After Xing Daorong was seriously injured and unconscious, he was trampled to death in the chaos. Of course, this bad news could not spread immediately. Moreover, the war became such a big melee, and the attacking side did not have the heart to care about the life or death of a general who rushed forward.

Therefore, about a quarter of an hour after Xing Daorong's death, the Jingnan Alliance was still attacking with all his strength with this breath, relying on the psychological advantages of the large number of people on his side, and for a moment he was brainless and reckless.

In the front of the camp, the slope that Guan Yu deliberately left was a hundred steps wide, and soon the corpses piled up like mountains. The two armies had at least more than a thousand bodies piled there, and there were more broken limbs and broken arms and wailing wounded.

However, if someone can calmly analyze it from the perspective of God, he will find that the exchange ratio is terrible, and Zhang Xianjun's casualties are more than seven or eight times higher than that of the Han army!

In the initial stage of the battle just now, Zhang Xian was designed to squeeze on a narrow front because he wanted to attack, and welcomed the shooting of thousands of powerful crossbows. The low and flat trajectory did not need to be aimed at at all. As long as the enemy was dense enough, the target that was not shot in the front row could also hit the enemy in the gap behind. At least hundreds of lives could be taken away in each round.

So on the way up, the Jingnan Alliance paid an additional one or two thousand casualties.

Subsequently, the elite soldiers who were covered by sword and shield and gun were stabbed at each other, and the battle form was in which three or four times the manpower could not even get close to each other.

Until a quarter of an hour after the hand-to-hand combat began, the front row of the Jingnan Alliance's sword and shield light infantry died almost, and the Jingnan spearmen in the back row also began to enter the front line, and the exchange ratio was slightly better. However, the battlefield terrain was still unfavorable to the attacking party-

Guan Yu's crossbowmen could not shoot in front, for fear of accidentally hurting friendly troops, but they could still retreat to the wings of the village wall, cross the shooting, and specialize in attacking the back row. Although at this stage, the Jingnan Army could also use bows and arrows to shoot against the village wall, but the Han army had bunkers, and its advantage was not ordinary.

If you block the minced meat on the narrow mouth, the low-quality and large-capacity side will not be able to perform at all.

Finally, the news of Xing Daorong's death spread to various front lines of the Jingnan Alliance Army. Even Zhang Xian and Jin Xuan, who were supervising the battle and conquering the formation behind, also learned about the bad news.

Although Jin Xuan did not know the soldiers, he felt that this battle could not be fought like this: "Zhang Fujun! Our Wuling soldiers' sword and shield soldiers were almost killed or injured! We can't continue to fight like this. This terrain is too unfavorable to us, and even if we have four or five times the strength, we can't exert it!

Moreover, before the war, Guan Yu moved out of Yiji and surrendered under the name of Liu Biao, and our army's morale was already depressed. Now Xing Daorong died in the chaos. I am afraid that there will be another trace of unfavorable changes to our army, and the morale of the army will completely collapse! It is better to retreat early!"

Zhang Xian's face was covered in cold sweat, knowing that he had reached the critical moment of losing two or three. If Guan Yu showed stronger tenacity and even used a strategic reserve team to reverse the recommendation, he might collapse at any time.

But Zhang Xian also knew that he could not withdraw his troops directly, as that would only lead to greater chaos.

After all, he grew up by taking advantage of Sun Jianping's Star Battle in the District. He started fighting in the five years of Zhongping, and his basic operation experience is quite rich.

Otherwise, in history, Zhang Xian would not have fought with Liu Biaoxu for so many years before he was finally settled by Liu Biao. You must know that the decisive battle between Liu Biao and Zhang Xian happened to happen during the Battle of Guandu. Liu Bei vigorously advised Liu Biao to lead the main force to stab Cao Cao, but Liu Biao used the main force to deal with Zhang Xian, and finally calmed down Zhang Xian in one go.

It can be seen that Zhang Xian is also a hero who can "resist Liu Biao to intervene in the Battle of Guandu."

He quickly observed the situation of the battle and gritted his teeth and ordered: "I ordered the rear army to change its formation, raise the banner, and send the messenger to let the follow-up gun and shield soldiers who were originally planned to be put into operation first to protect our archers, and move Su Dai's sword and shield soldiers to the central army as a follow-up reserve team!"

Jin Xuan was confused by the side and persuaded the group to join in a row: "Zhang Fujun, how can you attack again in such a situation? You asked the direct gun and shield soldiers to retreat, but let Su Fujun's sword and shield soldiers come forward. Could it be that they want to consume us and preserve your own strength!"

"Shut up! Ignorance man! I would be great if Guan Yu could think like you!" Zhang Xian didn't have to save face for Jin Xuan. After all, he was the absolute main force in this battle today, and Jin Xuan's men and horses had already suffered a lot, so the comparison between the two sides was even more disparate.

Su Dai and Jin Xuan dared not speak out, but they had to accept Zhang Xian's dispatch. But unexpectedly, Zhang Xian really had two tricks. After he moved the gun and shield soldiers from the second and third formations of his own, he suddenly issued a new order before Su Dai's sword and shield soldiers stepped forward, so that Su Dai's sword and shield soldiers would not have to go any further.

This is like when you go to a restaurant for dinner in later generations, there is still a dish of fish-flavored shredded pork left and you want to return the dishes, but if you ask the waiter directly, "Have the fish-flavored shredded pork been cooked?", the waiter will definitely say that it is already cooking and cannot be returned.

At this time, you have to ask, "If the fish-flavored shredded pork has not been roasted, can you change it to Longjing shrimp?" At this time, the waiter will answer, "It's really not roasted, you can change it" because Longjing shrimp is more expensive.

Then, you can immediately take advantage of this time and say, "The Longjing shrimps are not cooked yet, right? I don't want them anymore", and then you will successfully return the dish.

If Zhang Xian directly let the entire army retreat, then the troops rushing to the front immediately would immediately turn into the rear, which would definitely lead to panic and morale collapse. Once he fell into chaos and trampled on him, he would not know how high the losses would be.

But he acted as "I still want to continue attacking", and the military music was always beating drums to cheer rather than making gold, so that the soldiers who were standing in the first formation did not worry about the subsequent reinforcements not coming up, making them think that "the rear army is just a tactical adjustment to change positions and orders", so that the front army can hold on until the last moment.

When the last dish of "Dongpo pork" on the table was about to be eaten, they heard that "the fish-flavored shredded pork that was pressed down will not come, and the Longjing shrimp that changed to the fish-flavored shredded pork will not come." At this time, the fish-flavored shredded pork and the Longjing shrimp have retreated far away, and they can definitely leave contact to prevent diners from chasing.

As for the remaining pieces of Dongpo pork, just treat it as a gift for Guan Yu. If the army wants to retreat and leave contact, they always have to sell a few teammates who have left behind.

"We were betrayed by Zhang Xian!" One or two thousand Jingnan General soldiers blocking the gate of the camp heard the sound of gold behind them and found that all the friendly troops were retreating wildly, and then they woke up as if they were dreaming.

But they were also very straightforward. Since they knew that they had played the role of Dongpo Pork being sold, they surrendered decisively.

"Don't kill us, we surrender!" One or two thousand people threw down their weapons in a few minutes, either fled back and forth, or knelt on the ground and waited for the prisoners.

Guan Yu's army was leisurely accepting the prisoners, but they also lost the opportunity to continue chasing Zhang Xian.
