At this time, whether it was the footsteps of the Liangzhou army slowly advancing, or the slow and long drumming behind them, it had already brought huge psychological pressure to the dazed Zhao army foot soldiers who gathered at the mouth of the valley and did not know what their fate was.

The previous battle was unfavorable, and the soldiers of Zhao were already exhausted. They also did not have any firm belief and good feelings about Liu Zhao, the Xiongnu who controlled and enslaved them. Therefore, from the middle and lower rank generals to the ordinary soldiers, they are all fighting here by themselves, and what is the reason for this, and there is a big unanswerable question mark in their hearts.

However, the Liangzhou soldiers who were approaching step by step reminded them that if they didn't fight hard, then they themselves would have to bury their bones here.

After figuring out this section, the generals at all levels in the formation agitated their lips and tongues, trying to boost the morale of their subordinates, in order to defeat the Liangzhou army in front of them. In their cognition, if they can defeat this Liangzhou army, then they will be able to have no obstacles here.

In fact, most of them are not wrong. Defeat the Liangzhou army in front of you. With the abundant strength of the Zhao army, it is completely possible to leave a small number of troops to monitor the defenders of Jincheng after defeating this Liangzhou army, and then cross the big river, break through the camp on the north bank of Jincheng, and then drive straight forward, which is Guangwu, which is the Liangzhou Prefecture Guzang.

It's just that this grand wish is destined to be unfulfilled. The Liangzhou army approaching in front of him is an elite division that is almost unconsumed, whether it is equipped with weapons, or the fighting spirit of the soldiers, or logistics supply, it is the elite division of the best choice.

Based on the current situation of the Zhao army's foot soldiers, how many victories can be won or lost when encountering this elite division?

Han Ning saw that the army was fully prepared, so he beat the drum with both hands, and began to grow from the previous leisurely and long, to a tight sound. The elite of Liangzhou under his command heard the familiar sound of drums, and everyone held weapons and shields in their hands, and entered a tense state of battle.

With Han Ning's lieutenant general Ling Qi pointing forward, and Han Ning's drumstick in his hand beating the war drum in front of him as if it were beating tightly, the drums were almost connected, and the Liangzhou army finally put on a charging formation, and then with the sound of military drums and the strict orders of the generals, they waved their weapons and shields in their hands, and rushed towards the Zhao army, whose morale had fallen to the bottom.

However, with a distance of more than 100 steps, less than half a pillar of incense, the elite infantry in the front row of the Liangzhou Army had already rushed to the front, and then collided with the stubborn Zhao army at the valley mouth.

The 2,000-strong soldiers led by Han Ning were also members of the elite troops directly under Liangzhou, and many of them had participated in several military operations in Liangzhou to support the central government of Chang'an at the end of the Western Jin Dynasty.

Therefore, the combat effectiveness of this elite state government is almost undoubted, not to mention that they are waiting for work at ease to meet the Zhao army's foot soldiers who have been exhausted by the remnants of Longxi and their morale and strength.

As soon as the battle was received, the infantry of the Liangzhou army had already relied on a bloody and brave spirit and abundant physical strength to kill the Han soldiers in the Zhao army one after another, and carved out many breakthroughs on the exhausted defense line of the Zhao army. The soldiers of the Zhao army, who were cut down by the soldiers of Liangzhou, abandoned their weapons and fell to the ground. The dead all had round eyes and a look of disbelief, and those who were not about to die still fell on the ground where Taniguchi had a mountain of corpses and groaned.

The sharp soldiers in the front row of the Liangzhou Army were expressionless, just kept repeating the action of blocking-slashing-blocking-slashing. They are full of energy and physical strength, and they are not as powerless as Zhao Jun at this time. Hundreds of people stepped forward with swords and shields, repeating the action monotonously. Sergeant Zhao tried his best to resist the counter-killing. However, for them who are exhausted, it can only be a futile effort.

