Chapter 1091: Returning with a fiasco

Hearing Wang Qi's loud shout, Wei Qi's face changed greatly, and he stepped forward and said, "Wang Tingshi, what happened, it turned out to be like this?" ”

Wang Ji looked indescribable, but at this moment, this is not the place to speak, he had to say: "We have been tricked, this battle of Liangxiang is a trap for Cao Liang, Gong Taishou and Liu Taishou have been killed, and the state came to seize the city, Wei Dudu should hurry up to the city to defend." ”

Wei Qian heard that Gong Zun and Liu Mao were killed, he couldn't help but be horrified, this battle, the Youzhou army was really defeated and returned, he hurriedly ordered his troops to enter the city, climb the city wall to defend, in order to prevent the state army from coming to rob the city, but also set up a large number of horses outside the city gate, leaving only a passage for the remnants of the Youzhou army to flee back to the city.

The whole Youzhou City is ready to fight, such as facing a great enemy, this time Wang Ji was defeated and returned, which suddenly made the air in Youzhou City become tense, no one knows whether the state army will take advantage of the situation to attack the city, with the current chaotic situation in Youzhou City, the city is worried.

The current Youzhou City, is indeed not ready to defend the city, Wang Qi this battle, full of ambition, full of confidence, but unexpectedly returned with a feather, and the troops who were originally responsible for defending the city, all assembled, ready to go out of the city to meet Wang Qi, at this time suddenly blocked back, it must be a big disorder, in a hurry to go to the city to defend, how can you be fully prepared for battle?

Wei Qian couldn't help but feel deeply worried, before the military affairs of Youzhou, he relied too much on Wang Ji, everything was decided by Wang Qi, including this battle, Wang Qi was the first to come out in advance, I was expecting to boost the morale of the Youzhou army with this big victory, but I didn't expect it to be a big defeat, and he also folded Gong Zun and Liu Mao, two generals, you must know that Wei Qian can rely on not many people now, Gong Zun and Liu Mao's death, if you lose your right hand, the situation in Youzhou may have become worse and can't be worse.

Wei Qian climbed the city tower and looked south, the south of Jixian County, but the boundless plain, and the cavalry of the state army, was already roaring, like a monstrous wave, sweeping everything, those who fell behind, too late to escape The Youzhou soldiers were like a lonely boat in the vast ocean, and they were swallowed up by the stormy waves in an instant.

Wang Qi also climbed to the head of the city, before the confrontation with the state army, only knew that the state army was extremely powerful, his army was not an opponent at all, he could only flee in the wilderness, this time standing on the head of the city, the perspective is different, and he can see the power of the state army more intuitively, such a powerful cavalry, who in the world can stop it?

At the same time, Wang Ji was also secretly lucky, fortunately he saw that the situation was not good, and retreated early, otherwise, he would probably end up with Gongzun Liu Mao and die tragically in the chaos of the army, and the torrent of iron cavalry of the state army is indeed unstoppable.

Wen Qin rode first, and he had already killed the city of Youzhou, but he did not easily enter the range of the defenders' bows and arrows, the task of the Xiao cavalry battalion has been successfully completed, and it is not the responsibility of the Xiao cavalry battalion to attack the city, not to mention that the defenders have been prepared at this moment, and the Xiao cavalry battalion rushed up rashly, but it was just to increase casualties.

So Wen Qin ordered the cavalry battalion to suspend the attack, and soon Deng Ai and Shi Bao also caught up, this way of pursuit, and the state army is a lot of gains, annihilated a lot of Youzhou army, but in the face of the strong and tall Jixian city wall, the three of them do not have the idea of robbing the city, the cavalry troops are only the king of the field after all, and the siege is not their strong point.

The state army came like a rising tide, the mountains roared and the tsunami, the momentum was pressing, and it went like a low tide, and in an instant, it was clean.

Seeing the retreat of the Bingzhou army, Wei Qian and Wang Qi were secretly relieved, the pressure brought to them by the Bingzhou army was too great, if the Bingzhou army took advantage of the situation to attack the city, with their chaotic defense now, whether Youzhou City could be kept is really hanging.

But fortunately, the Bingzhou army only pursued their defeated soldiers all the way, and there was no attempt to attack the city, so Youzhou City was still safe for the time being.

But this kind of security is only temporary after all, the cavalry team of the Bingzhou army does not attack the city, it does not mean that the Bingzhou army will not attack the city, and when Cao Liang leads the Bingzhou army to the cavalry, I am afraid it will be their end.

Wang Ji counted the number of people, his face suddenly turned pale, this battle, he brought a total of 30,000 cavalry, and in the end, only 10,000 people were left, that is to say, this time in the battle, the Youzhou army lost at least nearly 20,000 people, three stops and two stops, this loss is a bit big.

In the chaos of the battle, Wang Ji couldn't figure out how many men and horses were lost, according to his estimates, I am afraid it would be close to half, if he really lost half of the men and horses, it would be enough for him to have a pain, but now after counting, he found that the loss was more than he expected, Wang Ji couldn't help but lament, this battle was really defeated!

The men and horses led by Gong Zun and Liu Mao were first attacked by the Bingzhou army, so these two armies were almost wiped out, and there were not many survivors, even Gong Zun and Liu Mao were both killed, which shows how tragic the battle was at that time.

Wang Ji saw that the situation was not good and fled quickly, but despite this, nearly half of the men and horses were lost, and the combat power of the state army was not only terrifying, but also the speed was unattainable, if it were not for the men and horses behind to back Wang Ji and their backs, more than 10,000 people might not be able to escape back.

Thinking about the battle situation at that time, Wang Ji still had palpitations, if he hadn't judged the situation and retreated decisively, he was afraid that it would be possible for the whole army to be destroyed.

Wang Qi has experienced a hundred battles, such a fiasco is the first time to fight, and more importantly, Liangxiang has lost so many soldiers and horses in this battle, and the losses are so heavy, and then the state army will attack again, how can they deal with it?

Although the city of Jixian County is tall enough, and the grain and grass reserves are worry-free for the time being, the key is that Jixian County is only a lonely city, and the lonely city cannot be defended, which is the minimum principle of the art of war.

Originally, Wang Qi was counting on a big victory to boost the morale of the Youzhou army, but this time it was good, and he returned with a fiasco, and the morale was not mentioned, but it was even more sluggish, and the loss of more than 20,000 people was the elite main force, which made the defense of Youzhou City much thinner.
