Yang Yizhi's figure gradually moved away until he disappeared into the chaos.
Liu Mo breathed a long sigh of relief, then stooped dizzily to pick up the long sword "Oath". With a slight movement of his hand, bursts of severe pain shot from his elbow straight to his brain.
Damn, Gao Qi's power is really terrifying. Just one sword hurt like this!
The war seemed to have moved to another place. Except for a large number of corpses, there were no living people left at his location.
He saw that the Daxia Infantry Corps had arrived outside the city. A large number of spearmen surrounded the Zhou Dynasty army. The two armies were fighting to the death on the gentle slope. The Daxia spear array faced the wall formed by the Zhou Dynasty's iron shields.
As he watched, he saw another rain of arrows falling from the air, and the soldiers behind the shield wall fell to the ground one after another under the ruthless rain of arrows.
Suddenly there were footsteps behind him, and he turned around quickly, but due to the severe pain in his elbow, he could no longer raise his sword to fight. Fortunately, it was Gong Xiaorou who came. She stopped and looked at him with concern.
"Husband, are you okay?"
"That's natural!" Liu Mo said with a smile, "It's you, look at your helmet!"
Gong Xiaorou reached out and touched it and found that the tassel on the helmet had been cut off. Fortunately, no one was injured!
At this moment, the horn sounded again, and Daxia's reinforcements had rushed outside the city and rushed towards the enemy.
Liu Mo saw a familiar figure galloping past, surrounded by thousands of Daxia cavalry, that was Lu Sheng.
The sun shines on the tip of the spear, and the nine-clawed golden dragon flag of the Great Xia Dynasty flies overhead. The remaining troops of the Zhou Dynasty were completely shattered under the impact, like glass being beaten by a hammer.
Liu Mo's elbow was swollen and painful, so he did not participate in the final massacre, and instead went with Gong Xiaorou to look for the others.
Zhao Da was sitting in the corner to rest. When he saw Liu Mo, he immediately got up and followed him.
After a preliminary count, only half of Zhu Min's 300 light cavalry survived. Rongcheng officials and other recruited soldiers were even more seriously injured. Only one thousand of the three thousand people survived.
He asked the living to take care of the dead, sent Zhao Da to take care of the wounded, and then went with Zhu Min to find the reinforcements commander.
Arriving at the temporary command room near the city gate, a man with a strong build, neat beard, round shoulders and thick waist, about forty-five years old, sat in the center. He was drinking from a cup and asked his men to remove his armor.
"A beautiful city defense battle!" The man raised his head and looked at Liu Mo and Zhu Min, "General Zhu, was it your idea or this Master Liu's?"
This person is none other than Bai Chengzong, the right-hand minister of the third-grade military department of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, who had an acquaintance with Liu Mo in Jizhou.
"Haha, it's all my brother Liu Xian's idea!" Zhu Min said loudly.
"Oh?" Bai Chengzong became interested, "What a surprise to this general!"
"I've seen General Bai!" Liu Mo bowed and saluted. "General Zhu deserves the award, it's not my fault alone!"
"That's right, that's right. I'm not greedy for merit. You two, sit down." Bai Chengzong looked at Liu Mo with admiration. "Someone, go find Gao Qi's fellow!"
Gao Qi?
Liu Mo smiled awkwardly when he heard the name, "General Bai, Gao Qi... is dead!"
"Oh? Is this butcher dead?" Bai Chengzong looked incredulous, "How did he die?"
"Yes, he died at the hands of the enemy's commander!" Liu Mo told him.
"Is it the 'Ink Venomous Snake'?" Bai Chengzong exclaimed.
Ink viper? Liu Mo was no less surprised than Bai Chengzong.
"Master Liu, you don't know yet, right?" Bai Chengzong smiled, "The enemy's commander this time is named Xiao Shen. He is the grandson of the Emperor of Zhou Dynasty, the eldest son of Prince Huai, and has the hereditary title of prince.
