Approaching two miles south of the prisoner of war camp, the mountains and forests in the north were already on fire, and the killing was extremely fierce, and the combat effectiveness was by no means ordinary fierce, and Bai Liyan even suspected that the iron who was fighting with the Jin Xuedi people must be the elite of the elite.

"Pass the order, the whole army will attack, and you will not be allowed to make a sound when you approach quietly!"

"No!"

Most of the defenders have been transferred to the north camp for fortification, and the three battalions in the southeast, east and west are relatively empty. Bailiyan's 4,000 people attacked and killed the southern camp, and the heavy troops attacked a little, and the defenders of the southern camp were caught off guard under the surprise attack, and Bailiyan quickly broke through the southern camp and entered the camp.

"Quick, blow our battle horn!"

"No!"

The old pawn took out the battle horn and blew the horn of the Xian army, at this time Gongliangwen led the army into a bitter battle in the north and could not extricate himself, and the sound of killing in the south was together, and when he heard the news that it was the battle horn of the Xian army, Gongliangwen's heart was also shocked:

"Song'er, listen, isn't it the battle call of the Xian Army?"

"Shhh...... Exactly, it is the battle number of the Xian army, strange, there are Xian people here! ”

"Could it be, it's him!"

Gongliangwen suddenly realized, and Gongliangsong hurriedly asked:

"Father, who is it?"

"Baili Yan!"

"Why, did he flee south here?"

When the father and son were surprised, the prisoner of war camp was already in chaos, and tens of thousands of prisoners of war were surging, picking up weapons, sticks, and even hard ice cubes with snow on the ground, regardless of casualties and sacrifices, venting their anger with blood and anger.

The Honor Regiment fell into the front and rear attacks of the enemy in an instant, and the Baili Yan created momentum, and the morale of the remnants of Gongliangwen was greatly boosted, and they continued to assault south.

At the same time, Bailiyan struggled to attack northward, and finally at dawn and dusk, he took the lead in breaking through the defense line from the southeast and rushing into the formation.

After fierce fighting until dawn, the rearguard of the Honor Regiment was cut into two sections from east to west, with about 20,000 men on the west side quickly retreating westward, while the Jinxuedi people on the east side retreated eastward, leaving behind corpses and wounded soldiers, as well as a large amount of plundered wealth and booty, and fled the battlefield in panic.

Bailiyan sent an old pawn to contact Zhijun, and Gongliangwen, Gongliangsong, Gongliangxiu, father, son, uncle and nephew came in rags, already unkempt, and couldn't see any human form:

"Haha, Gongziyan, it's really you!"

"General Gongliang, don't come unharmed." Baili Yan gave a slight salute, and the long-lost etiquette suddenly made the mood much happier.

"Hehaha......" Gongliangwen smiled happily: "I really didn't expect that you and my army would still be able to meet each other alive." ”

"I really didn't expect that thousands of miles away, I would still be able to see you. Last night I wanted to take the prisoners, but I almost failed because of the accident, but I never expected the general to lead the army to arrive, which was really a blessing in disguise. I don't know how many men and horses the general brought here, how did he wander here? ”

"Alas...... It's hard to put into words...... There were more than 19,000 people on this southward journey, but more than 4,000 died of starvation and freezing on the way. I really didn't expect that I had just thrown off the pursuers, and last night I broke into the range of the barbarian army in a panic, and I was found by them and could not escape, so I had to fight to the death. ”

According to Gongliangwen, after the loss of Mingzhou, the Jin Xuedi people besieged Bo Yin, and the imperial marshal Cao Chi Zheng ordered him and Tao Yong to go to the aid of Bo Yin, but rushed to Bo Yin, Bo Yang had already fallen, and Yuecheng had already been lost, Tao Yong and Gong Liangwen had to fight out of the siege and go to Zicheng.

On the way to Zicheng, he encountered the rout of Feiyun City, only then did he know that Feiyun City, the camp of the central guard, had also been lost, and before the capture of Feiyun City, Jin Xuedi had crossed Feiyun City in advance, surrounded the northeast of Zicheng, and galloped Botao City in the southeast of the city, and Botao was lost, and the back road of Zicheng would be cut off.

Tao Yong decided to lead his troops to save Botao City first, and Gongliangwen did not object. Botao is north of Zicheng, and Zicheng is blocked to the south, so the strategic location is safer.

So Gong Liangwen led his army to the aid of Bo Tao and repelled the besieging Jin Xuedi people. As a result, the Jin Xuedi people raised a large army to besiege Zicheng, and Tao Yong and Gongliangwen had to go to Zicheng again.

Zicheng fought two battles before and after, one win and one loss, but the casualties of the coalition army were much heavier, the Zhi army went through three battles, the casualties were great, and the offensive of the Jin Xuedi people was unabated, and they broke through Dunping, Bitian, and Wang Lu one after another.

Since the beginning of the war, the total number of people who have fallen has reached more than 1.5 million, which is even worse than the situation after the fall of Yesui, and it is almost a catastrophic blow since the beginning of history.

At this time, Cao Chi was determined to take advantage of the fact that the main force of the Jin Xuedi people was concentrated on the west side, trying to recover Bo Yang first, and then recover Yuecheng, cutting off the forces on the east and west sides of the Jin Xuedi people.

But it backfired, the Black Turban Army defeated the main force of the Xu Army, and the soldiers came to the capital of Sun State, and hit the border of Liang State, threatening the local security of Weiguo and the Xihai countries.

Cao Chi did not know that half of the reinforcements were retreating north, but still launched a campaign according to the established plan, resulting in a serious shortage of troops after recovering Bo Yang and Yuecheng, and the logistics support could not keep up.

