At this moment, how could Li Yue let Yao Xiang go?
The army refused to let go and pursued them southward along the Yishui River.
Li Yue ordered each battalion to pursue and kill Yao Xiang, Shi Kun and Xun Xian.
The soldiers faithfully carried out Li Yue's orders and followed closely behind the defeated army.
Along the way, Jin troops kept coming to resist. The Black Cloud Army was already in a state of excitement and was defeated in one blow.
The pursuit lasted for several days from Tan County to Xiapi, killing nearly 10,000 people and taking 60,000 to 70,000 Qiang and Jin people captive.
Even if Yao Xiang could escape, he would never recover.
The Jin army and Yao Xiang's army were frightened. Xun Xian deployed a small number of troops in Xiapi, but he retreated to Huaiyin.
Yao Xiang had been defeated and crippled. Seeing that the Black Cloud Army was as powerful as a rainbow, he abandoned the city and followed Xun Xian southward to Huaiyin.
Li Yuexian ignored Xiapi and bit Yao Xiang and Xun Xian, but he happened to find Shi Kun's trace. In this battle, Yao Xiang was crippled and Xun Xian was frightened, but Shi Kun was missing.
Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet.
The only person who can pose a threat to the Black Cloud Army is Shi Kun. If they are not eliminated, the Black Cloud Army will be threatened at any time.
When the Heiyun Army saw the Jie people on the opposite side, they became murderous.
Continuous victories pushed their morale to the top. Although they were tired, their spirits were extremely high.
Li Yue was a little worried at first. After all, Shi Kun also had 20,000 to 30,000 elite Jie people under his command.
But he didn't expect that Shi Kun would turn around and run away as soon as he saw the Heiyun Army.
In the Tanxian battle, not only the Southern Army, the Yi Cong Army, and the Jin Army were shocked, but also Shi Kun.
Xun Xian and Yao Xiang had both run away, so how could he stay behind and fight to the death?
Xu Cheng led the Xiaoqi battalion to take the lead and charge towards the enemy.
The Jie army was immediately divided into two parts, and Liang Xiao led the forward battalion to catch up.
At that time, the Jie people controlled the world under Shi Le's command. With the help of God, victory after victory established Jie Zhao.
However, after Shihu's defeat in the attack on Jicheng and Ma Qiu's constant squandering of national power like a prodigal son, Liang Du rebelled and the Jie people killed each other, the national morale had already fallen to the bottom.
Now that he has become a lost dog, how can he still have the courage to fight against the Black Cloud Army who is at its peak?
Xu Cheng and Liang Xiao rushed over, and Gao Yun also led Hei Yunlang to catch up. The three men and horses slaughtered the Jie people like slaughtering pigs and sheep, and defeated the Jie people.
Even if some Jie people rose up to resist, the counterattack of hundreds of people would not cause any splash, let alone Xu Cheng, Liang Xiao, and Gao Yun's opponent. It would only arouse the Heiyun Army's greater ferocity.
Half an hour later, corpses were everywhere in the wilderness, corpses were floating in the Surabaya River, and the crimson river flowed downstream to Huaiyin...
If the previous battle with Yao Xiang was considered a hard battle, then the present was just a brutal massacre.
Meng Kai led his cavalry to come to support, but only glanced at him from afar, and then retreated.
Let the Jie people be slaughtered by the Black Cloud Army...
"Did you catch Shi Kun?" Li Yue felt depressed after going south for more than 20 small and large battles but not even a single big fish.
Zhang Shengye said: "Shi Kun led more than a thousand cavalry and went south to pursue Yao Xiang and Xun Xian."
"Kill all the thieves, don't let anyone go!"
"Take the order!" The ordering soldier rushed away with the order flag.
The Black Cloud Army was even more brutal against the Jie people. The hatred between the country and the family for two or three generations did not allow them to show mercy.
Shi Kun's 20,000 to 30,000 men were destroyed in one battle.
From Surabaya to the south, the corpses of dead Jie people were everywhere along the way, and their heads were cut off by the soldiers of Heiyun.
"Capital...Commander, Yao Xiang and Xun Xian are thirty miles ahead!" The scouts were panting heavily, but they did not relax at all.
The hearty victory made everyone forget their physical fatigue.
"Chase!" Li Yue himself was tired, but his body was extremely excited.
The harder this battle goes, the more honest Jiangdong will be in the future.
The soldiers pursued them non-stop, and could already see the frightened faces of the Qiang people on the opposite side, trampling on each other, and many people were pushed into the Surabaya River.
The Black Cloud Army laughed ferociously from behind.
