A large number of Red troops roared and launched an almost suicidal charge against the Jin army in front, but before the people could reach the Jin army, the arrow array was already coming.

"Plop, pounce, pounce—"

The sound of arrows breaking through armor rang out in the Red Army's camp, and the soldiers in front were shot like hedgehogs by the arrows, rolling and falling to the ground, and the Red Army behind wanted to jump over the corpses of their comrades and continue to rush forward, but a new round of arrows fell on them.

Charging against the arrow array is extremely cruel, but the Red Army has no way to retreat, so it can only grit its teeth and rush forward, and the soldiers below fall row after row, under the arrow array of the first legion, even the generals with the body of the underworld are not enough to resist, and the armor on the body is shattered by the dense arrow rain nails in the blink of an eye, and then the whole body is full of carved feathers, screaming and falling off the war horse.

It can be said that the Red Army that broke through the encirclement stepped on hundreds or even tens of thousands of corpses of their comrades before they barely rushed to the front of the Jin Army.

As soon as the Red Army approached, the heavy shield of the Jin Army first stabilized their own formation with shields, and at the same time, countless spears and halberds were stabbed out behind them, and in an instant, the Red Soldiers who finally rushed up were stabbed into a hornet's nest, and their bodies were covered with blood holes.

"Kill—"

As the people shouted in unison, the officers and men of the First Regiment collectively took a step forward, and another row of red soldiers rushed up were stabbed and fell to the ground.

"Kill, kill, kill—"

The shouts of the First Army became more and more urgent, and the overall formation advanced faster and faster. With the First Army in full array and formation, it was too difficult to break it up. That's not something that any country's infantry can do.

The Red Army's all-out breakthrough not only did not force the Jin Army to retreat, but it was involuntarily retreated by the advance.

So Zhang Xiao, who is proficient in the art of war, was also dumbfounded at this time, the war book full of war strategies was completely useless at this time, watching the Jin army in front and behind continue to squeeze towards his side, his own soldiers were getting fewer and fewer, and the original 80,000 people were not even 50,000 at this time, he couldn't help but feel sad. Is it true that I am going to fold here today?

Just when he was helpless and desperate, two generals who had killed him covered in blood and with arrows stuck in their shoulders galloped over. The two came to Lu Hongming's approach. Shuangshuang reined in his war horses and said urgently: "General, the gold thief has been prepared for a long time, and he has blocked all the retreats of our army. Forceful assault is no longer possible. General, let's hurry into the woods and run!"

Zhang Xiao looked up to the sky and sighed. How easy is it to run? I don't know how many ambushes are hidden in the woods, where are I going?

Seeing that his expression was dull, he did not speak. The two partial generals were so anxious that their eyes were red, and they screamed: "General, if you don't leave, it's really too late! General, let's go!"

Zhang Xiao muttered: "In case there are ambushes in the forest......

"There are not so many things to manage now, even if there are ambushes, there may be hope of escaping through the woods as a cover!"

"Yes, General, it's better than waiting here to die!"

Zhang Xiao sighed: "But if I escape, what will my brothers do?" He has worked with these Red Army soldiers for several years, and it is impossible to say that he has no feelings.

"General, the brothers also have to break out of the woods, now it's as much as you can run!"

"Alas! it can only be like this......" Zhang Xiao looked at the critical situation on the battlefield, and finally accepted the advice of his partial generals, gave up taking the official road, and led the remnants of the defeated army to break through into the woods.

The main strength of the First Army was used to intercept the Red Army, and there were really not many soldiers in ambush in the woods, but the positions occupied by people were carefully designed by Shao Lin, which was convenient for attacking the enemy and not easy to be attacked by the enemy.

These few Jin soldiers caused great damage to the Red Army who fled into the forest, cold arrows flew from all directions from time to time, and the Red Soldiers who were still running desperately just now may be shot by stray arrows in an instant, turning into straight corpses, plus the two Jin Army then pursued relentlessly, the escape of the Red Army can only be described as miserable.

In order to hide his identity, Zhang Xiao even threw away the war horse, took off his helmet, mixed in the crowd of the Red Army, and ran with the flow of people.

After reaching the end, Zhang Xiao didn't remember how long he had been running in the woods, but he felt that his lungs were about to explode, and he was covered in sweat.

How dare the two generals delay more, one of them grabbed one of Zhang Xiao's arms and dragged him to continue to flee into the woods.

I don't know how long it took, the shouting and killing finally faded away, and it was only at this time that the two generals slowed down and let Zhang Xiao go.

Without the support of the two generals, Zhang Xiao collapsed on the ground as if he had no bones, his mouth was wide open, and he was retching.

The two generals helped him beat his chest and knocked on his back, and it took a while to let Zhang Xiao slow down his breath. The latter lay on the ground, inhaled heavily, and waved his hand at the two of them, meaning that he could no longer run.

Seeing him like this, as if he was going to be exhausted to death, the two generals didn't dare to continue dragging him away, running wildly for so long, even if the generals were deep in the martial arts, they felt extremely tired, and the two of them sat down slowly, and at the same time looked around, tears almost fell.

