Xiahou Yuan was beheaded by Zhang Liao on the way to break through, and the huge wound went from the shoulder to the back of the waist, and people couldn't live when they saw it. As soon as Xiahou Yuan died, the soldiers under his command who held out to the last also gave up their escape, some of them put down their swords and surrendered, and the other part fought to the death to avenge their loyal generals, but the result was the same. The remnants of the army without the command of the general were defeated, and they were killed by Zhang Liaobu after a while.

Even those Cao Jun who knelt on the ground and begged for mercy before came to an end, and the full three thousand Cao Jun did not leave a few alive. At this time, no one thought about killing prisoners, although they were now captives who surrendered, but when the Cao army arrived, they would gather into a new army and drive them into battle, and this war was far from over, were they prisoners...... Zhang Liao has the final say.

So Zhang Liao said that they were not captives.

And they died.

Collecting the soldiers and horses, Zhang Liao didn't even count the casualties of his subordinates, so he reorganized his troops and marched eastward, and there were 8,000 soldiers and horses who fought with Cao's army in the east, although he successfully attacked and killed Xiahou Yuan, who fled, but his subordinate generals still can't be underestimated, whether it is Le Jin or Li Dian, Zhang Liao has enough fear!

In addition to the jealousy in his heart, Zhang Liao was more excited, and this battle was basically won from Xiahou Yuan's death. His subordinates scribbly calculated that there should be six thousand or more subordinates, and the reinforcements from Xiangxian County in the east will not be completely wiped out, how many three or four thousand are left, and the two combined troops are still tens of thousands of soldiers and horses.

In this battle, he Zhang Wenyuan will come out on top!

Although the situation was clear, Zhang Liao still did not dare to relax his vigilance in the slightest, and time was extremely short for anyone, because Cao Cao ...... It's on the way.

Marching late at night is not an easy task for any army, and even the northern Yulin cavalry, who specializes in night warfare, can only march in the dark at a speed that is almost moving. The more elite the soldiers and horses, the more expensive they are, not only the Yulin cavalry of Yanbei, but also the tiger and leopard cavalry of Cao Cao, no one will let those most elite heavy cavalry trek through the night, as far as the wartime night march and land grabbing profit are concerned, the simple foot soldiers are faster than the cavalry.

At most, the human legs are broken, and there are manpower that can be recruited everywhere, but if the horse's legs are broken, the war horses with good grades will be scrapped, and they can only be retired to be horses.

Elite cavalry is still elite cavalry without excellent war horses?

Therefore, Zhang Liao didn't know which of the main forces of the Cao army and the Wuhuan cavalry arrived first, and which of their two armies arrived first could determine the victory or defeat of this war, which was not something that Zhang Liao could control. What he can control is the victory or loss of this battle, so: "Pass my generals, cover the east, pursue the enemy army, and defeat them!" ”

With Zhang Liao's order, the heralds ran in the queue to pass on Zhang Liao's order, and then the army passed through the hastily cleaned battlefield and pursued all the way to the east. To the east of them, the battlefield under the cover of night had been advanced twenty miles to the east, and there was no general who led the army in battle who did not understand what it meant to move five miles east in an hour.

"It's been five miles to the east, right? Mancheng, the enemy army is retreating one after another! Le Jin handed the drumstick to the drummer beside him, and said to Li Dian with a ring knife: "In my opinion, in half an hour at most, the enemy will be defeated!" When the time comes, look back and besiege Qiaoxian, and when the siege ordnance arrives, Zhang Liao will be the turtle in the urn, and it's over! ”

On the battlefield, both sides have a deviation in their perception of the situation, just like now, Le Jin and others do not know that Zhang Liao has not entered the city of Qiaoxian from beginning to end, but has been wandering outside. Li Dian nodded when he heard this, and said lightly: "Several captains of this army are fighting on their own, and they can't coordinate with each other, and it will only take a moment to defeat them. General Le, thank you for saving me today! ”

No matter how easy this army is, it is not something that his 3,000 subordinates who were attacked at that time can withstand it, and the other side has 8,000 men and horses, and there are only 2,000 left in the end.

But now, the enemy army that had just almost routed his men was about to be destroyed in an instant.

At this moment, an urgent report suddenly came from behind him, and the frightened and inexplicable sergeant clenched his fists and bowed down, and even trembled in his words, "General, General Xiahou who stayed in Qian County, General Xiahou was beheaded by Zhang Liao!" ”

What the!

"How could General Xiahou be Zhang Liao?" Le Jin was shocked when he heard this, and when his hand reached halfway, he only felt a cold hair explode all over his body, "What the hell is going on!" ”

Even Li Dian, who has always had the air of an elder and is very calm, couldn't help urging the sergeant at this time: "Say it quickly!" ”

"After the two generals led their troops eastward, General Xiahou guarded against Zhang Liao's surprise attack from the city, led the troops to retreat for several miles, and sent the elite soldiers and generals to the front of the formation, and there were all kinds of antlers and wooden fences. The sergeant was obviously frightened, and there were traces of the bloody battle against Liu Qian on his armor, and he hugged his fists and arched his hands: "At the beginning of the battle, the general could still resist, and he slowly retreated to the west while resisting, but Zhang Liao was not in the city at all, he led his troops out of the mountain road in the west, and the inside and outside killed through the formation, and killed General Xiahou who wanted to lead the troops to break through!" ”

"This ...... We. Li Dian's ability in the battle formation is stronger than that of Le Jin, and as soon as the sergeant finished speaking, he had already thought about most of the situation on the battlefield, and turned his head to Le Jin and said, "We have won the plan!" ”

Zhang Wenyuan, so cunning!

Le Jin was a little unacceptable, patted his thigh with his hand and muttered: "This shouldn't be, we have walked all the way from west to east, and we have never seen Zhang Liao's trace, how could he jump out from behind?" ”

This is what Le Jin doesn't understand, obviously they and Zhang Liao are walking in the opposite direction, even if they don't bump into one place, they shouldn't come out from behind!

Le Jin was still thinking about how Zhang Liao jumped out from behind him, but Li Dian had already walked quickly to the sergeant's side and asked, "General Xiahou's subordinates have been defeated by the whole army at the moment?" ”

"There was no rout, all the three thousand sergeants were killed by Zhang Liao!"

"Then where is Zhang Liao now?"

As soon as Li Dian's words fell, there were scouts in the west who rushed to the horse and said loudly: "General, the big thing is not good, Zhang Wenyuan led the troops to the east to kill!" ”

There is no need to be shocked, this time Li Dian and Le Jin reacted faster than the other, "Quickly give the order, the soldiers and horses withdraw from the east, retreat to the north, retreat to the north!" ”

It doesn't matter if they are in a hurry, but there are not many directions left for them to retreat at this time, and further south is Liu Bei's Runan County boundary, and only by going north can they get a glimmer of life. As the army slowly withdrew from the battle array, thousands of soldiers and horses swept north, and not long after they left, Zhang Liaobu, who was rolling in smoke and dust, had already led the army to arrive, and then walked north without hesitation!
