After Ma Teng received Liu Yu's letter, he quickly launched an attack on Bingzhou. At the beginning, Ma Teng's attack went smoothly and it could be said that he was unstoppable, but not long after, the battle fell into a stalemate.

Liu Yu looked at the military newspaper in front of him, a thoughtful look on his face.

Judging from Gao Gan's defensive formation, deep trenches and solid fortifications were used to defend the area, and this response was precisely to restrain Ma Teng's cavalry.

Liu Yu was a little worried and asked slowly: "If the situation continues to develop like this, it won't be long before Ma Teng's food and grass are running out. Once Ma Teng retreats, Bingzhou will be able to free up its hands to deal with us."

Guo Jia said: "My lord, don't worry. Once the two armies engage, Ma Teng will not retreat easily. After all, the position of Liangzhou Mu is quite tempting to Ma Teng.

If his attack on Shangjun fails, the war will naturally move to Hexi.

For our plan, whether Ma Teng can capture Bingzhou is not important to us. As long as we can plunge Bingzhou into a quagmire and prevent it from freeing up troops to attack Jizhou, we will have succeeded.

Judging from this battle report, Yuan Tan also had a small-scale conflict with Ma Teng. It is obvious that Yuan Tan was conserving his strength. As soon as the two armies came into contact, Yuan Tan ordered all his soldiers to retreat.

But Ma Teng didn't seem to intend to let him go. There was a cavalry unit cruising near him, obviously wanting to defeat him.

Bingzhou is now in a state of chaos, and no one can stay out of this chaos. I even see the shadow of Han Sui in it. "

"Fengxiao refers to the tactics of the Gaogan Army?"

"Yes, judging from the speed of the senior officials' response, it is very likely that Han Sui was behind this."

Liu Yu nodded and said slowly: "Wenhe is right. Han Sui will never remain indifferent."

Guo Jia said: "My lord, the food and grass provided by the Zhen family have been transported to Jiujiang one after another. The army has been resting for a month. I think the time to send troops has come."

"Feng Xiao, if this matter wants to be foolproof, we need to wait for someone else."

"My lord, now almost all the civil officials and military generals have gathered in Yecheng. Who else do you want to wait for?"

"Hua Tuo."

Guo Jia was touched and tried to adjust his mood. He slowly said, "My lord, don't worry about my illness. Jiangdong will be conquered within three months. My illness will last for three months. It won't be a problem at all."

Guo Jia was very optimistic about the battle in Jiangdong. How could he not return with a great victory when he led his victorious army to Jiangdong?

Liu Yu said: "In my heart, the pacification of Jiangdong is certainly important, but Fengxiao's health is also important. If Hua Tuo cannot go with the army, I will always be worried."

"Hua Tuo is a doctor who has no fixed place to live. It is like looking for a needle in a haystack to find him. If I miss the chance to fight because of this incident, I will die with regret."

Guo Jia was very emotional and started coughing violently. After a long time, the coughing sound slowly stopped.

Guo Jia's face was flushed and his eyes were bloodshot.

Liu Yu felt a little distressed, fearing that he would get excited, so he comforted him, "Fengxiao, we asked Hua Tuo to come here not just for your condition. Most of us soldiers are from the north. If we rashly go to the south of the Yangtze River, if the climate is not suitable, it will be easy to lose our lives. In serious cases, there may be plague.

If this happens, our combat power will be greatly reduced. At that time, we will collapse without Jiangdong sending troops."

Guo Jia knew that Liu Yu was trying to comfort him, and he was even more touched.

In his opinion, the northerners who marched south were at most not good at naval battles, and as for the plague, the probability of its occurrence was extremely low as long as proper protection was taken.

He didn't want to go against Liu Yu's love and care, so he began to change the subject.

"Is there any news about Hua Tuo now?"

"According to the latest news, he was last seen in Luoyang. A few days ago, I sent Xu Chu to Luoyang. If everything goes well, he should be able to reach Yecheng in the next few days."

Guo Jia was a little worried. If everything went well, it would still take a few days. If not, the day for sending troops to Jiangdong would be postponed again and again.

He wanted to persuade him again, but he saw that Liu Yu's eyes were firm and there was no sign of changing his mind.

He couldn't help feeling a little annoyed. He was certainly not annoyed at Liu Yu, but at his own health, which held back the army's march south. If he were in good health, he might have already deployed his troops on the Yangtze River by now.

Fortunately, Guo Jia's regret did not last long. Two days later, Xu Chu brought Hua Tuo to Yecheng.

Liu Yu hurriedly welcomed Hua Tuo in, bowed to him and said, "Please forgive me for disturbing your medical practice and making you travel all the way.

This time, I invited you to come here, in addition to seeing Feng Xiao, I also have another reason not to invite you."

Hua Tuo laughed and said, "Uncle Liu, you don't need to say anything. On the way here, General Xu has already told me that I am willing to go with the army to treat the soldiers."

Liu Yu was worried that Hua Tuo would object, but he agreed before he even opened his mouth.

This was beyond Liu Yu's expectations. He did not dare to be negligent and quickly bowed to express his gratitude.

"It is a great honor for the soldiers that you are willing to accompany us. Countless soldiers will be saved because of you. I would like to thank you for saving their lives on their behalf."

Hua Tuo waved his hand, returned the greeting and said: "The way I follow is a minor one. Even if I exhaust my old bones, how many people can I save?

As long as Liu Bei can revive the Han Dynasty, millions of people in this world will be saved. This is the way to save the country and the people.

For such a great path, I am willing to exhaust all my energy and work until death.

Uncle Huang, just remember that after the chaos ends, you must ensure that the people live in peace and no longer suffer from the pain of war."

Hua Tuo practiced medicine everywhere and was accustomed to the chaos in the world.

During the rescue process, he felt more and more that his strength was weakening. The number of bones on the roadside did not decrease despite his running around.

There are still starving people everywhere and corpses floating everywhere.

For a moment, his eyes were no longer firm, and he didn't understand when everything would change.

It was not until he arrived in Luoyang City that he was shocked by what he saw.

The people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone has a happy look on their face.

There are no more corpses on the roadside, but working people.

At this moment, Hua Tuo finally found the answer in his heart.

The best doctor is to end the war as soon as possible and bring peace and prosperity to the people.

In this era, the person who has the greatest hope of achieving all this is undoubtedly Uncle Liu.

So when he met Xu Chu coming to find him, he came to Yecheng without hesitation.

"I will definitely keep in mind what you said, sir. It is my life's ambition to ensure that the people live in peace. Please do not doubt me."

"The emperor's uncle is known for his kindness and righteousness. I have no doubt about this matter. Where is Fengxiao now? Let me treat him first."
