    Zhou Xie was defeated and did not buy enough time for Zhu Xie.  At this time, Zhu Xie had no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth. More than 100,000 troops were crowded inside and outside Maopu Port, with nowhere to escape.

    As for field battles, Zhu Xie gave up this plan after hearing that the Sui army had large groups of cavalry. The troops under his command were not well-trained soldiers and could defeat cavalry with foot.  If this rabble were allowed to fight against the cavalry, it would not take long for them to collapse.  At the gate of Wuzhou City, Huang Mingyuan only used three thousand cavalry to annihilate his master Xie Yi's tens of thousands of troops like chopping melons and vegetables. This was the most painful lesson.

    Seeing that the Sui army was approaching, Zhu Xie's general Hou Wenshi suggested that Zhu Xie abandon the Maopu camp and withdraw the entire army to Baitu Mountain (now Hengshan, Zhenjiang City, Jiangsu Province).

    Although the altitude of White Rabbit Mountain is only a few hundred feet, it can only be regarded as a hill. However, by retreating to White Rabbit Mountain, they can be at an angle with Yanling City, and at the same time, they can use the rugged terrain of the mountain to delay the Sui army.

    Zhu Xie had no other choice but to agree to this suggestion.

    In order to delay the Sui army, Zhu Xie ordered people to set fire to the Maopu camp, burning everything they could to buy as much time as possible.  Now the only thing that can stop the Sui army is water and fire.

    At this time, there were tens of thousands of people under Zhu Xie's command. Zhu Xie didn't care whether he could retreat to White Rabbit Mountain by tens of thousands, so he could only try his best to preserve his strength.

    At this time, if Zhu Xie wanted to win, he could only rely on the Sui army to make mistakes.  But the person facing them was not an unknown person, but the battle-hardened Tu Wanxu, which also destined them to be unable to turn defeat into victory.

    But the Sui army on the opposite side won the victory, but Tu Wanxu was calm. If such thieves could not win again, then he would have no choice but to die.  The generals under his command have nothing to be proud of. Under their horse hooves and butcher knives, they are just a group of farmers holding hoes. There is nothing to be proud of.

    Seeing that the Maopu campfire started and the entire south bank was full of fire, Tu Wanxu said after hearing this: "This bandit leader is very decisive."

    But Tu Wanxu still looked down upon the other party. Bandits are bandits and must be eliminated.

    At this time, Zhu Xie also fled to White Rabbit Mountain. White Rabbit Mountain runs east-west. Due to the shape of the mountain, the east and west peaks run from north to south, but the middle peak stands like a tripod.  The southern foot of Baitu Mountain forms a concave shape, so it is called "Baitu Mountain Concave".  Zhu Xie ordered Hou Wenshi to lead his troops to camp in the valley of Baitu Mountain, while he climbed up to Baitu Mountain.  The two sides formed an array, one high and one low.

    At this point in the fight, Zhu Xie didn¡¯t even know how many troops he still had on hand, so he had to barely hold on.

    The Sui army's forward cavalry rushed to the foot of White Rabbit Mountain, only to see bandits all over the mountains and plains, no one knew how many there were.  The cavalry feigned an attack and the terrain was unfavorable.

    After Tu Wanxu heard the report from the front army, he ordered the cavalry to stop attacking and not even to surround White Rabbit Mountain.  White Rabbit Mountain is just a small mountain, which is not conducive to holding on. The bandits cannot stand on the mountain in any case.  The opponent's general is not an ordinary pawn. It would be bad if he is forced too hard and is trapped and still fighting.

    Tu Wanxu also ordered his subordinates to take the opportunity to annihilate the remaining soldiers everywhere, while the main force was to the west of Baitu Mountain to observe the rebels and use calm to stop them.

    Zhu Xie breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the Sui army had stopped attacking and turned to clear out the small group of remaining soldiers.  He was defeated so miserably, and relying solely on White Rabbit Mountain, he really didn't have much confidence to fight.

    Zhu Xie immediately prepared to move to Yanling City.  Everything is fake now, only the city wall defense is real.  After retreating into Yanling City, relying on the large number of troops, they could barely fight the Sui army.

