The Yizhou army on the earthen wall felt the scorching waves, and was glad in his heart, fortunately it was not himself who experienced all this! After a short period of consternation, the Yizhou army immediately realized that everyone was still an enemy, but when they didn't sympathize with them, the crossbowmen immediately began to get busy, and these Xiliang troops, who left their butts to the Yizhou army, suffered heavy casualties in the face of the sudden attack.

On the other side of the trench, the Xiliang army had already turned around and fled from the scorching range of the flames, looking at the fire in the sky and listening to the heart-rending wails, they were also terrified.

In the rear, Dong Zhuo and Li Ru were already stunned, they couldn't have imagined that Liu Zhang would use such a cruel method!

"Liu Zhang, no matter how poisonous his heart is, he ......" Dong Zhuo couldn't help but scold.

"Xiangye!" Li Ru stabilized his mind and said, "Order a retreat, there is no need to continue!" ”

Dong Zhuo couldn't help but be furious and screamed, "Retreat? Don't you see, on the other side of the trench, there are at least 10,000 or 20,000 people, and they are just thrown away? How many more do I have to give up? ”

"Xiangye, Liu Zhang is brutal and unkind, and he does not hesitate to use fire to replace the soldiers, and he will get heavenly retribution in the future, but this method is very powerful, and the flames are like a wall blocking their connection with the rear, and we have no way to cross this wall to attack the enemy and rescue them, they have no way to escape...... It is useless for us to stay, if we let the living soldiers watch them burned to char and slaughtered, it will definitely make the soldiers fearful, deal a heavy blow to the morale of our army, and will be even more detrimental to the future of the war. ”

Li Dao also ran over with a rolling generation, and said with a sad face: "Xiangye, Liu Zhang is so ruthless, he burned our tens of thousands of troops with one fire!" Let's get out of here, it's too late! ”

"Are you scared?" Dong Zhuo gritted his teeth with a solemn killing sound.

Li Wei couldn't help but shudder, and said: "Xiangye, the last general is not afraid, but Liu Zhang's move is too ruthless, once Liu Zhang destroys the brothers in the sea of fire, he will definitely cover up the fire and attack our army, now our three armies have been taken away by it, and they are unable to fight again, if Liu Zhang's free hand is bitten, it will be dangerous!" ”

Li Ru said again: "What Zhiran said is good, please think twice!" A gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late, why fight for the day! ”

Dong Zhuo looked at the two of them, sighed after a long time, and waved his hand weakly: "According to the method you said!" ”

Li Ru hurriedly said: "Xiangye is wise! ”

Dong Zhuo's body trembled slightly, wise?

Li Ru said to Li Dao again: "Childish, since Xiangye has agreed, you immediately go and organize a retreat, and order the cavalry to be the rear guard of the whole army to strictly prevent Liu Zhang from pursuing!" ”

"Yes, Xiangye, the last general will retire!"

After a while, the sound of golden sound sounded in the Xiliang army, and the Xiliang army outside the sea of fire immediately began to retreat, they didn't want to stay in this ghost place for a moment, and the faint scream lingered in their ears like a ghost crying wolf, I'm afraid that many people are destined to be unable to sleep tonight!

After a small number of Xiliang soldiers escaped from the cracks in the sea of fire, the flames quickly spread over, and the escape routes became fewer and fewer, and finally even the last opening was blocked, and the people on this side of the sea of fire had no way to live!

The Xiliang army has retreated, and the Yizhou army has no worries (even if the Xiliang army does not retreat, it is powerless, the flames and smoke block everyone's sight, except for fire and smoke, they can't see anything, if they attack rashly, I don't know how many of them will die under their hands. On the other hand, the Yizhou army did not have this concern, the trebuchet did not stop for a moment, always roaring, and kept throwing stone bullets on the head of the Xiliang army, until the flames gradually decreased, and they saw that the Xiliang army on the opposite side had already not known how long they had retreated, and they stopped), the arrow rain kept shooting towards the Xiliang army, and the Xiliang army was losing ground, and many people threw down their weapons in despair and shouted: "Surrender, we surrender......"

Someone threw down the door and rushed to the front of the walled gate, banging on the gate desperately, shouting: "Surrender, open the door, we surrendered, surrendered......"

Someone set an example, and the trapped Xiliang army immediately threw down their weapons in pieces and shouted surrender.

Gao Shun was not a person who loved to kill, so he immediately ordered to stop the attack, and ordered all the trapped Xiliang troops to put down all their weapons, take off their armor, and then line up against the earthen wall.

Generally speaking, people who surrender are not required to take off their armor, and they are often only required to throw away their weapons, but Gao Shun roughly estimated that there were almost 20,000 trapped people, if these people hid weapons in the armor and made trouble in the camp, things would be troublesome, and Liu Zhang was in the camp, he could not be careful, if Liu Zhang had the slightest mistake, he did not dare to imagine......

The Xiliang army cooperated with Gao Shun very much, and took off their armor more quickly than one another, because the steel heated up very quickly under the scorching flames, and it was already hot after a while, in fact, they didn't need Gao Shun's orders, they would also take off their armor, otherwise maybe they would be steamed after a while, and some people even took off their shirts and pants, leaving only a pair of pants to cover their shame.

