Fei Guan led the soldiers and horses to flee towards the Dianjiang River, the arrival of the cavalry, so that the high-spirited Li Yan suffered a huge loss, Li Yan found that these soldiers who met the battle, the combat effectiveness was not strong, and he dispelled the doubts in his heart, at most it can only be said that the enemy army in the face of a surprise attack, the speed of reaction is very fast.

After defeating the Chang'an army, the benefits obtained are difficult for Li Yan to refuse, not only to enhance his prestige in the army, but also to obtain more credit, Li Yan is a person who is not willing to be lonely, originally thought that he could be reused after taking refuge in Liu Bei, who knew that after being named a general, there was no other movement.

And at this station, he will use victory to show his ability, so that the generals in the Yizhou army dare not despise him in the slightest.

The strong combat power shown by the cavalry shattered Li Yan's dream, and the strength of the cavalry made the army under Li Yan's command panic for a short time, while the Chang'an army, which was like sheep, showed a strong side, and became fearless of death when attacking.

Li Yan suddenly understood something, and hurriedly ordered the army to retreat, he was sure that the enemy army had been prepared before his own surprise attack, and everything before was just a deliberate show for him, otherwise how could he explain that the enemy army suddenly became stronger.

This raid lasted for two hours, of course, the soldiers in the Chang'an army were also relatively hard, when facing the Yizhou army at the beginning, they could not use all their strength, and they had to show some vulnerability, so that the Yizhou army could see hope, and finally waited for the opportunity to counterattack, but the Yizhou army retreated, which made many soldiers secretly scold the Yizhou army for being incompetent.

Li Yan retreated, but Pang Tong led an army of 5,000 towards Dianjiang, and there were 500 cavalry in the 5,000 army.

Fei Guan gathered the defeated soldiers on the way, but met Li Yan.

"General Li, how is the raid going?" Fei Guan asked, this is the problem he is most concerned about, just on the west side of the camp, he is under great pressure, if Li Yan fails to succeed, the sacrificed soldiers can only be in vain.

"General Fei, you can't stay here for a long time, so return to the city as soon as possible." Li Yan's voice was a little anxious, and after thinking of a possibility, his uneasy feeling became even stronger, what kind of person is Pang Tong, Li Yan had a certain understanding before this, after all, Pang Tong was a strategist under the account of King Jin.

"Back in the city?" Fei Guan looked puzzled.

Li Yan said: "Our army raided the Chang'an Army tonight, did General Fei feel that something was wrong?" ”

Fei Guan pondered for a moment and said, "The enemy army seems to be on guard. ”

After speaking, Fei Guan's complexion changed greatly, if this is the case, wouldn't it be said that there are enemy troops among the generals in the city, at this time the army in the city has dispatched 6,000 people, the city is empty, if the enemy army raids the city, then the Dianjiang will be dangerous.

After seeing Fei Guan and understanding the truth, Li Yan said: "Now it is the best policy to stick to the city, but the general is a little too anxious, and he raids the enemy army and does not want to fall into the current situation." ”

Fei Guan said: "General Li doesn't need to blame himself. ”

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the city wall of Dianjiang and saw that the banner on the city was still the cavalry of the Yizhou Army.

"Who is the guard of the city, and open the gates of the city quickly." Li Yan shouted.

Qin Du shouted: "General Li waits for a while, and the last general will order someone to open the city gate and welcome the general into the city." ”

Li Yan looked puzzled, the guard of the north gate was not this person, but the person specially arranged by Li Yan, it is said that his own army raided the Chang'an army, and the guard he arranged should be in the city.

After the city gate creaked open, Fei Guan saw that Li Yan did not give an order, and wondered: "General Li, the city gate has been opened, why don't you let the army enter the city?" ”

"Don't go into town just yet." Li Yan ordered.

"General, the enemy army may send people to catch up, if it enters the city, the enemy army will take advantage of the victory to pursue, what should we do?" Fei Guan asked, and the generals in the army looked at Li Yan with some doubts.

Li Yan shouted: "All the soldiers should retreat, and they must not be close to the distance of three hundred steps of the city wall. ”

Although the generals of the army were a little confused, they still acted according to the order, and at this moment, the sound of boulders and crossbow arrows breaking through the air was heard, and the officers and men of the army who could not escape were killed and wounded.

After Fei Guan saw this scene, how could he not understand what was happening in the city.

"As a soldier of the imperial court, you are secretly taking refuge in the traitor." Li Yan scolded: "If we meet on the battlefield in the coming day, General Ben will definitely kill you." ”

Qin Du laughed and said: "General Li should not be ashamed here, this general has already taken refuge in the King of Jin, but you are ignorant, with a weak military strength, you dare to fight against the army of the King of Jin, and the person who dies in the future will be you." Although he didn't understand where Li Yan saw the flaw, but since it was discovered, he didn't plan to hide it.

Li Yan's complexion kept changing, he didn't expect that because of his order, he would lose Dianjiang, needless to say that the loss of Dianjiang must have happened when he led the army to raid the enemy, from this matter, Li Yan felt the horror of Pang Tong, when he decided to raid, but he was an important general in the army, and they were all trustworthy people, Qin Du was the original defender of Dianjiang City, but he took refuge in the King of Jin, it can be seen that Lu Bu was ready when he ordered the army to attack Ba County.

And Pang Tong was able to conclude that his own army would raid and seize Dianjiang instead, which made him feel the terrible thing about Pang Tong's strategy.

"Shameless, I took refuge in a traitor, and I dare to be so presumptuous in front of this general." Li Yan said angrily.

"General, now that Dianjiang has been captured by the enemy, you should retreat to Deyang as soon as possible." Fei Guan Dao.

Li Yan nodded helplessly, he suddenly felt that he was a failure, and he came with an army of five thousand, originally thinking that he could achieve a prestige in Dianjiang, but he didn't want to be defeated in the hands of his own people.

"Retreat." Li Yan ordered.

Many soldiers quietly left the army after learning that Dianjiang City had now been occupied by the army of King Jin, and many of the soldiers were people from Dianjiang, and they did not want to follow Li Yan to Deyang, this kind of thing is a very common thing in the defeated army.

Li Yan led the army back to Deyang overnight, and after careful interrogation, he saw that Deyang City was still in the hands of his own army, and his expression was much more relaxed, and after the battle of Dianjiang, there were only more than 3,000 soldiers and horses left in Li Yan's hands, many of whom either fled in the process of fighting, or were captured by the enemy.

There are more than 1,000 defenders in Deyang City, plus the soldiers and horses in Li Yan's hands, there are more than 4,500 people, compared to Dianjiang, Deyang City is much shorter, and it is very reluctant to defend against the enemy's attack.
