When Jiang Wan led 3,000 soldiers to attack behind Guo Huai, in fact, Wu Yi and Liu Yin really didn't notice the changes on the battlefield for a while.

One, the sky has begun to darken, and the entire battlefield is shrouded in the light of dusk, and the vision has been greatly affected.

On the other hand, Wu Yi and Liu Yin had been being pressed and beaten by the Wei army before, and all their attention was on commanding the soldiers to resist, so they couldn't be distracted at all, plus Guo Huai's Chinese army was also some distance from the battlefield, so for the first time, neither of them noticed Jiang Wan's arrival.

Although the two didn't realize that Jiang Wan had led the troops to join the battlefield at the first time, as the situation on the battlefield changed, these two also sensed that something was wrong, why did the Wei army's offensive rhythm slow down, and there was even a faint tendency to withdraw from the battlefield? !

Could it be that you don't plan to fight at night?!

And at this time, the first person to notice that something was wrong was Wu Yi.

Wu Yi is a famous general in Sichuan, and his battlefield experience is much richer than Liu Yin's, and to tell the truth, although Liu Yin is very talented in defense, his main job is still to govern the local Taishou, and the battlefield experience is really not as good as a military general like Wu Yi.

When Liu Yin was still working hard to command the soldiers to repel the frontal attack of the Wei army, Wu Yi realized that the Wei army's offensive had delayed and retreated, which made Wu Yi get out of the command of the local battlefield for the first time and began to examine the entire battlefield situation.

Although Wu Yi's vision was very limited because the sky was getting darker and darker, he could still see that Guo Huai's position of the Chinese army had changed, and there seemed to be a battle in the eastern direction, although the intensity was not large, but this was the only reason that could explain why Guo Huai moved the position of the Chinese army.

Based on Wu Yi's experience, he thought about it a little and immediately came to a conclusion. Guo Huai's rear army was attacked by an army, and this army can basically be concluded to be his own people.

Although Wu Yi didn't know why Guo Huai would have his own people behind him, but the current situation is like this, what kind of response Guo Huai will make next, Wu Yi has already guessed.

Therefore, Wu Yi ordered the whole army to enter a counteroffensive at that time, try to hold back the Wei army in front of him, and not let the Wei army retreat easily.

But. It's not easy.

Whether it is the Northern Army led by Wu Yi or the Huaili garrison under Liu Yin, they are already in a state of exhaustion after a long battle.

Although affected by the arrival of reinforcements, it barely boosted some morale and dragged a part of the Wei army back, but when Guo Huai personally commanded the cavalry to carry out the assault, it was still unable to hold the enemy out of the battle.

The cavalry is cavalry after all, even if the soldiers of the Northern Army can block the impact of the cavalry with the Eight Formations, but if they want to completely defeat the cavalry and continue to pursue the Wei army's foot soldiers, they still can't do it.

Therefore, when the Wei army's infantry completely withdrew from the battlefield and the cavalry was cruising behind the break, Wu Yi had to order to close the formation, suspend the pursuit, and watch the Wei army slowly withdraw from the battlefield in order to avoid greater casualties.

On the north side of the battlefield, the 4,000 soldiers of the Wei army completely fell into a situation of fighting alone after the main force withdrew from the battlefield.

After Jiang Wan found that he had lost the opportunity for the Chinese army to surprise him, although he was very annoyed, he still fought hard, turned the direction of the attack, and began to attack the 4,000 Wei army.

And these 4,000 Wei troops, originally under Guo Huai's back and forth transfer, were already in some scattered formations, and the enemy they faced this time was not a rabble led by Chen Yi, but a serious Yongzhou county soldier. For a while, he really couldn't break through Jiang Wan's interception and strive to break through.

What's even worse is that behind these 4,000 Wei troops, there are still a lot of "rabble".

In the earlier battle, the 4,000 Wei army pressed the 8,000 rabble and beat wildly, and the 8,000 rabble that was fought in just half an hour suffered nearly 1,000 casualties.

But now it's a different story.

