"Those who descend will not be killed!"

As the shouts of the Youzhou soldiers sounded one after another, the cavalry of the Six Kingdoms who were still alive gradually stopped resisting, obediently threw their weapons on the ground, held their heads in their hands, and accepted Tai Shici's surrender. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Now that the battle is over, the next step is to start counting casualties. Tai Shici's 50,000 soldiers and horses, more than 500 killed, more than 3,000 lightly wounded, and more than 700 seriously wounded, the casualties are not small, after all, the opponent's equipment is not as good as his own, and there is no general command, and they are completely relying on their own quality to fight. Of course, there will be such casualties, also because the other party is cavalry, otherwise, the casualties can be fewer, however, compared with the casualties of the six countries, Tai Shici's casualties are basically negligible.

Nearly 20,000 people were killed, more than 10,000 were slightly wounded, and more than 5,000 were seriously wounded. Combined, the casualties of the soldiers and horses of the six countries are almost 40,000, and it can be said that their soldiers and horses are wounded one by one, and Tai Shici has more than 4,000 casualties, which is only one-tenth of them.

The cavalry of the Six Nations was eliminated, the battle was not over, and most of the opposing side still existed. Therefore, how to solve the nearly 20,000 surrendered troops is also a problem.

As a famous general in history, Tai Shici naturally did not waste his fame, and he quickly made a decision.

"Pass on the order of the commander of this army, contact the guards of Xiangping City, and send people to escort these surrendered troops. Leave 5,000 sword and shield soldiers to guard them, and scatter them all and redistribute them to a team of 100 people. But one person resisted, and the whole team was killed!"

Now is wartime, although Tai Shici's name has the word Ci, but now is not the time to be merciful, so he will be ruthless when he should be ruthless. Otherwise, 5,000 soldiers will guard the surrendered troops, and if there is any change in these surrendered troops, although they have already unloaded their weapons, the strength of the 5,000 soldiers is still a little tight. Therefore, Tai Shici directly used the method of Zhulian, and he thought that he could also deter these surrendered troops.

"No!"

A personal soldier galloped to Xiangping City, which is only a dozen miles away from Xiangping City, and can be reached in less than half an hour by riding a horse. Therefore, after arranging everything, Tai Shici led the rest of the soldiers and horses and marched towards Benxi City.

Under Benxi City, Gao Jianchang led 20,000 defeated soldiers to approach quickly. Now, he is not thinking about whether he can get benefits, but whether he can leave the ghost place of Youzhou. The Seven Nations Alliance Army has more than 200,000 soldiers and horses, and as a result, the other side has a plan, so they are killed and wounded, not to mention half of it, half of the troops are not left. It was also thanks to the fear of death that their Goguryeo generals were able to save so many troops. Otherwise, Gao Jianchang would not say that he would return to Goguryeo at this moment, and he would die on the spot to thank the world.

"Huh?"

When it was only a few hundred meters away from Benxi City, Gao Jianchang frowned slightly. It stands to reason that they sent troops to attack Tai Shici tonight, and the soldiers left behind in Benxi City should also have received the news and should also take action. However, Benxi City is too quiet now, like a fierce beast that chooses people and devours people, opening its mouth wide, quietly waiting for their prey to be sent into its mouth.

Gao Jianchang is also worthy of being a famous general in Goguryeo, although he has experienced a tragic defeat, but he has not lost his composure because of this. Although they lost this battle, it was not because of Gao Jianchang's lack of ability, it could only be said that they did not know enough about the tactics of the Central Plains. Of course, saying that, defeat is defeat after all, Gao Jianchang has nothing to say, after returning to Goguryeo, what punishment the Goguryeo royal family has for him, he also admits it. However, as a general's acumen, Gao Jianchang still intuitively found that Benxi City was unusual today. Therefore, after a short period of thought, Gao Jianchang decided to stay still and let the army stay outside the city, waiting for the arrival of soldiers and horses from several other countries.

"General Gao Jianchang, why didn't you say a word and leave like this. ”

Not long after, the main generals of the other six countries also approached Benxi City with their own defeated troops. When it was approaching, Yehena Ratonna saw Gao Jianchang stop, and immediately couldn't help the anger in his heart, and directly began to taunt. Although he shouted the general in his mouth, the meaning of the mockery could be heard by everyone present.

