At this time, although they have not yet figured out what is happening, one thing is certain, that is, something unexpected must have happened, otherwise, the Rus' army obviously has a great advantage, why is it retreating?

With this incident, a new speculation appeared, that is, the emperor Zhang Chao led reinforcements to attack, forcing the Rus army to retreat. Based on this assumption, Lu Bu and the others naturally would not allow the Rus army to withdraw in such peace. After a brief meeting between several road army generals, they made the decision to pursue with all their strength and delay the speed of the opponent's retreat.

Mikhail did not expect that he was only one night later than General Pudding, and now it was very difficult to retreat. All the Celestial Empire armies in Dahu Mountain actually attacked him, making him unable to defend himself at all.

The situation changed so quickly that while Mikhail scolded General Pudding for not doing things properly, he also had to order the army to defend in place, because if he blindly fled under the pursuit of the heavy army, I am afraid that it will not be long before the 600,000 troops will be annihilated here.

Mikhail is about to play a defensive battle, and the change in the situation of the battle has surprised everyone. Just yesterday, they were still attacking and defending sides, and after a night, they actually changed positions. The main defending Celestial Empire army became the main attack.

Cavalry can play a greater role than attacking. After seeing the Rus' army begin to build a defensive front, Lu Bu immediately found General Wen Chou, and the two generals organized their hundreds of thousands of cavalry and began a crazy cavalry raid.

Even if it was a surprise attack, of course, it did not want to give the Rus soldiers time to prepare for a battle. It's just that after all, there is still a huge disparity in the strength of the two sides, and many infantry troops belonging to the Celestial Empire have not yet fully arrived, so with these hundreds of thousands of cavalry, it is difficult to inflict heavy losses on the Rus' army in a short time.

Despite this, Lü Bu and Wen Chou still commanded the army to carry out wave after wave of attacks, they had to buy time for the arrival of the infantry army, and the opponent who wanted to fight did not have time to establish a defensive line.

Mikhail saw that the army was facing heavy losses again and again by the cavalry of the Celestial Empire, and his soldiers were suffering casualties every moment, and he was also very anxious, all he could do was to keep rushing out of the defense line to ask General Pudding for help from the situation here, hoping to help him for the sake of his colleagues.

It's just that Pudding and Terekin at this meeting have already led the army out of the range of Dahu Mountain and headed straight for Pahan City, and in their eyes, the life of Prince Ivan is naturally the most important, as for Mikhail, who asked him not to obey the order and go back to the rescue, what does his life and death have to do with himself?

The reinforcements that Mikhail had been waiting for did not arrive, but waited for the arrival of other infantry troops of the Celestial Empire, as well as the army led by Zhang Chao, the emperor of the Celestial Empire.

As soon as Zhang Chao arrived, 50,000 cavalry of the Zhang family army were thrown into the battlefield. Especially the appearance of the 20,000 heavy cavalry of the Zhang family, they were like a sharp sword, and after they poured into the camp of the Rus' army, it was a violent tear, and any line of defense could not resist for long in their eyes before it was broken.

The bravery of the heavy cavalry of the Zhang family drove the morale of the cavalry under Lu Bu and Wen Chou, and they followed the footsteps of the heavy cavalry and fought a defensive line in the Rus' army.

General Mikhail of the Chinese army did not expect that the cavalry of the Celestial Empire could tear through the defense line so quickly and come to him, and when he was told that the enemy cavalry was coming, he walked out of the big tent with a panic.

Mikhail, who had just put on heavy armor, rode his war horse and left here, and Lu Bu had already arrived here with three hundred personal soldiers.

The number of personal soldiers who followed Lu Bu originally numbered 600, but they only rushed all the way and killed nearly half of them, these are all old brothers who have followed the southern expedition and the northern war for several years or even longer. Every time he died, he was very distressed. It's just that now for the sake of the final victory in the battle, he really can't care so much.

Just before coming to the tent of the Rus' army, he saw Mikhail, dressed in heavy armor, riding himself on battle and preparing to flee. At that moment, when the distance was still far away, Lu Bu shouted loudly: "Where to escape, send him to death quickly." ”

As he spoke, Lu Bu clamped his legs hard. Under the pain, the red rabbit horse under the seat roared, and galloped forward at a very fast speed, and in a blink of an eye, he came to Mikhail.

"Kill him!" Seeing that only Lu Bu rushed over, Mikhail naturally did not be afraid, but instead commanded his own soldiers to surround Lu Bu, and for this lonely general of the Celestial Empire, he vowed to kill him quickly.

