Breaking through is generally the last thing the losing side can do, and as you can imagine, it is not an easy thing to do.

After seeing the tragic situation of being slaughtered in Macheng, as well as the corpse of the Song woman Chilu, Li Nan, who had the absolute upper hand at this time, gave the order for a comprehensive pursuit.

"The golden soldiers are brutal, so our army doesn't need to be taken prisoner in this battle!"

Keeping prisoners in battle is actually a very laborious thing, and there have been many prisoners of war captured by the empire in the southern and northern wars over the years, but those are the result of Li Nan's strict orders.

Neither Starbacus and Cress, from the Roman world, nor Leonidas, who fought against the Persians, were not benevolent people on the battlefield.

As for Pang Wanchun and Lin Chong, they are also standard nationalists, and they have no mercy for outsiders at all.

In the eyes of these imperial generals, the dead enemy is the good enemy, and bothering to capture them is not in everyone's consideration at all.

At this time, hearing the order to kill issued by Li Nan, Lin Chong, Wei Xiangman and other generals of the army immediately chased after them with their own men and horses.

While breaking the tightropes tied to the trees in front of them, they rushed forward and fled, and the speed of these golden men naturally couldn't be improved, so the imperial army chasing behind them fought steadily, easily raising their guns to shoot, advancing, raising their guns to shoot, repeating the monotonous but efficient killing action.

As the king of a country, Li Nan did not participate in the battle, but stayed where he was, waiting for the battle to end......

Wanyan Zongwang brought a total of 50,000 Jin Guo Iron Cavalry this time, and their main task was to cut off the logistics and transportation lines of the Huangzhou and Yangtze River Imperial fleets.

In the offensive and defensive battle of Macheng, Zhu Tong and his 5,000 men resisted desperately, although in the end the Jin soldiers finally broke through the small city and eliminated Zhu Tong's troops, but more than 15,000 people were killed and wounded.

When the Jin soldiers were surrounded by the Imperial Forest Legion led by Li Nan, after some fighting, Wanyan Zongwang finally left Macheng with only half of the army.

Of the more than 20,000 Jin Iron Cavalry, seven or eight thousand died on the way to the charge, and now these remaining Jin soldiers, because they have lost their unified command, they can only flee like headless flies.

The golden soldiers in the encirclement actually had no hope of escaping at all, when the imperial troops on both sides of the woods began to encircle, they had bullets and grenades flying from all sides, no matter how desperately these golden soldiers fought and how bravely they fought, but they were still harvested by death one by one.

After the battle came to an end, the soldiers in the army who were in charge of the aftermath began to collect the steel wires laid on the trees, collect the horses that had not yet died in battle, collect horse meat, and strip the iron armor, leather armor, weapons, and gold, silver, silk and other property they had looted from all over the Great Song Dynasty.

Li Nan came to the side of a golden corpse, and used his long sword to pick open the package carried on the war horse, some gold and silver jewelry that were still stained with blood, and a colorful women's silk dress fell out of it.

Unfolding a red silk garment embroidered with Tilian, and seeing the broken tie, Li Nan's mind appeared when Jin Bing savagely pulled down the woman's undershirt.

Squeezing the clothes in his hand tightly, Li Nan's heart was extremely uncomfortable, he had always been strong, he felt dizzy, and staggered a few steps against a tree.

Li Nan's dream has always been to change history and save the Han people who suffered humiliation because of the Jin soldiers' southward march, but he didn't expect that things would come to this point step by step.

Li Nan founded the Chinese Empire and captured half of the Great Song Dynasty, which indeed made the people of the Great Song Dynasty south of the Yangtze River live a stable and prosperous life, but he never expected that in order to resist the attack of the empire, Zhao Huan of Qinzong took the initiative to form an alliance with the Jin State and let the Jin army enter the country.

Now the Jin soldiers wantonly killed and plundered all over the Song Dynasty, but the Song court had to rely on the Jin army to fight, so they turned a blind eye to their various atrocities and did not dare to restrain them at all, and the people seemed to have fallen into a boundless hell, and this all came from Li Nan's changes to the world.

Now, Li Nan couldn't help but feel a little confused, he didn't know whether what he did was right or wrong, whether it was because of himself that these Song people suffered the cruelty of the Jin people.

"Holy Lord, what's wrong with you?"

There was an anxious question in his ears, and Li Nan, who was leaning against the big tree, opened his eyes and found a group of people around him worriedly.

Looking at these cronies who had either followed him for many years or brought back from other worlds, Li Nan slowly shook his head and said, "I'm fine. ”

Lin Chong, who received an urgent report from the soldiers, heard that Emperor Li Nan was unusual, and he also hurried back from the other side of the battlefield.

Lin Chong, who was wearing heavy armor, took off his helmet, he glanced at the package that was opened on the back of the war horse, and the red silk coat that Li Nan held tightly in his hand, and roughly guessed Li Nan's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, I know what you're thinking."

Lin Chong waved his hand and motioned for the others to bring a folding stool, and after helping Li Nan to sit down, he said slowly: "The Jin soldiers came to the Song Kingdom to slaughter, and the fault is not you, but Zhao Huan, the lord of the Song Kingdom. ”

"The minister recently read the history books and found that few countries in the past dynasties would lead foreign soldiers and horses into the enemy to defend against the enemy, and even if there were, the final outcome was extremely miserable. For example, Shi Jingjiao once invited the Khitan cavalry to destroy the Later Tang Dynasty at the expense of the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, and was later destroyed by the Khitan. The territory of the two countries of Jin and Song borders, which is tantamount to feeding neighbors with tigers, thinking that when our empire did not participate in the war, the Jin soldiers had already sent two large armies to invade the Song Dynasty, so Your Majesty does not need to be sad because of the suffering of the people. ”

In fact, Li Nan just couldn't think about it for a while, and after listening to Lin Chong's enlightenment, he also walked out of the tip of the horns.

Li Nan patted Lin Chong's shoulder gratefully, put away his sad emotions after getting up, and said in a deep voice with his finger to the north: "I swear here today that I will not kill all the golden people in this life, and I will not give up!" ”

Hearing the oath made by His Majesty the Emperor, the soldiers of the whole army immediately raised their weapons in their hands and shouted in unison: "Kill!" Kill! Kill! Kill all the golden people! ”

It's a pity that Yan Zonghan, another famous general of the Jin Kingdom, did not give Li Nan a chance to vent his murderous intent.

Wanyan Zonghan, who commanded 50,000 gold soldiers and contained the main force of the Fourth Army of the Pang Wanchun Empire in Huangzhou, was shocked when he saw Wanyan Zongwang fleeing with only dozens of personal soldiers.

Wanyan Zongwang and Wanyan Zonghan are both generals of the Jin Kingdom, and the two know each other's strength very well, so after Wanyan Zonghan roughly understood the process of the battle of Macheng, he immediately decided to withdraw his troops.

There are more than 40,000 cavalry troops of the Jin Kingdom, and they have incomparable mobility in the plains, as long as they want to go, no one can stop them without setting a trap in advance.

The Imperial Army is no worse than any country's army in terms of attack, but it moves too slowly, which is definitely the biggest flaw of the Imperial Army.

When Li Nan came to Huangzhou with the Imperial Forest Legion to join Pang Wanchun, all he saw was a pile of corpses of Jin soldiers who had been thrown down.
