The cheers on the city walls rose one after another, and soon the soldiers who were responsible for defending the other three walls also received the news of the victory and joined in, pushing the happy atmosphere to a climax. They held Liyang, and they turned the tide of the battle. Although half a month ago, they belonged to the weak brigade that had just been included in the order of the government soldiers. But after this battle, the name of Xiongwu Ying Xiaoguo will resound throughout the Great Sui along with the city under his feet.

Cavalry continued to rush out of the smoke and dust, mercilessly cutting down the already collapsed rebels to the ground. Those who had lost their fighting spirit either dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground begging for their lives, or fled away crying and screaming, and no one summoned up the courage to resist or worry about the food in the city. If the cheerers on the city walls and the fugitives below the city took a closer look at the situation on the battlefield, they would be surprised to find that the number of cavalry was far less than they had imagined. Although the dust and smoke brought by the horse's hooves soared into the sky, the war horses that rushed out of the smoke and dust became more and more sparse.

"It's kind of weird!" Yu Wenshi walked up to Li Xu and said in a low voice. After calming down from the initial excitement, he finally found that the number of cavalry under the city was less than one-tenth of the number of defeated soldiers.

"It's not reinforcements, it's our brothers who we've left on the road!" Li Xu put away the black knife and deliberately lowered his voice very low. The number of reinforcements may be less than 5,000, all cavalry. The cavalry were accompanied by many horses with empty saddles. Looking at the entire Great Sui, there is only one team that maintains this strange ratio of fewer people than war horses, and that is the Xiongwu battalion under his command. A few days ago, thousands of miles rushed to Liyang, and he and Yu Wenshi and all the soldiers and war horses who were physically exhausted were left in the post stations along the way, and handed over to Murong Luo to contain. Counting the time, the brothers were able to arrive at this time.

"You said, you said that the city is Murong Bei who will take our old, weak, sick and disabled!" Yu Wenshi pointed to the rout in the distance, his blood-red eyes widened. Suddenly, he began to laugh loudly, beating his chest and feet, tears rolling down his face, and the blood on his face turned white and red. "Li Mi, Li Mi bought a piece of tofu and hit it to death," he laughed and cried and scolded. "What is talented, what is famous, bullshit, all blown out, all fucking blown out."

When he was a teenager, he was praised by the late Yang Su, the Duke of Chu, and has been a model for the children of the Great Sui family for many years. Hang the corner to read, and have a ravine. In the face of such an opponent, Yu Wenshi said that he was not afraid, and he pretended to comfort his soldiers. When he found out that he had finally defeated the role model and example he had been for many years, and that guy was just a silver wax spear head who made a name for himself, the feeling in his heart could not be described as just happiness.

"It's dark, they have become the end of the crossbow, but I didn't expect that our people would kill at this time." Xuzi smiled tiredly and responded in a low voice. The opponent's fame didn't put much pressure on him in the first place, so at this time, he could see the key to the enemy's defeat more clearly.

The rebels had been worried about the arrival of reinforcements from the Great Sui, so their scouts focused on the main force led by the old general Yuwenshu, so that they ignored the threat from the northwest. When Murong Luo led the brothers who had fallen behind in the Xiongwu battalion into the battlefield with lightning speed, the tired and hungry rebels who had been fighting all day certainly didn't have time to think about whether this team was the main force of the Great Sui. So, they inevitably collapsed, very completely.

The factor in winning a war is not just the use of troops, sometimes it takes a little luck. Undoubtedly, all the good fortune of today fell on the head of the Xiongwu camp. For those who try to collude with foreign enemies to destroy their own country, the gods in the dark may also find their conduct despicable.

"To chase or not to chase?" Yu Wenshi smiled enough, wiped his face, and asked again. It is estimated that it will take another day or two for the official reinforcements to arrive. If you don't take this opportunity to kill Li Mi's soul to scatter, I'm afraid that after recovering from the shock, this shameless guy will gather soldiers and horses to find trouble with everyone.

"I want to chase, but how do we get out of the city?" Asahiko shrugged and responded to Yu's question with a wry smile. He knew what Yu Wenshi was worried about, but the four gates of Liyang City had been blocked with sandbags last night. Although the brothers stationed on the north and south walls were fully organized at this time, it was not an easy task to send them out.

"All you have to do is allow them to go out of the city and chase them down, and take the credit. As for how to get out of the city, they will figure it out themselves! Yu Wenshi smiled mysteriously and pointed.

