Chapter 358 Aftermath
What happened in Shangyong County gradually spread, and gradually spread throughout the world, which once again increased Zhang Fei's prestige.

Cao Cao, who was still hesitant and waiting for an opportunity to attack the enemy again, did not stick to his previous strategy. Instead, he chose to leave a general with Tongguan as the boundary to guard the [-] troops, and the rest gradually retreated.

This general was none other than Xiahou Dun, who had fought with Zhang Fei and Guan Yu during this war and was the head of the three commanders of Cao Cao's camp!
Cao Cao thought about leaving Xiahou Dun for a long time.

After thinking about it for a long time, I found that only this general was more suitable in all aspects.

The lieutenants assisting Xiahou Dun were none other than Le Jin and Wen Yuan.

These people have lost for a while, but it doesn't mean they don't have the power to fight. Even Guan Yu and Zhang Fei used all their strength to win, and that was after dozens of rounds. It is really not that easy to pass the defense line guarded by these people!

The number of 6 horses was also a figure that Cao Cao had calculated for a long time and had discussed with Xiahou Dun and others for a long time. There were many but not many people, and they were all elites.After leaving these troops behind, Cao Cao led all the civil and military personnel to Xuchang.

If Cao Cao ever had the idea of ​​moving the capital before, after Chang'an was taken away, his idea really became stronger and stronger.

"No matter what the situation is, you won't have much time in the future. As long as I'm still alive, I will definitely take back Chang'an, and my successor must also put getting back Chang'an as the first task!" What Cao Cao said in front of all the civil and military people also let everyone see Cao Cao's determination. He is not willing to leave Chang'an behind. return!
-
"Haha, our Chang'an has been saved for the time being!" Liu Bei and the others rejoiced after receiving the news. A big step forward.

Although Jingzhou was lost, under the concerted efforts of everyone, this Northern Expedition finally completely reversed the unfavorable situation that Liu Bei's forces were about to be compressed in Yizhou, as if they had abandoned Jingzhou in exchange for Yongzhou and Liangzhou!
Although Jingzhou has a superior geographical location and has many talents and rich people, the geographical location and symbolic meaning of Yongzhou and Liangzhou are not bad at all!
"Owning Chang'an, there are so many operations we can do next!" Pang Tong couldn't stop smiling, and Xu Shu, who had never smiled very much beside him, also had the same expression at this moment!
This is not a time when the situation in the world is unclear, but a time when the situation in the world is already obvious. Any slightest victory or defeat may have a certain impact on the final result.

No one in the world can directly judge the next situation, and any of the three forces in the world may succeed.

But one thing, everyone has noticed that Liu Bei and Cao Cao have indeed begun to lose their energy as before, and they have inevitably begun to enter their twilight years.

"Cao Cao's strength is still there, and his sons are all very talented, both civil and military, enough to inherit the great cause. Now it is too hasty to say that they will lose. After all, single-handedly does not mean fighting!"

"Liu Bei lost Jingzhou, but now he has won Yongzhou. It can be said that he has completely walked out of Yizhou and embarked on the road of Gaozu. This kind of road is a rare road. It is hard to say whether he can make it to the end!"

"The first two look strong now, but one thing is undeniable. They are already old compared to Sun Quan! Sun Quan is like the rising sun. He is now developing the south, and his strength is not inferior to that of Cao Liu, although his character has been complained about. , but everyone knows that he never suffers!"

There are all kinds of arguments in support of the three people, but no one can convince anyone else because each has their own reasons and truths.

"It's not too much to say now, the winner is king, let's talk about the record. At this stage, has Liu Bei's forces not lost once? They have always been in an offensive position, and the occasional defense is like this time against Sun Quan. It seems that Liu Bei's side just returned to aid Zhang Fei, and defeated Sun Quan's land army, and the waterway did not go deep. Among the mountains and rivers in Zhongshu, the so-called strongest navy did not take much advantage. , In the end, he could only lose troops and generals, and then retreat. Didn’t Cao Cao also lose Chang’an and lose control of Yongliang?”

"Yes, the winner is king!"
-
Everyone has a way to explain the various victories and defeats in the world, but there is one thing that everyone suddenly cannot ignore, that is, Liu Bei is indeed the kind of person who seems to have the greatest potential, and has fulfilled his potential, and seems to be the most lucky to dominate the world.

The smell of war everywhere gradually dissipated, and at certain moments, some people even felt that they had entered a relatively peaceful era.

But this is just the appearance, the place where the various forces meet, there are still many soldiers who are constantly patrolling and restraining themselves from attacking. This is the most terrifying thing.

We all know that this kind of moment will not last for too long, but there is a tacit understanding that they did not create more friction, but chose a moment of balance.

"There is a saying in the rivers and lakes that crouching dragons and phoenixes can make the world safe. This sentence is really not false. At the beginning, Liu Bei would not be able to close Zhang, and there were no advisers. After Guan Zhang, he soon owned half of the whole country. , and now it has the potential to sweep the world, this is a terrible thing." There are people in the field who sit and watch the world's major events, and finally come to the conclusion that this is the case.

"It depends on who can break the deadlock. Some outsiders have appeared, but judging from the current situation, these people are very strong and dangerous. They are already people who can control the situation in the world. But have you thought of one thing, the relationship between these people So they choose to hide from the world, and there is no other reason, to put it in an extreme word, many of them are people who have no ambitions in this world!"

"It's true. What time has given them is not only the extraordinary skills and experience in front of them, but also makes them lose something. They think they can replace the way of heaven, but in fact they are just people who are looking for the way!" Walking on the road to Hanzhong Zhang Fei said to the people on the side.

"What the hell is Tao?"

"The Tao can be Tao, it's very Tao, and it doesn't make sense. Some things are just like that!" Zhang Fei said with a smile.

"Hey, every martial arts practitioner is looking for this so-called Dao, but there are only a few who find it. This is too scary. There is no simple statement that can summarize everything! Maybe it's me who is in a good mood. To be able to eat fish is one's own way, and to be able to fulfill this simple wish is also the way."
