The battle of Lao Ye Ling has lasted for three days, after the crazy attack of the Huns, the defense line on the top of the mountain is also dangerous, if it is not for the proper command of Yang Hu Du, personally in front of the front line of the first line of the soldiers, brave fighting, the infantry battalion and the shooting battalion of the soldiers of the same hatred of the enemy, sacrifice their lives and forget death, it is likely that the defense line of Lao Ye Ling will be difficult to keep.

Despite this, the infantry battalion and the shooting battalion also suffered considerable pressure in this battle, which was related to the life and death of the clansmen, and it was indeed terrible for these Huns to fight for their lives.

The infantry battalion was on the front line, and the casualties were naturally the largest, with 2,000 people in the whole battalion, and the combat attrition was as high as more than 1,000 people, and about half of the soldiers were blood-stained with Lao Yeling.

Although the condition of the shooting battalion was slightly better, it had lost about 20% of its men and horses so far, and you can see how tragic the battle was.

In response to such a battle situation, Deng Ai and Shi Bao, who had been hiding in the valley and had never been in battle, couldn't sit still, and took the initiative to come to Cao Liang to ask for a battle to alleviate the pressure on the infantry battalion.

Cao Liang shook his head gently: "Now is not the time for you to attack, although the enemy is exhausted but not completely exhausted, although he has exhausted but not yet exhausted, so it is still necessary to hide the Yue Cavalry Battalion and the Tun Cavalry Battalion, and wait until the time is fully ripe before attacking." ”

In such a difficult situation, Cao Liang still adhered to the tactics he had formulated in advance, and the Yue cavalry battalion and the tun cavalry battalion were his two hidden chess pieces, that is, when the Huns were exhausted, they would make a decisive attack and deal a fatal blow to the Huns.

Now the time is not ripe, although the Wei army blocked the Huns again and again fierce attacks, but the Huns did not give up, and did not to exhaust the time, their number is several times that of the Yue cavalry battalion and the tun cavalry battalion, if the Yue cavalry battalion and the tun cavalry battalion attacked, failed to hit, it was equivalent to giving the Huns a heart of defense, the Yue cavalry battalion and the tun cavalry battalion attacked again, it would not have the effect of a surprise army.

Therefore, Cao Liang asked Deng Ai and Shi Bao to restrain and forbear, waiting for the opportunity, although now is the most difficult time for the Wei army, but the same Huns are also in the same difficulty, at this time, it is not just a competition for combat effectiveness, but to compete whose will is stronger, who will win the final victory.

The current battle situation is indeed a great test for the infantry battalion, because the infantry battalion is on the front line, in order to hold the position, they often have to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the Huns who rushed up, and the infantry battalion has been killed and wounded for three days.

Although the Shooting Battalion can give strong support in the back, but in the face of the tide of Hun soldiers, the support of the Shooting Battalion is limited after all, once the two sides are caught in hand-to-hand combat, the crossbowmen of the Shooting Battalion do not dare to shoot easily, for fear of accidentally injuring their teammates.

What's more, the Huns are not stupid, although they can't fight on horseback, only the infantry limits the play of the Huns' specialties, but they also have bows and arrows in their hands, and it is impossible not to fight back, and about 20% of the casualties of the shooting battalion are given by the archers of the other side.

As for when will the timing of Cao Liang's expectation appear? Cao Liang is not completely sure, judging from the current situation, the casualties of the Huns are at least two to three times that of the Wei army, and if this ratio continues, the casualties of the Huns will be more and more, and there will always be a time when they will not be able to hold on and eventually collapse.

It's just that Cao Liang can't figure out when this time will come, the fierceness of the Huns still gave him a great impression, it seems that Liu Bao's left Huns are much stronger than Liu Yue's southern Huns, and this time the Pingbei Army can be regarded as meeting a real enemy.

But what about the strong enemy, Cao Liang came to merge with the state this time, just to pacify Hu Lu, regardless of whether he is a Hun or a Xiongnu or a Xianbei person, whoever offends my Chinese will be punished if he is not far away!

On the fourth day, the offensive momentum of the Huns was obviously a little weaker than that of the previous days, and it was no longer as fast as the previous days, and it was obvious that the unfavorable attack for many days also hit the morale of the Huns, and the disappointment spread among the Huns army, and the morale was also much lower, which was reflected in the attack, which was naturally a little inadequate.

But this is still a little bit short of Cao Liang's standard timing, and now the Huns are disappointed but not really desperate, if you want to make them desperate, you have to give them some more blows.

At this time, there was news from the Zi clan that Liu Bao's two sons, Liu Yuan and Liu Hong, led their troops to break through from the Zi clan, but they were ambushed by Wang Jun, and Liu Yuan and Liu Hong and hundreds of his subordinates were taken prisoner.

Although the Wei army temporarily besieged the Zi clan but did not attack, the panic caused in the Zi city was irreparable, and the Huns in the entire Zi city were in panic all day long, for fear that the Wei army would suddenly attack and leave their bones behind.

These Huns, who are not bloodstained on their hands, once the city of Zi is broken, they will be worried about the bloody revenge of the Wei army.

At this time, there were rumors flying all over the city of Zi's, saying that Liu Bao's reinforcements were defeated by the Wei army on the way, and they could never return to Zi's again, and some people said that Liu Bao did not return to Zi's aid at all, they were still attacking Jinyang at the moment, and Zi's had been given up by them.

In short, the rumors in the city of Zishi are full of flying, most of them are related to Liu Bao, the days go by, and Liu Bao's reinforcements are never seen, and many Huns are beginning to be disappointed.

From disappointment to despair is a process, but for some, it is a short moment, Liu Yuan and Liu Hong are deeply tormented by fear, and when they close their eyes, they can imagine the bloodshed and cruelty when the city is broken.

So the two of them, despite the dissuasion of the others, opened the city gates, and fled with their men.

Don't look at Wang Jun's siege of Zi's city but not attack, but this does not mean that Wang Jun allowed some fish to escape, when Liu Yuan and Liu Hong wanted to escape at night, Wang Jun had already sent people to set up an ambush on the way out of the city, and almost no resistance was made, and Wang Jun captured the fleeing team alive.

As for the special identities of the captured Liu Yuan and Liu Hong, how to deal with it is a problem, Wang Jun immediately sent someone to report to Cao Liang, and Cao Liang will decide.
