He Yuanqing rushed into the battle group on horseback, sweeping away thousands of troops with two hammers in his hands. Tian Zaibiao's expression changed, he blocked the front with his spear, and Endeavor swung out with all his strength.
"Brother Ying Xiang, let's work together to take down this kid!"
When He Yuanqing saw that the move he had tried with all his strength was countered by Tian Zaibiao's simple block, his expression changed and he hurriedly called Yue Yun to come forward to help.
"If you bully the few with more, even if you win, it will still be a win without force!"
When Yue Yun heard this, his expression suddenly turned pale, and he hesitated in place for a long time.
"A battle on the battlefield is a life-and-death fight. How can there be any fairness?"
At this moment, Yue Fei suddenly rushed up from behind on his horse, glared at Yue Yun sharply, then rushed past Yue Yun, and rode straight towards Tian Zaibiao.
Seeing Yue Fei's sharp eyes, Yue Yun couldn't help but shudder. Without any hesitation, he immediately joined the battle group with his horse and hammer.
Yue Fei, Yue Yun, and He Yuanqing all besieged Tian Zaibiao. No matter how hard Tian Zaibiao tried his best, he could not gain any advantage. However, after more than 20 rounds, he was already exhausted and out of breath. He had no choice but to sell out and run away.
"Tian Zaibiao has been defeated, brothers, kill him!"
The army has always respected military force. Seeing the defeat of Tian Zaibiao, the most powerful general of the Tang army, the Sui army's morale was as high as a rainbow. Under the leadership of generals such as Yue Fei, Yue Yun, He Yuanqing, Xu Qing and others, they stepped forward bravely and killed the Tang army's officers and soldiers, causing heavy losses. Corpses littered the fields. Although the officers and soldiers of the Tang army fought hard, they were still shaking the tree, but within a moment they were disrupted and turned into white bones under the iron hoof of the Sui army.
"Go straight to the handsome flag and capture Li Xiaogong alive!"
Yue Fei led the crowd to kill through the obstruction of Xie Yingdeng's troops. He pointed the Liquan gun forward in his hand, and more than ten thousand fine cavalry suddenly seemed to have found their direction. They roared in unison, the sound was like thunder, and they galloped away like a stormy sea.
"Hold on, hold on, hold on to me!"
Li Xiaogong, who was at the flag of the commander of the Tang Army, waved his sword vigorously and roared at the top of his lungs. He could clearly see from behind that the five thousand Tang troops led by Xie Yingdeng were fighting to the death, but even so, they still could not withstand the impact of the Sui army's cavalry.
"Where is Li Shiji? What is he doing? Order him to quickly lead the rear army to help!"
Li Xiaogong suddenly turned around and shouted at the generals behind him.
A deputy general stepped forward cautiously, raised his hands and said: "Your Highness, General Li said that our army's food, grass and baggage are all in the rear. Although the Sui army in front is attacking fiercely, we must prevent them from deploying a surprise force while our army is at full strength. Burn our army's baggage during the battle."
"Confused, Li Shiji actually made me confused at this time!"
Li Xiaogong was furious when he heard this and said: "Bashu is a kingdom of heaven, and the food and grass supplies stored in Chengdu are inexhaustible. As long as we can defeat this army and return to Chengdu, even if the Sui army burns all our What’s the point of having food, grass and baggage?”
The deputy general still cautiously raised his hand and said: "Your Highness, General Li has been stationed in the Kuimen area since he came to Bashu. He has never been to Chengdu. He may not know the stock of supplies in Chengdu."
Li Xiaogong was stunned when he heard this, and then he remembered that Li Shiji came from Guanzhong under orders, and he had never told him about the situation in Chengdu. However, he had no time to blame himself and hurriedly ordered the deputy general: "You Immediately go to the rear army and send an order to Li Shiji, ordering him to abandon all baggage and quickly lead the army to support me!"
"As you command!"
The lieutenant general also knew the seriousness of the situation. After accepting the order with clasped fists, he hurriedly got on his horse and rushed to the rear army to find Li Shiji. He explained the situation and Li Xiaogong's order to Li Shiji.
After hearing this, Li Shiji couldn't help but slap his forehead several times. He was also afraid of poverty. When he followed Zhai Rang to gather in Wagang Village in the early years, what worried them most was the problem of food. This made him unknowingly In my sleep, I have developed the habit of putting food and grass above all else.
After a pause, he shook his head helplessly and said: "If I had known this, why would I have to guard these things? Send the order quickly, and the whole army will immediately follow me to support Prince Zhao (Li Xiaogong)."
"Brothers, something bad is going to happen. The Sui army is coming. Run for your life!"
At this moment, several defeated Tang troops suddenly rushed up from behind in a panic, shouting and shouting from time to time. Li Shiji was stunned for a moment and hurriedly stopped those people: "Where are you? Why are you in such a mess?"
When the Tang soldiers saw Li Shiji, they hurriedly turned over and dismounted. They paid homage to Li Shiji and said, "General, we are the subordinates of General Yun Tianbiao. Not long after you left last night, the Sui army attacked the city in large numbers. Lieutenant General Tian Hu was greedy for life and afraid of death." The city gates were opened and the Sui troops were allowed to enter the city. General Yun died in the battle and Kui Gate was lost!"
"What?"
Li Shiji was shocked when he heard this, and his eyes were about to pop out of his head: "You said that Kuimen has been lost and Yun Tianbiao died in the battle. So where are Li Jing's troops now?"
"There are tens of thousands of cavalry just behind us. Most of our brothers who escaped from the city were caught up by the Sui army and were either killed or captured. Only a few of us were lucky enough to grab a few horses. This Just escaped."
Before he finished speaking, shouts of killing suddenly arose from the east. Countless cavalry stepped on them, causing the dust to fly. They were like tigers descending from the mountain and came to cover up the Tang army. The three fierce generals Su Dingfang, Jiang Song and Lu Junyi were all in the lead, flying with their hips. The horse rushed over like lightning.
"Listen, officers and men of the Tang Army, Kuimen has been captured by our army. Those who surrender will not be killed!"
When Li Shiji heard this, his face turned pale, his arms trembled slightly, his eyes darkened and he almost fell off his horse. The clan brother Xu Ning on the side also changed his face drastically, and asked Li Shiji with a trembling voice: "Brother, we... what should we do now?"
Li Shiji closed his eyes in pain, frowned, and pondered for a long time before opening his eyes again, took a deep breath, and said to Xu Ning word by word as if he had made up a lot of determination. : "Immediately pass on the order. The entire army will immediately abandon their baggage and immediately break out to the north."
Xu Ning was shocked when he heard this and said in a voice: "Brother, by leaving, we are abandoning His Highness the County Prince. He will definitely die by then!"
Li Shiji said in a gloomy voice: "At this point, I have no other choice. The Sui armies of Li Jing, Yue Fei and Fei are far superior to our army, and they are attacking from both sides. Our army will undoubtedly lose this battle. If we stay here, we We can’t help Li Xiaogong, so it’s better to withdraw first and save some energy for when we get involved again in the future.”
After Li Shiji finished speaking, he no longer stopped. He suddenly urged his war horse and led his more than 10,000 men to the north.