Li Xu knew that Yu Wenshi and his stomach had a lot of ghost ideas, and he had no chance to miss at this moment, so he had to issue a military order with an attitude of trying it out. The command flags demanding that the defenders of the north and south cities "go out of the city to chase and flee" were tied to the flagpole and raised high. The cheers on the north and south walls suddenly stopped, and then even higher cheers rang out again. Soon, Xuzi, who dragged his tired body to the top of the enemy tower, saw a shocking scene on the north and south city walls, the soldiers quickly transferred the ropes tied to the inner city wall to the outer city wall, and then, some soldiers slipped down from the city, ran to the west of the city, and carried away the ladder abandoned by the rebels. Then, the defenders of the brigade followed the ropes of the ladder and fished down.

"You stay and defend the city, I'll go out of the city to see!" Li Xu glanced at Yu Wenshi and his face was full of admiration. Then he grabbed his weapon and ran down the stairs quickly. When he rushed to the city with more than 20 soldiers who could still walk along the Yuliang Avenue built by the rebels, the lieutenants Cui Qian and Li Mengwei had already lined up outside the West City with 2,000 of the strongest soldiers.

"You two lead the army to chase and kill, be careful not to fall into the trap of the enemy!" Asahiko swept her gaze over the brothers' faces and commanded loudly. "Yes! The end will not be dishonored! Cui and Li agreed, and rushed into the distance with their subordinates and shouting all the way.

"Let's go chase it too!" Xu Zi dragged his tired body, turned back to Zhang Xiu and the others and said. A general of his level no longer needs to rely on collecting heads to accumulate military exploits. But no longer personally "send" Li Mi for a ride, Xu Zi felt uneasy after all.

Zhang Xiu nodded, and followed behind the main general with his brothers. It wasn't completely dark, and their bloodied but high-spirited team stood out in the glow. Soon, some cavalrymen discovered their main general, and everyone cheered and gathered around Li Xu, bringing a few empty saddle mounts along the way.

"The general is here, and the general himself has come to greet everyone!" The cavalry excitedly spread the news throughout the battlefield.

"See General Lee!"

"I've seen the General!" Officers kept coming over to meet Li Xu, and at the same time brought more empty saddle mounts. From officers to soldiers, everyone had adoration written all over their faces. General Li was a man who was good at making miracles, and he made it once in Liaodong and once outside Liyang City. As for today's victory, although it was completely commanded by Murong Luo, the soldiers still instinctively attributed most of the credit to Xuzi.

More than 200 horsemen gradually gathered around, Li Xu jumped on the war horse, turned around and hugged his fist to Liyang City, and made a gesture of please. Then the horses pursued in the direction of the enemy's rout.

"This kid, when did he become so greedy!" Yu Wenshi shook his head with a smile and slowly walked down the enemy tower. This is a big victory, and after the counterinsurgency, there will be a brilliant golden avenue in front of Xuzi and him. This is what he came out of by himself, and he didn't rely on the Yuwen family's slightest power. He wiped his face again and looked up proudly.

"Seven catties, where is Murong Bei!" Li Xu turned his head and asked a man in the color of a lieutenant's uniform beside him as he galloped. He remembered that this person's name was Wang Qijin, and he brought it all the way from the grain protection army. On the way to Liyang, this person was injured by a fall because of a war horse, and was placed at a post near Zhending.

"I have already led the team to catch up, we have few people, Murong Bei General said that he can't give the rebels a chance to breathe, lest they see the truth!" Wang Qijin straightened his chest and replied loudly. Mr. Lang was very proud to be able to call his name in public. Although there are only about fifty old brothers who have followed Xuzi from the grain protection army, as long as they are still alive, Wang Qijin himself can accurately describe every familiar face.

"Then let's chase it too! Withdraw your troops when it's completely dark! Li Xu lifted the reins of the horse and quickened the speed of travel. Murong Luo was a qualified general, and his judgment was very accurate. While galloping, Xuzi suddenly found that he had a lot of talents under his command. Li Mengwei, Murong Luo, Cui Qian, Zhao Ziming, almost everyone is a good player. With time after this battle, he may be able to build another team of Tiger Riders. Thinking of this, his blood surged, and the fatigue on his body was instantly alleviated a lot.

The situation on the battlefield was very chaotic, one in the east, one in the west, and everywhere there were rebels prostrate on the ground, waiting to be slaughtered. Small squads of cavalry rushed at high speed past these men who had lost the courage to resist, and no one stopped to contain the prisoners. If a captive was unfortunate enough to block their path, the cavalrymen immediately carved a way with their swords and horses' hooves. The slaughtered, crying out, fled farther away, ran a few paces, and when they saw that there were no horses' hooves chasing them, they gave up their legs and fell to their knees again with a thud.

