When they saw Li Jing and Niu Jinda heading straight for the south gate with at least 50,000 to 60,000 troops, the hearts of Cui Junchuo, Cui Wenji, Zheng Shuwu, Pan Zhenyue and others collapsed!
Just a moment ago, when they were all happily thinking that the victory was certain and they could finally break out of the siege, the army led by Li Jing and Niu Jinda extinguished the fire of hope in their hearts!
Two thousand Xuanjia troops and ten thousand Fu soldiers caused such serious losses to them. Now that the Tang Dynasty War God came with an army of fifty or sixty thousand troops, what the hell are they doing
In terms of reputation, Li Jing is much more powerful than the Xuanjia Army. The Army God of the Tang Dynasty has never been defeated since his debut!
Cui Quan was also a little confused at this moment. He looked at the dark and thin veteran who called himself "Lao Niu" and was shocked: "Could this be Niu Jinda of Langya County? Then the army he brought, how could it be?" Not the elite from the capital~? Who can withstand this~!"
"General Manager Li's reinforcements are here, generals, listen to the order! Follow me and kill! Kill all the rebels without leaving any trace behind~!"
When Wu Feng saw the army coming from the west, he was overjoyed and shouted loudly.
"Kill! Kill! Kill~!"
Hearing that the reinforcements had arrived, the imperial army's morale suddenly surged and they launched an even more fierce charge towards the rebels!
At this time, Niu Jinda had already led his troops to kill him. As soon as he made contact, four or five rebels were knocked away by him. Then he was seen holding a long sword and slashing left and right. In an instant, more than a dozen soldiers were killed by him. Under the sword, he is extremely brave~!
"Ho~!"
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
Seeing that their general was so brave and powerful, although the army behind Niu Jinda had been traveling for a day and a night and was extremely exhausted, they could not help but feel hot when they saw this scene. Their bodies were filled with ancient power and they forgot all about it. Tired, he launched a charge without fear of death!
For Cui Quan, the situation on the battlefield at this moment took a turn for the worse. Soon, his army of hundreds of thousands was scattered and completely defeated!
"Ming Jin withdraws his troops! Quick! Ming Jin withdraws his troops! Everyone returns to the city immediately~!"
Cui Junchuo, who was watching the battle on the tower, hurriedly gave instructions.
Cui Wenji and Zheng Shuwu looked at each other, shook their heads, and said nothing!
Obviously, they also believed that Cui Quan's men could not defeat Li Jing's men!
"Here~!"
A soldier rushed away.
"Dang Dang Dang~!"
After a while, a sound similar to a gong sounded from the tower.
"Xunzi Han Bing" wrote: "Hear the sound of drums and advance, hear the sound of gold and retreat." The intention is to beat the drums to order the attack, and to ring the gold to order the troops to retreat.
In ancient times, east, west, south, north, and middle were used to correspond to the five elements, namely, east wood, west metal, south fire, north water, and middle earth. Due to the underdeveloped science and technology in ancient times, troops were usually withdrawn before sunset in wars. At sunset, the sun is in the west, so there is a saying that the troops must be withdrawn with gold. That is to say, blowing the horn of the setting sun means that the soldiers return to the city to rest.
"Retreat! Retreat to the city! The people of the 13th and 14th Battalions stay behind!"
When Cui Quan heard the sound of gold ringing on the tower, he breathed a sigh of relief and gave the order decisively.
Facing Niu Jinda, a famous general of the Tang Dynasty, he couldn't muster the courage to fight him, let alone win the battle. If he could retreat, he would be eager to retreat!
"Captain! Why do you want to cut off the soldiers from our two battalions?"
A young general roared unwillingly at this time.
"Captain Song, this is an order!"
Cui Quan glanced at the young general coldly, and then said: "All other officers and soldiers listen to the order and the entire army retreats into the city!"
After that, he turned the horse's head and drove away at the lead!
The remaining 100,000 rebels quickly followed Cui Quanshi and ran towards the city gate.
Although the thousands of soldiers of the Thirteenth and Fourteenth Battalions were reluctant, due to the overwhelming military orders, they could only stay at the end to stop the imperial army!
There were fewer and fewer rebels on the battlefield, and after a while, only these two battalions of soldiers were left!
Just when the captains of the two battalions wanted to lead their troops back to the city, they saw that the wooden bridge on the moat had been taken away and the city gate was gradually closing.
"Ah~! Cui Quan, you have to die~!"
When Captain Song saw this, he realized that these two thousand people had been abandoned, and he let out an unwilling roar!
At this time, Niu Jinda and his army had surrounded these two thousand troops. He said coldly: "Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. I may be able to spare your lives~!"
"Thank you, General Niu, we surrender! We surrender~!"
After hearing this, the rebels put down their weapons without hesitation. Since Cui Quan used them as cannon fodder, why should they hesitate
"Take them all down~!"
Niu Jinda waved his hand, and soldiers took away the prisoners.
At this time, Niu Jinda looked at Cui Junchuo and others on the tower and shouted loudly: "Cui Junchuo, you are treasonous and disrespectful of the king's kindness. You have openly rebelled against the court. Niu advises you to surrender early, otherwise you will die without a complete body~!" "
Cui Junchuo was a little desperate at this moment. The appearance of Li Jing and Niu Jinda completely made him lose any chance of winning. However, the matter had come to this point. Retreating would be death, and advancing would be death. He could no longer look back.