This man has superb martial arts skills and is good at strategy. Many people in my country have suffered losses from him. Even the eldest prince and this general have been defeated by him many times. Since he died at the hands of this person, it would be easy for the eldest prince to explain! "
Good guy, he is indeed the prince and grandson of the Zhou Dynasty! A brave and resourceful man! Secondly, Liu Mo also heard that Gao Qi was forced on Bai Chengzong by the eldest prince.
Do you even need to ask about the purpose? Take the opportunity to kill Liu Mo!
"General Bai, is that Xiao Shen?" Zhu Min said in surprise, "Haha, I was able to fight with him without dying, no shame, no shame!"
Damn it, Liu Mo's scalp went numb when he heard those words!
Does this mean that all the other Daxia generals who have fought against him are gone?
"So, Brother Liu Xian, you are truly a general that I rarely encounter in a hundred years in Great Xia!" Zhu Min praised again, "If it hadn't been for this guy last time, the Zhou Dynasty would have perished long ago!"
Next, Zhu Min became more and more enthusiastic as he talked, and Yang Yizhi (Xiao Shen) became more and more mythical as he listened. He was simply the mainstay of the Zhou Dynasty, the military god who turned the tide!
The more Liu Mo listened, the more chills ran down his spine. What kind of opponent had I provoked?
After taking a deep breath and calming down, Liu Mo analyzed it. The biggest reason why this person was victorious in all battles with Daxia was because of his knowledge of intelligence.
Sun Tzu's Art of War on Earth says: Know yourself and your enemy and you will be victorious in any battle.
In this battle of Rongcheng, Liu Mo also obtained Yang Yizhi's information by chance, and then used himself as bait to defeat him after a narrow escape.
As a prince of the Zhou Dynasty, Yang Yizhi was willing to bear the humiliation and sneak into Daxia to spy on the news. He was so damn capable!
"Master Liu, don't put yourself in such danger next time!" Bai Chengzong said.
Liu Mo also knew that if Bai Chengzong came earlier, it would be a war of attrition, and it was not certain who would win. If you come a little late, you will be gone!
"If you don't do this, you won't be able to lure him in!" he replied.
Suddenly, Liu Mo felt a sharp pain in his elbow, so he took off his gauntlet and let it fall to the ground.
"Yes, this person is careful with his troops," Bai Chengzong admitted, "but victory is victory. You seem to be injured."
Liu Mo's right arm was stained with blood. "Thank you for your concern. I wonder if there is any news about Jiang Linfu?"
He thought of Yang Yizhi's words before leaving, "I'll wait for you at Jiang Lin Mansion!"
Before Bai Chengzong could answer, he heard an urgent shout: "General Bai!" and he turned his head. A Daxia cavalryman dismounted and Bai Chengzong stood up to greet him. The horse was foaming at the mouth and bleeding from the mouth.
He was tall and thin, wearing a gaiter and shiny armor. This person is none other than Lu Sheng.
I saw Lu Sheng kneeling down on one knee in front of Bai Chengzong: "General Bai, our army has wiped out 8,474 enemy people and captured two enemy garrison members (main regiment level) and four generals. There are five flags on each side, and the remaining soldiers are more than 700.
As for the enemy commander, he may have fled. "
Because Bai Chengzong's reinforcements were a sneak attack, they only lost a few hundred people. Including the Rongcheng defenders, the total number was less than 3,000.
This achievement can be said to be quite beautiful!
"Very good!" Bai Chengzong said, "Where is Jiang Linfu? Is there any news!"
Lu Sheng hesitated for a moment: "General, it is reported that the enemy has captured Jianglin Mansion. The troops led by the eldest prince and the sixth prince were blocked by the enemy to the north of Jianghun River and cannot go any further!"
Has been captured! Liu Mo frowned when he heard this. At this moment, he couldn't tell whether the pain in his hand was worse or the pain in his heart!
"He Ruda, Brother He, please don't let anything happen to you!"