At this time, the Jin army that recovered Boyang withdrew before the Zhi army and other princes' armies who recovered Yuecheng, which eventually led to the Jin Xuedi people arriving in front of Boyang before the Gongliang Wensuo, capturing Boyang and cutting off its northward retreat.

Tao Yong and Gongliangwen had 150,000 or 60,000 troops at that time, together with the remnants of the princes' army and more than 200,000 wounded, and the action was slow, Jin Xuedi 500,000 people approached it from all sides, Tao Yong led the army to attack north, but the Jin army ran too fast, the Zhi army could not catch up at all, and the two armies could not join forces.

The Zhi army just jumped out of the encirclement, and was caught up by the Jin Xuedi cavalry, forced into a decisive battle, the result of a big defeat, Tao Yong, Gongliangwen led the troops to break through to the north, in the chaos of the army Gongliangwen to the north to break through failed, had to break through to the west, all the way by the Jin Xuedi people fled to Xiaochi, Xiaochi has been occupied by the Jin Xuedi people at this time, but simply God helped.

At that time, it was the end of spring, and the Jin Xuedi people were herding horses nearby, and the Zhijun marched more than 80 miles a day, and 80 miles a day on the plateau, which was basically fatal. After getting the Jin Xuedi war horse in Xiaochi, Gong Liangwen tried to flee north again, but was blocked by the Jin Xuedi cavalry halfway, and was chased to the southwest Nordson Pass after the defeat.

At this time, the army of Jinxuedi was all heading north, and the camp at Nordson Pass had been abandoned. Gongliangwen led his troops to flee into the Nordson Pass, and thus began the road of fleeing south.

Compared with the more than 100,000 barbarian troops who chased and killed all the way when Bailiyan could not escape, when Gongliangwen led the army south, there were more than 17,000 Zhi troops, and more than 5,000 remnants of Qi, Chen, Yan, and Zhao.

The reason is that the Nordson Mountain Road is narrow, the troops cannot be deployed, and the remnants of Gongliangwen have run out of food and began to kill horses for meat, and the Jinxuedi people are blocked at the north exit of the Nordson Pass, and Gongliangwen can only go south out of the valley, and this road will take more than ten days to complete in summer, and the Zhijun will have already starved to death in the mountain valley.

But people are not as good as heaven, and Jin Xuedi people never dreamed that Gongliangwen bumped into a large number of plateau rock sheep that gathered and bred in spring and summer in the valley.

Originally, it was impossible to catch the plateau rock sheep climbing on the rocks by manpower, but the Zhijun was still equipped with a crossbow to the sky, and under the cover of several waves, the rock sheep climbing on the top of the mountain sent the meat to Gongliangwen's mouth, and finally killed all the wild animals and accompanying horses along the way, and more than 23,000 people were lucky enough to get out of the Nordson Valley.

The reason why it is said to be a fluke is that it suffered heavy rain four days before leaving the valley, and there was a flash flood and mudslide on the section of the road that I had walked two days ago, and the section of the road that was dozens of miles long suffered a landslide, completely cutting off the passage to the north. After that, the Jinxuedi people entered the valley and swept away, mistakenly believing that the remnants of Gongliang had died under the mudslide

Soon after leaving the Nordson Valley, the grain and grass ran out again, and more than 23,000 people were starved and their combat strength plummeted, and they were unable to launch an attack on Tianquan, so they were forced to march in concealment to collect wild barley and hunt for food.

Tianquan is located in the southwesternmost part of the southern border, and the surrounding altitude is extremely high. The way to retreat north has been cut off at this time, and the number of sick people in the remnants of Gongliangwen is increasing day by day, and the only way out is to find a low-altitude area to recuperate as soon as possible.

Wenxia Pond is a hot spring in the south of Tianquan, the altitude is very low, suitable for recuperation, and the surrounding vegetation is flourishing, and there are often deer herds haunting. On the way to Wenxiachi, more than 1,000 people died of illness and starvation, and then went south from Wenxiachi all the way to Meiyao.

Not long after Meiyao stayed, the army of Jinxuedi people who went north to reinforce passed through two hundred miles east of Meiyao, Gongliangwen mistakenly thought that it was a barbarian army chasing and killing it, and continued to flee to the southeast with men and horses in a panic, and only relied on hunting and gathering to survive along the way, and thousands of people died of starvation and disease.

It is worth mentioning that Gongliangwen went south all the way to the west route, and also forced himself all the way to the shore of Heigill Lake, but the difference was that he encountered the resistance of the people of the Central Plains.

After the Black Cheek Lake was attacked by Baili Yan before, in order to prevent the Central Plains descendants from rebelling, Kabias dispatched a thousand defenders and 3,000 domesticated Fan people to go to the Black Cheek Lake to cut wood. Gongliangwen led the army to find that these "Central Plains people" who were scattered in capes not only did not help him, but helped the Jin Xuedi people, and they didn't speak the Central Plains dialect, so they were all killed in a fit of rage.

After getting the grain and grass of Blackgill Lake, Gongliangwen continued to wander south, and the journey was quite smooth, and he did not encounter the original situation of Bailiyan. Until a few days ago, Lu Gao got rid of a construction site in the north, provoked the Jin Xuedi people, and went north to collect and discover the whereabouts of Gongliangwen.

Gongliang Wen explained in detail that the sky was already dawning at this time, and the situation in the prisoner of war camp was much worse than expected, with more than 10,000 sick people, and more than 5,000 casualties in the sudden battle last night, more than 4,000 casualties in the Gongliang Ministry of Culture and Culture, and 2,000 casualties in Bailiyan, and 20,000 people in the first place.

On the other hand, the honor regiment, those who were caught, those who were killed in battle, and those who were wounded, were less than 8,000 people, and the combat effectiveness of its main regiment was far from being comparable to that of the second- and third-rate security regiments.
