Since Heyang County has been taken, the remaining county seats will be easier, especially after the soldiers and horses from Hedong and other places have arrived one after another, the Tang army in Hanoi County has reached 20,000. Li Xin sent his troops and horses eastward to capture the rest of the counties. Under the assault of various armies, the rest of the counties of Hanoi County also fell into the hands of the Tang Dynasty. The only one who supported to the end was Yewang County.

However, although Yewang County was taken by the Tang army until the end, the result did not change. It's just that Lu Hu led some of his own soldiers and henchmen to break out and escaped all the way to Xiuwu County in Ji County.

At this time, the soldiers and horses urgently dispatched by Murong Ke had just arrived here. After the two sides converged, they couldn't help but feel that the situation was grim.

The tens of thousands of troops heading south were led by Murong Wei, the Duke of Nankang, and on the way south, he learned that the two cities of Shanyang County and Huai County had fallen into the hands of the Tang army, and he couldn't help but be furious. After all, once the strategy of these two counties is lost, it will become very difficult to block the Tang army in Hanoi County.

In an emergency, he had to report to the court urgently, and on the other hand, he divided the soldiers and horses into two parts. The previous deployment of Murong Ke was implemented on the spot, and this line of defense was placed in the area of Xiuwu County.

The distance from Xiuwu County to Shanyang County and Huai County is about the same, located in the east of these two counties, a total of more than 20 miles away from the south is also the Yellow River, and the north is also looking at the Taihang Mountain. Therefore, although the layout of the defense line here cannot be supported by two endpoints such as Shanyang County and Huai County, it can also have a good effect.

Of course, Murong Wei's greater hope was actually placed on the remaining nearly 30,000 troops. There are quite a few Yan soldiers who have fled from the counties of Hanoi County to the north, and the total number of soldiers is nearly seven or eight thousand.

He is ready to lead the 30,000 army south, and if he can defeat the Tang army in Hanoi County, there is no need to say much about the rest of the matter.

Lu Hu was very much in favor of this idea, but he did not go south with him on the grounds that he was injured. Instead, he stayed in this line of defense and stayed with the 20,000 Yan army.

Murong Wei led the army to the south to find the Tang army for a decisive battle, but at this time, among those people in Hanoi County, except for Lu Hu, none of them knew that Li Xin had arrived in person. If this news is transmitted back to Yecheng, I am afraid that Murong Ke will not let Murong Wei lead the troops, but come in person.

Murong Wei does not have too many records in history, obviously, he should not have had a very wonderful life, except for Murong Jun's younger brother. If it weren't for the fact that there was no one in the court, and ordinary people couldn't believe it, I'm afraid Murong Ke wouldn't have sent him.

In Hanoi County, there is a river that runs from northwest to southeast, and this river is also a large river at this time, and the volume of water is quite large. Its birthplace is still in the mountains west of Shangdang, and after passing through the countless valleys of the Taihang Mountains, it finally flows through the north of Qinshui County.

The river originates in Qinshui County in Hanoi County, then flows eastward through the east of Yewang County, then southeast through the south of Chau County, and finally joins the Yellow River in the south of Huai County.

Facing the menacing army of Murong Wei, Li Xin decided to lure the enemy deeper. Leaving some soldiers and horses to guard Shanyang County and other county seats, he himself led an army of 10,000 to engage the enemy.

The battle was fought ten miles east of Shanyang, and Li Xin sent 5,000 soldiers and horses to challenge. But it was only for less than a cup of tea, as if he couldn't resist it, and he withdrew in a hurry.

Murong Wei, who was originally a little cautious because of the prestige of the Tang Army, saw that the Tang Army was so vulnerable under the first battle, he was naturally extremely proud in his heart, and his heart of despising the enemy suddenly rose. Seeing the situation that the Tang army retreated in a big way, he naturally ordered a pursuit.

As a result, a pursuit battle began, and Murong Wei did not care about recovering Shanyang Huai County and other cities, but was bent on destroying this large army of the Tang army. In this way, he was able to complete the battle and calm down the entire Hanoi County in the shortest possible time.

Originally, his idea was not wrong, but the problem is, he found the wrong person! If he is sure of victory, he can do this, which can greatly reduce the damage and consumption on his side.

Obviously, he could not be sure of victory.

Pursuing all the way and fleeing while fighting, the Tang army lost three battles and three times, and was defeated by Murong Wei. In this way, in just one day, Li Xin led the army to retreat all the way to the east bank of Qinshui in the southeast of Yewang County, and finally stopped.

Qinshui has a bend to the north here, and dozens of miles to the south is Sima Yi's hometown.

Murong Wei saw that Tang Jun had finally stopped, blocked by Qinshui, and it seemed that there was no way to escape, and he couldn't help but feel overjoyed. Without waiting for the whole army to rest and regroup, he hurriedly ordered an attack.

