On this day, the 100,000 Xiliang troops who came to attack Huaili County withdrew without any warning. They had no nostalgia for Huaili County, which had been attacking Huaili County for several days.
This scene was all witnessed by several people in the city.
"Brother Bo Dao, they have withdrawn."
Wei Yan on the side showed joy and laughed.
This battle was enough for them to be proud of. They used 20,000 soldiers to block the fierce attack of a hundred thousand troops, and today they even took the initiative to withdraw their troops.
Huang Zhong looked at all this calmly, touched his pale beard and smiled.
"Haha, the world says horses are very brave, but in my opinion, this horse is nothing more than that."
Hao Zhao also showed his April face, looked into the distance and said: "First let people move away the huge stone at the city gate, and let the spies see the strength of Xiliang's army."
Hao Zhao's character was inherently cautious, and no one refuted this.
There is more or less a reason for the Xiliang army to evacuate in such a hurry. It would be safer to let spies investigate first.
After a while, several spies returned, all of them with curves on their lips.
"General, Xiliang has withdrawn its troops."
“Everyone’s food, grass, and baggage were evacuated, and nothing was left behind!”
Hearing this, Hao Zhao laughed out loud, looked in the direction of Chang'an, and thought to himself.
Finally, they have lived up to their lord's trust, and now their mission has been completed.
Everyone can cheer for a moment, and leave the rest to the lord and the others.
On this day, all the tens of thousands of Qiang prisoners in Qian County on the Sizhou border were imprisoned here.
The goal of this 100,000-strong army has been achieved. There is no need to take a detour when returning. Moreover, it has reached the border of Sizhou. It only takes a day and a half to reach the vicinity.
However, these 100,000 troops were not stationed in the city, but near the official road near Qian County.
At this time, Zhang Liao looked at Zhao Yun and asked curiously: "Zilong, what are we doing here? Shouldn't we go to Huaili County to surround the Xiliang army?"
Zhao Yun shook his head and said: "My lord has ordered us to ambush here. In less than an hour, the Xiliang army will appear."
This made Zhang Liao look even more shocked. He naturally knew how to organize the troops to march, but he didn't expect this at all.
"Will Xiliang withdraw its troops?"
"My lord actually predicted it seven days ago. It seems that there are experts in Xiliang who can see through my lord's thoughts."
Then he nodded and asked doubtfully: "We are just 100,000 people, so we can ambush the opponent's 100,000 troops like this? And most of the opponents are cavalry."
Zhao Yun still said calmly: "Don't worry, they will not fight with us unless they want to stay in Sizhou forever."
Even Zhao Yun could understand the truth. Zhang Liao understood it instantly and said with a smile: "My lord is still the same as before, everything is as he expected."
Then the two of them looked at each other, and then arranged their troops to ambush on both sides.
One hundred thousand troops were hidden on both sides. Among them, the 30,000 cavalry did not make any sound, as if they had never appeared. The messy footprints and horse hoof prints on the ground had also been covered up early.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the movement of the Xiliang Army was heard, and the ground trembled slightly.
Even the horses lying in ambush breathed out slightly, apparently aware of the enemy's attack.
The two looked at each other and smiled at the same time, carefully exploring Xiliang's movements. They only needed to wait until Xiliang approached, and the 100,000 troops would immediately rush out.
The roar on the ground is getting louder and louder, and Xiliang's 100,000 troops are getting more and more restrained. Now you can see the silhouette of the cavalry when you look in the distance.
Among the 100,000 troops, Sima Yi rode his horse and looked at Ma Teng and others aside and said: "Don't rest. We must evacuate Sizhou within today. If not, we will be in danger."
Excuse me just now, tens of thousands of troops suddenly appeared on both sides, both soldiers and cavalry were all wearing armor.
At the slightest sign, the two armies would instantly fight each other.
Sima Yi's expression changed drastically and he quickly said: "I didn't expect this army to come back so soon."
Then he immediately shouted to Ma Teng beside him: "My lord, you can't stay too long at this moment!"
Ma Teng, who was about to raise his gun and go into battle, turned around and said displeasedly: "The enemy has been killed in the face, do we still want to avoid the battle?"
"Do you really think that my Xiliang cavalry will be afraid of Cao Jun's cavalry?"
As soon as this statement came out, Sima Yi was angered by Ma Teng's ignorance and shouted angrily: "Cao's army must be chasing behind us now, otherwise do you think this 100,000-strong army dares to intercept us?"
"He is stalling for time. When the rear army arrives, can we still leave?"
Upon hearing this, Ma Teng's face turned pale instantly. Every move he made seemed to be under Cao Jun's arrangement, which made him feel extremely unhappy.
But despite this, there is nothing you can do. If you don't do this, it will be a dead end and there is no choice at all.
It seems that from the very beginning when they chose to attack Sizhou, this matter was destined to be like this.
Even if he was asked to attack again, he would not have thought that Cao Jun would attack the Qiang first.
There were many Qiang people in his army, and they were all greatly affected by this incident.
These changes were simply unforeseen when he first attacked Sizhou.
Then a trace of determination appeared in his eyes, and he shouted angrily: "Withdraw your troops and don't fight with Cao's army!"
As soon as this statement came out, many people were surprised, but the soldiers did not have much objection and began to evacuate.
Although Pang De was a little puzzled, he didn't say much.
Ma Chao, on the other hand, looked at Ma Teng with confusion and shock.
However, Ma Teng ignored Ma Chao at this time and shouted coldly: "Withdraw troops!"
Countless soldiers began to retreat. Following Ma Teng's order, these soldiers also began to retreat one after another.
Ma Chao looked at the evacuating soldiers and had no idea what to do. It was impossible for him alone to face an army of tens of thousands.
He turned around, looked at Ma Teng and roared: "Father, why!"
"The enemy troops are already in front of us, why should we withdraw!"
Ma Teng's face was equally ugly, and he scolded him angrily: "Do you think I want to? If we let this 100,000-strong army hold us back, and the follow-up army comes, can we still leave?"
After Ma Chao heard this, he fell silent, glanced at the rear of Cao's army with an ugly face, and began to retreat on horseback.
"Hurry up, horse, come and die!"
Zhao Yun came out with a stern voice. He had been paying attention to Ma Chao. Among all the people in Xiliang, he was the one who paid the most attention to him.
The spear in his hand kept stabbing the surrounding soldiers to death, and pointed straight at Ma Chao'er and his two men.
Seeing the 100,000 troops leaving, Cao Jun began to pursue them hard, with 30,000 cavalry in front and 70,000 infantry behind, but Ma Teng didn't even bring back his head.
Ma Chaoshan also heard Zhao Yun's loud shout, but at this moment he could only turn pale, pretending not to know, and continued to run away.
Since Cao Jun was so persistent in pursuit, there must be pursuers behind him.
Since coming to Sizhou, the several battles he has experienced have made the extremely proud Ma Chao feel humiliated.
