Liangzhou Governor's Mansion, Jincheng County, Jincheng.

Han Sui's eyes were dull, and he sat on the throne in a decadent manner.

Although he has returned to Jincheng, the base camp, Han Sui is still in shock!

No one thought that the Yizhou cavalry who had been chasing and killing the coalition all day would launch a night attack!

The 200,000 troops that had been gathered with great difficulty were dispersed by the cavalry again, and Han Sui did not know exactly how many casualties were caused.

All night, Han Sui was desperately fleeing. He didn't know how long he had been running, but he only knew that by dawn, he had already fled to the foot of Jincheng!

Just when Han Sui was disheartened and thought that the Yizhou army would take advantage of the situation to attack the city, the Yizhou cavalry retreated.

Killed from night to dawn, chased and killed more than fifty miles!

This night, Han Sui also fully understood what it means to be a soldier!

The collapse of the 200,000 troops took only a moment. When the word "enemy attack" spread throughout the barracks, the first reaction of all the soldiers was to run away!

The 200,000-strong army, without a single person resisting, was abruptly driven to Jincheng by more than 10,000 cavalry.

The patriarchs of the five major Qiang tribes were all lost, and even the military commander Cheng Gongying lost their traces. Only Ma Chao and Yan Xing protected Han Sui and returned to Jincheng.

If the disastrous defeat at Yuzhong City was only a blow to Han Sui's arrogance, then this night attack almost defeated Han Sui.

In the pursuit of more than fifty miles, the casualties caused by it are unimaginable!

There are more than 10,000 soldiers who trampled each other to death in the instant of bombing the camp!

After a night of rout, how much is left of the 200,000 troops?

Han Sui couldn't even imagine it!

If another 100,000 is lost, how can Liu Zhang be stopped from aggression?

Yes, Han Sui could no longer imagine defeating Liu Zhang, he was thinking about how to rely on his existing strength to stop Liu Zhang!

Han Sui, who was sitting paralyzed in the governor's mansion, couldn't help but start to question himself again.

Is Liu Zhang too powerful, or is he too stupid?

One day ago now, with an army of 300,000 in hand, he led the army with his head held high and his chest held high!

Now, one day later, more than 100,000 soldiers were lost, and they fled back to Jincheng with their heads in their hands!

If this battle is recorded in the annals of history, Han Sui will not be able to think of anything to describe himself except for the word trash.

Compared with the extremely decadent Han Sui, the expression of Ma Chao sitting below is also very exciting.

If you have to use words to describe it, you can only use four words, doubt life!

The loss of 100,000 troops in the First World War made Ma Chao heartbroken, but after all, there were still 200,000 troops on his side, so it was not really unacceptable.

But after the sneak attack last night, how much is left of the 300,000 troops?

Is this really the result that father Ma Teng wants to see?

In other words, can Liu Zhang really be defeated?

Looking back on the past few months, it seems that since Liu Zhang went north to Hanzhong, Yongliang's forces seem to have never won a single victory!

Even when Liu Zhang's main force was away, when the Liangzhou Jingqi led by Ma Teng and Ma Chao faced Pingxiang and Jixian, they could only lose their lives in vain, and finally looked at the city and sighed.

As Liu Zhang personally led the army to arrive, Ma Teng's army immediately collapsed, and tens of thousands of soldiers were destroyed.

From the beginning to the end, the Yongliang forces seemed to have a huge advantage, but in fact they lost again and again!

The 300,000 army has been defeated, how can we still summon up the courage to fight again?

Even Ma Chao, who knew the inside story well, felt a deep sense of powerlessness at this moment.

Since Han Sui and Ma Chao fled back to Jincheng, they just sat in the governor's mansion in a daze.

Sitting for several hours.

Except for the sound of breathing, no one made any movement.

The sadness of defeat filled the hearts of the two of them!

The wide and empty hall was only because the emotions of the two became extremely depressed.

Fortunately, no worse news came. As time went by, more and more defeated soldiers returned to Jincheng.

It's a pity that morale has long been lost, and the morale of the army has already collapsed. The only good news is that people are still alive.

As long as there are people, everything is not over.

One day later, the military advisor Cheng Gongying and the five Qiang chiefs returned safely, and finally awakened Han Sui who was sluggish.

What surprised Han Sui even more was that this defeat not only did not damage the morale of the Qiang people, but strengthened the determination of the Qiang people to fight against Liu Zhang!

This time they watched the Yizhou army wantonly massacre their Qiang warriors!

With the full support of the Qiang people, Han Sui immediately regained his confidence and tried to fight Liu Zhang again.

Within a few days, almost all the defeated soldiers returned to Jincheng, and finally Han Sui also got the exact number of casualties caused by the night attack.

More than fifty thousand!

For Han Sui, this number was both painful and joyful.

Because more than 50,000 people were far less than the number he estimated, Han Sui was even prepared for 100,000 casualties.

But Han Sui was also heartbroken when he thought of the death and injury of more than 50,000 people.

In one day, more than half of the 300,000 troops were lost!

True to that sentence, even if there were 150,000 pigs, the Yizhou army could not kill them all in one day!

But the reality is that the Qiang-Han coalition forces were driven and chased by the Yizhou army, causing more than 150,000 casualties.

In the conference hall of Jincheng Governor's Mansion, Han Sui and Ma Chao were still sitting, but the look of decadence had long since disappeared.

The spirits of the five Qiang patriarchs were not bad, and they were not defeated by the loss of the 50,000 army.

"Patriarchs, after this defeat, it can be said that we have lost the best chance to defeat Liu Zhang."

Han Sui had to admit the fact that the 30th army came out of Jincheng a few days ago, which was the closest to victory.

Unfortunately, it lost out of nowhere.

"Now we still have an army of 150,000, but the morale is low and the soldiers have no fighting spirit. With such a defeated army, it is almost impossible to defeat Liu Zhang."

Such negative words would have aroused the disgust of everyone in normal times, but now they are completely different.

"Inspector Han, just tell me, how can you defeat Liu Zhang?"

"Yes! How can I defeat him?"

"Han Governor, what do we need to do?"

"..." For a moment, there was an atmosphere of common hatred and hatred in the room.

Han Sui was very pleased that the five patriarchs could work together.

"Patriarchs, Liu Zhang is not a god, and he is just a man! As long as we are united, victory will definitely belong to us!"

If Liu Zhang were here, he would definitely laugh at Han Sui for instilling the idea of ​​poisonous chicken soup in everyone.

But it is these poisonous chicken soups that keep the Qiang people who have lost consecutive battles with high fighting spirit.

"Han Shishi, just tell us, as long as we can do it, we will do our best!"

The five major Qiang tribes have been pushed to a desperate situation, and they can only face one choice, to survive or perish.

As long as Liu Zhang can be eliminated, they can pay more!

"Everyone, I have learned from the pain these days, and finally found the key to defeating Liu Zhang!"

"It's just that there are few soldiers now, and we still need the support of the patriarchs!"

It is indeed too much to call the army of 150,000 soldiers small and few, but compared with the previous record, no one questioned Han Sui's words.

In their eyes, maybe 150,000 people are not qualified to fight Liu Zhang to the death!

"How many troops does the governor of Han need?"

The patriarchs of the five major Qiang tribes all looked at Han Sui. They did have some troops, but these were used to ensure the survival of the tribe.

It's hard to take it out and put all your eggs in one basket unless there is a critical moment of necessity.

But for everyone, at this moment it seems that they have reached the edge of a cliff that is about life and death.

"Everyone..."

Han Sui was taken aback, then slowly raised his right hand.
