The next day, Tanshi Huai led the troops to the south gate.

"Huh? Why does it feel so lifeless? ”

Tan Shihuai looked at the danger of the banner and had a hint of illusion, but he soon knew that it was not an illusion.

With the order of Tanshi Huai, thousands of cavalry rushed out and rushed to the city without hindrance. This situation made them feel apprehensive and did not dare to act rashly.

Tanshi Huai also felt a little sudden, just yesterday the fight was quite intense, why is there no one today?

However, Tanshi Huai is not an ordinary person, and he will not be frightened like some because of a little weirdness, and then retreat directly.

"Siege!"

Tanshi Huai's voice fell, the urging horn sounded, and the thousands of cavalry troops who hesitated immediately launched an attack.

I was surprised!

It's easy!

He attacked the top of the city, and to be precise, climbed the head of the city without hindrance.

Without Tan Shihuai asking, the cavalry besieging the city rushed back, shouting: "Lord Qiyu Shanyu, there seems to be no one in the city!" ”

"It seems?"

Tan Shihuai was stunned for a moment and said, "Immediately conduct a city-wide search to find traces of the Han army." ”

"Yes, Shan Yu!"

Although Tanshi Huai doesn't know what the situation is, this move is tantamount to using thousands of soldiers as a test, if there is really a trick, I am afraid that these thousands of people are......

The old god of Tanshi Huai waited for a long time, and saw the billowing smoke rising from the dangerous city, and there seemed to be a faint sound of fighting. Tanshi Huai thought for a while and said, "Doro, you take people up, occupy the city wall, and see what the situation is, if it is a trick of the Han army, you must hold the retreat." ”

"Yes, Shan Yu!"

Gřidoro replied with a calm face, and then beckoned three thousand men and horses and rushed to the south gate.

"Everyone, be careful!" Gřidoro did not want to cause unnecessary casualties, so he ordered him to be on guard.

However, Gerzydoro thought too much.

It was no different from before, and he arrived at the city with ease, without the slightest hindrance. Gřidoro's face changed for a while, and he felt like he was going to repeat the mistakes of the past, and he hesitated for a while, and finally took the lead and climbed towards the city.

Tanshi Huai looked at the figure of Gzhidoro, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart, and at the same time a little annoyed, it was not for the thousands of people before, who didn't leave anyone to guard the city gate, and didn't open the city gate, just went into the city like this, it was simply stupid.

It's just that it's useless to be anxious, and it's right to wait with peace of mind. Tanshi Huai took a deep breath and said, "Wait! I believe that the results will be available soon. ”

The rest of the congregation will be free to wait with peace of mind.

After a short time, Gerzhidoro himself rushed back.

"Lord Shan, the thousands of cavalry who advanced to the city first suffered heavy losses, and it seems that they were ambushed, but now those ambushes have also left from the dangerous east gate." Gřidoro spoke quickly, and his face was very ugly. Maybe they thought they accidentally let go of Gongsun Du and the others?

Tan Shihuai was stunned for a moment, and then said: "You mean that there is no Han army in the city now?" ”

Gzhidoro nodded with a gloomy face.

Tanshi Huai was silent for a moment, and then said, "Let's talk about the situation in the city!" ”

Gzhidoro looked up at the sandalwood locust in confusion, and then understood, and said: "According to the soldiers who returned, they fell into traps, some were crushed by the collapse of houses, some were burned by fire, and more were traps like those tunnels before. ”

"So there aren't many people still alive, just over a thousand people, about thirty percent." There is something that Gřidoro didn't say, that is, the people who were burned by the fire are not dead now, but there is only one breath left, and there is no value and possibility of treatment.

"Hmm!" Tanshi Huai nodded solemnly, and did not speak again. Originally, he planned to test how much strength the dangerous defenders still had today, and if it was already very weak, then attack in a big way and take the city. But now that Gongsun Du has run away, he is both angry and happy in his heart.

"Is this a match?"

Tanshihuai seems to have ignored the previous two major battles with Liaodong, and also ignored a small danger that caused him to lose nearly 100,000 people, but it was far more than the dozens of cities in Jiyou and Sanzhou.

This shows that in fact, he has regarded Gongsun Du as a real opponent in his heart, but because of Gongsun Du's age, he has always been reluctant to admit it.

"Alone in adults."

"Well, what's wrong?"

