Five thousand cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army came like a tide with Zhao Xun's cover, and every Xiaoguo Army soldier straightened his body, raised the long knife in his hand, and made a chopping motion.

"Boom ......"

The cavalry formation of five thousand cavalry carried a strong inertia, like a monstrous wave, covering the sky and covering the sky, and in an instant the poor guard army formation was submerged, and thousands of sharp long knives were ruthlessly cut down, drawing thousands of strange arcs in the air.

On the city!

"Someone, give an order, the cavalry in the city is assembled, kill me out!" Han Meng looked at the siege soldiers who were retreating in a panic and shouted coldly.

A moment later, after a "creaking" sound, the east gate of Lincheng, which the guards had not been able to attack for a long time, was finally opened.

"Kill! Brothers, it's time to fight back! Han Meng rode out first, and then two thousand iron horsemen shouted to kill the retreating guards.

Zhao Xun shot out, and the huge shield of the heavy infantry was suddenly torn apart, and the big iron spear of dozens of catties was not easy to resist, and the chest cavity of the heavy infantry was suddenly pierced by his own giant shield, and he fell to the ground. Forced to pull up the line of defense, Zhao Xun tore a small opening, and then expanded. It's like a dam bursting, collapsing in an instant.

Hu Yi turned around abruptly, looked around blankly, and saw that the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army was like a wolf entering a flock of sheep, and launched a merciless slaughter of the guards and soldiers on the entire battlefield.

When Han Meng's 2,000 cavalry came out of the city, the 7,000 cavalry suddenly formed a front and rear attack on the more than 7,000 guards and foot soldiers, encircling them on all sides.

"Those who descend will not be killed! Those who descend will not be killed! ”

Zhao Xun stood up with a spear and shouted loudly. Although these are enemy troops, they are also veterans who have been tested by the fire of war, and it is a pity to kill them, besides, it is good to be able to collect them for their own use and use them to resist the north.

Gradually, some of the guards threw down their weapons and knelt on the ground to surrender, for these soldiers, the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army naturally spared their lives, let them return to one place, and waited for them to fall.

"General, the front line is no longer stable, and the Xiaoguo army has now surrounded us, and we can't resist it." A general said to Hu Yi worriedly.

"General, the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army in Lincheng City has also been killed, and the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army in the rear has formed a situation of encirclement on all sides. And our brothers have been hungry for hours, and now they are all sleepy and tired, and they are almost unable to stand it. General, withdraw! ”

"Withdraw, where to withdraw? The front and back are all cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army, and they can't retreat to the sky. Besides, except for our cavalry, which is less than 300 people, the rest are all foot soldiers, how can we retreat? Hu Yi glared at him without a good face, the general who shouted to withdraw, he knew that this so-called withdrawal was actually an escape.

The general was glared at, and suddenly he was silent, and he suddenly woke up, even if he left his subordinates and fled, then he had to escape, three hundred people, against seven thousand cavalry, one person spat at the mouthful, and drowned them. Besides, the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army are all one man and two horses, and there is no fatigue, how can they escape.

Fear of death is an instinct that a normal person should have, and it's nothing. But now, even if I want to, I can't run.

"Order, let the whole army rally to me!" After a while, Hu Yi shouted coldly.

A strange phenomenon was formed on the battlefield, the guards and soldiers gathered in the middle, and the Xiaoguo army only drove away, not pursued. If you want to escape, you will be waiting for a rain of arrows. Gradually, the Xiaoguo army began to run in circles around the guards, and the guards began to gather together.

In the end, the cavalry of the Xiaoguo Army formed four cavalry phalanxes, located in the four directions of the assembled guards, forming an encirclement trend.

Soon, the infantry and young men in the city went out of the city to assist, first took care of the more than 1,000 guards who had surrendered, and then, together with the cavalry, trapped the guards in the middle.

The guards did not try to break through to the outside, but under the cavalry and the rain of arrows from the infantry, they fell one after another, and then the cavalry forcibly broke and drove the soldiers back who broke through.

After going back and forth three or four times, the guards finally understood that they were now caged birds and turtles in urns.

Zhao Xun rode forward, a stone's throw away from the guards, looked at the scarred and exhausted guards, and said in a deep voice: "I am Zhao Xun of the Xiaoguo Army, let your main general come out to talk!" ”

In the middle of the night, Hu Yi rode his horse slowly out and appeared in the forefront of the guards.

"I am Hu Yi, the chief general of the guard, and I have seen the governor of Zhao!"

Zhao Xun smiled faintly and said, "Governor Zhao? Ha ha...... But I remember that you all called me a traitor when you first went there, and now why are you the governor again? The Guards are not as strong as I imagined. ”

"Zhao Xun! Don't think that because you have the upper hand, you can come and humiliate us! Hu Yi said angrily.

"Humiliating you? You think too highly of yourself, recognize your current situation, Pontus does not kill you now, it does not mean that you cannot be killed! In a word, descend or die! Thousands of people here, as well as nearly 10,000 people in Pingshou City, their lives are in your hands. If you don't want your family to be in vain, then let your people lay down their arms and surrender. If you don't want to, then you can only end it with blood. Zhao Xun said lightly.