When everyone stopped, everyone felt the scorching stench wafting in the air, and many soldiers could no longer bear the churning in their stomachs, and stuck their heads out of the earthen wall, "vomit...... Vomiting ...... "vomited wildly, which made it bitter for the Xiliang soldiers below, but now that people are swords, I am fish and meat, they dare not be angry, and they dare not speak, so they are so hard to receive the "shower". Hide? Where to hide? The farther away from the earthen wall, the higher the temperature, who wants to be roasted on the fire? I think for it, a little dirt is disgusting, but it doesn't kill people. Besides, their weapons were all thrown not far in front of them, and if they acted rashly and were misunderstood by the Yizhou army, which was still like a great enemy, then the death would be too wrongful! I have to say that the Xiliang Army has done a lot of such things, and its ability to withstand it is much stronger than that of the Yizhou Army, but compared to the Yizhou Army, they turned a blind eye.

"Someone, report to the lord, please make it public, how to deal with these captives!"

After a while, the soldiers brought back Liu Zhang's order, Liu Zhang ordered a large area to be set aside in the south to accommodate these Xiliang soldiers, and strictly ordered them not to leave the specified range, not to make noise, not to gather crowds to make trouble, and violators were all killed, and at the same time Liu Zhang ordered that as long as the troops did not make trouble, they should not be abused, and they should be provided with food to support their lives.

Gao Shun immediately ordered someone to clean up the place, and after the place was cleaned up, he opened the gate of the village and ordered the troops to line up in a single column and enter their cage.

……

The angry Dong Zhuo returned to the handsome tent and immediately summoned Li Ru: "Wenyou, you tell the prime minister, do we still have hope?" ”

After hesitating for a moment, Li Ru knew that if Dong Zhuo was deflated at this time, the Xiliang Army would really be doomed, although he knew that the situation was already very dangerous, he still had to say firmly: "Xiangye...... The current situation is indeed unfavorable to our army, but until the last moment, success or failure is still difficult to see, at present our army strength is still superior to Liu Zhang, subordinates believe that as long as the whole army works together, hope remains! ”

Dong Zhuo really cheered up a little and said: "Yes, I believe that my Xiliang Army is invincible, and Liu Zhang'er is only a temporary power...... If he hadn't used such a vicious method this time, Benxiang believes that Benxiang would have been able to take his head today......"

After the two of them boasted to themselves, Li Dao, Guo Yan, Yang Feng, and Li Le walked into the gorgeous handsome tent with sad faces.

"The casualties are out?" Seeing the expressions of the four dead fathers, Dong Zhuo knew that something was wrong and said coldly.

"Back to Xiangye, the result is ...... Go out...... Come out......" Li Dao lowered his head and didn't dare to face Dong Zhuo.

"Say, I can still bear a little loss of my true appearance!"

Li Dao looked at the other three, and secretly hoped that someone could help him share his worries and report the casualty figures to Dong Zhuo...... Our soldiers were wounded...... More than 54,000 people were killed or missing...... Among them, more than 2,000 people were lightly and seriously injured...... "Compared with the battle deaths, the number of wounded looks very small, and there is a reason for this, the main battlefield is on the other side of the trench, the Yizhou army is on fire, and even the strong and intact soldiers on the other side of the trench have not escaped a few, not to mention the wounded soldiers, all of which were left to the Yizhou army." More than 54,000 minus more than 2,000 wounded soldiers who fled back, that is to say, in just one battle, Dong Zhuo's troops were killed, missing, and captured 52,000 people, which is probably the largest loss in a single day battle in the 400 years of the Han Dynasty!

"What did you say?" Dong Zhuo's fat body jumped up violently, grabbed Li Dao's clothes, and said, "Say it again!" ”

Li Wei looked at Dong Zhuo's eyes, which were like copper bells, and trembled involuntarily: "Huh...... Prime Minister...... I...... Our soldiers were wounded...... More than 54,000 people were killed or wounded, including more than 2,000 minor and serious injuries......"

Dong Zhuo pushed down Li Dao fiercely, and was about to draw his sword to kill, Li Ru was busy persuading on the side: "Xiangye is angry, this is not a crime of war, only blame Liu Zhang for exterminating humanity...... In this battle, General Li personally risked the arrows and stones, rushed to kill in the most line, and was loyal to Xiangye, and asked Xiangye to read General Li's previous achievements, spare this time, and let General Li make meritorious service with guilt......"

Li Wei also hurriedly knelt on the ground, crying and said, "Xiangye spares his life...... The last general has tried his best, but he blames Liu Zhang'er for being inhumane and using this desperate plan...... Please give the last general a chance, and next time he will be ashamed and kill this thief for Xiangye! He begged for mercy in his mouth, but he was quite unconvinced in his heart, and secretly thought: "What does this matter to me?" You are on the front line to command, and you can't do anything, how can you blame me? ”

Guo Yan, Yang Feng, and Li Le also interceded for Li Dao on the side, and they all knew that Li Dao was no wonder in this battle, but Dong Zhuo was completely enraged by the huge losses, and Li Dao could be said to be a disaster.

was persuaded by everyone, Dong Zhuo slowly calmed down, and finally Li Dao was fined for a year. In fact, since Dong Zhuo hijacked Emperor Xian and moved the capital to Chang'an, these people under his command have not issued a penny, and some people with power are okay to say, especially military power, just find a place to fight the autumn breeze and have daily expenses, so the high-ranking Li Dao is naturally not afraid of being punished, because there is no punishment at all!
