On the battlefield, the Liang army launched a fierce attack with great momentum. The Western Army Division was ashamed. The Liang army's heavy cavalry rushed straight into the central army of the Western Army. The Western Army's flag was behind the Great Banner, causing the Western Army to retreat and defeat.

In the wilderness west of Wuchang, more than 100,000 infantry and cavalry of the Western Army fled west in a hurry.

Zhang Xianzhong failed to wait for Sun Kewang to arrive. The Western Army lasted for most of the day and finally evacuated and suffered failure.

At this time, the Western Army had no intention of fighting, so they left the Liang army soldiers and turned around and ran away. However, the Liang army soldiers were very morale and rushed forward to chase the Western Army.

More than 100,000 Western Army, horse army, and infantry fled in a mixed manner. Zhang Xianzhong watched the Western Army soldiers run away in scattered scattered, and he couldn't help but feel heartbroken and regretful.

Many heroes over the ages have suffered many setbacks in the early stage and were able to stand up again with unyielding efforts and hard work, but when they were about to reach their peak and failed in one fell swoop, they might never recover from it, and even died of worries and anger.

For example, Yuan Shao and Liu Bei, one of them was defeated by Guandu, and they were in a slump. In the end, they were sick, and the other one of them was defeated by Yiling, and they were shameless to return to Chengdu and died of illness in Baidi City.

Both of them were at the time of personal subversion, suffered setbacks, and lost their indomitable will.

Like Prime Minister Cao, after the defeat of Chibi, there are only a few people who still have no ambitions.

At this time, Zhang Xianzhong saw Manye's defeated army and fled while wailing his horse, shouting in anger: "It hurts so much! Yiling's defeat! Yiling's defeat!"

But at this time, it was too late for Zhang Xianzhong to regret it. More than 100,000 tough Western Army had lost its courage and completely collapsed under the pursuit of Liang army.

At this time, when Zhang Xianzhong was defeated, Sun Kewang led a large army and was still attacking the Liang army with the intention of breaking through the Liang army's obstruction.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Western Army soldiers was good, their equipment was much worse than that of the Liang Army.

They were able to defend with the help of city walls and could resist the Liang army. The disadvantages of equipment during field battles were exposed.

During the siege, the Liang army's real elite troops did not go to fight.

This is light cavalry, heavy cavalry, heavy infantry, and Shenji Camp is not suitable for climbing and siege. Second, in order to attract Zhang Xianzhong to leave the solid camp, Gao Huan deliberately hides his weaknesses and did not use these elite soldiers in the early stage.

At this time, Sun Kewang was commanding the Western Army, launching wave after wave of attack, fighting fiercely with the Liang army. A general suddenly shouted loudly: "Listen to your superiors! The shouts of killing are heading west!"

Sun Kewang, who was commanding the battle, felt a stern when he heard the words. When he heard them carefully, he immediately found that the shouts of killing in the west were getting farther and farther away.

In an instant, Sun Kewang's expression changed drastically, and his face turned pale.

If Zhang Xianzhong wins, his voice will only get closer and closer, but now the voice is getting farther and farther away, which means that Zhang Xianzhong will retreat again.

"It's over!" Sun Kewang was struck by lightning and stood there on the spot.

"Look at your highness!" At this time, the general pointed to the west and reminded him again.

Sun Kewang looked at it and was immediately shocked. A team of Liang cavalry was galloping from the west, intending to bypass the battlefield and flank the Western Army.

"Retreat!" Sun Kewang pulled out the reins of the horse. Without any hesitation, he turned his horse's head and ran back.

To the north of the Western Army is the Yangtze River, to the west, the Liang army's infantry is blocking it, and to the south, it will run into the surrounding cavalry, so Sun Kewang can only escape back to Wuchang.

The Western Army, which was attacking the Liang army, saw Sun Kewang running away, immediately evacuated to Wuchang. The Liang army took the opportunity to cover up and chased the Western Army to fight towards Wuchang.