Just as they were about to catch up, hundreds of sails suddenly appeared on the Sishui River, going upstream from the southeast and docking on the north bank. The ships were lined up in a row, and dense rain of arrows covered the sky and were thrown into the black clouds. military.
More than a hundred people were shot on the spot, and hundreds more were injured. They quickly left the river bank.
The Jiangdong navy came up.
Li Yue was shocked. They were here, and the chase could no longer continue.
Looking at the troops of Yao Xiang and Shi Kun heading south in panic, I felt a pity in my heart.
"No, it's not appropriate to pursue any more. Quickly, take down Pi, Pengcheng, and Shouchun!" Chang Wei trudged for a long distance and became thinner and thinner. He was panting even when he spoke.
Li Yue immediately ordered the collected Jiehu heads to be piled on the north bank of Surabaya, with more than thirty large and small seats, facing the east of the Yangtze River.
The army rested for a while, prepared a deer cart for Chang Wei, and then led the army back to Xiapi.
When Chu Su went on the Northern Expedition, Li Nong only defeated two to three thousand men, so Chu Su abandoned Pengcheng, Xiapi, Shouchun, Hefei and other important towns and fled back to Jiangdong in panic.
Now Li Yue's several big wins far surpass Li Nong.
Chased and killed along the way, at least 40,000 Qiang Jie and Zhu Hu died under the black cloud saber.
The evil spirit permeated the Huaihe River and shook the east of the Yangtze River.
Seeing the Heiyun Army leaving and returning, the two thousand defenders in Xiapi had already dispersed.
Li Yue entered the city and ordered Liang Xiao to cross the Huaihe River to capture Shouchun, and Xu Cheng to capture Pengcheng.
With these two cities captured, Li Yue's strategic vision was basically completed.
After waiting for two days, the news from the north came back. During this period, Ran Min won several more battles, winning eight battles and eight victories.
Chang Wei frowned, "Since there are eight battles and eight victories, why are you still in Wei Chang?"
The Black Cloud Army pursued them for hundreds of miles, and in three battles and three victories, they took away a large amount of land and population.
Ran Min suppressed Murong Ke and won eight games in a row, still spinning around in Zhongshan County...
Li Yue smelled a hint of danger, "Maybe the North will soon decide the winner!"
Either Murong Ke didn't take action, or if he did, he would definitely kill Ran Min and would not give him the chance to escape back to Yecheng like Xiang Guo did.
Chang Wei did not beat around the bush, "The Lord of Wei is about to be defeated."
I only heard about Ran Min's eight battles, but not the news about Murong Ke's defeat. This was definitely not a good sign.
Soon, a secret message from Dong Run came, saying that the situation was not optimistic. The army was short of food and had no way to survive, so it killed horses for food.
Yecheng's secret report was even more direct, allowing Li Yue to quickly go north.
"The affairs between the Huaihe River and Huaihe River must be completed as soon as possible. The situation in the north will change drastically." Li Yue ignored his fatigue and ordered his soldiers to prepare for the march.
The world's population is concentrated in Hebei and Jiangdong.
Murong took over Hebei and captured Yecheng, so Li Yue was no longer qualified to compete with Murong in Hebei.
Starting from Murong She's return, he has been operating in Liaodong for more than a hundred years and has accumulated a lot of experience.
Taking Hebei is even more powerful.
How many years has Yanzhou been established? The newly acquired territory has not yet been digested.
Li Yue could only pray in his heart that Ran Min would persist for two more months, but he also knew that it was unlikely.
What kind of person is Murong Ke? Didn't you endure it for so long just to catch Ran Min in one fell swoop?
The army was ready to go, and news of success came from the west. Xu Cheng's troops captured Pengcheng without a bloody blow.
But something went wrong with Liang Xiao, and he encountered stubborn resistance from the Jin army in Shouchun.
Yuan Zhen, the governor of Yuzhou in Jin Dynasty, drove his troops north from Hefei and settled in Shouchun in advance. Meng Kai's cavalry attacked and harassed outside. Although the forward and left battalions led by Liang Xiao were brave, they were already tired after fighting for so long.
But Yuan Zhenfei is comparable to Xie Shang and Yin Hao.
It was he who led his army north to attack Hefei and capture Ran Wei's Nanman Colonel Santan alive.
Li Yue had two choices before him: go south and besiege Shouchun. After spending a month or two, Li Yue was absolutely sure to win.
But Hebei is already imminent and does not have so much time.
"Our army is exhausted, so it's okay not to take Shouchun for the time being." Chang Wei said.
"Let Liang Xiao return to defend Xiapi, and the army will follow him north." Although Li Yue felt it was a pity, he had nothing to do.
The situation is like this, and there is no time to struggle with Jiangdong here, so we have to make a choice.
