And so the battle ended.

The 30,000 troops led by Yan Yan, including infantry and a hundred warships, were all wiped out.

There were only more than 3,000 captured Shu soldiers, and it is estimated that the lucky ones who escaped by swimming in the water were only in the hundreds, and all the rest were killed on the battlefield, or were killed by the advancing Wei army after being wounded.

A large number of generals below Yan Yan, the chief general of the Shu army, were killed in battle, and more than 100 corpses of officers were found alone, and the battalion was basically burned down, and everything was burned to the ground.

Under the First World War, the main force of the Shu army was destroyed, and the Wei army achieved a brilliant victory, which was a proof of the status that Lejin had always desired.

However, after learning of Yan Yan's last battle reported by Li Dian, Le Jin was silent for a while, and came to Yan Yan's coffin with Li Dian and saluted him.

"What a warrior."

Le Jin paid tribute to Yan Yan and the Shu soldiers who died with him, personally presided over the ceremony of burying them, and then led the army forward without looking back.

Brave and unyielding people deserve respect because their integrity is noble.

But the enemy is not worth remembering, and everyone who stands in front of the Wei army's soldiers will die.

The pace of Lejin will not stop, and the pace of the Wei army's advance will not stop.

Their goal is Chengdu, it is Liu Zhang, it is to destroy Shu Han, occupy Yizhou, and end the split.

For this, at all costs.

On the first day of the third month of the second year of Yande, Le Jin led the main force of the Wei army of 50,000 people to cross Wu County and enter the area of Zhiyufu County, Badong County, where the defense line of the Shu army was located.

The pioneer Li Dian fought a big battle with the Shu Han defenders near Yufu County, defeated more than 1,000 Shu Han defenders, and opened the road to Yufu.

Before Yufu, the Shu army did not have any line of defense, and the Wei army, both land and water, advanced hand in hand, forming a strong impact on Yufu.

After the destruction of the main force, the Shu army defenders who stayed in Yufu only had 20,000 soldiers, and Lejin's letter of persuasion had been sent to Yufu in advance.

At this moment, the supreme military commander of Yufu naturally became Wu Ban.

After learning the news of Yan Yan's death in battle and the destruction of the main force of the Shu army, Wu Ban almost fainted, and he held on to his body without falling.

Le Jin said that Yan Yan died unyieldingly, and the Shu army was annihilated, which was not the situation he wanted to see.

He admired Yan Yan's integrity, but he didn't think much of his approach, and he hoped that Wu Ban would consider the people and soldiers in Shuzhong and not repeat Yan Yan's mistakes.

Yan Yan's 30,000 main forces have all been wiped out, can Yufu, a defender with less than 20,000 people whose military morale is shaken, really face the main force of the 50,000 Wei army?

Le Jin asked Wu Ban to weigh it carefully, he gave Wu Ban two days and asked him to make a decision, as soon as the two days were up, he would inevitably wave his troops to attack, and it would be really too late to surrender when the time came.

There are limits to his patience and Wei Tianzi's tolerance.

This is Wu Ban's last chance.

When the news reached Yufu, the Shu army was already in turmoil, and people's hearts were fluctuating, because a small number of defeated troops who fled back from Wuxian were saying that Yan Yan had been defeated, the whole army had been annihilated, and the battle had been lost, and they were finished.

Originally, Wu Ban disposed of this news as a troubled army, and was about to lead his troops to see the situation, but before he set off, the Wei army's letter of persuasion was delivered.

At this moment, Wu Ban had to believe and face this situation.

In short, it's those two words - it's over.

Yan Yan lost the main force in the first battle, Yufu only had a defensive force of nearly 20,000 people, and there were only more than 30 naval warships left.

Although there were still more than 50,000 people and auxiliaries carrying grain, in the face of the main force of the Wei army of 50,000, Wu Ban did not have any confidence to win the battle.

Wu Ban still understands the difference between the people and the auxiliary soldiers and the regular army, even if these people are used as cannon fodder, they will not be used, at most they will die and block the river and prevent the Wei ships from passing.

There is no other way.

Now that the news of the destruction of the main force of Yan Yan's death has spread, the whole army is panicked, everyone is in danger, there is no courage and preparation for the battle at all, and the defense has also stagnated.