"There is a saying among the people of the Central Plains that victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, and General Yehnaratonna does not need to be like this. Gao Jianchang didn't speak, but Jian Qiutai, the prince of Fuyu, made a round, and then he looked at Gao Jianchang and asked, "General Gao, since you have already returned, why don't you enter the city?"

Several other people were still angry about the defeat, but Jian Qiutai noticed Gao Jianchang's strange behavior.

If it was in normal times, Gao Jianchang would definitely not tell the truth, but would fool these allies and let them take the lead and explore the way for themselves. However, tonight has experienced a big defeat, and the troops of several countries are not many, and now they are still within the boundaries of Youzhou, if they are intrigued again and do not unite, I am afraid that none of them will be able to escape. Therefore, Gao Jianchang did not hide anything, and expressed his doubts and worries.

It's just that although Gao Jianchang has a good heart, some people believed it when he told a lie, but now that he is telling the truth, it makes people suspicious.

"Humph!"

I saw Walton on the side snorting disdainfully, and said: "General Gao Jianchang, among us people, you have the most ghost brains, who knows what you are thinking, whether what you say is true." Since you are afraid, my warriors will not be afraid, so let my warriors go to explore the way for you, so that you can see and see the power of our warriors. ”

Gao Jianchang wanted to persuade again, but seeing the suspicious expressions of several people, he was also angry in his heart, since you don't know what to do, then you can't blame yourself.

Walton led the defeated soldiers to the forefront, and he didn't need to be guarded by his own soldiers, he shouted directly at the head of Benxi City: "Who is under the command of the city, why didn't you leave the city to greet me when you saw us." ”

"Boom!"

"Boom!" "Boom!"

However, Walton's words fell, and it was not the city's answer that greeted him. First the city gate was suddenly closed, and then countless arrows fell on the city, just in the blink of an eye, Nan Wo's soldiers fell, and even Walton was shot a few arrows, if it wasn't for the soldiers behind him who stepped forward in time to help him block, he would have become a hedgehog at this moment. The Mahan soldiers who followed Nanwo Fu also fell a lot, and seeing this, they hurriedly ordered a retreat.

"The commander of this army has been waiting here for a long time, why are you late!"

The figure of a general above the head of Benxi City appeared, not who Yu Ban was. Beside him, there were a group of officers, and above the city, at this moment, there were even more Youzhou soldiers, holding torches, looking at the defeated soldiers of the Seven Kingdoms under the city.

It turned out that Yuan Chang, Guo Jia and Tai Shici made a plan to abandon Benxi City. However, they knew that Benxi City was the fastest city for their alien countries to leave Youzhou, and in the event of a sudden defeat, they would definitely take this road, and if they took a detour, it would not be so simple. Therefore, although he abandoned Benxi City, Yuan Chang left a back hand in the city and dug a tunnel in the houses near the city wall. Tai Shici used a stone thrower to harass him before, that is, he asked Gao Jianchang and them to withdraw the large army from the city, leaving only a few soldiers and horses to garrison. And the hour before Gao Jianchang and they were ready to sneak attack, Yu Ban led the soldiers and horses into Benxi City from the tunnel, solved the few soldiers and horses left by Gao Jianchang and them, and occupied the city. Originally, Yu Ban opened the city gate to let Gao Jianchang and half of his soldiers and horses enter the city before they started to act. Who knows, Gao Jianchang experienced a big defeat, but he was still calm, so he was not fooled. Therefore, Yu Ban no longer hid, and directly let the archers shoot, how many kills can be shot. And in that moment just now, Walton's soldiers and horses and Jin Tainong's soldiers and horses were also shot and wounded by thousands, but their own side did not lose a single soldier, but it was also a good record.

"General Gao, what now?" Yehena Ratonna couldn't care about Gao Jianchang's misastrous defeat at the moment, and asked eagerly.

Just now Gao Jianchang said that there was something wrong with Benxi City, but they didn't believe it, but now it's okay, Walton was shot and wounded, and Nan Wofu and Ma Han also suffered a lot of casualties. Now their soldiers and horses add up to 50,000 or 60,000, and now they are even more scarce, if Tai Shici's soldiers and horses attack, I am afraid that none of them will be able to escape. Therefore, they can only pin all their hopes on Gao Jianchang, who is very talented.

