As soon as Xiahou Yuan died, the morale of Cao's cavalry army immediately plummeted, and many people chose to surrender and flee. There were also many Cao cavalry troops who rushed to Xue Rengui desperately, wanting to kill Xue Rengui and avenge Xiahou Yuan.

At this time, another 10,000 cavalry were killed from a distance, and it was Gao Changgong who rushed over with the cavalry.

Cao Caijun was once again flanked by the front and back, and suddenly collapsed.

Hao Zhao's side was still resisting Wei Yan, but the large army on that side collapsed. The morale of Hao Zhao's soldiers also plummeted, and Hao Zhao really couldn't hold on anymore, so he immediately disengaged from Wei Yan and retreated towards Duling.

But before he arrived at Duling, he was surrounded by Gao Changgong and his troops. Hao Zhao appeased more than 2,000 cavalry along the way, but these people had no morale and chose to surrender without thinking about it.

Hao Zhao has no choice, there are less than twenty people who dare to fight with him, in the face of tens of thousands of enemy troops, Hao Zhao does not have the courage to choose to break through, after all, he is not known for his bravery.

"Surrender!" Hao Zhao made the wisest choice.

Gao Changgong did not persuade Hao Zhao to surrender, but asked people to send him to Nanyang and then to Shouchun. He himself went directly to attack Du Ling, and Du Ling Ling chose to surrender. Gao Changgong left a thousand defenders and went straight to Chang'an.

Xue Rengui was rushing to Chang'an, he gathered the Cao army cavalry all the way, this group of deserters could escape, and if they couldn't escape, they chose to surrender, and when Xue Rengui arrived in Chang'an, he had collected more than 3,000 Cao army and fled horses.

Wei Yan cleaned up the battlefield in the back, and in the battle of Lantian, not many Cao soldiers were killed, not even a thousand people, except for those who surrendered, basically all fled.

There were a lot of war horses and a lot of prisoners left on the battlefield, and he needed to put away all these trophies.

Wei Rui also received the news that Xiahou Yuan had been defeated, and he immediately waved his army to Chang'an, and sent people to Huaili to transfer troops.

Huaili's current leader is Hua Rong, since entering Liangzhou, Hua Rong has always been with the army, but he has no chance to lead the army alone. He and Yang Zhi both followed Xue Rengui and followed him in dozens of battles, and they also made meritorious contributions.

Both of them are old men who have followed Zhang Yi for a long time, and they have always given up the opportunity to make meritorious contributions to others before. These newcomers were basically sent to be stationed in various places, and Xue Rengui and Wei Rui also led the troops out, and the Huaili battalion was under the command of the two.

After receiving the news from Wei Rui, the two immediately discussed, Hua Rong took 20,000 infantry troops to Chang'an to join the army, and Yang Zhi took 5,000 people to the north of Weishui, all the way to attack Maoling, Pingling, Anling, Changling, Yangling and march to Gaoling.

As the name suggests, this is the site of an emperor's mausoleum. Maoling is the spiritual seat of Emperor Liu Che of the Han Dynasty, Pingling is the tomb of Emperor Liu Fu of the Han Zhao, Anling is the tomb of Emperor Hui of the Han Dynasty, Changling is the tomb of Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and Yangling is the tomb of Emperor Jing of the Han Dynasty.

Gaoling is Zuo Fengyi's place of governance, Yang Zhi came all the way from the killing, and directly intercepted the enemy troops around Zuo Fengyi.

Because Guanzhong focused on defending Chang'an, there were not many soldiers and horses in other places, and Zuo Fengyi's soldiers and horses were stationed because they were ravaged by the Huns before. Later, the Southern Xiongnu surrendered, and these soldiers and horses became the people who supervised the Southern Xiongnu, but the number was only three or four thousand thousand, plus the Huns who could be mobilized, there were only more than 10,000 people.

Yang Zhi blocked the road and blocked the main road to block the reinforcements at Zuo Feng Yi, and it would take them several more days to make a detour.

After Xue Rengui, Wei Rui, Gao Changgong, Zhuge Liang, Hua Rong and others converged in Chang'an, they immediately began to attack.

Chang'an has been repaired by Zhong Xuan, Zhang Ji and others over the years, and has somewhat restored some of its former prestige. When Cao Cao retreated, he left behind 30,000 soldiers and horses, and Xiahou Yuan and Zhang He brought out 20,000, but they fled scattered and returned less than 2,000.

Originally, the three generals in the city, Xiahou Yuan was killed in battle, Zhang He was seriously injured, and Hao Zhao was arrested. And Zhong Miao followed Cao Cao back to the army to sit in Luoyang, and Chang'an City could only rely on Zhang Ji alone.

Zhang is not only a native of Gaoling from Zuo Fengyi, but he is from the Hanmen Shu clan, but he is very talented, and he can be described as both civil and military.

Zhang has been an official in Zuo Fengyi in his early years, and the military and county officials have always achieved the Xinfeng Order, and his political achievements are the first in the county, and he is one of the few people who has been promoted as filial piety and Maocai. In history, he served as the assassin of Yongzhou, and led troops to attack Hanzhong, and quelled many rebellions in Liangzhou.

Therefore, when there were no generals available in the city, Zhang Ji himself commanded the arrangement of the city defense.

But how could Xue Rengui, Wei Rui and the others let him arrange it with peace of mind, and the next day they assembled a large number of wells, ladders and punches outside the city. He also cut down a lot of trees to make a crash, and then launched an attack on the city.

Zhang saw a car crash outside the city, and immediately ordered the city gate to be blocked. The soldiers blocked the gate with stones, and the car could not open the gate at all.

But the crash was never the main force of Zhang Yijun's siege, and Zhang Yijun's strongest siege equipment was always a trebuchet. Even without trebuchets, the well is very powerful.

Countless arrows were fired from the well, and they immediately suppressed the defenders of the city. Those strong crossbows can easily tear through leather armor and take people's lives.

Moreover, a new weapon appeared on the well wall, and a hundred pieces of Zhuge Liang's improved repeater were sent to the well wall. This new type of repeater can fire ten arrows in a row, and its power is undiminished, and the powerful firepower directly blinds the defenders on the city wall. Dead and wounded, the rest fled.

The foot soldiers easily attacked the urn city and gained a firm foothold on the urn city. Hua Rong climbed to the top of the city with the foot soldiers and commanded the battle.

Zhang killed a few deserters on the city wall, reprimanded loudly, and told the soldiers to return to fight.

Hua Rong was attracted by Zhang Ji's voice, and seeing that Zhang Ji was a big official, Hua Rong immediately drew an arrow and shot at Zhang Ji.

Zhang Ji saw an arrow flying in his spare eye, and immediately flashed. But it was still a little late, I was shot in the shoulder, and I was taken to the ground.

Cao Jun saw Zhang Ji fall to the ground, and many people thought that Zhang Ji was dead, and immediately began to flee.

Zhang Jiqiang endured the pain and got up from the ground and said to the soldiers: "I am not dead yet, all go back to fight." ”

But before the words fell, Hua Rong took more than a dozen foot soldiers to kill in front of Zhang Ji, and the first knife of the ring was on his neck.

Zhang Ji is indeed talented, but his own bravery is not strong, he wants to kill himself, but he was tied up by Zhang Yi's soldiers.

Zhang was captured, and the city was immediately leaderless, and in less than two hours, the city gate was broken. Hua Rong led people to clean up the stones at the city gate, opened the city gate and let Xue Rengui and others enter the city.
