Chapter 320: Fierce Battle!

After seeing this scene, Yizhou Taishou's relaxed expression before gradually became a little dignified. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info He didn't expect the Shannan West Dao Jiedu Envoy to come up with such a trick. Look at the situation that is gradually being pulled back by them. Yizhou Taishou frowned slightly: It's not okay to go on like this! The advantages that have been accumulated with great difficulty before cannot be wasted just because of this sentence of the Shannan West Dao Jiedu envoy.

You have to find a way to boost morale! Thinking of this, Yizhou Taishou immediately shouted, "Brothers, they are only the last wave of counterattacks now." As long as we defeat it, the entire land of Shannan and Xidao will be ours! ā€

Sure enough, I heard the words of this Yizhou Taishou. The soldiers who had already had the intention of retreating suddenly regained their vitality one by one, roaring and rushing back at their opponents.

After a few moments, the two sides on the battlefield fought together like raging beasts, without any regard for tactics. Moreover, because the people and horses on both sides have been completely mixed, the archers in their respective rears can only watch in place in a daze at this time, not knowing how to shoot arrows or not, they can't even ignore their own people!

Soon, only one archer rushed out of the ranks, threw his bow and arrows at his side, drew his sword and rushed towards the chaotic warband. Seeing this scene, the archers on both sides almost unanimously threw away their bows and arrows, then pulled out the swords at their waists, and rushed towards the battle group with a roar.

Seeing that these archers also rushed into the battlefield, Lu Chen, who had been hiding in the distance, showed a sneer. He had previously feared that the bows and arrows might launch a counterattack in the event of a surprise attack. After all, the range of the bow and arrow is also more than a hundred steps.

But now that these archers have rushed into the battle group, the last threat to Lu Chen has been eliminated. Thinking of this, Lu Chen's heart was full of gratitude to the archer who took the lead in rushing to the battlefield, there are still many good people in the world!

At this time, the fierce battle on the battlefield has completely entered the white heat. Both sides have begun to fight hard, even if their weapons are knocked out by their opponents, they do not hesitate to pounce on their opponents. Even after their legs were cut off, they still crawled on the ground and slashed at their opponents. There are also some who hold on tightly to their opponents until they die and refuse to let go. Even the battle between the beasts of the forest is nothing more than that.

In the midst of such fierce battles, the death toll on both sides has skyrocketed. Lu Chen and the others looked at the battlefield from the barren mountain, but saw that the ground was almost covered with stumps and broken remains, and even in the center of the battlefield, a large number of corpses had appeared.

According to the information obtained by Lu Chen before, at least 34,000 people from both sides participated in this battle. However, now there are more than 10,000 corpses on the ground alone. Such a tragic situation is rare even in the history of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, in a normal battle, as long as one side's battle line is broken, the vast majority of soldiers will flee. Even if there are some stalemate battles, most of them are fought by both sides, and there will be no such large casualties at all.

However, such a tragic battle is beneficial and harmless to Lu Chen. The more powerful these two forces killed each other, the easier it would be to destroy them when Lu Chen and them made a move.

While Lu Chen was thinking, General Zhang walked from behind him and asked with some confusion, "Master Lu, I don't know when we will attack?" Now that the battle between these people has reached a fever pitch, we can definitely catch them off guard as long as we attack quickly. At that time, we will rush into the battlefield and fight, and we will definitely be able to return with a great victory! ā€

After hearing General Zhang's words, he saw Lu Chen smile slightly, and said, "General Zhang, don't worry, their battle won't be won or lost for a while." So, we just have to wait and see what happens."

Hearing this, General Zhang just nodded and didn't say anything. After all, now Lu Chen is the nominal commander-in-chief, although Lu Chen let him control these 10,000 elite soldiers, but he did not dare to disobey Lu Chen's orders, and the two generals were not in harmony on the battlefield, but it was taboo to use soldiers to fight.

As the battle progressed, the number of dead on the battlefield at this time had far exceeded 20,000. There were more corpses all over the ground than there were soldiers on both sides who were fighting fiercely at this time.

But even so, neither side of the fierce battle had any intention of retreating. After all, this decisive battle meant too much to both of them.

If Shannan Xidao Jiedu wins, then he can reverse the current disadvantage in one fell swoop, force Yizhou Taishou back to Yizhou in one go, and maybe even directly drive Yizhou Taishou out of his territory.

And if Yizhou is too victorious, then the Shannan West Daojie Du envoy will lose the strength to compete with it. At that time, Yizhou Taishou only needs to lead the army to occupy this vast land in the south of the mountain little by little. Even if the Shannan Xidao Jiedu envoy still occupies one or two cities, he has completely lost the strength to compete with them. When it really comes, Yizhou Taishou only needs to send a force to surround the city of Shannan Xidao Jiedu. It won't take long for the city to fall apart.

Therefore, in the eyes of the two, the ownership of the land of Shannan depends on today's decisive battle. Therefore, even if they know that they will run out of troops, they are likely to be coveted by other forces. However, at this time, the two of them couldn't care so much. Compared to this decisive battle, the future events seem insignificant.

As the fighting continued, the stalemate finally changed. Although all the people of Shannan and Xidao Jiedu envoys fought desperately. But after all, the forces of the two sides are not equal, therefore, after this war of attrition. Excluding those soldiers who escaped in battle, there were only more than 2,000 people left at this time. On the other hand, there are at least more than 10,000 people under the hands of Yizhou Taishou.

Seeing this scene, Shannan Xidao Jie Du clenched his fists, and his face was full of unwillingness. He knew that after this decisive battle, he would have no strength to compete with Yizhou Taishou anymore.

But despite this, the Shannan West Road Festival Envoy is still a little unwilling. Immediately shouted in a deep voice: "Everyone retreat!" "After all, he still controls several big cities, and if he can hold off this attack by Yizhou Taishou, he still has a chance.

Hearing this order, the two thousand soldiers who were fighting with red eyes all turned around and ran to the rear with a loud roar. These people are all soldiers who are absolutely loyal to the Shannan West Dao Jiedu, after all, those who have different intentions have already run away before.

Seeing that the Shannan West Dao Jiedu envoy wanted to escape, Yizhou Taishou immediately waved his hand and shouted, "Brothers, the opportunity to dominate the land of Shannan is in front of you, rush!" ā€