At dusk, the battlefield in the western suburbs of Wuchang gradually returned to peace.

The Liang army chased forty or fifty miles westward, met the Jinshui River, and met the Western Army that was responding to it, and stopped chasing.

The Western Army hid corpses for dozens of miles, and the men and horses were killed in battle and drowned tens of thousands, and continued to flee west overnight.

At this time, Gao Huan was standing on the battlefield. Looking around, the battlefield within a radius of dozens of miles was full of corpses of soldiers from both armies. The soldiers of Liang were appearing in it, confiscating spoils and cleaning the battlefield.

In this battle, Zhang Xianzhong must have hurt his vitality, just like Liu Bei in Shu, who suffered huge losses and was unable to advance eastward in a short period of time.

In this way, the threat from the upstream of Liang State was greatly reduced. Even if the Qing army, Beiming, and Zheng Zhilong attacked Liang State on the whole line, Liang State could still deal with it calmly.

Gao Huan looked around the battlefield and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

After this war, the external environment of Liang Kingdom will improve again and will not face tremendous pressure.

At this time, Xu Heihu, Hao Yaoqi and others were marching over and said excitedly: "King, Zhang Xianzhong retreated west and fled to Jiayu County. Do you continue to pursue me?"

"Chasing! Why not chase! It is better to chase the remaining brave men!" Gao Huan laughed loudly: "But Zhang Xianzhong was defeated, he would definitely not stick to Jiayu, and he would escape to Jingzhou. Xu Heihu!"

"I'm here!" Xu Heihu immediately clasped his fists.

Gao Huan ordered in a deep voice: "You lead 30,000 people and follow Zhang Xianzhong westward. Taking advantage of Zhang Xianzhong's escape and hunting along the river, at least occupy Yuezhou City!"

Xu Heihu quickly saluted and responded loudly: "I obey the order!"

Gao Huan waved his hand, and Xu Heihu pulled out the reins of the horse and led his troops to continue westward.

At this time, Gao Huan said to Zhou Yanru and Song Xianke again: "Two gentlemen, immediately order Yuan Zongdi to march into Changsha. This time I will take advantage of Zhang Xianzhong's great defeat to seize the land east of the Xiangjiang River. If conditions permit, I will go further, take Jingzhou and seize all Chu."

Zhou Yanru and Song Xiance looked excited and bowed solemnly, "I will accept the order!"

At this time, a team of cavalry rushed from the east, slammed the reins in front of Gao Huan, and reported loudly: "Your Majesty, Sun Kewang fled back to Wuchang!"

Gao Huan sneered when he heard the words and laughed loudly: "It's okay, I just beat the dog in the water! I will send an order to leave a group of people to sweep the battlefield and detain the prisoners. The rest of the people will go back to Wuchang with me to deal with Sun Kewang!"

In Wuchang City, Sun Kewang lost more than 10,000 troops and rushed back to the city in a hurry.

At this time, a group of Western generals gathered together, all of whom were anxious.

"Your Majesty is defeated, and Wuchang has become an isolated city."

"Gao Huan will soon return to Wuchang. Now that the army's morale is completely declining, how can it still be defended?"

"Your Highness, what should I do?"

Many Western Army generals were talking nonsense. The more they spoke, the darker Sun Kewang's face became.

For a moment, Sun Kewang was upset by their quarrels and suddenly roared: "It's all gone! Let the Lone King be quiet!"

Many generals looked at each other, Bai Wenxuan wanted to speak but stopped, but he sighed and went out with many soldiers.

As soon as everyone left, Sun Kewang couldn't help but sigh to the sky, and was speechless for a long time, "God's will!"

At this time, he sat for a while and suddenly began to search around the room, as if looking for something important.

"There is clearly a letter, why don't you see it?" Sun Kewang searched for a while, but didn't find it, and couldn't help but wonder.

Just when he thought he was missing, his eyes fell into the trash can on the side.

I was too crazy at the beginning, but now I think about it, the conditions given by Liang State are actually quite good.
