Chapter 435: The Battle of Jizhou (4)


after making up one's mind Yan Liang also took advantage of the fact that not many Han troops had climbed onto the city wall and were not entangled, so he ordered a retreat.

Shen Pei led the army to evacuate the city wall first.

He personally led more than a hundred personal guards, and two thousand soldiers remained as a backstop.

Because the officers and soldiers of the Yuan Army had long lost the intention to resist, now that the order to retreat was issued, the officers and soldiers of the Yuan Army quickly left the city wall and did not stop the Han army from climbing the ladders and climbing up the city wall.

With Yan Liang leading his army to stop the small number of Han troops who climbed onto the city wall, the retreat was also very smooth.

Although there are obstacles, it cannot delay the retreat.

Leave the city walls.

Shen Pei then led the soldiers of Yuan's army who had withdrawn first and headed straight for the other North City Gate.

After all, by leaving the North City Gate, they could meet up with Yuan Shao who had returned from Youzhou with his troops.

Moreover, the judge also knew that Yan Liang personally broke up the marriage to delay time.

He didn't dare to waste any time before he got off the city wall and went straight to the north gate without any hesitation or pause.

On top of the city wall.

The Han soldiers who had just climbed onto the city wall were also stopped by Yan Liang and his army.

After all, Yan Liang led his army to stop at the entrance of the stairs.

If the Han soldiers wanted to pursue them, they had to break through this line of defense first, but how could they break through so easily.

Yan Liang led the few remaining soldiers of Yuan's army.

Seeing more and more Han soldiers ascending the city wall, they also estimated the time and began to fight on the side while retreating up the stairs to the city.

There are only so many stairs leading from the city wall into the city.

Yan Liang stayed at the end alone, as if he was guarding the gate alone, and was invincible.

Without the general, the Han soldiers were no match for him.

As soon as I stepped into the streets of the city.

Yan Liang led everyone and flew away, no longer entangled with the Han soldiers.

The Han soldiers who came down first wanted to pursue, but they also knew that opening the city gate first was the most correct choice, and Yan Liang wanted to escape unless they could surround them with numbers.

Otherwise, Yan Liang cannot be kept. so.

The Han soldiers walked down from the city wall, some of them continued to pursue them, and some of them walked towards the city gate passage.

The two armies also changed into a chasing battle in the city.

One side is running away, the other side is chasing.

Fortunately, the people in the city knew about the war early in the morning and did not leave their homes. but.

Even so, the shouts of killing rang out in the streets, which also made the people in the city feel scared, fearing that they would be affected.

Yan Liang led the broken troops and horses, ignoring the pursuers behind him, and ran all the way.

Moreover, Yan Liang did not dare to look back.

If he was entangled, it would be difficult for him to leave even if he wanted to leave when Liu Qi led the army into the city.

All the way.

It was like a chicken flying around and it looked very chaotic. final.

Yan Liang still led most of Yuan's soldiers who had been cut off from the rear, and then withdrew from the north gate and left the city.

However, whether it was Liu Qi's order or something else, the pursuing Han soldiers did not continue the pursuit after they escaped from the North City Gate.

Instead, he closed the north city gate and retreated into the city.

It was obvious that they no longer planned to pursue them and let them escape.

See this.

The officers and soldiers of Yuan's army who were behind them also breathed a sigh of relief.

After all, they had been pursuing them, and there might not be so many of them who could escape.

Yan Liang led the remaining soldiers.

After leaving the city for a mile, they stopped when they saw that there were no pursuers behind them.

Looking at the city in the distance.

Yan Liang's eyes also flashed with complicated emotions.

I saw.

On the city wall in the distance, which was already empty, there were also figures flickering, and the flag belonging to Yuan Jun that was originally flying on the city wall was pulled out and thrown from the city wall by the movement of those figures.

Down.

Side after side, they were all uprooted.

Immediately, black flags representing Han Wang Liu Qi were replaced and fluttered on the city wall.

Although Yan Liang didn't make any movement, he held it tightly in his hands, with veins exposed, and bit his lip tightly, not even feeling that his lip was broken, and his body was trembling slightly.

Obviously, the heart is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

He also knew very well that the Han army occupied the city, and this situation was normal.

But he was not willing to accept it.

If it hadn't been for the fire, the current situation might be different, but things had already happened, and even for him, regret would have no effect.

"Let's go" Yan Liang said solemnly.

Now that the situation is over, there is no use in staying.

Even if they join up with the retreating army led by Shen Pei, they will not be able to recapture the city.

The only way out is to join up with Yuan Shao.

He took a deep look at the city.

Then he turned around and left.

The officers and soldiers of Yuan's army who were behind did not hesitate and left behind Yan Liang.

The soldiers of the Yuan Army did not think too much.

They were all grateful to be able to save their lives.

After all, in this battle, a fire burned 30,000 soldiers of the Yuan Army.

Such a scene also left a big shadow on them.

The group of people walked slowly away from the city on the muddy road in the rain.

Slowly disappearing in the rain.

Yan Liang also led the soldiers of the Yuan Army who had broken off to catch up with the soldiers of the Yuan Army who had withdrawn earlier led by Shen Pei.

They gathered together and headed towards Guangping in silence.

This battle.

They were defeated, but they were completely defeated, with no room for resistance.

And in the city.

Liu Qi also led an army into the city and completely took over the city.

It can be said that he suffered the least losses.

Yuan Jun retreated early.

Although Yan Liang and Shen Pei were not left behind, taking the city could be regarded as completing the plan, so they could continue to march towards Guangping and start a head-on battle with Yuan Shao.

They settled down in the city and did not continue to march.

Today's heavy rain is still falling, not only affecting the speed of the march, but also marching in the rain can easily make the army sick on a large scale.

It's okay for a while, but eventually there will be problems.

If that happens, let alone starting a war with Yuan Shao, whether they can hold on will be a problem.

What's more, they captured Wei County.

It is also possible to march to Guangping at any time, and it will not be less than this time and a half.

Otherwise, the Han soldiers who were chasing Yan Liang would not have stopped when they reached the North City Gate and returned to the city, but would have continued to pursue him.

If a few more generals are sent to catch up, maybe even Yan Liang can stay.

In the city.

Now he has regained his composure and is not harassing the people in the city.

Except for the patrolling soldiers, the rest also set up camps in various places to avoid the heavy rain.

Looking at the clouds in the sky.

This rain will not stop soon, but will continue for a while
