At this time, the sky in the east has turned white. The visibility of Yannan Pass, which was originally dark, is getting higher and higher, and the situation a thousand steps away can be seen clearly.
And as the visibility increased, the advantages of the infantry gradually came into play. In the face of the harassment of the rangers, they began to rely on the rifle to fight back with increasing accuracy.
Often, the Snow Wolf Brigade cavalry would rush up, be stopped by the Beixi Qingqi, and receive a round of fire from the rear infantry archers, leaving behind dozens of corpses. Even the most elite cavalry could not withstand such exhaustion. Ning Hu, who was originally anxious to withdraw from the battle, gradually calmed down, but Chen Li's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.
The messengers continued to report casualties.
"General, our army has lost more than 500 people! One guerrilla captain was killed and two goalkeepers were killed..."
Hearing the bad news that came back frequently, without waiting for Chen Li's response, the generals beside him couldn't sit still and began to dissuade him anxiously.
"General, retreat quickly. If you don't retreat, it will be too late."
"The general knows that the general is devastated by the death of Commander-in-Chief Chen Mou, but as the saying goes, it is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years, so why bother fighting Qin Feng for this day and night?"
"Our army can still retreat to the main camp while there are many people and fight while retreating. If we wait until the soldiers are exhausted, they will not be able to distance themselves from the pursuers, and they will be chased and cannibalized, and the consequences will be disastrous."
Chen Li's face was livid, and he secretly resented that God was not on his side. If he had just one more hour, he would have defeated Ning Hu. Unfortunately, it was already dawn.
After paying such a heavy loss and finally retreating in despair, not to mention that Chen Mou could not rest in peace in heaven, even Chen Li could not explain to Shangfeng.
Just when Chen Li was in a dilemma, good news suddenly came from behind.
"General, Feng Chen has arrived with reinforcements."
Hearing this, Chen Li was overjoyed and immediately ignored the general's suggestion to retreat. He stared at the battlefield not far away and shouted: "The reinforcements have arrived. Let's defeat the enemy in one go!"
With the addition of Feng Chen's troops, the battlefield once again turned into a one-sided situation. Facing an extremely elite enemy force that was several times his own, Ning Hu simply could not hold on.
As everyone knows, at this time, Xu Mo also led the reinforcements to Yannan Pass, but Xu Mo did not rush to enter the battlefield. Instead, he roughly estimated the situation on the battlefield based on the news sent back by the scouts and messengers. , directly led the reinforcements and made a roundabout movement to the west of the battlefield.
Xu Mo ordered the soldiers not to make any noise and just lurked quietly in a low-lying area. It was not until he was sure that Feng Chen's troops had entered the battlefield that he led the entire army to cut off the enemy's retreat and outflank them from the rear.
On the other side, Qin Feng also got the news and knew that Xu Mo had cut off the enemy's retreat. Qin Feng no longer hesitated and immediately ordered: "All soldiers listen to the order and immediately go into battle to attack the enemy head-on!"
The cavalry who had previously withdrawn to rest had fully recovered their physical strength and immediately charged towards the battlefield. On the frontal battlefield, Chen Li and Feng Chen's armies were tightly entangled by Ning Hu's soldiers, while Qin Feng and Xu Mo led their troops respectively to attack from the front and rear.
Although the forces invested by both sides were almost equal, Chen Li's army, faced with being attacked from both sides, quickly lost all of its advantage.
Not to mention the ordinary soldiers brought by Feng Chen, even the elite Snow Wolf Brigade began to lose strength in the face of this desperate situation.
As the death rate continued to rise, Chen Li couldn't help but start to waver, but it was too late to retreat now, so he could only bite the bullet and continue to fight.
When the morning light spread across the land and the night in Saibei ended completely, the battle came to an end.
There are less than 2,000 soldiers under Chen Li and Feng Chen's command, while there are more than 4,000 soldiers under Qin Feng's command. In addition to the widening gap in numbers between the two sides, what made Chen Li most desperate was that after fighting fiercely all night, the Snow Wolf Brigade was already exhausted and its combat effectiveness was greatly reduced.
Not to mention people, even the war horses couldn't hold on any longer. Some of the war horses kept falling to the ground, refusing to get up.
As the collapse of the Snow Wolf Brigade gradually began to spread, the remaining Feng Chen troops were unable to resist at all. The outcome of this battle was already determined.
Qin Feng was exhausted after a night of fierce fighting, but whenever he saw that the enemy's will to resist was getting weaker and weaker, Qin Feng couldn't help but get excited.
Keep shouting: "At one go, defeat the enemy! When the battle is over, all soldiers will be given an old hen each and go back to replenish their strength!"
"The pensions received by fallen soldiers will be increased by another 10% from the original standards!"
Although Qin Feng knew very well that in this battle, his consumption would be extremely huge, but the Snow Wolf Brigade, which Beidi was proud of, would be annihilated!
This feat not only cleared one of the biggest obstacles for Jing Qianying to return to the clan, it was also of immeasurable value to the entire Daliang.
Just when Qin Feng was about to win the battle, suddenly, there were bursts of exclamations in his ears.
"Protect the Marquis!"
"Hurry and protect the Marquis and stop the enemy!"
What?
Qin Feng frowned and quickly followed the sound. He was surprised to find that Chen Li actually led more than 20 people to launch a suicidal charge against Qin Feng.
Chen Li's eyes were bloodshot, angry and resentful. He never dreamed that not only did he not avenge Brother Chen Mou, but he and the entire Snow Wolf Brigade were involved.
"Damn Qin Feng, take your life!"
Chen Li's veins popped out, he raised his horse high and rushed towards Qin Feng without fear of death. In his opinion, as long as he killed Qin Feng, this battle would not be a big loss.
Since most of Qin Feng's soldiers had already entered the battle, and there were only a dozen soldiers left, and they were in a stationary state, they were unable to resist Chen Li, who was rushing towards him at high speed.
For a time, the scene was filled with exclamations.
Just when Chen Li was about to succeed, he saw a phantom flying past, and it turned out to be Jing Qianying!
Jing Qianying clicked her toes and faced the oncoming Chen Li head-on.
Chen Li's eyes were full of contempt. In his opinion, the woman in front of him actually dared to stop him. She was simply trying to hit her with an egg. She didn't even aim at Jing Qianying. He just rode his horse, preparing to hit her to death.
But when the war horse was only a dozen steps away from Jing Qianying, Chen Li felt his eyes blurred as Jing Qianying dodged from the side at an incredible angle.
The war horse passed by Jing Qianying. At the same time, the sword in Jing Qianying's hand had also been slashed out, but the target was not Chen Li, but the war horse!
The sharp sword cut open the horse's belly directly from the side, and the blood mixed with the internal organs was splashed directly on the ground.
Along with the scream, the war horse fell heavily. Due to the inertia, the horse and the man rolled on the ground for seven or eight feet. Chen Li was seriously injured after the fall and continued to vomit blood.
