The Battle of Chengde ended with a tragic victory for Liu Mang's army. ¦ç, Liu Mang¡¯s army and the three thousand Chengde defenders killed more than 2,300 people and seriously injured more than 200 people. Less than a hundred people actually survived. More than 800 Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry were also killed, and together with the Xiliang Iron Cavalry, Liu Mang suffered heavy losses. On the opposite side, Xia Houyuan's troops and the Shen Marching Army were completely wiped out, and Wei Yan's red-clothed battalion was also seized by Liu Mang. He used Gan Ning's monarch power to completely send him to hell. The whole Chengde was in a mess, with corpses all over the ground. Liu Mang thought he was already cold-blooded, but from this moment, he still felt a sense of bitterness. Liu Mang had long expected the battle with Cao Cao, but his plan was not to start a war like this. The layout of Jiaozi in front of him had already been unfolded, in order to reduce the blood consumed by the civil war. The five chaos of China is a bloody lesson learned after the Three Kingdoms Wei and Jin Dynasties. "The last general Gan Ning has met His Royal Highness the King of Han!" Gan Ning, who was above the level of monarch, also got off the warship and entered Cheng De. "Xingba!" Liu Mang saw Gan Ning, and Liu Mang's thoughts improved a little. It¡¯s really been a long time since I last saw Gan Ning. "Your Highness!" Gan Ning knelt down and packed his luggage when he saw Liu Mang. "Hey, no need to be polite." Gan Ning is really Liu Mang's number one warrior in the sea. If Liu Mang wants to become a man like the Pirate King, then Gan Ning will be his warship. Liu Mang and Gan Ning hadn¡¯t seen each other for a long time. They talked for a long time, and Chengde City taught Liu Ye over there. Everything in the city needs to be reorganized. Gan Ning told Liu Mang one by one about the interesting things in the sea, the various benefits of Liu Mang's maritime ban, and the customs and customs of other places. For Gan Ning, Liu Mang was really the one who allowed Gan Ning to start over. If it were not for Liu Mang, Gan Ning would probably be just a mere captain of Jingzhou. Not to mention seeing the vast sea now. In the past, I felt that Dahan and Jiuzhou were the whole world, but now Gan Ning only feels that Dahan is just a place. "Xingba. Are you interested in going overseas?" Liu Mang suddenly said. "Ocean?" Even if Gan Ning now has the rank of monarch, he still travels around the coastline, and the farthest he reaches is the Silla generation. "Yuanyang, Xingba, what I taught you was the Han Dynasty's navy, not the coastal fleet!" Liu Mang said to Gan Ning with a smile. "As long as you go wherever Gan Ning goes, that's my big man's territory!" Liu Mang said to Gan Ning. "Everywhere you go is the territory of the Han Dynasty?" Gan Ning's eyes widened. The generals all admired two figures, one was Wei Qing and the other was Huo Qubing. Why are these two people so famous? Because both of them are It was to fight against foreigners, and they also expanded the territory of the Han Dynasty to nearly half. As for Gan Ning, what Wei Qing and Huo Qubing achieved on land was nothing compared to what they achieved on the sea. Not to mention other things, there is a vast land south of Jiaozhou. "But Your Highness, how many Sovereign-class battleships are there!?" Gan Ning asked doubtfully. "That's it. I will ask the captain to work overtime to build the Sovereign Class. By the time you go to sea, there will be at least thirty ships guaranteed!" "Thirty?" Gan Ning was also stunned by Liu Mang's number. There are now three Sovereign class ships. Gan Ning was already overjoyed. What if there were thirty ships? "Thirty battleships. Not all of them are monarch-level!" Liu Mang also shook his head. If you let him come for three to five years, he might be able to get it together, but Liu Mang can't get it right now. "Twelve ships, at least twelve Sovereign-class ships, plus various auxiliary warships, a total of thirty ships. In addition, I will give Ling Chao's Marine Corps a quota of thirty thousand people!" "Thirty ships Fleet, twelve Sovereign-class ships!" Gan Ning was also overjoyed. "Thank you, lord. Thank you, lord. I will definitely live up to my trust." Just as the two were discussing, Zhang Liao came back. "General Zhang Liao, have you ever pursued Wei Yan?" Liu Mang asked Zhang Liao, but Zhang Liao shook his head. Liu Mang's order to Zhang Liao was regardless of life or death, but Wei Yan has not been seen yet, which means that Wei Yan escaped. . "The general is incompetent, please punish him!" Zhang Liao knelt down in front of Liu Mang, "Forget it. Forget it!" Liu Mang shook his head. It was not Zhang Liao's fault that he couldn't catch up. It can only be said that Wei Yan was too cunning. "Wei Yan, Wei Yan, I hope you have escaped back to Cao Jun's camp!" Liu Mang was really afraid of Wei Yan.This suddenly disappeared without a trace. As long as he was still by Cao Cao's side, Liu