Chu Xunyu led his troops to launch the eighth breakthrough at this time, this time, Chu Xunyu changed his strategy again, because his own troops suffered extremely heavy losses, more than 8,000 cavalry troops and 300 monks, now only more than 4,000 people and more than 120 cultivators can fight, more than half of them died, this is the second day, all around, the sky and the earth are full of enemies, Chu Xunyu can feel it, this time, the Yuanmeng army came with the consciousness of a decisive battle of life and death, and there is no purpose to even repel it, only "kill them all" is their only pursuit.

The surrounding Yuan soldiers attacked, and there were shouts of killing and horse hooves everywhere, Chu Xunyu decided to rush out this time, so he adjusted the formation, let all the cultivators ride horses as the vanguard, and each monk used his strongest means to protect himself, and then released a large amount of gunsmoke and beacon fire to obstruct the sight of the Yuan Meng mage in the air, and launched a charge with the advantage of the cultivator's body, leaving the soldiers to carry the wounded in the middle of the team, and finally Chu Xunyu's adjutant "Liu Yu" was responsible for leading the people to break off.

"Liu Yu" is Chu Xunyu's fifth lieutenant, and the last one to die in battle, this young man from the Qingcheng faction is full of blood, swearing to drive out the Tartars and recover Shenzhou, this time with a thousand cavalry and thirty cultivators to cut off the Yuan army pursuing in the rear. Chu Xunyu followed the practice of Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu King Kong, to "break the cauldron and sink the boat", and before breaking through, he abandoned all his baggage, only brought the necessary things, and traveled lightly, just to make the speed run faster.

This time without the help of mortal soldiers, more than 700 Han cultivators faced 300,000 yuan Mongolian cavalry and more than 1,000 Yuan Meng mages fought a singing and crying battle, under the suggestion of shocking the water, they gave up the usual strategy of attacking the fortified fortification, and replaced it with the most favorable guerrilla warfare on the vast grassland, more than 700 people were divided into seven squads, and took turns to attack from different directions, and implemented the "run after fighting" The purpose is to buy time for Sun Mengxuan to go north to rescue Xu Da's department.

The whole battle is bound to be tragic, the process is extremely cruel, and the ending is destined to be tragic. In the early days of the battle, the Yuanmeng army was once beaten and could not find the north, I don't know how many enemies there are, and I don't know in what direction, I only feel that there are enemies everywhere in all directions, and I don't know the southeast and northwest, but soon, in just five or six days, the troops found their direction, and with the help of a large number of Yuanmeng mages, they began to hunt and kill the surrounding traveler army, and the Han monks were counterattacked overwhelmingly, until the ninth day, all gathered in the "Teng'er Mountain" In the area, at this time the number of people left less than 500, there are many wounded, and finally by virtue of the terrain, began a stubborn battle, on the 15th, the position was captured, the whole army was annihilated, none of the 700 monks retreated, surrendered, escaped, Kong said Chengren, Meng said to take righteousness, truly realized the idea of killing Shengren, fought to the last soldier, successfully delayed for 15 days.

During this period, the entire land of Shenzhou was urgently mobilized at this moment, Kunlun, Shushan, The three factions of the evil self sect joined forces to issue a convening order again, calling on more monks to take the righteousness of the clan as the priority, go out of the house, take weapons to participate in this resistance battle on the grassland, when they were fighting on the grassland, they have recruited the second batch of reinforcements, Kunlun Si Tianwei organized 800 people and set off in a mighty way, along the way converged with the Shu Mountain Broken Wind Elder led 400 Shu Mountain monks to carry a large number of medicines into the desert and rushed to the grassland, as a result, they inevitably encountered the obstacles of the Yuanmeng army along the way, coupled with the unfamiliar terrain and slow march, more than 300 monks of the Evil Self Sect came to help, and they must rush to the grassland while fighting。

The other monks on the land of Shenzhou all rushed to Beiping, joined the mortal army that came from all over the surrounding area, and integrated under the command of the veteran soldier "Bai Maoguo" and the famous general Liao Yongzhong, preparing to concentrate their forces from Beiping City to rescue Xu Da. Starting from Juyong Pass, people do not take off their armor, horses do not take off their saddles, all the way to the stars and the moon, starry night, across the Great Wall, over the endless mountains, deep into the depths of the grassland, all the way to the east, directly to the rear of the Yuanmeng encirclement army.

On the sixteenth, Chu Xunyu broke through successfully and finally returned to Xu Da's army, but there were less than 2,000 people left under his command, more than 80 cultivators, most of whom were wounded, more than 6,000 people and hundreds of cultivators were killed in the battle, Chu Xunyu himself was wounded in more than 20 places, his face was hanging by a thread, and he was rescued by Ghost Langzhong, and the 1,000 and 30 monks led by the deputy general Liu Yu finally only survived, and all the others died in battle.

