Without hesitation, the two men immediately waved their hands and ordered the entire army to attack. With the order from the two men, countless Yue cavalry, countless rows of spearmen, archers, sword and shield soldiers, etc., poured out of Yiting City like water released from a floodgate and rushed towards the Cao army camp.
"Kill!"
"Kill all the grass soldiers"
... ...
The shouts of killing were deafening, morale was high, and the entire coalition army was mobilized, risking everything, as if they wanted to achieve complete victory in one battle.
Zhou Dewei also led the Shuozhou guards out of Yiting and rushed towards the Cao army camp. Zhu Li personally led the troops to charge the camp. The Shuozhou soldiers tried their best. Invisibly, their morale was soaring, far surpassing the armies under the command of Wang and Li.
After setting fire to the Cao army's granary, Zhu Li turned his horse around and charged out. He and Meng Juehai were like the sharp arrowheads of an arrow, cutting through the thorns and waves and being invincible. The Yue cavalry following behind them also fought hard and advanced courageously.
A general of the Grass Army stood under the Grass Army's flag, looking at Zhu Li and Meng Juehai who were rushing towards them. His eyes were red, as if he wanted to swallow the two of them in one bite.
Upon seeing this man, Zhu Li said nothing, knocked on the belly of Jade Unicorn's horse, and rushed forward with his spear. The only way to defeat the enemy is to capture the leader first.
Wang Zhongyin was also a veteran of Huang Chao's army, and his skills were not much weaker than Meng Juehai's.
This person suddenly appeared, which was beyond the expectations of Zhu Li and Meng Juehai. The situation was urgent now, and the cavalry charge was most afraid of sluggishness. Facing this person, Zhu Li did not dare to leave any spare strength. At the same time, Meng Juehai was like meeting a strong enemy, with a strong desire to fight and ready to go.
The Jade Unicorn flew as fast as lightning. Zhu Li raised the steel spear in his hand, clasped his legs tightly around the horse's belly, raised his body high on the horse's back, and swung the spear fiercely. The Jade Unicorn kept attacking, and the steel spear flew like a sword, as if it could break through everything and make him invincible.
Wang Zhongyin was equally unwilling to be outdone. Zhu Li charged forward quickly, but he was not slow in blocking him either. He suddenly raised the spear in his hand above his head and also straightened his body to block the attack head-on without giving in.
"when"
"Plop"
Zhu Li attacked with all his strength, and Yu Qilin leaped into the air, but Wang Zhongyin actually chose to take it head-on. One must know that this spear not only contained all of Zhu Li's strength, but also the weight of a man and a horse. Unless the Overlord was alive, no one would dare to say that he could intercept it with certainty.
When the two spears collided, Wang Zhongyin felt that what fell from the sky was not a steel spear, but a golden mountain as heavy as the Five Great Mountains. Under the opponent's attack, his knuckles suddenly broke, and even the arms holding the spears trembled a little. His chest felt stuffy and he almost suffocated.
Although he took the blow, the warhorse under him was not as resistant as he was. All four legs stumbled, and in an instant the warhorse under his crotch collapsed to the ground like a collapsed attic, completely destroyed.
Zhu Li struck out without even looking back, and rode straight past. Meng Juehai, who was following closely behind Zhu Li, rode his horse to meet Wang Zhongyin at this moment. The Li Guan Spear in his hand had already been charged with power, and suddenly he saw his former comrade, whose horse was broken by Zhu Li's attack, standing there in a daze with a miserable look on his face. The Li Guan Spear, which he had intended to stab out, suddenly changed its direction, changing from stabbing to smashing. The tip of the Li Guan Spear rose up and hit the back of the neck of Wang Zhongyin, who was in a state of suffocation. Wang Zhongyin, who was already almost suffocated, could not withstand such a blow and fainted instantly.
The guard running behind Meng Juehai grabbed Wang Zhongyin without thinking and lifted him up.
Holding the spear in his hand and hanging it horizontally on his horse, Zhu Li followed the commander and paralyzed Wang Zhongyin. He then swung the spear and directly broke the flag of Wang Zhongyin, the commander of the Cao army. Then he galloped away on his horse and shouted, "Wang Zhongyin is dead. He will not be killed if he surrenders."
All this happened slowly. In the eyes of the officers of the Cao army, they only saw Wang Zhongyin bravely facing Zhu Li's attack. Then, they saw the warhorse under his crotch suddenly kneel on the ground, splashing countless mud. When the mud dissipated, they looked again, but there was no trace of Wang Zhongyin. They only saw the enemy general waving his spear and roaring like a god.
As Zhu Li roared, the thousands of Yue cavalrymen behind him shouted at the same time: "Wang Zhongyin is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed."
"Wang Zhongyin is already dead, so we won't kill him if he surrenders."
... ... .
After hearing the shouts of thousands of people, the officers and soldiers of the Cao army were initially unconvinced, but when they looked at Wang Zhongyin's flag, they were helpless to discover a fact: Wang Zhongyin's flag had been broken and he himself had disappeared without a trace. The general is the courage of the soldiers, and now his courage is gone. The officers and soldiers of the Cao army were at a loss and became panic-stricken all day long.
At this time, Wang Chongying, Li Xiaochang and Zhou Dewei had already led their men into the camp. The camp was on fire, and the life or death of Wang Zhongyin, one of the main generals, was unknown. Countless guards suddenly fled in panic, running around like headless flies.
In one of the Cao army's tents, two Cao army lieutenants desperately called out to Shang Rang who was lying on the bed, "General, General, something terrible has happened. The coalition forces are attacking us."
"General, please wake up."
