However, Cai Mao's joy soon turned into confusion. Because the expression on the butler's face in front of him was not the joy of Zhang Yun's return from victory. Instead, his face was covered in cold sweat, and he was as frustrated as his dead parents.
.
Just when Cai Mao was in shock and doubt.
The steward hesitated and said: "Sir, we are defeated. General Zhang's seven-pronged army was defeated."[
"What? All defeated? Where is Zhang Yun? Where is Zhang Yun? Where is Wenpin, and where is Wang Wei? How many defeated troops have been brought back?" Cai Hao felt like a bolt from the blue when he heard this, but Cai Hao is also a very human being after all.
After being in a daze for a moment, he immediately asked.
They were all defeated. Even if all the seven armies were defeated, there should still be defeated armies. After all, there are famous Jingchu generals like Wen Pin and Wang Wei in the army. They are very powerful. They are not drunkards. It is impossible.
All were defeated by Lu Su.
"Yes, they were all defeated. According to intelligence, General Zhang was captured, as were General Wenpin and Wang Wei. None of the generals of the seven armies escaped. The same was true for the soldiers. The entire 42,000-strong army was not dead.
He was captured or escaped." The steward gritted his teeth and said.
This was huge bad news. After the housekeeper received the news, he broke into cold sweat on the spot. Because he was a confidant, he knew very well how Cai Mao expected Lu Su's head.
Now Lu Su's head has not been obtained, but he has fallen into a trap.
What a huge blow this is.
"What?" Cai Hao was stunned on the spot. He felt a roar in his head. The loud noise was countless times stronger than before.
Zhang Yun failed and was captured. The seven-pronged army, with 42,000 elite soldiers, plus two strong generals Wang Wei and Wenpin, all failed.
What is going on? What is going on? Is it correct that the Art of War says that the number of soldiers should not be large, but the number of soldiers? Is Lu Su really difficult to deal with? Is it wrong for him to raise the Seventh Army?
Cai Hao couldn't help but have all kinds of doubts in his heart. Cai Hao was very skeptical about the saying that soldiers are better.
In his view, if a thousand elite soldiers were to fight against an army of 100,000, no matter how capable the soldiers were, there would be no chance of victory.
In other words, with seven armies and 42,000 soldiers, Zhang Yun had absolutely no chance of losing to Lu Su. The chance of winning was 90%.
At least that's what Cai Hao thought. But at this moment, Cai Hao couldn't help but have some doubts about this idea.
Is Lu Su really difficult to deal with? Cai Mao also didn't believe in evil, so he raised the Seventh Army and planned to use Liu Biao's help to eradicate Lu Su.
But now, Cai Mao is a little convinced.
Shouldn't he raise the Seventh Army? To avenge his nephew, that's right. But now instead of taking revenge, he has joined in with a cousin Zhang Yun, 42,000 soldiers, and famous generals Wen Pin and Wang Wei.
Cai Hao also had some doubts about this revenge.
All kinds of doubts turned into strong regrets. Boundless regrets gnawed at Cai Mao's soul.
But then, Cai Mao realized that this moment was not the time to regret. This moment was the time to prepare for the funeral.[
No matter how regretful he was, Cai Mao knew that Lu Su had defeated Jingchu's Seventh Army and if he could successfully surrender half of the troops.
