Some of the defeated soldiers were shot dead on the spot, while others were injured and fell there wailing.
Liu Yin seemed oblivious to this and shouted sternly: "Hurry around and go to the back of the city. Someone will be there to help you. If you wait for the thieves to arrive, you will be setting yourself up for death! Don't make a mistake!"
The defeated soldiers in front of the camp looked at each other in shock. In front of the closed entrance of the camp, under the threat of strong bows and crossbows, some people finally moved and began to disperse to both sides.
Someone came running from behind. Unable to stop their pace, they passed the warning position and saw another hail of arrows on the wall of the village.
The crossbowmen on the wall had their first experience, but the second time they had fewer psychological barriers.
The defeated soldiers finally gave up.
Although the threat of the defeated army was eliminated, Liu Yin was still sweating faintly on his forehead. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance. There were more and more defeated troops behind him, and there was no complete organization at all.
This made him very worried, which showed that Ma Su had indeed been defeated.
Moreover, Cao Cao's thieves obviously did not intend to capture the troops. They simply drove the defeated troops deliberately along the way in an attempt to attack his camp.
Ma Su was among the broken soldiers, with his hair disheveled and barefoot. He saw from a distance that the gates of the street pavilion were closed, and a crossbow was drawn on the wall. A look of shame appeared on his face. He covered his face with his sleeves and lowered his head to follow.
The defeated soldiers continued to run towards the back of the camp.
Liu Yin stood on the wall of the wall, watching the defeated soldiers below gradually divide into two groups and go around the two sides of the wall. His face did not look relaxed at all, but gradually turned livid.
His gaze fell to the south from time to time.
Sure enough, when Cao Cao's sentry rider finally appeared in the west, the sentry who went to the south to investigate the news also came back with news: Cao Cao's thief appeared in the south from the direction of Qingshui County, Guangwei, and was running towards the street pavilion.
Liu Yin nodded, expressionless: "I understand."
He looked to the west again, and saw countless dark shadows looming out from behind the mountain in the distance. He smiled bitterly and said, "This cooperation is really close!"
If he was just facing Zhang He, Liu Yin would not be afraid even if there were twice as many people as him.
After all, it's not like he has done nothing during the past few days at the street pavilion.
The key point is that the street pavilion was originally mainly used to prevent Cao thieves from the south, not from the rear.
Now that the unexpected Cao thieves are coming from the west, how can there be any reason for the expected Cao thieves from the south to remain unmoved?
The worst case scenario finally occurred.
The Cao thieves from the south obviously came through the Weishui River Valley, and it was even possible that they had agreed on a date with Zhang He, or that after Lueyang was breached, Lueyang and Qingshui had already established contact.
They did not go to support Shanggui. They would rather risk losing Shanggui and come to the street pavilion to attack them.
The Cao and thieves on both sides surrounded them. There were not nearly ten thousand, but at least seven or eight thousand people. How long could I hold these two thousand men?
Thinking of this, Liu Yin let out a long sigh, "The enemy can cooperate and move, but our generals are at odds with each other. How can we be invincible? All Yin has to do is die to serve his country."
The only chance of survival now is to see whether Jieting and Longguan of the Han Dynasty fall first, or whether General Wu defeats Shanggui and Linwei of Cao Cao.
If Jieting and Longguan are lost first, then Cao's army of thieves can continuously enter Longyou from Guanlong Avenue, and the Han Dynasty will have no choice but to retreat to Qishan.
In this battle, not only Jieting but also Longguan's 20,000 men and horses were wiped out. Even Zhao Guang, who was far away in Anding, had no way to retreat.
If Shanggui and Linwei were defeated first, not only would the Cao thieves who besieged Jieting be annihilated, but Longyou would also be completely returned to the control of the Han. From then on, the Han would have a huge advantage over Guanzhong.
Those who win Guanzhong will win the world and revive the Han Dynasty. This is no lie.
However, the horse is a common man...
Liu Yin gritted his teeth, veins popped up on the back of his hands, and finally couldn't help but draw his sword again and slashed into the walled city. If this person were in front of him, he would have wanted to split him into two pieces!