On the 17th, Feng Sheng and Li Yongzhong's left and right forces successfully merged with Xu Dazhong's army at a huge price, and the casualties under Xu Da's command had exceeded 10,000 at this time, becoming the most deadly battle in the history of the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

On the 19th, the reinforcements of Beiping City set off, just entered the grassland and met the enemy interception troops, the two sides were glued, almost white-hot battle, the Yuanmeng encirclement army was determined to die and not let the Ming army pass, the Ming army was also determined to die must break through, the two sides had a tragic hand-to-hand combat, a day and night, both sides were killed and wounded more than 6,000 people, the entire grassland was full of corpses and scorched smell, Liao Yongzhong took the lead, personally killed more than 40 people before he was injured and fell to the ground, was rescued back to the big tent to recuperate, and the injuries were not hindered.

On the 20th, Sun Meng's reinforcements finally arrived, launched a fierce attack from behind the Yuanmeng encircling army, attacked the enemy in turn with wheel warfare offensive detachments, day and night, the Yuanmeng army swore to fight to the death, Xu Da also led the crowd to break through, the two sides fought hard for five days, and finally met the division, on this occasion, it was announced that the last large-scale counterattack of the Yuanmeng Dynasty finally ended in failure, and the veterans who had participated in the war for many years were killed and wounded, and since then, it was no longer possible to launch a large-scale military offensive, and at the same time, the Yuanmeng Dynasty, which ruled Shenzhou for 98 years, also officially announced its withdrawal from the historical stage, and the invincible Mongolian iron cavalry came to a gorgeous end。

Both sides of this battle were greatly injured, Xu Da was also wounded in 12 places, after returning to the dynasty, he took the blame and asked for beheading, because of his light exploits, the Ming army paid a heavy price of nearly 60,000 people and 5,000 cultivators, as the commander, it was difficult to escape the responsibility. But Liu Bowen interceded in the court, thinking that this war would break out sooner or later, it was just a matter of time, if the Yuanmeng army was ready to be caught off guard, then the casualties would be even more heavy, Xu Da was guilty, but it was also a merit, the hasty attack not only disrupted the deployment of the Yuanmeng army, but also annihilated the last elite force of the Yuanmeng Dynasty, which was also a "tragic achievement", hoping to be lightly released.

So Xu Da was sentenced to be demoted three levels in a row, continued to stay in Beiping, made meritorious service for his crimes, and prepared to go on the next Northern Expedition, if he recovered the north, he could be spared for this crime; if he failed, he would be beheaded to show the public. Xu Da gratefully took the order to go back, and since then, Xu Da has been in the north, and there has been no defeat, and he has been ashamed.

But the defeat in front of him, or the "tragic victory" is really unbearable, that day, after the reinforcements of the Xiuzhen world arrived, only more than 20 people were dying, including the shocking water, all the other monks were killed, and afterwards tens of thousands of cultivators' families all gathered in the "Comfort Garden" on the highest peak in Kunlun "Jade Girl Peak" Paying tribute to the relatives who died in the war, some holding the child who has just completed the moon, some holding the portrait of their husband, lighting the everlasting lamp, on the highest top of the ancestor of all roads in the world, in the Yingying firelight, crying, it is really sad to hear it, and the listener is crying, among which the price paid by the evil sect is the heaviest, a sect has killed a total of more than 500 people before and after, and successfully blocked the enemy army, fought to the last soldier, proud bones, Zhu Yuanzhang personally wrote "the proud bones of the country" The four characters were engraved into a plaque and sent to commend the great contribution made by the evil sect in the face of the righteousness of the famous clan.

In Yingtian, Zhu Yuanzhang also opened an altar to pay tribute to the fallen soldiers, and made a speech for a long time, encouraging the soldiers to work together and treat the outcome of this war correctly, which proved that the heart of the Yuan and Meng's Tatars did not die, and my Chinese men needed to eliminate the evil and completely drive them back to the northern grasslands. The good men who said the words were passionate, and countless mortals and cultivators came to the military camp, and they took the initiative to ask for war, and they must recover Shenzhou and drive out the Tartars.

This time, it is also the only large-scale battle of cultivators in history since the battle of the gods of Shang and Zhou, and a rare spark of friendship broke out between the two realms of Zheng and Demon, and it was unprecedented for the same goal and the same belief to come together, so the war was cruel, there was no victorious side at all, both sides paid a heavy price, a large number of families were displaced, children lost their parents, wives lost their husbands, The old man loses his child, whether it is in the mortal world or in the cultivator, what kind of suffering and pathos this life makes, as Sun Mengxuan said at the unarming ceremony: "We go to war for the sake of no war, not for the sake of victory or defeat, the ultimate goal and highest state of war is 'indisputable', and the establishment of a peaceful and prosperous world is what everyone wants." ”

Finally, as Sun Mengxuan said, may the world be stable for a long time, and there will be no more wars......
