The melee in the south of the city ended in a complete victory for the French commander's army.

The time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people!

This is not at all pleasant.

Li Wuchang occupies the peace, and has the upper hand in the fight, and most people can even be said to be at ease.

In contrast, the elite of the court and a group of bandits under Zhang Zhihai were much more miserable, they were pressed and beaten throughout the whole process, and they couldn't figure out the direction at all.

If there is no way, then kill him, regardless of who is in front of him.

Zhang Zhihai didn't expect in advance that a group of bandits who looked like a rabble would play such an important role in this melee, and every mountain king was panicked and extremely sensitive, so he huddled together and killed each other with the elite of the imperial court.

This is the consequence of discord.

The lesson is not without its tragedy.

Of the dozen or so mountain kings, six were killed on the spot, some were killed by the elite of the imperial court, some were killed by the French army, and the other mountain kings escaped with the remnants.

Of the nearly 12,000 bandits, more than 9,000 were killed in battle, most of them died in the panic of cannibalism and the elite of the imperial court.

For the king of the mountain who survived, this time to take refuge in Zhang Zhihai is completely a sinkhole, not only did he not mix into the imaginary regular army of the imperial court, but he almost wiped out the whole army, which is really miserable.

It's never too late to make amends.

They immediately parted ways with Zhang Zhihai and fled to the east, hoping for a comeback.

Zhang Zhihai was too busy to take care of himself, and of course he couldn't continue to chase down the remaining bandits.

Of the nearly 20,000 elites in the imperial court, more than 8,000 were killed on the spot, accounting for about 40 percent of the total, and the remaining 60 percent were more or less suffering from internal and external injuries.

Li Wuchang's elite squad was still in pursuit, with Han Dazhi, Fat Xiong, Chen Lianbao, Nie Quan, Song Bei and others taking the lead.

A small detachment of hundreds of people, the goal is very clear, not to rush hard, only to chase and kill the rout, if Zhang Zhihai sent people to fight back, they will immediately retreat, without any hesitation.

Zhang Zhihai's large army will be left behind at any time, and once they fall behind, there is only a dead end, and there is no luck at all.

Zhang Zhihai had calmed down, and while organizing troops that could still fight to block the pursuit, he ordered the large army to continue to evacuate south.

There's no way around it.

Now I can only go to the junction of the three counties, and temporarily find the shelter of Wu Qinglun, the new leader of the Fangling Military Department, as long as I get there, it will be difficult to completely get rid of the pursuit of the elite team under Li Wuchang.

There is no other way out.

"Ahem......"

On the path, Zhang Zhihai, who was lying on the stretcher, coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale, and he obviously couldn't suppress the serious injury.

It should have been a long time ago, but the internal injury Dan helped him hold on.

It was Li Wuchang who invented the internal injury pill, and it was Li Wuchang who injured him, which has to be said to be a kind of irony.

"General, how are you?"

Xu Moushi and the two guards hurriedly stepped forward to check, they were all worried in their hearts, if Zhang Zhihai fell directly at this moment, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"I can't die for a while...... Phew......"

Zhang Zhihai spit out the blood in his mouth, and his stuffy chest was much smoother, but the major meridians were still in pain, the real qi was chaotic, and the whole body was burning, which was caused by Li Wuchang's Cangyan Jue's true strength, and he was unable to resolve it so far.

This level of injury requires time to recuperate, and the slightest carelessness will cause endless trouble, not only will there be no chance of martial arts getting close, but also the root of the disease that will not be cured for a lifetime.

It is not uncommon for the injury to be reckless, and to make the injury worse.

To be honest, Zhang Zhihai is a little apprehensive when he thinks of the situation on the battlefield now.

He was hit by Li Wuchang's reckless blade several times with all his might, and once if it wasn't for one of his personal guards, his chest would have been pierced.

Another time, Li Wuchang flashed to his back and made a gold-breaking shot, and it was also a personal guard who hit it in time, Zhang Zhihai looked back and found that the guard was directly split into several pieces, and the scattered limbs burst out of the blood mist, which was terrifying and abnormal.

More than 20 guards with good strength and who were not afraid of death were almost slashed by Li Wuchangdong.

Among them are the masters of his Zhang family, as well as the battlefield elites who have followed him for many years.

Zhang Zhihai is an old fritter on the battlefield, he is used to life and death, even if he can't be called a person with a heart like stone, he is not far away, but when he sees so many people close to him dying in front of him, he still can't help but feel sad.

Xu Moushi and the guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Zhang Zhihai's face gradually recover.

"General, do you want to rest for a while?" Xu Moushi suggested.

"No!"

Zhang Zhihai waved his hand, looked at Vice General Su, and asked, "Are all the people together?"

Naturally, he asked the guerrilla generals under his command.

Vice General Su coughed lightly and replied: "General, Mu Tianfeng, Lin Zheng, Liu Xuan, and Huang Ni are entangled with Lu Xifa's pursuit team in the rear, and everyone else is maintaining order in the team. ”

After a pause, his face became a little embarrassed, and he continued: "It's just ......"

Zhang Zhihai's heart was shocked, "Just what?"

Vice General Su said: "It's just that Guo Yunlei and Liu Qi are separated......"

Zhang Zhihai frowned and asked, "Did you get separated, or did you die in battle?"

Guo Yunlei is still second, if Liu Qi is killed in battle, then the matter is really big.

Liu Qizheng's identity is sensitive, he is not only the person Lu Xuandong is optimistic about, he said hello in advance, and the most important thing is that Liu Qizheng's wife is also the second son of the general Liu Jingming.

Since Lu Yuanke was injured by Ye Erxin, the number one Khitan master in Liaodong, the Khitans were handed over to Zhou Sheng and Liu Jingming.

Zhou Sheng has been stubbornly defending Anle, while Liu Jingming has now retreated to the area of Beiping County and started a guerrilla war with the Khitans.

Although the war was unfavorable, the saint attached great importance to Liu Jingming, and all kinds of rewards were not a problem.

In fact, Liu Jingming has done quite well, and if he is a different person, he may not be as stable as him.

If Liu Qi died at this moment, Liu Jingming would be affected a little.

Of course, Vice General Su knew the truth, and hurriedly replied: "I didn't die in battle, I just got separated, at the fork in the road before, I was beaten by Han Dazhi and others, so I got separated, but there are still many people under them, and there are many generals to protect them, so the safety problem should not be big."

Moreover, they all know the policy they have set before, and they will definitely converge under the hands of Wu Taishou. ”

Zhang Zhihai snorted, and then said to himself: "Han Dazhi, the son of Han Shangshu, Li Wuchang, the son of the commander of the Janissary Guard...... Hmph!"

It is no secret that Han Dazhi and Li Wuchang have a very good personal relationship.

If there was no Han Dazhi to pull the strings, Li Wuchang would definitely not have been so smoothly brought the Qinghuo Society under his command, and Fang Ling might be a different pattern.

What's even more infuriating is that both of them are the sons of court bigwigs.

The son rebelled, and the father was still as stable as Mount Tai in the court, but instead of suffering the slightest blow, the emperor trusted him even more.

What the fuck is going on?

Xu Moushi heard Zhang Zhihai change "Lu Xifa" to "Li Wuchang", and mentioned Han Guang and Li Lingwu, so he naturally understood the meaning contained in Zhang Zhihai's tone.

"General, it's good to say these things in private...... In the future, I hope to be cautious!" Xu Moushi persuaded in a low voice.

Zhang Zhihai nodded slightly, but his expression was still so gloomy.