"General, thirty miles ahead is the street pavilion."
The closer to the street pavilion, the more sentinels of Cao's army running back and forth.
Zhang He looked relaxed and comfortable. He glanced ahead and asked with a smile, "How is the defense of the street pavilion? Can we go down with a drum?"
He couldn't help but feel uncomfortable. He came up to Long this time, defeated Lueyang, defeated Ma Su, and drove the Shu captives to the street pavilion like driving sheep and dolphins. It was really easy.
These Shu soldiers looked extremely weak. If the loss of Longyou was due to too few soldiers and horses, then how could such a key point as Longguan be lost?
It's so dangerous that the Shu captives can be burned? It's really unbelievable.
Pang Hui is the son of a hero like Pound. Everyone says he has the courage of his father, but he didn't expect it to be so useless. What a pity!
"Back to the general, the street pavilion was heavily guarded. We wanted to get closer to observe, but we were driven out of the city by Shu captives. The defeated army wanted to enter the camp, but was shot dead by the guard in the camp. It seems that we were well prepared."
When Zhang He heard this, his expression became a little serious, "Is there such a thing?"
Judging from the confessions of the captured Shu captains and marquises, Jieting does not have many troops now. Judging from the previous two situations, as soon as the army arrives, the Jieting guard will leave the city and surrender. That is the most natural thing.
matter.
I didn’t expect that the other party actually had a statue of a city guard?
With this thought in mind, he ordered the entire army to speed up the pace.
After arriving at the place, before it got dark, Zhang He took his troops and went to the outskirts of the Han army's camp to watch in person.
After seeing the camp and its surroundings clearly, Zhang He took a deep breath and blurted out, "If General Lueyang can be half as powerful as General Jieting, how can we be so relaxed?"
But I saw a lot of people on the camp, and the guards were arranged in an orderly manner.
On the outside of the village wall, there is a five-foot-high small barrier. There is a cold light between the small barrier and the wall. It is obvious that someone is standing behind it.
In front of the other side of the city, there are a lot of deer antlers.
In front of Juma Deer Antler, there is a ditch...
In front of the trench, there was nothing but a pile of corpses scattered across the ditch. Within a few hundred steps, everything was clean.
There was no grass, no wood, not even a slightly larger stone to be found.
The more Zhang He looked at it, the more horrified he became. He felt that he really had a toothache. Even the loose soil and stones that filled the trench were shoveled away. This was an incredible thing.
"Who is this guard?"
I'm afraid half of my manpower will be used just to fill the trenches, push back the antlers, and then destroy this small city.
Even so, we can only get to the bottom of the fortress wall before we can officially start attacking the camp.
Looking at the hedgehog-like camp in front of him, Zhang He immediately gave up the idea of taking it lightly.
The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became, so he immediately sent someone to the front of the stronghold to shout: "May I ask which general is in the stronghold?"
A head popped up from the wall of the village and shouted back, "General Han Pi, Liu Yin of Shu County!"
Seeing this, Zhang He sent someone to pass the message.
"General Liu, now that the king's army has arrived, you will lead the weak troops to guard the street pavilion. I see that the layout of the camp is quite lawful. I think you must be a rare general."
"But how could that fake Shu be ignorant of people and make you surrender to the position of general? I, the Emperor of the Wei Dynasty, am very thirsty for talents. If you are willing to join the Wei Dynasty, I will protect you and make you a marquis and a general!"
Liu Yin in the village replied very cheerfully, "Just wait!"
When Zhang He heard this, he felt happy and thought that he finally didn't have to attack the city.
After a while, the small gate was lowered, and a group of Han troops came out and dragged away the corpses of the defeated soldiers in front of Zhang He, which made his eyelids jump.
After the war, no one would make it difficult for the auxiliary soldiers who cleaned up the corpses, but what the street guard did was obviously intentional.
I saw Liu Yin saying again on the wall of the stronghold, "I am guarding this street pavilion for the Han Dynasty. I would rather kill the defeated army, but am I afraid of killing the rebel army? If you have the ability, come and attack me!"