Two days have passed, Wu Ban still has not made a decision, Le Jin shook his head, decided not to wait any longer, and gave an order to the Wei army, and the whole army attacked Yufu.

The main force of the Wei army was dispatched, and attacked the Shu army Dazhai separately, and the water army and the infantry army marched hand in hand, breaking the Shu army formation and Dazhai with trebuchets and land battles, and destroying 17 Shu army Dazhai in a company, and the triumphant song was played.

The Shu army has no will to fight, from the officers to the soldiers are panicked, morale is low, once in contact the army will be defeated like a mountain, there is no need for the Wei army to spend much effort to push all the way, and the number of Wei troops is far more than the number of soldiers of the Shu army, it is not difficult to push flat.

In this way, the dangerous punishment around Yufu County was divided into Wei army, Yan Yan's Yufu defense line operated before the war was basically destroyed, the Shu army lost no number of soldiers, and more than 30,000 soldiers and auxiliary soldiers were captured and captured, and a large amount of grain and grass were captured.

Basically, what Yan Yan didn't have time to use was captured by the Wei army.

The last remnants of the Shu army retreated to the White Emperor City and Qutang Pass, and the closed city was defended to resist the attack of the Wei army.

After that, the Wei army's naval division completely annihilated the Shu army's naval division and seized control of the water, while the infantry army entered the Qutang Pass, stormed the Qutang Pass, and prepared to further seize the White Emperor City and open the road into Shu.

The great name of the White Emperor City is not weaker than that of later generations at this moment, but the point of paying attention to the White Emperor City is different from that of later generations.

Later generations paid attention to the White Emperor City because Liu Bei died here, and people at this moment paid attention to the White Emperor City because it was built by Gongsun Shu.

During the Xinmang period, Gongsun Shu cut off Shuzhong, because he found "white gas" here, so he regarded this place as the auspicious rui of "White Emperor Revival", and called himself "White Emperor", trying to retake the road of Liu Bang's "Red Emperor", so he built a city here, named White Emperor City.

Of course, this White Emperor is not as good as the Red Emperor, and it is difficult for the copycat to surpass the original.

So he was defeated.

But the White Emperor City remained, and Qutang Pass still existed.

In the south of the White Emperor City, the Yangtze River cross-cuts Qiyao Mountain to form Qutang Gorge, Qutang Pass is set up at the mouth of Qutang Gorge, the two mountains confront each other, the middle runs through the big river, the danger of Qutang Pass, and the Sword Pavilion Pass is equally famous, it is the place where soldiers must fight.

As early as the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chu State carried out many military operations here, and Qutang Pass also appeared at that time and has been used to this day.

Guo Jia first discussed with Le Jin when he analyzed the battle situation, saying that the Shu army could not be allowed to place the main force in these places without pulling it out, otherwise it would be too difficult for them to attack these dangerous areas.

Fortunately, Yan Yan did not disappoint Guo Jia, and he attacked bravely.

Now Wu Ban with a group of frightened remnants of the defeated army will hold Qutang Pass to resist the attack of the Wei army, and its resistance ability is completely incomparable with the previous 50,000 troops.

The Wei army set up many trebuchets and violently attacked Qutang Pass with earth-shaking thunder and fierce fire oil cans, and the defenders of Qutang Pass had long lost the will to fight and could not insist on resisting the onslaught of the Wei army, and Qutang Pass was captured by the Wei army.

Qutang Pass was lost, the White Emperor City faced the attack of the Wei army, and the throat of the road into Shu lost all the barriers, and was all taken by the Wei army, Wu Ban was trapped in the lonely city, with two thousand remnants stationed in the White Emperor City, desperately looking at the Wei army all over the mountains.

"General, are we going to die here?"

Wu Ban's personal soldiers couldn't hold back their despair and asked Wu Ban questions.

Wu Ban looked at the Wei army and the battle flags of the Wei army all over the mountains, looked up at the sky, and sighed.

"The kingdom is going to die, what is the point of dying?"

After saying this, Wu Ban ordered Kaecheng to surrender, stop resisting, and handed over the White Emperor City to the Wei army intact.