Mang would have a chance to take revenge. If Wei Yan doesn't die, how can the souls of the Red Clothes Camp rest in peace? If Wei Yan doesn't die, how can the souls of Jushou rest in peace? If Wei Yan doesn't die, how can the 20,000 Yangzhou New Army rest in peace? If Wei Yan doesn't die, how can Chengde rest in peace. "My lord, what about Xia Houyuan and his son?" Liu Mang promised to let Xia Houyuan and his son go as long as they revealed the traces of Wei Yan. But now Wei Yan has not been caught. "Go, let them go!" Liu Mang waved his hand and said. "Let him go?" "The God Marching Army has been destroyed, and Xia Houyuan is useless!" Liu Mang shook his head. It was useless to keep Xia Houyuan, so why not just send him back. "Yes!" "Chengde is fine, but we have to be on guard against Cao Cao and his follow-up troops. Where is Ling Chao!" Liu Mang shouted loudly. "The general is here!" "Ling Chao, you command two thousand marine battalions. They will be stationed in Chengde first to assist Liu Shangshu in preparing Chengde!" "The general is here!" "Zi Yang, go and take those soldiers with you. Craftsmen, go to Xingba's warship and set it up! If nothing can be done, you should immediately blow up everything in Chengde, retreat to the Yingshui River, and return to the Yangtze River, waiting for my news! Chengde Liu Mang can be dispensed with, but the craftsmen in Chengde are absolutely indispensable. "Huh!" Liu Ye nodded. After arrangements have been made for Chengde, Liu Mang will leave Chengde for Lujiang. "Lord, do you want these three monarchs to go there together?" "No!" Liu Mang shook his head. There is already very little direct current in Yingshui where the monarchs go. It will be bad if the boat capsizes in the ditch. . Liu Mang immediately headed towards Lujiang with his Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry. The person in charge of Lujiang is Liu Mang's cheap father-in-law Lu Bu. In the past few days, he has had a good battle with Cao Cao, an old acquaintance. Without Guo Jia, Cao Cao's strategizing was greatly reduced, but as for Lu Bu, because of his improvement in martial arts, his mood also changed, and he was no longer the same person who got angry when Cao Cao hit him. The two of them were completely fighting each other between Cao Cao and Lu Bu. They were really matched up against each other, with each having their own victory or defeat. When they arrived at Hefei, Liu Mang separated from Zhang Liao first. Zhang Liao took his Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to aid Lu Bu, while Liu Mang went directly into Shouchun City. "My lord, are you back?" Xu Shu immediately greeted him. "Thank you for your hard work, Yuan Zhi!" Liu Mang looked at the increasingly haggard Xu Shu with an apologetic expression. "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter!" Xu Shu shook his head. Jushu is dead, Zhuge Liang is away, Lu Su has gone to live with Lu Bu, and the only one in the city who can carry the banner is Xu Shu. "How is the situation in the city? How is Cao Jun doing now?" Liu Mang asked Xu Shu anxiously. "My lord, it has nothing to do with the presence of Marquis Wen in Cao's army. It's just this information, Your Highness, you must read it!" Xu Shu took out a letter and handed it to Liu Mang. Liu Mang opened the letter and was stunned. ¡ In Cao Cao¡¯s camp, Wei Yan escaped back. Cao Cao already knew that Wei Yan¡¯s red camp was completely wiped out, and not even Xia Houyuan and Xia Houba came back. Cheng De is in ruins. Cao Cao's face was gloomy, but then he changed his expression. Looking at Wei Yan who was kneeling on the ground to accept his punishment, Cao Cao still suppressed his anger. After all, without Wei Yan's help, Cao Cao would not have gained the territory he has now. The Yangzhou Army will not be forced until Shouchun is the only one left. So Cao Cao kindly helped Wei Yan up, told Wei Yan that it was okay, and comforted Wei Yan. But this kind of calmness only lasts for a while. "Report! Report to my lord, something bad is going wrong, something is going wrong, Liaodong, Liaodong Huns have marched to seize the pass, and half of Youzhou has fallen into the hands of the Huns!" Xun Yu directly sent an envoy from Liaodong to report Following the information sent by Cao Cao. "What!" "What does Xun Yu do for food! Xiongnu? Where did the Xiongnu come from? Doesn't King Zuo Xian only have more than 100,000 people?" Cao Cao said angrily. "My lord, it's not that Master Xun Yu doesn't send troops, but that Liaodong, Liaodong has not paid food and wages for almost three months, and Master Xun Yu has no troops to send out!" "What?" Good news comes in pairs "Report, Second Young Master , the second son killed the fourth son, in Xudu, he became emperor!" "What!" Cao Cao's eyes widened and he didn't react for a moment.Then, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fainted immediately. "His Royal Highness the King of Wei!" "My lord, my lord!" "Mengde, Mengde!" The entire Cao army was in chaos. (To be continued)