Lu Bu, who was about to rush to the front, saw the tall Rus soldiers on the left and right approaching, and there was a trace of disdain in his eyes, and then he saw the halberd in his hand for a moment, and then the halberd was revealed, and the cold light instantly enveloped the surrounding area, and then the halberd fell over people's heads, and the two Rus soldiers were immediately beheaded.

Lu Bu's martial arts and bravery deeply shocked the Rus soldiers who were still rushing on the side. They originally thought that only one Celestial Empire general would not be able to stop the siege of so many of them, but now it seems that this bone is not easy to gnaw.

Taking advantage of the moment of hesitation of those soldiers, Lu Bu sped up his horse speed and came to Mikhail's side, "Dang! A loud sonic boom of gold and iron rang out, and the halberd smashed into Mikhail's broadsword.

Just by fighting, the big knife in Mikhail's hand was almost shaken to the ground, he didn't expect that the strength of this Celestial Empire general would be so great, just a blow, it actually shook his arm a little.

After a blow, Lu Bu had already tried Mikhail's strength, knowing that this person would not be his opponent, and even the first-class generals of the Celestial Empire were inferior, and his confidence increased greatly, and the halberd in his hand stabbed out twice, and the long knife that Mikhail had just raised collided with again, and suddenly a terrible wave of qi was lifted, and under the impact of the halberd and the knife, there was a roaring sound that shook the space.

"Die!" Under the two consecutive blows, seeing that Mihail was a little unstable, Lu Bu drank wildly again, and then the Fang Tian painting halberd in his hand poked out again, and a majestic momentum also came out of his body, like a peerless general, sweeping over, tearing the air into bursts of ripples.

Fast and fierce, the extremely powerful Fang Tian painting halberd fell with the momentum of swallowing mountains and rivers, this time Mikhail couldn't do anything except open his eyes wide and showed a frightened expression, so he was swept by a halberd in front of his waist, and such a dignified General Ross was actually beheaded by Lu Bu in front of everyone.

Until this moment, the attack of those Mikhail's personal soldiers had just arrived, attacking from all directions.

"Get out!" Seeing the attack of those pro-soldiers coming, Lu Bu broke off again, and then the halberd in his hand turned into a streamer of light and slashed around. It was accompanied by a loud bang, and under a halberd, all the weapons that attacked him were knocked to the ground.

After doing this, Rao is Lu Bu's bravery was amazing, and at this moment he had to take two deep breaths, and then looked at Mikhail, who was cut in half, and laughed.

Mikhail was killed, which greatly shook the confidence and morale of the Rus' army. Utkin saw that the situation was going and wanted to leave here under the protection of the generals.

It's just that Utkin, who has long been targeted by Wen Chou, is now trying to escape, it is indeed a little late, just when he was about to get out of the main battle circle, he was outflanked by the iron cavalry of the Celestial Empire, and then the heavy cavalry of the Zhang family, who killed all directions, also caught up.

In front of the elite Zhang Jia's heavy cavalry, the Rus' army, which had no morale, had no ability to resist at all, and the battle only ended until dark, and the Rus generals were killed and Utkin was captured.

The captured Utkin, who was scarred, was obviously hated by the Celestial Empire soldiers for this culprit who came up with the idea to defeat General Cai Yang and destroy his road army. To all this, Utkin just lowered his head deeply, he knew that the fate that awaited him was a nightmare.

Just half a day late, Mikhail's 600,000 troops were wiped out, which showed the strong combat power of the Celestial Empire's soldiers, and also indicated that Prince Ivan would greatly weaken his military superiority from now on. The balance between the forces of the two sides began to appear, which also showed that the balance of victory was tilting in favor of Zhang Chao.

Phra Han City.

General Song Quan with 20,000 soldiers was ready for battle.

On the top of the tower, all the soldiers looked into the distance with a resolute face, each of them knew what they were about to face, but none of them showed fear at the moment.

What people fear most is the unknown, and once you know what fate will come next, that fear will disappear. Just like now, knowing that defending the city is a life of death, everyone has become much calmer. Not to mention, 20,000 soldiers have done things that they have never dared to do in their lives in the past two days, and under the leadership of General Song Quan, they have taken out the good wine and meat in the city, and even some young soldiers have found some local Rus' women and completed the real transformation into a man.

These things were originally not allowed by the military regulations of the Celestial Empire. It's just that he knows that he will die, and General Song Quan can't care so much, he only knows that 20,000 soldiers will die with him, so it is also necessary to create some benefits for them before they die, and it is the only thing he can do now.

I've enjoyed everything I can enjoy, and then it's time to work hard. Twenty thousand soldiers seemed to be waiting for the moment when fate would decide.