The four thousand Wei troops were left on the battlefield by the commander, and their morale plummeted, coupled with Jiang Wan's blockage, blocking their breakthrough direction, and the morale and formation of the entire army were dissipated visibly with the naked eye.

At this time, there is no need for Chen Yi to order a two-sided attack, and this rabble will rush up by itself.

No one is better at this kind of thing than this rabble, seeing that the enemy in front of him is about to collapse, and if he doesn't hurry up to seize the opportunity to take his head to earn military exploits, that is a fool.

In this way, under the attack from both sides, the four thousand Wei troops soon fell into passivity, and the sky had become dark, and in the face of the obstruction of the line of sight, this group of Wei troops soon fell into a separate battle without a formation.

At this point, the defeat of the 4,000 Wei army was decided, but Jiang Wan was angry.

First, because in this situation, Jiang Wan gathered the formation, and wanted to take the opportunity to persuade these Wei troops to surrender, all of them were qualified strong men and county soldiers, and they were not consumables, so it would definitely be good to persuade them to surrender.

But the rabble led by Chen You, the rise of killing at this time, regardless of the situation on the battlefield, in their eyes, the heads of these Wei troops are all their own money and land.

Jiang Wan couldn't stop it.

Second, that rabble, if they just attacked the Wei army, it would be okay, although Jiang Wan was on fire, but at least they were dealing with the enemy. But the rise of these bastards actually rushed towards their own guard line, and they had no intention of closing the momentum.

Why do you even dare to cut your own people?!

Jiang Wan really got angry, and almost directly ordered to release arrows to shoot this group of rabble who were in a mess on the battlefield and didn't listen to the command at all.

Fortunately, on the one hand, Chen Yi finally caught up from behind and ordered the rabble to be stopped in time, on the other hand, Wu Yi and Liu Yin finally gave up the pursuit of Guo Huai and also led the troops over to converge.

In the face of so many regular troops, this rabble can be regarded as somewhat restrained, and they dare not follow their own temperament anymore, and barely calm down the situation, and then Jiang Wan has the opportunity to come forward to absorb and persuade the remaining Wei army to surrender.

But the harvest was not large, and there were probably only more than a thousand Wei troops who surrendered.

It was not that they were killed by the shameless rabble, but mainly because under a chaotic battle, Jiang Wan was powerless to suppress the attack of the rabble, and the final collection of troops, the rabble did not have the concept of collecting prisoners, so that many Wei troops fled in all directions while it was dark.

This made Jiang Wan angry again, that is, after Wu Yi and Liu Yin learned about the situation, they also had a lot of opinions about the rabble led by Chen Yi.

It's really not okay to do anything, and make trouble for the first place!!

But Chen Yi was also wronged. It's just such a bunch of bastards, who of you can bring it?!

You think it's causing you trouble, don't you think it's me?!

Again, if Lao Tzu goes to the battlefield in the future and brings such soldiers, Lao Tzu will directly disarm and return to the field, he really can't afford to worry about this heart, and he can't afford to lose this person!!

If you really want to talk about depression and resentment, Chen You has more than anyone present.

And Chen Yi is not the kind of genuine general who is good at turning waste into treasure, he can fool this group of rabble to the outside of Huaili City, which can be regarded as doing his best.

After learning about Chen You's depression and sadness along the way, even Wu Yi didn't know what to say about this group of things, not to mention that Chen You, a civilian official who had never been on the battlefield, even if he was an experienced martial artist, it was impossible to be much better than Chen You.

This thing. Let's uncover it, there is time for this reckoning, it is better to discuss what to do next.

Guo Huai has already led the troops to retreat, and in this dark environment, it is almost impossible to pursue under the broken rear of the cavalry, that is to say, Guo Huai took at least 6,000 infantry and 3,000 cavalry and withdrew to the east side of Youfufeng.

This force, not too much, but not too little, if you defend the city and continue to stalemate with the Han Dynasty, you will not be able to quickly end the battle of Youfufeng in a short time.

