Chapter 2243 The Wings Can't Escape

Of course, Wen Qin would not let Tao Huang escape easily. He immediately ordered General Xu Lin, the cavalry, to lead his troops to chase him, and to take Tao Huang down at all costs.

When Tao Huang broke through the encirclement, he only took away some of his men. At this moment, a large number of Wu's troops were trapped in the encirclement of Wei cavalry. The cavalry camp rushed all the way, just like cutting leeks, reaping a large wave of lives.

The Wu army fled everywhere, ramming everywhere like headless flies, but the battlefield was full of Wei cavalry. This crazy running around could not change their fate at all. They could only be crushed and trampled by Wei cavalry or killed with a knife, with countless casualties.

Most of the Wu soldiers were not fools. Seeing that the chief general Tao Huang had already escaped, they wanted to escape with Tao Huang, but there were many Wei cavalry ahead. If they blocked them a little, the road ahead would be blocked.

There is no hope of breaking through, and the main general escapes, Wu Jun becomes a mess. At this time, those who don’t want to die will naturally choose a relatively humiliating way of survival - surrender.

They threw away their weapons, raised their hands, and surrendered to the Wei army.

Of course, the Wei army would not kill prisoners. As long as these Wu soldiers were willing to put down their weapons and surrender, they would no longer be the targets of attack by the Wei cavalry. When the Wei cavalry rushed up, they naturally avoided the surrendered Wu soldiers and continued to chase the Wu soldiers who were fighting stubbornly.

Among these Wu soldiers, there are not those who fight to the death, but such people are rare. Most ordinary soldiers are still very eager to survive. In order to survive, they can surrender without hesitation.

No matter what kind of life they will face in the future, they will still be alive, and no matter what, they will be much better than dying on the battlefield in vain.

And at this time, the Wei cavalry rushed and shouted loudly: "Those who surrendered are exempt from death! Those who surrender are exempt from death!"

To be honest, this slogan is really fascinating, especially for those Wu soldiers who are on the verge of despair. Under the current situation, these Wu soldiers will definitely not be able to fight, but there is basically no hope of escaping. There seems to be no other choice except death.

But everyone was afraid of death, and no one wanted to die. So when the slogan of the surrendered person was shouted, the Wu soldiers surrendered one after another, and few more resisted.

The entire Qiniuling battle ended soon. Half of the Wu army died in battle and surrendered half. Except for Tao Huang, who led a few men and horses to escape, most of the Wu army were wiped out.

Moreover, from the beginning to the end of the battle, it only lasted for an hour and a half. The Knight Camp won the battle like chopping melons and vegetables. Judging from the progress of the battle, the two sides were not on the same order of magnitude at all.

Although Tao Huang temporarily broke through the siege and saved his life, he was also very collapsed in his heart. The defeat of this battle was so miserable that Tao Huang never expected.

In Tao Huang's idea, although the Wei army had some advantages in military strength, the Wu army had at least a advantage in geographical advantages. They fought at home and waited for work. Even if they were really out of the way, there would be no problem with sticking to it for a while. At that time, Tao Huang would look at the situation again. If he couldn't defeat it, it would not be too late to retreat.

Moreover, Tao Huang has applied for reinforcements from Tao Ji. Once reinforcements arrive, Tao Huang will be more confident to defend Jieyang.

But after just one battle, Tao Huang's ambition was completely destroyed. The Wei cavalry was really terrifying. In just over an hour, Tao Huang's men and horses were completely defeated. Tao Huang had at least deployed 7,000 men on the Qiniuling, but in the end he escaped, with only a few hundred men left, and the rest of the men and horses were destroyed.

This result was really difficult for Tao Huang to accept, but he had to accept it. He was not as good as others and was willing to take the lead.

But can Tao Huang escape? He had just left Qiniuling, and there was a sudden sound of horse hooves behind him. It turned out that a team of cavalry led by the Wei cavalry general Xu Lin personally chased him. Tao Huang was leaving in a desert and did not dare to fight at all.

Although Tao Huang's escaped had some cavalry, the speeds of cavalry and cavalry were much different.

The information in Jiaozhou is relatively closed. After the equipment of war horses in the Central Plains has been upgraded, the war horses in Jiaozhou are still old-fashioned harnesses, without high-bridge saddles and double-sided stirrups.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that Wu does not pay attention to war horses. In Wu, there are basically no cavalry. Because the Wu country is densely populated with water and many rivers, many Wu people travel mainly by boats, horses and carriages, etc., which are rarely used by the people. Even in the army, the number of war horses is very small.

Moreover, the war horses in the south are relatively shorter in size, unlike the tall horses in the north, so no one takes the war horse seriously, so the high bridge saddle and double-sided stirrup have long been popularized in the Central Plains, and few people in the Wu Kingdom have adopted them.

At this moment, Tao Huang fled on a horse, and finally realized that no matter how fast he ran, the Wei army's cavalry always bit behind him and could not shake it.

Tao Huang couldn't help but panic. If he fled from Jieyang to Panyu, there would be at least hundreds of miles. Even if he was riding a horse, it would have to walk for two or three days. If the Wei cavalry kept chasing him so hard, Tao Huang would have no chance to escape. I'm afraid he would be chased by the Wei army halfway.

Moreover, when the Wei army chased and killed each other, Tao Huang had to use the troops from the back to intercept it, sacrificing some of them to delay the Wei army's pursuit speed.

But this method has little effect. Xu Lin followed Wen Qin's order to take Tao Huang down, so how could he let him escape? Even though Wu soldiers kept coming to die, for the cavalry, they would receive as many heads as the Wu soldiers gave.

As for the speed of pursuit, it will not be affected much. Wait for the cavalry to deal with these Wu soldiers and seize these heads, and then sprint to chase them again, and quickly catch up with the falling distance.

Tao Huang wanted to cut off his tail and survive, but Wei Jun did not give him this opportunity at all.

At this time, Tao Huang was completely desperate. The war horse under his crotch ran through such a long distance at high speed. By this time, his four hooves were already weak and foaming at the mouth. He was obviously exhausted and could not even run. It seemed that Tao Huang could not escape and could only surrender.