After chasing the small half pillar of incense for about a while, Li Mengwei's banner appeared in Xuzi's sight. The horses could not get out of the city, and the brethren, who had been converted from cavalry to infantry, did not move very fast, and the order was very disorderly. They found a group of rebels standing in the field, with six gods and no masters, and then, more than 200 soldiers carrying different weapons separated from the banner of Li Mengwei, surrounded this group of defeated soldiers, and ordered them to put down their weapons and kneel. Immediately after, a shocking scene occurred in front of Xuzi's eyes.

The brethren of the Xiongwu battalion wielded their weapons and slaughtered the newly surrendered. Without hesitation, they stabbed each other in the body with kitchen knives, sharpened wooden sticks, spears picked up on the battlefield, and horizontal knives. Kill them as they cry for mercy, then cut off their bloody heads with a sharp blade and throw them into a straw bag as if they were collecting their belongings.

The slaughtered rebels did not dare to resist, and fled in all directions, crying loudly. The brothers of the Xiongwu Battalion, who had been prepared for a long time, gathered around and lowered them one by one in the red twilight with feathered arrows and spears. At this moment, the sky and the earth were red, and the eyes of every murderer were also jumping red. Twinkle and twinkle, like wolves on the grassland after dark.

"Stop, who told you to do that!" Li Xu saw that his heart was broken, and he rushed forward and shouted to stop.

"Oh, what are you yelling about, are you fake compassion? If we don't kill them, what will we do to get rid of our crimes, and what will we take to ask for credit? Yes! A recruit of the Xiongwu Battalion with his back to Li Xu and wearing canvas armor retorted loudly. It was too late to enter the camp, and he hadn't had time to familiarize himself with the voice of the commander. Therefore, he directly regarded Li Xu behind him as a soft-hearted recruit.

"Lord Lang orders you to stop!" Wang Qijin waved his horsewhip and hit him in the face. The tremendous force of the whip carried the recruit's body in half a circle, knocking him over in a pool of blood. "General Lang has an order, not to kill indiscriminately!" Among the cavalry, Zhang Xiu's tired command voice was heard again. This time, everyone heard clearly, holding the blood-dripping weapon, and stood dumbfounded beside a pile of corpses.

The cavalry quickly stepped forward and formed a large circle. The busy killers and the slain, who were crying for mercy, were silenced, and some untied their blood-stained bags and quietly threw them to the ground. Some people were still indignant, but when they saw the anger in Li Xu's eyes and the horizontal swords raised high by the cavalry, they had to bow their heads.

"Who, who told you to do that?" Li Xu pointed his brother with a horsewhip and roared angrily. Most of these men were new recruits to the battalion, and they were wearing the same armor made of canvas as the rebels, and they carried a variety of weapons in their hands. If you don't tell them carefully, you can't see the difference between them and the rebels, the same yellow and rough faces, the same tired waist from the weight of life, and the same sly eyes flashing in the same daze.

Forced by the prestige of the commander, the soldiers did not dare to fight back. However, they were not convinced, and their feet were the dirt, grinding out small pits of dirt. The plasma of the slain gathered, and condensed into small puddles in the plasma, which were so red that people's eyes were hot.

"They are here to atone for their sins!" Li Mengwei, who realized that something was wrong, quietly ran over and reported it behind Xuzi's war horse. He did not think that killing prisoners was a crime, and now the number of soldiers in the Xiongwu camp was several times that of veterans, and only through killing could the soldiers completely release the anxiety and anger in their hearts. It is also only through blood that recruits and veterans can be firmly glued to each other.

And those innocent people who were killed, they were just the victims and glues that had to be paid in the process of the rise of the Xiongwu Battalion, and that's it.

"Atonement?" Asahiko suddenly found that this word was very familiar to him. A long, long time ago, the victors of the steppe, after catching the vanquished, did the same.

Even not long ago, he personally supervised the defeat and surrender of Yuan Wuben.

It's just that the first two massacres were made grand and mysterious, but this one is not simple and crude.

"Will you atone for your sins?" In a daze, Li Xu heard a voice thundering in his ears. He saw the heavens and the earth, boundless blood rushing towards him, wet and sticky, so crushing that people could not breathe.

Alcoholic's note: It's only one shift today, no way, Christmas, there are too many things. Even if you enter another country, the drunkard has to follow the customs, right?