... ... .
Judging from their expressions and hearing their voices, this kind of shouting must have been going on for quite some time. However, Shang Rang, lying on the bed, was still snoring loudly and sleeping soundly.
A captain rushed in. Seeing the two lieutenants who were afraid to move and only knew how to scream, but did not dare to go up and wake Shang Rang, he was furious. At this time, they were still afraid of the general's taboo. The captain was a little brave and ignored the two captains. He rushed to the bed and pulled Shang Rang up. He slapped him on the cheek and said, "General, general, wake up quickly. It's bad. General Wang was killed by the enemy. Wake up quickly."
His trick really worked. Shang Rang opened his eyes hazily at first and stared at him blankly for a while. Suddenly he realized something and his eyes became clear immediately. He pulled the captain over and shouted, "What did you say? Say it again."
When the captain saw Shang Rang wake up, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately repeated, "General, the coalition forces have invaded our camp. Now there are fires everywhere in the camp. General Wang has been killed by the coalition general Zhu Li. Go out and take a look."
As soon as the captain said this, Shang Rang's expression suddenly changed, and he shouted loudly: "Quickly take my armor and weapons, quickly."
The two lieutenants on the left and right had already prepared everything. Upon hearing what he said, they immediately stepped forward to help him put on the armor. After Shang Rang was fully dressed, he stepped out of the tent, holding a large red-gold ring knife. But at this moment, wherever he looked, he saw fire everywhere, and countless panicked and running around grass army guards.
To the north of the camp, countless allied forces rushed in, and two large flags fluttered wildly in the strong wind. On the flags were embroidered two large characters "Wang" and "Li", which was very eye-catching in Shang Rang's eyes.
"What are you still standing there for? Wave the flags and gather the troops." Shang Rang
His expression was solemn, as if tears were about to drip.
"promise"
The generals under his command quickly began to wave flags to gather the Cao Army guards, but at this time, how many soldiers could they gather? Obviously, it couldn't be too many.
As soon as the soldiers and horses gathered, numbering in the thousands, Shang Rang could no longer wait. He was as hot-tempered as fire, and could not wait to brandish his sword and ride his horse to kill Wang Chongying and Li Xiaochang. These two were too eye-catching, and Shang Rang was a stubborn, sturdy and brave man who always liked to brave the rain of arrows and take the lead. If he didn't go after these two people, who else would he go after
Shang Rang was not only a veteran general of Huang Chao, but also Wang Xianzhi's right-hand man. Speaking of rebellion, Shang Rang had more experience than Huang Chao. After Huang Chao established the Da Qi regime, he immediately appointed Shang Rang as the Grand Marshal, which shows his prestige. Now that he rushed forward in person, he immediately aroused the bravery of the Cao army. If the superiors fought to the death, how could his subordinates dare to cherish their lives
Countless Cao Army guards, seeing Shang Rang's flag, rushed through the sea of fire without hesitation, gathered towards Shang Rang, and then killed the troops of Wang Chongying and Li Xiaochang who were rushing towards them.
The battle instantly turned into a fierce fight. The flashing of swords, the shouting of people and the neighing of horses suddenly resounded through the sky, sweeping across the entire long night sky.
With Wang Chongying and Li Xiaochang acting as targets and attracting the most fierce firepower of the Cao army, Zhu Li led the Yue cavalry and quickly rushed out from one side of the Cao army camp. After counting the men and horses, Zhu Li found that in just a short while, they did not go through a fierce battle. There were less than 3,000 of the nearly 5,000 Yue cavalry left. Just now, the Shuozhou Yue cavalry was no less than in a dragon's den and a tiger's lair.
At this time, he had no time to feel sorry for these elite Yue cavalry. He led his men and horses to make a big circle and rushed out from the other side of the Cao army camp. The direction of their spears was exactly the side of the Cao army where Shang Rang was resisting Wang Chongying and Li Xiaochang. The Cao army, which was already in danger, was suddenly attacked again, and the attack was by 3,000 Yue cavalry. It was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, and it suddenly collapsed. Even with Shang Rang's example of risking his life, it did not play much of a role.
Who knows how many such coalition forces are hiding in the darkness? A small group of people fled out of fear, leading to the complete collapse of the entire Cao army.
The defeat was like a landslide. Now was the best time to pursue the victory and reap the fruits of victory. The most elite Shuozhou Yueqi around Zhu Li suffered such heavy losses, which showed that the losses of the entire Shuozhou army were definitely not small.
In the whole Shuozhou, if we talk about the most elite Yue cavalry, I am afraid that none can compare to Zhu Li's Yabing. The Yabing has the best equipment. The second is the Yue cavalry commanded by Zhu Li himself. However, even such an elite force suffered more than 40% losses just from the Cao army camp, not to mention the more than 5,000 infantry led by Zhou Dewei. They were lucky to have one or two thousand people left in the end.
It's not that they are not elite, but Zhu Li is the vanguard. Zhou Dewei is concerned about Zhu Li and would certainly not dare to not try his best. At this time, the only right thing to do is to try his best to surrender the Cao army guards.
As soon as he thought of this, Zhu Li immediately shouted loudly: "Shang Rang has escaped, the Cao army has been defeated, and he will not be killed if he surrenders."
"Surrender and you won't be killed."
... ... .
The guards and personal soldiers behind him naturally followed Zhu Li in shouting loudly, and Wang Chongying and Li Xiaochang also suffered heavy losses. Although Shang Rang only resisted hastily for more than half an hour, almost every Cao army guard who followed Shang Rang in the attack was in high spirits and brave and fearless, and the losses he brought to them were indeed not small.
