The setting sun hovers over the western horizon, burning itself, illuminating the world with its last residual warmth.

The sky was no longer as clear and clear as it had been during the day, but it was gradually graying, and even the clouds were dyed the golden yellow of the sunset.

A soldier lay on the ground pitted by the horse's hooves, surrounded by corpses strewn with broken flags and upside-down halberds.

One of them was stuck under his ribs.

His legs were crushed by the horses, so he could not move, so he could only wait for death like this.

The blood on the loess was seeping into the dirt and turning a dark black-red, and his life was gradually passing away.

In the twilight, the light grew darker and darker, as if the sky had turned blood-red.

I'm the last person in the village, and if I die, everyone in the village will die.

All he could see was the sky, and the shadow in the sky was the family and brothers who had died in the war?

I feel so tired that I want to close my eyes, but I still want to see more of the world.

Who are you? Are you here to save me?

But you can't save me, it's getting dark, and I'm here to accompany you.

Liu Xiu gently closed his eyes with his hand, stood up, and put the sword into its scabbard.

In the slanting sun, in the gale, there was blood and minced flesh, blades and corpses, wails and crows, some of which were not even dead while pecking

of the people.

Due to the limited and backward medical conditions, it is impossible to treat all the people in time, and by nightfall, 90 percent of these people will die.

Purgatory on earth, this is the essence of war.

Whether it is Wang Mang, Liu Xuan, Zhu Kun, the red eyebrows or the bronze horse, or even the eldest brother and himself, no one can, no one is qualified, and no one can be responsible for the war.

Whether it is a war to maintain royal power, whether it is a war to eliminate dissidents, whether it is a war against tyranny, whether it is a war against foreigners, no matter what the reason for the war, it will eventually cause countless lives to be destroyed, and those who die in the war will die forever, never to be resurrected, never to return.

It's like a sister。。。。。。

The only thing he could do was to finish him off as soon as possible, Liu Xiu thought to himself.

Most of the defeated Wang Xun army retreated into the formation of the Wang Yi army, the Wang Yi army was solemn and did not move, they were so arranged, they could not catch up with the cavalry, rather than showing flaws, it was better to wait for the opportunity, find an opportunity to fight head-on, do not fight in time, Kunyang has been besieged for a long time, and the Han army is in a hurry.

"Mingjin retreats!". Seeing that it is getting late, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, it is better to accept it when it is good.

Wang Yi's personality Liu Xiu had already understood in the previous life, this person was cautious and cautious, coupled with the huge number of enemy troops, even the camp was hundreds of miles, and it took a long time for the military order to be transmitted, plus it was impossible to act rashly and defeat Wang Xun's vanguard cavalry troops, and he could temporarily ensure his safety for a while.

Just listening to the "Qiang Qiang Qiang", the piercing sound of the golden gong sounded, the battle flags flew on the command platform, and the Han troops of Liu Yan and Liu Xiu gradually stopped the pursuit and turned around and returned to the camp in an orderly manner.

Liu Xiu commanded the logistics troops to clean up the battlefield, collect weapons, armor, saddles, etc., which could still be used, stepped on the war horse, and returned to the camp of the Chungling army.

Liu Xiu arrived first, and saw that only Deng Yu arrived first.

He asked, "Haven't the Green Forest Army come yet?" ”

Deng Yu said: "It's supposed to be here, I have sent scouts to invite me several times, but there is no response." ”

At this moment, there was a sound of iron pieces of armor colliding. Liu Yan also stepped into the account, only to see that he was covered in blood, and there were many knife marks on the iron frame, and after entering the account, he directly threw the helmet aside, and laughed loudly: "Wang Xunxiaoer, but that's it." "Heroic, obviously personally charged into the battle, and the results were not cheap.

Liu Yan also asked, "Have the reinforcements arrived?" ”

Deng Yu said: "I haven't arrived." ”

Liu Yan said loudly: "What happened? ”

He turned his head to the deputy general Liu Ji and said, "Go and urge Li Yi to come back." ”

"Yes."

Liu Xiu smiled at this time and said to Liu Yan: "Big brother, don't worry, I guess this battle is over, Li Yi will come back soon, wait a while." ”

Liu Yan said: "Then wait a while, first gather all the ministries and count the number of people!" ”

The generals were hotly discussed, Fu Jun boasted about how brave he was, and cut off the heads of several enemy generals, Zhao Xi listened quietly on the side and echoed from time to time, Zhu You sarcastically mocked Fu Jun from time to time, saying that he only had the courage of a horseman, Ma Wu laughed more than once, Deng Yu summarized the battle situation and analyzed the advantages and disadvantages.

This battle almost annihilated three-quarters of the enemy's troops, captured a large amount of equipment, with the most cavalry equipment, including a large number of horse armor, which is extremely rare, the previous equipment of the Han army mainly relied on the support of the Nanyang nobles, and the casting capacity resources were limited, and things like horse armor were not on the agenda. The large number of horse armor captured this time can be used to prepare for the future upgrade of cavalry strength.

Liu Yanbu's annihilation of 5,000 enemies, Liu Xiubu's annihilation of 3,000 enemies, all the generals had no casualties, compared with Liu Yanbu's fierce battles, Liu Xiubu's losses were very few, only more than 100 soldiers

soldiers, and most of them are infantry, which is an extremely high battle loss ratio.

Liu Yan praised Liu Xiu's command and bravery, and the generals also expressed their admiration for Liu Xiu's command.

It was when all the generals were happily discussing their military exploits and telling their heroic deeds that the attendants came to report that Li Yi was back.

I saw Li Yi trotting all the way into the account.
