Li Cunxiao's army is indeed less, less than 3,000 people, when approaching the main battlefield, Niu Jin proposed that he lead 3,000 people around to attack Giant Rock City, maybe it can have a miraculous effect, Li Cunxiao is not too much in favor of this, this is too risky, their main task is to immediately rush to the main battlefield to support Li Xun's main force, if the division of troops can not complete the task, something goes wrong, then the sin is great.

However, Niu Jin insisted on doing this, his attitude was very resolute, and he made a statement, if anything went wrong, he would bear it alone, and Li Cunxiao would not be reluctant, so he could only agree, because the three thousand people were Niu Jin's headquarters soldiers and horses, and he was only directly responsible for Li Xun, and others could not command him.

Niu Jin, an unknown junior born as a bandit, after several years of training and ups and downs, especially after experiencing the life-and-death battle of Xiaogu County, the confidence of the whole person suddenly rose, and he became more and more confident, and he became more and more self-confident, and he also had more and more his own ideas and opinions.

Niu Jin led his headquarters of 3,000 soldiers and horses to the Giant Rock City, he was very cautious, did not have the impulse to mess around, sent a few people sneaked into the city, to find out the situation, and soon, the scouts returned, reporting that there were hardly any defenders in the city.

Hearing this news, Niu Jin couldn't believe it, the importance of Giant Rock City is self-evident, not far away, Zhan Heng and Li Xun are engaged in a life-and-death battle, such an important place is actually undefended, Niu Jin has a thought, is the main general of the Western Regions in the water in his head?

Niu Jin's initial thought was very simple, in his opinion, there will definitely be an army to defend Giant Rock City, if there are not many troops, then fight a dozen, maybe it will be successful? If there are a lot of troops, you still have to fight a dozen, even if you can't beat it, it can also cause a lot of commotion, at least let the Western Regions army in front of you know that our Jin army is behind you, maybe there will be a lot of people, ready to go around its back road, front and back flank, it will definitely greatly affect the morale and military spirit of the Western Regions army, this is a profitable business, Niu Jin is the idea of fighting, this is the attitude is resolute, willing to take all the responsibility, but also to lead the army to the Giant Rock City.

But the situation was beyond Niu Jin's expectations, and when he arrived, he found out that Giant Rock City was actually in an undefended state, which was simply God helping me.

The adjutant general said happily: "General, this is simply a big pie that fell from the sky." ”

Niu Jin was also excited, waved his hand, and gave an order: "The whole army will enter the city immediately." ”

The 10,000 soldiers and horses of Giant Rock City were ordered by Zhan Heng, and all of them went out of the city and rushed to the main battlefield more than ten miles away, Niu Jin almost did not encounter any resistance, and took Giant Rock City very smoothly, and then, Niu Jin immediately issued an order, set fire, set fire everywhere, the bigger the better, must let Zhan Heng and others see it.

Zhan Heng's army was originally in a disadvantage, and the left flank was about to collapse and show defeat, but the 10,000 soldiers of Juyan City arrived at this time and all threw themselves into the left flank battlefield, which immediately stabilized the situation, and the two sides fell into a stalemate again.

Shan Qiu shook his head and said: "Great Marshal, although the comprehensive strength of the Western Regions army is much worse than ours, there are too many of them, twice as many as ours, and its commander does not have too many command errors, it seems that there will be no results in today's battle." ”

Li Xun nodded, Shan Qiu said well, if you continue to fight, it will be a war of attrition, even if you grit your teeth and fight, you may be able to achieve the final victory, but it must be a tragic victory, Li Xun does not want to see this result, if it is a victory at the cost of huge casualties, Li Xun would rather withdraw for the time being, this army is Li Xun's entire strength, if there are all the dead and wounded here, it will only cheapen others, even if he finally occupies the entire Western Regions, if there is no strong military force, it will not be able to hold.

The two sides fought fiercely for more than an hour, the casualties of the Jin army have exceeded 5,000, this number is a lot, Li Xun observed the battlefield, the Western Regions army with the arrival of the follow-up 10,000 soldiers, the morale has obviously been greatly improved, the more fierce the battle, it is slowly having a tendency to grasp the initiative on the battlefield, seeing this, Li Xun has a heavy heart, ready to order the retreat, and at the same time has some regrets in his heart, this is a good opportunity, if he can completely defeat the Zhan Heng army here, for the overall military strength of the Western Regions, It will be an extremely heavy blow, but unfortunately this opportunity seems to be ungraspable.

"Look, Boss, it's a lot of smoke."

Jiang Daxiong suddenly pointed into the distance and shouted.

Li Xun looked up, and sure enough, the smoke that rushed to the sky could be faintly seen even if it was more than ten miles away.

"Where is it in the direction of Boulderstone?"

Li Xun said in disbelief.

Shan Qiu looked over there, his expression was uncertain, he suddenly thought of something, and said to Li Xun: "The 10,000 soldiers who arrived later should be from Juyan City, so to speak, the defense of Juyan City must be empty at the moment, Li Cunxiao's army has not seen Niu Jin's men and horses, is it ......?"

Hearing Shan Qiu's words, Li Xun said with a look of surprise: "Could it be that Niu Jin took advantage of this opportunity to sneak attack Giant Rock City?" ”

The matter was quickly confirmed, and in the rear of the Western Regions army, there was a sudden commotion, and a group of thousands of soldiers and horses rushed in.

After Niu Jin set a fire in Juyan City, he left 500 soldiers to guard it, and then immediately led 2,500 soldiers out of the city to rush to the main battlefield and attack the back of the Western Regions army from the rear.

The smoke of the fire in Giant Rock City, Li Xun saw it, and the army of the Western Regions also saw it at this time, plus Niu Jin's Jin army killed from behind, which indicated a situation that Giant Rock City had fallen, and his retreat was cut off.

Li Xun is not a rookie anymore, how could he let go of such a good opportunity, he immediately waved his sword and roared: "Giant Rock City has been taken by us, and the enemy's rear road has been cut off, brothers, kill me." ”

Li Xun's words greatly boosted the morale of the three armies, and everyone struggled to attack, and in less than a moment, the army of the Western Regions completely collapsed.

On the eighth day of February in the first year of Tianhe, Li Xun led nearly 50,000 soldiers and more than 90,000 troops of the Western Regions, and conducted a decisive battle in the city of Juyan City for more than ten miles, the two sides fought fiercely for nearly two hours, and the stalemate was stalemate.

Li Xun led the army into Juyan City, Niu Jin followed aside, many people looked at him, they were full of envy, this dog day this time has made a great contribution, just now Li Xun hugged Niu Jin and laughed, promised that after the end of the war, he should be rewarded.

Niu Jin's face was calm and expressionless, but in his heart, he was very excited at the moment, and he was even more happy, and he just wanted to look up to the sky and laugh.