"Don't think! Our guards are all iron-blooded men, and they will never surrender! Hu Yi opened his beard and shouted angrily.

Zhao Xun laughed and said, "Yes, what are those?" As he spoke, he pointed to the more than 1,000 surrendered soldiers on the other side. Then he said: "You can only represent yourself, and if you are willing to die, it does not mean that your subordinates will follow you to die." They have families, they also have parents, wives and children, descend or die, give you a stick of incense time to consider! ”

Zhao Xun's voice was very loud, and on the silent battlefield, the guards and soldiers heard it very clearly, whether to surrender or not, they would face a choice. Zhao Xun said very clearly, they all have parents, wives and children, who wants to die if they can live?

Seeing his subordinates talking about it, Hu Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly, after Zhao Xun said this, the only fighting spirit of his subordinates was completely gone. Fight to the death? It's easy to say, even if you defeat and escape, what can you do? It's not that I'm trapped in the city, without food or drink, waiting to starve to death.

"What do you think?" Back in the Chinese army, Hu Yi asked lightly.

No one spoke for a while, and fell into a cold field. After a while, Captain Tongguo said: "General, now we only have more than 4,000 people here, all of them have been hungry all day, and they have been fighting hard for a few hours, and now they are ......."

Needless to say, his meaning is clear at a glance, and that is surrender. Can there be other endings in this kind of mortal battle?

Someone started, and naturally someone answered, and several lieutenants outside the two sides also said bluntly, in this case, there is no hope of breaking through, so it is better to surrender.

Of course, there are also people who oppose it, the two armies have suffered countless casualties in the battle, not to mention that last night's battle wiped out 10,000 guards and cavalry, how can they surrender the Xiaoguo army again? How can you be worthy of your dead brother?

"My lord! Time's up! Wei Dong whispered.

"Go, ask, to descend or not to descend?" Zhao Xun said coldly. Willing to accept the other party does not mean that he has unlimited concessions!

Wei Dong rode a few horses and shouted: "Listen to the guards on the other side, it's time for a stick of incense." Most of the governors of my family asked you and others, would you like to surrender or not! ”

For a long time, no one answered!

"Wei Dong, come back! Since you are unwilling to surrender, then answer with a sword and spear! ”

"Cavalry ready!" Zhao Xun raised his spear and shouted loudly. The herald behind Zhao Xun immediately waved a small pennant.

"Woo woo woo ......"

The muffled sound of the horn sounded again, and the seniors straightened up and began to slowly gather, drawing their weapons in their hands, preparing to launch a siege. The infantry sergeants also raised their swords, spears, and bows, ready to assist the cavalry in the attack.

"The attack has begun! General, it's time to make a decision, whether to surrender or fight, a clear decision is needed! The first lieutenant said in a deep voice.

Hu Yi looked at the tired and hungry soldiers around him, and said hatefully: "Raise the white flag, it's down!" ”

"Raise the white flag! It's down! The guards beside Hu Yi shouted loudly.

"My lord! The Guards are flying the white flag! They are willing to descend! ”

"Hmph...... It's really a shame! Send the order down, let them go out in a line, call me out with weapons, and anyone who carries weapons without permission will be killed! Zhao Xun said coldly.

"General Hu Yi, meet the Grand Duke!" Hu Yi appeared in front of Zhao Xun with five or six lieutenants under him.

"Excuse me! Casualties on the battlefield are inevitable, and from now on, you and my Xiaoguo army will be together, and I don't want internal fights to occur. Zhao Xun said in a deep voice.

"Metropolitan Governor, the general wants to ask, how does the Metropolitan Governor deal with us and other soldiers." Hu Yi asked in a deep voice.

"Those who are willing to serve my Xiaoguo army and are qualified will be treated as Xiaoguo soldiers and soldiers. Those who are unwilling or unqualified will be given travel expenses and sent home. Do you still have questions? ”

Hu Yi said: "The last general is gone!" ”

Zhao inquired: "Okay, the guards and soldiers of Pingshou City will be handed over to you to deal with." Can you persuade you to surrender? I don't want the guards to starve to death in the city. I don't want them to starve to death with tens of thousands of people in Pingshou City! ”

Hu Yi knew the situation in Pingshou City, and said, "The last general is willing to go and persuade him to surrender!" After all, the people are innocent! "Originally, Pingshou City was nothing, but suddenly more than 10,000 soldiers and thousands of war horses poured in, and people ate horses and chewed horses, which suddenly made the burden in the city bigger. In addition, attacking back and forth and closing the city gates made it inconvenient for materials to enter and exit, and suddenly the people in the city became hungry. Speaking of which, this is still the sin created by the guards.

Under Hu Yi's personal attack, the 6,000 guards of Pingshou City surrendered the city, surrendered to Zhao Xun, and were conquered by Zhao Xun.

At the end of May, the guards of Langya Mansion were first defeated and then surrendered, more than 30,000 soldiers no longer existed, and the southern guards disappeared completely.