Even if Guo Huai is allowed to withdraw to the right Fufeng fortress group, use the fortress group to defend. Under the condition of sufficient infantry and cavalry, even if Wu Yi's 30,000 elite northern army arrived, it would not be able to shake the defense of the fortress group.

This allowed Cao Wei to occupy a large area in the right Fufeng, and he could use the fortress group as a springboard to invade the right Fufeng at any time.

This is not what Dahan wants to see.

Therefore, Jiang Wan's suggestion was to pursue overnight.

Although it is very difficult to march at night, if you rest in place for a night and then pursue, with Guo Huai's leading ability, you can completely get rid of the tracking of the Han army, and if you want to fight with Guo Huai for speed and time, you will be at a disadvantage.

Moreover, Jiang Wan is also worried about Lantian County.

But he came out with 3,000 county soldiers, and Lantian County was only guarded by the original 500 soldiers, and Jiang Wan, the county commander of Lantian County, didn't believe that this person would choose to defend Lantian County.

Therefore, Jiang Wan hoped that Wu Yi could personally lead the troops in pursuit, at least return to Lantian County first, use Lantian County as the advance base, and force the Cao Wei defenders in the Youfufeng fortress group as soon as possible, and not give Guo Huai a chance to escape back to Wuguan.

Wu Yi still agrees with Jiang Wan's suggestion.

Although the Northern Army experienced a fierce battle, the losses were not small, and the sergeants were also tired. But with the level of training of the Northern Army, it is not difficult to pursue overnight in such a situation.

As an elite, if you don't have this combat ability, then the Northern Army is no different from ordinary county soldiers.

Therefore, Wu Yi ordered Liu Yin to lead his troops to continue to stay in Huaili City, strengthen the city defenses, and repair the city walls just in case. At the same time, take care of the main force of the Northern Army led by Feng Xi and Zhang Nan in the follow-up, inform them of their whereabouts, and let them lead the army to follow as soon as possible and arrive at the Youfufeng Fortress Group.

As for Wu Yi, he and Jiang Wan led a mixed contingent of less than 7,000 northern army and county soldiers, and hurried overnight, at least to rush to the right Fufeng fortress group before Guo Huai, create pressure, and force the Wei army of the fortress group to surrender.

There is nothing wrong with this decision in itself, it is just one point - Chen Yi asked, what should he do with this rabble under him?!

The prime minister has an order, and before the battle of Youfufeng is completely over, this rabble must not withdraw to Chang'an. The number of defenders in Chang'an is too small to afford any variables.

Wu Yi was right to think about it, then let this rabble stay in Huaili City.

Anyway, now that the defense of Huaili City is dilapidated, and the defenders are seriously insufficient, it is good to leave these people to help defend and prevent Guo Huai from killing a horse pistol.

But when he said this, Liu Yin didn't agree.

Just let them into Huaili City, God knows what will happen.

If there is another mutiny. Liu Yin has to think about the people who have always supported him to stick to Huaili, right?!

Luring a wolf into the house, Liu Yin resolutely refused.

This reason. It's especially hard for even Chen Yi to refute.

What are the things under their hands, Chen Yi now knows very well, this kind of lack of morality, they can't do it.

But you can't just leave the army where you are because of this little thing, and let Guo Huai retreat to the fortress group, right?!

In the end, it was Wu Yi who made the decision, coordinated it, and made a decision.

Chen Yi led the rabble to camp outside the city of Huaili, and all the logistics and supplies were provided by Liu Yin, and Liu Yin led the troops back to the city to rest and be ready at any time.

Anyway, it doesn't take too long, wait for a day or two, and when Feng Xi and Zhang Nan lead the northern army to Huaili, they will change guards with Liu Yin, Zhang Nan led 5,000 northern troops to stay in Huaili, and Liu Yin marched east with the army.

There are 5,000 northern troops guarding Huaili, and even if the rabble really mutinies, it can be easily suppressed.

After making these arrangements, everyone had no objections, and Wu Yi immediately began to reorganize the army, marched overnight with torches, and rushed back to Lantian County with Jiang Wan.

After that, take a break to recover your strength and morale, and then head to the right Fufeng fortress group.
