"Hurry, hurry!"

On the road on the south bank of Gushui, Li Tai rode his horse and galloped, while looking back at the urging of his subordinates, at this time his mood was not only anxious, but also mixed with a lot of crying and laughing.

Since he came to this world, he rarely recalls the affairs of the later generations, but today he remembers a popular science program called "Approaching Science". The show taught him the truth that many seemingly mysterious phenomena often have a simple and simple reason.

Some of the movements in the enemy camp tonight are a bit difficult to explain and unclear, but it is likely that there is a very simple reason, such as that the enemy commander is drunk......

Although this reason seems ridiculous and ridiculous, after realizing this possibility, Li Tai quickly remembered that the last guy who was drunk and defeated and killed here in Qianjinyan was much more powerful than Xue Guyan, and it was the former Zhao Emperor Liu Yao.

But this was only Li Tai's own speculation after all, so he only led the 300 elite cavalry who had been preparing for a night attack as the vanguard, and the rear cavalry was led by Liang Shiyan and Gao Le, and the tail followed. In this way, even if the judgment is wrong, the whole army will not fall into the trap.

But when he saw that the enemy camp was already in sight, and the suburbs were already full of galloping masterless war horses, Li Tai knew that he was worried again, and these drunkards were addicted to all their pleasure and didn't care about anything else. And his thinking is too normal, and he can't catch up with Xue Guyan's thinking level of a drunken ghost at all.

"Capture and kill the thief and Xue Guyan, and reward 5,000 horses! Rush! ”

Li Tai rode his horse and rushed towards the enemy camp, which was already in turmoil, while shouting loudly. It's not that he can't afford a higher price, but he stubbornly feels that Xue Guyan's Hu General shouldn't be more expensive than Gao Aocao.

At this time, the enemy's camp was already a chaotic situation of people turning on their backs and scaring in all directions, and there was no order at all. The reason for such chaos was not only because He Ruodun destroyed the enemy's horse camp, but also because Han Xiong, who was supposed to be trapped in the lonely city, led his troops to kill.

The enemy army had already coalesced, and Han Xiong's subordinates, who bore the brunt of the attack, naturally did not dare to slack off, and put on armor and prepared for battle early. But nearly an hour had passed, and the enemy had not yet attacked.

Just when Han Xiong was also complacent and suspicious, the enemy troops in the originally assembled camp were shocked to hear that the war horses had bombed the camp and fled, and the already tired and anxious soldiers naturally wanted to separate up to surround it.

Han Xiong, who had been paying close attention to the movements of the enemy army, saw this chaotic scene, how could he miss it, when even if he led the five hundred heavily armed troops to attack and kill the enemy camp gate, the enemy troops who had dispersed suddenly became even more careless, and the camp gate was quickly broken down by Han Xiong, and some of the enemy soldiers who had gathered in a hurry were also killed and retreated.

As Li Tai led the elite cavalry into the enemy camp, the situation suddenly collapsed even more.

These enemy soldiers were not unscrupulous, and even in such a chaotic situation, there were still soldiers who collected their horses and formed battle formations under the orders of their respective commanders, forming several combat teams of 100 people, shouting and wandering around the barracks, trying to reorganize the men and horses.

But they had to deal not only with the enemy who had already entered the camp, but also with their frightened and unrestrained comrades, especially the latter. There was no shortage of soldiers who were reluctantly organized, but soon the panic came back to their hearts and they fled, so that even the original array organization was crushed.

"You wait to attack and kill the thief army's tent as soon as possible, and the others will follow me to hunt down Yu Kou!"

In the process of charging and killing the enemy camp, Li Tai soon saw Han Xiong's troops, so he quickly explained the task to them, and he led the other troops to kill wherever there were troops in the camp.

At this time, Han Xiong and the others also successfully entered the big tent of the Chinese army in the enemy camp after some attacks, and seized the tokens such as the talisman flag discarded by the enemy general in a hurry near this big tent, but there was no trace of the enemy general Xue Guyan.

At this time, in the camp, the fierce battle had gradually ended, many of the routs fled across the camp, and the stubborn resistance in the camp who were still conceited were gradually surrounded and killed, and the rest were frightened, and they abandoned their weapons and surrendered to the ground.

Han Xiong ordered people to quickly search the camps on the left, and among those prisoners, he selected a few commanders and generals to ask the main general about his whereabouts one by one, but all of them were fruitless, and it was basically certain that the enemy general Xue Guyan had escaped from the camp.

When Li Tai learned of this, he immediately frowned. The failure to capture and kill the enemy's main commander in battle is not only related to the size of the merit, but also means that the enemy's organizational strength and command system cannot be completely dismantled.

At present, the condition of the enemy camp seems to be miserable, but in fact, the actual killing, wounding and capture of enemy soldiers is less than half of the enemy's strength, and the rest are still fleeing into the field. After the enemy commander escapes here, he can still appease the defeated pawns and reorganize them in the process of fleeing, restore a certain combat effectiveness, and even fight back.

In particular, some troops with light cavalry as the main force often agreed on a post-battle assembly place with the commanders and generals of the army before the battle, so that they could be gathered as soon as possible after the battle was unfavorable.

