The setting sun was like blood, reflecting half of the sky.
The entire battlefield was filled with shouts of men and horses, the clash of swords and guns, the scraping of armor plates, and the shrill wails of the wounded. . .
Behind the Hulu army, Shi Le, who was already covered in blood, was shouting loudly on his horse, while Diao Ying, Guo Heilue, Zhang Bin and others all stretched out their hands to pull the reins of Shi Le's mount and begged for something.
"Let me go, everyone, I will lead the iron horse army to charge again!" Shi Le howled loudly with his eyes red while riding on the horse.
"General, we can't charge anymore. If this continues, we, the son of the Jie family, will have no chance of fighting." Diao Ying held the reins of Shi Le's mount with both hands and said almost choked with tears in his eyes.
After the Qingzhou Army launched a full-scale assault, the middle infantry under Shi Le's command were killed and fled by the highly motivated and well-trained Qingzhou Jia soldiers at the slightest contact. In order to save the defeated army, Shi Le personally led the Iron Horse Army and thousands of barbarian cavalry. Desperately attack the Qingzhou Army's flanks and rear.
However, the well-trained heavy infantry of the Qingzhou Army could not be defeated by Shi Le's "beggar's version" of armored cavalry. Instead, after two charges, the Hulu cavalry suffered heavy losses, with thousands of cavalry dead and wounded.
Except for Shi Le, Diao Ying, Guo Heilue and others were unwilling to continue the attack no matter what. If this continued, even if their direct descendants of the Hu people were wiped out, they would not be able to eat these iron-hard Qingzhou Army soldiers.
"General, there is nothing to be done about it. It is better to retreat quickly, otherwise you will be entangled by the defeated troops and you will not be able to leave!" Guo Heilue said with an anxious look.
At this time, the tens of thousands of defeated Hulu infantry had turned into headless flies scattered for their lives. If they were crowded by the raging defeated troops, even the cavalry would not be able to lift their horses and escape at high speed.
"Snapped!"
There was a crisp sound of the riding whip, and a bloody whip mark immediately appeared on Guo Heilue's face.
"Shut up! My iron horse army is enough to flatten mountains, how could it be defeated!"
Shi Le's yellow-green eyes revealed ferocity and unwillingness.
"General, our Jieshi warriors have not suffered much losses. As long as we still have these cavalry, it doesn't matter how many Jinnu infantry die. There is really no need to fight with the thieves anymore. It is better to turn in first. These infantry are Jinnu anyway." , If you die, you will die, what does it matter!"
At this time, Diao Ying hugged Shi Le's thigh and begged bitterly.
Suddenly, a miserable scream came from not far away.
Shi Le and everyone else looked at them together. Not far away from them, a Qingzhou cavalry riding a bay-red horse was wielding a horse spear and was hacking and killing behind the defeated Hulu infantry.
Suddenly, the Qingzhou cavalry found Shi Le who was surrounded by everyone, and he shouted loudly.
"What a thief! Take your life!"
As he said this, the cavalryman turned a blind eye to the scattered soldiers and gathered up his bow in one go.
"not good!"
"Get out of the way!"
Diao Ying, Guo Heilue and others quickly raised their shields to protect Shi Le, but the Qingzhou cavalry moved too fast.
There was only a "bang" sound from the bowstring, and arrows with eagle feathers and feathers were fired at Shi Le rapidly.
When Shi Le saw this, he was so frightened that he leaned over to avoid it.
"Ding!"
There was a sound of arrows hitting each other, and Shi Le's helmet was lifted up by the arrow and fell to the ground.
"Retreat quickly!"
"Protect the general!"
Diao Ying, Guo Hei Lue, Zhang Bin and other Hu generals and counselors all surrounded Shi Le and fled north in a hurry.
Shi Le, who was almost shot in the head by an unknown cavalryman, no longer had any reluctance at this time. All he could think about was escaping and preserving Hu Qi's strength.
When Shi Le fled north surrounded by his generals, the Hulu cavalry who were still fighting around all gave up the fight and all mounted their horses to follow Shi Le and fled north.
As a result, only the "Hu Xie Army" infantry formed by Shi Le were left on the entire battlefield. Many of these forcibly recruited Jin people had given up before seeing that all their Hu generals had fled. He refused to resist and surrendered to the Qingzhou Army.
However, the Qingzhou Army, which had already been killed, could not tell the difference between those who surrendered and those who were defeated.
Many defeated soldiers were killed by the sword without any explanation.
"Command, from now on, those who surrender will avoid death!"
Liu foresees that many Qingzhou soldiers will not accept surrender. This is not good. Now it is a complete victory. If all these Han people are killed, it will be a great loss. After all, the land of Qingzhou is still waiting for these prisoners. Go farming.
Soon, Qingzhou Army guards holding flags high began shouting on the battlefield.
"The general has an order, those who surrender will be spared death!"
Soon, the entire battlefield was filled with louder and louder shouts.
"Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
"Whoever surrenders will avoid death!"
As the soldiers of the Qingzhou Army stopped killing the surrenderers, more and more Hulu infantry gave up their escape and began to surrender to the Qingzhou Army.
When the Qingzhou cavalry who went to pursue Shi Le came back, there were no standing enemies on the entire battlefield. Except for the dead, there were only pieces of prisoners sitting on the ground.
"General, the thief's Qingqi is very fast, so he didn't achieve any results in the pursuit." Wu Xin, who was in charge of the pursuit, said with a look of regret.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter. In today's battle, Bo Cheng really made a great contribution!" Liu Yu didn't care about the outcome of the pursuit. If the Hulu, who were all light cavalry, wanted to escape, it was not something that the Qingzhou cavalry could catch up with.
The reason why he sent Wu Xin to chase the defeated cavalry was just to make sure that the enemy had completely left. Otherwise, when the Qingzhou Army scattered and gathered the prisoners, it would be tragic if the enemy cavalry killed another carbine and was beaten to a pulp. .
In particular, today Wu Xin led 500 Qingzhou cavalry to repeatedly attack the Hulu light cavalry attacking the flanks, buying precious time for the Qingzhou infantry to form formation. How could Liu Yu blame such a hero.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, but the prisoners on the battlefield were gathering more and more, and even many of the broken soldiers who had fled to the surroundings returned and surrendered to the Qingzhou Army.
The reason for this is entirely because these defeated soldiers have almost no clothing and food for the night. Even if they escape, night is coming soon, and most of these defeated soldiers will die of hunger and cold.
Just when Liu Yu led his guards to inspect the battlefield and comforted the wounded and soldiers, he suddenly discovered Ran Liang's figure.
Ran Liang was squatting on the ground, lowering his head and fiddling with a pocket.
Liu Yu walked over and patted the young man on the shoulder.
"Young overlord of Wei County, what are you doing here?"
When Ran Liang saw it was Liu Yu, he quickly stood up and raised the pocket in his hand to Liu Yu's eyes as if offering a treasure.
"General, look, this is the account I want to get back from the Hulu."
"Now there are seventy-eight in total. Hulu still owes the Ran family of Wei County twenty lives!"
Liu Yu looked down and saw that the dirty pocket was full of bloody human noses.
There are nearly a hundred of them.
What a young general who kills Hu by cutting off his nose and decapitating his head!