"Niu Jinda, it is impossible for me, Cui Junchuo, to surrender! There are still more than 200,000 troops in the city. If you and Manager Li want to attack the city, then come!"
A trace of viciousness flashed in Cui Junchuo's eyes. Even if there was no chance of winning, he would drag the entire city with him to be buried with him!
"Hmph! This old bastard is so ignorant!"
Niu Jinda said angrily.
"Okay, Jinda, clean up the battlefield as soon as possible, and then you take the remaining Xuanjia Army to support Shubao and Zhijie! Leave this place to me~!"
Li Jing walked up at this time, patted Niu Jinda on the shoulder, and said softly.
"Oh! Okay! I'll do it right now!"
Niu Jinda was horrified, and then he remembered that there were two armies fighting in the south. He clasped his fists in response and hurriedly went to reorganize the Xuanjia Army!
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Southern suburb of Guancheng County.
The 50,000 secret guards of the Cui and Zheng families, and the 40,000 government soldiers mobilized by Duan Zhixuan, both suffered heavy casualties, but in the end, the Cui and Zheng family's secret guards had the upper hand!
The situation between Duan Zhixuan's Xuanjia Army and the Cui and Zheng families' enshrinement hall and death camp was even more one-sided. More than half of the Xuanjia Army had been killed or wounded, and Duan Zhixuan himself was also seriously injured. There are blood stains, some from the enemy and some from yourself!
It can be said that if this battle continues like this, all the people brought by Duan Zhixuan are likely to be wiped out!
So what if the Xuanjia Army is unparalleled in bravery? The Cui and Zheng family's enshrining hall are all top-notch masters; while the dead soldiers' camp is full of assassins who are not afraid of death! In terms of combat power, the Xuanjia Army is not much stronger, not to mention that the opponent's number is several times theirs!
"Hey! Xuanjia Army? Didn't you say that three thousand Xuanjia Army can defeat a hundred thousand army? Why is the leader of Xuanjia Army so vulnerable~?"
Wang Tieshou knocked Duan Zhixuan to the ground with one punch, and then said sarcastically.
But this dear friend doesn't know the principle that "villains have always died from talking too much", so he wants to make a few sarcastic remarks and show off his power!
"Pfft~!"
Duan Zhixuan stood up unsteadily with his horse on the ground, looked at Wang Tieshou, and said coldly: "The reputation of the Xuanjia Army is not in your turn to make rash comments! Wait until the reinforcements arrive." , let’s see how long you can continue to be arrogant!”
"Haha! Reinforcements? If you have reinforcements, why haven't they arrived for so long? You should ask your reinforcements to come quickly~!"
Wang Tieshou said with a sneer.
In this battle, although three of them were fighting one master, the three of them basically lost. At this time, he was feeling angry. Now that he had finally defeated Duan Xuanzhi, of course he had to succeed. The majesty of the winner!
"Bang bang bang~!"
Suddenly, there was a burst of dense and rapid footsteps outside the mountain road, and the expressions of Wang Tieshou, Cui Shen, Zheng Huaijie and others suddenly changed!
"No! Their reinforcements are coming~!"
Cui Shen said in panic.
"Hey~! How dare the remnants of a mere aristocratic family resist the imperial army! Soldiers, follow me and kill~! Kill them all without leaving any trace behind~!"
Cheng Yaojin took the lead and rushed over with a horse in his hand!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The five thousand elites brought by Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong rushed forward without hesitation!
"Damn it! There are actually reinforcements! Then go die first~!"
Wang Tieshou's old face darkened, secretly hating that he had just been mean. He picked up a knife next to a dead soldier on the ground with his foot, then held the knife with one hand and slashed towards Duan Zhixuan's neck!
"Hey! How dare you, old man~!"
At the critical moment, Cheng Yaojin roared and threw the horse in his hand, aiming only at Wang Tieshou!
Wang Tieshou didn't dare to carry it hard, so he quickly got out of the way, and the horse spear pierced the ground diagonally, sinking deep into the ground!
This shows how powerful Cheng Yaojin's blow was!
"call out!"
In this moment, Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong came hand in hand and stood in front of Duan Zhixuan!
"General Duan, you are so good at adjusting your breath. I will leave these three people to you and Zhijie!"
Qin Qiong looked at Duan Zhixuan and said.
Duan Zhixuan held on and hugged his fists, and then said: "Thank you, General Qin, thank you, General Cheng!"
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said: "Hey! Xiao Duan, don't be brave next time something like this happens! You are a good fighter. If you die at the hands of these idiots, it won't be worth it. ?”
Duan Zhixuan was immediately choked by this shameless old guy.
"Okay, Zhijie! Let's focus on fighting the enemy first!"
Qin Qiong pulled out the sword from his waist, looked at the three grandmasters in front of him, and said.
"Okay! Haha! Today I can finally show off my skills! The three old guys on the other side, come on together~!"
Cheng Yaojin picked up the horse stick stuck on the ground, laughed loudly and said.
"Qin Qiong? Cheng Yaojin~?"
Wang Tieshou, Chu Xiaofeng, and Hua Xiajian all had their pupils shrink, their faces full of horror!
"Hey! Stop talking nonsense! None of you can leave today~!"
Cheng Yaojin stopped talking nonsense, shouted loudly, and rushed forward with a horse in his hand~!
