Chapter 422

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun took people back to the city overnight.

Back in the city, the soldiers were exhausted.

After checking, Zhang Liao and Gao Shun's faces were very bad.

"I've lost more than 50000 troops. I'm ashamed of my Lord." Zhang Liao said sadly.

Gao Shun looks black. There are only a few hundred soldiers left in his 20000 headquarters. It can be said that the whole army was almost destroyed.

In this battle, 40000 infantry were killed, and more than half of Zhang Liao's 20000 cavalry were lost.

At the end of the first World War, Liaodong's soldiers and horses were too weak to fight any more.

Of course, Wuhuan's troops were not much better. 50000 troops rushed to Liaodong. After the first battle, only 12000 people were left. Their morale was low and they were also unable to fight any more.

Wu Dun tied up the wound of his left arm and said angrily: "these despicable Han people, if I catch them, I will cut off their heads."

He didn't expect to suffer such a big loss. Fifty thousand cavalry, after a battle, left more than 12000 people.

Although Liaodong lost more than them, they didn't think much about it. They thought ten Han people couldn't match them.

Wu Dun went back to lick the wound, temporarily unable to attack, can only pull down the face to go back for help.

Zhang Liao and Gao Shun returned directly to Xiangping city and began to strengthen the city defense, ready to defend.

They have tens of thousands of soldiers and hundreds of thousands of people in the city. If necessary, they can defend the city together.

It was not long before the war shook Wuhuan up and down.

Fifty thousand Wuhuan troops fought with ninety thousand Han troops, and the losses were so great.

If calculated, the loss of Wuhuan is greater than that of Liaodong.

Liaodong lost more than 40000 infantry and more than 10000 cavalry, while Wuhuan lost all cavalry.

The great loss was the second, which gave the Wuhuan people the illusion.

"Can't the Wuhuan army sweep the world of the Han people easily?"

"Did the Wuhuan people get weaker, or did the Han people get stronger?"

With such a great loss, the people of Wuhuan naturally felt suspicious.

This is terrible. In their opinion, 50000 troops can sweep the whole Youzhou, 200000 troops can sweep the whole Han.

But now, 50000 troops not only failed to conquer Liaodong, but also suffered heavy losses.

When Qiu Liju received the news, his face was black and frightening.

He did not expect that Liaodong was so difficult to deal with.

This is true in Shenyang, and it is true in Liaodong today.

And the news came back that the city of Xiangping in Liaodong is also a big city with strong defense.

Xiangping city is the first city built by Zhangyu, which can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people,

Qiu Liju was very difficult, but he could not retreat like this.

When he retreats, his prestige will be greatly damaged and his position will be unstable.

When Zhang Yu received the news, he was also very angry.

"Lord, Wenyuan, they're playing pretty well." Dian Wei saw that Zhang Yu's face was very bad and muttered in a low voice.

Zhang Yu sighed and said: "Wen Yuan and Gao Shun are very good at fighting, and what they do is also very correct. The soldiers want to spare their lives to protect the people and their homes, but the first World War has cost us more than 50000 good men. This revenge must be avenged."

Huang Zhong, Zhao Yun and Tai Shici are also relieved when they hear Zhang Yu's words. Zhang Yu does not want to pursue any responsibility, but can't swallow it.

With more than 50000 troops, Zhang Yu's heart was dripping with blood.

I don't know how much effort it will take to form an army.

The generals are also full of hatred. They have long been in charge of Zhang Yu's territory.

After the war, the two sides began to confront each other. Qiu Liju did not dare to launch a war easily.

Because he found that Liaodong's army is not so weak, and it's really hard to fight, with heavy casualties.

"Go and catch the people in Liaodong for me. Catch as many as you can. If they don't come out, I'll cut them down one by one in front of them." Finally, Qiu Liju hysterical, come up with such an idea.

Liaodong has Zhang Liao's defense. It's not so easy to break through in a short time.

However, there are always some villages and towns where all the people have not evacuated, and some people have been caught on the road.

In a few days, they arrested hundreds of people.

Qiu Liju was furious.

"A group of waste. If tens of thousands of people go out, I will catch hundreds of people back. Waste. "

"King, the people of Liaodong are hiding. Why don't we go to other places to catch them? Anyway, the Han people are all the same." A subordinate general said.

When Qiu Liju heard this, he thought it was reasonable and sent someone immediately.

In this way, the people of western Liaoning suffered. They went to the nearest County of western Liaoning to arrest people.

In a few days, although they consumed a lot of food, Qiu Liju sent a batch of food. At the same time, the troops who went out to plunder also plundered a lot of food, which was enough for him to support.

Qiu Liju wanted to conquer Shenyang City not only because he wanted to maintain his prestige, but also because he was afraid that Liaodong would threaten him when it became powerful.

Among other things, when Liaodong became powerful, they would have a huge obstacle to plunder southward.

So Qiu Liju came up with such a crazy plan to slaughter people outside the city and force Zhang Yu to fight with them.

Zhang Yu doesn't know their plan yet. At this time, he is holding his breath and planning to go out of the city to fight with them and destroy their prestige.

"Lord, although the enemy is strong, we are not weak. If we fight outside the city, we will not lose much." Huang Zhong said.

Zhang Yu calculated his forces. When he went out to fight, he could send out 60000 troops and the rest of his troops to guard the city.

After the first World War, we will certainly suffer heavy losses and may lose our ability to fight outside the city.

But Zhang Yu thinks we can have a try.

Because Zhang Yu also saw the internal discord of Wuhuan, if they could fight a war and make them lose a lot, Qiu Liju would be in a difficult situation at that time.

The people of Wuhuan came to plunder, to get rich, not to die.

As long as the loss is too great, some tribal leaders will naturally waver.

In the next few days, Zhang Yu made active preparations.

Let the soldiers have a good rest first, and prepare to equip them with some high-quality weapons and armor.

Zhang Yu exchanged a batch of high-grade goods from the system.

In particular, Zhang Yu selected 10000 cavalry from the army to form the heavy cavalry, led by Huang Zhong.

These heavy cavalry are heavily armored from man to horse.

Heavy cavalry is undoubtedly one of the most powerful arms at present.

Zhang Yu had planned to set up heavy cavalry for a long time, but there were too many things. One war after another, he didn't have time to breathe.

Now, the war is coming, Zhang Yu can only be formed in a hurry. Although he has not received much training, he is all carefully selected soldiers and can adapt quickly.

Heavy cavalry, with heavy armour weighing dozens of Jin, needs soldiers of good quality. Fortunately, Zhang Yu's army has strict training, good treatment and good nutrition. Ten thousand soldiers can be found in the whole army to form heavy cavalry.

Heavy cavalry, is Zhang Yu dare to go out of the city to fight with them.
