Chapter 314: The Great Breaking of the Khitan
Although I didn't want to believe it in my heart, but the reinforcements of the Tang army were really coming, this army was led by Guo Yuanzhen, the deputy head of the Hebei Provincial March, and there were Liu Youqiu, who had defected to Li Xian and was recommended to join the army, as well as Li Xiandonggong's generals Zhang Deyu, the captain of the guard, Zhang Wei, the general of the guard, Sun Fei, the general of the Yiwei Lang, Zheng Jin and others.

These people were supposed to go to battle with Li Xian, but because Li Xian was afraid that the combat strength of Guo Yuanzhen's generals would be too weak, he wrote a special book and ordered them to stay by Guo Yuanzhen's side to serve.
Guo Yuanzhen's temperament is also very upright, and he did not let them lead the troops because of Li Xian's recommendation, but only after his own personal inspection was he appointed, and even so, these people were all awarded a team of more than 1,000 people, and all of them became the heads of the soldiers who outflanked and besieged the Khitans.
After receiving Guo Yuanzhen's military order, these people were worried about Li Xian's safety, and they all struggled to whip their mounts, wanting to rush to the battlefield as soon as possible to rescue their most respected prince Li Xian, and by the way, slaughter those hateful Khitans.
"Kill!" After these generals came to the battlefield, they immediately surrounded the Khitans according to the plan, and after Guo Yuanzhen gave the order, they all couldn't wait to lead the army to kill them.
If these people are talking about force, Liu Youqiu is relatively weaker, but the other few are warriors who have followed Li Xian and experienced the test of iron and blood on the battlefield, so as soon as they came up, they were like tigers descending from the mountain, leading the elite soldiers beside them to kill those Khitan soldiers who had not made any preparations at all.
Although the Khitans had already set up a defensive formation before, the defensive formation was only used against Li Xian's army surrounded by them, so it was only aimed at Li Xian's generals, and for their rear, because they were convinced that it was impossible for the Tang army to come to reinforcements, it was almost useless.
After learning that the Tang army was surrounded on a large scale, although Li Jinzhong immediately ordered to deploy defenses behind him, but because of the urgency of time, where was there time? Therefore, in such a situation, it is almost equivalent to the Khitans, who were completely defenseless, and immediately suffered a crazy massacre by the Tang reinforcements.
The number of these Khitans was already small, and their morale had dropped seriously after fighting with Li Xian's troops for many days, while the Tang army was full of morale and murderous spirit, so there was no suspense at all about their being slaughtered.
At this time, an even deeper disaster came, that is, in the middle of their encirclement, Li Xianbu, who had been besieged by them before, and looked like lambs waiting to be slaughtered, suddenly had a high morale and shouted loudly to launch a counterattack.
The combat effectiveness of Li Xian's soldiers was far superior to that of the Khitans, and they suddenly got reinforcements, and their morale soared, although the number was relatively small, but under the onslaught of the other party, the Khitans could not resist at all.
So the two armies of the Tang Dynasty joined forces inside and outside, like a huge winch, and the more than 70,000 Khitan people were constantly strangled.
So, in the Khitan barracks, there was a wail everywhere, those Khitan people who cried their fathers and called their mothers, and only hated their parents for having two legs, could only desperately flee in all directions, without any resistance at all, but they were shocked to find that no matter which direction they ran, they were all killed by the Tang army, and there was no way out at all.
In this process, the Khitans themselves trampled on each other and killed each other in order to compete for roads, resulting in nearly 20,000 people dying in a daze.
"Kill!" Li Xian led the elites under his command, and took the lead in slaughtering the Khitans, although the two-edged spear in his hand was eighty catties, but in his hands it was like nothing, and it looked like an ordinary spear, but this weapon was able to be used as a spear, and it could be used as a super weapon with a sledgehammer, which made all the Khitan soldiers who dared to block it were easily killed by Li Xian, some were stabbed to death by the tip of the two-edged spear, and some were even more unlucky, and they were directly stoned to death by the two-edged spear, Under this smash, the bones were suddenly shattered, and the brains flowed all over the ground, this scene was really a bit miserable.
Looking at Li Xian, who is like a god descending from the earth, the Khitan people are like mice who have met cats, and they have scattered to hide, even if they die, they don't want to die in the hands of such a killing god, die in the hands of others, at least the head can be complete, but die in the hands of this person, I am afraid that others don't even know who they are when they collect the corpse, even if no one collects the corpse, when they die in the future, they come to the underworld, I don't know how ugly that image should be?
At this time, the Khitans had long since lost any will to resist, seeing that there was no hope of escape, they knelt down and surrendered, even if they were really killed by the Tang Army in the future, at least they could survive at this moment, as long as they could live a little longer than others, it would be extremely satisfying for them.
For those who want to surrender, Li Xian naturally accepted it unceremoniously, in fact, Li Xian is not an unreasonable person, although he has also done a lot of things to kill prisoners of war, but most of those prisoners of war are people who have committed heinous crimes, such as those prisoners of war who were killed when they fought against Tubo, mainly because they had participated in the massacre of the city and slaughtered many unarmed civilians, as well as the thousands of Khitan prisoners of war that were killed before, it was also because they slaughtered civilians, and now these Khitan soldiers surrendered to him, He didn't commit too much evil deeds, and Li Xian couldn't be slaughtered, not to mention that Li Xian was also confident that after this battle, the Khitan's ability to fight was almost exhausted, and women and children would also be given to meritorious generals.
What's more, Li Xian now has a plan for voyages and expeditions, and in this plan, too many Tang people cannot be used, so that people like the Khitan who have lost the country have become the best choice, and Li Xian is not afraid that they will rebel in the future, because Li Xian believes that the terrible shadow caused by this war makes them dare not have the slightest disrespect for the Tang Dynasty for at least a hundred years, let alone dare to resist.
This battle can be described as a shocking cry of ghosts and gods, Li Quanzhong's 100,000 elites were all annihilated by the Tang army, and there were not even a few thousand people who could escape by chance, seeing that his own general trend had gone, Li Quanzhong couldn't help but be furious, and led hundreds of people under his command to rush straight towards Li Xian, although this time his own side was defeated, he did not intend to let Li Xian go, in vain to kill Li Xian at all costs.