Originally, after chasing all the way, the army should be allowed to rest for a while, and at the same time, let the army form a tight formation, and then attack after adjusting the arrangement. But now he ordered the attack in such a hurry, so that the Yan soldiers attacked at an inconsistent pace, and it seemed that they were in a chaotic mess.

On the contrary, the Tang army arrayed near the river was different. Because they had already been prepared, as soon as they arrived at this place, they immediately completed the reorganization of the formation, and then waited for the arrival of the enemy army.

When the Yan army was in front of the battle, the Tang army at this time changed its previous cowardly and incompetent appearance, and all of them became fierce, and the two sides soon became a mess.

Just when Murong Wei was fighting Li Xin with all his might, in Yewang County in the north, Deng Qiang led 2,500 unbroken troops quietly out of the city gate, and then crossed the Qinshui from the bridge outside the north gate, and killed behind Murong Wei's army.

At the same time, in the county town south of the battlefield, Zhang Hao also led 2,500 unbroken troops and quietly walked in the direction of Deng Qiang.

After about half an hour of fighting, Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao finally reached the edge of the battlefield. At this time, because the armies on both sides were already in a battle, most of the Yan troops did not notice that thousands of Tang troops actually appeared behind them.

It wasn't until Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao joined the battle that Murong Wei and the others realized that something was wrong. However, it was obviously too late to react at this time. The scattered soldiers and horses are like poured beans, and although they can be recovered, it is by no means easy.

Deng Qiang and Zhang Hao killed the two soldiers and horses from the north and south sides of the battlefield respectively. Under the leadership of two invincible generals, the Unbroken Army was like two tornadoes, uprooted everywhere they passed, and no one could stop them for a moment.

Nearly 30,000 Yan troops only lasted for an hour before they completely collapsed. Seeing that the situation was not good, Murong Wei and the others hurriedly ordered to retreat north, while they themselves ran away first.

This time, it became Yan Jun who was chased. Li Xin ordered the whole army to pursue, and the army slaughtered all the way, and everywhere it passed, the ground ambushed corpses all the way. Eventually, the two sides returned to the place where they first met, ten miles east of Shanyang County.

At this time, the 20,000 troops who were left to stick to Xiuwu County had already learned the news of the defeat ahead. They hurriedly sent people to support Murong Wei, so Tang Yan and the two sides faced each other on the battlefield again.

However, this time, Murong Wei was no longer in high spirits as before. After a great defeat, his whole body looked a little depressed and frightened. Especially at this time, in terms of numbers, they did not have much advantage over the Tang Army.

The two sides confronted each other for about a pillar of incense, and each reorganized its troops and horses. Murong Wei was still sober and knew that he couldn't retreat without a fight, otherwise the battle situation would inevitably collapse to the point where it could no longer be recovered.

Therefore, he could only lead the army to stop the Tang army here.

However, this time, Lu Hu was not around. For he made an excuse to go first, and hurried north with some of his men.

Xiuwu County is closer to the Yellow River than to Taihang Mountain, and there is a distance of about 100 miles from the west bank of the Yellow River to the eastern foot of Taihang Mountain. The place where the two sides confronted each other was on the plain between the mountains and rivers.

This time, Li Xinke was no longer polite. After the soldiers and horses were reorganized, he took the lead in attacking. The main force of the Chinese army of 10,000 attacked the front, all of which were composed of ordinary foot soldiers, and this time he did not bring cavalry over.

The difference is that on the left flank, he put 2,000 light cavalry to attack, but on the right flank, he put 5,000 unbroken troops. It was clear that the focus of his attack was not on the front, but on the two flanks, or rather, on the left flank of the enemy army on his right flank.

As soon as the battle began, nearly 20,000 Tang troops shouted angrily and rushed towards the enemy. Seeing this, Murong Wei ordered a counterattack. Yan Jun also rushed over, and the two sides collided directly.

No matter which direction it is, the Yan army is obviously inferior to the Tang army. For these soldiers of the Yan Army, who had just been recruited from all over the country, they were facing the soldiers of the Tang Army who had experienced great battles again and again, where would they be opponents.

The Chinese army can't be defeated, it can barely be supported, and if the cavalry of the two sides fights together, there is no result for the time being. However, the left wing of the Yan army, which was engaged in the battle with the Bupo army, was already defeated from the beginning.

Seeing the neat and unbroken army, the Yan soldiers were already frightened, not to mention that when they rushed over, they were rushed by that anger, and many Yan soldiers didn't even have the courage to resist. The two sides were like a gentle collision between a giant and a baby, and the left flank of the Yan army soon collapsed.

Once the left flank collapsed, the Bubu Army took advantage of the situation and smashed into the enemy's middle army. In this way, where could the Yan army still be able to stop, and under the rapid attack of the Tang army in front and behind, the formation was chaotic, and the soldiers scattered and fled.

In the midst of the chaos, Murong Wei no longer had the good luck he had before, and was killed on the spot by a Tang general. In this regard, Murong Wei, who had just been ordered to lead the army south and was pinned on by the Yan Imperial Court, was directly defeated.
