In fact, Wen Qin has a very important reason, the main reason why Cao Liang asked for mercy to these ordinary people is that if the Bingzhou army indiscriminately kills innocents, it will not only bear a lot of infamy, but also arouse great hatred among the Jizhou army.

  When Le Cheng lost, most of the defenders took the initiative to surrender, and even Le Cheng guarded Jiang Xiu, who was tied up by his subordinates, which proved that most of the people in the Jizhou army were unwilling to participate in the war, and only under pressure from above, they would have to join the battle.

  But the premise is that their relatives can be safe and sound, if their relatives don't suffer, it makes these Jizhou soldiers who have no intention of fighting to strengthen their determination to fight to the death, and come to avenge their relatives who died.

  That's why Cao Liang asked the generals of each battalion not to hurt innocents when fighting, and when necessary, to protect and contain civilians.

  At any time, what Cao Liang advocates is people-oriented and people-oriented. Cao Liang's purpose is not only to defeat Sima Jun and subdue Jizhou, but what he wants to get is not just a lifeless Jizhou, after a big battle, there is no rooster crow for a hundred miles, and the white bones are exposed in the wild, which is by no means what Cao Liang wants to see.

  Du Qi deliberately drove the refugees to open the way for him, with vicious and sinister intentions, how could Wen Qin fall for him, so Wen Qin simply gave up the interception in the front, and strengthened the attack on the flanks and rear.

  With the attack ability of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, even if Duqi is not dead, he will have to shed his skin.

  Therefore, although the Jizhou army is advancing, the losses are quite large, even if they use a lot of vehicles on the flanks to block the cavalry attack, but these vehicles are not flat box vehicles, can not build a unified and solid defense line, and they use these vehicles are not professional, it is difficult to effectively form a defensive barrier.

  Therefore, every time the cavalry battalion attacked, almost all of them could find the flaws of the Jizhou army, so they were easily torn apart by their formation, like cutting leeks, and cutting off countless heads.

  The Jizhou army wanted to use the archers to counterattack, but the attack of the Xiao cavalry battalion always maintained a formation, and the position was erratic, with the rough archery skills of the Jizhou army, it would take a lot of effort just to aim, and the speed of the Xiao cavalry camp was extremely fast, even if it could occasionally shoot one, it was just a blind cat encountering a dead mouse, which was purely an accident.

  Therefore, most of the arrows of the Jizhou army failed, and the cavalry roared and drifted away, and all the attacks were like dragonflies and water, and they left after a vote, and they did not give the Jizhou army a chance to surround themselves at all.

  This is also the offensive strategy arranged by Wen Qin in advance, killing the enemy is important, but his own casualties are more important, such a rabble is really not worth the relatively large casualties paid by the cavalry battalion to win.

  Although in the field battle, the Xiao cavalry battalion occupies an absolute advantage, but Wen Qin also deliberately avoided falling into the entanglement, after all, the Jizhou army has a large number of people, once caught in it, many ants can bite the elephant to death.

  Therefore, the attack of the Xiao cavalry battalion was very flexible, and many teams took turns to attack, this team had just left, and the other team would rush from another direction, and every attack made the Jizhou army suffer heavy casualties.

  Dooch had a headache. Although the fighting style of the Xiao cavalry battalion did not give him a fatal blow, it was like a maggot attached to the bones, and he never left, and the Jizhou army had no strength to resist at all, so it could only be passively cut flesh, all the way forward, throwing countless corpses along the way, Du Qi doubted whether he could escape to Xindu alive.

  In any case, using refugees to open the way does bring them a glimmer of life, otherwise they will be besieged by the Bingzhou cavalry, and if they can't break through, they can only be eaten away step by step.

  It is too difficult to fight a field battle with the Bingzhou cavalry, although the whole army is numerous, but it is simply unable to resist the attack of the Bingzhou cavalry, they are like a large group of lambs to be slaughtered, and the Bingzhou cavalry is just like a ferocious wolf, waiting for the opportunity to move, easily hunting their prey with little resistance ability.

  If the offensive of the Xiaocai battalion was a little more fierce, I am afraid that the Jizhou army would have been wiped out long ago.

  It is getting closer and closer to Xindu, but the number of Jizhou troops is getting smaller and smaller, and the vehicles that can protect them on both wings have become scattered and dilapidated, and they have lost their barriers.

  Just when Du Qi and the others were in despair, a team of people suddenly rushed out of the front, with a neat lineup and a clear banner, and killed them head-on.

  Du Qi felt a chill in his heart, they had already suffered too many losses along the way, and they were exhausted, if the state army still had a group of men and horses in ambush here, wouldn't they have no way to go and no way to enter the ground?

  Fortunately, the sharp-eyed soldiers saw that they were the banners of Lu Zhao, the general of Zhenbei, and hurriedly told Du Qi, who turned his worries into joy.

  Seeing that Xindu's reinforcements came out to respond, Wen Qin immediately stopped the pursuit and took the initiative to retreat, not that Wen Qin was afraid of them, but if he continued to fight, the Xiao cavalry battalion might suffer relatively large losses, anyway, the purpose of this battle Xiao cavalry battalion has been achieved, there is no need to worry about how much to kill the enemy, and it is a wise move to withdraw decisively.

  As the first general, he quickly came to Du Qi and arched his hand: "The last general, Qiu Lin, on the order of General Lu, came to meet Du Taishou, and asked Du Taishou to enter the city quickly." ”

  Du Qi thanked him gratefully, if it wasn't for Lu Zhao sending troops to respond, he was afraid that his army would really be wiped out.

  In just a few dozen miles, it is simply a devil's road, and the more than 20,000 people that Du Qi brought out from Zhending are estimated to have more than six or seven percent of the casualties, and only seven or eight thousand people remain, which can be quite heavy.

  Du Qi glanced behind him, and the corpses all the way to the west, all the way to the west, the corpses were innumerable.

  And more than eighty percent of the refugees he was carrying were scattered, either dying in the chaos or fleeing to various places without a trace.

  Duqi couldn't care about this anymore, and it was already a great blessing to be able to get here alive.

  The general who responded escorted Qiu Lin Duqi and others to the city of Xindu, and asked the defenders to open the city gate and let Du Qi and them enter the city. However, Qiu Lin did not enter the city, but led the army back and continued to march westward, after all, Du Qi was only a group of people they rescued, and there were many fleeing troops waiting for their response.
