Cao Xiaoda frowned.

He didn't believe that Pei Zilie would lead the army to the city gate at this time, wasn't Pei Zilie worried that reinforcements would be sent in the city? Therefore, it stands to reason that as long as Wei Chishun can retreat to a range of half a mile away from Xiangyang City, then he will be considered to have escaped.

But why is Pei Zilie still chasing after him now?

"Uncle!" Wei Chikuan finally couldn't help it, "I led three thousand soldiers and horses to meet it, I don't need anything else, as long as these soldiers and horses under the command of the sixth brother who retreated first, we have our backs to the city, and there are a lot of people, Pei Zilie will definitely not dare to pursue rashly!" ”

And the rest of the generals also looked at it, obviously having the same idea as Wei Chikuan. Everyone knows that the major general is the old general's favorite and important son, and if the major general has any accidents, everyone will not be able to explain it.

Cao Xiaoda was about to speak, but Wei Chikuan stepped forward: "This dispatch is just to use the soldiers and horses under the original command of the sixth brother, and I also ask my uncle for permission!" ”

Cao Xiaoda's face changed, he vaguely sensed that something was wrong, and there was even a little hostility in the eyes of the generals around him.

Although this Xiangyang City is dominated by Cao Xiaoda, after all, it is Wei Chi Yuan's Xiangyang City, and Wei Chi Kuan, as the eldest son of Wei Chi Yuan, is the real object of loyalty of these city generals now. And although Cao Xiaoda is there, he must also pay attention to his identity, it is not a good thing to dominate the crowd, especially for the current situation where the enemy's army is pressing.

The external troubles are serious enough, and of course there can be no more internal worries.

So now Cao Xiaoda has no choice: "You must be careful!" ”

Yu Chikuan took a deep breath, he knew what kind of character Cao Xiaoda was, and it was already very happy that he could relax at this time.

Watching Wei Chikuan walk down the city gate quickly surrounded by the generals, Cao Xiaoda had a feeling of helplessness for a while, this Xiangyang City seemed to be under his control, but with so many constraints, how could he really preside over the defense of the entire Xiangyang?

Wei Chishun's initiative to retreat this time was indeed an order issued by Cao Xiaoda, after the mountain could not be held, if Tanxi still held on here, it would be equivalent to exposing his back to the enemy, and in the previous battle in Longzhong, Yu Chishun failed, which is enough to prove that the gap between Yu Chishun and Pei Zilie in terms of strength is very serious.

And this gap in strength for a while is not something that can be made up by the quality and equipment of the soldiers, especially Pei Zilie is not at a disadvantage in these two.

Therefore, Cao Xiaoda did not expect that Wei Chishun would be able to face Pei Zilie and Ren Zhong at the same time in the direction of Tanxi, and it was already very good to be able to block Ren Zhong before.

But obviously Wei Chishun didn't think so, he insisted on sending 3,000 soldiers and horses as ambush soldiers, but in the end it evolved into the current uncontrollable situation, and even made Wei Chikuan send another 3,000 soldiers and horses to support, which means that the 6,000 troops originally stationed on the bank of Tanxi once again all participated in the battle.

Cao Xiaoda sighed deeply, and the fist in his hand slammed on the battlements: "Transfer 2,000 soldiers and horses to General Zhichong (author's note: Wei Chikuan's official rank)." ”

Just going with 3,000 soldiers and horses is tantamount to a sheep entering the tiger's mouth, at least 2,000 more people, which can play a big role.

As for the success or failure of this battle······

Cao Xiaoda subconsciously looked up at the sky.

Maybe only God knows.

——————————————-

Wei Chishun fled in a panic, the entire army had completely collapsed, and Pei Zilie's department still had Chen Zhishen as the vanguard, chasing after him.

This did make Wei Chishun a little surprised, after all, there was Xiangyang City not far ahead, and at this time, the defenders of Xiangyang had obviously taken action, and it could be seen that the entire city of Xiangyang had been illuminated by lights, and the outline of this majestic city appeared in everyone's realization.

At the beginning, when he scattered and broke through, there were still more than 100 people around Wei Chishun, and now there are only seven or eight guards left, some of whom have been scattered, and of course, many more are slow-paced, and they were finally caught up by the enemy behind and wanted their lives. At this time, Wei Chishun could only be annoyed why he was walking instead of riding a war horse in the first place.

It's not a good feeling like a lost dog.

"General be careful!" A guard was quick and stopped behind Wei Chishun, and a few arrows whistled and pierced his chest in an instant, and the guard didn't snort and fell to the ground and died. The remaining guards hurriedly gathered and covered Wei Chishun.

"Capture Wei Chishun alive!" The voice behind him was getting louder and louder, Chen Zhishen played all night, not only was he tired, but he became more and more energetic, and his loud voice was the most recognizable among all the voices.

"Capture Wei Chishun alive!" The next moment, the sound echoed all over the surrounding mountains.

Wei Chishun turned his head and looked at the firelights that were getting closer and closer, gradually illuminating half of the sky, and the firelights that were rolling like a trend, and he was in a trance for a while.

I didn't expect that one day I would fall into this field.

"Sixth brother!" At this moment, the sound of chaotic footsteps suddenly sounded in front of me, followed by a loud shout.

Yu Chishun looked up in surprise, only to see a figure suddenly burst out in the dark, the crossbow in his hand shot at Yu Chishun's back, and a Bashu soldier fell in response, and the figure strangled the war horse in front of Yu Chishun and stretched out his hand: "Sixth brother, get on the horse!" ”

Wei Chishun hurriedly stretched out his hand, and a group of crossbowmen spread out from the left and right sides, constantly pouring arrows on those Bashu soldiers who rushed up.

"Let's go!" Wei Chikuan roared loudly and slapped his horse fiercely.

The Northern Zhou soldiers who followed him did not hesitate and retreated again, and at this time, the Bashu army had just been forced back by that round of arrow rain and had not had time to catch up, so this was a rare gap for a short time.

Wei Chishun felt his brother's strong palm and exhaled a long breath, but before he could follow his brother back to the city, a sharp roar suddenly came from one side, and Yu Chishun almost subconsciously pushed Yu Chikuan off the horse, and he also turned over and went down. An arrow almost grazed his scalp, and a moment later more arrows shot Wei Chikuan's mount into a hedgehog!

Yu Chi Kuan got up from the ground with difficulty, his arms and legs were already numb, it must be because Yu Chi Shun's strength just now was not small. And his war horse neighed, galloped a few steps, and fell to the ground. Wei Chikuan didn't dare to imagine that if Wei Chishun's movements were a little slower just now, or if he grabbed the reins of the horse a little tighter, would it be almost the same as a war horse at this time.

Wei Chikuan staggered to his saber and stood up, looking around, between light and darkness, several cavalrymen who followed him had fallen from arrows. And there were killing voices all around, and I didn't know how many enemies there were, and I didn't know where the enemies came from.
