Chapter 1047: East Becomes West (40)
Li Xin has seen hope, the tall cavalry has been squeezed into a space of only about two miles, his own foot soldiers and the opponent's cavalry have now been strangled together, the advantage of the cavalry is now of no use except for being taller, on the contrary, their tall war horses have become a more conspicuous target, the fierce Donghu cavalry has fallen into the quagmire, and it is difficult to move, while the Qin army is more and more courageous, and the price they have paid far exceeds the losses of the Han people. But they have a lofty where.
I can afford to die, but I can't afford to die.
Li Xin squinted his eyes, looking at Gao Yuan, who was jutting left and right in the quagmire, and there was no joy in his heart, how about your martial arts, how about your invincible, as long as this defeat can make you irreversible. Looking at the target of Gao Yuan's killing, it was obviously aimed at himself, and the distance between the two was only a hundred steps away, but this hundred steps away was just a few hundred steps away, and a group of Qin soldiers fell under Gao Yuan's Mo knife, and another group pounced on them without fear of death. Fill the vacated space again, and the sound of Lao Qin's battle song resounded throughout the battlefield.
He is still the invincible No. 1 General of Great Qin, Li Xin thought proudly. The corners of his mouth curled up, and a smile appeared on his face.
But immediately, the smile froze at the corners of his mouth and eyebrows, and he heard the sound of horses' hooves sounding like thunder, Huo Di turned his head, and on the horizon on the right, countless torches were like stars in the sky, galloping.
Not only Li Xin was stunned, but all the generals of the Qin army turned their heads in the direction where the sound of horses' hooves came from almost at the same time, they were all veterans, and just by the sound of the horse's hooves stomping on the ground, it was clear how many cavalry there were.
It was not a small force of enemy cavalry, but a cavalry of up to tens of thousands .
Just when the enemy cavalry was rapidly approaching, behind Li Xin, there was a earth-shattering shout, on the mountain beam, in the maple forest, countless Han troops came out from the inside, most of them, not even wearing armor, but still holding the knife and gun tightly in their hands, on the bare backbone, carrying a pot of feather arrows, the first person, holding a Mo knife, bare-chested, full of meat, beside him, the same shirtless man in his hand is holding the Yellow Dragon Banner of the Han Kingdom.
"Ahaha, my old Tang still ran in front of the cavalry!" Tang Yibiao laughed out loud.
"Commander, we're half the way closer than them!" An officer next to him reminded.
"Go to the ball, Lao Tzu only has two legs, they have four legs!" Tang Yibiao took a sip, "Brothers, go down and kill all these Qin people."
The shirtless Han army rushed down from the maple leaf forest, like a sledgehammer, slamming heavily on the outer positions of the Qin army, easily smashing the seemingly sturdy shell of the Qin army to pieces.
At the same time, in the other direction, the Han cavalry was like a sharp spear, driving straight in, knocking over one Qin army after another in front of the horse and hacking them to death on the spot.
On the battlefield, the host and the guest change positions in an instant.
Looking at the good form just now, it was destroyed by the Han army like a storm in a blink of an eye, Li Xin's throat was sweet, and a mouthful of anti-blood porphyry spurted out, dyeing the cuirass red.
"General, let's go, the general trend has gone, and it can't be stopped!" Yingzhuo, who was covered in blood, rushed in front of Li Xin, his cloak was scattered, and his armor was full of cracks, and he didn't know how many injuries he had suffered.
"Go, where are you going?" Li Xin looked blankly at the battlefield under the firelight, "If I can go, will I still come to the Dark Cloud Banner?" Thousands of miles of grassland, boundless, can't go!"
Ying Zhuo lowered his head in a gloomy manner, the vitality just now was suddenly replaced by endless exhaustion, the wounds on his body continued to gush out blood, and his face turned pale a little, he looked at Li Xin, his eyes showed endless sadness, his hand was soft, and the big knife fell to the ground with a bang, "General, I'm afraid I'm going to take the first step!" After saying this, he threw himself on his horse weakly, and held the horse's head with all his might, so that he did not let himself fall off the horse.
"In this life, I have no regrets about following the general to fight in the south and the north, but unfortunately, we fell short!"
Tears welled up in Li Xin's eyes, "Go, go, I'll come later, let's go to Huangquan Prefecture, summon the old department again, and kill a piece of heaven and earth again."
A smile appeared on Ying Zhuo's face, "Then, then I'm waiting for the general at Naihe Bridge, don't you drink Meng Po soup, you won't be able to recognize your subordinates when the time comes."
With a bang, Ying Zhuo fell off his horse.
Li Xin didn't look at Ying Zhuo who fell off his horse anymore, because he knew that he would be like him soon after. Raising the war knife in his hand, Li Xin roared hoarsely: "Rectify Lao Qin, restore my rivers and mountains, blood will not be shed, death will not be truce, sons, kill!"