    But soon, another thunderbolt shook Zhu Xie and he almost fell down, and Yanling City was lost.

    It turns out that Tu Wanxu divided his troops into two groups. In addition to his attack on the Maopu camp, Yu Juluo also led 6,000 troops to attack Yanling City.  At this time, Liu Yuanjin and Zhu Xie's troops were all in the Maopu camp, and there were not many troops in Yanling City as a stronghold.

    In fact, because the Maopu Camp was in front, the two of them never thought that the Sui army would cross the Maopu Camp and sneak attack Yanling City.

    After Yu Juluo led the main force to cross the river, he groped along the coast to the foot of Yanling City, and took the opportunity to attack the city.  The defenders in the city were unprepared, and Yu Juluo charged, broke through the city gate, and killed them in.

    The bandits in the city were unable to stop the enemy and were quickly cleared by the Sui army.

    Yu Juluo was lying in ambush in the city, waiting for the bandits to return.

    At this time, Liu Yuanjin and Zhuge Yin deceived Zhu Xie. They also knew that Zhu Xie might not be able to stop the Sui army for too long, so they rushed to Yanling City desperately.

    The rebels were also inexperienced, so they arrived at Yanling City in a panic, and then entered the city in confusion.  But Yu Juluo waited for the bandits to enter the city, and suddenly rushed out of the city, immediately confusing the bandits crowding at the city gate.

    Although Yu Juluo is getting older and fought hard all night last night, he still does not change his brave appearance, carrying a long spear to go to the toilet??Into the bandits.  It swings its long spear, reaping human lives one after another, like a god of death.

    Faced with Yu Juluo's ambush, neither Liu Yuanjin nor Zhuge Yin knew how to respond. They had to withdraw their troops in a hurry and prepare to return to the Maopu camp again.

    Here we can see why many rebel forces with hundreds of thousands of troops are always wiped out. It is because the command ability of their commanders cannot meet the number of troops. That is, they simply do not know how to command so many people, so the number becomes larger and larger.  The more they are, the more they become a burden.  When encountering elite officers and soldiers, it is easy to be defeated by the opponent in one blow.

    Liu Yuanjin and Zhuge Yin went east again and met Zhu Xie at White Rabbit Mountain.  The two looked at each other, speechless.  This battle was fought so cowardly, and they were defeated inexplicably, as if there were Sui armies on all sides, and there was really no way to go to heaven or earth.

    At this time, Zhu Xie suggested: "The Sui army is powerful, and our army has completely fallen into the Sui army's dragnet. Instead of fighting with the Sui army again and being led by the other side, we should go south along the canal and retreat to Qu'a."  city."

    Liu Yuanjin knew that once he returned to Qu'a, the strength of both sides would wax and wane. The dominance of the Sui army would probably fall into Zhu Xie's hands. However, after today's defeat, he had no other choice but to retreat.

    Zhu Xie decided to reorganize his troops at White Rabbit Mountain, and then mobilize elites from each army to serve as the vanguard and attack southward.  The rest of the troops were divided into three. Liu Yuanjin, Zhu Xie, and Zhuge Yin took one group, each performing their own duties, and broke out to the south.  Encountering the Sui army along the way, the three armies supported each other and never wasted a fight.

    At this time, Zhu Xie was talking eloquently, and everyone seemed to have gained some confidence when they looked at him.

    Zhu Xie¡¯s plan seemed to have no problem. Liu Yuanjin, who had no choice but to agree, had no choice but to agree.  With Zhu Xie's general Zhang Guanzhi as the vanguard, his army concentrated its elite troops and broke through the siege.

    After hearing the inquiry, Tu Wanxu immediately led his army to stop him and strangled Zhang Guanzhi. The two sides fought fiercely for a whole day.  Zhang Guanzhi was so brave that he refused to retreat and led his troops to charge several times.  In a hurry, Tu Wanxu was unable to defeat the enemy, so he had to let Liu Yuanjin and Zhu Xie lead their troops to escape.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
