While Wang Ding and Jia Xu were talking, Xu Huang took out his iron bow.
Hold the arrow with two fingers and draw the bow string.
The iron bow, which was originally only one-third of a circle, was pulled into a full circle under Xu Huang's powerful arm strength.
He aimed at Yang Huai below the city.
Bang!
When the bow string was loosened, it was like exploding in the air, and in an instant, the arrow was like a stream of light, heading straight for Yang Huai's door.
Perhaps Yang Huai had been scolding him for too long and was a little tired. He waited until the arrow was about to hit him before he reacted and tried to move away.
But at this time, there is still no time.
"Ah..."
Hearing an earth-shattering scream, Yang Huai fell off the horse.
At the last moment, he tricked his head a little, and the arrow only penetrated half of his cheek and passed through the cheekbone.
The soldiers behind him quickly stepped forward and dragged Yang Huai back.
Then the 10,000 soldiers who were waiting in full formation retreated to the camp ten miles away.
On the city wall, Wang Ding did not order the pursuit.
There were only 10,000 people in front of him, and Wang Ding was worried that after leaving the city, Gao Pei would take the opportunity to launch an attack.
Behind the opponent, there are still 70,000 troops.
Gao Pei looked at Yang Huai who was brought back with a gloomy face.
The cheek was penetrated and the injury was very serious, but Yang Huai was not unconscious at the moment. He screamed like a slaughtered pig along the way, which made people upset.
Gao Pei didn't care about Yang Huai's life or death. He just felt that Yang Huai was too incompetent. He went to call for battle with great arrogance, but was shot by an arrow and screamed back.
When Yang Huai wanted to call for formation, Gao Pei objected.
They had just arrived at the camp, and Zhang Lu's siege equipment had been damaged. According to Gao Pei's wishes, it was better to prepare the siege equipment first.
Even though they were at the same level, he couldn't order Yang Huai.
Yang Huai refused to listen and insisted on taking 10,000 people to call for formation.
Gao Pei had no choice but to make other preparations to support Yang Huai at any time.
He didn't care about Yang Huai's life or death, or it would be better if Yang Huai died, but Gao Pei couldn't sit idly by and watch those 10,000 soldiers follow Yang Huai to death.
In the military camp, Zhang Wei and Yang Bai heard about it and brought their doctors over to visit Yang Huai.
The two of them looked at each other with expressions of humiliation, but in their hearts they also looked down upon Yang Huai Gaopei.
I thought that Yizhou was so powerful that it was not the same as them.
No, it’s not as good as them.
The arrow on Yang Huai's face was quickly removed by the doctor.
As the arrow was pulled out, a lot of blood flowed out. Yang Huai didn't know whether it was from unbearable pain or excessive blood loss, and he finally fell into a coma.
Gao Pei asked: "Doctor, how is his injury? Is his life in danger?"
The doctor in the army, who was not the miracle doctor Hua Tuo, shook his head and sighed: "Whether you can survive or not depends on your luck."
He can't say he will die.
With such an injury, a doctor who can successfully remove the arrow may be considered a famous doctor.
An ordinary doctor might just pull out the arrow and the person will die.
Gao Pei did not embarrass the doctor, his face was gloomy.
Zhang Wei and Yang Bai stayed for a while longer. Seeing that Yang Huai was still unconscious, they also said goodbye and left.
Although Zhang Lu asked the two of them to obey Yang Huai and Gao Pei, they did not want to see Gao Pei's gloomy face.
After losing the battle before, the two of them had little confidence, but now that Yang Huai had also been defeated, and might even die. The two of them began to feel excited.
They look down on Yang Huai now, and they regard Gao Pei, who has always been popular, as the same thing as Yang Huai.
The two of them left shaking their heads, not having any hope of attacking Yangping Pass this time.
They don't want to follow Gao Pei to death.
The two looked at each other and it was self-evident.
Naturally, Wang Ding on the city wall had no idea what Zhang Wei, Gao Pei and the others were thinking outside the city.
If he knew it, Wang Ding would probably wake up from his dream laughing.
With a disunited army and scheming generals, if he still fails, then he should just be honest and take Diao Chan to find a place to live in seclusion.
Sima Lang sent several capable spies to Chengdu.
Wang Ding has decided for the time being to continue to stay behind closed doors and not fight.
In addition to clothing to keep out the cold, there is no shortage of other supplies in Yangping Pass.
He can wait for the spies from Chengdu to come back and then make a decision.
After Yang Huai was shot in the face by Xu Huang, the opponent did not come back to fight for a few days.
However, when Wang Ding was at the top of the city, he also saw the other party sending soldiers to cut down trees in the nearby mountains and forests.
Jia Xu came out of the wounded barracks and went to see Wang Ding.
"Lord, some of the wounded soldiers in the wounded soldiers camp have recovered well and can already move around on their own."
Wang Ding said: "Can you let them go back?"
Wang Ding and Jia Xu had long planned to use these ghost soldiers to dismantle Zhang Lu's Five Pecks of Rice Sect.
If you want them to contribute, you must not only heal their injuries, but also make them recognize Wang Ding and the Han army.
In this way, if they are released back to Hanzhong, these people will speak for Wang Ding and reduce other people's hostility towards the Han army.
Jia Xu said: "These people have performed well, you can let them go back and give them a try."
In the past few days, Jia Xu's main job is to have heart-to-heart conversations with those wounded soldiers who are in good condition and can already move around.
Jia Xu also knew that these people still had feelings for the Five Dou Rice Cult, so when he praised Wang Ding and praised the Han army, he did not deliberately discredit Zhang Lu and deliberately trampled the Five Dou Rice Cult on the ground.
Jia Xu stepped on Liu Yan of Yizhou.
It shows that the cause of this war was all because Liu Yan wanted to rebel, and then pushed Zhang Lu out, and also detained Zhang Lu's mother as a hostage in Chengdu.
In a few words, these ghost soldiers were angered and made them stand on the opposite side of Liu Yan.
Several people said that after returning home, they must ask Zhang Lu not to do anything for Liu Yan.
Wang Ding said: "Then let them go back and give them more food."
Jia Xu said: "I am sending a few soldiers to mix in."
He needs to see how these wounded soldiers will behave after they return to Hanzhong.
Will they speak for the Han army?
In addition, what is Zhang Lu's attitude towards these people? Can they be allowed to speak for the Han army?
No way, he put the person back here, and Zhang Lu immediately chopped him up.
A dozen wounded soldiers put on brand new clothes and left Yangping Pass.
Head straight towards the camp ten miles away.
Jia Xu did not give them any tasks, he just said that their injuries were almost healed and they could leave.
If the purpose is too obvious, it will make people suspicious.
Therefore, when these wounded soldiers walked out of Yangping Pass, they were still a little unbelievable. Naturally, their first thought was to go to the military camp ten miles away, because there were still their companions there.
Their divisions are still there.
They have a lot to say, and they want to talk to other ghost soldiers, and they want to talk to Zhang Lu.
They didn't know yet that Zhang Lu had returned to Hanzhong before today.