"Qi Yu Lord, the thief will flee to the east, General He Ruo has already tracked down, and the servant has returned to tell the Lord to send reinforcements quickly!"

Just as Li Tai pondered where to pursue, one of the soldiers who had previously followed Horodun's actions was led closer and said to the fork.

Li Tai was overjoyed when he heard this, and at this time, the rear cavalry had already arrived in this camp, so he should order Gao Le to lead five hundred elite horsemen, one man and two horses to continue the pursuit to the east, and at the same time give him the captured Xue Guyan banner, which can be used to confuse the public in some cases.

After a rush and battle, Li Tai was already tired at this time, but his spirit was still very high. When he walked into the tent of the enemy camp and saw the fragments of the wine urns and clay pots on the ground, he couldn't help laughing, as expected.

It was not until dawn and dawn that the enemy camp was initially cleared, and the biggest harvest was naturally the horses.

Yesterday these horses fled from place to place in fright, but they returned one after another after dawn, and in the early morning more than 2,000 horses were gathered again in the camp. As for the saddle bridle stirrups and other supporting items, three or four thousand pairs were also confiscated. More than 600 people were killed and wounded, and more than 500 were captured.

It can also be seen that this army is indeed an elite group, and in the chaotic and inferior situation last night, most of the enemy soldiers can still avoid the fate of being killed or captured, and this ability to save their lives is absolutely leveraged. If it weren't for the unreliable general Xue Guyan, Li Tai would inevitably have a hard and outstanding battle if he wanted to defeat this force.

As the rear chariot infantry also arrived at Jingu City, in order to prevent the defeated soldiers from reuniting and killing back here in the left vicinity, in addition to the men and horses that Gao Le's troops went to the east to chase and kill, Li Tai also sent several teams to pursue and suppress those defeated soldiers in the left vicinity, in order to eliminate as much of the remaining living force of this group as possible.

When Han Xiong led his troops into the camp in the second half of the night, Xue Guyan had already woken up, although he woke up, he was still drunk, his body was crooked, and it was difficult to put on armor to resist the enemy, so the soldiers in his tent first took advantage of the chaos to escort his people out of the camp and fled eastward, hoping to lead his troops back after he woke up.

The group arrived at the northeast corner of the old city of Luoyang, which was more than ten miles away, but they did not stay for long, and the several commanders who were assigned to attract the rout were gone, and in order to avoid being tracked by the enemy, they could only continue to flee eastward on their horses.

Although He Ruodun did not appear in the field of vision of the fleeing people in front, he had been closely chasing behind, and he was not alone, except for a pro-soldier who had been following his companions, there were nearly twenty people following behind.

These people are not the righteous soldiers of the township requisitioned by him nearby, but the scattered soldiers of the Eastern Army who have been incorporated all the way from last night to the present. These scattered soldiers were not coerced captives, but genuinely attached to the protégés of Horodun.

It may be a bit strange to say this, but in the troubled times, these soldiers already have a very strong complex of admiration. In the minds of some soldiers, this complex even outweighs loyalty to the regime. They don't care which side they work for, they just want to follow a strong lord.

With his ability to shoot and shoot arrows, he directly conquered these admirers on the battlefield, causing them to turn against him and hunt down their original commanders.

When Gao Le and his party caught up, more than 30 soldiers had gathered around He Ruodun.

In the matter of chasing and killing Xue Guyan, these two or five boys were more enthusiastic and fanatical than the soldiers of the Western Army, and occasionally when they were chased and lost, they brainstormed and discussed the direction that Xue Guyan might go to and actively led the way, so that they re-tracked the target.

Because he was chased too closely, Xue Guyan had no time to stop appeasing the defeated troops, so he could only flee all the way to the northeast. In this way, he fled all the way for most of the day, and the mounts under his crotch were killed twice, and the river bridge was finally vaguely in sight, and there were only a few personal soldiers left beside him.

"As long as you enter the city, hold on to the city and hold ......"

Looking at the southern city of Heyang on the bank of the river ahead, a tired soldier muttered.

However, after Xue Guyan heard this, he shook his head and said: "The soldiers and horses in the city are all lost in the south, and there are only a few thousand soldiers left today, how can they stop the thieves, tigers and wolves?" Entering the city is a desperate situation, quickly go north to ask for reinforcements and then lead troops back to take revenge! ”

Most of the soldiers who stayed in the southern city of Heyang were Hebei Han'er, Xue Guyan only served as a slave envoy every day, and now the army was defeated and poor, and he didn't believe that these Han'er soldiers could resist the Western army that even he was defeated, so he didn't mean to return to the city to defend at all, but rushed directly to the river bridge and continued to flee north.

"The dog thief escapes quickly!"

Seeing Xue Guyan and his party rushing to the north on the river bridge from a distance, He Ruodun sighed with a regretful face, and then looked at the southern city of Heyang, which was crowded with people a few miles away, and then looked at the flag carried by Gao Le and his party, and then smiled happily: "Together, when I and Liangbi collect this nest of thieves!" ”