Han Ning stood on the ox cart, his eyes scanning the battlefield at the mouth of the valley, the soldiers on both sides were slaughtered together, although his own soldiers almost had the advantage, and the exhausted Zhao soldiers were suppressed so that they couldn't raise their heads. However, from Han Ning's point of view, he still saw that many of his soldiers were fighting and were cut to the ground by Zhao soldiers.

Han Ning looked at it, and his mood became more and more urgent, most of the people in this army were elite armor soldiers who had been in battle for a long time, and the loss of each of them was an irreparable loss in Han Ning's eyes. I was anxious, and the rhythm of the drumming became more and more urgent.

Hearing Han Ning's increasingly urgent drums from the direction of the Chinese army, the Liangzhou soldiers who were fighting in front tried their best to quickly open a breakthrough for their own side, so that they could quickly tear through the defense line of the Zhao army, and then quickly defeat the vanguard of the Zhao army in front of them.

The Zhao army's infantry soldiers were still unable to annihilate the remnants of Longxi under the previous long-term attack, which had dealt a great blow to their morale, and they had just suffered several rounds of arrow rain baptism from the Liangzhou soldiers, and the collapse of the Qiang warriors in the front row had brought a devastating blow to the morale of the Zhao army.

Now, in the face of the offensive of the Liangzhou soldiers, this Zhao army is gradually showing no support. The Liangzhou soldiers advanced step by step, forcing the Zhao soldiers to retreat from time to time. If there are those who stick to the spot and resist stubbornly, it will often not be long before they will be cut down to the ground by the swarming Liangzhou soldiers.

As a new force, the Liangzhou Chinese Army did not endure a long fight. At this time, he was only engaged in the battle, whether it was a soldier or a general, his physical strength was abundant, and he naturally had a huge advantage in fighting with these exhausted Zhao army foot soldiers who had been fighting with Longxi soldiers for a long time.

Han Ning was still standing on the ox cart and struggling to beat the drum in front of him. The movements in his hands became more and more urgent, and the Liangzhou soldiers who were in a mess with the Zhao army in front of them also rushed forward bravely when they heard the sound of the trumpets and drums, and the rear team heard the trumpets and drums, and they also struggled to rush towards the valley mouth where the two sides were fighting. In less than a stick of incense, the Liangzhou soldiers at the mouth of the valley have already formed an absolute superiority in strength and combat power against the Zhao army that is stubbornly resisting.

The Liangzhou soldiers marched forward bravely, and the Qiang warriors in the front row of the Zhao army were the first to waver, and they all fled to the rear desperately howling despite the obstruction of the Han soldiers with swords and shields behind them. These tribal warriors had no discipline in the first place, and at this time, in the face of the expressionless slaughter of the Liangzhou soldiers, their spirits were hovering on the verge of collapse, and they were finally unable to support it until this time.

The shield-wielding Han Chinese behind them tried desperately to resist their onslaught, but most of it was in vain. The remnants of the Qiang warriors were full of fear, struggling to squeeze away from these temporary Tongze, and then shouted and fled to the rear, which was greeted by the ruthless cold blades of the Huns.

The general of the Zhao army, who led the Hun cavalry to suppress the formation, had no concept of pity in his heart, he led his troops to kill these incompetent deserters neatly, and personally cut off the head of a howling Qiang warrior, the general of the Zhao army rode on his horse, surrounded by the elite cavalry of his subordinates, while wiping the blade of the long knife in his hand, while looking up at the rest of the Zhao army foot soldiers who were still at the mouth of the valley.

The foot soldiers of the Zhao army, who were still at the mouth of the valley, were all afraid when they saw the appearance of the winner. The action of the Hun lord to kill the fugitive soldiers was undoubtedly forcing them to fight to the death. However, in the face of the attack of the Liangzhou army, which was superior in numbers and full of physical strength, although these Zhao soldiers and soldiers were desperately resisting, they were still fighting. However, its decline is becoming more and more obvious.

