Chapter 200: Li Biao panicked and surrendered
More than 10,000 Beiping troops squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands.
Some of these surrendered Beiping troops did not have weapons around them, and when they fled before, they had already thrown away their weapons in a panic.
Now that Tian Kai has been killed, the only concern that weighs on their heads is gone, and in the face of the threat of death, all the people who were caught up by Zhao Huijun chose to surrender.
Guan Hai led the men to collect their weapons that were still on the ground.
Looking at Liao Hua and leading people to continue to chase those who ran away.
These Beiping troops commanded by Tian Kai were already very tired, and after hearing Zhang Wang's shouting that those who surrendered should not die, those who could not run and had poor willpower all chose to surrender.
Only a very small number of people fled into the mountains and forests.
In this ambush, the Beiping army almost completely did not resist, and Zhao Hui's losses were negligible.
Less than 100 people were killed and wounded by the Beiping army, and many of them injured themselves because they were in a hurry to kill the enemy.
According to the final statistics, the 20,000 Beiping troops led by Tian Kai were killed and more than 5,000 were wounded.
Together with the other surrenderers, more than 16,000 of the 20,000 Beiping troops were captured this time.
The captured grain and grass were relatively small, and as a rapid march, Tian Kai did not bring too much grain and grass.
"Lord, fortunately not dishonored." Zhao Yun came to Zhao Hui with Tian Kai's head.
"Zilong is doing well."
In fact, whether it is Zhao Hui or Dian Wei, they can catch up with Tian Kai faster. The war horses of the two are the top horse king level.
Zhao Hui could see that Zhao Yun was trying his best to prove himself now, so he and Dian Wei gave this opportunity to Zhao Yun.
From the last time the Iron Leaf Tribe found the horses, Dian Wei caught the Black Whirlwind. Zhao Hui did not stop searching for the horses.
Capturing the King of Horses for Zhao Hui is now the first task of the major tribes of Xianbei.
It's just that although you can often see horses on the grassland, the number of horse kings is really too scarce.
If you can meet one horse a year, you are already very lucky.
During this period of time, he has not been able to catch a horse king for Zhao Yun, and Zhao Yun's current mount is only a high-grade horse.
However, as long as he didn't meet Lu Bu, in the face of other generals who also didn't have a horse king, a top-grade war horse was enough for Zhao Yun.
He is not as heavy as Dian Wei, and he must be a top-notch horse king to be able to carry it.
After counting the numbers, Zhao Hui took more than 10,000 prisoners who had been confiscated and advanced towards Yuyang County.
Originally, it was supposed to be the 20,000 Beiping Army led by Tian Kai, but now Tian Kai's head is hanging on the high flagpole.
Yuyang County!
After Li Biao slept comfortably for a night, he came to the city wall again early in the morning.
He was waiting for Zhao Hui to lead the army to attack the city again, and he was also waiting for Tian Kai's reinforcements to arrive.
It's just that he waited for most of the day, and he didn't see Zhao Hui's army attacking the city, nor did he wait for Tian Kai's reinforcements.
Li Biao already felt that something was wrong in his heart.
In front of Zhao Hui's barracks, although there were people patrolling, the inside of the barracks was very quiet.
It's just that Li Biao, who is on the city wall, can only see the patrol teams that appear outside the camp from time to time, and he can't see the situation inside the camp.
"It's past noon, why haven't Tian Kai's reinforcements arrived yet?" Li Biao didn't dare to say it, for fear of shaking the morale of the army, but he still couldn't help it and found Captain Yang Lin.
"Captain Yang, send someone to see where General Tian's reinforcements are."
As a county guard, Li Biao's intelligence work during the war was not as good as Tian Kai.
Twenty miles east of Yuyang County, there had already been an ambush battle, and his reinforcements had all been wiped out, and he didn't know it yet.
Faced with an empty camp, Li Biao did not send anyone to investigate in the morning, but just guarded the city wall.
But if Li Biao could have discovered the camp under the city earlier, it was already an empty camp. He cooperated with Tian Kai and attacked Zhao Hui hidden in Xiaohuang Mountain before and after, and it is difficult to say who wins and who loses.
But now he didn't have a chance.
When he asked Yang Lin to send someone to find out the news, Zhao Hui took more than 10,000 prisoners, and it was only ten miles away from Yuyang County.
The spies only ran a few miles, and they saw Zhao Huijun's banner from a distance, and when they got closer, they saw the head hanging high on the flagpole. Frightened, he immediately ran back.
"Didn't you go to find out the news, why did you run back in a panic?" Captain Yang Lin scolded when he saw the spy coming back.
"My lord, it's not good, the reinforcements have all been defeated and become prisoners of others. There were heads on the flagpoles, and they were about to get to the city. "The spy was very loud because he was panicked.
Yang Lin's face was solemn: "You read it right? ”
"The little guarantee is not mistaken, there is such a big Zhao character written on the flag, and there is a human head hanging on it, it is impossible to read it wrong. It's just that the distance is a little far, and I can't see who the head is. The spy gestured with both hands.
"How so?" Yang Lin said in a low voice.
Yang Lin, who came to the city wall, soon saw the fluttering Zhao flag.
"Yuyang County is finished."
The reason why the soldiers in Yuyang County can still stand on the city wall is because they know that they still have reinforcements, and the reinforcements will arrive soon.
But now the reinforcements are waiting for them to be wiped out.
Looking at Zhao Hui who appeared at the east city gate, the soldiers on the city wall were stunned.
Even Li Biao, who was too guarded, had an unbelievable face at this time, completely forgetting to boost morale, and muttered: "Why ......"
But even if he remembered to boost morale at this time, it would be useless.
When Zhao Hui appeared at the East City Gate with more than 10,000 captives, the outcome of Yuyang County was already doomed.
"Lord Taishou, let's surrender." Yang Lin said in a low voice.
Whether it was the soldiers, the generals, or the other officials in the city, no one was willing to continue to resist at this moment.
Stubbornly resisting to the end, they have only a dead end.
They didn't have a deep hatred with Zhao Hui, so why should they take the lives of their whole family.
They surrendered, even if their official positions would be dismissed by Zhao Hui, but at least they could save their lives, and if they were lucky, they might not be reused by Zhao Hui, and they would have a bright future in the future.
"Your Excellency voted for it."
Not only Yang Lin is persuading, but other people who are not low are also persuading.
Looking at their eyes, Li Biao knew that if he dared to shake his head now, these people would immediately come up, tie him up with a rope, and send him to Zhao Hui.
Don't look at them now, they are still screaming one by one, but if Li Biao doesn't care about their interests, he will turn his face faster than anything else.
"Hey, let's open the city." Li Biao sighed.
If the others surrender, it is said that the fate in the future will be good or bad, but as the Taishou of Yuyang County, he will definitely not have a good time in the future.
He was forced to surrender. If he had taken the initiative to surrender when Zhao Hui's army had just arrived, perhaps he might be reused in the future.
Now Li Biao only hopes that his surrender can save his life, and he doesn't dare to ask for anything else.
