Although the men and horses under the command of the thunderstorm struggled to break through the encirclement set up by the fangs and merge with the people who came to reinforce them, they still found it difficult to escape from the fangs' hands.

After the encirclement set up by the fangmen was broken, they quickly readjusted their deployment and once again surrounded the men and horses under the command of Thunderstorm.

"General, there are too many fangs and horses, it is difficult for our army to retreat with all their bodies, here is handed over to the last general, the general should leave quickly with his own soldiers!" A small school said loudly.

Thunderstorm naturally did not want to flee alone, and shouted: "Shut up, all the soldiers will kill the enemy with me and protect the people from leaving." ”

"Folks, you guys go quickly, it's up to the general here." The thunderstorm shouted to the people who came to the rescue.

"General, if you don't leave, we won't leave, we will die together." The old villagers loudly expressed their stance and said that they would advance and retreat together with the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Knowing that these people were bloody men and that he couldn't get rid of them, Thunderstorm couldn't help but sigh with emotion in his heart, and he looked up at the sides of the valley and found that more and more fangs were killing him.

At this moment, if the thunderstorm escapes alone, there is still a great hope of success, and if he flees with his soldiers and people, there is no possibility of escaping at all.

Whether to escape alone and make a comeback, or die with the soldiers, are the two choices faced by Thunderstorm, there is no doubt that Thunderstorm will naturally not abandon his subordinates to escape alone, he chose to fight with his subordinates, even if he is broken, he has no regrets.

"Soldiers, move closer to the general and fight with the fangs." Thunderstorm let out a loud shout and let his men move closer to him. In order to cover each other and make the men and horses under their command exert greater combat effectiveness.

Under the order of the thunderstorm, the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the people who came to reinforce all approached the thunderstorm, ready to gather together and make a final fight with the fangs.

More than 10,000 fangs had gathered and besieged the men and horses under the command of Thunderstorm and the common people who had come to reinforce them, and they immediately launched a fierce attack.

The Northern Expeditionary Army and the common people gathered together and covered each other. Fought to the death with the frantically attacking fangs. The blood dyed the grass at the mouth of the valley red, and countless corpses were piled up here, including the soldiers of the Northern Expeditionary Army and the people of Shuzhong. Of course. There are also many corpses of fangs.

At this time, Taniguchi is like a meat grinder. It's devouring fresh life.

Watching the soldiers beside him fall one by one, the thunderstorm was slightly deflated, and he was careless for a while. actually fell into the way of the fangman, and he killed the soldiers under his command.

At this time, the thunderstorm was already stained red with blood, and even the bearded face was smeared with a layer of blood, and the eyes were even more bloodthirsty red.

"Soldiers, this is where we are buried, kill ......" Thunderstorm gritted his teeth and roared, slashing the fangs beside him even more bravely.

"Kill, kill, kill, kill ......" At this time, the soldiers and ordinary people of the Northern Expeditionary Army, as well as the encircled fangs, were all red-eyed, and no one had the intention of admitting defeat, and the fighting between the two sides had entered a white-hot stage.

"Lord, look, it's really a fang, there are more than 10,000 people and horses, and those who are surrounded in the center must be our soldiers and horses." At this moment, the vanguard of Li Yi's army, the three thousand soldiers led by the army lord Li Liang, arrived here after hearing the news.

It turned out that when Li Yi led the army through Luocheng, he took Li Liang with him and asked him to lead 3,000 soldiers and horses to be the vanguard of the army and march towards Fucheng.

Li Liang led the army on the way to Fucheng, happened to meet the people along the way, learned that the fangs in the mountains to plague the people, Li Liang, who was eager to make meritorious contributions, felt that this was an opportunity, so he led his army of 3,000 into the woods, and arrived at the dock fort after a bloody battle.

Seeing the bodies of dozens of villagers hanging from trees, Li Liang was furious, so he led the army to chase the direction of the fang's escape along the traces left in the woods, so he discovered the scene in front of him.

"Commander, there are more than 10,000 soldiers and horses in the fangs, and our strength is insufficient, what should we do, fight or not." One of his subordinates asked Li Liang for instructions.

Li Liang frowned, looked at the front of the fierce battle, and ordered: "The front is surrounded by our soldiers and horses, as well as many people, how can we not save them, the whole army is immediately ready for battle." ”

"Lord, there are too many fangs and horses, our army rushes over so rashly, if it fails, the consequence will be the same as them, surrounded by fangs! Is there a better way. One of his subordinates advised.

Li Liang nodded and said: "You're right, three thousand men and horses can't scare the fangs, our army must create the momentum of more than 10,000 soldiers and horses to be able to shock the fangs, you two, each with a hundred men and horses, bring war drums and flags to the left and right sides, beat the drums and wave the flag to be suspicious soldiers, and the rest will kill the fangs with me." ”

"Yes, Master." The two teams were leading the order, each leading a hundred men and horses under their command, to the left and right flanks to act as suspicious soldiers.

Seeing that the left and right sides were ready, Li Liang raised the weapons in his hands and shouted loudly: "Soldiers, follow me to kill the fangs, rush!" After speaking, he led the three thousand soldiers and horses under his command and killed more than 10,000 fangs in front.

