Until this time, the wooden city defenses originally made of various vehicles were finally pushed away by those ambitious soldiers.
Then they rushed into the stream that was only a dozen steps away from the wooden city defenses, and after wading through the moat that could only reach their knees, they rushed towards the Zhu family's bandits who had begun to scatter.
And the one rushing to the front was none other than Tong Wolong from the Wolong and Phoenix combination, ah no... Tong Zhisheng.
Tong Zhisheng, who often boasted of his unstoppable courage, had no use for martial arts in Bianliang, Tokyo except for drinking, eating meat, boxing, and practicing swords, guns, and sticks with Lu Qian and others.
At this moment, he really looked like a god of murder. He was covered in heavy armor. Even if he was just standing there, he was not much shorter than an ordinary soldier on horseback.
After he waded through the stream, he used the shovel in his hand as a stick and began to sweep across it.
For a moment, there was no living thing that could stand around him, not even the armored man who had just followed Tong Zhisheng not far behind him.
They were all so frightened that their faces turned pale, and they wished their parents would give them two more legs.
Stay away from this vulgar warrior who doesn't care about the life and death of his friendly troops.
Gao Zhang watched silently that wherever Tong Zhisheng went, there would be a blank space, and couldn't help but shake his head subconsciously.
Forget it, as long as he is happy, it starts from the moment General Liu Fa appears with the three thousand cavalry.
The balance of victory has fallen directly at his feet, and there will be no possibility of Zhu Meng making a comeback.
However, in the face of the pursuit of the 3,000 Imperial Cavalry who were recharging their strength, it would be very difficult for these 30,000 remaining soldiers to retreat to Suzhou.
It would be fine if they simply surrendered, but if the remaining soldiers were defeated and scattered in the wild...
Gao Zhang couldn't help but frown. These soldiers here, whether they are officers or soldiers, are all living people, and they are also a very excellent labor force.
What's more, this is a civil war. Is it necessary to kill everyone in order to achieve success? Of course that's not necessary.
#####
Liu Fa held the reins with one hand and the big gun in his hand with the other. He raised his eyes and looked into the distance. At this moment, the Zhu family rebels who were murderous before were now scattered like scattered sand.
And the three thousand cavalry under his command, in accordance with the previous military order, were organized into teams of a hundred people, and began to divide and cut, so that the enemy could not gather into a group and form an effective resistance.
What makes Liu Fa regretful is that the huge carriage is parked alone on the battlefield at this moment.
There was no one left on King Wu's chariot, which was mainly decorated with yellow silk and satin, and not even one of the six strong horses that pulled the chariot was left.
The weapon next to him was still dripping with blood, and Liu Qi, who was panting, couldn't help but shook his head with regret.
"I didn't expect that red thief to escape very quickly. General, let the last general chase him."
Liu Fa raised his head and looked at the generals who were all eager at this moment. Just as he was about to speak, he saw a knight carrying a flag galloping towards him in the distance.
Soon, the leading knight rolled off his saddle and dismounted, saluted Liu Fa respectfully, and handed over a handwritten letter.
When he opened the warrant and glanced at it carefully, he couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
Then he raised his head and looked into the distance. At this moment, there was no figure of Gao Zhang on the high platform.
"General, general?..."
"Liu Qi, lead five hundred brothers and pursue them southward along the main road. However, the pursuit must not exceed ten miles. Anyone who dares to disobey the order will be killed!"
"Ah?" Liu Qi just showed a happy face, and was stunned on the spot by what he said half a day later.
"Hurry up and go." Liu Fa's face darkened and his eyes widened in an imposing manner.
Liu Qi felt a chill in his heart. After saluting Liu Fa respectfully, he ordered his men and horses to follow the main road and began to pursue southward.
Although the generals of the Forbidden Army failed to see the order from the prodigy champion.
But he already understood that the reason why General Liu Fa gave such an order was probably inseparable from the order of the prodigy champion.
But the problem is that Liu Fa, a strong general of the Western Army who has never had a harmonious relationship with his superiors, seems to really think that what the other party says makes sense, which is interesting...
Liu Fa, however, had no intention of explaining to this group of subordinate generals, and urged this group of vulgar warriors to quickly gather their troops and prepare to clean up the battlefield where there was no longer any sound of fighting.
Liu Fa turned the horse's head and the horse began to gallop in the direction of Gao Zhang.
The letter given to him by this child prodigy champion was written very clearly.
That is to tell him that Mr. Liu pursued him too much. There may be a chance to capture Zhu Meng, but there is a high possibility that the other party will escape.
The point is that the remnants of the defeated soldiers who fled in all directions are likely to cause great harm to the people in the villages in the south of the Song Dynasty in the days to come.
Therefore, Gao Zhang felt that all the soldiers and horses under Zhu Meng had been beaten and disabled, and even he, the King of Wu, had fled.
Even if they escape back to Suzhou, they will definitely only dare to gather the remaining defeated soldiers and huddle in the city of Suzhou.
In this way, the imperial court's counter-rebellion army only had to deal with the Zhu rebels in Suzhou City.
Rather than suppressing the Zhu family's rebellion, the people in the entire Jiangnan region would not suffer disaster.
#####
Such a clearly written order, every word of which was written with consideration for the people of Jiangnan.
This shocked Liu Fa, who came from a humble background and relied on his military exploits to achieve his current status.
He really didn't expect that this Xuanfu envoy, who was only eleven or twelve years old, would have such compassion and consideration for the people when he considered the problem.
However, as an official of the Song Dynasty, you are so merciful and soft-hearted, so how can you be so ruthless when you are in power in the future?
Even if you have Taiwei Gao Qiu as your father, and the official family favors you very much, I am afraid that you will not be able to accomplish anything...
Liu Fa drove his horse towards this direction. From a distance, he saw the little figure in purple robe pointing back and forth not far away.
The people around him were bandaging the wounds of the injured patients who were brought over.
As for the dead soldiers, this handsome young man who was only twelve years old personally came forward to tidy up the clothes and appearance of the fallen soldiers.
They also required that the surname and place of origin of every fallen soldier be recorded, and no one was allowed to be omitted.
At this moment, more and more soldiers were watching nearby, but no one dared or wanted to disturb the actions of this world-famous prodigy.
But at this moment, whether it was the state soldiers and local soldiers from the various prefectures, the Forbidden Army accompanying them south, or the Forbidden Army cavalry who came with Liu Fa at starry night for reinforcements.
They all watched this scene silently and movedly.
