At this moment, the mountain stones rolled down, the sword rain flew, and countless rolling wood and rocks fell down the hillside, directly smashing towards the 50,000 ironclad horsemen who were running forward.

Bang!

A boulder smashed on the head of a cavalryman, and the soldier didn't even have time to scream, and flew out in an instant, his life and death unknown.

Puff!!

Arrows rained down in the Changchun Valley, and although the cavalry charged quickly and there was nothing to stop them, the soldiers were still hit hard, and they died one by one, almost all of them died under the rain of swords and boulders.

The commander of the army was well aware of the situation at the moment, but he did not panic: "Brothers, speed up and rush out of the valley, as long as we get out of this valley, we will be safe, rush." ”

The Iron Rider Army is like a gust of wind, although it cannot be resisted, but the speed has not slowed down, on the contrary, it is getting faster and faster.

About half an hour later, the commander of the army led the remaining 30,000 iron horsemen to the other side of the valley.

After some efforts, the Northern Capital Army finally rushed out, but the losses were not small, almost half of the 50,000 people were lost, and the enemy, not a single one died!

Judging from the number of casualties, it seems that the Northern Capital has suffered a great military defeat, but everyone knows that the fact is that on the contrary, although Zhang Heng successfully sniped more than 20,000 cavalry of the Northern Capital Army, he was unable to stop the original hundreds of thousands of troops, so he still failed to complete the task assigned to him by Yang Mingyue.

The fact is that although the Northern Capital Army suffered heavy losses, it rushed out of the valley and could go to attack Yang Mingyue, which was considered a victory; And Zhang Hengjun, although he killed more than 20,000 enemies, but the task was not completed, and he was defeated.

Sometimes, it is not about the success or failure of the dead soldiers, but about the overall situation!

................

Imperial capital.

The battle report from the front was sent to Wang Xu.

Looking at the battle report in his hand, Wang Xu looked slightly happy.

"Yang Mingyue finally couldn't help but do it, okay."

Zhang Meng said on the side: "Your Majesty, is there any good news?" ”

Wang Xu threw the battle report aside, came to his seat and sat down: "Good news, it's not even now." However, I believe that sooner or later there will be good news, so there is no need to rush. ”

"Yang Mingyue, that old fox, actually led the army to face me head-on. At present, the two sides are fighting outside the Changchun Valley, and it has been a day, and the battle is in full swing. ”

Wang Xu looked at Zhang Meng: "Zhang Meng, Sun Yu and Yang Mingyue, who will win?" You estimate. ”

Zhang Meng laughed and said, "Then it doesn't need to be said." Of course it's us, how can those rats in Dongjun be General Sun's opponent, Your Majesty rest assured, five days at most, three days at least, good news will definitely come! ”

"That's what I thought, too."

Wang Xu smiled slightly.

"The battle report from Qingyuan County hasn't come yet?"

Wang Xu looked at Zhang Rong, who was standing on the right, and asked.

Zhang Rong thought for a while: "Back to Your Majesty, not yet." ”

"Well, you pay attention. If you have a battle report, give it to me immediately. ”

"No."

.......

Cheongwon-gun.

In the lobby.

All the high-ranking officials had gathered, it was late at night, and the high-ranking siege force had just retreated.

Zheng Feng looked at everyone and frowned, "Where is the rescue?" ”

"General Yu, General Li Zhi personally led 50,000 elites to come, but his march to Xiqiao was blocked by high-ranking ambushes; In addition, the generals Qiancang and Zheng Li led an army of 300,000 to come, although they also marched quickly. But it takes half a month to get here. ”

An adjutant replied.

Half-moon!

Zheng Feng took a deep breath, half a month, I'm afraid that Qingyuan County will be lost by then!

Every mistake. Zheng Feng couldn't hold it!

