The coalition forces retreated and stopped attacking.
The Western Region Mansion was also saved and was not taken away by the coalition forces.
The city wall was also in a state of depression.
After the battle, the tense Wei army officers also relaxed, and one after another, they lay down in the passage of the city wall.
Regardless of the piles of corpses and blood stains in the city wall passage.
From the beginning of the war to now.
They all felt that after a century, if it were not supported by a belief in their hearts, they might have fallen long ago.
However, the situation today is not much better.
Among the soldiers lying down, there were some who fell asleep and did not die in battle, but died of exhaustion.
And Cao Cao was sitting on the steps in front of the city gate tower, with blood still on his left arm.
Xi Zhicai on the side was helping Cao Cao bandage his wounds.
It was obvious that the injuries suffered during the final counterattack were not serious, and were considered minor injuries in comparison. at this time.
Xun Yu also walked from the city to the city wall and came to Cao Cao.
Now that the coalition forces have retreated and their crisis has been temporarily resolved, there is no need to continue executing the last step.
The coalition forces did not break the city.
They were still alive and could not burn down the Western Region Mansion.
"Your Majesty," Xun Yu said with cupped hands.
Walking up the city wall and seeing the tragic situation here, a look of sadness flashed in his eyes.
Although he knew that the battle would be very tragic and had made final plans, when he saw it, he still couldn't help but feel sad in his heart. mood.
Cao Cao also had a sad look on his face.
Although they were able to survive in the end because Lu Bu led his army, facing such a scene, it was difficult to be happy even if they achieved a temporary victory.
"Gather hundreds of soldiers in the city, leave a hundred to cook, and the rest take medicine, go to the city wall, and treat the injured soldiers," Cao Cao ordered to Xun Yu.
He also did not expect that the hundreds of soldiers who were originally assigned to the city to implement the last plan did not play their original role, but were used in this place.
"promise" Xun Yu handed over his hand, turned around and left, ready to make arrangements.
The current situation on the city wall.
He knew very well that the hundreds of soldiers who stayed in the city still had enough physical strength that could be used in this place.
Wait for Xun Yu to leave. , Xia Houyuan and other generals also came to Cao Cao from various places on the city wall and reported the losses.
The war is over for now.
They still need to count the number of troops that can continue to fight, as well as various supplies.
You must know that the coalition forces are only retreating temporarily, not permanently.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will continue to attack early tomorrow morning.
And they also saw that Lu Bu, who came to support outside the city, did not lead many troops.
Although the coalition forces were held back today, by tomorrow, the coalition forces would definitely send a troop of troops to be wary of Lu Jun, and then continue to attack the Western Region Mansion.
It can be said that their lives are only temporarily saved.
Hear the report from Xia Houyuan and others.
Cao Cao also frowned.
Seeing the condition of the city wall, he had speculations in his mind, but he did not expect it to be so tragic.
Of the more than 100,000 soldiers who stayed in the city, less than 20,000 were left, and the rest were all killed in the battle.
After the war, more than a thousand soldiers lay down to rest and fell asleep forever.
There were also some generals and counselors who died in the battle.
Such as Li Dian, Yu Jin, Cheng Yu and others.
It can be said that there were heavy casualties.
The only thing worth celebrating may be that I persisted for so long and finally persisted, even if it was only temporary.
"Let the soldiers have a rest first.
The hundreds of soldiers who stayed in the city will do the rest first.

After they have rested, they will move the corpses of the people who died in the battle back to the city.
As for the corpses of the enemy soldiers, they will throw them away.
Get off the city wall," Cao Cao ordered.
"promise" Xia Houyuan and others did not have any opinions on this.
Cao Cao thought for a while and said: "Although the enemy troops may not come to attack the city tonight, they must be on guard.
We still need to have the necessary precautions.
Even if we are exhausted now, if we can delay it for a little longer, then Just a little more” Although the purpose of delaying time has been achieved, he is still unwilling to withdraw.
After all, I stayed here just to give the people in the Western Regions time to evacuate and to inform the Central Plains.
However, even if it is a withdrawal.
How far can these defeated generals like them escape?
It is better to stay in the city, that way you can hold on longer.
"promise" Xia Houyuan and others also agreed.
"Your Majesty, Marquis Wen and others are here.
Maybe the Han army is coming soon," Xi Zhicai suddenly said.
Hear the words.
Xia Houyuan and others also looked at Cao Cao with a flash of light in their eyes.
This was very good news for them.
Although they didn't know why Lu Bu appeared here, they all knew that Lu Bu had a close relationship with Liu Qi.
They didn't see that Liu Qi's brother Liu Cong was in Lu Bu's army.
Even though Lu Bu's troops and horses were not flying the banner of Han.
But everyone knows that when he was in the Central Plains, Lu Bu did not join the struggle for hegemony.
It had a lot to do with Liu Qi.
In the end, he went to the southern barbarian land occupied by Liu Qi and gave up Runan.
Even if it is not obvious that he has surrendered to Liu Qi.
In their view, it doesn't matter whether it's done openly or not.
"It's hard to say."
Cao Cao shook his head and said, "Don't forget, Marquis Wen disappeared many years ago.
No one except the Emperor of Han knew where he went.
And don't you think that when Marquis Wen appeared, there was no one in the city?"
Are there any similarities to the enemy troops outside?"
"Although I also want to know the reason, but maybe I won't have the chance to know."
Finished.
Cao Cao's eyes also flashed with a glimmer of light. , As for the appearance of Lu Bu and the Western coalition forces outside the city, there is no relationship between the two parties.
Even if they were to kill him, they would not believe it.
So, it can be seen from here that Liu Qi had made arrangements long ago.
His eyes are not only on the Central Plains, but also on places outside the Central Plains.
He didn't believe that Lu Bu had been away for many years, just for fun, so why did he bring so many soldiers and horses with him.
And from previous battles.
He could still see the combat power displayed by the soldiers and horses led by Lu Bu.
Their soldiers and horses were completely incomparable.
Think of this.
He also smiled bitterly.
Hear Cao Cao's words.
Xia Houyuan and others also fell silent.
"Okay, let's all take a rest.

Next, there is still a big battle waiting for me," Cao Cao said.
"promise" Xia Houyuan and others also dispersed the bad thoughts in their minds.
Now is not the time to be decadent.
With the current troops and horses, it will be even more difficult in the future.
As for death, they are not afraid
