"Whoosh!"

With a light roar of arrows, Ao Bai Songxian released the arrows and shot out.

This hard bow with a strength of up to three stones, the eagle arrows shot out, the power and speed are very fierce and fierce, and the soldiers on the side can even hear the muffled sound of arrows shooting into the bones in the distance.

As the main general, Haoge can clearly see that the arrows that shot out like a meteor catching the moon have been shot deep into Geng Jimao's eyebrows and straight into his brain, and the arrows are gone, leaving only a small piece of the tail of the arrow still outside the front door.

Under the tremendous momentum of the steel carved arrows, Geng Jimao rose into the air, drew a long half-arc, and fell to the ground obliquely, without moving.

"Ao Bai is good, good archery, good strength!" Hauge couldn't help but praise loudly.

Ao Bai laughed and put his bow into the sheath with a smug face.

At this time, from the battle in the distance, there was a mournful cry from afar.

"Shizi!"

"General Geng!"

There were even a number of guards, desperately breaking through the encirclement of the Manchurian infantry on the opposite side, and rushed to Geng Ji's hiding side who was lying on his back. They were saddened to find that this warrior, who was still fighting to the death, was now with dilated pupils, his body had become cold, and he could no longer die.

As soon as the main general died, the enemy army was in chaos, and the entire army array quickly became chaotic, constantly retreating, and those young people in the city who could only help and shout behind them turned around and ran, just seeking to save their lives, fully carrying forward the spirit of the dead friends and not the poor road, lest their two legs run slower than their companions.

The besieging Manchurian infantry, seeing that the enemy commander was killed by cold arrows, and the enemy's formation was in chaos, they couldn't help but cheer in unison. They seized the opportunity and quickly went around from both sides, encircling the entire Geng army formation in a semi-arc, trying to kill and wound the enemy as much as possible, and at the same time cutting off their rear roads, so that these Geng troops, who were in chaos and had no backbone, had no chance to get out.

Still, they underestimated the speed of Geng's collapse.

Just as they were walking and killing, just after passing the corner, in the Geng army on the opposite side, I don't know who suddenly shouted, and a large number of soldiers turned around and fled.

Some people ran first, and some people followed immediately, and almost all of Geng's army fled on the spot, fleeing in all directions in the city.

Their flight was so resolute and disorderly, their weapons and armor thrown at each other, trampling each other, crying and howling, like a flock of wild boars fleeing in all directions.

The morale of the enemy collapsed, the whole army fled, and the Manchurian infantry, whose morale was like a rainbow, immediately pursued and killed with all their might, and did not want to let any of them go.

They caught up with the soldiers, slashed them in the back, and immediately went after the next target, ignoring the man they had just killed.

Because these guys who have been in battle for a long time know that people's backs are rich in blood vessels, and as long as they slash them, even if those deserters can escape, they will eventually fall to the ground and die due to continuous blood loss. Therefore, from the sky, many soldiers of Geng who had been stabbed ran expressionlessly, and they fell to the ground with a thud, and there was no movement.

At this time, there were some Geng soldiers and the people in the city, hurriedly opened the other two city gates, and fled in a hurry, as soon as they left the city, they were swarmed by the Manchurian cavalry who had been waiting for a long time, and they were immediately killed, and not a single person was left alive.

This chase like a cat-and-mouse drama finally ended completely after a full hour, and the entire Xiuyan City also completely fell into the hands of Haoge.

Soon, the statistics after the war came up, in this battle, including Geng Zhongyu's cavalry troops, a total of more than 1,200 Geng soldiers and horses were killed, and after the rest of the people were dispersed, more than 800 prisoners, including the young and strong people in the city, were recovered from the treasury in the city, and a large amount of money, food, ordnance and silk were seized.

In this battle, he won a complete victory, and his own men only lost less than 200 Manchurian infantry and more than 40 Manchurian cavalry.

Haoge was overjoyed, and immediately issued a military order to the whole army as he had previously captured Zhuanghe City: "Pass on the general's order, immediately take away the people of the city, and all the ordnance and goods in the city, and escort them all to the sea ships, and if anyone does not obey, they will all be killed!" ”

Hauge's military order, the language is cold and fierce, ruthless, and full of murderous intent.

"Order!"

Under Haoge's military order, those soldiers under his command suddenly searched and killed in the city like bloodthirsty beasts that had loosened their ropes, and the laughter of the Ming soldiers was mixed with the cries of the soldiers and civilians in the city, and the entire Xiuyan City instantly became a miserable hell on earth.

Compared with the people who were only captured but still had to save their lives, the relatives of Geng Zhongming's family, because Haoge's subordinate soldiers hated them for resisting the opponent and refused to surrender, so after rushing into Geng's mansion, they killed everyone they met, and instantly killed Geng Zhongming's entire mansion hundreds of times, and Geng Zhongming's family was wiped out all over the house, and there was no survivor.

