Cao's army retreated, and Zhang Fei and Dian Wei urgently strengthened the city wall while sending people to Han Fei to report the situation. In fact, there is no need for his sect to send people, Han Fei has been paying attention to the situation here. Seeing that the loss was too huge, Han Fei also felt a little unbearable. If it goes on like this, there will be no more battles to fight, and there will be wounded soldiers left in his hands.

But it had come to this point to let Han Fei withdraw his troops, and he was a little unwilling. So he sent scouts to find out when Gao Ran's reinforcements would arrive. I thought that Gao Ran's reinforcements would arrive soon, but I didn't know that there would be no news as soon as the scouts left. Gao Lan's reinforcements did not wait, and the siege troops of Xiahoudun and Li Dian arrived first.

At this time, night had fallen, and Cao Jun launched another attack on the collapse of the city wall of Xicheng with torches. Although you, Liu Bei's soldiers, tried their best to resist, it didn't take long for the gap to be opened, and Cao Jun followed the gap and killed it.

As soon as Zhang Fei saw Cao Jun coming again, he took his men and horses to go up. At this time, Xiahoudun stepped forward and fought with Zhang Fei. Zhang Fei had already fought for a while before, and he had consumed a lot of physical strength, so when he fought with Xiahoudun again, Zhang Fei couldn't defeat him quickly. Instead, he was entangled by Xiahoudun and couldn't support his soldiers.

At this time, Li Dian led people to advance all the way and defeated Liu Beijun's soldiers. Just then, the sound of breaking through the air sounded, and the crossbowmen arrived. The crossbow fired the power of Cao Jun in an instant, and Li Dian's offensive slowed down.

Zhang Fei used a spear at this time to force Xiahoudun back, and then turned around and ran to Li Dian to kill him. Li Dian was anxious and there was no good way, so he gritted his teeth and simply discharged the death squad, holding a shield and braving the rain of arrows to push forward.

Anyway, this repeater is easy to use, but the cost of crossbow arrows is too fast. After the day's fighting, there were less than 10,000 crossbow arrows left, and at this moment, after three rounds of fire, the crossbowmen found that they were running out of crossbow arrows in their hands. So while they sent someone to find Han Fei and ask for crossbow arrows, they had to slow down the speed of archery. Li Dian was the first to notice that the rain of arrows had become less dense, so he was overjoyed and was about to command the team to move forward to kill.

At this moment, Zhang Fei arrived, and the Zhangba snake spear stabbed Li Dian in the back with a cold wind. Li Dian heard that the evil wind behind him was not good. He rolled directly off the horse, and although he was embarrassed, he also dodged Zhang Fei's blow.

Seeing Li Dian escape, Zhang Fei stabbed his mount to death with a spear, and then swung a snake spear and chased Li Dian to kill him. Just before he could take a few steps, Xiahoudun rushed over from behind and became entangled with Zhang Fei again.

Han Fei also got the report at this moment, and the crossbow arrows were gone. He suddenly felt that something was wrong, and ordered the soldiers to go to the craftsman's camp to check how many crossbow arrows they had taken out. While urgently ordering Dian Wei, who had bandaged his wounds, to fight, he quickly went to pick up Zhang Fei. Not only Dian Wei, but even Chen Dao, who was injured before, was sent out by Han Fei. Except for the seriously injured Ma Chao, Han Fei sent all his generals to the battlefield.

But even so, when Xiahou Yuan led the tiger and leopard cavalry and his soldiers to attack, Liu Beijun was defeated. Seeing that the crossbowmen had exhausted all their crossbow arrows, they had no choice but to withdraw first. Then Zhang Fei and Dian Wei led their men and horses to fight and retreat, and they had already given up half of Julu City to Cao Jun.

Han Fei listened to the shouts and killings from far and near in the Taishou Mansion, and couldn't help but sigh: "Pack up your things, call General Shangma, let's withdraw first!" Seeing that Cao's army was powerful, Han Fei decided to avoid its edge, and it was better to preserve his strength now.

In this way, Han Fei and Ma Chao withdrew from Julu City from Dongcheng with the remaining soldiers. After learning that Han Fei had withdrawn, Zhang Fei Dianwei and Chen Zhi had no intention of fighting, and soon withdrew from Julu City with all their men and horses.

In this way, after Liu Bei's army withdrew, Cao Jun finally occupied the city. But they also paid a price of 10,000 horses. Cao Cao's 50,000 army when he sent out his troops was less than 20,000 at the moment, that is to say, he directly lost more than 30,000 men and horses for this giant deer city, Cao Cao felt heartache after learning the casualty figures, and at the same time loved and hated Han Fei, if Han Fei hadn't seen through Bao Yan, Cong Ke would have taken Julu City without blood. Then the army of 50,000 drove straight in, which could be attacked and defended with great ease. As it is now, the remaining 10,000 pairs of people can only be stationed here, and there is no possibility of moving forward.

Although Han Fei lost Julu City in this battle, he also successfully crippled Cao Jun! made Cao Cao's plan to go north abortive, which can be regarded as an unexpected gain. After Cao Cao was put down and stationed in Julu City, the city was corrected and Zhang Bang was not mentioned. Besides, Han Fei took his men and horses and left the city twenty miles later, and stationed on the side of the road, waiting for Zhang Fei and a few people to lead his troops to come.

As a result, a group of people suddenly came from the opposite side, and Han Fei suddenly became alert. ordered his subordinates to be ready for battle, and even Ma Chao took down the big gun and prepared for battle. It turned out to be a false alarm, and it was Gao Lan who came.

Gao Ran was also shocked when he saw Han Fei's men, and when he learned what had happened, he regretted it: "The military advisor blames me this time, if I hadn't rested for a long time on the way, I would definitely have been able to rush to Julu City before Cao's army broke through." ”

Han Fei waved his hand and said, "This time I underestimated Cao Cao's determination to capture the city, I didn't expect Cao Cao's army to fight so resolutely, but even if Cao Cao took the giant deer, he would no longer be able to send troops elsewhere." I have calculated his losses, and I am afraid that there are only 20,000 horses left in the army of 50,000 at this moment. He still has to divide his troops to defend Julu City, so there are no troops to attack other places. ”

Zhang Fei and Dian Wei and the others, who were talking to each other, arrived, and after a while, they found that the 30,000 horses they brought had turned around the original 8,000 people in the city, and there were still 15,000 people left at this moment. However, 2,000 of them were crossbowmen, and 5,000 were overwhelmed by the defenders of the original city.

Han Fei saw that everyone was already tired, so he simply camped on the spot and rested for one night. Han Fei and the others ran out in a hurry, and they didn't have much baggage, but fortunately, they met Gao Lan's troops, so they barely set up the camp! The soldiers were crammed into one of the few tents. Even Han Fei and the others were in a two-person tent, barely resting for one night.

The next day, Han Fei sent someone to Julu to inquire about the news, and at the same time transmitted the news back to Liu Bei. And the army was stationed here waiting for Liu Beixin's order.

Cao Cao kept his promise and appointed Bao Yan as the Taishou of Julu, but the garrison was firmly in Cao Cao's hands. He didn't feel at ease about handing over this position to Bao Yan. As soon as the arrangements were made here, a soldier came to report: Han Fei led Liu Beijun and did not go far, but set up camp twenty miles east of the city.
