    Jia Wuben looked at Zhang Xutuo dying in the formation and wished he could take his own life.  But he remembered Zhang Xutuo's instructions. At this time, the morale of the Wagang army was high. If they continued to fight, the entire Bafeng camp would inevitably be annihilated.  The best option for now is to retreat.

    Jia Wuben tearfully gave the order to retreat.

    "General Jia, we don't care about the Ming Dynasty anymore!"

    A group of soldiers from the Eight Wind Camp burst into tears.

    Jia Wuben burst into tears, but his reason made him retreat south.

    At this time, Luo Shixin, who was in the front army, also came with his army, and the two sides happened to meet each other.

    When Luo Shixin heard the news that Zhang Xutuo was trapped, he immediately led his troops to retreat.  However, the Wagang army held on to his troops. As soon as Luo Shixin broke out of the encirclement, he encountered Huang Junhan's ambush behind him.

    Cheng Yaojin and Niu Jinda were trapped in one place by the Wagang Army and could not break out, so they surrendered to the Wagang Army.

    And Luo Shixin broke out of the siege and finally met Jia Wuben.

    Hearing that Zhang Xutuo died in battle, Luo Shixin's eyes were red and tears were streaming down his face. He roared and wanted to protect Zhang Xutuo, but Jia Wuben stopped him.

    "Your adoptive father wants you to take these Qijun soldiers home! I am seriously injured and I don't know how long I can last. If you die again, what will they do?"

    Luo Shixin roared in a low voice, like the roar of an animal, but ultimately failed to go forward.

    So Luo Shixin took the lead, and the Bafeng camp broke out south.

    Along the way, General Fan Hu, Jia Wuben's son Jia Runfu, Tang Wanren's brother Tang Wanche and others caught up with the team.

    Jia Wuben then ordered the troops and horses of the three armies on the hour. More than half of the entire army was lost, with only more than 5,000 people left.  So the army went to Liangjun.  At this time, the soldiers of Bafeng Camp no longer trusted the Xingyang armies.

    On the way to break out of the siege, the soldiers could not care about anything else.  When they arrived at Junyi County, Liang County, they were out of danger and the soldiers were able to cry bitterly.  Zhang Xutuo loved his soldiers as his sons, so the generals were willing to follow him in expeditions east and west. Even though Zhang Xutuo repeatedly broke his promise, all the generals had no regrets.

    At this time, Zhang Xutuo died for his country, and the soldiers cried day and night for several days.

    With his sick body in his arms, Jia Wuben paid his last respects to Zhang Xutuo.

    When the Bafeng Battalion broke out, the Wagang Army suffered heavy losses and was unable to pursue them.  Of course, they didn't care about the Bafeng camp that broke out.

    But today¡¯s killing of Zhang Xutuo really made everyone admire Li Mi.  To the bandits in Henan, Zhang Xutuo was a god-like figure, and his death today always made them feel relieved.

    On the battlefield, although the war is basically over, there are still remaining soldiers.

    These people were all wounded soldiers of the Bafeng Camp. They could not break out and were all captured.  Upon hearing the news that Zhang Xutuo had died in battle, these people all cried out in pain.  More people were lying on the ground mourning, and the sound could be heard everywhere.

    Looking at this scene, even Li Mi admired Zhang Xutuo's military morale.

    At this time, a group of soldiers pushed a general who was tied up and covered in blood. It was Tang Wanren, the general of Bafeng Camp.

    During the melee, Tang Wanren was surrounded by the Wagang Legion.  Of course, the situation was chaotic and no one bothered to rescue him.  Everyone fought until they were exhausted, and Tang Wanren was captured by mistake.

    Seeing that he was a general, the Wagang army rushed to push him to receive the reward.

    Tang Wanren was not aware of Zhang Xutuo's death before. When he saw Zhang Xutuo's head, he was shocked and couldn't help but kneel down in pain.

    "The Duke was upright during his life, and died as a god. I, Tang Wanren, was originally a villain. I was recognized by the Duke in the army and placed him above the officials. Over the past few years, I have expressed my regrets and coldness, undressed and pushed food. The Duke's  The kindness can be said to be extremely generous. Although there are still people who love you more than others, the one who respects you and me is only the public. Today, you sacrificed your life for the country, so I dare not live out of my mind and secretly live after your death!"