The temporary army of 80,000 people has not even reached 800 people, and the few hundred people have crooked armor one by one, covered in blood, and their faces are numb and hopeless.

After the last, only two partial generals and more than 800 Red Army soldiers remained by Zhang Xiao's side.

At the end of the battle, Zhang Xiao seemed to be more than ten years old in an instant, and he fled back to Bailin in a hurry with these hundreds of remnants of the defeated army.

He didn't stay for a moment when he arrived at Bailin, although there were still 20,000 Red Army here, but compared with the number of the Jin Army, it was very different from the number of the Jin Army, he felt that once the Jin Army attacked, it would be difficult for him to hold on, and it was better to take the initiative to evacuate than to sit and wait for death.

After Zhang Xiao returned to Bailin, he ordered the whole army to pack up armaments, grain and grass, and then led the army out of the city, abandoned the city and fled, and went south to join the Huwei army.

Soon, the news of Zhang Xiao's defeat also spread to Yangchuan, Yin Ze listened to it, his face changed suddenly, sure enough, the Jin army's strong attack on the water was indeed a feint, and its purpose was to attract reinforcements from Yangchuan and Bailin's army, and they were ambushed halfway. Fortunately, he was on guard and did not have the evil deeds of the Zhongjin Army.

However, as soon as Zhang Xiao withdrew, it was equivalent to a big hole in the border defense of the Red Country, and the Jin army could completely enter the hinterland of the Red Country through Bailin to the south.

Now, Yin Ze only has two choices left, either stick to Yangchuan, or follow Zhang Xiao's example, abandon the city and go south, go to join the Huwei army, and then find a way to recapture Bailin.

After some careful consideration, Yin Ze finally decided to stay in Yangchuan, even if the Jin army broke through his own defense line and could break into the hinterland of the Red Kingdom, he would make the rear of the Jin army not quiet, at least disrupt the logistics of the Jin army, and create favorable conditions for the operation of the Huwei army as much as possible.

Yin Ze's strategic thinking is very correct, but he underestimated the determination of the Jin State to fight the Red Country this time, and the Jin Army that entered the territory of the Red Country was far more than the First Army Corps, followed by the Sixth Army of the Jin State headed by Mu Wu.

Shao Lin successfully ambushed the Bailin army and forced its main general Zhang Xiao to abandon the city and flee, this news made Ding Feng feel shocked, and he immediately passed on a letter to Shao Lin, quickly occupy Bailin, so that he could have a stable stronghold first. As for Yangchuan's side, Yin Ze was not fooled, and Ding Feng did not plan to attack, so he recruited Ling Wuya, who was ambushed between Yangchuan and Xiashui, and then joined forces to attack Xiashui.

Under the continuous blows of the First Legion's stone throwers and city-breaking crossbows, the city defense of Xiashui Town has long been scarred, and many sections of the city wall have been smashed and crumbling, and now tens of thousands of the First Army have launched a strong attack, and the defenders in the city are no longer able to support it.

Not long after the two sides fought, a section of the city wall of Xiashui Town was forcibly knocked down by the rushing carts, cracking a large gap three or four meters wide.

The Jin army outside the city moved away from the rushing car, swarmed into the city along the gap, and killed into the city. With the city wall as a block, the local army that went into the water can barely withstand the Jin army, and now that the Jin army has entered the city, how can the local army still be able to parry?

The Red Army generals also wanted to organize manpower to block the gap, but before the Red Army could get closer, they were cut down to the ground by the Jin army that rushed over. Ling Wuya took the lead in the front, the long knife was swung out, and the whirlwind of the knife was released continuously, and the red army that fell in front of him fell one by one, scattering the stumps and broken arms of the air current.

Some Red Army generals saw Ling Wuya's bravery, and wanted to come over to block him, but they didn't even survive three rounds in front of Ling Wuya, and they were slashed by Ling Wuya in the waist and cut in two.

The combat effectiveness of the local army was not strong, and at this time, it encountered the fierce First Army, which collapsed and collapsed in an instant. A large number of local troops had no fighting spirit, and the crying fathers who were killed cried and shouted for their mothers, and they ran into the city with rolling and crawling, and the first army led by Ling Wuya then pursued and killed, and the siege battle also evolved into a street battle.

In front of the first legion, the 50,000 local army can be said to have no power to fight back, as soon as the north city is broken, the defenders will run into the city, and when the first army pursues to the city, the local army has fled to the south city, when the first army pursues the south city, the local army has abandoned the city and fled, running outside the city.

After this battle, many officers and men of the First Army did not even see the enemy's face, and felt that the enemy had been facing them with the back of his head, which made people laugh and cry.

Although Hu Yan was not an excellent general, and he was very timid and afraid of death, he did not dare to run south after breaking the city, but went west, fled to Yangchuan, and joined Yin Ze.

In his opinion, there is still the possibility of recapturing the water when he escapes to Yangchuan, and he also has the opportunity to make up for his mistakes, but if he flees south, there is no hope at all, even if he can escape the pursuit of the Jin army, I am afraid he will not be able to escape the heavy punishment of the king.