Although I am not happy with the attitude of several allies, but now is not the time for conflict. Therefore, after pondering for a while, Gao Jianchang said quickly: "It is obviously too late to capture Benxi City now, I am afraid that before we attack the city, Tai Shici's soldiers and horses have already attacked." Therefore, if you want to leave Youzhou now, you can only bypass Benxi City. It's just that if you want to leave by detour, I'm afraid you will have to walk several times more, and now that we are short of food and grass, coupled with Tai Shici's pursuit, whether we can leave safely is also a problem. So, today we only have three options. The first choice is to gather the troops and horses, set up the formation, and wait for Tai Shi Ci's soldiers and horses to chase him and engage him. ”

Gao Jianchang and they have now gathered 50,000 or 60,000 defeated soldiers, and there are still countless wounded soldiers in Bapanling, Tai Shici wants to arrange those wounded soldiers, and it will definitely take a lot of troops, and it is unknown how many troops will fight with them at that time. From here, it seems that they still have a chance to win. However, don't forget, there is still Yu Ban in Benxi City, and Yu Ban has 50,000 troops in Shiqiaozi City, who knows how many troops he brought this time. If they start a war with Tai Shici on their side, and Yu Ban opens the city and rushes out, they will face a situation of being attacked from both sides, plus they have just lost a game, and their morale is low.

Sure enough, everyone shook their heads. In fact, even Gao Jianchang himself knew that this method actually didn't work, and it was also a choice when he said it, but they were all scared by Tai Shici, and they had no idea of continuing to fight.

After a pause, Gao Jianchang continued: "The second option, that is for our soldiers to divide into two routes, bypass Benxi City, break through from the north and south, and then return to their respective countries. ”

A detour to retreat seems like a good suggestion. However, Gao Jianchang said just now, part of their grain and grass is left in Benxi City, and now Benxi City is occupied by Yu Ban, so naturally there is no need to think about it, and the other part of the grain and grass is in the camp, because of the retreat, there is not much to bring in a hurry, only enough for the soldiers to have a day's rations, if you take a detour, to avoid the pursuit of Youzhou soldiers and horses, it will take several times more effort, it seems that it is not suitable. When foreign countries invade the Central Plains, they usually only bring a small amount of grain and grass, and their idea is to capture a city and seize the grain and grass in the city, so that the war is nourished by war, which can be said to be the least consumption. Unlike the battles in the Central Plains, where the two armies often fought, the first thing to prepare was grain and grass, how long the battle would last, and how much grain and grass to prepare, all of which had to be arranged properly before troops were dispatched. Just like the battle of Guandu, it was precisely because Yuan Shao's grain and grass were burned by Cao Cao that Yuan Shao would be defeated so quickly, otherwise, with Yuan Shao's absolute strength, Cao Cao would not say victory, and it was a question whether he could keep his strength. And examples such as the Battle of Guandu are even more numerous in the Central Plains. Therefore, in the history of battles with foreign races, experienced generals were usually able to respond in time, that is, to move the people of villages and towns into the city, and implement the policy of fortifying the walls and clearing the wilderness. As a result, the way of fighting of the alien race cannot be carried out, and there are countless examples of such defeat.

Now, Gao Jianchang and they are short of food and grass, and they have to face the pursuit of Youzhou soldiers, such a choice is not much worse than the first one, so they did not make a decision immediately, they all looked at Gao Jianchang with blank eyes, waiting for him to say the third choice.

Gao Jianchang is not stupid, how can he not see what they mean, these guys don't want to fight, and they don't want to retreat around the road, but want him to give a complete plan, do they think he is a god?

With a sneer in his heart, Gao Jianchang said expressionlessly: "The people of the Central Plains have a good saying, stay in the green mountains and are not afraid of no firewood, so, the third choice, hum!"

Although Gao Jianchang's words did not continue, in addition to Walton present, Walton was now injured by an arrow and could no longer speak. Therefore, several other people immediately understood what Gao Jianchang meant, and he said a sentence from the Central Plains for no reason, isn't it telling everyone that as long as his life is saved, there will still be a chance, what he meant, that is to say, the third choice is to surrender.

Everyone looked at each other and surrendered, what kind of result would be, no one could predict. Therefore, after Gao Jianchang finished saying the three choices, everyone fell silent for a while. (To be continued.) )
