The general beside him said, "Sir, the main force of the enemy has just returned, and there is still a chance. Let's break through quickly!" Mi Zhu suddenly became moved, but he felt that he could not give up Changling just like this, and frowned and said, "Leave without fighting and lose the important city of Changling. How should I tell the lord to the lord!" The general hurriedly said, "It's not that the lord doesn't want to defend, but that the situation has to give up! It's useless to trap Changling, but it will also cause himself and the tens of thousands of troops to die and sacrifice in vain! It's really not worth it! The lord is wise, how can he not understand the truth of this? How can he blame him? Moreover, the lord saved tens of thousands of troops for the lord, which can be said to have made a great contribution!"

Mi Zhu felt that what he said made sense. He also thought that Zhao Yun had just led his army back and would not launch an attack for the time being. This was his only chance to retreat to Youfufeng. As soon as he thought of this, Mi Zhu no longer hesitated and immediately said to the general: "Go and assemble the army, we will retreat to Youfufeng tonight!" The general was happy and ran down immediately. Retreating to Youfufeng was not a decision by Mi Zhu on a whim, but a retreat in the previously designated strategy. At that time, Zhuge Liang was still the military advisor whom Liu Bei relied on. Zhuge Liang's worst step in formulating the overall defense strategy of Guanzhong was to retreat to Youfufeng, Wu Gong, Meiwu, and Chen Cang, which went west along the Wei River, and resisted step by step to offset the attack power of the Qin army and ultimately ensured the Xiliang area and Xichuan.

In Zhuge Liang's plan, the worst result must be kept in Chen Cang, because Chen Cang is east of Wuyue Mountain and north of Sanguan. Only by keeping here can we ensure the connection between Xichuan and Xiliang. Otherwise, Xiliang and Xichuan would be cut off by the Qin army, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

In the middle of the night that day, the west gate of Changling opened, and Mi Zhu led a 30,000 army to quietly leave Changling and prepare to retreat to Youfufeng. Youfufeng is just north of the Wei River, just like Changling, so Mi Zhu does not need to cross the Wei River, but just retreat westward.

Mi Zhu's actions were soon noticed by the scout arranged by Zhao Yun, and the scout immediately reported to Zhao Yun. Zhao Yun was a little surprised when he received the scout's report. However, the generals were eager to try, and one of them clasped his fists excitedly and said: "General, if the enemy retreats, our army can attack immediately, and we can kill them without leaving any armor!" The other generals agreed, all of them looking impatient.

However, Zhao Yun did not immediately decide. He was considering whether this would be a plan by the other party? Because Changling has a great relationship, giving up means giving up all the cities on both sides of the Jingshui River north of Changling. Will Mi Zhu do this? Zhao Yun thought about it and paused, finally stopped, muttering to himself: "No matter whether it was his plan or not, am I still afraid that he would not succeed?" Then he shouted: "All infantry guard the camps and be careful, and all cavalry will follow me!" The generals clasped their fists to agree.

Mi Zhu led his army to retreat westward from Changling West Gate. Because it was the infantry, the speed of traveling was far lower than Mi Zhu's expectations. Seeing this scene, Mi Zhu felt a little anxious and couldn't help but regret it. He regretted that he shouldn't have escaped from Changling so recklessly. If he was caught up by the enemy cavalry, the consequences would be unimaginable!

As the saying goes, what you are afraid of is what you are afraid of! Mi Zhu is worried about the appearance of Qin cavalry, so Qin cavalry appears. Just as Mi Zhu's army retreated westward, a scout suddenly rushed over and reported to Mi Zhu in panic: "No, sir! Qin cavalry! It's Qin cavalry!..." As if responding to his words, a rumbling sound came from the east, like a muffled thunder in the night sky, quickly approaching here from afar! Mi Zhu and the generals around him all showed panic and helplessness.

The expression came, like a flock of sheep under thunder, all of whom were in a state of despair! Mi Zhu calmed down and shouted anxiously: "I don't have all the supplies! The troops in the back immediately lined up to intercept the enemy!" Liu Bei's army was still well-trained in a hundred battles. Although he was a little panicked, he could still take action as quickly as possible after hearing Mi Zhu's order. The army discarded the supplies and materials and retreated at full speed, and the six thousand troops in the back quickly lined up on the spot to intercept the Qin army's pursuers!

After a while, the Qin army pursuers appeared in front of Liu Bei's army. The officers and soldiers of Liu Bei couldn't help but feel nervous and held their breath. The general shouted loudly: "Prepare for the fight!" The officers and soldiers tightened their nerves and prepared to face the opponent's impact.

However, something unexpected happened to Liu Bei's officers and soldiers. The Qin army cavalry that rushed forward suddenly separated to both sides as if they had encountered a torrent of obstacles, and rushed past both sides of their military formation. Seeing this, Liu Bei's officers and soldiers were caught off guard and at a loss.

Zhao Yun led 20,000 combat cavalry to bypass the current blockade and rushed towards the Mi Zhu army that was retreating. The retreating Mi Zhu army suddenly heard the sound of iron hooves coming from behind quickly, and felt extremely surprised and at a loss. Seeing the Qin army cavalry coming in the dark like a tide, Mi Zhu couldn't help but stare at and shout, "What's going on?!" He probably couldn't understand why the wrong thing in the rear did not play any role?