The hundreds of captives and thousands of civilians in the city were sent by Hauge to hundreds of his infantry, and they were immediately escorted eastward with their families crying and shouting, all the way to the mouth of the Wuzhong River, where they were to be sent to the ships of the Tang Army's naval divisions, and they were to be detained and shipped by separate ships, and they were escorted south to Jinzhou.

As for the goods, ordnance, money and food in the city, they were all loaded and transported away, and not even a single copper coin was left for Geng Zhongming.

Of course, since the city had fallen, it was useless for the Tang artillery to stay in Xiuyan, so they also returned east to the mouth of the Wuzhong River with those escorted soldiers to take the sailor ship to leave.

And the next day, Hao Gefu sent troops and horses to plunder the countryside, swept away all the Qianhu Fort and Baihu Fort outside Xiuyan City, and set fire to all these military forts.

At this point, the Xiuyan area has been completely ruined, as far as the eye can see, uninhabited, a ruin, and then, Haoge ordered his subordinates to set fire, and burned all the Xiuyan City that had become ruins, like Zhuanghe City.

The flames rose into the sky, and the flames and black smoke rose into the sky like dragons, and the entire city was immediately plunged into a fiery hell, which was terrifying to see from afar. And Haoge's house, in order to show military prestige, in order to deter the Geng army who will come back in the future, ordered Geng Zhongyu, Geng Jimao, and hundreds of heads up and down the Geng Mansion to be hung on the south gate of Xiuyan.

Looking at Zhuanghe City, which was completely destroyed and burned to a white ground, Haoge was extremely happy in his heart, and at the same time felt extremely happy that he had made a decisive attack on Xiuyan this time.

If you don't enter the tiger's den, you can't be a tiger.

If he hadn't made the decision to march into Xiuyan at the beginning, he would not have wantonly displayed his military might here like today.

Hmph, since it is going to be destroyed, then it should be more thorough, people and money can be taken away, and the city and land cannot be taken away, so they can only be completely destroyed like Zhuanghe City.

On the day that Xiuyan City was burned to ashes, Haoge led the remaining 1,200 cavalry and more than 1,000 infantry to withdraw eastward, preparing to return south to Jinzhou on the ships of the Tang Army's naval division located at the mouth of the Wuzhong River, just like the hundreds of soldiers who had withdrawn two days earlier.

What Haoge didn't know was that at noon yesterday, Geng Zhongming, who was leading the army north to return to Xiuyan, finally received the terrible news that Xiuyan Chengpo's entire family had been slaughtered from the Geng cavalry who had fled south.

Geng Zhongming, the king of Huaishun, since Fuzhou withdrew, the chief general of the Qing army, Azige, suddenly decided to let the deputy general Shuotuo take 10,000 Qing soldiers and horses to return to Xiuyan with him. And he himself, with another 40,000 soldiers and horses, retreated to Shengjing first.

Azig acted in this way with his own considerations.

The purpose was that, considering that Fuzhou might be recaptured by the Tang army in the future, the Qing court might continue to send troops to attack Jinfu and other places occupied by the Tang army, so it was extremely necessary to have a camp that could be safely stationed in southern Liaoning.

In the southern Liaoning region, they have been stationed by the king of Sanshun, among them, Gaizhou, where Shang Kexi is stationed, and Zhuanghe, where Kong Youde is stationed, are all stationed near the sea, and such a stronghold has one of the biggest risks, that is, it is easy to be attacked by the Tang army's sailors.

Therefore, only Xiuyan, where Geng Zhongming, the king of Huaishun, is located, because it is in the center of southern Liaoning and is not near the sea, so it should be the best place for soldiers and horses to be stationed. That's why Azig arranged for Shuto to come here with his soldiers and horses.

Now, Belesotto and Geng Zhongming, the king of Huaishun, stood shoulder to shoulder and listened to the ragged and muddy cavalryman on his knees.

"King Huaishun! Haoge Naya, somehow led thousands of soldiers and horses to my Xiuyan City, defeated the prince, and took the city. The two generals, Geng Zhongyu and Geng Jimao, as well as the upper and lower personnel in the Huaishun Palace, were all slaughtered by the beast soldiers! ……”

The cavalryman who fled from outside Xiuyan City that day was speechless and looked sad and indignant, and Geng Zhongming, the Huaishun king of the Qing court, immediately screamed, rolled his eyes, and fell from his horse.

Fortunately, the guards on both sides helped him in time to prevent him from falling to the ground.

The guards screamed in mourning, pinching their people, and finally Geng Zhongming woke up slowly.

