Outside the Han army camp.
Li Tianbao and Liu Tianfang were each on horseback, watching the battle ahead side by side. Li Tianbao showed joy and turned around and said, "Brother. Hangzhou City is the capital of a province and has hoarded a lot of military supplies."
"This battle. Our goal was achieved."
"yes."
Liu Tian was elated.
Li Tianbao raised his hand and shouted: "Attack!!!!"
"kill!!!!"
The navy is also a Han army. The soldiers roared in unison, and then attacked the Chu army camp like a landslide.
The soldiers in the front row were wearing heavy armor and carrying ladders, while the soldiers in the back row were mostly archers.
"Dong dong dong!!!!"
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
The Han soldiers who stayed in the camp beat the cowhide drums and blew the horns. In the dark night, drums and horns buzzed.
This became the last straw that broke the Chu army.
"Run!!!!!!"
"The Han army has launched a general attack. Run quickly."
The chaotic Chu army suddenly went crazy, and the soldiers headed towards the camp gate.
Inside the Chinese army's tent. Zhang Haoyong's cold sweat ran down his face, gathered on his chin, and dripped on his armor.
Lost.
This time the gamble was lost.
"General. The situation is out of control. Please break out." A soldier suddenly broke in from the outside, knelt on the ground, and begged.
Zhang Haoyong shivered, then stood up and shouted: "Withdraw troops immediately."
Defeat was inevitable, and it was unclear what kind of punishment he would receive afterwards. But now that people are still alive, as long as they have a breath, they cannot give up.
Soldiers are his strength. Only by organizing the troops and horses under his command and fighting out the whole army can there be hope.
Zhang Haoyong organized his troops and headed all the way to the camp gate.
In front of him were countless chaotic soldiers. Zhang Haoyong held the horse in his hand and took the lead, shouting sternly: "Get out of the way. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Said. Zhang Haoyong used Ma Cha and attacked and killed dozens of rebel soldiers from behind, leaving the armor covered in blood.
The rebel soldiers were frightened and moved out of the way to let Zhang Haoyong go first.
........
Chu army camp.
Chen Mingzhi's defense zone. Inside the big tent. Chen Mingzhi's face was ashen, and his left hand was holding the handle of the knife at his waist, trembling slightly.
Defeated.
Defeated so easily.
I've said it before. The generals are not subordinate to each other, and the quality of the soldiers is uneven.
Only by holding on to the city can we be stable.
You have to attack, you have to attack.
"Damn Zhang Haoyong, you are ignoring national affairs." Chen Mingzhi became furious, pulled out the steel knife from his waist, and then swung the knife towards the tent, cutting a gap. Others walked out and shouted: "Athletes. The army is defeated. If you evacuate from other directions, you will only be blocked. Fight frontally. Defeat the enemy coming from the front and retreat calmly."
After that, he led his troops to the camp wall and then jumped down. Yan Changshan's troops, facing forward, showed a ferocious look.
"Kill!!!!" He shouted loudly and moved forward on foot, hacking down the Han soldiers.
"Kill!!!" Thousands of people under his command also shouted loudly, followed closely behind, very bravely.
After all, Yan Changshan's troops were just new recruits and they collapsed immediately. The soldiers either fled in all directions or were killed on the spot.
Yan Changshan held a gun eight feet in his hand and sat astride a horse. He wanted to step forward, but in the end he gave a bitter smile and shouted: "Disperse. Don't stop me."
"We encountered a tough opponent today. This is probably Chen Mingzhi."
He watched helplessly as Chen Mingzhi led his soldiers and fled into the night.
"Enter the camp. Those who shout for surrender will not be killed." Yan Changshan took a deep breath, raised his big gun, and shouted.
"Those who surrender will not be killed. Those who surrender will not be killed."
The soldiers gathered again, shouted loudly according to Yan, and advanced towards the Chu army's camp.
As Zhang Haoyong and Chen Mingzhi withdrew from the battlefield, the Chu army's camp was filled with wine bags and rice bags. Not waiting for Li Tianbao to arrive with his troops.
Yan Changshan and Wang Baihui basically controlled the camp.
Except for those who were killed, injured, and escaped, the Chu army was like pigs and sheep. Although they were large in number, they were gathered in the open space by the Han army.
Some people looked numb.
Someone showed fear.
Wang Baihui and Yan Changshan came to the gate of the camp to greet Li Tianbao and Liu Tianfang.
"Greetings to the Admiral."
"General Liu."
The two of them bent down and cupped their fists.
"Hahaha. Get up, get up. Well done." Li Tianbao laughed and asked them to get up. Then he turned to Liu Tianfang and said: "Brother, you can lead the troops back to the camp. Leave this place to me."
"Yes." Liu Tianfang accepted, and led his troops back to the camp.
Li Tianbao, Wang Baihui, Yan Changshan and other thousands of households entered the Chu army camp and sat down at Zhang Haoyong's Chinese army tent.
Li Tianbao immediately sent people to count the number of prisoners, collect grain, grass and luggage.
"You two, you did a great job in this battle. I will recommend you as generals to the king." Li Tianbao promised, patting his chest.
Wang Baihui and Yan Changshan looked at each other. Yan Changshan stood up, bowed and saluted Li Tianbao and said, "Admiral, although we defeated the Chu army, we let Zhang Haoyong and Chen Mingzhi go."
"Especially Chen Mingzhi. He defeated his subordinates head-on and then left in a grand manner."
"Subordinates dare not take credit."
Li Tianbao's eyes flashed. Did Chen Mingzhi and Zhang Haoyong run away? This is troublesome.
"Did you lead the troops to escape?" Li Tianbao asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, I ran away while maintaining the organizational structure." Yan Changshan nodded and said with a wry smile.
"Yes." Li Tianbao's face became serious, but soon his brows relaxed and he said, "No matter what, this is a great achievement."
"You will definitely be indispensable for the reward."
The Han army won a great victory, but there were many things going on.
Take care of wounded soldiers, count prisoners, and piles of military supplies.
Worked until dawn.
Inside the Chinese army's tent.
Li Tianbao sat on the main seat with a golden sword. Although he had not slept all night, he was in high spirits.
Below are thousands of households.
The results are out.
The Han army's own battle losses can almost be said to be negligible. It is not clear how much the Chu army lost.
There were more than 12,500 prisoners, including more than 1,000 wounded soldiers.
Li Tianbao said: "Soldiers need to be quick. Take advantage of the fact that Chen Mingzhi and Zhang Haoyong are defeated. The city of Hangzhou is empty, and Governor Xunze has no time to organize a defense."
"We will advance by land and water and attack Hangzhou City immediately."
"It's just that the soldiers fought hard in the middle of the night last night. It was already very hard. Everyone, please comfort the soldiers and don't let them feel resentful."
"Yes." Thousands of households responded loudly, turned around and walked away.
Everyone is Han Chinese.
Of course the prisoners cannot be killed.
Li Tianbao made proper arrangements for the captives, wounded soldiers, and those who were sick due to the plague in the army. The Han army advanced by land and water, taking advantage of the wind, and headed toward Hangzhou with great momentum.