Seeing that Tanshi Huai was silent for a long time, Gřidoro opened his mouth to interrupt his contemplation and said, "Lord Shan Yu, now are we going into the city to rest for a day, or are we going to pursue?" ”

It is indeed a bit unreasonable for a large army to blow the wind outside the city and bask the sun.

Tan Shihuai thought for a while and said: "Just rest outside the city, don't enter the city, it's hard to guarantee that the Han people won't have other conspiracies." ”

After a pause, he said: "In addition, immediately send someone to find out the traces of the Han army, this is to know where they have gone." ”

"Yes, Shan Yu!" Gřidoro seemed to have other ideas, but the relationship between father and son seemed to be different from what it used to be, so he did not say it, but responded directly.

Tanshi Huai also saw Gzhidoro's hesitation, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, but in the end he didn't say anything.

Subsequently.

Tan Shihuai and others set up camp a few miles south of the city, and the materials of the original battalion began to drive to this side. Although Tanshi Huai did not mean to enter the danger, he still sent people to occupy the south gate. At the same time, at least 500 scouts scattered in the north, east, and south directions of the city.

Soon after these scouts were dispersed, the city was about a hundred miles south-east.

"Lord, they're back." Huang Xu stood outside a snow-white tent and said respectfully.

"Oh? Let them in. Gongsun Du's voice sounded.

Immediately, two soldiers walked in.

"Lord!"

Gongsun Du nodded and asked directly, "What's the situation?" ”

"Back to the lord, thousands of cavalry entered the city in the first place, and most of them were killed. After that, they encamped outside the city and did not enter the city. ”

"Not in the city?" Gongsun Du frowned slightly.

According to the plan, after they withdrew from the dangerous city, they first came to a small ambush to dispel the vigilance in Tan Shi Huai's heart, and then took all the troops under Tan Shi Huai to stay in the dangerous city, and then gave him an urn to catch turtles. Now, Xianbei is not in danger, which is really a bit unbelievable.

How could Gongsun Du have thought that Tan Shihuai didn't choose to enter the city because he felt that he was an opponent worthy of attention! It can be said that people are not as good as heaven!

Gongsun Du pondered for a while, and when he saw that the two of them were a little apprehensive on their faces, he retracted his mind and waved his hand and said, "You guys have done a good job, go down and rest now, and wait for a certain order." ”

"Yes, my lord!"

These two people are none other than the captains of the Youyi and Youyou II teams.

After the two left, Gongsun Du thought about it again and ordered someone to recruit Huang Zhong and ask him to strengthen his vigilance.

I have to say that Gongsun Du's decision is very correct, if it is one step later, it is very likely that he will be found hiding by the Tanshi Huai sent out by the detectives.

Gongsun Du's side is not progressing well, and the other two are also in a difficult situation.

Gao Xian, under the attack of Buyeo, the city wall was seriously damaged, and this is still a lot of materials to repair the city wall, otherwise, I am afraid that the city wall would have collapsed long ago.

The city wall was damaged to the point that more soldiers died in the battle, and Buyeo paid a full 50,000 lives for it, which has accounted for half of the army on this expedition, which can be said to be unmistakable.

The losses of the Han army under Xu Rong were also a lot, with a full 8,000 people, which was indeed a lot less than that of Buyeo, but this was due to timely treatment, and the price was the consumption of a large number of medicinal materials......

Moreover, Gao Xian's defenders were not many, only 23,000 people, and now there are only 15,000 people left, of which more than 2,000 are seriously injured and unable to fight again, and more than 3,000 are not light or serious injuries, unable to fight for a long time, and the rest are almost all wounded, but it does not affect the battle.

Xiangping, in comparison, is much easier. It's just that Xiangping is much larger than the rest of the cities in Liaodong, and the people in the city are also much larger, and they were blocked by Goguryeo for almost ten days, which still caused dissatisfaction among the people in the city. It's not anything else, it's mainly that there is no fighting every day, but they can't go out of the city to tend to the crops in the fields, which makes the people at the bottom who regard the fields as their lives very anxious. If you're in a hurry, naturally there will be some bad words. However, only those who are hot-tempered and restless will be like this, and most of the people at the bottom are honest people and do not complain publicly.

However, if it continues like this, sooner or later there will be some dissatisfaction.

This is also one of the reasons why Wei Yu was worried before.

This is also the main reason why Gongsun Du promised to end the war with Xianbei within ten days.
