On the warship, while Han Shizhong continued to attack and defend with Liu Rengui, he spared some energy to observe the situation on Zhang Shun's side.
Looking at the soldiers who were killed by Zhang Shun, Han Shizhong couldn't help but frown slightly. It is not that there are no fierce generals in the Jin army. Huang Tianxiang, Huang Tianjue, Huang Ming, Zhou Ji, Long Huan, Wu Qian, and Huang Tianlu are all fierce generals. Any one of them is enough to kill Zhang Shun.
But no matter what, none of these people know how to swim! If not, how could Han Shizhong send all of them out to attack Xiaopingjin without leaving even one person beside him.
If he had not continued to command the army in battle, Han Shizhong would have thought of diving into the water to fight Zhang Shun, the white stripe in the waves.
Of course, although Zhang Shun was good at fighting in the water, he was still just an ordinary man and was not taken seriously by Han Shizhong. What really troubled Han Shizhong was that the situation on the battlefield had begun to deteriorate towards a situation that was gradually unfavorable to them.
After all, they were still fighting with 3,000 troops against 6,000 troops. Although Liu Rengui was caught off guard at first, Liu Rengui was not an ordinary person. In the subsequent battles, he used the superiority of troops to eliminate Han Shizhong's previous advantage bit by bit.
"Send the order, the whole army will leave the battlefield and retreat slowly!" Han Shizhong knew that there was no need to continue this water battle. If the fight continues, although Liu Rengui will definitely feel uncomfortable, Han Shizhong will definitely lose.
Just now, Han Shizhong had received news that Huang Tianxiang and the others had successfully captured Xiaopingjin. Therefore, Han Shizhong has achieved his goal in this battle.
This was the first water battle. In the duel between Liu Rengui, Han Shizhong seemed to be at a disadvantage in the end, but in terms of the overall situation, Han Shizhong already had the advantage.
Next, Han Shizhong only needed to defend Xiaopingjin with all his strength and cut off the retreat of the less than 30,000 Cao and Yuan coalition forces in Mengjing Pass.
By then, the retreat from the rear was cut off, and Wang Meng was blocking the way in front, so Cao GUI and the others had no choice but to stick to Mengjin Pass. However, the food and grass in Mengjing Pass had already been burned by Xu Huang sent by Zhang Liao during their retreat, and Cao GUI and the others had no food and grass to slow down.
They could last a few more days with only the food and grass they brought with them when they went on the expedition. When the time comes, Wang Meng will defeat the enemy without fighting.
As for Liu Rengui, looking at Han Shizhong who slowly began to retreat, he did not make the next move easily.
"General, now that the enemy has retreated, our army should support Xiaopingjin as soon as possible!" Zhang Shun, who was covered in water and still naked, reminded Liu Rengui.
"I'm afraid it's too late!" At this time, Liu Rengui shook his head and sighed, "The enemy soldier that fought with our army before was obviously not completely defeated, but it took the initiative to retreat. It must be that the war in Xiaopingjin has already begun. As a result. Even if our army rushes over now, I am afraid that it will be unable to save the day."
Looking in the direction of Xiao Pingjin, Liu Rengui sighed softly again. This battlefield is really changing rapidly. A few days ago, their side had the advantage. As long as they capture Mengjinguan again, hundreds of thousands of troops can open the way to Luoyang.
But today, the situation on the entire battlefield was completely reversed, and Xiao Pingjin changed hands again. Liu Rengui knew that if his predictions were correct, Cao and Cao Gong would probably be in big trouble soon.
Unlike Liu Rengui who was worried about the trend of the entire battlefield, Zhang Shun was now worried about the three Ruan brothers stationed in Xiaopingjin. Although most people in Liangshan have various bad habits, the loyalty between most of them is not fake.
…
"Hahaha, this Han Shizhong is really worthy of his lord's efforts to push him into the position of commander of the navy against all opinions!" Outside Mengjing Pass, Wang Meng, who was stationed here, said with a smile to the generals in the tent.
In recent years, Li Xiang's navy has not developed smoothly. In the early years, although the navy was barely established, there were no suitable navy generals to train and command it, so its combat effectiveness was appallingly low.
The naval force consumes a lot of money just to maintain it every year. After all, warships and armor need to be repaired and updated every year. Therefore, there has always been a voice within Li Xiang's forces to disband this navy army.
If it weren't for Li Xiang's insistence and his own prestige to suppress these opposing voices, I am afraid that this navy army would have been disbanded long ago.
Later, after Han Shizhong was born, his implanted identity was that Li Xiang overcame all objections and directly promoted him from a mere pawn to the position of commander of the navy, responsible for commanding the Jin army's 10,000 navy.
Han Shizhong lived up to expectations. Under his leadership, the navy was completely transformed. Today, Han Shizhong successfully captured Xiaopingjin, allowing the Jin army to truly take the initiative in this battle, and finally allowing the navy to hand in a perfect answer.
"Military advisor, since General Han Shizhong has captured Xiaopingjin, why don't our army attack the city as soon as possible and deal with this enemy force at Mengjinguan as soon as possible!" At this time, I saw a soldier who was nine feet tall and had a face like a sheep. Fatty, with exposed eyes, the young general walked in the shape of a tiger and leopard, wearing a flaming golden crown on his head, a red robe of a dragon on his body, and a chain of golden locks. He took a step forward, bowed his hands, and said to Wang Meng.
Although this general is young, no one in the tent dares to underestimate him. All the generals in the tent had seen Huang Tianhua's pair of eight-edged silver hammers. They naturally knew that although this general was young, his abilities were first-rate.
What's more, their background is not bad either. Huang Tianhua is Jia Xu's nephew. Jia Xu is in Li Xiang's camp. Although he usually keeps a low profile, he is an old man who has been with Li Xiang for nearly ten years. Moreover, whenever Li Xiang goes to war, he always has Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe with him, which is enough to show his trust in him.
"Tianhua, don't be impatient. Mengjin Pass is the most powerful pass in the world. Why should our army forcefully attack it and do such a thankless task?" Wang Meng smiled faintly at the heroic Huang Tianhua, "Instead of losing troops and generals to attack such a strong pass, it is better not to attack such a strong pass. Fight and conquer the enemy's army."
Wang Meng still admires Huang Tianhua, a junior. Although there is no strategy or general talent, this bravery is not fake.
Conquering the world not only requires strategists and commanders to strategize and win decisively thousands of miles away, but also requires powerful generals like Huang Tianhua to charge into battle and capture the flag.
However, what Wang Meng didn't understand was that whether it was Jia Fu, his son, or Huang Tianhua, his nephew, their personalities were very different from that old fox Jia Xu!
