As soon as Wang Qi died, the entire battle came to an abrupt end. The remaining Youzhou soldiers who had not yet surrendered and tried to break through finally gave up. Even Wang Qi and Wei Guan could not break through, and the others had no thoughts.

So the Youzhou army surrendered from one or two to the entire team of people surrendering, and in the end, all of them threw away their weapons, and no one dared to resist anymore, and the entire battle ended soon.

Wen Qin ordered Wang Qi's body to be collected and the battlefield was cleaned up. However, with so many surrendered soldiers, they naturally did not need to use the cavalry to do the trick, and these surrendered soldiers could complete it.

Jia Cheng witnessed the defeat of the Youzhou Army on the top of the city. He saw that his eyes were straightened. He knew very well that the failure of the Youzhou Army was actually caused by him. If he had not insisted on not opening the city gate and not given the Youzhou Army a chance to enter the city, the Youzhou Army would not have been destroyed in such a way.

Secondly, Jia Cheng also felt the terribleness of the Bingzhou cavalry. They swept across the entire battlefield in an instant, just like the autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. The seemingly vast Youzhou army was so vulnerable, either dead or surrendering, and tens of thousands of people collapsed in a very short period of time.

Zhangwucheng actually did not have many defenders. After seeing the strength of the Bingzhou army, Jia Cheng couldn't help but feel afraid. What should he do if the Bingzhou army launched an attack on Zhangwucheng after destroying the Youzhou army? With Zhangwucheng's troops, they could not stop the Bingzhou army at all!

In an instant, Jia Cheng even thought of abandoning the city and fleeing, but then he thought, what's the use of him even if he escaped from Zhangwu City? With the speed of the Bingzhou cavalry, he could easily catch up with them, but in the end he would still be dead?

So Jia Cheng didn't dare to move at all. He stood above the city wall, Mu Liru died, his face pale as paper, and he felt uneasy and didn't know what to do.

However, after the Bingzhou army surrounded and annihilated the Youzhou army, it did not launch an attack on Zhangwucheng, and even glanced at it. After cleaning up the battlefield, it escorted the prisoners of war and retreated.

Jia Cheng was soaked in a grand amnesty that he fell to the ground. His whole body was soaked in sweat. It was difficult for Jia Cheng to understand why the Bingzhou army ignored Zhang Wucheng after defeating the Youzhou army. When he retreated, he didn't even glance at the corner of his eyes. Is Zhang Wucheng completely disdainful in their eyes?

In fact, Jia Cheng's idea was correct. Wen Qin was indeed disdainful of Zhang Wucheng. Their attack target this time was the Youzhou army, who was chasing thousands of miles away, just to wipe out Wei Guan and Wang Qi. As for Zhang Wucheng, it was not included in their attack targets. So after completing the mission, the Cavalry Camp took the initiative to retreat and did not try to attack Zhang Wucheng.

In fact, at this time, Zhang Wu's defenders had relatively weak forces, and after witnessing the defeat of the Youzhou army, they had already lost their courage. At this time, even the cavalry camp, which was not good at siege, could easily take Zhang Wu City.

But taking Zhangwu City does not seem to have any strategic significance. First of all, Zhangwu City is just a small county under the jurisdiction of Bohai County, Jizhou, and has no high strategic value. Cao Liang has no intention of marching to Jizhou yet, so rashly occupying Zhangwu City is likely to attract the attention of the Jizhou army and affect the overall strategic situation.

This was what Cao Liang advised Wen Qin in advance, and he should not take a city in Jizhou. Even if such a city is within reach, he can only give up for the time being, and it will not be guaranteed that it will affect the overall situation because of greed for small gains.

So Wen Qin respected Cao Liang's order and gave up his plan to attack the city. However, before leaving, he looked at the city head meaningfully. In fact, this battle was so smooth, which was closely related to the "tactic cooperation" of the generals of Zhangwu County. If the gate of Zhangwu City was opened, at least a large number of Youzhou troops would pour into the city and rely on Zhangwu's city walls to defend. In this way, if the cavalry camp wanted to wipe out the Youzhou army, they would have to enter Zhangwu City.

Siege is not the strength of the Xiaoqi Battalion. Once it falls into the siege, the casualties of the Xiaoqi Battalion will inevitably rise significantly. With the protection of the city wall, the Youzhou Army's confidence in resistance will also increase a lot, and at least it will not collapse as easily as in field battles.

Therefore, the Knight Camp can do its best today, thanks to the defender of Zhangwu City. Wen Qin didn't know why the defender made such a stupid move. Both sides even fought and killed each other. If the Knight Camp hadn't taken action to separate them, Wen Qin wouldn't know when they would fight.

However, Wen Qin could not investigate this reason. After all, he could not climb up to the city to ask. What's more, the reason has become no longer important. What's important is the result. The Cavalry Camp won a complete victory, killing thousands of enemies, capturing more than 20,000 alive, capturing Wei Guan alive, and killing Wang Qi in the formation. He was already very satisfied with the result.

Seeing the cavalry camp leaving, Jia Cheng woke up as if he was dreaming. Zhang Wucheng was fine, but he was in trouble.

The Youzhou army was defeated under Zhangwu City and the entire army was destroyed. This matter must alarm the court, and the court would definitely send someone to investigate the matter. Jia Cheng knew very well that he would definitely be blamed. If the court asked someone to come out and take the blame, Jia Cheng believed that he would definitely be unable to escape death.

According to normal operations, Jia Cheng had no problem with his handling. Before understanding the specific situation, no one should open the city without authorization. If the enemy spy is put in, the consequences will be unimaginable.

But the operation was fine, but it resulted in tens of thousands of casualties and capture. Someone must bear such a huge responsibility. Jia Cheng couldn't think of anyone who would be more qualified to bear this responsibility than him, so no matter what the situation was, Jia Cheng was destined to be doomed.

But can't you really escape? Jia Cheng suddenly had an inspiration in his mind. Sima's army would definitely be punished by him, but if he fled to the Bingzhou army, he could remember his merits by blocking the Youzhou army from entering the city.

After thinking about it, if he wants to avoid death, he must take the initiative to surrender to the Bingzhou army. However, the Bingzhou army does not seem to be interested in taking Zhang Wu, so Jia Chengru had to take the initiative to go out of the city to catch up with the Bingzhou army and surrender to it before the Bingzhou army withdraws. In this way, there may be a chance of survival.

So Jia Cheng ordered the troops in the city to be lit up, the city gate was opened, and chased the Bingzhou army regardless of everything.
