Chapter 328 Xitong Pass

A series of preliminary statistics came from Hu Luguang's mouth, and the Gyeonggi Army suffered more than [-] cavalry and infantry casualties in this battle.

Mainly concentrated in the confrontation between the two armies, the continuous fierce battles of small groups of troops occurred, and most of the casualties of nearly [-] Jinyang troops under Gao Huan's command were also caused by this.

When the three-way army fought against the enemy, the Western Wei Dynasty bet on Yuwentai's beheading action. After learning of Yuwentai's failure, the Western Wei army quickly disintegrated with few casualties.

The same is true in the Western Wei army, except that there were a lot of stampede casualties in the chaos. Hu Luguang reported that a total of nearly [-] Western Wei soldiers were found on the battlefield.

The decisive battle with a total of 40 people between the two sides ended with more than [-] cavalry casualties in the Eastern Wei Dynasty and more than [-] people in the Western Wei Dynasty.

What is really astonishing is that nearly [-] soldiers were captured in this battle. Among them, Wei Xiaokuan and Li Yuan captured Yu Jin and led his troops to surrender.

The main force of the Western Wei Dynasty with 14 people, except for 8000 cavalry who went west with Yuwentai, and more than 10 people were killed in battle, nearly [-] people were captured, and more than [-] people are still missing.

According to Gao Cheng's speculation, some of them followed the general to find Yu Wentai, some of them probably hid in the mountains and forests, and the rest probably fled to Xitong Pass like Xiao Ji at a fast pace.

Not many Shu soldiers under Xiao Ji's command died. After all, they had not been involved in the battle before. Afterwards, the whole army collapsed. Xiao Ji led Qingqi into the pass city. It also dropped neatly.

Fifty thousand Shu soldiers except less than a thousand cavalry fled to Xitongguan with Xiao Ji, and all the rest were captured.

However, Xitong Pass is now a dead place. It stands to reason that there is no need to even pay attention to it. It is enough to station a large army outside the pass. When the food in the city is exhausted, Xiao Ji and others will naturally open the city to beg for surrender.

However, in order to avoid sudden changes, after Gao Cheng learned that Xiao Ji entered the pass city, he immediately sent a civil official to Xitong Pass to persuade him to surrender, and negotiated terms with Xiao Ji and others.

In this campaign, nearly 15 troops from the Western Wei Dynasty and the Southern Liang Dynasty were captured, and military supplies such as grain, fodder, and weapons were even more numerous. It can be said that Yuwentai's military strength accumulated over the years was destroyed in one fell swoop. He defeated the [-] cavalry around him, and the results far surpassed the Battle of Hanling where the Gao clan rose.

All the generals congratulated Gao Huan and Gao Cheng one after another, even the newly surrendered generals tried their best to flatter them, as if this defeat had nothing to do with them.

Of course, in such an occasion, there will be no eccentricities. The Gao family and his son have won a big victory and are in high spirits. Wouldn't it be that the leader picks up the food and you turn the table to make troubles at this time?

Yu Jin's head was brought up quickly, even though he was dead, his eyes were wide open, and he probably cursed Gao Cheng before he died.

Thinking about it, since ancient times, being captured and not surrendering, even if he died, the enemy monarch should feel his integrity and treat his family well, but this Gao Cheng did not follow the routine.

In fact, Gao Cheng and Yu Jin met for the first time. They had no grudges in the past, and they have no grudges today. The reason why they targeted him was because they felt tired of seeing these stubborn loyalists of Yuwentai. Reserved.

Also thinking about not involving your family members, you Yu Jin not only want to preserve your reputation, but also your family members to enjoy the wealth and honor, you alone can achieve good things together.

Of course, Gao Cheng is not impulsively making decisions just to get angry for a while. No matter how talented Yu Jin is, he can't use it for himself. Li Yuan.

