Cheng Mao did not dare to waste any more time and quickly retreated with his soldiers. As soon as he retreated, the soldiers under his command no longer had any combat effectiveness. They all retreated like a tide, and everyone's fighting spirit collapsed.
In fact, the soldiers under Cheng Mao's command completely collapsed after learning that their rations had been burned. Just because Cheng Mao made a big cake for his soldiers, saying that Linzi City was broken and allowed to plunder for three days.
This arrangement inspired the soldiers.
It made all the soldiers fight with all their strength. But now, the army was ambushed. As soon as the army retreated, many people were already panicking and retreated in a panic.
This scene fell into Wang Qi¡¯s eyes, with a bright smile on his face.
This battle was won.
Wang Qi looked at Lu Shengqi and said: "General, the time for the decisive battle has come. Now we can fight with all our strength and kill!"
Lu Shengqi nodded and immediately gave the order.
All the soldiers under his command went to battle.
A crunch!
The city gate is open.
The army in the city rushed out in a mighty manner and rushed towards the officers and soldiers who started to retreat. At the same time, the three armies led by Zhu Youdao, Xu Hu, and Yu Jin had already surrounded them.
The entire officers and soldiers were surrounded.
There is no way out.
Seeing that the way back was cut off, Cheng Mao kept giving orders to break out. Unfortunately, many of the soldiers under his command had lost their combat effectiveness and were no longer able to fight, so many began to surrender.
Wave after wave of soldiers threw away their weapons and surrendered, and were constantly captured.
There were also many soldiers fleeing.
The whole army was in chaos.
When Cheng Mao saw this scene, his heart felt like a knife piercing his heart, and he even sighed in his heart.
Heaven will not help him!
In this battle, if he can defeat Linzi and then face the incoming bandits, he can hold Linzi. But at the moment, Cheng Mao's army was defeated and his retreat was cut off. There was no way to retreat.
Cheng Mao had no regrets in his heart. He is the commander-in-chief of the army. If he had led his army to retreat as soon as he got the news that the grain and grass were burned, and the news was spread back to Chang'an, he would definitely be captured and charged.
Now that we have failed in the first battle, we have no regrets.
Cheng Mao and his men kept breaking out and rushing out. It's a pity that no matter what, they can't get out, and they are already surrounded by many people.
"Liu Xun, where is Liu Xun?"
Cheng Mao shouted loudly.
Liu Xun is Cheng Mao¡¯s number one general and a veteran master-level master. With such people guarding you, you still have a chance to get out. However, Cheng Mao called Liu Xun not to kill him, but to take care of him.
He wanted Liu Xun to be killed and take care of his Cheng Mao's heirs.
"Commander, General Liu has taken it."
The general who followed him answered loudly.
Hearing this, Cheng Mao's heart sank, and his face became more solemn. He really didn't expect that the final result would be so tragic, with even a veteran master like Liu Xun being captured.
Cheng Mao simply stopped. He looked around him at the soldiers who were still fighting, and sighed inwardly.
Can¡¯t escape!
Being surrounded, it is impossible to escape.
Cheng Mao made a clanging sound and unsheathed his sword. He looked around at the soldiers around him and said: "I am the commander-in-chief. If I escape now, even if I return to the city, I will die. I am sorry for losing this battle." You, I¡¯ve harmed you.¡±
"You guys, surrender."
"No need to fight anymore."
After Cheng Mao finished speaking, he looked at the soldiers around him and the bright sun that rarely rose today, with a touch of nostalgia and nostalgia on his face.
It¡¯s a pity that I can¡¯t see it anymore.
Cheng Mao himself could not let himself become a prisoner. Because once he becomes a prisoner, the children in his family will definitely be affected. Cheng Mao exerted force on his hand, and the light of his sword flashed from his neck.
"Poof!"
??Dark red blood spurted out from his neck.
Cheng Mao's mouth was bleeding even more, and his body shook twice and was on the verge of collapse. But Cheng Mao's sword was on the ground, but it was hard to support his body from falling down.
Cheng Mao opened his mouth and said: "Shuai, yes, yes, I'm sorry for you"
Having said this, his hand holding the sword loosened, and his already shaky body fell to the ground with a plop.
A generation of heroic generals has died.
"Commander!"
When the surrounding generals saw this, many people shouted in sorrow.
Cheng Mao was in the army and followed the orders and prohibitions. He also ate the same food as the soldiers on weekdays. He never received special treatment or drank alcohol. He treated the soldiers with great care.
On weekdays, he cares about the soldiers' daily lives; after fighting on the battlefield, he comforts the injured soldiers one by one.
In the army, Cheng Mao was quite prestigious.
Now that Cheng Mao has been killed, the expressions on everyone's faces are full of grief.
"Commander, the general is following you."
Under Cheng Mao's command, there was a general who killed himself by wiping his neck with his sword.
"Commander, the end is coming."
"Commander, please wait for the last general."
"Commander,"
Every single soldier and general who was a direct descendant of Cheng Mao went to die without caring about anything else. This group of people refused to surrender and all died beside Cheng Mao.
On the other battlefields, there were many soldiers from the government side, constantly breaking through and sprinting.
Officers and soldiers were being killed one after another.
Countless more people knelt down and surrendered, no longer fighting.
Even though the army surrounded them, some people eventually escaped. On such a wide battlefield, it is impossible to block everyone's retreat. Being able to block the most important generals here is already the biggest gain.
Zhu Youdao, Yu Jin and Xu Hu had been fighting until the evening, when the fighting ended.
Then, count the losses.
After nightfall, it was almost early in the morning when all the results of this battle were counted.
All corpses on the battlefield were also disposed of.
Xu Hu and the three of them came to the camp together. After Xu Hu stood still, he, as the leader of the three, reported: "Commander, the number of officers and soldiers killed in this battle is as many as 18,000."
"There were more than 69,000 captured officers and soldiers, and more than 10,000 people escaped."
¡°There are too many enemies on the battlefield and it is impossible to capture them all.¡±
Xu Hu said: "The most important thing is that the enemy's commander-in-chief, Cheng Mao, committed suicide. All his direct generals also committed suicide together. In this battle, we won a complete victory."
"Okay, okay, okay!"
Lu Shengqi¡¯s face was filled with joy.
In order to defend the city in this battle, he lost nearly 8,000 troops, all of whom died while defending the city. But now that he heard the results of the battle, even Cheng Mao was dead, Lu Shengqi felt it was worth it.
Lu Shengqi said: "This battle is thanks to your timely assistance."
Xu Hu said: "This is what the general should do."
Zhu Youdao and Yu Jin also nodded in agreement, both of them agreed with Xu Hu's words.
Lu Shengqi praised Xu Hu and the others, and immediately ordered the soldiers to notify Wang Qilai. When the fighting ended in the evening, Wang Qi went directly to rest instead of waiting for news.
That is to say, Lu Shengqi, Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi are concerned about the war and have been waiting for news.
Not long after, Wang Qi came to the camp and saluted: "General!"
Lu Shengqi said: "Mr. Wang, the war is over. As for the officers and soldiers, Cheng Mao and his direct generals all committed suicide. In this battle, we killed more than 18,000 people and captured more than 69,000 people. The results were fruitful. We won this battle. What should we do next?"
Wang Qi was obviously more capable than Zhu Yumin and He Peiqi, so Lu Shengqi asked Wang Qi for his opinion. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com - Didn't finish reading?