Soon, the remaining soldiers of the Zhao army, mainly Han foot soldiers, also began to shake under the overwhelming strength of the Liangzhou army. The left flank, which had just been attacked by Li Yanzhao and lost its troops as a result, was the first to waver. Many of the soldiers fled to the rear. However, it was not long before they were killed by the Hun cavalry in the rear.

Although the action of the Xiongnu general to kill the fugitive soldiers shocked the morale of the army in a short period of time and forced these soldiers to turn around and fight to the death, when the offensive of the Liangzhou soldiers became stronger and stronger, the chain reaction caused by this move became more and more serious.

As Han Ning continued to beat, the sound of trumpets and drums that had almost become a single piece, even the crossbowmen in the Chinese army formation also picked up the crossbow machine one after another, and then pulled out the ring head knife at his waist and rushed towards the Zhao army at the mouth of the valley. The addition of this new force finally became the last straw that crushed Zhao Jun's stubborn will to resist.

Seeing that there were more and more Liangzhou troops fighting hard at Gukou, the Hun cavalry had already retreated dozens of steps to the rear. However, it was their retreat at this time that made the Zhao army infantry in Gukou feel that there was little hope, so the Han infantry who were still in the rear before they could fight with the Liangzhou army fled to the rear one by one and left the battlefield.

However, as the offensive of the Liangzhou army became more and more fierce, pressing step by step, so that when the stubborn Zhao army soldiers in Taniguchi were divided and surrounded, the Zhao army finally ushered in a collapse. Bands of soldiers began to emerge discarding their weapons and fleeing. Later, several hundred-man teams that had not yet been entangled by the Liangzhou army also fled to the rear under the leadership of their respective generals.

Seeing that the general situation had gone, the Hun generals had to reluctantly order the 800 Hun cavalry under their subordinates to turn their horses and retreat back to the road they had come. The retreat of the Xiongnu generals further announced the complete defeat of the Zhao army in this battle.

Seeing that the winner general had left, the robes of the brigade in the rear fled one after another, and at this time, the Zhao army generals who were still entangled by the Liangzhou army or divided and surrounded all let out a desperate and unwilling howl. However, they were still holding knives and resisting, but they were killed by the Liangzhou army one after another.

Seeing that there was no hope, many Zhao soldiers in the back row dropped their weapons one after another and gathered together to show their surrender. The resistance in front of the Liangzhou army instantly became much weaker. However, the generals of the Liangzhou army walked towards them with expressionless faces, and then stabbed them one by one without mercy, and the Zhao generals who were willing to surrender were also killed.

The battle was nearing the end, and the battlefield was densely packed with the corpses of the dead soldiers of the two armies under the feet and behind the Liangzhou soldiers who were still advancing. Some of them have round eyes, some have unwilling, and some have faces full of fear. However, at this moment, they all fell to the ground, becoming a symbol and witness of this tragic battlefield.

Among the layers of corpses, the severed hand holding the knife, the upside-down spear, the broken military flag, the still struggling after falling to the ground, or the lifeless war horse, and the dense feathered arrows on the corpses, all tell the tragedy of the battle fought at the mouth of the valley. Blood-colored streams still flowed out of these layers of corpses, dyeing the entire valley mouth a dazzling dark red.

Han Ning of the Chinese army has put down the drumsticks. He had been beating the drum for too long, and he felt that his arm was sore. However, at this time, in the face of the results of the first victory, he was also proud in his heart.

Although Li Yanzhao did not listen to his greetings and led the troops to attack without authorization, he was annoyed. However, the results achieved at this time were completely gratifying to him. After he himself broke away from the command of his uncle Han Pu, it was the first time he led his troops to attack, and he won such a great victory, which made him extremely excited and at the same time, he also felt that he was worthy of those famous generals who went down in history.

As for Li Yanzhao, who did not obey the order and attacked without authorization, Han Ning had already made up his mind. When he turned around, he was given a merit to offset his merits, and let him also taste the bitterness of not obeying military orders and attacking without authorization. [.]
