"Hurry, inform Deng Ai immediately to help, everyone else, save people!" Wei Yan's roar echoed in the wilderness.

It was just like the time when the Yellow River broke the dam, although it was not like the time when it was like the Yellow River broke the dam, most people were soaked in the current situation!

In such weather, most of the powerful soldiers were shivering in a group and trembling. The loss of people was not much, but most of them lost their combat effectiveness.

The Neihuang city gate had been opened, and a large number of Wei soldiers rushed out. Wei Yan gritted his teeth and didn't care about too much. He immediately called the order and could keep up with him.

The Wei army did not pursue, but began to plunder the Han army's equipment on the battlefield.

Li Yan was lucky. He rode a horse. Although he was knocked down by the water, his personal guards were afraid of death. In the end, he escaped before the Wei army came and ran with Wei Yan.

At this time, Wei Yan had no time to pay attention to him. Seeing that the Wei army did not pursue him, he did not dare to stay. He led the remaining troops all the way to Nandun, preparing to go to Liyang to make plans.

As for those supplies, I can't care about them at this moment.

"General Wei, the bandit army has not chased after him, so let's take a break!" Li Yan had already taken off his armor and his clothes. Although it would be very cold, it would be even colder if he was wearing it.

"Oh~" Wei Yan saw that the sun had set in the west, so it was not appropriate to continue rushing. He turned over and dismounted and handed his cloak to Li Yan and said, "The soldiers and horses of Shizai should arrive soon, so the general should be patient for a while."

Li Yan was not polite, and took Wei Yan's cloak and wrapped himself in it. He shivered and looked around. Most of the soldiers took off their armor like him, and some even threw away their weapons. However, his face said with a tragic look: "After this defeat, how can you see Your Majesty!"

Wei Yan glanced at him and ignored him.

This is obviously because we hope that Wei Yan can plead for him, but this matter depends on how Liu Yi dealt with. Li Yan secretly stumbling to Liu Yi since the Battle of Hanzhong. Over the years, Wei Yan knew very well that Liu Yi called Li Yan this time, and he wanted to cheat him.

However, this pit has nothing to do with Liu Yi. Liu Yi made it clear at the beginning that if Li Yan could really defeat Sima Yi, then the contribution of destroying Wei would be Li Yan's first contribution, but if he lost to Sima Yi, it would be the new and old accounts to be settled together.

Wei Yan never thought of helping Li Yan take responsibility, he himself was responsible.

"This battle..." Wei Yan looked at Li Yan and sighed, "The fight was too urgent. The governor was right. Sima Yi is not comparable to an ordinary person. General, so let's think about how to plead with the governor."

Wei Yan knew very well what Liu Yi was going to do. According to the original plan, Liu Yi sneaked into Yecheng. It would be best if Li Yan could defeat Sima Yi. Even if he lost to Sima Yi, it would not be surprising. However, Liu Yi left a way out. As long as he was not defeated too badly, the stone formation in Hanoi was enough to preserve his vitality. At that time, no matter whether Liu Yi's plan to attack Yecheng would be successful, he would be qualified to make a comeback.

But now...

Looking at the shirtless crowds around him, Wei Yan felt heavy. Even if Liu Yi successfully attacked Yecheng this time, there were not enough troops to annex the entire Jizhou.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Wei Yan was about to let someone cut down the woods and build a camp, but before he could do it, he heard a shout of killing sound, and a group of people came to attack here. Judging from the flag, it was clearly the Wei army.

"So fast!" Wei Yan was shocked to see it, and he didn't care about building a camp, so he hurriedly continued to escape with his men.

Along the way, countless prisoners were caught by the enemy or killed. Wei Yan heard the screams behind him, his heart was bleeding, but he did not dare to turn around, and he ran towards Li Yang with his men overnight.

However, this Wei army was not in a hurry to chase and killed it, but just hung all the way behind and kept picking up equipment.

At dawn, Deng Ai brought two thousand people to the reception, shooting his archery with his bow and arrow, and ordered the Wei army to retreat temporarily.

"This is..." Deng Ai looked at the tragic situation in front of him and looked at Wei Yan in surprise.

"It's a long story, let's find some clothes for the soldiers first." Wei Yan sighed and said to Deng Ai: "In addition, generals and military doctors are recruited, and many soldiers in the army have suffered from cold!"

"Here!" Deng Ai nodded, agreed, and personally led his army to cut off the rear for the defeated army and escorted the remaining troops to retreat into Liyang.

Guo Huai led his troops to patrol the side, not attacking the city, but did not leave, and directly stationed troops outside Liyang City.

The next morning, after a night of rest, Li Yan recovered a little of his energy. Although he was also hit by a cold, it was not too serious. He spoke with a strong nasal sound.

"How many soldiers are there in the army?" Li Yan looked at Deng Ai and said in a stern voice.

"There were only more than 20,000 people who retreated from the front line yesterday, but most of them were infected with cold weather. There was insufficient medicine in the city. According to the military doctor, half of them could survive it, it would be good." Deng Ai sighed.

"Ten thousand!" Li Yan's body trembled, and his expression became even more bitter.

