Roaring at the soldiers on both sides who were fighting, Duan Xuan glanced at the group of Xiliang soldiers closest to him, held the long sword in both hands, and slashed down the neck of Li Le's corpse.

With a stream of red-black plasma gushing out, Li Le's head was cut off by Duan Xuan's sword, and his huge head rolled a few times like a ball before stopping a step or two away from the corpse.

Bending down to pick up the bloodstained head, Duan Xuan raised the head high and shouted to the Xiliang army present: "Li Le disregards the life and death of the soldiers, and intends to be the enemy of the King of Luoyang, and this general has already killed him!" If the army wants to live, immediately put down their swords and join the general to serve the king of Luoyang! ”

Half of the Xiliang officers and soldiers who were fighting around the Luoyang army were originally Duan Xuan's troops, and when Duan Xuan shouted, these Xiliang soldiers retreated one after another, threw their blades on the ground, and soon the weapons were piled up into a hill.

The Xiliang Army, which was originally under Li Le's command, did not immediately put down their blades, but held their weapons tightly one by one, looking at the heads of people who were carried by Duan Xuan in his hands with a frightened expression.

"Roar!" Just when Li Le's Xiliang army didn't know how to choose, there was a roar from the east side of the barracks, and tens of thousands of troops from Guan Qing's department had advanced to the edge of the barracks.

Although the Luoyang army led by Guan Hai had suffered a lot of casualties after a hard fight, all the Luoyang troops standing on the battlefield were stained with thick blood stains, but the eyes of each of them were as sharp as a blade. was stared at by their eyes, and the Xiliang Army, which belonged to Li Le, only felt a chill down their spines one by one.

The Luoyang army that killed the barracks was eyeing it, and Guan Hai, who led this Luoyang army, was even more fierce so that the officers and soldiers of Xiliang remembered the scene of fighting with him, and they couldn't help trembling.

Duan Xuan, who was still fighting side by side with Li Le's Xiliang Army, has now put down his weapons and sworn allegiance to the King of Luoyang. The soldiers of the Xiliang Army under Li Le's command knew very well in their hearts that at this time, as long as they dared to refuse Duan Xuan, I was afraid that the former Tongze, who had already put down his weapons, would pick up the blade again. However, these Tongze will not rush towards the Luoyang army, but will not hesitate to follow Duan Xuan to kill them.

In the barracks, the Xiliang Army under Li Le's command had already taken advantage of the disadvantage, and the roars coming from the east of the barracks and the huge footsteps of tens of thousands of people as they advanced made them even more desperate.

"Li Le has already been punished!" Seeing that Li Le's Xiliang army was still a little hesitant and did not put down his blade, Duan Xuan lifted his head a little more, and shouted to them: "The soldiers have no worries, Luoyang Wang Rende will not embarrass the soldiers!" The soldiers who served the king of Luoyang early are now paid and eaten with the Luoyang army, and the soldiers can ask them, with such generous treatment, who will work for the rebellious ministers and thieves who rebelled against the court? ”

"The general spares his life! The general spares his life! Duan Xuan's words fell, and as soon as some of the officers and soldiers of Xiliang under Li Le's department threw their weapons on the ground, they were pushed to the ground by an officer, and the already frightened urine flowed down their thighs, and Chen Xi'er, who was damp on the ground, struggled to raise his head and shouted at Duan Xuan: "The villain is willing to serve the king of Luoyang......"