It's not Zheng Feng's fault, it's not that she's incompetent, but the attack of Gao Quan is too fierce, almost every day, tons of miscellaneous medicine are taken out to bombard the city wall, if it is bombed for a few more days, I'm afraid the city will be crushed. At that time, there will be no fighting, and the holy army will be defeated!

In the face of 500,000 Nandu troops, if it was a field battle, Zheng Feng was still very jealous, because the troops in his hands were less than 50,000 now.

50,000 people, how can you beat 500,000 people?

"Gao Quan, this old boy, there are endless miscellaneous medicines, and he has been bombarded for so many days, and there are still ones, he is really rich."

Zheng Feng said.

"We shouldn't have sold the method of making explosives to Nandu in the first place, if he didn't have miscellaneous drugs, even if he came another 500,000, we wouldn't be afraid, hey..."

In the lobby, someone said suddenly.

As soon as the man finished speaking, everyone nodded, and that was indeed the case.

"Shut up, this is His Majesty's decision!"

Zheng Feng didn't stop.

The generals pursed their lips and said nothing.

Zheng Feng got up and looked at the map: "We can't hold it, we can hold it for three days at most, and by then, the city wall will be smashed, so..." ”

Speaking of this, Zheng Feng raised his eyes to look at the burned everyone, and said slowly: "If I order the withdrawal of troops now, what do you think?" ”

Withdrawal!

The Holy Dynasty army has not been beaten and withdrawn in embarrassment, except for the defeat of Lei Yan, almost every time it is a big victory, as soon as these words came out, the generals were surprised, and they didn't dare to imagine that these words came out of Zheng Feng's mouth, because in the morning, Zheng Feng was still talking about fighting to the death with the enemy, but now...

"The withdrawal of the army is also a helpless move, if you don't withdraw, you have to wait for death, if Li Zhizhi arrives within three days, I can stay and fight, but he is blocked by the high-power army, without the arrival of reinforcements, Qingyuan County will be lost!"

In fact, the generals in the hall had long wanted to withdraw, but they were afraid of Zheng Feng, so they didn't dare to say it, if they didn't do it well, they would be charged with disturbing the morale of the army.

.........

The junction of the border between Qingyuan County and Guxi County.

After marching hundreds of miles for several days, Qiancang and Zheng Li led the army to stop and allowed to rest for one night before leaving.

However, as soon as the two of them set up their tents, they received a battle report from the front, and the content of the battle report made the two indignant.

"What do you say. Withdrawn? ”

Zheng Li suddenly got up and looked at Qiancang Dao.

Qiancang held the battle report in his hand, threw it to Zheng Li casually, and said: "Look for yourself, Zheng Feng took the initiative to withdraw from Qingyuan County, and now that Qingyuan County has been lost, Li Zhi has received this news and has led the army back." ”

"It's a pity, it's a pity, if she can hold out for another ten days, when we arrive, the high-ranking old man will be defeated!"

Zheng Li punched the table again and said fiercely.

After thinking about it, Zheng Li reacted and suddenly asked, "Why didn't it be written in this battle report where Zheng Feng is now?" Don't? ”

Zheng Li faintly felt that something was wrong, Gao Quan had an army of 500,000, Zheng Feng lost the city wall, how could he be his opponent, maybe he had already been poisoned.

Qiancang came to the map and looked at it, and then said with a smile: "You don't have to guess, I estimate that Zheng Feng's kid must have evacuated to the west now, he wants to enter the Yangtze River, and then go down the river and return to the imperial capital from Guxi County." ”

"Hey... General Zheng is a hero, and this is a disgrace. ”

Qiancang felt sad for Zheng Feng, indeed, Zheng Feng has never lost a battle since he joined the Holy Dynasty to work for Wang Xu, how many winds and waves have passed, but now, he actually capsized in a small river ditch, and was beaten by Gao Quan and had no power to fight back, no matter what the reason, hundreds of thousands of elites couldn't even defend a county town, and they were lost after only a few days, which had never happened in the history of the Holy Dynasty.
