Bang The city gate that was originally open was closed again.
Cao Cao and others, who were five hundred meters away from the city gate, looked at Xia Houyuan and others who were driven out, their faces full of surprise and confusion.
They were originally waiting for good news, but they didn't expect that what they were waiting for was this result.
Cao Cao also had a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Including the soldiers and horses sent in later, there were at least more than 100,000 troops who attacked Fushui Pass, as well as generals such as Xia Houyuan, Cao Ren, Le Jin, Yu Jin, Li Dian, etc., and captured Fushui, which had only 50,000 defenders.
Off, obviously not a problem.
However.
Everyone knows what happened in the city.
Looking at Xia Houyuan and others returning in embarrassment, and the officers and soldiers of the Wei army who escaped, they also looked a little downcast.
Moreover, Yu Jin's left shoulder was also stained red, his face was very pale, and his forehead was sweating.
He was only able to steady himself by relying on Li Dian's support.
"My subordinates have betrayed the great trust of their lord.
They failed to capture Fushui Pass and lost most of their troops.
They are really destined to die."
Xia Houyuan came to Cao Cao, dismounted from his horse, and knelt down and said.
Cao Ren and others also fell one body behind and knelt down.
"Come here, help Wen Ze go down and treat the injury quickly," Cao Cao shouted.
He also saw the wound on Yu Jin's left shoulder, with blood oozing out, and it was obvious that he had lost too much blood.
Hear the words.
Two soldiers also walked out from behind and helped Yu Jin down.
Cao Cao then looked at Xia Houyuan and asked, "Miaocai, what happened in the city and why?"
He had no intention of blaming.
It was obvious that something was happening in the city that he didn't know about.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be what it is today.
Sima Yi and others also looked at Xia Houyuan.
According to what they knew, and being led by Xia Houyuan and others, such a situation would not happen at all, but now, their army was driven out forcefully.
"Back to my lord, our army has already invaded the city and suppressed the Han army.
It is only a matter of time before we capture Fushui Pass."
"You can pursue them into the main street and try to wipe out the remaining Han army."
"Tens of thousands of Han troops appeared in the houses on both sides of the main street.
Without warning, our army suffered heavy losses in the dense rain of arrows.
General Yu was also injured by an arrow, and our army became panicked."
"Two generals appeared in the rear, leading an army, and surrounded our legion.
The subordinates could only lead the soldiers to break out.
They wanted to guard the city gate, but they were killed by the Han army's tactics. , rushed out” "The garrison at Fushui Pass was not just 50,000 soldiers, nor was it only General Zhang Ren, there was also General Wenpin.
Moreover, the tens of thousands of Han troops who appeared in the end were also elites, not new recruits.
The actual defenders of Fushui Pass numbered at least 100,000, but half of the Han army was hidden among them and was not discovered."
Xia Houyuan also told the final situation in the city and brought his own analysis.
As for Meng Da, who was knocked off his horse by one shot, he was not counted among the generals.
Hear the words.
Cao Cao and others also came to their senses.
He also understood the reason why Xia Houyuan and others had invaded Fushui Pass and were finally driven out.
This is not surprising because Xia Houyuan and others did not try their best.
It is not surprising that the soldiers could not resist such an ambush.
"How come there are still 50,000 fighting soldiers in Yizhou?"

Sima Yi asked the doubts in his heart.
As far as he knew, in addition to the troops in Hanzhong and the 20,000 Han troops stationed in Luoxian County, there were only 300,000 new recruits left.
They were scattered everywhere, and there were only 100,000 in Mianzhu.
It’s just that the new recruits can support us.
"What if the King of Han led the departing army and took out 50,000 capable soldiers and replaced them with 50,000 new soldiers?"
Xi Zhicai said.
The words fell.
Sima Yi also flashed a light in his eyes, smiled bitterly, and murmured: "I see."
The rest of the people also understood.
When the army was mobilized, 50,000 soldiers who had experienced many battles were left behind, and then 50,000 new soldiers were added.
Then the 50,000 combat-ready soldiers were dispersed, mixed into Fushui Pass, and hidden secretly. .
In this way, it will not attract any attention and no one will know.
In the eyes of the outside world, there are only 50,000 defenders in Fushui Pass, and there is only one general, Zhang Ren.
After all, Yizhou is Liu Qi's territory.
Even if they have spies hiding in Yizhou, they can't find out everything.
It is normal to make some covert arrangements secretly.
What's more, they didn't use the 300,000 troops and the mighty situation to hide the 10,000 soldiers led by Sima Yi.
In the end, Hanzhong was captured without wasting a single soldier.
He also used this to trick him into opening the city gate of Fushui Pass.
If it weren't for the 50,000 more Han troops who were waiting in full formation, they might have captured Fushui Pass by now.
Looking at the Han soldiers who had started walking on the city wall and making defensive postures.
"It seems that it is not easy to capture Fushui Pass quickly," Cao Cao sighed.
Just one step away from the final step, but nothing changes.
This is also something that cannot be changed.
Xi Zhicai and others also nodded in agreement.
It seemed that Liu Qi also knew that they would take action, and made arrangements when he sent his troops to fight Liu Bei.
Let them not easily capture Fushui Pass.
If Hanzhong is not captured.
When Zhang Wei led his troops and stationed troops in Jiange, even if they wanted to attack Fushui Pass, they would have some scruples.
One gain and one loss, who can explain clearly.
"Everyone, get up, this fault is not your fault," Cao Cao said to Xia Houyuan and others.
Liu Qi had such an arrangement, and he would not blame Xia Houyuan and others for not trying their best.
"Thank you, Lord" Xia Houyuan and others also bowed before standing up from the ground.
"Lord, what should we do next?"
Xi Zhicai asked.
Cao Cao glanced at the prepared city wall, then looked up at the sky, and said: "Since the Han army has been prepared, we will withdraw from Sanli and set up camp, rest for a while, and wait until the next day to attack the city."
Now that the battle has been lost, it is not suitable to continue attacking Fushui Pass.
It is most correct to take a rest.
"promise" Xi Zhicai and others did not have any objections. immediately.
The Wei army gathered outside Fushui Pass slowly retreated and no longer prepared to attack the city.
Han soldiers on the city wall.
Seeing the Wei army retreating, they were relieved and had a chance to breathe, but they all understood that the Wei army was only retreating temporarily and would come back again.
That's when victory or defeat is decided
