Whoosh whoosh!

The ruthless crossbow arrows pierced Han Suibing's body, leaving horrific bloody holes.

Seeing their comrades fall, the surviving Han Sui soldiers were frightened and ran around in panic. Suddenly, Han Sui's army was in chaos.

Xiakou's army slowly pressed forward. Qin Nu took a few steps forward, stopped and fired several rounds, putting great pressure on Han Sui's army.

ah!

Han Suibing collapsed.

The crossbow arrow hit the ground and a huge blood hole appeared on the soldier's body, which frightened the soldiers of Han Sui's army.

Too bloody!

Many soldiers of Han Sui's army could not bear the smell of blood and retreated one after another, and the military formation was instantly broken.

"Hold on! Hold on for me! Don't retreat, press forward. You must withstand the attack of the Xiakou Army."

Han Sui shouted.

But what?

The soldiers of Han Sui's army were so frightened that no one dared to step forward to stop them.

No matter how Han Sui yelled, the soldiers under his banner refused to listen and kept retreating, suddenly bumping into the soldiers in the rear row.

Whoosh whoosh!

Qin Nu kept firing, regardless of what Han Suijun's soldiers were thinking, and fired round after round of crossbow arrows.

He rushed towards Han Sui's army formation.

Puff puff puff!

Another piece fell down.

"Father-in-law, give the order to retreat! If we don't retreat, our soldiers will collapse and the losses will be even greater."

Yan Xing suggested.

Although Han Sui was unwilling to give in, in this situation, he had no choice but to suppress the anger in his heart.

As a scheming soldier, I also knew in my heart that if we didn't give the order to retreat, the 20,000 infantrymen would probably be wiped out.

With no choice.

"Retreat into the city and we will defend the city."

Han Suidao.

After receiving Han Sui's order to retreat, 20,000 cavalry quickly ran into the city, and the confused infantry also fled one after another.

The army is defeated!

Cao Cao saw Han Sui's army retreating, which suddenly turned into a rout, and immediately gave the order.

"The whole army is here, kill them for me, General!"

Cao Cao said.

Le Jin led an infantry division of 15,000 people and rushed towards the retreating Han Sui army, killing a Han Sui soldier off his horse.

Yu Jin did not hesitate and rushed forward with his soldiers and horses.

Boom!

After receiving the order to attack, Xia Houyuan waved his hand and led his 20,000 cavalry division to pursue the retreating Han Sui army.

One by one, Han Sui's soldiers arrived, and one by one died tragically under Xiakou's sword, becoming ghosts one by one.

During the retreat, Han Sui's army's blocking front was instantly broken. Unable to withstand the hunting of Xiakou's army, they all fled into the city.

ah!

Heart-rending screams echoed through the sky.

When Han Sui saw that the retreat turned into a collapse, he suddenly became confused. If the guards around him hadn't forced him to escape into the city, he would have been the victim of Xiakou's saber.

"Close the city gate!"

Han Suidao.

Guchi!

Guchi!

The Golden City Gate was forcibly closed, and many Han Sui soldiers were shouting outside the city.

I feel angry!

Furious!

After the first battle, nearly 10,000 city defenders were lost.

Watching a city defender laying down his weapon and surrendering to the Xiakou army on the battlefield, my heart bleeds.

On the battlefield, more and more city defenders surrendered.

Had it not been for several lines of defense, Han Sui's army would have suffered greater losses.

In less than half an hour, the battle was over.

"Report to General Cao that a total of more than 4,000 Han Sui soldiers were killed and more than 5,000 people were captured. The remaining Han Sui soldiers fled into the city."

Send orders to soldiers.

"Are there any casualties in our troops?"

Cao Cao said.

"General, we have basically no casualties. There are only about 20 soldiers who accidentally fell down and scratched their skin."

Send orders to soldiers.

"Clean the battlefield and bury the bodies."

Cao Cao said.

Since joining the Xiakou Army, after every battle, soldiers have been asked to clean the battlefield and bury corpses.

This is the rule of the Xiakou Army, and Lao Cao gradually adapted to it.

Jincheng City Lord’s Mansion:

"Father-in-law, the Xiakou army is so powerful that it will be difficult for us to defend the city. It is best to escape from the city at night."

Yan Xingdao.

"Yan Ming, Jincheng is my old boss. You can't give up easily. Once you give up, it's hard for those Qiang people to fool you!

Think about it, if the Qiang people find out that I have lost my old job, who will believe that we can defeat the Xiakou Army."

Han Suidao.

"Father-in-law, there are many generals in Cao's army who can fight, and the other side has that catapult called a catapult.

We cannot resist this powerful siege weapon. We will not lose our troops if we leave Jincheng now. With our troops,

There is no need to worry about being surrounded and suppressed. Liangzhou is so big, and the Xiakou Army can't even take advantage of us. If the losses are too big,

If we don’t have soldiers and horses on hand, then it will be very difficult. Those Qiang people may turn around and attach themselves to the Xiakou army again."

Yan Xingdao.

Han Sui knew in his heart that his son-in-law was right.

Tangled!

"Yan Ming, you said that if we surrender to the Xiakou Army now, will Cao Cao accept us?"

Han Suidao.

"My father-in-law, it's hard to say. If my father-in-law intends to surrender, you can send someone to contact Cao Cao."

Yan Xingdao.

"Come here, call Cheng Gongying."

Han Suidao.

Cheng Gongying, whose surname is Chenggong and given name is Ying. He was a native of Jincheng in the late Eastern Han Dynasty. He was a direct confidant of Han Sui. In the middle of the Jian'an year, Han Sui defeated Huayin and returned to Huangzhong. His tribe dispersed, but Cheng Gongying followed him.

After Han Sui died, he surrendered to Cao Cao, was appointed as a military advisor, and was granted the title of Marquis.

"As you command!"

Send orders to soldiers.

"I've met my lord!"

Chenggong Yingdao.

"Gongying, if you go to Cao Cao's barracks at night and contact Cao Cao, what kind of treatment will we get if we surrender to the Xiakou army at this time?"