He rode his horse and rushed into battle.
When the first rays of sunlight in the sky pierced the fog and sprinkled the sunlight that destroyed the growth of all things on this blood-stained land, the war was basically over on the land of the dark cloud banner with a radius of more than ten miles, and there were corpses everywhere, broken limbs and stumps, everywhere, and it was almost impossible to find a place without blood, and the land near this side of the Siyang River was all red.
Li Xin's banner has not yet fallen, but around him, there are no more than a thousand soldiers surrounding him, and they are surrounded by countless Han army infantry and cavalry. And farther away, a group of Qin army prisoners under the escort of the Han army, is heading in the direction of Jishi City, even though the Qin army is strictly disciplined, but when it finally collapses, they are not much different from ordinary people, knowing that they can't do it, not everyone can do it, and they die with anger, and not everyone has this mentality. In the final stage, a large group of Qin soldiers finally abandoned their weapons and surrendered to the Han army in despair.
Li Xin is not dead yet, because Gao Yuan doesn't want to kill him, Li Xin is King Qin Wulie's playmate since childhood, and he is his most trusted general, if he can be captured alive, I believe that the shock to the Qin State is definitely much greater than killing him, not to mention, if people are still alive, there are too many articles that can be done.
The sound of horses' hooves was heard, and the Han army, which was tightly besieging the Qin army, gave way to a passage, and the bloodied Gao Yuan rode out slowly, and beside him, He Lanyan, who was also covered with blood, was accompanied by He Lanxiong, Yan Haibo, Tang Yibiao and other generals on both sides.
"General Li, you lost, why bother to fight meaninglessly, put down your arms, you are my distinguished guest on the high seat!" Gao Yuan shouted.
Li Xin sat on the ground, the sword in his hand was so broken that he was almost exhausted. Hearing Gao Yuan's shout, he stood up with his war knife, looked at Gao Yuan not far away, and laughed: "Is the king here to persuade him to surrender?"
Gao Yuan shook his head, "General Li is not a person who will surrender, so I don't bother to make this effort, but it is not impossible to lay down my arms and be my guest. When the time is ripe, how about Gao Yuan send General Li back to China? Look at these soldiers around you, they have done their duty as a soldier, can General Li bear to watch them die worthless like this?"
Li Xin said hesitantly: "Li wants to thank the king for his kindness, but Li Xin will not give the king this opportunity to take me to help my king. As for these warriors, since they have chosen to follow me, they will naturally live and die with me."
Gao Yuan shook his head, "General Li, do you really not consider my mention?"
"There is no need to mention this matter again, but the king, before leaving, I still have one more thing to ask, I wonder if the king can tell him calmly?" LI Xindao.
"Nature."
"Did the king already expect that Li would set up an ambush in this dark cloud banner?"
"Yes." Gao Yuan nodded.
"In that case, why does the king still want to cast a net? Although you have already made arrangements, this kind of risky move is very easy to capsize, and if your reinforcements arrive an hour late, I will be able to achieve my pre-war goal and kill you, so that even if my whole army is destroyed, I believe that the Han Kingdom will not last."
"Because I believe in my generals, and I believe in my soldiers to arrive at the Cloud Banner on time!" Gao Yuan smiled. As for why take the risk? General Li, you are not just leading troops to fight, you are also a veteran in politics, I am the king of the Han Dynasty, and you can't just look at the problem from the perspective of the army. Now that Meng Tian and Lu Chao's two armies have swept through the Wei State and entered Yuyang County in our country, the people of these two places are suffering from your poison, and the sooner I wiped out your troops, the sooner the people there can be liberated, and the sooner I can get on the right track."
"I'm afraid that I also have some power to eliminate the Donghu people and stabilize your rule in Liaodong, right?" Li Xin said with a smile.
Gao Yuan laughed, "General Li is really very human, at this time, he has not forgotten to separate my monarch and ministers, but unfortunately, you have miscalculated your nose, whether it is the Donghu people, the Huns, or the Han people, they are all treated equally in my lofty eyes, they are my people, today the Donghu Independent Cavalry Division is in front of me, they will naturally have to bear the corresponding responsibility, if it is Helanxiong's Hun Division, or my Young Guard, no matter who is in the current position, They should all make sacrifices for the thousands of people of the Great Han. Wynne, Gao Che, Mu Gu Lu, what do you say?"
The three Donghu generals immediately stepped forward and shouted loudly: "I am willing to go to the soup and fight for the Han Dynasty and do my best."
"Look, this is my big man. There are many ethnic groups within the borders of my Han country, but no matter which clan they belong to, they have to add the word Dahan before the clan name!" Gao Yuan said sharply.
"Got it!" Li Xin shook his head angrily, "In this battle, you won, but our Great Qin hasn't lost yet."
"You won't have to wait long!" Gao Yuan said with a smile. (To be continued......)