Seeing that the army was in chaos, Mi Zhu immediately shouted anxiously: "Hurry! Come on a formation to fight!" However, the army was in chaos, and the Qin army cavalry had already rushed in! The Qin army's iron cavalry was swept into the middle of Liu Bei's army like a strong wind, trampling on iron hooves, killing swords and guns, sweeping thousands of troops as if swept through the mat. Under this violent rush, Liu Bei's officers and soldiers fell to the ground like sorghum in the flood! Liu Bei's army was completely in chaos. They didn't care about the orders of their companions and officers, and they threw away their armor and ran for life. At this moment, everyone just wanted to escape! The scene was like a pack of wolves rushing into the flock of sheep, and the battle was completely one-sided!

Mi Zhu looked at the chaotic scene in front of him, looking completely stupid. Under the support of his personal guards, he ran straight to the west involuntarily!

Zhao Yun led his army to completely defeat the enemy, and then ordered a group of troops to clean the battlefield. He himself led another group of troops to return to the front of the broken Liu Bei army. After learning that the large army was raided, the Liu Bei army hurried to prepare to support the large army, but unexpectedly they collided with Zhao Yun's cavalry. The general in charge of the team leader was shocked and quickly ordered the army to stop and prepare for the battle.

Zhao Yun ordered his cavalry to stop, attack the horse, and shouted, "Everyone listens! Mi Zhu's army has been completely defeated by our army, and you are already in a desperate situation!" When Liu Bei's officers and soldiers heard this, everyone was panicked and at a loss. Zhao Yun continued, "Everyone is Han, I don't want to kill you, so I advise you not to resist meaninglessly! Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. I, Zhao Yun, can guarantee your life safety!" Liu Bei's officers and soldiers looked at each other, looking very moved. At this time, a general suddenly shouted loudly: "Zhao Yun, we are all loyal ministers of Uncle Liu, and we must be loyal to Uncle Liu! Don't think we will surrender to you! If you have the ability, let the horse come over!"

When the Liu Bei soldiers heard this, they were at a loss. Zhao Yun frowned and suddenly rushed out, rushing straight into Liu Bei's army like a white whirlwind. Seeing this, Liu Bei soldiers subconsciously wanted to attack. However, Zhao Yun's speed was too fast. Before these officers and soldiers could react, Zhao Yun had already passed through the crowd and rushed to the front of the general! The general was shocked and even wanted to attack with a gun, the dragon gall spear in Zhao Yun's hand had already broken through the wind! When the general reacted, he was shocked to see that the other party's dragon gall spear had pierced his chest! The general was extremely frightened and unbelievable!

Zhao Yun shook his hand and took the general off the battle horse. The Liu Bei soldiers were frightened and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Zhao Yun glanced at the troops and shouted, "Do you want to surrender or resist to the end?" A general quickly threw away his weapons and jumped off his horse, bowing to Zhao Yun, "We are willing to surrender to the King of Qin!" Seeing this, the others would hesitate and kneel down and surrender one after another. So, Zhao Yun surrendered the army of 6,000 people when he killed only one opponent.

On the other side, Mi Zhu fled west in a panic and finally fled into Youfufeng. Then he calmed down and counted the army, and found that the 30,000 troops left when he left Changling, only five or six thousand people were left! Mi Zhu wanted to cry without tears, and felt very uneasy, and he felt that he was really ashamed of his lord's trust.

Liu Bei, who was in Chang'an, was connected to the defeat. When he learned that Zuo Fengyi had lost one after another and his side suffered heavy losses, he felt worried and at a loss. He felt that this was the result of Zhuge Liang's betrayal of him, so he wanted to execute Zhuge Liang immediately. However, considering Zhuge Liang's position in the hearts of the military and civilians in Guanzhong, Liu Bei temporarily put forward this idea and planned to deal with it after the war was over!

When Liu Bei thought of the current situation, his heart felt like he was inflamed. He felt that it was already quite difficult to defend Chang'an in this situation. At this time, his personal soldiers came to report that the two wives had returned from labor. Liu Bei suddenly felt his heart moved and wanted to discuss the current situation with his two wives. As soon as he thought of this, he quickly walked out of the hall.

In the Qin army tent outside the city, Ai Lang laughed loudly, looking very happy. No wonder he was so happy. First, Sun Ren broke the opponent's plan to attack Qin Pass in one fell swoop, and then Zhao Yun took advantage of the situation to break through two important towns in Zuo Fengyi Changling, severely attacking the opponent and capturing Zhang Ren. The situation suddenly became great! Now Liu Bei's situation in Guanzhong can be said to be in a turbulent state!

Ailang praised: "Zhao Zilong, Changshan, is indeed amazing! He won consecutive battles and greatly increased the military power of our army! He passed on my order to reward Zhao Zilong and his soldiers!"

Later that day, Ailang came to the tent where Zhang Ren was imprisoned and saw Zhang Ren sitting there with a sad face.
