Chapter 496: Arrived in time

In less than half an hour, Yu Ban and Xu Chu, who led the army this time, were all captured alive, which was undoubtedly a bolt from the blue for the Wei army, which was originally inferior in numbers, and the leaderless Wei army could only fight on its own, and fell into the predicament of being completely annihilated for a while.

At this time, Liu Feng, who had successfully completed this task, was not in a hurry to get out of this battle, he noticed that many Wei troops had begun to flee to the north in a hurry, and such behavior was increasing, and in a short period of time, nearly 10,000 Wei troops had broken out of the encirclement and fled in the direction of their own country.

Seeing that there were less than 10,000 Wei troops left who were still fighting, Liu Feng ordered his subordinates to raise the handsome flag in their hands high, and shouted in unison: "Those who surrender will not be killed!" ”

For a while, these four words sounded all over the mountains and fields on the outskirts of Wancheng, and most of the Wei army was not moved at first, but as a small part of the Wei army began to waver, and then threw their weapons on the ground and knelt on the ground to surrender, the matter was like a contagion, and more and more people joined the ranks.

Finally, not long after, the land on the outskirts of Wancheng returned to calm, thousands of Wei troops knelt on the ground to surrender, Xu Chu, who had been tied up and awakened by the five flowers, saw this situation, almost so angry that he had to turn his back again, he knew that this time he and Yu Ban were completely in Liu Feng's strategy, and the two of them, especially their own capture, would definitely disrupt Sima Yi and Cao Zhang's original plan in the near future.

But this result for Liu Feng, but it couldn't be better, the whole battle didn't even use an hour, a little earlier than he expected before, seeing this situation, Liu Feng summoned Deng Ai to the front and said: "Shizai led the army of 5,000 to guard in Wancheng, these Wei troops who surrendered were all disarmed and imprisoned in the prison of Wancheng, no matter what happened, they could not be let go before we returned, in addition, once there is an enemy army outside Wancheng, quickly send someone to Shangyong to inform me, if you can't hold it." , then decisively gave up Wancheng and returned to Xiangyang! ”

This sudden series of instructions made Deng Ai quite overwhelmed, but although Deng Ai's mouth was a little stupid, his brain's reaction was still extremely sensitive, and after thinking for a while, he also understood in his heart that although he could not follow Liu Feng to Shangyong, the task of guarding Wancheng was also very heavy.

This time, Liu Feng obviously wants to do his best to bring Zhao Yun and Ma Chao and others to the top, otherwise with the less than 50,000 horses that Liu Feng brought in Xiangyang, it is obvious that it will not cause much trouble to Sima Yi and Cao Zhang's 200,000 army, but doing so will cause Wancheng to be almost the same as not defending, although according to the previous judgment, the Wei army will not have any more troops, but this time they are facing Sima Yi and Cao Zhang, In addition, after reaching Shangyong, most of them will also have a fierce battle with the Wei army, and Liu Feng did this to protect Deng Ai, who still lacked combat experience before the battle, so as not to be unable to care for each other and be damaged when facing many Wei troops.

After assisting Deng Ai to bring the thousands of Wei soldiers to Wancheng City and imprisoned them, Liu Feng hurriedly led the original Wancheng defenders and Xiangyang army with a total of more than 70,000 people, and went straight to the direction of Shangyong, Liu Feng knew what kind of situation Pang Tong and Wei Yan were in Shangyong at this time, he hated to fly over with his wings, but now, he couldn't have a trace of panic, he could only follow the plan agreed with Pang Tong, step by step.

This time, Liu Feng did not hide his whereabouts along the way, but went directly to Shangyong on the nearest road, although he also knew that he would definitely be discovered by Sima Yi's men when he was close to Shangyong, but as long as he could delay Sima Yi's attack on Shangyong, it would be worth it even if he was discovered, not to mention that there were Xu Chu and Yu Ban, the two weaknesses of Sima Yi, in hand, so Liu Feng was planning to swagger in front of Sima Yi, and then he would fight and peace, and the initiative was in his hands.

Under the Shangyong city, this offensive and defensive battle has been going on for almost two days, and from a long distance, you can see that there is almost no normal brick and stone color on the city wall of Shangyong, but it has almost become composed of layers of black or red, the black one is the siege thing after the air drying, and the red one is naturally the blood splashed on the city wall.

In the city, the original more than 40,000 defenders had suffered nearly half of the casualties at this time, and the remaining number was less than 30,000, and there were thousands of wounded soldiers, and Sima Yi, as the attacker, although he also lost more than 30,000 troops, but under his reasonable scheduling, the remaining sergeant offensive was not much weaker than before, and he was still able to continuously put pressure on the defenders, causing casualties.

"Mr. Shiyuan, according to the current situation, if the Wei army's offensive does not slow down before nightfall today, it is very likely that a large number of soldiers will take advantage of the lack of visibility in the night to attack the city wall, causing greater casualties to our army......"

As Wei Yan, who was directly engaged with the Wei army that rushed to the city wall, he was very clear about the situation of the defenders at this time, and immediately informed Pang Tong of the matter.

"No matter what way you use it, no matter how much damage you have, you will hold out until noon tomorrow, and if Your Majesty doesn't arrive at noon tomorrow, you will abandon the city!"

Pang Tong obviously had his own thoughts about the current situation in his heart, and after listening to Wei Yan's report, he paused slightly for a while, and then said to Wei Yan firmly.

Wei Yan saw that Pang Tong was still very firm, and he also bowed his head heavily, and then turned over and killed the city, most of the soldiers in the city had not rested for more than several hours, had not eaten, and had no water, whether they could persist until Pang Tong asked for it, Wei Yan also had no way of knowing, but in his mind, he never thought of withdrawing from Shangyong in advance, because what Liu Feng promised them had not yet been unable to do.

Facts have proved that this time, Liu Feng still did not disappoint them, just less than an hour after Pang Tong gave this order to Wei Yan, Liu Feng had already led the army to the outskirts of Shangyong, which was almost a day ahead of the three days he promised Pang Tong, he knew that if he really waited until three days to arrive at Shangyong, then Pang Tong and Wei Yan must be in danger.

Taking advantage of the fact that the sky had not yet darkened, Liu Feng looked at Shangyong City, which was still full of war, from one side, and then let out a long breath, he knew that this time, his risk was right.
