Yan Xing took his surviving tribes and hid in the river reeds, his foot soldiers opened the way in front, and his successors waded through the water with difficulty. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 It was extremely difficult to find the direction in the vast reeds, and everyone who was fleeing for their lives had no time to think about it, so they could only judge based on the sound of the battlefield behind them, and stay as far away from the frontal battlefield as possible.

At this time, on the battlefield that was gradually moving away behind him, the situation of the two warring sides was already very clear, the Han army was advancing and attacking together, and the Liangzhou coalition army was defeated like a mountain, and it was out of control.

Not long after Yan Xing led people to sneak into the river, the soldiers and horses on the left flank were broken through from behind by the Chinese iron cavalry of the Han army, and Wang Fan, who was stubbornly resistant, was directly hit by the unstoppable armored cavalry and flew out and cut off his head.

The left flank soldiers and horses that were wrapped in dumplings were leaderless, and the army that was originally crumbling collapsed directly, turning a blind eye to the oncoming Han army with swords and spears, and threw off their armor and ran towards the battlefield, while the Han army followed closely behind and killed one rebel soldier after another.

The banner of the Chinese kingdom has also been toppled, and under the enemy on all sides, the Chinese army, which has invaded the deepest Han front, has been isolated, and the men and horses who are deeply encircled have been killed and wounded. Only Ma Teng, who also had an eye before the war, saw the opportunity in advance, and rushed out of the rear gap with a small number of remnants before the Han army encircled, and broke away from the bloody frontal battlefield, while the other horses disappeared with the nowhere of the kingdom of the general of the United People, and they all died or surrendered, and all perished in this place.

Only the right wing of the coalition army was the first to leave the battlefield, although it was pursued by the Han cavalry, but Han Sui was well arranged, relying on the number of his cavalry more than the Han army, and quickly repelled and got rid of the entanglement of the Han cavalry, and then the whole army discarded a large number of banners, baggage, goods, etc., and traveled lightly.

Taking advantage of the time of stubborn resistance of the Chinese army and the left flank, the right flank men and horses, under the command of Han Sui, turned around at full speed and retreated to Yulu, Wangxian and other cities that were still controlled by the Liangzhou coalition army. In addition to the Han army, in addition to a cavalry to pursue the right wing of the coalition army that retreated slowly, other soldiers and horses have been thrown into the encirclement and pursuit of the coalition army and the left wing of the coalition army, which is already at the end of the road.

The Han general's dispatch was aimed at concentrating forces to annihilate the main force of the rebels, but it also gave Han Sui's soldiers and horses a chance to escape. And the low-level Han soldiers and soldiers fought bloody battles with the fierce Liangzhou rebels, for the sake of the first-level military merits, and now the rebels' central army and left-wing men and horses have collapsed, it is a good time to beat the water dogs and chase the north, no one is willing to let go of the military merits in hand, but to gnaw the hard bones that will break their teeth.

The retreating right-wing men and horses of the rebels, who continued to pursue and retained their strength and might turn around and counterattack at any time, seemed to the Han army to be a deal that outweighed the losses. So under the symbolic pursuit of the Han cavalry, Han Sui took his right flank of men and horses to get rid of the entanglement of the Han army without danger.

By noon, the one-sided killing on the battlefield had stopped, and the captured rebel soldiers were taken into custody. In addition to the Han army sent out to hunt down deserters and stay on guard on the battlefield, the other Han troops were divided into small teams to harvest the heads and clean up the battlefield on the field full of corpses, and most of the goods obtained by the rebels who had worked hard for more than half a year were discarded on the field, which made the victorious Han soldiers earn a lot of money, and the battlefield sounded from time to time The satisfied cheers of the Han soldiers when they collected the goods.

In addition to the generals of the Han army who had not returned from chasing and killing the enemy, the other generals proudly brought the heads of the beheaded rebels and the captured treasures to ask for credit for themselves and the soldiers and horses under their command. Huangfu Song, who was in the Chinese army, had also dismounted at this time, and sat in the pergola temporarily built by his subordinates, listening carefully to the reports of the generals under his command, and the staff and civil officials who followed him also hurriedly unfolded the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, and began to record the heads and seizures reported by the generals in the pergola, which was a temporary military office site, and recorded them in their respective account books, so as to prepare for the personal inspection and performance of the commander-in-chief in the future.

There were already more than a dozen bloody and blurred human heads in front of Huangfu Song, these were the heads of the rebel leaders brought up by various generals after being killed, although several of them were said to be the heads of the thief kingdom, but after being identified by several rebel prisoners who surrendered, it was confirmed that this was not the kingdom itself. And Huangfu Song was not annoyed when he learned about it, after all, in the midst of the chaos, it was not easy to cut off the flag and take off the head of the rebel leader, and now he had completely annihilated most of the main force of the rebel army, and he was no longer demanding in some things, so as not to chill the hearts of the soldiers who fought bloodily.

As his subordinates reported the battle reports one by one, Huangfu Song also had a general understanding of this battle in his heart. He used nearly 30,000 inferior soldiers and horses to chase and kill the main force of the retreating 670,000 rebels, strategizing and winning more with less, beheading more than 15,000, capturing more than 20,000, and killing and wounding only 4,000 of his own Han soldiers and horses, which can be described as a complete victory. After this battle, the Liangzhou rebels can be said to have suffered a great injury, except for a small number of people who escaped, the other elites have all folded here, and they no longer have the ability to threaten Sanfu, even if the retreating Han Sui's soldiers and horses return to Liangzhou, it is difficult to support them alone, and it will be difficult to make waves in a short time.

Huangfu Song, who had been working hard for days and planning the military situation, finally smiled and stroked his long beard, and after the big victory, he was the same as the soldiers at the bottom, and the haze accumulated before the war was swept away in his heart, replaced by the post-war hesitation.

He walked out of the pergola briskly, raised his left hand to block the dazzling light, and looked at the momentum of the Han soldiers after the victory, although the battlefield killing has stopped, but from afar you can feel the bloody and murderous spirit of the soldiers in the field. The rebel soldiers who were guarded in batches did not have the fierceness and blood they had before, and they now looked unkempt and listless after losing the battle and becoming prisoners of the Han army, just like the tenants who cultivated the fields and the herdsmen who chased herds in the north, but Huangfu Song would not be easily deceived by their dejected appearance, and he knew that if these remnants of the defeated army were not properly handled, sooner or later it would be another Qiang rebellion that affected Sanfu.

"Where the teacher is, thorns are born. After the great army, there will be a fierce year! ”

Faced with the battlefield full of corpses after the war, Huangfu Song, who won the side, couldn't help but feel emotional, sighed a few words, and when he turned back, he had resumed the wartime killing decision.

He walked back to the pergola, looked at the many generals under his command and said in a deep voice:

"Although the main force of the rebels has been ambushed, there is still a little remnant of abuse to take advantage of the chaos to scatter everywhere, in order to prevent this generation from poisoning Sanfu again, order, all departments in the army immediately send men and horses to sweep away the remaining thieves, if there is a stubborn resistance and does not surrender, kill them!"