While Gao's father and son were chatting and laughing with the generals, all the civil servants who had been sent to Xitongguan to persuade them to surrender had to return in full force. Gao Cheng saw that he was not embarrassed, so he knew that there was something to be done about recruiting Xitongguan. It's just the condition.

Sure enough, the civil official told the conditions of the people trapped in Xitong Pass. Xiao Ji hoped that he and Qianqi under his command could be released back to Nanliang, and the general guarding Xitong Pass hoped that he could continue to guard the towns as a matter of course.

Gao Cheng couldn't help laughing out loud when he heard the condition, and Gao Huan who was beside him also shook his head.

No matter what time, this Xiao Ji still wants to bring his thousand cavalry back to the south, why don't you just ask for [-] Shu soldiers to surrender, maybe the Gao family's father and son are out of their minds and really agreed.

In fact, Gao Cheng really didn't like Xiao Ji's cavalry, or it was just a group of single-man and single-horse cavalry infantry, but there were only a few horses in the south. Xiao Ji finally bought a thousand high-quality war horses through trade with Yu Wentai, so he could see them as well. Like a baby.

Gao Cheng was too lazy to bargain with Xiao Ji and others, so he said to the official:

"Go one more time and tell Xiao Ji that if he surrenders, I will allow him to send someone south to ask for a ransom. When the ransom reaches Luoyang, he can go south alone. If he does not surrender, he will not surrender after the city is destroyed." I would like to kill myself, Dawei is rich in products and there are many mines. At that time, it is necessary to invite him to work in the mines.

"As for the general guarding the Xitong Pass, tell him that I will allow him to stay in the army and listen to him, but there is no room for him to discuss how to arrange his father's dictatorship. If the negotiation fails this time, we will wait for Guancheng COFCO Let's talk about it when it's exhausted, but at that time, there won't be such a price tag."

After Gao Cheng finished speaking, he glanced at Gao Huan. Of course, Gao Huan would not compromise his son's majesty on such a trivial matter. He nodded slightly, and got his father's consent. Gao Cheng hurriedly asked the civil servants to go to Xitong Pass again.

For Gao's father and son, Xitong Pass was irrelevant, and they focused more on Chang'an.

The cavalry and horses had almost rested, so Gao Cheng asked for orders to lead the main force of the cavalry to Chang'an in person. Yuwentai couldn't be allowed to go too leisurely, if there was a particularly good opportunity, he would have to fight him again.

Three years ago, Hulu Qiangju asked to lead the main force of the cavalry to attack Chang'an, but Gao Huan refused, because the opponent was from Wuchuan, but now he is his own son. Gao Huan agreed very readily, but he did not forget to warn Gao Cheng to wait for the opportunity However, if you are not sure about moving, you should wait for the army to arrive in Chang'an before making any calculations.

Gao Cheng agreed without hesitation, now that Guan Zhong has won, how could he take any risks.

Obtaining Gao Huan's military order, Gao Cheng stepped out of the temporary tent, mobilized Gao Aocao, Peng Le, and Dou Tai, nearly [-] riders, accompanied by [-] personal guards led by Wei Xingqing, and rode their horses towards Chang'an.

Not long after Gao Cheng left, the civil officials turned back again, and this time finally brought good news, Xiao Ji and others were willing to surrender.

It turned out that as a large number of routs fled to Xitong Pass, the food in the pass city could not last long. Outside the pass, Modolo Daiwen was watching, and behind him there was an army of nearly 20 from the Eastern Wei Dynasty sweeping the battlefield.

Even if the main force of the Eastern Wei Dynasty was destined to go west, Xiao Ji and others would have difficulty getting away with the five thousand cavalry guards under Modolo Daiwen's command. After all, Tongguan guarded by Dugu Yongye blocked the way.

 My left wrist is sore, I'll take a rest first, I'm still 3000 short, let's put it in today's task, [-]:[-], [-]:[-], [-] in the morning, I really need to rest my wrist, I don't know Why is it not the right hand that is more burdened?