"Yeah." Wei Yan nodded: "In addition, the soldiers who were not watered by the river were less than 15,000. In addition, the defenders in Liyang, Baima, Yanjin, Yanxian and other places could have about 20,000 troops."

There were 60,000 troops, but in the end there were only 20,000 left!

In fact, not many of these people who were damaged were washed away by water. Most of them were frozen to death or killed by the Wei army's pursuers on their way to escape yesterday.

Li Yan felt that his mouth was full of bitterness. His previous ambitions had long been gone. He knew that even if Liu Yi did not make things difficult for him, the court would probably punish him severely.

Besides, Liu Yi doesn’t let him go...is it possible?

"What's worse is that I sent a scout to investigate. The Wei army seized a large number of our army's weapons and armor!" Deng Ai sat opposite Wei Yan, rubbed his eyebrows and said, "With these weapons and armor, the Wei army can organize an elite force that is not inferior to our army! In this battle, it is probably impossible to suppress the Wei army as before!"

Li Yan and Wei Yan couldn't help but fall silent when they heard this.

Before, the Han army was able to suppress the Wei army because of its advantages in weapons. Its strong armor and range were far beyond ordinary bows and arrows, which was almost equivalent to a dimensional reduction attack, so that it could only suppress Sima Yi's army of more than 100,000.

But now, with the same equipment on both sides, even if the Han army is well-trained, it is absolutely impossible to attack the crowd if it really fights.

This defeat lost their biggest advantage.

"Report~" Just as the three of them were silent and silent, a small school rushed to the door and shouted: "Generals, we will report to the Ma Ma. Sima Yi personally led the army to Li Yang."

Upon hearing this, the three of them stood up suddenly. Wei Yan gritted his teeth and said, "It's really fast."

Li Yan sighed and said, "Our army is afraid it will be difficult for us to fight against the Wei army now!"

Without the advantage of equipment, the number of people is at an absolute disadvantage. Even if the city wall of Liyang is solid, it will not last long. The most important thing is that it is meaningless. From the rear to Hanoi, it is almost extinct. It is meaningless to defend Liyang at all.

Even Li Yan was worried that he could not even defend Hanoi.

"The governor has set up several stone formations in Jixian to Wude area. We retreat there, and there are tens of thousands of people available in Hanoi. Although we cannot defeat Sima Yi, it is enough to save Hanoi." Wei Yan nodded. His morale is low now, and with the huge difference in number, he does not have the strength to resist Sima Yi.

"General Wei." Li Yan hesitated for a moment, clasped his fists at Wei Yan and said, "I am now weak and dizzy. I am afraid I can't lead the army. Next, I will leave it to General Wei."

Wei Yan didn't politely with him. At this time, even if Li Yan wanted to lead the troops, Wei Yan would not agree. He immediately took Deng Ai and began to arrange a retreat besides the door.

Although it is a bit unkind, it is obviously impossible to bring all the wounded people with the cold under the pursuit of the Wei army. Therefore, Wei Yan's first order was to order the soldiers of the three armies to follow the troops and walk together, and those who cannot walk, stay to defend the city.

Although Deng Ai couldn't bear it, it was undoubtedly the best solution now.

...

"Father, what is this?" Sima Shi sat on the horse's back, looking at Sima Yi playing with the bamboo tube he picked up from the battlefield yesterday with a novel look on his face, and said curiously.

"Divine object!" Sima Yi took the telescope and looked into the distance, and said in a marvelous manner: "No wonder the Han army is rarely buried. There is this object, and the scene thousands of steps away is like in front of you! Look."

When Sima Shi heard this, he took the bamboo tube handed over by Sima Yi, followed Sima Yi's appearance and looked away, frowned and said, "Why does it seem to be a little further?"

"You're taking it back!" Sima Yi said with a smile.

"Oh!" Sima Shi turned the bamboo tube upside down and looked into the distance, he immediately looked at Sima Yi with surprise: "Father, this... is Liu Yi really helping him?"

The earliest rumor about Liu Yi's deeds was a descendant of the Mo family, and he was a person who had never met for a thousand years. He had an unpredictable opportunity. However, most people have always sneered at it. But now, looking at the bamboo telescope in his hand, Sima Shi suddenly felt a little convinced.

"I don't know if there are ghosts and gods who help me, but this person is indeed a strange person!" Sima Yi shook his head. The sayings of ghosts and gods have existed since ancient times, but for people like him, he believes more that he knows what he knows. As for ghosts and gods, he has never seen them, does not object, but he will not believe them.

"If we can capture Liu Yi alive, perhaps, our Great Wei may not be able to defeat the fake Han in another ten years!" Sima Shi played with him for a long time before returning the bamboo telescope to Sima Yi, shook his head and sighed.

"Capture him alive?" Sima Yi's lips twitched twice when he heard this, and looked at his son and said, "I believe that as a father, even if you can break through Chang'an, you don't want to capture this person alive!"

Strictly speaking, Sima Yi and Liu Yi have never even met each other, and they only fought twice. However, Sima Yi believes that he knows Liu Yi's character better than most people in this world. Before he can win, he will lose first!