It's just that as soon as he opened his eyes, he poofed out a mouthful of blood, which made his clothes and armor dirty, and the guards hurriedly took out cloth towels to help him wipe them off.

"Hauge! Li Xiao! ”

Geng Zhongming looked up at the sky and yelled, the expression on his face was a mixture of endless pain and anger, making his whole face become more and more haggard and distorted.

And here, too, the Belesot was full of astonishment, and he was speechless for a long time with his mouth half-open.

I really didn't expect that Haoge was not in Fuzhou, but he quietly sneaked to Xiuyan, and he was able to capture Xiuyan in one fell swoop and serve Geng Zhongming's lair in one pot.

I didn't expect Haoge to be so powerful, first gave Shang Kexi a head-on blow in Gaizhou, and then gave Geng Zhongming a fatal blow.

"So, where is Haug now? But is it still in Xiuyan? Shuoto shouted at the weeping sentinel.

"Lord Beile, after the little Haoge led the army to break through Xiuyan, he hurriedly came south to report to the king of Huaishun, and now whether the soldiers and horses of the Haoge Department are still in Xiuyan, the minions are not clear."

"Baylor, don't ask more, I'll hurry back to Xiuyan and see how the situation is." Geng Zhongming wiped a mouthful of blood foam from his mouth, and his face suddenly became hideous: "Haoge who entered the dog, if your department is still in Xiuyan, this king must kill all of your thieves, and sacrifice them all alive to the sky, so as to avenge the hundreds of families of my Geng family and the sacrifices of our army!" ”

Geng Zhongming's mind was set, and Shuotuo also agreed, so the two soldiers and horses merged together and hurried to Xiuyan.

The whole army traveled day and night, not daring to take a break, and finally rushed to the outside of Xiuyan City at noon the next day.

Seeing from a distance, Xiuyan City, which had been burned to a white ground, Geng Zhongming's face was already a miserable white.

And when he got closer and saw that the towers of the south gate of the city were covered with the heads of hundreds of people from the Geng family, Geng Zhongming screamed again and fell off the horse again.

It was still fortunate that the left and right guards helped the letter in time, and pinched people again and again, so Geng Zhongming woke up slowly.

He opened his cloudy eyes, his originally pale face turned red in an instant, the horizontal flesh on his face trembled even more, his lips squirmed, and he said sharply: "Haoge who entered the dog, this king will not kill you, he will not skin you alive, and he will not be a man!" ”

Geng Zhongming's roar was over, and suddenly several human-like figures quietly came out of the distant woods, crying all the way to Geng Zhongming's feet.

"King Huaishun, you are back! The little ones since the defeat of the city that day, luckily escaped into the forest, survived to this day, today to see the return of King Huaishun, the joy of the heart, how can it be expressed! King Huaishun, do you know that after Haoge broke through Xiuyan City, he killed hundreds of people in Geng's mansion! Subsequently, this guy took away all the people and ordnance and goods in the city, destroyed and wiped out all the military forts outside Xiuyan City, and then set a fire to completely burn down the entire Xiuyan City! Only then did this guy triumphantly lead his troops back and leave. Alas, this goddamn bastard is really doing all the bad things, lawless......"

Hearing the nagging cry of this remnant soldier, Geng Zhongming trembled all over, his teeth were gritted, and his whole person was about to become a gunpowder that exploded at one point.

It's just that Shuotuo, who was on the side at this time, was impatient, he immediately interrupted this person's chattering words, and asked sharply: "Such sad words, no more words, can you still cry to death and scold Haoge to death!" And you say, after Hauge burned the city, where did he leave, and where did he flee? ”

The rout soldier was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly said: "Lord Beile, Hauge led his troops to leave the city, and in less than two hours, they went all the way east along the Wuchong River, presumably to the mouth of the Wuchong River." ”

Hearing this, Shuo Tuo smiled coldly, then turned his head to Geng Zhongming and said, "Yuge must be going east to the sea, and I want to leave from here on his sailor's ship." However, since Hauge has just left with his troops, we should immediately lead our troops in pursuit, and we must catch up and intercept them before they get on the ship, and we must not let them escape so calmly. ”

"Baylor is right!" Geng Zhongming replied viciously: "You and I have a total of nearly 20,000 soldiers and horses, and against that Haoge, who has less than 3,000 soldiers and horses, it can be called a boulder's crushing egg!" In this pursuit, it is necessary to wipe out all his subordinates, leaving no one behind. Even more to catch Haoge's house, this king will personally start, cut this guy with a thousand knives, and then insert the sky lantern in his belly! For my son, for my brother, for hundreds of families in my Geng Mansion, avenge this sea of blood! ”
