "Quickly bring the hundreds of flags carried by the army into the forest, and distribute them more densely. Just listen to the sound of the war drums, and display them all for me.  "

    Hearing these words, Wenpin suddenly realized, and his eyes of surprise could not help but show admiration.

    ¡ª¡ª¡ª¡ª

    There is another update in the evening, around ten o'clock.
