"What?"
Cao Yin was taken aback, then became furious. He found a high position to look, and sure enough, behind the Da Zhou Army, the Xiliang Army was desperately chasing. Some who ran slower were being hacked down by the Xiliang people!
"Those two bastards, don't they know to cover the retreat while escaping?"
"Father, what should we do next? Please instruct us!"
Cao Yin watched the troops rushing into the city, clenching his fists tightly.
"Great General, we have no choice but to sacrifice some people!"
Li Qingmu said slowly, with a face showing no joy or sorrow, which made him appear cold-blooded. But Cao Yin knew this was the only and best way.
Closing the city gates takes time. Once the enemy holds on tightly, they would desperately hold both sides, making it impossible to close the gates. If that happened, Hanshui Pass would be breached.
Cao Yin closed his eyes painfully.
Once the gates are closed, those soldiers would surely be chopped to death by random blades...