Since the fangren's energy was all concentrated on the thunderstorm in the encirclement, they were unprepared for the sudden appearance of Li Liang's army on the periphery.

Under the impact of the 3,000 army under Li Liang's command, the encirclement of the fangs was immediately torn open, and hundreds of fangs were killed at the mouth of the valley.

"General, reinforcements are coming, reinforcements are coming." Seeing the 3,000 army under Li Liang coming, a junior colonel under the command of Thunderstorm roared excitedly.

The thunderstorm was in full swing, and when he heard the word reinforcements, he was shocked, and hurriedly looked up in the direction of the woods, and sure enough, he found an army of thousands of men and horses approaching, and kept killing the fangmen and horses who intended to get closer.

"Soldiers, the reinforcements of our army have arrived, follow me out of the encirclement, kill the ......" Thunderstorm shouted, and took the lead in killing forward, he knew that as soon as the reinforcements came, one of his small lives was saved.

The two soldiers and horses should be combined outside, and soon the encirclement arranged by the fangs was completely torn apart, and the two soldiers and horses also converged together.

Seeing that the Jin army had reinforcements, the fangs were shocked, and they had already killed the red-eyed fangs, preparing to organize the soldiers and horses again to surround the Jin soldiers and horses in front of them.

"Knock knock, knock knock......" was here, and in the depths of the dense forest, there was a deafening sound of war drums.

Fang people could hear that this was the drumbeat of the Jin army's military horses' attack, and they couldn't help but be surprised, and then looked up to see that there were a large number of flags fluttering in the wind in the depths of the dense forest, which seemed to prove that there were still a large number of Jin military horses hidden in the dense forest.

Seeing this situation, the fangs were completely afraid, they knew that their weapons were not as good as the Jin army, and they could only win by virtue of superior forces, and now, a large number of people and horses of the Jin army were killed, if they fell in love with the war again, they were afraid that they would suffer a big loss, so they immediately issued a code to retreat.

After hearing the code, more than 10,000 fangs immediately retreated backwards and quickly disengaged from the Jin army.

"Kill, hunt down the fangs." Thunderstorm, who had already killed Red-Eye, gave the order to pursue.

"General Lei, don't chase after the poor." Li Liang hurriedly stopped.

When the thunderstorm heard this, he shouted excitedly: "Master Li, now that the main force of our army has arrived, why don't you teach the fangs a good lesson, keeping this group of beasts will only harm the people." ”

Li Liang hurriedly clenched his fists and explained: "General Lei, our army only has 3,000 men and horses, and the strength is far weaker than the fangs, it is useless to chase them, so let's return to Fucheng as soon as possible!" ”

Thunderstorm calmed down for a moment, smiled, and praised: "Master Li, good job, you have learned to use suspicious tactics, even Lao Tzu has been deceived by you, haha!" Today you saved Ben Jiang's life, Ben Jiang will not forget jì, thank you. ”

Li Liang nodded and said, "General Lei has won the award, let's leave quickly!" This is not a place to stay for long. ”

"Okay, let's go back to Fucheng." Thunderstorm said and led the remaining 300 cavalry and more than 100 people to return to the road from which they came.

When arriving at the location of the dock fort, Thunderstorm looked at the more than 100 people behind him, and said loudly: "Folks, you are all good, in this battle, the fangs have lost more than a thousand soldiers and horses, they will definitely come back to retaliate against you, it is too unsafe here, you clean up, and go to Fucheng with Ben to avoid it!" ”

"General, our ancestors have lived here for generations, and even if we die, we don't want to leave our hometown." The old people opened their mouths and refused.

Seeing this, Li Liang persuaded: "Folks, Fucheng is not far from here, just let you leave your hometown for a while, and when our army has eliminated the fangren, you can still return to your hometown." ”

"General, we're leaving, what about these houses, if the fangs set fire to our house, then where will we live when we come back in the future, we will stay to protect the house, General, thank you for coming to the rescue, you go quickly!" The common people seem to be very stubborn, and they would rather not die for the sake of a house.

Seeing that these people were reluctant to go, Thunderstorm had to let it go, and left a few soldiers stationed here, once he found that the fangs were attacking, he immediately sent a signal to Fucheng, and he would be the first to lead the main army to reinforcements.

Thunderstorm and Li Liang's soldiers and horses marched in the direction of Fucheng, while the people of the dock fort stayed behind to dispose of the corpses of the dead villagers, and prepared various materials to strengthen the temporary dock fort in case the fangs came again.

In this battle, due to the momentary negligence of the thunderstorm, the cavalry of the Northern Expeditionary Army lost a full 700 men and horses, which was a huge loss for the entire Northern Expeditionary Army.

For this fiasco, Thunderstorm did not want to hide it, and after he returned to Fucheng, he immediately wrote a letter of guilt to Hua'an, indicating that the army suffered losses due to his negligence, and at the same time, he also praised Li Liang in the letter and asked for credit for Li Liang.

######

In the direction of Luocheng, the men and horses under the command of Hua'an were resting in the city, and in the evening, all the soldiers and horses had set up camp, and most of the soldiers returned to the camp to rest after dinner. (To be continued......)