    When everyone heard this, they all covered their tears and sobbed.

    Li Mi also sighed that Tang Wanren was a loyal man, so he personally persuaded Tang Wanren to surrender.

    Tang Wanren said: "Zhang Gong treated me with kindness and courtesy. He originally expected me to share hardships and share sorrows with him. Unexpectedly, something happened. Now he was killed by others, and his body was wrapped in horse leather. This can be regarded as the name of Zhang Gong's loyalty. I just wanted to  His body was exposed on the battlefield, and where are his bones unknown? I am one of his former subordinates, and I feel really sad. If Mr. Li could be so kind and righteous as to bury Mr. Zhang, I, Tang Wanren, will wear a grass ring in my next life and I will definitely repay Mr. Li for his kindness."

    In order to win his heart, Li Mi agreed to the matter and had Zhang Xutuo's body found, his head sewn up and buried outside Dahai Temple.  He also asked people to prepare pig and sheep sacrifices and sacrificed them himself.

    On that day, Tang Wanren, with his head wrapped in a linen scarf and filial piety, mourned for Zhang Xutuo.

    Tang Wanren thought of his old love, chattering and crying.  After Zhang Xutuo was buried, Tang Wanren drew his sword and said loudly:"My lord, you are a god and a spirit. I couldn't die together in front of the battle the day before yesterday. Today I will follow you underground!" So he flashed his sword and killed himself with the sword.

    Just hearing the knife hit the ground, Tang Wanren fell straight back with a crash.  When everyone saw it, they immediately stepped forward, and Tang Wanren's blood spurted out all over the ground.

    Tang Wanren committed suicide in front of him, which really shocked Li Mi.

    Such a loyal person hates not getting what he deserves.  So Li Mi asked people to quickly prepare a coffin for the funeral, and buried Tang Wanren next to Zhang Xutuo.

    Zhang Xutuo's death shocked the entire Henan counties.  He almost single-handedly stabilized the situation in Henan. Now that he is dead, the situation in Henan immediately collapsed, and bandits from all over the country swarmed again.

    Officials from all over Henan, who had been suppressed by Zhang Xutuo, all looked forward to his defeat.  But he was really defeated and died, and everyone was in panic all day long.  Even Zhang Xutuo is dead, how can we pacify these bandits?

    When Yang Guang, who was far away in Jiangdu, heard about Zhang Xutuo's deeds, he hid his face and shed tears for Zhang Xutuo.

    So Yang Guang issued an edict to posthumously confer Zhang Xutuo the title of Jin Ziguanglu doctor and the prefect of Xingyang County, and also ordered his son Zhang Yuanbei to be the general of Huyalang and the commander-in-chief of his father's army.

    And Yang Tong, the king of Yue in Luoyang, also ordered Pei Renji, the doctor of Zuo Guanglu, to be the ambassador of Henan Province to appease the people and move to Hulao Pass.

    At this time, Jia Wuben was in Junyi and was already dying.  He was seriously injured and his days were numbered.

    After hearing that the imperial court asked Pei Renji to lead the army, he said to Luo Shixin: "The greatest wish of the Ming Dynasty during his lifetime was to bring all the soldiers home. If we return to Pei Renji's command now, I am afraid that we will always be in Xingyang to suppress bandits, and we will never return home in this life."  Possibly. After my death, you can lead your troops back to Qi County and guard your hometown.

    "You tell Yuan Bei that if Qi County can be defended, then defend it. If Qi County cannot be defended, you can lead your troops to withdraw to the north of the Yellow River and join Duke Wei. When the time comes, just tell Duke Zhang and my names."

    More than ten years ago, in Wuzhou, Jiangnan, Duke Zhang and I saved Duke Wei¡¯s life.  Duke Wei is a man who values ??affection and righteousness, and is courteous to virtuous officials. You and everyone else will have a good future when they get there.  "

    Luo Shixin tearfully agreed to Jia Wuben.

    Soon after, Jia Wuben died in Junyi.

    At this time, the people who sent orders from Dongdu had arrived in Liang County.  After discussing with Fan Hu, Jia Runfu and others, Luo Shixin decided not to accept the imperial edict from the Eastern Capital, but to return to Qi County.

    The Bafeng Camp was actually just a militia formed by Zhang Xutuo, not even a regular army. The court had no choice but to let an elite group disperse.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