"Shut up!" Before Chen Xi'er's words were finished, Duan Xuan suddenly turned around, raised his sword and pointed at the battlefield that had just experienced a bloody battle and was full of dead corpses, and roared at Chen Xi'er: "All the soldiers of the army can be exempted!" Only you, Chen Xi'er, even if His Royal Highness doesn't want to kill, this general will definitely cut you with a thousand knives! ”

"Because of your slanderous and charming, General Ben and Li Le will discuss the proper matter, and there will be complications!" Holding Li Le's head in one hand and pointing at the dead corpses all over the ground with the long sword in the other, Duan Xuan gritted his teeth and said to Chen Xi'er hatefully: "If it weren't for you, how could there be so many soldiers buried in the wilderness?" If it weren't for you, we would have followed the king of Luoyang, and from now on we would be the official army of the Han Dynasty, and we would no longer be chaotic ministers and thieves! Seeing that the matter has been revealed, and there is no room for turn, you beg this general for a living, how can this general answer you? ”

Having said this, Duan Xuan glared at Chen Xi'er angrily and waved behind him, and shouted to several soldiers not far away: "Give me a thousand knives for this thief as a congratulatory gift for us to serve His Highness!" ”

Duan Xuan gritted his teeth and said something that touched the hearts of the remaining small number of Xiliang soldiers who had not yet handed over their weapons. They did not put down their weapons, not because they were loyal to Li Le, but because they were Li Le's subordinates, and they were worried that Liu Wei would treat them as Li Le's subordinates. From Duan Xuan's mouth, he learned that Liu Wei was likely to pardon them, and the remaining soldiers of the Xiliang Army also threw their weapons on the ground.

More and more soldiers of the Xiliang Army put down their weapons, and the soldiers who had received Duan Xuan's orders responded, and they all ran to the officers who were holding Chen Xi'er, and one of the soldiers stood next to Chen Xi'er's head, raised his foot, and kicked him the temple.

This kick was extremely powerful, accompanied by severe pain, Chen Xi'er intuitively felt that her eyes were black, her head was tilted, and she passed out.

Seeing Chen Xi'er faint, several soldiers glanced at each other, two of them stepped forward to set him up, and the other few ran into the barracks quickly, and after a while, they brought a thick log.

As the two warring sides in the barracks stopped fighting, the shouts of the soldiers and horses of Guan Qing's subordinates, who had approached the outside of the barracks, also stopped.

The sun had completely set the horizon, and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses under Guan Qing's command lit torches one after another. Patches of torches burst into flames, half of the night that had just fallen red.

As the army on the east side of the barracks lit torches, in the barracks, some Xiliang troops under Duan Xuan's command also lit braziers. The flickering flames scattered orange-red firelight, illuminating the entire barracks as if it were daytime.

Returning to the array of nearly 2,000 Luoyang troops, with a big knife in his hand, Guan Hai glanced at the Luoyang soldiers behind him.

In addition to the dead and seriously wounded officers and soldiers of the Luoyang Army who came with him, almost all of the rest were wounded, and everyone was covered with blood on their bodies and faces.

Before launching the attack, Guan Hai even thought that as long as they rushed down, the Xiliang army would be caught off guard and would most likely collapse quickly.

But after the battle began, Guan Hai soon found that he had underestimated the morale and combat power of the Xiliang Army too much! Although it was said that fighting against the Luoyang Army, for every seven or eight Xiliang soldiers fell, only one Luoyang Army could fall on the battlefield, but the soldiers of the Xiliang Army were unmoved, and still rushed towards them like a tide.

If it weren't for Duan Xuan's timely appearance, Guan Hai and the others would probably have to wait until it was dark before they could fight their way out of the encirclement of the Xiliang Army and continue to complete the task assigned to them by Liu Wei.

Several Xiliang soldiers carrying thick logs ran to Duan Xuan's approach and stood the log on the ground, and two of them dug a deep pit and buried one end of the log in the ground, so that it would stand upright.

After filling the pit with dirt and erecting the logs, the two soldiers who dragged Chen Xi'er helped him up, let him lean his back against the logs, took off his clothes and armor, and even tore his clothes, and put the shirtless Chen Xi'er on the stake, and tied him with ropes.

When Chen Xi'er was covered with hemp rope, a soldier of the Xiliang Army picked up a bucket of cold water out of nowhere and poured it on him.

