After Li Shenfu died in the battle, the generals of the Wu army collapsed completely. A large number of soldiers turned around and fled crying. The riot and collapse quickly spread to the entire army.
Fei Ju and Lu Zhongheng, who led their troops to separate the camp passes, also galloped on and defeated those generals who wanted to resist.
The entire Wu Army camp has become an irreversible situation.
Yang Xingmi, who was in the rear, also received news that two generals, Zhou Ben and Li Shenfu, had died in battle.
Yang Xingmi's head turned black, and his burly figure shook suddenly.
Yuan Xi's face looked extremely ugly, but he still managed to retain a trace of calmness and quickly stepped forward to support Yang Xingmi.
"How is it possible? How could the talisman die in battle? Impossible!"
Yang Xingmi could not accept the reality.
According to common sense, historical princes like Yang Xingmi should have an indomitable will, and a temporary defeat will not affect their minds.
Han Gao's 560,000-strong army was defeated in the Battle of Pengcheng, but he could still run back and continue to confront Xiang Yu as his enemy.
But Yang Xingmi did not have as good a mentality as Liu Bang.
Moreover, when Liu Bang was defeated in Pengcheng, his powerful generals did not lose much. However, Yang Xingmi died in this battle with his two most capable generals.
Li Shenfu was able to arrange his troops and lead his troops on an expedition, while Zhou Benneng was able to charge into the formation and kill powerful enemies.
The two generals were like his minions.
At this time, the claws were broken, how could Yang Xingmi not be heartbroken?
Yuan Xi began to ask the guards who came to report, and also learned the name of the Huai Army general. When Yang Kan signed up just now, his voice vibrated for miles, and many people heard it.
Even the personal guards who rushed towards the Chinese army before Li Shenfu died in the battle could hear it.
"Yang Kan of the Huai Army...could he be the ten-thousand-enemy man under Emperor Wu of Liang, Xiao Yan?"
Yuan Xi's face turned pale instantly.
After hearing the name Yang Kan, he suddenly thought of the origin of the other party. The other party was an enemy recorded in history books. How could he suddenly join Wang Jing?
"It's him. He can defeat Zhou Ben and Li Shenfu so quickly. He must be the general I know!"
Yuan Xi kept thinking and quickly made a judgment.
However, how could Wang Jing be so virtuous and capable of defeating such an enemy who would leave his name in history?
"Your Majesty, the front army has been completely defeated, and the surrounding camps have collapsed. Please, Your Majesty and the military advisors, make a quick decision!"
A general acting as a personal guard came over in a hurry and shouted urgently.
The other party's words immediately awakened Yuan Xi.
He quickly shouted: "Lord, the situation is critical now, we must leave as soon as possible!"
Yang Xingmi was heartbroken. Li Shenfu and Zhou Ben were his important support in his fight for world hegemony, and the 100,000 troops heading north this time were the assets he had accumulated through continuous training.
Having killed two generals was already a stab in his body.
If he gives up the 100,000 troops now, Yang Xingmi will be stabbed several times and severely injured.
"Lord! All those who have become great since ancient times have gone through hardships. We still have 30,000 naval troops in Qinghe, and General Wang still has 50,000 soldiers and horses... As long as the lord escapes and goes back, defeats the Sui army and expands to Yangzhou, he can also achieve great things! "
Yuan Xi comforted and reminded.
Hearing this, Yang Xingmi reluctantly cheered up. "Call the guards, let's leave now!"
When Yuan Xi and several generals around him heard this, they immediately summoned their elite men, and then hurried southward with Yang Xingmi.
Wu Jun had collapsed at this time.
A large number of soldiers fled randomly. Yang Kan, Fei Ju, and Lu Zhongheng were able to lead the cavalry to defeat the 100,000 army, but they could only defeat it and could not completely annihilate it.
Yang Kan asked Fei and Lu to take in the prisoners as much as possible, while he led the cavalry back and forth across the battlefield, suppressing the dissenters on the one hand, and looking for traces of Yang Xingmi on the other.
Killing two generals and defeating an army of 100,000 men was certainly a great achievement.
Gu Jiao's contribution to capturing and killing Yang Xingmi was greater than defeating this 100,000-strong army!
But there were too many fleeing soldiers.
Yang Kan kept searching, but when he saw that the horse's physical strength was severely exhausted, he gave up the search.
"It's a pity that we didn't do our best!"
He shook his head, turned around and began to lead people to suppress the prisoners, and sent someone to immediately deliver the news to Bai Ze.
…
The river is surging, and the canal is extremely wide, which is no different from the Huaihe River. The Huaihe River rolls from west to east, the water waves roll, and the power of the river flow is not weak.
As for the north-south direction of the canal, many river sections in the source world are artificially dug, and the river surface is gentle.
The canals in mainland China also retain this characteristic.
Hundreds of warships of various sizes were speeding towards the south.
Li Jun stood on the deck of a building ship. He turned his head and looked behind him. He seemed to be able to see the camp burning and the army crumbling on the battlefield.
When Yang Kan launched an attack.
The navy he led has already begun to take action. If Yang Kan can win a big victory, he will lead the navy to raid Qinghe Water Village, which can cut off Yang Xingmi's retreat and defeat the Jianghuai overlord in one battle.
If Yang Kan failed, he would also go south to attack Qinghe and force Yang Xingmi to retreat.
"Yang Kan, you are really amazing!"
At this time, Li Jun had received news from the people who stayed behind to check the situation.
Wu's 100,000-strong army, as well as a large amount of grain, grass, baggage, weapons and equipment, as well as the civilian men transporting grain, were either defeated or incorporated by Yang Kan.
In this battle, Yang Kan took the lead.
In terms of rewards based on merit, Yang Kan will definitely become a general, and it will be a matter of course for him to become a miscellaneous general in the future.
Li Jun felt a little envious when he thought about this.
But then he thought about it, as long as he could attack Qinghe Water Village this time, and even capture the Wu army's camp on the north bank of the Huaihe River, he would have done a lot of credit.
The warship followed the wind and was very fast.
Boom!
Soon, the roar of collision and bursts of fighting were heard from the warships in front.
Li Jun looked forward.
There were more than a dozen smaller warships on the water in the distance. They were the patrol boats of Wu Jun Navy on the canal. At this time, the soldiers on these patrol boats saw hundreds of warships going down the river.
Everyone was frightened.
They tried to escape desperately, but they were quickly caught up by the Huai Army Navy's sterns, and they quickly surrounded and killed them.
The warships of the Huai Army were built under the personal supervision of Zhao Jianguo, the head of the construction department at the time.
Both in terms of sturdiness and speed, it is faster than ordinary warships. In this kind of water pursuit, fast speed means victory.
"Qinghe Water Village!"
After taking care of the patrol boat, the Huai Army Navy quickly approached Qinghe.
The Qinghe River is the junction of the canal and the Huaihe River. Wu Jun's water stronghold is located on the north side of the intersection of the two rivers. Not far from the water stronghold, there is the Wu Jun camp with unearthed walls.
Many soldiers were patrolling the shore, and merchant ships of various sizes were plying back and forth on the Huaihe River.
This is a key place for Yang Xingmi to control the Huaihe River and Canal.
Li Jun can see it.
After hundreds of their own warships approached, there was a sudden commotion on the distant shore.