Stirred by the cold water, Chen Xi'er, who had been unconscious, was thrilled and woke up leisurely.

After waking up, Chen Xi'er only felt that his hands and feet couldn't move at all, he hurriedly looked down at his body, and what caught his sight was the hemp rope coiled back and forth, tightly binding him to the stake.

Finding that he was tied with ropes all over his body, Chen Xi'er hurriedly looked up and looked forward again, only to see a soldier of the Xiliang Army, holding a sharp short blade in his hand, standing not far away looking at him with a cruel smile on his face.

Seeing the short blade in the soldier's hand, Chen Xi'er suddenly understood what was about to happen, he twisted his body desperately, trying to break free from the rope on his body, and at the same time stared at his eyes full of horror, and shouted at Duan Xuan: "General Duan spares his life, the villain will never dare again!" From now on, I am willing to be a cow and a horse for the general......"

"General Ben can't use a cow or horse like you!" Before Chen Xi'er's shout fell, Duan Xuan replied to him coldly, and then turned his head and muttered to Xiliang Jun, who was holding a short blade in his hand.

Although the soldiers of the Xiliang Army had a strange smile on their faces, they could still hold the short-bladed hand, and they could not help but tremble.

Cutting people to pieces is just a matter of moving the mouth, and it can also make people feel pleasure when they say it. However, for the specific executioners, they have to bear great psychological pressure.

On the battlefield, although there was also blood and blood splashing, but at that time, after all, the two sides were fighting each other, and if they didn't kill the enemy, they would be killed by the enemy.

And the meaning of smashing a person who has no power to fight back is completely different, and the psychological trauma to the executioner is far more than the psychological pressure of the soldiers who are fighting on the battlefield.

Holding the short sword, the ease on the face of the soldier of the Xiliang Army gradually faded, and every time he took a step closer to Chen Xi'er, who was tied to the stake, his breathing would be irrepressible and heavy.

In the barracks, whether it was the officers and soldiers of the Luoyang Army led by Guan Hai or the soldiers of the Xiliang Army, their eyes were all focused on Chen Xi'er, who was tied to the stake, quietly waiting for the sharp short blade to cut off a piece of fast-skin flesh from Chen Xi'er's body, and finally cut him into a pile of white bones.

Just as the soldiers of the Xiliang Army who were approaching Chen Xi'er, put the short blade on Chen Xi'er's arm, and were about to make a move, with the sound of rapid horse hooves, a fast horse rushed into the barracks.

Riding on horseback was a cavalryman wearing Luoyang military armor, just arrived to stop a desperate fight, but also filled with a heavy bloody battlefield, the cavalry reined in the war horse and shouted: "Your Highness has an order, General Guan immediately led the troops and horses back to the city!" ”

Hearing the shouts of the cavalry, Guan Hai waved to the soldiers of the Luoyang Army behind him and shouted to them: "Put on the torches and bring back the soldiers who died in battle!" ”

With Guan Hai's order, nearly 2,000 Luoyang soldiers quickly lit torches, and with the help of the firelight, they searched for their fallen comrades among the corpses everywhere.

"General Duan Xuan is here?" Glancing at the Luoyang army, who were busy searching for their dead companions, the cavalry shouted again.

Duan Xuan heard the cavalry call him, hurriedly took two steps forward, clasped his fists and said, "The last general is here, I don't know what the general commands?" ”

"Your Highness has an order!" It was only Liu Wei's personal soldier who came to give the order, and the personal soldier did not entangle with Duan Xuan in terms of title, but looked at Duan Xuan and said to him: "General Duan has made meritorious contributions to quelling the chaos, and His Royal Highness has prepared a banquet to celebrate the general's achievements!" There is also a reward! As for the soldiers of the Xiliang Army who resisted General Guan, they only obeyed Li Le's orders, and His Royal Highness summoned them all to be pardoned! ”
